Chapter 131 Heath: Let’s Play Landlord~
Heath sat on the floor bored. Although the scenery outside was indeed very nice, after looking at it for a while, Heath gradually felt bored. It would still take a day to get from Heath's location to the headquarters of the Quartz Alliance. Heath planned to use this time to find some games to pass the time.
After thinking for a while, Heath took out a set of playing cards from his backpack.
"Trainer, why don't you have any SWITCH, PS5 or other game consoles? I never thought that you would have to play poker." Zoroark said with a melancholy look on his face. His resentful eyes made Heath touch his nose embarrassedly.
What should he say? After all, in order to pay off his debts, he basically saved as much as he could, and now he doesn't have much savings, so those game consoles he played in his previous life are naturally not within his consideration.
"Next time, if we make money this time when we go to the Quartz headquarters, we will buy it." Heath looked at his living room. Snow Snorlax was still sleeping, which made Heath a little amused. This big guy really sleeps too much. However, Heath remembered that Snow Snorlax sleeps to slow down the energy consumption in the body so that he will not be so easily hungry.
It is probably for this reason that Scimitarmon is always snoring. After all, sleeping can indeed reduce energy consumption. Scimitars are big eaters. When Seath decided to capture Scimitarmon, the only thing he was worried about was whether he could feed it.
"Fat Onion Ducky, come and play cards." Heath shuffled the cards and took out Ho-Oh and Lugia. These two cards represent the big devil and the little devil in the Kanto region.
"Onion?" The Farfetch'd looked at Heath curiously. It didn't quite understand what Heath was going to play with these cards.
"Today we are going to play Landlord. The rules are like this: two against one..." Heath explained patiently. There is no Landlord in the world of Pokémon. What is more popular here is drawing turtles and a kind of Monopoly game. Heath didn't really understand how to play Monopoly with a deck of cards, but they did have a lot of fun.
Fortunately, the rules of Landlord are very simple. After a brief explanation, Zoroark and Farfetch'd were able to get started, while Charmander watched the game beside Heath while holding dumbbells.
"De de de de de de ~" Heath hummed a tune and began to shuffle the cards. He still had some confidence in his card skills. After all, playing Landlord used to be a dangerous thing. If he won, it was okay, but if he lost, it would be really fatal.
After all, if you lose, you have to drink beer, one cup after another. That night, Heath and his roommates drank two bottles of beer, and the bathroom was a mess, which was unbearable to look at.
"So what is the punishment?" Zoroya asked Heath curiously.
Heath was stunned for a moment. He had not really thought about the punishment yet. After all, there was no beer on his food truck. And if he put a note on it, both Zoroark and Farfetch'd were furry, so it would be quite difficult to put a note on them.
"How about this? If you lose, trainer, you just take off one piece of clothing!" Zoroark looked at Heath excitedly. Farfetch'd looked at Zoroark strangely, then at Heath. Its eyes became terrified, and it subconsciously moved back.
"No, I only have a few pieces of clothes, and where did you learn this perverted way of playing?" Heath rolled his eyes. There was something wrong with this guy Zoroark. If he had known this, he would not have bought her that book.
Previously, Soraya used his weekly salary to buy several novels, one of which was called "I Exposed the Cheating Alakazam, He Spread His Legs on My Bed".
God knows why there is a novel with such a long name, but if you think about it, all novels nowadays seem to follow this pattern, and naming has become simpler. As long as the name is a little longer and a pair of quotation marks are added, it can be made into the title of any novel.
"Hmph, boring." Zoroark curled his lips in boredom.
"Let's just do this, the loser drinks a glass of water." Heath took out a small cup. The cup had to be smaller, otherwise if it was too big, people wouldn't be able to drink it after losing once or twice.
Farfetch patted his chest confidently, and Heath couldn't help but smile when he looked at Farfetch and Zorua, then began to shuffle and deal the cards.
…
"Three with one!" Zorolla threw the cards on the floor confidently. Heath took a look. Well, three threes with a four. It seems that Zorolla's cards are pretty good. However, Heath is the landlord, so he is not in a hurry.
"Congee~" Farfetch'd also proudly took a picture of his cards. Three twos and a big demon Phoenix-Oh. Heath showed a satisfied smile.
"I'm going to bomb! Blow up the order! Do you want it or not?" Heath proudly threw his bomb. Zoroark looked at the Farfetch'd with a mad look on his face, gritting his teeth, and he looked like he wished he could eat duck meat tonight.
Charmander looked at Zoroark with sympathy. Zoroark's belly had grown bigger. Although the punishment given by Heath was very small, it could even be described as negligible, but Zoroark couldn't stand it and kept losing.
Heath watched Zoroar drink two glasses of water with a look of grief and indignation on his face, and he laughed even more happily. After playing for a while, Heath knew that the key point of this game of Landlord was not on others, but on Farfetch'd. It could be said that if Farfetch'd became a farmer, the difficulty would be doubled.
Farfetch'd always does some weird things, like three twos with a king, or using the king to suppress his teammate's two, and then playing a three.
Heath quickly noticed this problem, and then the game became simple. Heath frantically grabbed the landlord, and then relied on Farfetch'd to sell his teammates to win continuously.
"I don't accept it! You cheated! Why are you the landlord every time!" Zoroark looked at Heath with resentment.
"How should I know? Maybe this is my fate." Heath shrugged and laughed. He would not admit that he did use that little trick.
After all, neither Farfetch'd nor Zoroark can shuffle the cards, and shuffling the cards is really too difficult.
Looking at Zoroark with a bloated belly and an expression that looked like he had to pee urgently, Heath touched his nose. He thought that he should give way to Zoroark, otherwise Zoroark would really cry.
With a "buzz" sound, Heath subconsciously covered his ears. When he turned his head, he saw that Shekabimon had woken up and was stretching there comfortably. However, Shekabimon soon realized that he had done something wrong and lowered his head embarrassedly.
"Snorlax, do you want to play games?" Heath asked SnowSnorlax.
