Chapter 50: On the Wasteland (10) I really don’t want to do it…



"Why is it you?!"

The man exclaimed, Qianyue looked up at him and immediately smiled.

——Oh, what a coincidence.

Hong Mingyuan's face looked strange: "Why is it you again..."

Qianyue chuckled coldly, "I'm curious too, why haven't you been eliminated yet? Could it be that those natives were so gentle?"

Hong Mingyuan: "..." As soon as this was mentioned, he was filled with anger.

The other person looked at them with a wary look, "Do you know each other?"

"..." Hong Mingyuan didn't know what to say for a moment, but Qianyue turned around and looked at the man again after hearing what he said.

This one glance allowed her to see the clue.

Although the two people in front of me came together, it can be seen from their positions that they seem to be on guard against each other.

Qianyue immediately understood and asked the unfamiliar male player, "Are you his new teammate?"

Glancing up and down at the man, Qianyue suddenly revealed a look of surprise. Though it was just a glimpse, she clearly remembered that when she ran into Hong Mingyuan in the explosion pit yesterday, he was accompanied by what seemed to be a female player...

Qianyue paused, recalling Hong Mingyuan's strange expression when she'd mentioned the indigenous people. Then she realized what was going on. Judging by the other party's ruthlessness, he was most likely selling out his teammates and running off.

Qianyue sneered, and her gaze towards Hong Mingyuan became meaningful, "No wonder."

Hong Mingyuan's face changed.

From the series of changes in her expression just now, he could probably guess what Qianyue was feeling.

Hong Mingyuan suddenly wondered, "Is this person's eyesight really good? Such sharp observation skills?" No, I couldn't continue chatting with her.

It wasn't that he was afraid Qianyue would expose his plan—after all, he and the person next to him had already fallen out over the rifle, and the other person knew why he had originally sought out his teammates. But Hong Mingyuan was afraid that Qianyue would discover that the rifle was already ready, and that would attract another person to compete with him.

So he quickly reached out to pull another player and said to Qianyue, "We have urgent matters to attend to, so we won't talk any more."

Hong Mingyuan was eager to leave, but the other male player was unaware of his relationship with Qianyue. He noticed that Qianyue and Hong Mingyuan seemed to be having some trouble getting along, so he dodged Hong Mingyuan's hand and asked directly:

"Did you see a man running by just now?"

Qianyue: "Oh, I see."

The two were startled, and the male player hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"

Qianyue pursed her lips at Hong Mingyuan beside her with a half-smile, "Isn't that it?"

The two of them were stunned for a moment, then realized they had been tricked. Their faces turned very ugly.

"Are you fucking kidding me?" A hint of violence flashed across the man's eyes, and it looked like he was about to take action.

Qianyue's heartbeat suddenly quickened.

——It’s not fear, it’s anticipation.

"Calm down." Hong Mingyuan quickly winked at the man, signaling him not to act rashly. He didn't know why, even though he and Qianyue had never fought before, he felt inexplicably frightened when he met Qianyue's calm eyes.

Seeing that the person was stopped, Qianyue was a little disappointed.

She casually put away her smile and changed the subject: "I'm lying to you. I haven't seen it."

Hong Mingyuan was skeptical, "You really haven't seen it?"

This place is located in the wilderness, and after a recent bombing, the flow of people is extremely sparse. The two of them had rushed here as fast as they could, but apart from Qianyue, they hadn't seen anyone else, so they just came up without saying anything.

Hong Mingyuan was anxious, but he couldn't just ask Qianyue if she had seen a man with a gun.

Because if he did that, he would be exposed directly.

Qianyue knew that he had the blueprints of the rifle, and that gun could only have come from him.

Hong Mingyuan was already having enough of a headache with the man next to him fighting for the rifle. The only reason they hadn't fought was because the rifle had been stolen, so they could only temporarily unite to track down Yuan Dongqi.

Hong Mingyuan didn't want to add another opponent because of a slip of the tongue.

Male player: "Let me be frank. Don't lie to us."

Qianyue said impatiently: "If you say you haven't seen it, then you haven't seen it."

It was almost ten minutes ago that she saw Yuan Dongqi.

So if we understand it from the perspective of "just now", she really didn't see anyone just now. So Qianyue answered very confidently.

The two of them stared at her for half a second, then exchanged a subtle look, as if trying to determine whether she was trustworthy. However, Qianyue's mental state was too strong, and judging by her face alone, they couldn't see any flaws, so they could only give up.

Hong Mingyuan's face was gloomy: "Let's go, continue chasing."

Qianyue watched them both turn around, feeling a little sorry.

She was still waiting to be robbed.

