temptation
After walking together for a while, Li Pingan finally understood what this person was planning.
Li Pingan was hanging in the air and swinging. Below him, a monster that looked like a mutant octopus was stretching out its tentacles to touch his skin.
Just as Li Pingan turned his head away to avoid being touched by the octopus, the Lone Ranger jumped out from the side and swung his knife a few times, and the octopus on the ground became motionless.
With another knife, the rope on Li Ping'an was cut off and fell to the ground.
Rubbing his sore arm, Li Pingan walked to the side of the Lone Ranger and watched him cut the octopus with a knife.
Then he handed a transparent tendon to Li Pingan,
Li Pingan accepted it wisely. This was not the first time. She understood that this was the reward for acting as bait.
Practice makes perfect. She can now even predict where the monsters will appear and tie herself up with ease.
The Lone Ranger's knife is getting faster and faster, and Li Ping'an's wallet is getting fatter and fatter.
That's not right, that's not what she came in for.
"Well, I'm leaving now."
Li Pingan took the scimitar-like tooth handed to him by the Lone Ranger and said goodbye.
The Lone Ranger stopped what he was doing and looked at Li Pingan in confusion, "Why?"
Along the way, the Lone Ranger saw clearly that Li Ping'an was weak from the inside out. He didn't even need to use a knife. He could kill her with just one finger.
After working in this business for so long, Li Ping'an is the best bait he has ever encountered. He is quiet, smart and not greedy. He also plans to take Li Ping'an to kill monsters from all directions.
"I have to save the world."
Li Pingan knew the Lone Ranger's arbitrary character. If he didn't say something, he would definitely not let him leave.
"Have you ever thought about why you came into the barrier?"
The Lone Ranger glanced at the monster's corpse that had been reduced to pieces of flesh in front of him and said, "For money."
"No, what's wrong with you? Before you came in, those people on the stage were talking so much, didn't you listen to a word?"
The Lone Ranger's answer left Li Ping'an speechless. Whenever he said it was for the sake of monsters, Li Ping'an could beautify it into him doing it to slay monsters and eliminate evil.
"So, you listened? You're going to save the world?"
The Lone Ranger looked Li Ping'an up and down with a mocking smile in his eyes.
Li Pingan heard and saw that the man in front of her was laughing at her.
"We cannot work together if we don't share the same ideals. Let's just say goodbye."
Li Ping'an didn't plan to waste time talking to him. After he finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Before she took two steps, she felt a pair of hands on her shoulders, unable to move. "Did I let you go?" The voice sounded gloomy.
Li Pingan felt that if he didn't teach this guy a lesson, he would really think he was a kitten. The dagger slipped out from his sleeve, and while turning around and slashing, Li Pingan also released the "Exploding Octopus" and "Cuckoo".
Looking at the two beads spinning in the air, the lone ranger who dodged Li Ping'an's dagger had a hint of doubt and surprise in his eyes.
Grass,
Li Pingan felt that Jiuqi was setting himself up for a fight. He had previously praised the "Cuckoo" bead to such a high level that it was unmatched in the world.
Now it is being held in someone's hand like a walnut.
The Lone Ranger brought the bead close to his face and sniffed it. "This doesn't look like something from here, nor does it look like something from the outside world."
"Where did you get it?"
Li Ping'an frowned, her face solemn. She was not sure if she had seen it wrong, but it seemed that for a moment, the black eyeballs of the person in front of her turned golden.
"What's it to you?"
This person was quite good at using local materials. He tied Li Ping'an's hands with the white tendons he had just obtained. She turned her bound hands, and apart from the pain from being rubbed, there was no sign of looseness.
"Give it back to you."
After reading it, the Lone Ranger threw two beads at Li Pingan, then stood up.
"Let's go."
Where are you going?!
The tied-up Li Ping'an could only stumble and walk behind him, being dragged by the rope.
When he was once again hung on the tree, Li Pingan started to scream, trying to scare away the monster that was about to come closer.
But it was no use, the monster still rushed over with its bloody mouth wide open.
The Lone Ranger looked at the monster's corpse on the ground, and then looked at Li Pingan who was hanging in the air but still not behaved.
"The louder you scream, the more monsters will appear."
"It saves me from having to look all over the place."
Hearing this, Li Pingan quickly shut his mouth and softened his attitude a little as he watched the Lone Ranger dismembering the body.
"Well, I won't leave. Can you put me down? It's too uncomfortable to hang like this."
The Lone Ranger turned a deaf ear to him until the basketball court-sized monster was dismembered and all its valuables were taken away. Only then did he raise his hand and put Li Pingan down.
Watching the Lone Ranger put all his things into his storage bag, Li Pingan couldn't help but ask, "Where's mine?"
Although she was not the one who took the initiative, she was at least hung up for a long time. Why was she not included?
The Lone Ranger looked at Li Ping'an's indignant expression, took out a piece of bone and stuffed it into Li Ping'an's bound hand.
