Chapter 82: Breaking Out (Part 1)

Views:

The third battle began. With the previous great victory, Feng Bazhi seemed very proud of himself, and his arrogance was clearly revealed in his words.

He Meifeng and Ye Yi looked at each other. The hatred at the beginning had turned into a tacit understanding in the competition with Feng Bazhi. When facing a common enemy, let alone the grudges between the families, even their own fathers could be betrayed temporarily. Gamblers are so realistic.

This time the seating arrangement seemed to be designed to make it more difficult for Feng Bazhi, as he happened to be playing against Zheng Yubai. Ye Yi was in the room above him, and He Meifeng was in the room below him. As soon as they sat down, they stared at each other eagerly, and a fierce battle was obviously about to break out.

Everyone knew that there were only four rounds left, and there was no point in maintaining the situation. If you were not the biggest winner, you would have to leave in disgrace and watch others dominate the gambling world. Since you came to participate in the competition, you did it for the two glittering titles of "God of Gamblers".

Although gamblers only care about money, hundreds of millions of dollars are nothing compared to the title of God of Gamblers. Because of their belief in winning, the four of them immediately fell into a fierce fight of intrigue as soon as the first round of the third game started.

Feng Bazhi was at the center of the storm. He was the first to take action, so he naturally became the victim of the first bird to be shot. He Meifeng and Ye Yi had previously spent most of their time on fighting each other, which allowed Feng Bazhi to gain the upper hand. Now that the two of them were targeting him together, the three of them immediately fell into a situation of mutual entanglement. Zheng Yubai began his performance at this time.

"Dongfeng." Ye Yi looked at the deck of cards in his hand, and finally played the Dongfeng that he had been holding. Judging from the way Feng Bazhi played the cards in this round, he was probably expecting the word card.

After the two generals' competition, the players' moves were mixed together, and it was a common practice to create confusion for the opponent on the mahjong tiles. It was no longer possible to identify the tiles by moving the tiles, and now it was necessary to constantly analyze the trend of the game and guess the opponent's cards based on the situation of the tiles being played.

Feng Bazhi didn't react at all. Just as he was about to grab the cards, he saw Zheng Yubai scratching his head and pushing the cards down: "Win."

The minimum required for a complete set of four cards is 16. Looking at the beautiful cards in Zheng Yubai's hand, Ye opened his mouth wide.

He Meifeng had a snicker on her face. Zheng Yubai was the big loser, so it didn't matter if he won. After Ye Yi's shot, his chips had dropped to third place, and Feng Bazhi was even further behind. If he wanted to keep his chance of advancing, he could only desperately control Feng Bazhi's cards to prevent him from winning. This was a win-win for He Meifeng.

Zheng Yubai had been losing, but now he finally won a big hand, which made the situation more intense. Except for Feng Bazhi who was still far ahead, the difference in chips between him and Ye and Zheng was not too big. If he won every game with a big four, it would only take Zheng Yubai a few games to catch up.

Luck seemed to have shifted from Feng Bazhi to Zheng Yubai. In the next three games, Zheng Yubai won three games in a row with "Big Three Yuan", "One Word", and "Five Dark Kan". Feng Bazhi fired three shots in a row, and although he still maintained the lead, it was already very weak.

Rather than saying it was luck, it was more like the game was going in the direction Zheng Yubai had expected. Ye Yi tried his best to stop Feng Bazhi in the upper hand, while He Meifeng did not keep a close eye on Zheng Yubai's cards. Everyone's focus was on Feng Bazhi, who was in the lead, and they relaxed their vigilance against Zheng Yubai. Zheng Yubai's Chaos Palm was not practiced in vain. Unknowingly, he had won back most of the chips he had lost. After the first round of the third general, the situation of the gambling game was almost back to the starting point.

At this time, the other three people realized that Zheng Yubai had changed the situation without saying anything. They thought Zheng Yubai was just a small character who made it to the finals, but the scene before them forced them to re-evaluate this young man who was a bit silly and never showed his emotions.

Feng Bazhi looked a little unhappy. He said to Ye Yi while shuffling the cards, "While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. Who are you working so hard for?"

Ye Yi rolled his eyes at him and said, "I'm willing, what's it to you?" Although he said that, he still looked at Zheng Yubai warily.

He Meifeng intentionally or unintentionally put her hands on the cards that Zheng Yubai was carefully placing, smiling: "People say that heroes emerge from youth, and we old guys can't be unconvinced."

Zheng Yubai didn't mind hearing that they were bringing the war to him. There were no allies at the poker table. These people were all experienced and they would never trust anyone. In fact, gambling is ultimately a psychological process. If Zheng Yubai hadn't mastered the complicated relationship between the people, he wouldn't have been able to take advantage of their fight to fish in troubled waters.

But since he has already started to stir up this muddy water, there is no need to be polite. Zheng Yubai unabashedly displayed the skill of Chaos Palm, which not only contained the light and dark power taught by Du Bisheng, but also carried the unique domineering of Xingyiquan. The mahjong tiles made a crisp sound when he rubbed them. Everyone in the hall couldn't help but look over when they heard the sound, wondering why the game here was so intense.

"Good fellow." The three knew that the hidden Zheng Yubai had finally shown his power, and they were not willing to be outdone. The four of them were like eight immortals crossing the sea, each showing their magical powers, and their palms were on the card table, fighting openly and secretly, and beads of sweat were faintly oozing from their foreheads.

Although the audience could not feel their fight, they knew that the game had entered a white-hot stage. The winner of the other table was very clear, and the two gambling kings from the United States and South Korea were eliminated early. Du Bisheng and Hong Shen's two-person mahjong game also fell into a one-sided situation.

Du Bisheng, who had been missing from the gambling world for a long time, showed his super strength in this competition and obviously occupied a place to challenge the God of Gamblers. Since the situation was decided, the audience's attention was focused on Zheng Yubai's table.

From the second round, Zheng Yubai clearly felt that He Meifeng had strengthened her control over his cards, but Zheng Yubai was not in a hurry. There is an unwritten saying on the mahjong table that if a person starts to control the next player, then his own cards will definitely not be much better.

As expected, He Meifeng soon fell into the grave she dug for herself, and the struggle between Ye Yi and Feng Bazhi also reached a white-hot stage. Although everyone wanted to deal with Zheng Yubai, he looked like he was not interested in fighting with the world. No matter how He Meifeng tried to control him, he would smile slightly, making it difficult for people to figure out his thoughts. (To be continued)
