22. Let's bet big, the biggest bet ever.
Twenty-six points is the largest.
Yes.
Twenty-six points, not thirty-six points.
Duan Xingchen stared at the six dice in the center of the gambling table, within the magic array, and couldn't help but look somewhat astonished.
She turned around and found that her ten chips had disappeared in the blink of an eye, along with the five chips that the demon girl had placed.
They all listened to Yunping and bet on the 36-point leopard.
However, the outcome was not as they had expected. The young man in white who had made the predictions correctly twice before encountered problems this time.
"Haha, I knew it! How could it be so mysterious?!"
A rugged and fierce-looking demon man, who had made a fortune this time, grinned and excitedly scooped up all the chips he had won.
He seemed to have forgotten that he himself had once intended to cling to Yunping's coattails.
As the demon man shouted excitedly, the other two who had been betting heavily finally breathed a sigh of relief—they were both glad that they hadn't been blinded by their own excitement and followed Yun Ping in betting on the almost impossible 36-point leopard.
As a result, everyone's attention almost inevitably turned to Yunping, wanting to see what kind of expression this man, who had lost ten chips due to reckless betting, would have at this moment.
"Tsk...looks like my luck isn't so good today."
The young man in white named Yunping still had his legs crossed. He raised his head and glanced meaningfully at the dark sky, his expression unchanged, as if ten chips were nothing to him.
These words immediately drew criticism from a female disciple surnamed Ye standing nearby.
"Even with good luck, it's impossible for a normal person to win something as outrageous as a 36-point leopard..."
"Do I look like a normal person to you?" Yunping asked with a smile.
Ye Yuchan rolled her eyes at the old rogue: "Go ask your senior brothers and sisters about this, and see if they would answer with the word 'normal,' which has absolutely nothing to do with you."
Yu Chan didn't just say that randomly. She had actually secretly asked Jiang Yuetian and Lin Yuan before. Although they both maintained a very respectful and dependent attitude towards Yun Ping, they didn't really think their teacher was anything special...
How can a teacher who's full of dirty jokes and likes to trick his students be normal?!
Yunping gently tapped Yuchan's head, "Do you really enjoy dissing your teacher like that?"
"Who told you to place such an impossible bet..." Ye Yuchan glanced back at Zhang Ruoxue, whose expression was unusual, and said, "Ruoxue, don't you think so?"
Faced with Ye Yuchan's attempt to drag her into this mess, Ruoxue didn't seem to care much. After pondering for a while, she nodded and said, "Generally speaking, the probability of a giant leopard appearing is almost the same as the probability of being hit by a carriage and falling off a cliff while walking on the road and then unexpectedly finding a peerless secret manual..."
"So I also think the teacher is a bit..."
Zhang Ruoxue didn't finish her sentence, but judging from the look in her eyes, Yunping already knew what she wanted to say.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. Even Ye Yuchan, who had witnessed Yunping gambling before, couldn't believe that Yunping could get a 36-point "big leopard" (a set of three identical pieces), even though she had only ever played Ludo...
But this game is worlds apart from Ludo. In Ludo, you usually only need to roll a six to move a small plane, but the problem is that Yunping rolled a 36-point big leopard...
That requires rolling six dice at the same time, and all six dice must show a six.
The probability of this happening is so low that even a fool would know it's practically impossible.
While Yun Ping and the others were talking, the demon girl sitting diagonally opposite Yun Ping, who was the only girl who had just placed a bet with Yun Ping, narrowed her eyes.
Her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly as she gazed thoughtfully at the twenty-six points on the gambling table…
For some reason, she always had a subtle feeling...
But when asked to explain in detail, she couldn't give a specific answer.
"Gentlemen, would you like to continue playing?"
Before she could think too much, the skinny boss's words echoed in her ears again.
The demon girl glanced at the chips in front of her—thirty-six chips.
Having already lost a significant amount, she was getting further and further away from her desired eighty coins.
However, considering the question she asked the skinny boss, charging eighty chips wasn't particularly excessive, after all, it involved the question of one of the most mysterious people in the world.
"Continue," she replied curtly, casually producing five chips to place another bet.
The others at the gambling table also showed no sign of backing down; they had not yet achieved their goals and all chose to continue.
This naturally includes Duan Xingchen.
—It's another new gamble.
This time, Duan Xingchen hesitated for a few seconds. Instead of directly asking Yun Ping, he thoughtfully took out five chips and said softly, "This time, let's bet five..."
Where are you planning to bet?
Yunping glanced at Duan Xingchen, who seemed to be planning to make the decision himself, and asked softly.
