Chapter 86, Rose Bracelet
“I’ve seen plenty of poor bastards like you. All you want is money. Here, take it all. You dare to extort money on Buddha’s turf for a pittance. Aren’t you worried about being punished by Buddha?”
"Who are these people?" Li Hanmo was so angry that he drew his peach wood sword and wanted to kill the ghost.
"Don't act impulsively, assess the situation first."
Zhong Bingxuan stopped her rampaging boyfriend. The situation was unclear, so it was best to be cautious.
"Hmph, you'd better know your place, or don't blame me for being impolite."
This guy is so annoying. Zhong Bingxuan let go of Li Hanmo's hand and instead stuffed the things from the stall next door into the man's hands.
“My esteemed sir, this is the perfect item for you. Take it home; it will make you even more distinguished.”
The things that are so expensive you'd risk your life for them—it all depends on whether you're afraid or not.
Zhong Bingxuan smiled, but it sent chills down the man's spine, and he hurriedly tried to return the item to her.
"No, no, no, these are your things, not mine."
The man clearly knew the serious consequences of taking other people's things at the temple fair and wanted to return them.
Unfortunately, it was too late. The stall owner immediately came out, his eyes gleaming green, and swallowed the man whole. He then turned around and tried to eat Zhong Bingxuan as well.
“Miss, and you…”
"Buying the same thing twice? Boss, you're too greedy."
Before the boss could finish speaking, Zhong Bingxuan used the Nine Nether Ice Transparent Dart to cut off its head.
Zhong Bingxuan couldn't be bothered to argue with the other party's insatiable greed.
Zhong Bingxuan didn't take his things at all; the things were all in the man's hands. The stall owner had already eaten the person, and he still wanted to eat her, which was a serious violation of the rules. It was only natural that she would deal with him.
"Ah Xuan, the temple fair center is ahead."
Li Hanmo was in charge of checking the situation ahead and found that it was the central area that tourists were prohibited from entering, as stated in the rules.
"Didn't they say they wouldn't let us in from there?"
Could this message be fake?
Zhong Bingxuan had her own guesses, but then someone dispelled her doubts.
"No one is allowed to enter before midnight. It's almost midnight now, and everyone is waiting for Buddha to descend and bestow upon us a magnificent plum blossom feast."
Upon hearing this, Zhong Bingxuan quickly grabbed Li Hanmo and prepared to escape from the dense crowd and leave the temple fair.
Damn it, there are traps everywhere. Time is flying by, it's almost midnight.
The plum blossoms are in full bloom, which is clearly not a good thing. Are we just going to stay here and wait to die?
However, the crowd was too large, and Zhong Bingxuan and Li Hanmo couldn't squeeze out at all. Instead, they were pushed back by the dense crowd and headed towards the legendary center where Buddha was said to have descended.
"No, we can't get out at all, and there's a risk of being trampled to death."
Seeing that Ah Xuan's efforts were futile, Li Hanmo told her to calm down and think of other solutions.
"Use red lanterns."
After being reprimanded by Li Hanmo, Zhong Bingxuan remembered the defensive artifact, the red lantern, that she had just purchased.
Although Zhong Bingxuan's Red Lantern is better and is a growth-type artifact, judging from the current artifact levels, Li Hanmo's Red Lantern has a larger radiation range.
When Li Hanmo lit his red lantern, it was as bright as day within three meters. The eerie creatures, seeing the soft white light emitted by the red lantern, felt fear and moved away from it.
This makes it easier for Li Hanmo and Zhong Bingxuan to walk.
As the two left the temple fair, enveloped in the glow of red lanterns, the midnight revelry began behind them, with the plum blossom feast commencing.
One by one, the bizarre bodies swelled up, then couldn't hold on any longer and exploded, forming blood-red plum blossom marks.
Seeing this one-sided killing scene, Zhong Bingxuan felt a lingering fear.
Fortunately, if they had been any later, they too would have become disposable items in the magnificent plum blossom feast.
"Cousin, how are you?"
Zhong Linlin's anxious voice rang out from not far away. Behind her followed Fu Yuchen, whose clothes were tattered. It was obvious that the battle had just ended and he hadn't even had time to change his clothes before running over.
Upon arriving, the two saw what was happening at the temple fair, and both Zhong Bingxuan and Zhong Bingxuan were filled with worry.
"It's alright, we were out before the accident happened. How's the situation on your end?"
Judging from their disheveled appearance, it was clear that the Rose Garden was no less dangerous than the temple fair.
"Fortunately, Brother Yuchen is very strong. None of those strange creatures are a match for him. It's just that some unexpected situations occurred along the way, which delayed our arrival."
Otherwise, Zhong Linlin could have met up with her cousin at the temple fair and shared some of the dangers there.
"Well, it's good that you're alright. It's just a pity you didn't manage to buy a single red lantern."
Judging from the spectacular scene of Li Hanmo using the red lantern to ward off evil, it's clear that the red lantern is quite effective; it's such a pity we didn't get it.
"We gained quite a bit there, so we're not too disappointed."
Zhong Linlin gestured for her cousin to look at the rose bracelet on her wrist and continued, "It's an offensive growth artifact. As long as you scratch a monster, you can plant rose seeds on it. Then, you can activate the seeds to grow with the help of the monster's power. Once it grows up, it can be used as a pet to attack other monsters that are not the host within an hour."
Parasitic attack artifact, this one is pretty good. It can also be upgraded. Compared to the red lantern which is all about defense, this artifact is more usable.
"This dungeon is difficult, but it also yields a lot of artifacts. You can get one artifact from each specialty location. I wonder if the locations for the remaining two specialties have any?"
Zhong Bingxuan thought that they were going to the Cultural Street to make a love knot tomorrow. If they could find a mysterious artifact, it should be related to that place. She asked the others if they wanted to go.
It was mainly Fu Yucheng and Zhong Linlin. As long as Li Hanmo was collecting local specialties with her, he would naturally need to go there.
"Let's go take a look. We'll stay here and participate in the activities too, and see if we can get any more artifacts."
No one would complain about having too many gadgets. In the world of horror, the more gadgets you have, the greater your chances of survival.
"Then it's settled. We'll meet at the Cultural Street tomorrow night. Now go back and get some rest to avoid making mistakes if you're not in good spirits tonight."
Fu Yucheng nodded and took Zhong Linlin away.
Zhong Bingxuan had some unexpected situations to deal with, and Li Hanmo, worried about his lover's condition, also stayed behind.
After waiting for a long time without seeing Harlelin and An's mother arrive, they were a little confused. Then they saw the little girl who had been selling flowers earlier walking towards them aggressively.
"Hey, did you guys do this? I fell down several times last night and lost most of my teeth."
It turns out that Li Hanmo's prank props weren't disposable; once they were applied, they would continuously activate their prank effects.
Unfortunately, this effect is not fatal; it only causes some minor harm to the supernatural or humans.
It was quite cheap when it was sold in the system store, so Li Hanmo bought it on a whim and used it to prank the little girl. It was the little girl's bad luck to have offended the petty Li Hanmo.
