Chapter 614 Strange Monkey
Qiao Jiajin frowned instantly and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
It sounded like a crowd cheering.
"Come on, you can't find anything after wearing iron shoes." Chen Junnan put the map in his pocket and looked in that direction. "Although I am very tired today, I have to go for it anyway."
"No problem." Qiao Jiajin said, "Just take a look at what kind of game the monkey kid here is playing. If it's not difficult, I'll help you."
The two looked around to make sure there was no one nearby, and then walked towards the alley.
What is strange is that there is no "zodiac sign" in the alley, only an old wooden door that opens inwards.
There are also a bunch of words written in red paint on the wall next to the wooden door.
The first thing that catches the eye is "Welcome".
Then comes "opening hours, sunrise to sunset."
The last line reads "Be harmonious and energetic, make money in and out".
"I'm sorry..." Qiao Jiajin felt a little strange, "Why does this guy look familiar to me?"
"What, have you ever been a monkey?" Chen Junnan looked at the door and asked casually.
"No, handsome boy!" Qiao Jiajin pointed to the last line, "I always feel like I've seen this line somewhere..."
The two stopped talking. Chen Junnan took a step toward the door and found that there was a curtain in the door. He stretched out his hand to open the curtain, and a strong smell of smoke came out.
The sound of a large group of people talking instantly reached their ears.
"My mom..." Chen Junnan and Qiao Jiajin looked at each other and felt that the situation was a bit strange. How did this look like a "prefecture-level" game?
The two walked in the door cautiously, and after passing through a long, narrow, smoke-filled corridor, the scene in front of them suddenly became clear.
In a huge room, there were many tables arranged in various directions. These tables were either scattered with dice or stacked with cards and mahjong, but at this time, the tables were all empty.
There was a large round table in the center of the room, and about ten men were gathered around the table watching something.
They were talking and laughing, holding cigarettes in their hands, and their carefree and happy state was incompatible with the situation in the "end of the world".
Chen Junnan and Qiao Jiajin looked at each other and slowly walked forward.
At this time, Qiao Jiajin finally remembered where he had seen this sentence.
It's those "gambling stalls" on the street.
Harmony and energy bring wealth.
This sentence seems to be addressed to all gamblers, but it is also what the casino owner thinks from his heart.
Firstly, they hope that no one will cause trouble, and secondly, they hope that everyone who enters here can bring them money.
The two came to the crowd and looked at the round table. A dozen men beside them glanced at the two men in surprise, and then continued to fix their eyes on the round table.
There were three people sitting around the round table, two of whom were sweating profusely, and opposite them was a "monkey" with a wrinkled face.
The monkey was short and fat, with a cigarette hanging sideways in his mouth. He looked lazy and contemptuous.
He put his hand on the dice cup in front of him and looked sideways at the two people on the left and right.
The two people on the left and right also stretched out their hands to protect their dice cups, looking a little nervous.
The three of them had dozens of "Tao" stones placed on the table, and they seemed to be gambling, and the bet was not small.
"It's my turn first." Dihou's hoarse voice came out.
The two men reached out to open the dice cup and took a cautious look inside.
The monkey thought for a while, then opened his dice cup and took a look at it, and then said: "Six to four."
Qiao Jiajin slowly frowned after hearing this. He always felt that everyone here was very familiar to him.
Gambling, this thing that once harmed my life.
He has been to the casino countless times and persuaded gamblers to stop playing countless times. But gamblers are like this. They always think they can win back their money in the next game, but the reality always makes them lose more and more miserably.
"What are you playing for?" Chen Junnan asked puzzledly.
"It's called "bragging", you should also call it "bragging"." Qiao Jiajin said, "Each person has five dice, and they need to take turns guessing the number of everyone's dice. For example, "six fours" refers to everyone's dice. There are six "four points" in total. If you believe what the person above said, you can continue to shout the numbers. If you don't believe it, you can shout "Look", which is also called "Open". Everyone will open the dice cup to show it. Roll your own dice. If the total of everyone's dice really has this number, you lose, otherwise the opponent loses. In addition, "point one" can represent all numbers, which is "bastard".
"You old boy..." Chen Junnan reached out and punched Qiao Jiajin's chest, "You look so honest, how come you know so much? God of Gamblers?"
"This is a very common way to play dice, but this is the first time I have seen someone gambling with this method." Qiao Jiajin shook his head and said, "I don't gamble, but I have been to many casinos and even looked after them. , so I know something about it.”
Chen Junnan nodded, and after generally knowing the rules, he looked at the three people on the table. After the monkey called out the number, it was the turn of the next middle-aged man, and the atmosphere between the three people was a little tense.
"Seven...seven four..." the middle-aged man said.
After saying that, no one of the remaining two people shouted "open", and he also breathed a sigh of relief.
After hearing this, the third young man quickly covered the dice cup with both hands, opened it carefully and took a look. He looked hesitant and kept muttering: "Seven four...?"
Chen Junnan happened to be standing behind the young man and took a peek at his dice cup.
The five dice are two "twos", two "threes", and one "one".
These dice seem to be specially made. They do not have traditional points, but directly write "one, two, three" in Chinese characters.
At this time, there was no "four" in his hand, only a "one". According to what Qiao Jiajin said, "one" could represent any point, then he had a "four" in his hand.
His expression looked extremely tangled. His boss had already shouted "seven fours". At this time, he had to shout at least "eight fours" or "seven fives", but no matter which way he shouted, it would be too difficult for him. Said there are huge risks.
After all, no one on both sides has shouted the number "five", which means that there is a high probability that they have no "five" in their hands, or there are very few "five"s, so shouting "four" is the best choice at this time.
But if three people add up, can there really be "eight fours"?
Chen Junnan crossed his arms and felt that this way of playing dice was different from "guessing the size" and more of a test of psychological warfare.
But this is still weird...
Is playing dice a game of "earth monkey"?
The young man thought for a long time, wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand again, and said: "Eight...eight four."
The earth monkey sneered at this time, turned to look at him, and said: "Let's go
