17, Chapter 017

[Chapter 17, Plum Blossom Secret Room Puzzle Solving]

The young man guarding the gate: "In the fifth round, No. 1 won. Since No. 5 did not lose everything, both of them can enter the next round."

The two girls present looked at Xiao Lou and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Xiao Lou smiled and took back the 5,000 ante bet in the fifth round, the 4,000 he followed, and the 4,000 followed by No. 5, for a total of 13,000 gold coins.

Guarding boy: "In the sixth round, the game begins. The cards are dealt randomly."

The previous rounds of dealing have always been counterclockwise, and now one round has passed.

The cards were dealt randomly in this round, and the number 7 happened to be random.

Girl No. 7 discarded her cards directly, Xiao Lou folded immediately, and Yu Hanjiang, No. 2 and No. 3, also folded. The sum of the points of the cards thrown into the waste card pool by the four of them actually exceeded ten and a half, and they were all 7+

Bad cards like 8,9+5.

It's No. 5's turn.

Because the other four players all busted their cards and it was past 10:30, No. 5 did nothing and simply won, taking the ante bet of 5,000 gold coins.

At this point in the poker game, even the dullest person will understand how to survive.

If your cards are not good, just give up, and you will only lose the ante bet of 1,000 gold coins. When you have to call, follow less, it is important to save your life - as long as you have gold coins in your hand, you will not be eliminated.

But each player has only five chances to discard.

No. 5 went all-in in the first round, called in the fifth round, and won in the sixth round. He only folded three times and had the opportunity to continue folding. He had more than 10,000 gold coins in his hand, so in the seventh round he only had to

Just discard the cards and you can clear the level immediately.

The remaining four people have all used up the number of discards.

In the seventh round, four people must follow the bet at the same time.

But by this time, everyone has formed a tacit understanding - follow the minimum amount to save your life.

The order of dealing cards is random, and Xiao Lou is randomly assigned in the seventh round.

The cards were dealt at the beginning, and Xiao Lou got an a.

Gatekeeper: "Second round of dealing, please choose number 1."

Xiao Lou looked at his cards, glanced across the audience, and suddenly smiled and said: "No cards, follow the bet of 1000."

Everyone was stunned.

If you want to get 10.5 points, you need at least two cards. This is the second round, and he only has one card in his hand, why don't he want a card? Could it be that the card points he got are too high, and he is afraid that it will exceed ten and a half after the card is taken.

? Or should I say...

Girl No. 2 sitting on the right rolled her eyes, and suddenly her eyes lit up, as if she realized something, and then said: "Follow the bet of 1000, no cards!"

No. 3 Yu Hanjiang understood instantly: "Follow the bet, no cards."

No. 5 shrugged and just discarded the cards to pass the level.

Girl No. 7 also understood and threw a gold coin into the prize pool: "Follow 1000, no cards."

Xiao Lou took the lead in stopping asking for cards in the second round. This was a hint to everyone - don't ask for cards. Everyone stopped playing at the same time, so that the game would end in the second round and go directly to the banker, and the loss would be reduced to

lowest.

At this time, no one had any transfer beads, so it was almost impossible to get the ten-thirty points by relying on natural luck.

In the last round, four people must follow the bet. According to the rules of the game, for every additional round of dealing, an additional 1,000 gold coins will be required to follow the bet. Why throw the gold coins away to gamble on luck? Isn't it good to keep them in your hand?

At this moment, the four players unanimously chose not to take cards at the same time.

The game ends automatically.

The gatekeeper said: "The dealing of cards is over, please show your cards."

No. 1 Xiaolou: Ace of Hearts;

Girl No. 2: a of diamonds;

No. 3 Yu Hanjiang: ace of spades;

No. 7 ponytail girl: plum blossom a.

——The cards in the hands of the four people are actually the same point a!

Since No. 5 folded and the other four players tied, there is no winner in this round and the gold coins bet will be recovered by the gatekeeper.

Sure enough, the young man said: "In the seventh round, the game is over."

He took the gold coins on the table back into his hand, and then said: "Congratulations to the five of you for successfully clearing the Plum Blossom 2 Secret Room [Challenge at 10:30]. The remaining gold coins in your hands are the rewards for you in this level."

Everyone: "..."

Thanks to Xiao Lou taking the lead in suspending cards in the second round, everyone lost only 2,000 gold coins in this round. If they continued to ask for cards and kept following the bet until the fifth round, the loss would be as high as 5,000.

When you are sure that everyone will be alive - don't be greedy and stop your losses in time, which is the wisest decision.

Girl No. 2 sitting next to her looked at Xiao Lou with admiration and secretly gave him a thumbs up. He took the lead in suspending trading and successfully saved everyone an extra 3,000 gold coins.

At this moment, No. 5 suddenly smiled and said: "Meihua, you have been secretly controlling the cards in this game, right?"

The plum blossom boy looked back at him expressionlessly.

No. 5 continued: "I have played at least thousands of card games. The probability of the 'king' hitting the 'five men' is less than one in 10,000. In the last game, everyone started with all the cards in their hand.