Forget it, I'd better take some materials back while no one is around.

But just as she was thinking this and turned around to leave, something unexpected happened!

Qianyue's aura suddenly changed. Without a second thought, she turned around and grabbed the man's wrist! However, no matter how fast she reacted, it was still faster than the activation of the game skill. The backpack on her back suddenly felt lighter, and then something appeared on the wrist that Qianyue had grabbed.

The male player was furious: "The gun is really with you! You must have met him a long time ago!"

Hong Mingyuan: "My gun!"

Qianyue: "What's yours or his? This is mine."

However, no matter how calm she was, the two of them immediately turned against each other.

Hong Mingyuan rushed directly towards the man, who quickly threw the gun from the hand held by Qianyue to the other hand. Then he dodged Hong Mingyuan's attack by turning sideways, bent his elbow and hit him hard on the back with the butt of the gun. At the same time, he flipped his wrist and broke free from Qianyue's shackles.

"Fuck it, give it back to me!"

Hong Mingyuan, who had already fallen, got up again without knowing when, and rushed directly at the man from behind! For the gun, the two of them fought back and forth, almost hitting each other with fists, and the fight was fierce!

Qianyue calmly moved to the side and bent down to pick up the backpack that fell to the ground during the fight.

Her hands had just touched the two backpack bags when something happened over there. Hong Mingyuan suddenly gained the upper hand. The next second, he quickly snatched the bag and held it in his arms. The male player subconsciously wanted to take it back, but was kicked away by Hong Mingyuan!

The kick was so powerful that the male player couldn't help but cry out in pain and instinctively curled up. Hong Mingyuan then used the momentum to roll onto his knees and, seizing this perfect opportunity, he released the safety catch with a click!

At this moment, Qianyue just held the backpack bag tightly.

Hong Mingyuan shouted, "Don't move!"

"Fuck!" The male player cursed softly, but his body subconsciously became stiff.

At the same time, Qianyue slowly straightened up and threw both backpacks onto her shoulders, causing the fabric to rub against each other, making a slight noise.

Hong Mingyuan's gun muzzle turned around with a "swish" sound!

"Don't move!"

Qianyue looked up at him.

Hong Mingyuan then realized that Qianyue had picked up their backpacks. His face suddenly became serious, "Put everything down!"

Qianyue didn't move.

Hong Mingyuan held his rifle in his hand, extremely excited: "I told you to put everything down! Believe it or not, I'll shoot you."

Qianyue: =. =

She rolled her eyes and suddenly took a long step. "You are such a weird person. You don't allow me to move, but you want me to put my things down."

Seeing her approaching, Hong Mingyuan immediately took a step back alertly, "What are you doing? Stop! I'm going to shoot!"

Qianyue looked innocent and said, "Didn't you ask me to put the things down for you? It was too far away from you just now. Even if I put it down, you wouldn't be able to get it."

Hong Mingyuan didn't believe her nonsense. He held the gun in his hand and was extremely alert. The moment the male player next to him moved, he immediately caught his eye. The male player quickly raised his hand to show that he had done nothing.

Only Qianyue seemed not afraid at all and continued to move forward.

Hong Mingyuan shouted, "Right there! Don't go any further. Otherwise I will shoot."

Qianyue chuckled and ignored him.

A fierce look flashed in Hong Mingyuan's eyes. "If that's the case, don't blame me for being rude—"

Before he could finish his words, he pulled the trigger. At the same time, Qianyue suddenly reached out and grasped the barrel of his gun, and leaned directly to the muzzle of the gun!

The trigger had already been pulled, and Hong Mingyuan subconsciously closed his eyes for fear of blood splashing on his face. Even the male player next to him turned his head to the side. At the same time, a "bang" sounded in his ears -

It wasn't the sound of a gun.

Hong Mingyuan opened his eyes. There was no splattering of blood, nor the bloody mess he had imagined. Instead, he saw the other end of the gun barrel. Qianyue gradually stopped making the "bang" sound with her lips and gave him a smile that showed she had succeeded in playing a prank.

Hong Mingyuan was horrified and quickly pulled the trigger, but all the shots were empty!

"how so?!"

Qianyue said calmly, "Sorry, I forgot to remind you that I have already removed the bullets from it."

Hong Mingyuan:!!!

Qianyue did not miss his moment of distraction, and immediately understood.

It was just as she thought.

When Hong Mingyuan first mentioned the blueprints to her, he only mentioned the rifle. He never mentioned the magazine. Qianyue had guessed that even if the gun was built, it would only have the magazine that came with it. Additional magazines would have to be obtained through other means.

