Chapter 668 A draw counts as a loss
"One round determines the outcome...?"
"Yes." Qi Xia agreed, "There are still three rounds left, but I don't want to bother you anymore. I'm going to decide the outcome with you in this round."
"Oh...?" Dihou stretched out his hand and scratched his head, seeming to be considering the feasibility of this plan.
"I am the only one in this round." Qi Xia added, "We don't need any more "Tao". I will take the lives of the six of us first."
"Not only do you want to determine the outcome in one round, but you also want to be the first to take the lead and stake your life?" Dihou asked.
"That's right." Qi Xia said, "This is fair to you. After all, our current chips are close to twenty. Once I win, the accumulated money will probably allow three people to escape. You only have to Three lives can be gained.”
"How can this be fair to me?" Dihou asked, "If you bet six lives, then I also need to bet my own life."
"Of course not." Qi Xia shook his head, "If I win, you only need to supply us with enough "Tao" to survive. The six of us will trade our "lives" for your "Tao". Is it fair?”
Dihou thought carefully for a while and felt that there was nothing wrong with what Qi Xia said.
If the bet continues normally, Qi Xia's chances of winning are not small. After all, he has seen through most of the rules. Even if he cannot guarantee the survival of all members, it is more than enough to save the lives of three people.
But if he can win the next round, he may get six lives at once.
How to choose between getting three lives stably and the six lives you can get by taking a risk?
"Ha...how else can I choose?" Dihou slowly raised his lips, "Even if everyone would choose three lives, I am a "gambler"."
"so……?"
"I agree." Dihou nodded, "After all, as I said just now, you are simply lying. You don't know what my "trump card" is, and your chance of winning will be infinitely reduced."
"What if I didn't lie?"
"Then I lose the bet." Dihou frowned and said, "I am willing to admit defeat."
"good."
"But..." Dihou slowly raised his eyes, "I have a condition."
"Conditions...?" Qi Xia frowned, feeling that something was not good, "Let's talk about it."
"I was supposed to win the game, but I am willing to make such a big concession to accompany you to determine the outcome. I also need to explain the rules again."
"What...? You want to change the rules again?" Qi Xia asked.
"Of course not." Dihou denied, "We will use the "full moon" rule for the last bet, but I need to make it clear first that a "draw" will count as my win."
"A draw...?" Qi Xia thought quickly as his brain almost stopped, "You mean...if two people have the same points, you will win?"
"It's not just that the points are the same." Dihou shook his head, "Even if we both "explode" at the same time, I still win."
Qiao Jiajin and Chen Junnan, who were silent next to them, finally couldn't sit still after hearing this.
"Damn it, Brother Monkey, aren't you a little pushy?" Chen Junnan said, "Why don't you say that you win after you touch the card?"
"Hey! Wait a minute!" Qiao Jiajin suddenly thought of something. He stretched out his hand to stop Chen Junnan, "Handsome boy, we may have misunderstood what Fat Ma Liu meant. He meant that "a draw" would count him as the winner. If not, If it’s a draw, then it’s considered the cheater’s win!”
"Hey!" Chen Junnan slapped his forehead, "Old Qiao, I like your idea the most! So this is what Brother Monkey meant?"
"Why not?!" Qiao Jiajin also said, "You liar, hurry up and bet with him! You have a great chance of winning!"
Dihou squeezed the table with both hands, and a chill burst out from his eyes: "This should be the last struggle for you two, right? After all, you will die after this round."
After finishing speaking, he turned to look at Qi Xia and asked, "You decide for yourself, should you proceed with this final bet according to the rules I mentioned, or finish the three rounds normally?"
Qi Xia knew that if he wanted everyone to survive together, this was the last chance.
If you finish three rounds of gambling according to normal rules, not only do you need to have extremely strong "luck" in each round, but you also need to have extremely high "capital". At the same time, the monkey must not take the initiative to admit defeat. He must be allowed to win every round. If you take out more than ten chips, as long as one condition is not met, someone will definitely stay here.
There is a certain chance that all members will survive, and a 100% chance that three people will be saved. If it were Qi Xia, what would he choose?
"Unfortunately, I am also a gambler." Qi Xia said, "I promise to bet according to the rules of the full moon. If the two people draw, you will win."
"Haha! It's so refreshing!" Dihou said, "We have enough manpower for this round. You can choose someone to help us deal the cards."
Qi Xia thought for a while, and Tiantian not far behind him suddenly spoke.
"Let me do it."
Everyone turned to look at her at the same time, only to see that Tiantian didn't care at all and walked straight to the round table.
"Can I?" Tiantian asked again.
Seeing this, Qi Xia nodded slowly, and then looked at Dihou.
"She is the only one of my people who doesn't know anything about gambling. You can rest assured if she deals the cards, right?"
"Of course, I don't worry about whoever sends it."
Tiantian looked at the two men's eyes as if they were looking at death. She could only carefully gather all the cards together, then check them carefully and wipe off all the blood spots on them.
Everyone's lives have been tied to this gamble, and no mistakes can be made.
Qi Xia slowly stood up, then looked sideways at Qiao Jiajin and Chen Junnan, and said:
"You two come with me."
After saying that, he walked to a table in the distance without looking back, and the two of them quickly followed him.
Dihou saw three people slowly sitting down at a small table in the distance. Then Qi Xia moved his lips slightly and said something in a very small voice, while the expressions of the two people beside him changed one after another, as if they were listening. What an incredible thing.
"So do you understand...?" Qi Xia's voice returned to normal and asked in a deep voice.
"Ming...understand...right?"
The two looked at each other with wonderful expressions.
"Then I will start this round." Qi Xia said, "Let us fight side by side."
While Tiantian was shuffling the cards, the three people sat at the round table with different expressions, but they adjusted their positions. Qi Xia was in the middle, while Qiao Jiajin and Chen Junnan sat on either side of him.
This move did not satisfy the Earth Monkey.
"I said..." Dihou patted the table, "Aren't you the only one participating in the bet? What are the two people around you doing?"
"My assistant." Qi Xia said without thinking, "To prevent me from fainting, and also to prevent me from seeing the cards clearly."
