He couldn't see or hear clearly, so he followed his intuition and walked in.
It hurts, it hurts so much!
Something bit him, and his body was being torn apart.
Jiang Ting gritted his teeth and continued forward.
Stopping only leads to certain death.
Keep going, don't stop.
Jiang Ting, soaking wet, crawled out of the dark alley and encountered a strange statue.
It has a big mouth and short arms and legs.
The statue came to life, saying, "How dare a little kid trespass on my territory?"
Jiang Ting remained calm. "This is my family's ancestral hall, not your territory."
The statue says: "Kid, you smell so good~ I want to eat you."
After five years of training, Jiang Ting has encountered everything beyond his imagination and is now able to face it calmly.
By not killing him at the beginning, there was room for maneuver.
"Release me; I'm more useful than you would eat me."
The statue immediately became interested. "Kid, you are the most mentally resilient human I have ever seen. I've decided to tell you a big secret."
"I am a god, an omnipotent god."
"Make a wish to me, and any wish will come true."
The eerie tone was incredibly seductive.
Jiang Ting pinched himself hard to keep his mind clear, and then asked the statue a question.
“You live below the ancestral hall, you must have something you want, I will help you fulfill your wish.”
The idol: "Wow, quite the boast."
"Kid, you've successfully caught my attention. I've decided to hold off on eating you for now."
"You're quite something, breaking into the formation I set up at such a young age."
The statue sprouted round eyes and asked, "What's your name?"
"Jiang Ting".
The statue tore off a piece of bright red flesh and stuffed it into his mouth, its eyes gleaming with a perverse light.
"From now on, you are my subordinate and must obey my orders."
Jiang Ting couldn't refuse, "Idol, I'm willing to follow you."
He lied for the third time with great skill, without giving himself away.
Humanity's greatest skill is lying.
Truth and falsehood intertwined, falsehood and truth intertwined.
Jiang Ting used falsehoods to disguise himself, maneuvering between the idol and the Jiang family.
He was just an ordinary person who couldn't comprehend the strange power or contend with the idol.
The only thing I can do is protect my two younger brothers.
After several encounters with the statue, Jiang Ting guessed its purpose.
The Jiang family is a cage, and everyone is a pawn of the idol, from body to soul.
Jiang Ting kept all the truth to himself, dealing with his grandfather, the idol, going to work on time, and taking care of his younger brother.
Last time, he failed to protect his sister.
This time, I must protect my two younger brothers!
must!!!
