Chapter 154: A Waste of Time
The group of people were shocked when they heard the sound. All their tiredness disappeared in an instant and they stared straight at the colorful flowers not far ahead.
After seeing its full appearance, everyone cried with joy.
That’s great! All my efforts were not in vain. I finally saw the real colorful flowers.
They said it was impossible for them to be so unlucky. How could they not get anything after escaping from the snake cave?
Colorful flowers, here they come.
A group of people ran forward quickly, led by the Wen family.
They didn't learn their lesson at all, and ran straight towards the colorful flowers as if the scene in the snake cave had never happened.
This time Shen Peirong did not stop them and let everyone go up.
We must grab the colorful flowers.
Even though the group of people seemed half dead before, now that they saw the colorful flowers appear, they felt like they were reborn with strength.
Chi Yan and Qi Ke put a speed-up talisman on their bodies and in the blink of an eye they left everyone behind and came to the colorful flowers.
The beauty of the colorful flowers was reflected in their pupils, and they excitedly reached out their hands toward the flowers.
But the next moment, the two men stopped, turned around and stretched out their hands to stop everyone.
"Wait a minute, there's something wrong with this flower."
The leader of the Wen family showed a look of suspicion, and pointed a bloody sword at the two of them, "Get out of my way, you still want to stop me from taking the seven-colored flowers after all this, get out of here right now."
"That's right, get out of our way and don't try to stop us from getting the colorful flowers."
"Girls from the Special Intelligence Bureau, you have been given all the benefits before, this time we agreed that it will depend on your ability."
Chi Yan's face turned dark and he took out a loudspeaker and cursed back.
"Huahuahua, are you only seeing flowers? You are a bunch of idiots with your heads stuck in the door. Take a closer look to see if this is a colorful flower."
Everyone was stunned and looked at the colorful flowers behind Chi Yan.
Some people even took out flashlights to illuminate the colorful flowers.
Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, it is definitely a colorful flower.
etc...
Without purple, the colorful flower is missing a petal.
Everyone woke up as if from a dream, rubbed their eyes and looked again.
Still the same, this colorful flower is missing a petal.
If a colorful flower is missing a petal, can it still be called a colorful flower?
The faces of the people who had just accused Chi Yan and the other two froze and they looked away awkwardly.
Shen Peirong walked a few steps away from the colorful flower and stopped. Seeing that the colorful flower was missing a petal, she was very puzzled. "This is strange. Logically, we have left the snake cave and returned to the primeval forest. We should not still be in an illusion."
The leader of the Bai family said, "Could it be that a petal fell off? After all, it has been several days. Or did the photographer pick a petal and leave?"
The leader of the Luo family retorted: "The former is possible, but the latter is absolutely impossible. Although I don't understand how he took the video, many of us died before we saw the colorful flowers. It is not easy for him to take them away."
Shen Lingyu pondered for a moment, "Could it be that someone took the flowers away before us? Is that person here?"
The hearts of several leaders sank.
If that person had taken the colorful flowers ahead of time, it would not be impossible.
"But if it was really that person, why did he only take one petal and leave?" Qi Ke was a little puzzled.
A complete colorful flower. Although its specific function is still unclear, any normal person would want to take all the flowers away.
Only when it is absolutely impossible will you take away only one petal.
Everyone was also silent.
Yes, why only take away one petal? Is there any meaning behind this?
Before the group of people could figure out the meaning of this, they heard a light sound next to their ears.
Looking ahead, I saw the colorful flower swaying in the moonlight, and the remaining six petals broke away from the pistil and flew into the sky.
The six-colored petals separated and circled in the air looking for its target.
The blue petals fell first, landing in front of Wen Renzhen.
Wenren Zhen swallowed and reached out to take it. The blue petals immediately turned into a colorful token lying in the palm of his hand.
Then there were yellow petals, which spun around Chi Yan's body and fell down, turning into a token.
The rest of the petals also found their targets and flew to the middle of the crowd to find suitable targets.
The Bai family, the Luo family, and the Shui family each received a token, and the last one was obtained by Shen Lingyu.
At this point, the six tokens have been divided up.
The colorful flower lost its petals, and its roots quickly withered, blending into the ground before anyone could react.
Everyone looked at the disappearing colorful flower, then looked at the token that appeared out of thin air, and then a huge quarrel broke out in the crowd.
"Can someone tell me if the scene just now was an illusion? How did the petals turn into tokens out of thin air? What are the functions of these tokens?"
"I've been in this business for so many years, but this is the first time I've seen a flower turned into a sign. Could this sign be a clue to some treasure?"
"What's going on? Is this the end? They won't even let us get a single root of the colorful flower?"
"Why? We also came out of the snake cave, why didn't the colorful flower choose us?"
"This is too much. Qicaihua must be looking down on us. The Special Intelligence Bureau got three, but our Wang family didn't get any."
The colorful flowers turn into tokens, some are happy and some are sad.
Before coming, everyone was prepared for the uneven distribution of the colorful flowers, and some even brought all their belongings with them, just to have a share of the spoils in the fight for the colorful flowers.
But who would have thought that in the end, after they had barely survived a near-death experience, Qicaihua would take the initiative to choose someone.
What’s the point of their hard work for a few days? Are they being taken advantage of?
With new and old grudges, the Wen family, who had lost all their money, first directed their anger at the Special Intelligence Bureau.
“Director Shen, no matter what tricks you used on Qicaihua, isn’t it a bit too greedy for your people to get three tokens?”
The head of the Wen family can’t take care of anything now and feels like he’s about to collapse.
More than half of the elite troops they brought with them died, more than ten years of hard work was lost in one day, and in the end, they didn't gain any benefit at all.
Why, why? What’s so wrong with the Wen family?
Wang Jia couldn't help but feel jealous, staring at the three tokens with red eyes, "Director Shen, how about you give me a token? After all, we have put in some effort, we can't go back empty-handed!"
There are three tokens. Apart from one for him and the Wen family, there will be one left for the Special Intelligence Bureau.
It's fair and just, this way they can still pick up some scraps and not lose everything.
Other families that were not as good as the Wang and Wen families also agreed in their hearts.
It is completely reasonable for the Bai family, the Luo family, and the Shui family to each receive one token, but the Special Intelligence Bureau took three, and it would be unreasonable for them not to hand over two.
In the dark night, no one could see Shen Peirong's expression. They only knew that she took out a wet towel and slowly wiped the blood off the sword.
Without waiting for a response, the head of the Wen family asked loudly again: "Director Shen, aren't you too old to hear..."
"call out--"
Before anyone could finish speaking, everyone saw a flash of silver light suddenly flying past the head of the Wen family's patriarch.
