The villain is being forced to whitewash again

What greeted the eyes was a darkness that could not be seen. It was impossible to judge how much space there was, what objects were placed around it, and whether there were living things. It seemed that the chaotic world had not been split into two halves.

Liu Linlin was puzzled and said: "...Why is it so dark that you can hardly see anything in front of you. Hey, is there anyone?"

Talking about stepping forward and trying to take a few steps forward, Zhao Yuan grabbed his arm vigilantly, "Don't act rashly before we figure out the situation."

There was a sting, and a little flame suddenly appeared in the darkness. The fiery red was like the scarlet tongue of a poisonous snake. The air smelled of vinegar and a little stink. It was hard to tell what kind of mixture it was. The flame exploded violently, instantly lighting up the dark room that was originally invisible.

The darkness disappeared, allowing people to see everything hidden by it. It turns out that this place is nothing more than ordinary. There are only a few strange masks of some uncomfortable colors hanging on the white walls, staring blankly into the room from a height. At the same time, the candlelight of the only candle also exposed the man sitting in front of a rectangular table in front of them.

The man was wearing a thick dark brown hooded cloak with only the pointed lower half of his face exposed, and his arms hanging on the rectangular table were covered with white bandages. Judging his physique from the width of his hands It should be very thin and less than half the weight of an adult man. If you take off the hood and cloak on your body, it must be extremely skinny to the naked eye.

He just sat like this, as if his whole body was about to merge into the shadow behind him. He didn't react at all to the person entering the room, as if it was an invisible air. If it wasn't for the fact that the person was breathing, he would have thought It's a dead body.

The atmosphere is too weird, and there is a sense of uneasiness that cannot be explained. Although it can be explained that this is the characteristic decoration of the haunted house, so that every guest who comes in can experience the thrill of heart beating, but it is too weird. .

The door that should not exist suddenly appeared on the map without any hints, and the mechanism is also somewhat unreasonable, and the man in front of him who doesn't look like he is silent and dressed abnormally, the more he thinks about it, the more he feels Disturbingly, this off-map room is definitely not that simple and there must be something wrong with it.

"...Who are you?" Zhao Yuan's whole body was clearly written with vigilance.

The man stretched out his left hand, holding a copper coin made of gold between his two fingers, which shone dazzlingly under the orange candlelight. When he spoke, his voice was not hoarse or sharp as they had imagined, but rather It's the unexpected lazy tone that doesn't match the weird attire he's wearing at the moment, like a passive sabotage who doesn't want to get up from the bed.

"A nameless gambler, you can call me nameless or a gambler, I don't mind either, why don't you sit down and play a game with all four guests here?"

Ling Qingshan snorted, turned around and spread out a hand.

"I thought it was something, but it turned out to be just a silly trick to waste my time."

"Don't leave in a hurry, guest, this game is not without prizes, if I win, I can get a lot of wealth."

As soon as the words fell, he stabbed into the wall next to him with the gold and copper coins in his hand, and scraped down, the snow-white wall was broken so easily, and the wall next to him was actually made of paper, and it rolled out from the inside. There are a lot of copper coins made of gold, and the gold on the ground almost blinds people's eyes.

Ling Qingshan looked at the gold here and was not excited but frowned slightly. Liu Linlin picked up a gold and copper coin from the ground, bit it with his teeth in doubt, raised his head and said dumbfounded: "My God, it's true, it's true of gold!"

The nameless gambler smiled and said, "Of course it's all true. How about it? Are you interested in staying now?"

Liu Linlin pulled the empty chair and sat in front of the rectangular table, and said impatiently: "So, as long as I win the game, you can take away all the gold and copper coins on the ground, right?"

The nameless gambler smiled and said: "That's right, but... everything you gain has something you lose. If you win, all the gold will belong to you, but if you lose, your soul will be given to me."

Hearing that the soul is a bet, Liu Linlin didn't feel that there was anything wrong at all, and felt that this gamble was nothing but beneficial to him. As for the soul, hey, what kind of feudal superstition is it? The other party is not from the Palace of Hades There is no way that black and white impermanence can really steal his own soul, so he boldly agreed.

"It's a piece of cake, come on."

"Okay." The nameless gambler suddenly threw the gold and copper coins held in two fingers high with an unsuspecting movement. The gold and copper coins rolled a few times in mid-air and fell back to the back of his hand. The palm of the hand covered the back of the hand at the same moment, "Excuse me, at this moment, is the side facing up the copper coin a word or a flower?"