"Hello, what's your name?"
It was too quiet. If Li Pingan hadn't heard the man speak, he would have suspected that he was mute. He kept walking and hunting monsters without saying a word.
No response,
"If you don't answer, I'll call you the Lone Ranger."
"Hey, Lone Ranger, why are you hunting so many monsters?"
"Don't you feel bored if you don't talk?"
"We've been walking for so long, aren't you tired? Don't you want to sit down and rest for a while?"
…
Li Pingan kept talking. Suddenly, the lone ranger who was walking in front of him stopped and signaled Li Pingan to be quiet.
Seeing that the Lone Ranger's expression didn't seem to be trying to scare her, Li Pingan quickly shut his mouth.
I thought it was a monster, but gradually, a layer of black mist rose around it, and a harsh sound of "hehehaha chirping" came.
If Li Ping'an's hands hadn't been tied, she would have covered her ears.
The Lone Ranger placed Li Ping'an on a rock and walked forward alone, letting the black fog wrap around him.
"People?" The sharp voice was full of surprise.
"wrong,"
"No," the surprise faded, with a hint of panic,
"Not a human, not a human,"
"What is that? What is that?" The sound was getting louder and louder. Even though Li Pingan was far away, he felt like his eardrums were about to burst.
However, when he heard what the demon said, Li Ping'an's eyes flashed. He moved a little, revealing his eyes from behind the stone, staring at the black fog in front of him, hoping to see something from it.
From time to time, a figure flashed through the thick black fog, and a pair of golden pupils appeared and disappeared. Li Pingan held his hand in surprise.
No, I can't win alone, I need to call for help.
"Wuya, Annie, An Ding, come out quickly, don't make it big, just come out small."
Li Pingan shrank back behind the stone, looked at the three small figures in front of him, and whispered,
"Ping An, what are you doing?"
"It's okay, don't worry about it. I have something to trouble you, especially Wu Ya."
"Wu Ya, don't get excited. I'll give you what you want after this is over, so don't get excited when I talk to you later."
Li Ping'an reminded her repeatedly, fearing that Wu Ya might get excited and scare the people inside.
"Wu Ya, try to see if you can feel your sister's breath."
Wu Ya was confused just now, but when she heard what Li Pingan said, she quickly closed her eyes and felt it quietly.
Li Pingan looked at Wu Ya expectantly, and from time to time he would peek at the Lone Ranger from behind the rocks, fearing that the fight would be over before she knew it.
Fortunately, it didn't take long before Wu Ya opened her eyes and nodded, "I can feel my sister's breath."
Li Pingan breathed a sigh of relief. "Quick, you two and Wu Ya go find Jiu Qi and ask him to come here quickly."
"Go quickly,"
Seeing that the black fog was about to dissipate, Li Pingan knew that the fighting was over.
Hearing the urgency in Li Ping'an's tone, the three of them turned into fluorescent dots and flew out.
Watching the three fluorescent dots disappear before his eyes, Li Pingan breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back against the stone, and looked at the sun and clouds in the sky that had never changed.
"This time when you go in, you and Jiuqi might get separated," Jiuqi said as he stood by the river and looked at Li Pingan who was drinking water.
"Then is there anything that can allow us to contact each other inside?" Li Pingan didn't want to fight alone after entering.
"I told Jiuqi that if you two separate after entering the barrier, he will release Wuya's sister."
"Wu Ya has a talent for finding people. You can ask her to find her sister."
"Then, let her bring Jiuqi to find you."
When Li Ping'an heard this, she stopped what she was doing and said, "But will they be in danger like this?" She didn't even know what was in the barrier.
Jiu Qi looked at Li Pingan and said, "You have to learn to trust others."
"They have to grow up eventually,"
Li Ping'an lowered his head and said no more. He dipped the jar into the river, making a "gurgling" sound.
Li Pingan didn't expect that Jiuqi was right about this matter.
I hope the three of them can come back safely.
After watching the black fog completely dissipate, Li Pingan moved his face and walked out as if nothing had happened.
"Hey, Lone Ranger, what was that just now?"
The Lone Ranger's eyes had turned back to black at this time, staring at Li Pingan.
Li Pingan felt a little guilty and turned his head away, not looking him in the eye. "Is this the thing that caused the black fog?"
Li Pingan walked in and found that it was a mass of mud. He kicked it with his foot and found that it had the same texture as slime.
"What is this?"
Li Ping'an didn't dare to look up and meet the Lone Ranger's gaze, so he had to lower his head and pretend to be very interested in the demon.
"Swamp Thing,"
Although the Lone Ranger answered Li Ping'an, there was still scrutiny in his eyes.
"Swamp monster? There's a swamp here?"
"Um."
The Lone Ranger replied casually.
"Wow, you are amazing. You even know there is a swamp here." Although Li Pingan's words were full of praise, his eyes were cold.
The Lone Ranger heard Li Ping'an's temptation and withdrew his gaze.
"Let's go."
