When Luo Chao heard that Zuo Dahai was willing to disclose the specific content of this gambling game, he immediately sat up straight, turning his ear to listen attentively.

However, after waiting for a while, Zuo Dahai had not spoken yet, which inevitably made Luo Chao feel a little puzzled.

So, Luo Chao tentatively asked Zuo Dahai, "Brother Zuo, you are…"

However, before Luo Chao could finish his question, Zuo Dahai spoke first, interrupting him.

"I can tell you, but..." Zuo Dahai glanced at Tang Tianyi beside Luo Chao, "I can't tell her."

"Hmph, putting on an act!" Although Tang Tianyi had been pretending to watch the scenery outside the car, in fact, her attention was focused on Zuo Dahai and Luo Chao.

Are you kidding, Tang Tianyi has such a serious curiosity, she is even interested in ghost stories, let alone this so-called demon-infested gambling game.

After Tang Tianyi said that, Luo Chao felt a bit helpless, thinking that the two of them really were at odds today, constantly at each other's throats.

Luo Chao was thinking about how to mediate between them, but Zuo Dahai's next words stunned him.

Only to see Zuo Dahai chuckle and say, "Miss, although we seemed to be at odds just now, I actually didn't take it to heart. At my age, how could I really get angry with a little girl like you, right?"

"So, the reason I can't tell you the specifics of this gambling game is not that I want to mystify and make things difficult for you. It's really because this gambling game's content is too tempting, and I don't want to hurt you!"

When Zuo Dahai said this, Luo Chao understood.

It turned out that because Luo Chao was already half a person in the gambling world, Zuo Dahai telling him the details of the gambling game was not a problem.

However, though Tang Tianyi is Luo Chao's friend, she is not a person from the gambling world. If Zuo Dahai were to just say it, he was afraid of inadvertently pulling an innocent person in.

It's just that Zuo Dahai must not know Tang Tianyi's genius, otherwise, he wouldn't have so many worries.

After listening to Zuo Dahai's explanation, Tang Tianyi did not respond, still ignoring him while looking out the window with a cold expression.

Meanwhile, Luo Chao suddenly came up with a strategy.

He whispered a few words into Tang Tianyi's ear, after which Tang Tianyi gave Zuo Dahai a glare, then nodded at Luo Chao, and put on her headphones, seemingly listening to music on her phone.

After Tang Tianyi finished doing all that, Luo Chao turned his attention back to Zuo Dahai.

Luo Chao said, "Alright Brother Zuo, I've persuaded her. She's now put on her headphones and is listening to rock music, so feel free to speak up!"

"Uh... okay!" Seeing that Tang Tianyi seemed to have compromised, Zuo Dahai then agreed and began to speak.

"Actually, the content of this gambling game is that on a huge table, a hexagram-shaped container is placed. The container is made of transparent glass, and each corner of the hexagram has an entrance where a person can reach in a hand."

"In the center of the hexagram is placed a little white mouse that hasn't eaten for many days, and each gambler participating in the game must place a piece of cheese on the hand they stretch inside."

"In this way, the little white mouse that hasn't eaten for many days will inevitably run towards one of the points of the hexagram because it can smell the aroma of the cheese."

"However, here comes the interesting part of the game: The hexagram-shaped container is configured such that only one path leads to the area where the little white mouse is from each gambler's hand."

"This means that the little white mouse can only choose one path to go in and eat the cheese, and the gambler whose cheese the mouse eats is the winner of this round, while the other five gamblers are the losers!"

"In this game, the victor has control over the losers, but it is limited to one individual, and the extent of control is determined by the victor's wager."

"If the winner bets one hundred thousand U.S. dollars before the game starts, after winning, they can demand the same amount of one hundred thousand U.S. dollars from any one of the five losers."

"And if the winner bets their life at the start of the game, after winning, they can claim the life of any one of the five losers!"

Terror unparalleled!

That was Luo Chao's first reaction upon hearing the content of this game.

At the same time, Luo Chao understood how the gambling mogul back then used gambling techniques to win this game.

Because, from the moment Luo Chao knew that the gambling game used little white mice for gambling, he understood everything!

Luo Chao knew that the genetic sequence of little white mice is quite similar to that of humans; many medical research and clinical experiments are conducted using little white mice.

Using little white mice for genetics experiments is great because their whole genome has a high degree of similarity to humans, and many human incurable diseases can find similar traits on little white mice for experimentation to discover therapeutic genes.

Precisely because the genetic sequence of little white mice is similar to humans, that gambling mogul must have used the highest level of gambling technique—Hypnosis!

Hypnosis uses methods like suggestion to put the person being hypnotized into a state that allows for magical effects to achieve some purpose.

Once hypnotized, a person's autonomous judgment and volition weaken or disappear, and perception and cognition may become distorted or vanish.

During hypnosis, the hypnotized individual will follow all suggestions or instructions of the hypnotist and respond.

However, generally, if the person being hypnotized is internally resistant to the person performing the hypnosis, then the hypnosis is difficult to succeed.

Moreover, hypnosis, a high-level gambling technique, is usually used only on humans, and animals with different brains and genes from humans are hardly hypnotized.

But little white mice are different; they have a genetic sequence very similar to humans, fitting the genetic conditions to be hypnotized by humans.

However, the brain of a little white mouse is much smaller than that of a human, so the resistance and will of a little white mouse are far weaker than that of a human.

Plus, as Zuo Dahai just said, these little white mice used for the gambling game are ones that have been starved for many days.

Hunger impairs a creature's brain, dulls their rational thinking ability, and weakens their will, making those little white mice more susceptible to being hypnotized by that gambling mogul!