Liu Linlin was dumbfounded immediately, and he just sat down. The other party didn't realize what happened just now after making such a sudden move. How could he have the time to see whether the upward side of the copper coin is a word or a flower? Oops, this What should I do next?

No way, Liu Linlin thought hard and couldn't remember the scene of the copper coin falling back on the back of the opponent's hand just now, so he had to give a random answer.

"...It's...it's flower noodles!"

The other hand moved away to reveal the gold and copper coins on the back of the hand, "It's a pity, you got the wrong answer."

There was an unconcealable disappointment on Liu Linlin's face. Although it was uncomfortable to watch the money escape from his hands, if you lose, you lose and you have to accept the reality of failure.

He was just about to get up from the chair, but suddenly the look in his eyes disappeared, and he heard a slap, as if the bones in his whole body were pulled out, and he fell on the chair without moving.

"Liu Linlin!" Zhao Yuan was really frightened by this scene. He squatted down to measure Liu Linlin's nose and breathing, put his ears on his chest and his heartbeat, but no matter how he called, he couldn't wake up. His face was dull, like a fish. Liu Linlin with his lifeless eyes open.

"Bastard, what did you do to him?!" Zhao Yuan pinched the unknown gambler's neck angrily, trying to take his head off with great strength, which shows how terrible his anger is and how much he values ​​human life.

There was a faint smile on the face of the nameless gambler, "Didn't I say that if I lose, I have to give my soul to me. What is lying there is just a body without a soul."

Zhao Yuan was furious: "I don't care what magic you used, but now you must put your soul back into his body immediately, otherwise, I will throw you into a leech nest and suck you into a mummy!"

"Then you do it, anyway, his soul is in my hands, if I'm not happy, I can squeeze this soul to death just by thinking about it in my heart, and at worst, we will die together." The nameless gambler was covered by a hood There was a joke in his eyes.

"...Damn it!" Zhao Yuan let go of the unknown gambler's collar, gritted his teeth, and slammed his fist on the rectangular table.

Pushed back to the chair, the nameless gambler straightened his somewhat messy cloak, crossed ten fingers of both hands, looked at Zhao Yuan and reminded him very politely.

"Actually, it's not impossible to get his soul back. The rules are the same. As long as you win the game, I'll send his soul back to his original body. Of course, if you lose, then you His soul shall be mine."

Zhao Yuan stared at the person in front of him. He was so angry that he wanted to punch him hard, but Liu Linlin's soul was still in his hands. If he wanted to save him, he couldn't do anything to the person in front of him. Damn it, why? Let them meet this monster that can take away people's souls. Qin Shi, whose cultivation base is unfathomably high, can't do anything with this monster here.

Could it be...is it really only possible to save Liu Liu Linlin by participating in this gambling game with the soul as a bargaining chip?But what if you lose?They have already lost one person, if they accidentally lose another one, do they still have to gamble with other people's souls?

Just when Zhao Yuan was in a state of confusion, Ling Qingshan stepped forward and said coldly: "I'll take this bet."

Zhao Yuan grabbed Ling Qingshan's sleeve anxiously, "Wait a minute, this is not an ordinary gamble, if you lose, you will end up like Liu Linlin!"

"Of course I know the price of losing, but this guy must be killed by me." Ling Qingshan looked at the unknown gambler, and there was a chilling ferocity in his eyes, as if a prey had been snatched away. Enraged male lion.

"These days, you are the bastard who is secretly doing murder in my name, right? So many civilians who have been stabbed through their chests have a cross scratch on their chests, which is what I usually leave The scratches on the corpse, but I clearly remember that their names were not written on my list."

"And they lost all their gold and silver. This case spread to the world and ruined my reputation. It was said that killing people indiscriminately was only for robbing money, which caused me to be chased so badly by the yamen that the No. 1 arrester in the world was dispatched. , so many gold copper coins are all brand new, it is true that you are responsible for all these dirty things that happened recently!"

The nameless gambler smiled, "Yes, so what if I did it?"

Ling Qingshan pulled away the chair, threw a thick stack of banknotes on the table, and said in an extremely vicious tone: "Then add another chip to the game, and I lose. The 10 taels of banknotes and my Take his soul together, but if I win, not only will Liu Linlin's soul return to his body, but your life must also be left to me!"

The nameless gambler smiled slightly and said, "Please."
