The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

The others were taken aback when they heard the word "contract".

Girl No. 2 asked suspiciously: "What is the contract?"

The boy explained: "The Plum Blossom Secret Room will match challengers with the same progress in the secret room. The five of you have cleared all the D-level secret rooms. Starting from the C-level secret room, it is a mode of multi-person teaming and cooperating to break through the level. The contract It is a must-have prop for team formation.”

The girl said: "Then what if you choose the Plum Blossom Chamber from the beginning? Can you form a team with others after clearing the level?"

"No. I will choose the players from the Chamber of Plum Blossoms at the beginning. I will control the cards to see their performance, and we will eliminate some players with poor mental quality. They can keep the money they win from playing cards, and find someone who wants to form a team later. The gatekeepers purchase the contract." The young man glanced over the crowd and said, "You five, the current progress is C-level secret room, you can buy it directly."

He lightly raised his hand, and three contracts appeared on the table.

The primary contract book is worth 1 gold coins, and it allows two players to form a team.The intermediate contract book is 5 gold coins, allowing five players to establish a contract relationship.The high-level contract book is ridiculously expensive, requiring 18 gold coins, and allows 8 to 15 players to establish a contract relationship.

Xiao Lou had limited gold coins, and the only person who wanted to bind was Yu Hanjiang. Without hesitation, he directly bought a primary contract book with 1 gold coins.Yu Hanjiang originally wanted to buy a copy, but saw that Xiao Lou had already bought it, so he temporarily put away the gold coins.

After getting the contract, Xiao Lou opened it and looked at it, and found that there were some clauses in it——

"Card Chamber of Secrets Contract Book Rules"

1. Challengers who establish a contractual relationship will immediately become regular teammates.Any teammate who opens a new secret room will summon other teammates on the contract into his own world at the same time, and people in other secret room worlds will not be affected by the summoning.

2. The first person to sign will be the owner of this contract by default.The owner can cross out the names of other people on the contract and terminate the contract relationship with the other party, but this operation is not allowed during the process of the secret room.

3. The contract can be upgraded.The junior contract book binds 2 people, pay 4 gold coins to upgrade to the intermediate level, and pay 17 gold coins to upgrade to the advanced level.After the upgrade, the original contract relationship still exists, but the signature page will be expanded, and new people can continue to be added.

4. Use the special feather pen that comes with the contract to write your name on the signature page, then give the contract to the person you want to invite, and the other party will sign the book after agreeing, and the contract will be automatically generated.

5. Except for the owner, if other signers voluntarily erase their names, or die in the secret room, the contract relationship will be terminated.If the owner of the contract dies in the secret room, the ownership of the contract will be extended to the second signer.

6. Everyone is only allowed to sign one contract in the card world.

7. The last team rule can be added and modified by the owner of the contract.

The texture of this book is very good, like a mysterious magic book in a Western fantasy movie. The pure black leather cover is surrounded by a beautiful pattern border, and in the middle is written "Card Room Contract Book" in seven gold-plated characters.The inside pages of the book are yellowed kraft paper, the rules on the first page are red like blood, and there is a red quill in the middle of the pages.

The second page is for signatures, currently there are only two vacancies for signatures.

Xiao Lou picked up the quill and wrote down the name "Xiao Lou" on the signature page carefully and correctly.

After finishing writing, he smiled and handed the contract directly to Yu Hanjiang in front of the other three.

Yu Hanjiang glanced at Xiao Lou, quickly picked up the quill, wrote "Yu Hanjiang" on the signature space next to Xiao Lou, and handed the contract back to Xiao Lou.

The two did not speak from the beginning to the end, but they had a tacit understanding as if they had discussed it long ago.

The other three: "..."

Are they bound like that?The three onlookers suddenly felt a little envious.

No. 5 said with a half-smile: "No. 1 and No. 3, so you know each other?"

Yu Hanjiang replied with a "hmm" lightly.

No. 5 said: "No wonder, you two kept flirting with each other during the card game."

Xiao Lou: "..."

They just looked at each other a few times, is it that obvious?

The plum blossom boy asked: "For the remaining three, those who need to form a team can find me. If you don't form a team, the next level will be randomly matched with teammates from the single players. There is no guarantee of who will be matched."

