Views:

Mo Xiaoyao sat on a three-legged round stool in front of the square table, and put her hands on the table. After she agreed to play the game, the crystal ball was moved away by the witch, flying flickeringly. To the side of the low shelf.

"Simple roulette game."

The witch stretched out her withered fingers like spider legs, and drew a circle on the table, and then a turntable with colorful light bulbs appeared on the table with a "bang".

With the middle as the center, the turntable is evenly divided into 20 fan-shaped grids, and numbers are marked from 1-20. On the tip of the pointer, a goblin wearing a pointed hat is tied up, picking his nose intently.

"The rule is very simple. Before you turn the pointer, you draw a card and decide whether to go backwards or forwards according to the face of the card. Then turn the pointer, count from the number it stopped, to which grid, and which grid's code The coin is yours."

While the witch was talking, she folded her hands full of age spots together on the turntable, and rubbed them back and forth a few times. A burst of white light fell, and many tokens the size of fingernails with two line-like legs were thrown on the table one after another. Running around on the turntable, looking for his own position.

After they all settled down, Mo Xiaoyao noticed that the number in each grid was different, most of them were 1 token, and there were 2-3, the most was a grid of 5 tokens. Besides, there is only a small golden wallet that attracts the most attention.

"What is that?" Seeing the witch as a monster, Mo Xiaoyao asked without any pressure, "The golden one."

"It's 20 tokens." The witch stretched out her right index finger, tapped the small purse twice with her long and sharp nails, "It's a cute little thing, isn't it? Everyone wants it, but no one can get it." Pass."

never anyone? Mo Xiaoyao noticed the pride in the witch's words, and turned his attention to the pile of cards that suddenly appeared on the side of the turntable.

"Let's get started." The witch pointed to the pile of cards, "The 15-hour business hours are already boring enough, and you certainly don't want to stay here after it's over."

Mo Xiaoyao stretched out his hand and drew a card, and showed the face of the card to the witch.

- Upright chariot.

"Can I play here all the time?" Mo Xiaoyao poked the little goblin casually, watching it work like medicine, running wildly at a speed that is not proportional to his strength, "I want a lot of tokens."

The witch muttered, "Who doesn't want a lot of tokens?" Then, looking at the little goblin who stopped and was panting on his knees, she shouted in an exaggerated tone full of schadenfreude, "15! Let me Let's see, the upright position is clockwise, so we count to 15 - Ha! 2 tokens! Good luck, little girl."

As the witch's voice fell, the two white tokens within the 10th square jumped away from the turntable with their two thin legs, grunted twice when they reached Mo Xiaoyao's hand, and stopped moving.

Mo Xiaoyao pursed his lips, picked up the two coins and put them in his hands for a look, only to find that their material might be shells, although they are round after polishing, they still retain some shell textures pattern.

After thinking about it, Mo Xiaoyao put the tokens into his carry-on bag, and then looked at the witch who was eagerly watching him start the second game. Instead of reaching out to touch the cards, he repeated his previous question.

"You haven't answered me yet, can I play here all the time?"

The witch narrowed her eyes, and the face under the hood could not be seen clearly under the flickering candlelight: "Is that why you want to stay here?"

Mo Xiaoyao is a little tired of her answering questions that don't matter. If it wasn't for verifying what she thought in her heart, she wouldn't continue to waste time with such a thing.

"Can I keep playing here?"

This was the third time and the last time she asked. Mo Xiaoyao had already taken out the high heels from the bag, stood up, and looked down at the crooked figure condescendingly.

The witch smelled the dangerous aura emanating from the human being opposite, and immediately changed her tone of enthusiasm, and answered the question just now: "You can only play a roulette game three times. This is stated in the rules. Yes, I thought you knew already, girl."

"oh."

Mo Xiaoyao responded coldly, and sat down again. It seems that her judgment is correct, NPC can deliberately conceal, or ask and answer things, but cannot cheat on important rules. Otherwise, the witch would not have given such an answer.

Seeing that Mo Xiaoyao sat down, the witch secretly breathed a sigh of relief, the creases on her face folded up, and she made a smirk: "Draw cards, little girl, let's start the second round quickly."

"I'm the one with a time limit, what are you in a hurry for?" Mo Xiaoyao put his hand on the covered pile of cards, "I still have a question to know."

The witch's face was a bit unnatural, she stretched out her right index finger, and tapped the edge of the turntable with her long nails. The numbers on it were spinning rapidly like a slot machine, and a new turntable was formed when it stopped.

Then those long-legged tokens panicked and ran around on the turntable like a swarm. After a few seconds, they each found a new position and fell silent again.

