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 ...
"......"
It’s not over yet, right?
Isn't it unlucky for Zhen to come and go?
Cheng Shi stood up speechlessly, pointed at the sighing tide that was gradually fading away in the distance and said:
“Big sister, you don’t think I really just bet on you to come back and save me, do you?
No matter how confident I am, I can't put my life in the hands of a friend of a friend I don't know very well. I just made a small bet. "
He even put emphasis on the word "friend"!
Hong Lin's eyes turned sarcastic after hearing this: "Don't show off in the wrong place, I won't fall for it."
Cheng Shi clicked his tongue twice but didn't seem annoyed. He just explained slowly:
“You have been exploring for so long but have not found anything at your speed. At this moment, there is no progress in the other two routes. You should know that the difficulty of the trial of [Prosperity] is not in finding people, but in protecting them.
If He doesn't want us to protect His people, there's no way we can win this game, and we might as well just disband and leave.
But if He wanted to, He would not make it difficult for us to find him.
So when you can't find anyone outside of the Sighing Tide, is there a possibility that the person we are looking for, or the clues to the target... are in the fog?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Hong Lin's eyes narrowed slightly.
She finally understood why Tao Yi admired this player named Cheng Shi.
He is bold, careful, dares to gamble, and can trick Zhen Yi. He is indeed a good material.
"So, what did you just find out?"
"Ah? I didn't find anything. I stayed there for too short a time and you dragged me out." Cheng Shi spread his hands as if he deserved a beating.
"......" Hong Lin's mouth twitched slightly, and he looked annoyed.
He still managed to get this trick.
But she usually has some unique methods to deal with such people.
So Hong Lin, with an unhappy look on his face, grabbed Cheng Shi by the back of his collar and carried him towards the stagnant Sighing Tide like a chicken.
"No, sis, I can actually walk by myself."
Cheng Shi realized something was wrong and tried to struggle, but his twisting hands and feet were quickly pulled back by Hong Lin with a wooden spear.
"Don't you want someone to carry you? Carrying is almost the same as carrying you, both save effort."
"I don't want to think about it now!"
"Haha, it's too late."
As she spoke, she returned the stolen bottle of Past Prosperity to its original owner and stuffed it into Cheng Shi's arms, then threw him and the potion into the fog.
Under the catalysis of the power of [Corruption], Cheng Xiaoshi once again became Cheng Laoshi.
"......"
Now he is completely obedient.