The boy consciously assumed the job of "New Village Guide NPC".Although he has some facial paralysis, he is very responsible and explains the rules clearly.

The thin girl No. 2 looked at No. 7 eagerly.Before she could speak, girl No. 7 took the initiative to say: "Let's form a team, but I don't have enough money for 1 gold coins, so I have to chip in to buy a contract book."

No. 2's eyes lit up: "Okay, how far is it?"

The two girls huddled together, pooled money to buy the contract, and quickly signed the book.

Only No. 5 has no teammates left.

He played cards too unrestrainedly, and the two girls didn't dare to form a team with him.

But the man didn't seem to mind, he sat on the chair as leisurely as sitting on his own sofa.

Xiao Lou had an intuition that this braided man was very strong—his thinking was very sharp, and he was bold, daring, and professional in playing cards.Although his results in Hearts, Diamonds and Spades are not very good, but in Plum Blossoms, such a person will definitely become an existence that makes opponents fear—bet your life!Who dares to play so crazy?In case someone uses the Lucky Bead in the first game, he will be all-in at the beginning and he will be finished.

Realizing that Xiao Lou was looking at him, No. 5 blinked and said, "What are you doing? Do you still want to play cards with me?"

Xiao Lou shook his head decisively: "I don't want to."

No. 5 smiled and said: "I will have a chance to drink two cups together in the future." He seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked at the gatekeeper and asked: "By the way, Club A, I have been in the card world for so long, and I have never felt hungry. You guys Don't the people here need to eat?"

Everyone: "..."

After he said this, everyone realized that he was really not hungry at all?It seems that apart from being tired, there is no other feeling?

Everyone looked at the gatekeeper suspiciously.

The plum blossom boy said: "I don't feel hungry because you are still in the D-level secret room. The lowest-level secret room will protect novices and block your physiological and metabolic functions. When you leave the D-level secret room, you will feel hungry, tired, and painful." , to restore the five senses of normal human beings."

Xiao Lou asked: "So, the gold coins rewarded by the Plum Blossom Chamber can also be used to buy food in the card world in the future?"

"Yes. Gold coins are the only currency in circulation in the card world." The gatekeeper looked at the clock on the wall and said, "The room is about to close, and you still have 3 minutes to say goodbye to each other."

There was a brief silence in the room.

After a few seconds, girl No. 2 suddenly whispered: "Hi, everyone, I am a student of Jiangzhou Medical University, I would like to ask, did you come here because of some accident in the real world? "

Girl No. 7: "I'm also a medical student. I got into a car accident on the way back to school by bus."

Girl No. 2 was stunned: "Is it the school bus going to Zhuzhu Street, Jiangzhou City?"

Girl No. 7: "That's right."

Xiao Lou's back stiffened slightly: "You were all in the car at that time?"

The two looked at each other and nodded at the same time.

These two girls are actually students of the University of Medical Sciences, and may have attended Xiao Lou's class.If it was the real world, Xiao Lou would greet them gently.But in today's card world, it's hard for Xiao Lou to protect himself, let alone take care of his students.

Jiangzhou City and Zhuzhu Street happened to be the place where Xiao Lou's accident happened.It seems that many people died in that car accident.

Xiao Lou didn't reveal his identity, but looked back at Yu Hanjiang with questioning eyes.The latter shook his head and said, "I'm not in a car accident. I'll tell you the details later."

No. 5 shrugged: "I have never been to Jiangzhou, but I did have an accident in the real world."

Girl No. 7 seemed to think of something, and suddenly said tremblingly: "So, did my sister come to this world too? She was sitting with me at the time! She is not in good health, how should she live in a place like Zombie Town?" Go on? Could she have been given by the zombies..." Thinking of the cruel scene, her body began to tremble uncontrollably, and she couldn't continue talking.

Girl No. 2 walked over, gently held her hand and said, "Don't be sad, maybe your sister is still alive. Zombie town doesn't have to be violent to pass the level, you can survive if you run fast."

Girl No. 7 let out an "um" and lowered her head in frustration.

Gatekeeper: "The room is closed for 30 seconds, please return to your personal space."

