Foolish Game of the Gods

I have two principles as a human being:

1. Never lie.

2. Never believe anything anyone says, including myself.

“Sir, I must point out that your second principle contradicts the ...

Chapter 1149: Even a Mosquito's Leg is Meat

"Are you crying?"

"I don't!"

"Then what is this?" Cheng Shi kicked Chen Shu's foot away and pointed at a wet mark on the floor under his feet.

"gasoline."

"?"

"Ji Yue said she wanted to die in the fire, so I planned to burn her."

“…”

There was really no way to respond to this, because Cheng Shi really saw Chen Shu holding a bucket of gasoline in his hand.

No, buddy! ?

How did you manage to take out your gas can while crying?

Also, where did you get so many gasoline barrels?

Did you rob a gas station?

Cheng Shiben thought he would come across a different statement, but it turned out that he was overthinking it.

The statement was still the same statement, but now it lacked some of the noisy disguise.

He pushed Chen Shu away in annoyance, sat down beside the bed, carefully checked Ji Yue's injuries, and quietly drew a symbol of "Order" on Ji Yue's back while avoiding Chen Shu's sight.

Ji Yue's injuries were indeed serious. Any priest who came would shake his head. Treatment alone could not save this fire bearer, unless the gravekeeper personally kept him alive.

But Lao Zhang was not in the queue, and he was not the gravekeeper today, so he could only use another method to share some of the pain for the other party.

Justice officer!

The priest of [Order] can balance the vitality between the two people, and its effect is just like the symbiotic lace that Lao Zhang once used. It happened that Cheng Shi had deceived an [Order] believer in the previous game, so when Ying Cheng Shi brought back the news that Ji Yue was seriously injured, Cheng Shi had a plan in his mind.

He once again blasphemed a benefactor in exchange for the temporary power of [Order]. He then used the endless vitality in his body to slowly dissipate the hidden dangers in Ji Yue's body. With unremitting efforts, he finally saved the other party from danger and made him sleep peacefully.

Cheng Shi was sweating profusely. He took a long breath and nodded to Chen Shuo.

When Chen Shu saw that Ji Yue was rescued, he felt relieved and sat down on the floor.

Cheng Shi glanced at Chen Shu with a half-smile, then stood up and casually looked around the house.

“What do you want to do?

The noise is really too loud. How can it be brighter at night than during the day? "

"Didn't you... hear everything?"

"What did you hear? As a pastor, I've already exhausted all my energy just rushing here. How could I have time to listen to your deathbed sentiments?"

Chen Shu's expression suddenly turned strange. He glared at Cheng Shi and said, "How do you know you're being sentimental if you didn't hear me?"

"I guessed it." Cheng Shi held back his laughter but sighed in his heart.

This is why he admires defenders of cities more than builders of cities. You can't say that builders of cities are wrong, but they can indeed "do whatever it takes" to achieve their goals.

This reminded him of Zhao Qian whom he had met before.

When the city builders feel that hope lies in themselves, they can ignore everything else in the world, but once they know that hope lies in others, they can give up everything they have, just like Ji Yue now.

Qin Xin is in charge of both the garrison and the city builders. Wouldn't he become schizophrenic with these two conflicting wills fighting each other every day?

Cheng Shi's thoughts suddenly scattered and the scene suddenly fell into silence.

Not long after, he smiled, shook his head to get rid of these distracting thoughts, and said:

"I know you're looking for me.

I doubt even those who weren't at Rediker could see the change, let alone me, who she wanted to notify with the flames...

Tsk, the scholar is very good at calculating and his way of finding people is also unique.

But this method is too radical. Use it less in the future, otherwise problems will arise sooner or later.

What do you want from me?

Wait, let's not talk about this for now. Can you Firebearers pay Ji Yue's consultation fee first?"

"Pay... medical fee?"

Chen Shu was stunned, staring at Cheng Shi and said, "You want money for treating your own teammates?"

"Who wants money?"

Chen Shu blinked, thinking that he had misunderstood.

But the next second Cheng Shi said:

"Equivalent items are also fine."

“…”

His expression became extremely interesting. He stared at Cheng Shi for a long time, until Cheng Shi turned his head away embarrassedly, and then he said quietly:

"Okay, I'll pay!"

Cheng Shi's eyes lit up, but then he looked at Chen Shu with a hint of suspicion in his eyes: "How are you going to pay?"

"I'll owe it to you first."

“???”

No, are you buying on credit?

Cheng Shi said disdainfully: "What's the difference between that and not paying? Do I owe you?"

Chen Shu shook his head fiercely: "No, brother-in-law, I owe you."

“…”

This sentence silenced Cheng Shigan again.

Bad news, I got it for free.

Good news, Chen Shuo seemed to have come out of his previous inexplicable mood.

Of course, the latter may not be good news.

Cheng Shi pulled a chair over and sat down unhappily, rolling his eyes and saying:

"Tell me about it. Tell me what great deeds these two poor firebenders did on this earth-shaking night. Let me, a priest who is not getting his money back, open my eyes."

“…”

For a moment, Chen Shuo always felt that his brother-in-law was infected by the atmosphere of this [stupid] town and spoke in a sarcastic tone.

But he still explained everything he and Ji Yue had done to Cheng Shi clearly, and at the end he stared into Cheng Shi's eyes and said:

"You know about foolishness, right?"

Cheng Shi blinked and smiled mysteriously.

Not only do I know, I even know what underwear he is wearing today.