It’s a—unless you’re controlling the cards, there’s no chance of such a coincidence.”

When he said this, everyone pricked up their ears, and Xiao Lou also raised his head.

Xiao Lou had discovered this a long time ago.

If it weren't for the gatekeepers controlling the cards, it would be difficult to explain the crashes in the second and third games.

With the transfer beads, you can be sure to get good cards.

But when two people use the Fortune Bead at the same time - who has better cards, is it really just luck?

Not really.

Who to keep and who to eliminate, the initiative in this game has always been in the hands of the plum blossom gatekeeper.

In the second game, Yu Hanjiang and No. 6 used the transfer beads at the same time. No. 6’s hands were shaking nervously throughout the whole process, but Yu Hanjiang was always calm and composed. The gatekeeper decided to eliminate No. 6, so the card control allowed Yu Hanjiang to get the king, and 6

No. was eliminated.

In the third round, the thin girl No. 2 and the curly-haired woman No. 4 used the transport beads at the same time. The mentality of No. 4 exploded and she went all-in at the beginning. Although the girl No. 2 was thin, she was stable until the end - so the card of No. 4 was controlled by the gatekeeper.

, less than number 2, will be eliminated.

The coincidence of two consecutive games makes no sense at all in terms of probability.

Coupled with the words of the gatekeeper: "Luck is also a kind of strength."

Xiao Lou understood the secret of the Plum Blossom Chamber at that time - the gatekeeper was controlling the cards and eliminating people based on their strength.

Keywords: luck, strength.

The Plum Blossom Secret Chamber does not depend on luck, but on strength.

In the fourth game, Xiao Lou hinted that No. 7 would use a transfer bead. No one collided with No. 7, and the girl simply won.

In the fifth round, No. 5 called, not to force Xiao Lou away, but because No. 5 also saw through the secret of the Plum Blossom Chamber and was conducting an experiment. He had 14,000 gold coins in his hand, and he would not be beaten even if he lost 4,000.

There is nothing wrong with elimination and experimentation. Once Xiao Lou cannot stabilize his mentality at this time and the two of them compete, it is very likely that the gatekeeper will control Xiao Lou's cards and eliminate Xiao Lou from the game.

Fortunately, Xiao Lou held his own.

Transfer beads are not used blindly before the cards are dealt.

Instead, it depends on the timing and the cards in your hand before deciding whether to use it or not.

If you use the transfer beads blindly before the cards are dealt, you are really giving your life to unknown "luck". Maybe the gatekeeper will be unhappy and just give you a bunch of aa222.

Only after you draw two cards and then use the transfer beads, can you guess the type of card you will finally get based on the cards in your hand - there is always a list of five card types on the big screen, that is

For comparison purposes.

For example, if you start with j, q, and then use the transfer beads, the best card type is "jqk人小五".

In the fifth game, Xiao Lou started with the King of Clubs and the Ace of Clubs. At this time, he used the transfer beads again, and the best card could only be the "King of Heaven" - he was sure that he would get the King of Heaven, so he calmly followed the bet.

At the end.

The gatekeeper was obviously very satisfied with Xiao Lou's performance and directly handed him a hand full of King of Clubs cards.



When the young man heard No. 5's question, he glanced across the audience calmly: "Who else has questions about the card game?"

Xiao Lou smiled and said: "The four secret rooms have their own rules. The Plum Blossom Secret Room will definitely not eliminate people based on luck. I agree with No. 5. This game is not a gambling game, but a game of competing mentality.

You have been controlling all of our hands since the first game. In the fifth game, I first touched the King of Clubs, and then the Ace of Clubs. I guessed that you would give me all the King of Clubs, right?

"

Yu Hanjiang: "..."

No wonder Xiao Lou could be so calm, it turned out that he had already guessed that he would win.

Thinking back carefully, every time the young man shuffled the cards, the rapidly overlapping cards between his slender fingers were dazzling. Logically speaking, if he shuffled the cards so many times, he would definitely shuffle the 52 cards evenly, and there would be no one at all.

I happened to get a234k, and someone happened to get jjjjk.

In terms of probability, this possibility may not happen even if the cards are dealt tens of thousands of times. Today's card game happened many times, and in the last game, everyone's initial cards were all aces, which couldn't be more obvious.

There is only one explanation - the gatekeeper is manipulating the game.

He can secretly arrange the order of points in a deck of cards, and whoever he wants to get an a can immediately get an a.

Why license control?

Everyone also recalled his calm words when woman No. 4 questioned him: "Luck is also a kind of strength."

I see!

The gatekeeper judges everyone's strength and controls everyone's hand card points, allowing the stronger person to survive to the end.

The Plum Blossom Chamber of Secrets actually tests everyone's psychological quality.

Girl No. 7 was startled, and suddenly said softly: "So, there is actually a perfect way to clear the Plum Blossom Chamber. If there is a tacit understanding among the 7 of us at the beginning, each person will take turns to use the transfer beads in a round. Each person will win once, and the others will give up.

