Chapter 110 Ace of Spades

The little wind transmitted the image of the rats swarm gnawing on the barrier of the Ganesh Temple into Ao Peng's inner world, allowing Ao Peng to keep track of the progress at all times.

Since the rats commanded by Little Drill were originally blessed by Ganesha, they were almost not at risk of being discovered before they gnawed through the temple barrier.

Of course, even if they discovered it, it would be too late for the other party to come to their rescue, because the head dealer, Su Motan, saw that Ao Peng had already sat down at the gambling table and overlooked the possibility that his own home had been raided.

In this town of Shoucai, don't be greedy; gambling is a sure way to get ripped off.

The greed here doesn't just refer to Ao Peng himself; anyone who is greedy in this town full of incense offerings and greed could easily get trapped.

When Ao Peng sat down at the gambling table, the head dealer Su Motan saw him as someone caught up in the game, unaware that he was also caught up in an even bigger one.

The Kitchen God statue that Ao Peng carried on his body grew increasingly hot, as the time approached Chen Shi (7-9 AM), the best time for the Kitchen God to ascend to heaven.

At the gambling table, after Little Chaos checked the cards, Rab, a follower of Ganesh, also sent his god to check the cards in a perfunctory manner. His god was just Lakshmi, one of Lakshmi's many incarnations, who also possessed incredible merits and was a symbol of luck and good fortune.

After the cards were checked, the head dealer, Somotan, began dealing the cards, first giving each person a face-down card, and then starting to distribute the cards.

A spade ace slid down the table to Ao Peng's hand. Ao Peng gently pressed it with his finger, turning the spade ace into a winning hand.

He pressed it down under his hand.

Similarly, the Ace of Hearts also slipped from Somotan's hand and into Rab's.

This time we're playing Hong Kong Stud Poker. Five cards are dealt. The highest hands are, in order, Royal Flush, Straight Flush, Four of a Kind, Full House, Flush, Straight. If all hands are Royal Flush, then the suit is compared, with spades being the highest.

Su Motan was not surprised by this result. Ao Peng was currently blessed with good fortune by a certain deity, although Labu also had the blessing of Ganesh.

However, this town of wealth is Chinese territory. Although Ganesha was granted the title of a righteous god of China through Buddhism, his control over the wealth of this territory is far inferior to that of the many gods of wealth here. It is reasonable for him to lose a round. Moreover, the first card was just bait. Even if Ao Peng wins a round or two first, it will not matter.

[Lucky heir, an Ace of Spades has fallen into your hand. If I were you—]

Before the system's text had even finished appearing, Ao Peng spoke up, "Five million incense offerings."

Seeing Ao Peng's decisiveness, even the system changed its expression.

[Excellent successor! Your spirit is admirable, your ambition has overwhelmed the other side, and I can't help but cheer for you!]

Although everyone present was mentally prepared, when Ao Peng directly picked up an Ace of Spades and went all in, bringing the game to its climax, everyone still slightly propped themselves up and looked at the gambling table in front of them.

Rab glanced at the Ace of Hearts in front of him, then glared hatefully at Ao Peng.

The last time he played cards with Ao Peng, he realized that the man in front of him was a novice who relied entirely on luck to gamble.

As a seasoned card player, he naturally disliked this lucky guy, but there were ways to counter him.

Even if a novice has the best luck and keeps getting new cards, there will always be a time when he gets a bad hand; it's a matter of probability.

Therefore, in reality, as long as you master the rhythm of the game, you can easily tell whether a novice has a good or bad hand by observing their eyes and expressions.

This method remains effective even in the extraordinary modern world.

In this round of gambling, not only did Ao Peng have a god of wealth standing behind him, but Labu also had a great god, Ganesh, standing behind him.

Even the power of a great god is not limitless. When gods clash, there will always be a difference in fortune. As long as you seize this opportunity, Rab is confident that he can help his god win this game.

"Would you dare go all in with the Ace of Spades?"

Raab asked tentatively.

Ao Peng brandished the Ace of Spades in his hand and laughed, "The Ace of Spades, the highest card in the deck of fifty-two, I have no reason not to go all in. If you're not sure you can call, then don't play. By the way, I have a meeting around nine in the morning, so I can probably only play with you until then!"

At this moment, Ao Peng seemed to be possessed by the God of Gamblers and the Saint of Gamblers, and the Ace of Spades kept waving in front of Labu's eyes.

In recent years, Hong Kong movies have been popular all over Asia, and of course, I've seen God of Gamblers and God of Gamblers II.

He even knew the plot of the story by heart because he loved gambling.

He remembered that the God of Gamblers' first hand with the Ace of Spades was a bluff, where he placed a large bet and broke his opponent's winning streak.

The gambling master Stephen Chow relied on his special abilities, so he went all in at the beginning. However, after realizing that his opponent was also a top-notch opponent with special abilities, he wanted to take back half of his chips.

There's truth and falsehood in this.

Is the opponent trying to overwhelm him with an Ace of Spades to gain an advantage in the battle between the gods behind him, or does the opponent simply believe in the power of the gods behind him?

Because of his gambling skills, Raab became somewhat indecisive and started thinking more and more about it.

Ao Peng didn't urge him. He put down the cards in his hand and continued to draw the head god.

The victory in this game never lay in the game itself; the Indian guy on the other side, Barat, only saw the game, so no matter what he thought, he was just trapped.

Especially Ao Peng's last sentence, he said he only played until nine o'clock in the morning before leaving.

After the entrance process, it's almost eight o'clock now.

In the crowded stands, the God of Wealth, disguised as a peddler, was distributing basic skills to novice players. When he saw Ao Peng holding an Ace of Spades and going all in, he chuckled to himself, "This kid."

He understood Ao Peng's idea and naturally cooperated fully. As a result, waves of invisible wealth began to surge, flowing from all directions of the old land, eroding the entire treasure-guarding town's great formation like a storm.

The mythical beasts atop the casinos couldn't withstand such overwhelming wealth. Normally, they could manage absorbing the fortune of ordinary people, but when a True Lord-level fortune surged in, the bloodthirsty bats and auspicious toads instantly turned to dust, forming an invisible gust of wind that, carrying dust and sand, blasted open the casino doors. It surged in from behind Ao Peng, forcefully rushed into the hall, and headed straight for the statue of Ganesha directly opposite!

In an instant, the weather changed dramatically. In the hall, the statue of Ganesh burst forth with brilliant light, and illusory golden lotuses bloomed out of thin air, resisting the surging gray sand and gale. For a time, the two were evenly matched!
