Give Me the Name of God

Joel counted out twenty silver coins and put them on the table. He was about to pick up the dice cup when he heard Manda say: I don't have any dice.

Joel smiled: Didn't I give you some?

I lost it.

I'll give you three more. Joel took three dice and handed them to Manda. This is an expensive gift, worth twenty silver coins. Tell your father, don't feel bad.

Manda held three dice, clenched them in her hands, blew into her palms, tapped them on the table, and then put them into the dice cup.

Are you praying for good luck? The beautiful girl Helena laughed beside her, Come, sit next to sister, sister will give you good luck.

This is a common technique used by Feng Jiang. Firstly, it can distract the attention of the guests and cause interference to some guests who know the skills. Secondly, it can coax the guests to keep increasing their bets. Under her coaxing, many The guest couldn't even calculate the points and emptied his wallet in a daze.

Manda was somewhat interested in this girl and simply sat on her lap. This move surprised Helena and made Joel even more annoyed. He placed the dice a little slower, allowing Manda to see the points he had prepared in advance.

One king, two dukes, the largest number of points, and a bet of twenty silver coins made Joel dare not be careless.

Manda shook the dice cup, and when he heard the sound of the dice rolling in the dice cup, Joel was relieved. He thought Manda was just a stupid boy who wanted to gamble his luck.

But what he didn't expect was that Manda had already replaced the dice when he blew on them. The dice he used were filled with mercury, and the dice just kept spinning in the dice cup, and the points had already been determined.

After rolling the dice, Joel opened the cup first, one king and two dukes.

Poor kid, you lost. Helena lamented.

Joel was about to collect the money, but Manda pushed his hand away: Don't be so impatient, I haven't opened the cup yet.

Joel frowned and said, You understand the rules, right? There is no higher score than mine.

Manda remained silent. He opened the dice cup, and there were also one king and two dukes, and the two sides were tied.

Joel frowned, then smiled and said, You're lucky, little guy. Take your silver coins back.

Why take it back? Can't I raise the bet? In the past three days, Manda learned the rules of the gambling game. He took out forty silver coins and put them on the table.

Joel licked his lips and said to Manda: Don't be ignorant, good luck will not always favor you.

Manda raised her neck and said: If you admit defeat, the money on the table will belong to me, and you can get out immediately.

Joel's smile disappeared, and Manda's expression disgusted him. He counted more than thirty silver coins, plus a large pile of copper coins, and piled them on the table.

This is really shabby. Manda smacked her lips.

You can count them all. One copper coin is not a lot. Joel won copper coins at the gambling table. He went to the market once before and exchanged the copper coins for gold coins. He didn't have many silver coins in his hand.

Only a pauper would care about these few coppers. Manda picked up the dice cup, and the two of them rolled the dice again. When they opened the cup, they saw that there were still one king and two dukes, and the second game was still a tie.

Joel was sweating. He suspected that Manda relied not on luck but on some kind of skill.

He was not the only one sweating, Helena was also sweating, and the sweat dripped on Manda's head.

Manda wiped the sweat from her forehead, looked up at Helena and said, Are you feeling hot or scared?

Helena was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: What am I afraid of? I didn't place any bets. I think this place is too close to the fire pit.

While talking, Helena took off her shirt. Such a move was very lethal to the young man. Unexpectedly, Manda didn't blush or her heart beat. She even pinched Helena's cheek: You are really A pleasant person.

Joel was furious, but what made him even more angry was yet to come. Manda took out a gold coin and placed it on the table: I want to raise the bet, do you dare to bet?

The middle-aged man shook his head at Joel. Helena blinked at Joel. Joel gritted his teeth and took out a gold coin from his wallet and slapped it on the table: Let's do it again.

It was still a tie again, so Manda continued to raise, and he took out five gold coins.

Joel also took out five gold coins, and they both picked up the dice cup at the same time.

Dice rolling is a very complex technology. The principle seems simple. It is nothing more than letting the dice slide against the dice cup. However, as long as the force is slightly uneven, the dice will roll. Even if it only rolls a little, the consequences will be disastrous.

Joel was waiting for Manda to make a mistake, but the chance of Manda making a mistake was much lower than Joel's. When the bet was increased to twenty gold coins, Joel's hands were shaking and he felt that his wallet became lighter. Yes, much lighter.

The entire tavern was silent. Looking at the mountains of gold coins on the table, all the guests seemed to have joined the gambling game, sweating and shaking with Joel.

Joel picked up the dice cup. Most of his savings were on the table. He knew he couldn't afford to lose this game.

He regretted a little, regretting not listening to the advice of the middle-aged man and Helena, of course only a little.

Now was not the time to think about this. He had no way out and had to win the game. He glanced at Helena and then picked up the dice cup.

Manda also shook the dice cup. After shaking it for a moment, Joel's dice cup fell on the table first. Helena took the opportunity to poke Manda's elbow.

This move came very suddenly, but he didn't expect Manda to be on guard. Before Helena touched his elbow, he felt Helena's body moving first, and quickly handed the dice cup to his left hand, with a heavy blow. Slap it on the table.

With this shot, Joel's face turned pale, the table shook, and the dice in the dice cup seemed to move.

Manda took the lead in opening the dice cup. The change of hands just now caused his wrist to be disturbed. This time, a king, a duke, and a viscount were drawn.

Joel saw hope, and he carefully opened the dice cup.

A king, a duke, the third die, still a king.

Rebellion! Manda picked up the dice and blew, Good luck has always been good to me. You will lose twice as much money.

Joel held the dice cup in silence for a while, and he almost collapsed on the ground.

No, this is impossible, Manda's dice keeps rolling, there is no such superb skill in the world.

You're cheating, there's something in your dice! Joel is quite knowledgeable. He knows how to cheat in the dice.

You gave me this dice. If you don't believe me, look at it yourself. Manda threw the dice in front of Joel, and when he was blowing, he replaced the dice.

It was indeed his own dice, or it could be the dice that had been given to him before. He might have used those dice to manipulate the dice, and then secretly changed the dice.

Joel took out a dagger, and the guests screamed and hid in the distance.

Manda frowned and said, What do you want to do?

Joel remained silent and smashed the dice with the handle of his knife. There was nothing inside.

He smashed another die, but there was still nothing inside.

When he tried to smash the third dice, Manda got upset and said, Don't smash my table.

He picked up the dice with his fingers and neatly cut it in half with his golden fingers. The dice fell on the table empty.

Manda whispered: Is there anything else you can say?

Joel realized who he had offended, and replied tremblingly: I lost.

If you lose, you'll be given money. In the last round, you'll double it, and you'll have to give me twenty gold coins.

I, no, don't have that much money.

Are you serious? Manda picked up a copper coin and cut it in half with her fingers.

I really didn't... Joel looked at Helena. Helena touched her hand to her waist. There was a dagger hidden there. Manda suddenly jumped off Helena's lap and took it. He took Helena's dagger and looked at Joel with a ferocious expression.

The guests didn't dare to say anything. They had never seen this scene in their lives. The middle-aged businessman knelt on the ground and cried: We were wrong, don't hurt my sister, I beg you.

Joel suddenly raised his head, pointed at Helena and said, I'll leave her to you and use her to pay off the debt!

The middle-aged businessman pounced on Joel and fought hard: You beast, what are you talking about!

Joel knocked the middle-aged man over with one punch, pointed at Helena and continued: Keep her here, okay?

Manda smiled, cut off the dagger with her fingers, and asked again: Is this serious?