Cards or just follow the bet of 1,000, so that after the seven games, everyone has gold coins in their hands and no one will be eliminated."

"It makes sense." Girl No. 2 echoed in a low voice: "It's a pity that we don't know each other, and we are suddenly dragged into the gambling game, and there is no tacit understanding to live together... People are selfish, and they all think about how to win, and

I don’t think about letting others win with me.”

The girl's words hit the nail on the head, causing the scene to fall into silence again.

The seven people cooperate tacitly, take turns using the transfer beads, and each wins a round. This is the way to successfully clear the Plum Blossom Chamber. However, who can selflessly think of "win-win" at the beginning? Even if you think so, how can you guarantee the rest?

Will six people cooperate?

People's hearts are unpredictable. Unless everyone knows each other and has a tacit understanding of "living together", it is impossible to successfully clear the Plum Blossom Chamber.

When the young man heard this, the corners of his pursed lips finally curved. He nodded to everyone and said: "You are very smart - yes, I have been controlling the cards from the beginning, who to keep and who to eliminate,

It all depends on your performance. Of the seven people who came to break through the level yesterday, only three survived until the end. If you can survive five people, you are already considered very good."

Everyone: "..."

When Xiao Lou heard this, he felt a chill running down his spine.

The gatekeeper secretly controls the cards. Is this playing into the hands of everyone?!

The young man seemed to see through Xiao Lou's thoughts and said: "The D-level plum blossom chamber is the preliminary screening of challengers. I will eliminate the contestants by observing your strength and controlling your cards. This is only fair. If you really bet on luck,

Your luck may not be good. People like No. 4 and No. 6 who have poor psychological quality and are not suitable for the card world should be eliminated as early as possible. It is a kindness to them. "

Xiao Lou frowned and said: "How can you ensure that the elimination of players depends on everyone's strength, not your personal preferences?"

No. 4 stood up and argued with him, but he kicked No. 4 in the next round. Strictly speaking, the thin girl No. 2 is not suitable to continue to survive in the card world. No. 2 and No. 4 PK, and everyone will be eliminated.

That makes sense.

The young man said: "In my hand, I have the clearance scores of all of you in other secret rooms."

He waved his hand casually, and the clearance scores such as S, A, and B appeared in front of everyone. The scores of the eliminated No. 4 and No. 6 in the first three secret rooms were all C...

The young man said: "I know the gatekeepers of hearts, diamonds, and spades. The Club 2 secret room is a preliminary screening level, and some players with poor performance will definitely be eliminated. As a gatekeeper, I will based on your comprehensive

You will decide whether to stay or leave based on your performance. Setting up a gambling game is the final test of your psychological quality - do you still have any questions?"

Everyone: "..."

At this point, everyone understands the rules of the Plum Blossom Chamber.

The D-level secret room is the simplest, but everyone thinks that the card game in the club secret room is too complicated. When they hear about playing cards, their first reaction is whether their luck will be bad? This subconscious thought will make everyone

become nervous.

In fact, at the moment of entering the Plum Blossom Chamber, who will stay and who will be eliminated? The Plum Blossom boy already has a comprehensive evaluation report card in his hands.

The Club 2 secret room is made into a poker game, giving everyone the last chance to make a comeback.

As long as you can stabilize your mentality in the extremely stressful card game, you can get good cards. Even if your results in the first three levels are not good, you can still stay in Plum Blossom Level.

People like No. 4 and No. 6, who have poor psychological quality, have a very difficult time in the first few levels. When encountering a tense club game, their mentality is more likely to collapse, and it is impossible to survive to the end. No. 5 is completely the opposite -

His score in the heart level is c, the diamond score is c, and the spade score is a. He is really brave enough to survive the club level. He relies solely on psychological warfare to change his fate at the beginning.

Girl No. 7 looked at Xiao Lou and said softly: "Thank you." If Xiao Lou hadn't seen through the rules, hinted her to use the transfer beads, and actively folded the cards to avoid crashing with her, she would have been eliminated next. It can be said that,

Xiao Lou won it as a gift to her.

Xiao Lou smiled: "You're welcome, the secret rooms in the future will be more difficult, you have to be careful."

Girl No. 7 nodded slightly: "I know."

The room fell silent again.

The plum-blossom boy glanced at everyone and said calmly: "After this level, you should have realized that the plum-blossom secret room, as a [challenge secret room], will be a direct confrontation between challengers. When playing cards, or other confrontational situations, just go

If you enter the Plum Blossom Chamber, you may be eliminated - before entering the Plum Blossom Chamber in the future, you must be mentally prepared to never return."

The five survivors were so frightened that they really didn’t want to experience Plum Blossom Pass again.

At this moment, Yu Hanjiang, who had been silent all the time, suddenly said: "The four D-level secret rooms are all finished. Can we form a team for the next C-level secret room?" After saying this, he glanced at Xiao Lou.

Xiao Lou immediately understood and asked: "Can the contract needed to form a team be purchased now?"

I counted the gold coins in my hand and found exactly 10,000 - I could finally buy the contract!