Several people turned around and left. When girl No. 7 came to the door, she suddenly turned around and said, "My sister is Liu Qiao. She is 18 years old and has just entered university. If you meet her in the future, I hope you can tell her—let her Live well!"

She looked at Xiao Lou, obviously she trusted Xiao Lou the most among these people.

Xiao Lou had no choice but to say softly: "Okay. If I meet her, I will definitely tell her. You also have to live well."

The girl nodded towards Xiao Lou, turned around and walked into No. 7 personal space.

No. 5 waved his hand smartly, and said: "Goodbye, everyone. I will continue to plum blossoms in the next level. If you don't want to run into me, you'd better not enter the plum blossom secret room."

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other without saying anything.

The room was about to close, and the two turned around and walked into the personal space corresponding to the number plate.They are in a bound state, no matter which secret room is opened, the other party will be pulled in, so there is no need to rush to talk here.

However, as soon as he entered his personal space, Xiao Lou saw a tall and familiar figure.

Yu Hanjiang: "..."

Xiao Lou: "..."

Why do they meet in personal space?Is this interoperable? !

The two turned their heads to look at the plum blossom boy at the same time.

The young man said blankly: "Because of the contract, you will be bound to break through the level next, I am too lazy to split a club A to take care of the two of you separately. If you have any questions, please ask together, how to choose the secret room behind, You can also discuss and decide."

Xiao Lou suddenly felt that this little guy with facial paralysis was a little cute occasionally.Being lazy, I didn't want to split an extra club ace, so I simply merged the space of the two people in the team.

Exactly what I want!

Xiao Lou immediately took off his mask, and Yu Hanjiang also took off his mask.

The two finally looked at each other and saw the familiar face that had not been seen for a long time.

At this glance, it really seems like a lifetime away.

The faces of each other have not changed, they are still the same as in memory.However, the eyes of both of them were full of exhaustion.

"Long time no see." Yu Hanjiang walked up to Xiao Lou and whispered, "I didn't expect to meet you here."

"I didn't expect it either."

Obviously there is a lot to say, but I don't know where to start, the room fell silent for a while.

After a while, Yu Hanjiang asked, "Did you have a car accident before you came to this world?"

"Well. On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, I had dinner and went to the supermarket to buy something. When I crossed the road, I encountered a bus rushing over. It happened to be the place that the two girls mentioned just now. I think they should be at the same scene. Died in a car accident..." Xiao Lou didn't want to recall the bloody scene anymore, closed his eyes, and asked, "How about you, Team Yu?"

"A bombing case, some accidents happened during the execution of the mission." Just now in front of those people, it is not easy to reveal the identity of the policeman, but there is no need to hide it from Xiao Lou, Yu Hanjiang simply explained, "It was also on the seventh day of the lunar new year. Afternoon, in the suburbs."

"So, you didn't receive my WeChat message?"

"WeChat? My phone keeps silent while I'm on a mission." Yu Hanjiang asked suspiciously, "What do you need from me?"

"It's nothing serious. I just asked you when you have time to have a meal together."

"..." Yu Hanjiang remembered that on the night of the Spring Festival, he had indeed told Xiao Lou to have dinner together another day.

Unfortunately, that meal did not materialize after all.

They had an accident on the same day, and unexpectedly met again in the card world.

Xiao Lou could imagine how dangerous Yu Hanjiang's situation was at that time, he didn't ask about the details of the crime, but walked up to the wall of cards, and changed the subject: "Captain Yu, you must really want to return to the real world, right? "

Yu Hanjiang followed, looked at the huge wall of cards in front of him and asked, "You too?"

Xiao Lou smiled: "Of course."

He turned to look at Yu Hanjiang, stretched out his hand, his gaze was firm: "Let's clear all the card chambers together and get out of here!"

Facing Shang Xiaolou's clear eyes, Yu Hanjiang nodded solemnly, and said in a low voice, "Okay."

The man held Xiao Lou's hand tightly.

The eyes of the two met in the air.

In the unfamiliar card world, meet familiar people.

The body temperature from the other party, passed from the fingertips, seemed to inject a huge force into the depths of the heart.

From now on, they are comrades-in-arms.

No matter the difficulties and obstacles ahead, they will go forward together.