Mo Xiaoyao noticed that the number of each grid is different from before, and the number of tokens has also changed. For example, the position of 2 grids before was 1 token, and now the position of 2 grids has become the number 7. The number of coins has also increased from 1 to 3.

But the position of the small golden purse seems a bit subtle.

Seeing that Mo Xiaoyao was just staring at the turntable and herself, the witch still didn't reach out to touch the cards, her buttocks squirmed a few times on the seat, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's not wise to waste time with me, little girl, you should return Are you going to collect badges?"

"Oh, yes." Mo Xiaoyao seemed to be convinced by the witch's words, and slowly pinched a card with his left thumb and forefinger on the deck, and then stopped to turn it over under the witch's greedy eyes. Card action, "Second question, after three games, what will happen?"

The witch opened her mouth wide as if her neck had been strangled, revealing a few crooked black teeth.

Mo Xiaoyao didn't urge the witch this time, and took the tarot card in his hand in front of him. He didn't rush to open it, but looked at the strange patterns on the back.

"I guess, not only I have a time limit, but you also have it? For example, how many minutes can a game not exceed, otherwise you will be punished? Of course, I'm just guessing. Don't mind if it's wrong. You don't have to lose anyway, so you don't have to worry about it." answer my question."

The witch didn't want to pretend anymore, she took off her hood, revealing her silver hair, and when she answered Mo Xiaoyao, her voice was not as hoarse as before: "After three games, the tokens you got If there are no more than 6, they will stay forever, and whether they become tokens or goblins tied to pointers will depend on my mood.”

Mo Xiaoyao's gaze subconsciously looked at the little goblin tied up on the pointer, and saw that it was secretly wiping the excrement it picked out on the pointer. Behind the scenes, pretend nothing happened.

Twitching the corners of his mouth, Mo Xiaoyao looked at the witch, tapped the tarot card in front of him twice with his fingers, then lifted it up and threw it on the table.

- Upright Fool.

"I guess, there is no reversed card in your deck, right? Or it is placed at the bottom? But it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter—" Mo Xiaoyao knew this result without even looking at it, "Come on, Turn first, and then we'll discuss Game 3."

He flicked the pointer with his fingers, and the goblin started a new round of crazy running. This time, it stayed on the grid 9, and then counted 9 numbers backwards clockwise, and transferred 1 token in the grid 18. It was given to Mo Xiaoyao.

"There is one more game." The appearance of the witch gradually changed, the creases on her face gradually disappeared, her skin was not smooth and tender, but at least she looked more like a person, "Let's flop."

"Okay." Mo Xiaoyao put the token back into his bag, and reached out to pick up the next card under the witch's uneasy eyes, "Come on, let's see which one of us is luckier?"

— Reversed magician.

"This is impossible!!" The witch screamed in disbelief, and the newly recovered skin wrinkled again at a speed visible to the naked eye, even worse than when Mo Xiaoyao saw her for the first time.

Qu Zhi flicked the pointer again, and the goblin ran hard again. This time, the pointer stopped on the number 6, and then counted 6 numbers counterclockwise, and stopped on the grid 20.

The small golden purse quietly parked in this grid.

What the witch changed before was only the position of the number itself, and the order did not change. The small golden purse seemed to have jumped from the east to the west, but it was always in the 20 grid and never changed.

"Why are there reversed cards! There is no such thing in my deck!" The witch frantically stretched out her spider-like hand and swiped back and forth on the table. The turntable and the tokens on it spilled a lot. land.

Mo Xiaoyao quickly picked up the small golden wallet in advance, and watched with satisfaction as it melted into 20 small long-legged tokens in his palm.

"Have you heard of getting enough food and clothing by yourself?" Mo Xiaoyao stood up and prepared to leave with her booty.

[Ability 2: Do it yourself and have enough food and clothing]

Consume memory crystals, summon the phantoms in the dungeon you see, including but not limited to props, skills, weapons, etc., and make them into cards.

Ability 2 differs from Ability 1 in that it summons phantoms from the "seen" instance rather than the "experienced" instance. In other words, it is not necessary to clear the current copy, but it can also be summoned directly.

After the first round just now, Mo Xiaoyao summoned a set of tarot cards, because they were ordinary utensils with no particularity, and only consumed one crystal.

Then she found out the reversed deck hidden behind the deck and the players turned it over. It was impossible to turn it over in the first three rounds. She randomly chose a card pretending to be taken from the witch's deck and turned it over. Win a small gold purse.

As for why you didn’t win the second round, of course it’s because you can play one more round, at least you can win 1 more token.

Who thinks little money is too much, right
