C1193 Dispelling Delusion
Could it be that this was the secret of mental arithmetic?! Or could Gao Liang, under unknown circumstances, have been in cahoots with the two brothers, Charlie and Ramón, and had come to some kind of agreement that made them invisible?!
However, the second conjecture only lasted for a moment before it was dispelled by Lin Bai. Gao Liang was someone Elder He, the Gambling King, had personally invited. There was no mistake in the way Old He viewed others; Gao Liang definitely wouldn't do such a thing as selling one's master for honor!
Furthermore, Gao Liang's position in the gambling world in Macao and his usual reputation would not allow him to act recklessly in such matters.
Although the casino was very valuable, if Gao Liang took the black heart money to help Charlie and Raymond, he understood that with his skills and position as the King of Gamble with Old He, not only would he have no place in the gambling world in Macao, but even if he escaped to the ends of the earth, he would have no chance of survival!
Gao Liang wouldn't joke about his own conduct, but how could he explain how the two's hands drew an astonishing arc in the air? Could it be that this Charlie in front of him was able to see through the cards with just the same gestures?
After thinking about it, he could not come up with any accurate conclusions, and the cards in Gao Liang's hand had already been washed clean. The remaining time was just enough for both sides to gamble for two more rounds, so Lin Bai decided to gamble with everything he had.
"Mr. Charlie has obtained the Peach K, it's a big card, please choose whether to bet on it or not …" At this moment, Gao Liang had already sent out two cards, one dark and one bright. The card Charlie got was the King of Hearts, while Lin Bai received a 7 Plum Blossom. According to Socha's rules, Charlie was better than Lin Bai in terms of cards, so Charlie had to make a choice in this game.
The entire place was silent. The hearts of those who were watching all hung in their throats as they stared intently at Charlie. There was not much time left. They did not know if Charlie would continue to give up his cards like he had done before, or if he would choose to engage in close combat.
"300,000 chips!" Just as everyone was eagerly waiting, Charlie slowly changed his hand signals. Seeing this, Lei Meng revealed a smile that was hard to detect. He took out a handful of chips and threw it forward.
As soon as he finished speaking, the originally silent casino suddenly turned into a pot of boiling porridge! After waiting for so many times, it was finally Charlie who started the bet! As they thought back to the 14th round, when the two of them bet their bets with everything they had, the spectators all felt a surge of excitement in their hearts.
In addition, this opening move of Charlie's increased his wager to 300,000 yuan. This momentum of going forward without any limits was even crazier than the 14th match. It seemed like this match would be even more exciting than the previous one!
"Note …" Lin Bai smiled faintly. His expression remained the same as it was in the past. He slowly extended his hand and threw out the chips.
He Hongyan's brows couldn't help but furrow when he saw Lin Bai's actions. Judging from how the situation had developed just now, the fact that the two brothers Charlie and Raymond were willing to make a move meant that their cards were better than Lin Bai's. Yet now, Lin Bai had actually completely disregarded this extremely simple rule and brazenly chose to make a move. This truly puzzled He Hongyan.
Had Lin Bai already sensed the other party's methods and decided to do it intentionally, or was he going to gamble everything he had?
"Plum blossom, Mr. Charley. Keep talking." While everyone was still in a daze, the second card had already been released. Charlie's luck was heaven-defying as he obtained a Plum Blossom K, forming a pair with the card in his hand. Lin Bai, on the other hand, had obtained a Peach Blossom 6.
Lei Meng slightly smiled. Without waiting for Gao Liang to finish speaking, he threw out his chips: "One million Additional Stakes!"
"Follow up!" Lin Bai calmly pushed the chips in front of him and said.
The crowd went into an uproar. The current situation at the gambling table had already made them somewhat confused. According to the cards in his hands, Charlie had acquired a pair of Ks, which was clearly better than the 6 or 7 cards in Lin Bai's hands. Under these circumstances, Lin Bai still chose to follow through with the bet. Could it be that he was certain Charlie could only get the pair, while he could get the right one to take care of the other?
Soon after, the third card was released. Charlie received a Black Peach K, while Lin Bai received a square 4. Compared to Charlie, the cards in Lin Bai's hands were simply rotten to the extreme. As long as he could get a match with his trump card, or another K, Forhaus or four, even if Lin Bai managed to get Chunzi, he would still be defeated miserably.
"Mr. Charlie, Mr. Raymond, please place your bet." Gao Liang looked at Lin Bai with a complicated expression as he spoke slowly.
Lei Meng glanced at Lin Bai with ridicule in his eyes and said, "Two million. Boss Lin, do you dare to follow me?"
"Your luck isn't good. I think we should stop here." Lin Bai smiled bitterly and shook his head. He gathered the cards in his hand together and threw them towards the gambling table. He clenched his hands tightly and said coldly, "I don't believe that I am so tired of luck!"
When Lei Meng heard this, he remained unmoved. He glanced at Lin Bai, his face filled with a cold smile.
