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 ...
Obviously, the third sentence was said by Cheng Shi.
He wasn't trying to lighten the mood; he was being "serious".
Because he suddenly realized that his situation in this temporary team was very awkward, he lacked real teammates!
Du Yao is the core of this interest group. She holds the biggest secret that everyone wants to know. At the same time, she has a cooperation agreement with Pointer Knight Jiang Chi that is unknown to outsiders, so her situation is the best.
Although the two players hunting outside are targeting her, it is foreseeable that as long as she masters the rhythm of revealing secrets and holds back the two helpers, she can use the secrets in her hands to survive this trial.
Jiang Chi is a collaborator, and his cooperation with Du Yao obviously started before this trial, which means that even if he expressed his desire for the [Gift of Wounds], it was most likely just an excuse. In addition to this [Corrupted] dagger, Du Yao probably has something else he wants in his hand, which also means that the relationship between the two is far more "solid" than the temporary cooperative relationship present here.
In addition, although he used poison during the hunt in the square, he knew when to stop and did not have irreconcilable conflicts with anyone, so Jiang Chi still had the choice to withdraw at any time in a critical moment. After all, he was a warrior who could resist, fight and seize opportunities.
Not to mention Dayi, he currently has a well-known cooperative relationship with Duyao. Before Duyao led him to find the [Gift of Wounds], the two of them would most likely not have a conflict, and he and Cheng Shi were familiar with each other, so there was naturally one less strong opposing player in the trial.
The biggest trouble for him was to ensure the poison was kept under the hunting of Ram Horn, but he also said that this deal would only last for three days. If he did not get what he wanted within three days, it would be up to him whether to withdraw directly or join Ram Horn's team to hunt down the assassin who had played tricks on him.
Because he is an assassin, an assassin with strong combat capabilities and who can come and go without a trace.
Only Cheng Shi...
He was a pastor, and a helpless one at that.
The helplessness here does not mean that he cannot rely on his hidden strength to fight with others, but that he does not have anyone he can trust!
Even in the current team, in front of two acquaintances, there is no one he can "trust his back to".
These people are not Mi Lao Zhang or Big Cat. They all come for profit and it is difficult for them to get his recognition. Therefore, Cheng Shi feels that whether from the perspective of continuing the trial or from the perspective of snatching treasures, he still lacks a gaming partner.
A profession like priest requires a partner. Other priests may look for a partner to increase their combat power, but Cheng Shi is different. He lacks a tool man. It is irrational to always put himself in danger. However, if there is a tool man who can clear the way and clear mines, the trial will be easier.
But there obviously was no such partner among the players in this game, so Cheng Shi changed his previous game strategy. He gave up building a "stable" small group and turned himself into a "central air conditioner."
And what central air conditioning means is...it has something to do with everyone.
He planned to use false friendships to support and consolidate his position in the team.
Cheng Shi had thought a lot during the time he had just gone downstairs. With the means he currently possessed, as long as he knew the whereabouts of the [Gift of Wounds], he would have a great chance of obtaining it and becoming the one who had the last laugh.
But the prerequisite is that this [Gift of Wounds] is not difficult to obtain.
But no matter whether it was Dayi's eagerness, Hu Wei's scheming, or Du Yao's caution, these appearances told him that this dagger was not so easy to take away, so what he had to do now was not to be excluded by this temporary team, and to use all means to survive until the moment when others got the [Gift of Wounds].
As long as this legendary dagger appears safely in the hands of other players, Cheng Shi will have a way to...get it, or at least trick it into his hands.
So what he needs to do now is to make friends with everyone!
He doesn't ask everyone to trust him, he just wants them to not exclude him when dealing with external parties.
So, a game of exchanging "sincerity" for "sincerity" began again.
That's why he said that to the poison.
"Take it off here?"
Poison raised his eyebrows, curled up the corners of his mouth and responded with a smile: "You want to be honest with me like this?"
"Isn't it? Did I understand it wrongly?" Cheng Shi looked confused and pretended to be confused.
Poison licked the corner of his lips: "No, you understand it correctly."
"......"
This scene stunned Jiang Chi and Dayi. They had just listened for a while downstairs and thought that although Cheng Shi and Du Yao knew each other, they did not get along well. However, the sudden change in Cheng Shi's brain circuit made them realize that they were wrong.
The relationship between these two people does not seem to be as simple as teammates who have met once.
When Cheng Shi might really become an accomplice of the poison, Dayi's expression became slightly more serious, and the smile on Jiang Chi's face became more obvious.
Putting aside the complicated relationships, it’s really interesting to watch the first-line spectators.
His eyes kept jumping between the two of them, waiting to see who would take off their clothes first.
Du Yao was wearing a slim white down jacket, which was completely different from the black one he wore at the beginning. It was obvious that he had just changed it, which meant that they had most likely been "honest with each other" once, at least Du Yao had been "honest".
On the other hand, Cheng Shi wore an ordinary casual jacket with a white T-shirt underneath, which was extremely simple. This image became "frank" after taking off two pieces of clothing.