Duan Xingchen glanced at the other people's bets, and finally fixed his gaze on "Big".
"How about... we bet big?"
Xingchen was still a little timid, but she couldn't help but ask Yunping for advice.
Although she felt that the unreliable young man in front of her had tricked her last time, she was really confused about the situation now and had no one else to ask for advice.
The old rogue could also tell what the girl was thinking. In fact, it seemed that Duan Xingchen's purity and filth were not only due to her physical constitution, but also to her ulterior motives. She basically wore all her emotions on her face, making it impossible not to see them.
Yunping took a sip of his wine, glanced at the gambling table, and spoke in a calm and collected tone.
"Whatever you want to bet on. This game is all about luck. Nobody can really predict what the dice will roll. Look, I just said 'triple,' and it didn't come up, did it?"
Yu Chan rolled her eyes silently: "You knew it hadn't been released yet, and you still let her go download it?"
"I'm just saying that everyone looks so gloomy. Gambling needs to have some atmosphere. A gambling game that's lifeless and devoid of any vitality can hardly be called a gambling game."
So you're just trying to liven things up by coming up with this impossible number, right?
Ye Yuchan was completely speechless this time. But thinking about it, the chips that Duan Xingchen won were earned with the Pure World Ginseng, which belonged to the old rogue.
Basically, those chips are equivalent to Yunping's; he could use them as gold coins or to perform magic tricks without any problem...
In the end, Duan Xingchen followed Yun Ping's advice and chose to bet on the big one.
The dice cup is opened, and the numbers appear.
This time, Lady Luck clearly did not favor Duan Xingchen, and the so-called "newbie luck" did not seem to be on his side.
The final result is fourteen points, which is small.
The five chips placed on the "Big" card vanished without a trace. Watching the chips suddenly turn into specks of light and disappear before his eyes, Duan Xingchen felt as if something had tugged at his heartstrings.
She gasped, while excited shouts erupted from the crowd around her.
"I'm fucking lucky today! Except for that one game of blackjack, I've been winning all the way up, ahahahaha..."
"Hey, hey, don't get excited, don't get excited. After winning a couple more rounds, we can probably call it a day!"
"Okay, okay, I'll do as you say, let's do it again!"
—Again…?
Duan Xingchen bit her lower lip, her heart trembling as she looked at the dwindling chips in her arms.
This time, she took out ten chips directly. For some reason, all she could think about was making a comeback and winning back everything she had lost, including all the chips she had lost before!
Big? Or small?
Without any hesitation, she immediately pushed all ten chips onto the "Big" board!
—I refuse to believe it! How could I possibly miss so many times in a row?!
"Um……"
Yun Ping took a small sip of sake and narrowed his dead fish eyes as he looked at Duan Xingchen.
This girl is probably about to fall for it.
Gambling is something like this; if you're not a person with a strong will, you might easily get caught up in it and desperately try to win back everything you've lost.
Duan Xingchen was clearly in this state at the moment. If no one reminded her, she might keep gambling until she lost everything.
The saying "nine out of ten gamblers lose" is largely true.
This is true.
This time, Duan Xingchen wagered ten chips, but luck still didn't smile upon him.
Sixteen points is considered small.
Duan Xingchen's ten chips bets this time also came to nothing.
But this only made Xingchen place even more hope on the word "comeback," and she immediately placed ten more chips on "big," her delicate face flushed with a hint of annoyance.
Seeing this scene, Ye Yuchan couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.
"Hey, you old scoundrel, she..."
"It's okay, no rush."
Yunping naturally knew what Yuchan was thinking, but he didn't intend to stop her. Instead, he sat silently in place, gazing at Duan Xingchen.
With the thin boss's cold gaze upon him, Duan Xingchen's last glimmer of hope for a comeback emerged.
The sound of dice rattling echoed in his ears, as if six dice were really rattling in his mind. Duan Xingchen held his breath, his appearance strikingly similar to that of the cultivator whose soul had been extracted earlier.
Unfortunately, the endings were also very similar.
The final result is 20 points, which is small.
—We lost again.
Duan Xingchen felt a surge of anger being released, and she slumped down, her body weak, her eyes filled with a complex expression.
His gaze finally settled on the last chip on the table. Duan Xingchen gripped the golden chip, which looked like a gold coin, and took a deep breath.
Her eyes gradually cleared, and she turned around, looking at Yunping with a sense of apology.
"I'm sorry... I lost all my chips..."
Don't you want to continue gambling?
Yunping looked at the girl with amusement.