Upon hearing Lin Bai's words, the entire stadium immediately sighed. The eyes of the gamblers watching on from the sidelines were now filled with sympathy. When Lin Bai and He Jia Er had competed for gambling cards in Macau and seized the Silversand Casino, every single one of them had been thrilling. It had been so easy for the casino to open up a new world in Macau, but now they had to hand it over to someone else.
But there was no father and son in the casino. No matter how much he lamented, it would do no good. The more he resented her, the more he would laugh at her.
"This is the last one. This old man will try his luck. I don't believe that this Carlin Casino will really change its name!" Towards the expressions of sympathy and schadenfreude around him, Lin Bai acted as if he did not see them. He grumbled with righteous indignation and his eyes were bloodshot as he stared at Gao Liang. He said in a deep voice, "Brother Gao, when we shuffle the cards later, your hand speed will be faster. Now, let's have a good look at the last card!"
Gao Liang silently nodded with a complicated expression. After the previous exchange, Lin Bai had lost 1.3 million chips, leaving him with less than 4 million. In the last match, unless he turned the tables, there was no chance of winning!
"This bet is a bit too big. We should have done as I said earlier and chased these two guys out of the casino!" Looking at Lin Bai's expression, He Hongyan let out a light sigh. He looked at He Jia Er with a complicated expression as he consoled him, "Even if Lin Lin can't do it anymore, we still have the Silver Sand Casino. As long as we can manage it well, we won't have to worry about not having a comeback."
Although He Hongyan's words were true, how could he not understand that after this heaven-shaking gamble, the reputation of Carlin Casino in the gambling world in Macau would reach an even higher level. Regardless of size or location, the Silversand Casino was much smaller than the Garlin Casino. After the defeat, it would be difficult for the other casinos in Macau to not have their own ideas about the casino. At that time, even with his help, the situation would not be so easy to control.
"Elder He, he won't lose!" He Jia Er slightly shook his head, his eyes still showing incomparable determination. It was as though even in this critical moment, in her eyes, Lin Bai was still invincible, invincible, unstoppable, unstoppable.
"Lin Bai definitely won't lose!" Right at this moment, a resolute and decisive voice sounded out from behind He Jia Er. The crowd turned to look, only to see the beautifully dressed Li Qiushui standing out in the open. Her face was flushed red as she spoke, "Grandaunt, I've heard the news, and came to spectate the battle. Even if he really can't beat those two bastards, I will go and plead for Grandfather to buy this casino and give it to Sister Gale! "
He Hongyan went silent when he heard this. After a long while, he couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile. This little girl must have heard the news from Hong Kong Island that Lin Bai had returned to Macau. She had come all the way here late at night. However, this little girl, whose mind was muddled by love, did not know that the arrangement of the Five Elements Wind and Water Bureau on Hong Kong Island had already made Li Jiacheng worry so much that he did not have the energy to split his attention.
Furthermore, if Lin Baizhen failed and the news reached Hong Kong island, it was hard to say if there would be any waves during the construction work there!
Even so, He Hongyan was still sighing in his heart. This brat truly seemed to have some sort of magic on him, making the women around him to place their full trust in him without any reason!
Just as He Hongyan was sighing with emotion, this final round of gambling officially began! Just like before, Gao Liang took out a brand-new deck of poker cards, then he took out the King or King within, and began to shuffle the cards. However, what was completely different from before was that Gao Liang had now fully revealed his card playing skills. The poker cards seemed to have taken root in his hands as they continuously revolved around his hands.
The fifty-two poker cards circled around his hands, drawing long lines of afterimages, just like a colorful snake. It was dazzling, dazzling, and it was impossible to guess what exactly was drawn on the surface of the cards!
Lin Bai's eyes narrowed. Although he seemed to be trying his best to stare at the card in Gao Liang's hand, only he knew in his heart that his peripheral vision was currently staring fixedly at Charlie. There was no difference from his guess. When Gao Liang started to touch the poker cards, an unusually bright light shone out of the lifeless Charlie's eyes. His hands also started to twitch nervously.
"The Nine Stars Descends, the Water Gap changes, and qi flow enters the body!" Lin Bai took a deep breath and slowly formed a seal with his hands. He then started to stir the Nine Star Galaxy Water Bureau and waited for the last remnants of luck to descend before opening his eyes. The light in his eyes looked towards Gao Liang, and he said, "Brother Gao, wash the cards a little faster!"
When Gao Liang heard this, he blankly turned his head. His hand movements became sluggish as a blurry expression appeared in his eyes.
This was the moment! At this moment, Lin Bai completely understood what Charlie and the Lei brothers meant by 'mental calculations'. Without any hesitation, he formed a sword technique with his two hands, and the Baleful Yin Force sword in the Atlas book followed him like a shadow, piercing towards Gao Liang's forehead with the sword technique he had formed with his two hands!
At the same time, Lin Bai's lips moved slightly as he silently chanted, "Score, break the record!"
