Chapter 720: Chapter 349: A Fist Suppresses Ghosts and Gods_1

Jie Susi bandaged the severed part of his finger and was too lazy to pick up cards; he just casually cleaned it a bit and let Lin Baici draw a card.

There was no way he could win anyway!

"Resigned to your fate?"

Li Yintong laughed heartily, "You should’ve done this earlier!"

Lin Baici had been staring at the two ghost cards and probably knew which one he had touched before, but to be safe, he still planned to use the Divine Turtle Shell divination.

Using this taboo thing too much would curse him, increasing the likelihood of bad luck in daily life, such as twisting an ankle while walking, getting burned during a meal in the cafeteria, or finding flies or cockroaches in his food.

Lin Baici tossed the Divine Turtle Shell, and once it stopped moving, it provided an answer.

"The left one!"

Lin Baici drew a card.

It was the White Prince, a successful pairing.

Lin Baici took out the matched pair of cards, tossed them aside, and placed the last remaining card, face down, on the table, "Sorry, but you’ve lost!"

Jie Susi shrugged his shoulders magnanimously and smiled, discarding his ghost card as he leaned back in his chair.

He took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, lit it with a lighter, and took a deep drag before looking at Little Cutie, "Shuffle the cards, shall we continue?"

Little Cutie shuffled the cards with its four hands!

"Big brother, let’s start!"

Little Cutie did not sympathize with Jie Susi for having several fingers severed and still let Lin Baici draw a card to start the game.

Lin Baici did the divination.

"Just draw any, he’s going to lose no matter what," the Divine Turtle Shell said, changing everyone’s expressions abruptly.

"Brother Lin, what’s going on?"

Li Yintong was worried.

"I don’t know!"

Lin Baici’s brow was slightly furrowed. He took out the Bodhi Messenger’s Cassock from the Black Tripod Bowl and draped it over his shoulders; then he randomly selected a card to draw and began touching the cards.

"..."

Everyone’s gaze immediately fixed on the Kasaya that Lin Baici was wearing.

It was beautiful!

Once the man from the Nine States put it on, covering his eight-pack abs and tall stature, he instantly lost his fierce dominance and gained a touch of bookish grace.

"Brother Lin, with that look, any temple’s abbot who sees you would have to step down!"

Li Yintong remarked, "You’re practically Tang Sanzang!"

"That’s right, without you in the temple, I wouldn’t worship!"

Huang Jinxiang complimented, "Not a single yuan of incense money would I give them!"

"If you were to go fetch scriptures from the West, those female demons on the road wouldn’t bother snatching Tang Monk, they’d definitely snatch you. Why eat you when they can take you home to play with?"

The redhead teased.

Jie Susi stared at Lin Baici, with a solemn gaze. Donning such an item in this crisis surely meant it was a mighty taboo thing.

The cards were all drawn!

This time, Jie Susi had three cards in hand, while Lin Baici and Little Cutie each had four.

"You go first!"

Little Cutie nodded at Jie Susi.

As Jie Susi looked at the cards in Lin Baici’s hand, about to draw his choice, Bath spoke up, "Team Leader Jie Susi, could I ask you to concede?"

Jie Susi glanced coldly at Bath.

Bath continued persuasively despite feeling apprehensive, "Lin Baici has already won one round, and if he wins another, this ghost card game will end!"

"If it goes on, we’ll have to play three more rounds, and then you’ll definitely have to cut off more fingers. Instead of enduring such torment, why not give up now?"

Upon hearing this, Huang Jinxiang shook his head speechlessly, "Do you think he’s a fool who sacrifices himself for others?"

Jie Susi was in pain from the finger cutting, but with his willpower, he would definitely endure it. As long as there was a chance to turn the game around, he would not miss it.

The others remained silent; this was also why they hadn’t urged Jie Susi to give up.

Why should someone sacrifice themselves for strangers who were neither kith nor kin?

"Bath, remember what you just said!"

Jie Susi drew a card.

It was the Wand!

He smiled because he already had that card in hand, but the moment he thought to throw out the matched pair, the Wand symbol on the card he had just drawn changed.

It transformed into a King, which he didn’t have in his hand!

Jie Susi’s face darkened instantly. First, he glanced at Lin Baici, doubting his capability to tamper with the cards, so he turned his gaze to Little Cutie.

"What’s this?"

"I caught a glimpse, it seems the image on the card changed?"

"So it can change? Doesn’t that mean there’s no way to win?"

Everyone was both shocked and furious.

They had seen cheating before but never such blatant cheating. The little monster was giving them no chance at all.

"Isn’t it more interesting now?"

Little Cutie smiled sweetly.

"How could this be interesting?"

Jie Susi retorted.

"I don’t really care about winning or losing, but big brother’s fingers are so pretty, I want them, so I have to make sure you don’t match the cards, to keep the game going for a few more rounds!"

Little Cutie glanced at Lin Baici’s hands, then covered its cheeks with two of its hands.

Oh dear,

I’ve cheated, how embarrassing!

But it’s my game to control!

Everyone was stunned and turned to look at Lin Baici’s hands.

Elegant, fair, strong,

They really were quite nice to look at.

"Being caressed by these hands must feel amazing,"

Li Yintong murmured and then shuddered at the thought of Lin Baici’s ten fingers being chopped off, leaving only his bare palms.

Please, no!

"If he gives you all ten fingers, can this round be considered a draw?"

Jie Susi had come up with a way to get through this.

"You win is fine with me!" said Little Cutie, playing with a ghost card in its hand, "But I prefer toys I win myself. Come on, no more nonsense. Big brother, hurry up and draw!"

Little Cutie held out the cards with two hands towards Lin Baici, its gaze slipping over Lin Baici’s fingers.
