Just then, a man suddenly appeared behind the curtains in the hotel room.
It was Xia Tianqiong who had teleported there.
He went straight to the bathroom, where he first saw the eerie reflection in the mirror, and then saw Song Shiqiao struggling.
"So there's someone else in your room!"
The strange man seemed somewhat surprised, then his eyes suddenly lit up. "If you don't want to die, you can have him gamble with me for you."
Song Shiqiao looked at Xia Tianqiong in astonishment.
She knew there was no one else in the room, and the door hadn't been opened. How did this person get in?
At this point, he couldn't care less about anything else and hurriedly said, "Don't come any closer! There's a ghost here! Go call the police and come save me!"
Xia Tianqiong stood at the bathroom door, calmly observing the person and the ghost inside. "Tell me, what happened?"
Song Shiqiao stared at him, wondering why he was so calm.
Before she could speak, the eerie smile in the mirror said, "Want to make a bet with me? If you win, you can gain three years of lifespan!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Tianqiong's eyes suddenly lit up, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but turn up.
It turns out to be a life-or-death scam!
This is incredibly strange! Although it's only a wild-level monster, it's highly sought after by all humans, and some are even willing to exchange it for a monster of the level of a monster general.
For no other reason than that it can increase human lifespan.
"Don't listen to its nonsense! Look at me, it stole my lifespan!" Song Shiqiao couldn't help but remind her, "Go call the police, don't just stand here like an idiot!"
Xia Tianqiong shook her head. "The police can't save you."
Seeing that he remained calm and composed, Song Shi suddenly felt a glimmer of hope.
"Then can you save me?"
“Saving people will create karma, so I don’t intend to save you.”
Xia Tianqiong's nonchalant tone gave Song Shiqiao both hope and great displeasure.
This person meant that he could save the person, but he intended to let them die.
How can there be such a cold-blooded person?
"I'll give you money, please save me quickly."
Xia Tianqiong shook her head and instead stood outside the door with her arms crossed, as if watching a show.
Song Shiqiao was furious, but she couldn't show it. "Name your price, anything is fine, how about two hundred million?"
"If you can come up with that much money, I wouldn't mind getting involved in some karma," Xia Tianqiong said with a disdainful smile.
A standard room in this kind of budget hotel costs only two or three hundred yuan; how could a rich person stay here?
Song Shiqiao also realized what was happening. "I am the president of Songtian Group. If you don't believe me, you can look for my ID card. It's on the table. You can also check it online. My family is rich. As long as you save me, I will give you two hundred million immediately."
Xia Tianqiong paused for a moment, then turned around and searched the room. Sure enough, she found her ID card and business card.
"It really is the president of Songtian Group!"
Holding the business card, he returned to the bathroom door and said, "Your family is so rich, how come you stay in such a low-end hotel?"
“I plan to acquire several budget hotels in this area and convert them into five-star hotels. I am staying here to conduct research.”
Song Shiqiao said quickly, "Please save me! Every minute, it takes away three years of my lifespan."
No rush.
Xia Tianqiong leaned against the doorway and said slowly, "Your family is so rich, spending two hundred million to buy your own life is a bit too little, isn't it?"
How much do you want?
"At least one billion, and it must be in the account today."
"No problem, save me quickly, I'm about to die of old age!"
During their conversation, the gambler took away three years of Song Shiqiao's lifespan.
She grew older and her body gradually became hunched over.
Xia Tianqiong frowned. "You agreed too quickly. I'm afraid you don't intend to keep your word?"
"..."
Song Shiqiao did have this idea. Survival was the priority now, and there was no time to bargain. Everything could wait until she was saved.
Just as she was about to defend herself, Xia Tianqiong smiled indifferently.
"It's alright, I can save you, and I can kill you."
After saying this, while Song Shiqiao was still in a daze, he looked at the gambling ghost in the mirror and said, "I'll gamble my life for her."
"Great, you're very welcome."
Gambling with his life, he smiled slyly.
It was immediately struck by Xia Tianqiong's appearance.
This man has an exceptionally long lifespan, far exceeding that of ordinary humans.
If it weren't for the rules preventing it from forcibly changing its target, it would have already abandoned the woman and locked onto this man.
Now that the other party is offering to take the woman's place, it doesn't violate the rules.
Xia Tianqiong walked into the bathroom and stood in front of Song Shiqiao. In an instant, the image of the gambling monster in the mirror transformed into his appearance.
For some reason, his smile looks a bit lewd.
At the same time, Song Shiqiao regained her leg freedom and staggered out.
"I wagered my lifespan using ghost money instead of paper money."
When Xia Tianqiong left the room, she put some of the smaller gold ingots in her pocket, which came in handy now.
When the gambler saw him pull out the gleaming gold ingots, his eyes widened in disbelief. "Are you human? How can you have so much ghost money, and it's all gold?"