Because she was a beggar herself, Qianyue was extremely cautious about storing her supplies. Before leaving home, she deliberately disassembled the gun and magazine to prevent anyone from groping her bag. It was originally a precautionary measure, but she never expected it would actually happen.

Hong Mingyuan: "Fuck you!"

He swung his gun and aimed it at Qianyue, but he didn't expect that Qianyue, who seemed unruly on the surface, was already prepared!

The smile faded in an instant. Qianyue gripped the gun barrel tightly with both hands, then slightly tilted her waist to close the distance between them. Before Hong Mingyuan could react, he was suddenly punched in the waist, followed by his jaw, leg pit, and groin...

"thump"

Hong Mingyuan knelt down.

At the same time, after realizing that the rifle was actually an empty gun barrel, the male player who had been squatting next to it also moved! However, his target was not the rifle, but the two backpacks on Qianyue's back.

Qianyue: "You're addicted to stealing, right?!"

Male player: "That's my bag!"

Qianyue: "Once it's in my hands, it's mine!"

A minute later, there was another "thump," and the male player, also covered with his penis in pain, fell to the ground next to Hong Mingyuan.

"You are despicable..."

Qianyue breathed a sigh of relief, shook her tired hands, and complained, "I told you guys not to mess with me a long time ago. I wasn't forced to do this."

Having unexpectedly found two backpacks, Qianyue didn't even bother to go to the explosion pit and headed straight back home. With the supplies in these two bags, she should have no problem making it to the end of the dungeon.

When Qianyue returned to the cat ear cave, Yuan Dongqi had already woken up.

The baffle at the entrance of the cave was removed, and dazzling light suddenly shone into the cave. Yuan Dongqi subconsciously squinted his eyes, looking very uncomfortable.

But at the moment, Qianyue was completely focused on her supplies. After glancing over and noticing the man was awake, she looked away. The door panel closed, and Qianyue raised her hand and touched something above her head. Soon, a beam of light descended, illuminating a corner of the cave.

Qianyue opened the character page and couldn't help but frown as she saw the numbers dropping to the ground again.

I have to say that fighting is really an extremely resource-consuming sport. Qianyue used quite a few props in a row before she adjusted her character's status back to normal.

Qianyue's brows relaxed visibly, but she was still in a bad mood.

Looking back on his gaming experience over the past few years, Qianyue found that his luck was indeed a bit strange.

I've never won anything special in the daily draws, but I've gotten lucky in some bizarre situations, like running into someone who's taking advantage of me, or getting robbed along the way.

Because Qianyue had no intention of continuing to play the game at the beginning, she did not deliberately stockpile supplies or manage wealth for the subsequent copies in the first copy. This resulted in her not having sufficient supplies at the beginning of each copy, and at most just enough to make ends meet.

However, the strange thing is that every time she feels that her supplies are running out, someone always comes to trouble her.

Qianyue prides herself on being a good young man with good morals and virtues, and she would never do anything to provoke or harm others, but there is always a group of people who will come to her and give her the opportunity to defend herself.

I've run into this kind of person every time in four copies.

It is even more punctual and considerate than the door-to-door delivery of Galaxy Express.

Qianyue couldn't help but doubt herself: "Is this some kind of cheat code?"

"Or is the game system actually suggesting to me that besides relying on it to pay me a living allowance every day, I can also get rich through hard work in other ways?"

However, it is impossible for him to be a hero. Judging from Qianyue's lazy attitude, the most he can do is to defend himself when he encounters trouble.

And before taking action, in order to avoid trouble as much as possible, she would deliberately give people two to three seconds to seriously consider whether they really want to take action.

——Although those people will only feel offended, and in anger and anger, they will act faster.

Qianyue sighed inwardly, "Fighting obviously wastes both stamina and health, and it hurts and it's uncomfortable. It's a pity that these people never understand my good intentions."

Yuan Dongqi on the side: "..."

For some reason, he suddenly felt like sneezing, but his hands and feet were tied, and his mouth was blocked by something. In addition, the cat ear hole was originally narrow, so he could not move at all and dared not make any sound.

The only thing Yuan Dongqi could do was to turn his head and look at Qianyue with burning eyes, trying to attract her attention with his gaze.

But Qianyue's thoughts were not on him at all.

Although she still looks lazy on the outside, she is actually rubbing her hands together and thinking about which package to open first.

Open Hong Mingyuan's first? That guy looks cunning and treacherous.

However, the other person is a professional beggar. He is so skilled in using his talents and skills that he is probably worth a lot of money as well...

I don’t know if it’s the girl’s nature at work, but Qianyue just felt that the urgency at this moment was strangely similar to the joy she felt when she opened the blind box after unpacking the express.
