Chapter 36 The Crybaby's Endless Escape (Part 17)
Si Yisi didn't seem worried at all about whether it was a trap or something, and he gave chase.
At this moment, Mo Wuchang felt that his boss's legs were much longer than his own, and he walked with such speed that no one could catch up with him.
Fortunately, the rental room was quite small, and in just a moment they arrived on the first floor and found the Paper Ghost—who had now transformed back into the butcher.
only……
Si Yisi: "..."
Mo Wuchang: "..."
Both the person and the system were momentarily stunned by the sight before them.
The paper ghost, with its menacing scarred face, no longer held a sharp axe, but a long... meter-long cleaver!
The scarred man, dragging his large machete, was about to attack Chen Mengxi and Jia Yingrong from a great distance!
Suddenly, the scarred man had a flash of inspiration and spotted Si Yisi rushing towards him.
The scarred man shuddered almost imperceptibly. He glanced down at Si Yisi along the path of his large machete, and Si Yisi noticed that when he looked up again, he seemed much more confident.
Mo Wuchang, observing the scarred man's series of inexplicable actions: ...
Mo Wuchang felt that he had vaguely realized the purpose of the paper ghost's actions—why did he look at the knife once and then look at Si Yisi once?
Because of the long distance between him and Si Yisi.
The paper ghost probably thinks that with a meter-long cleaver protecting him, the boss can't do anything to him!
Is this the source of their confidence?
Mo Wuchang was both amused and exasperated. He glanced at the scarred man with pity and said, "Do you think our boss is the kind of trash who's doomed if you can't get close to him?"
Although Mo Wuchang wasn't entirely confident either, he had much more confidence in Si Yisi than the scarred man.
Si Yisi slowed down and ran to Chen Mengxi's side. His sobs were filled with grievance and fear as he cautiously called out to Chen Mengxi, "Cousin."
It's as if Chen Mengxi will become the god who helps him escape.
After a moment of mental preparation, the scarred man swung his knife menacingly at the four people present.
His strike was swift, precise, and ruthless, seemingly intent on cutting all four of them down with his blade!
Mo Wuchang narrowly avoided the scarred man's attack with a roll. When he looked at Si Yisi, his hands sweating, he realized that his boss actually had the leisure to put on a show!
Just as Chen Mengxi was about to call her dog Jia Yingrong... no, Shen Yingqing to help her, Si Yisi slammed her away like a cannonball.
The force of an adult male's impact knocked Chen Mengxi to the ground.
Si Yisi cried out in alarm, "Cousin, be careful!" and rushed towards Chen Mengxi with lightning speed to "cover" her.
Chen Mengxi took a deep breath. Caught off guard, she was knocked to the ground by Si Yisi, whose tears smeared all over her face!
It smeared all over her face!
Chen Mengxi was furious. She watched helplessly as Si Yisi pushed her so unexpectedly that the scarred man's knife grazed her temple, making Chen Mengxi feel a chill on her face.
After a chilling, tooth-grinding sound of a blade striking the wooden floor—
A lock of hair near Chen Mengxi's ear was cut off by the incoming blade and fell to the floor.
"Cousin, are you alright?" Si Yisi cried, shaking Chen Mengxi desperately.
Si Yisi looks too weak... It doesn't seem like he's faking it at all, as if he's still in a state where he wasn't "possessed" by that demon back then.
Chen Mengxi cleverly and presumptuously guessed that the Shen Chen who she found terrifying was actually a split personality of the real Shen Chen.
The main personality, Chen Chen, is just a good-for-nothing who only knows how to cry!
A dark glint flashed in Chen Mengxi's eyes. She gripped the dagger formed from black mist tightly in her hand, and took advantage of this most opportune moment to launch a sneak attack—plunging it into Si Yisi's heart.
Just then, the scarred man's second slash came!
Si Yisi's lack of resistance brought a genuine sense of joy to his ferocious face. The scarred man truly believed that he had Si Yisi under control, so he kept slashing at him, wanting to cut the Gordian knot quickly!
Chen Mengxi's dagger slid towards... her clothes, creating a faint sound of fabric tearing.
She watched as Si Yisi, incredibly lucky, dodged completely without getting hurt even a hair on her head!
His eyes turned green with rage!
Si Yisi cried several times, his eyelids red and swollen. He sobbed softly as he awkwardly dodged another attack from the scarred man.
Then... Si Yisi glanced sideways at Chen Mengxi, who looked even more disheveled because of his teasing earlier, and finally decided not to go into the water anymore.
He had genuinely intended to use the scarred man to kill Chen Mengxi.
However, after failing to achieve his goal, Si Yisi cautiously decided to abandon the plan.
How could the protagonist be so easily defeated? In the last world of Si Mobai, Si Yisi considered himself to have barely escaped.
It means you need good luck to pass the level!
Therefore, in this small world where Si Yisi feels pitiful and weak, Si Yisi would never choose to act recklessly.
He decided not to sit idly by and wait to die... one of the reasons being! If he kept crying, what could he see with swollen eyes?! QwQ
Si Yisi slowly straightened up, wiping away his tears as he cried, looking incredibly weak and pitiful.
Yet this weak, pitiful boy faced the scarred man's blade head-on without flinching or dodging, his voice as faint as a dying lamb, having no strength left to move.
The scarred man couldn't help but let out a childish "hee-hee~" laugh from his throat...
Then, his laughter was like an attack that had been choked, stuck in his throat.
The moment the scarred man laughed, Si Yisi was instantly pulled from the blade of the meter-long machete to its hilt!
Neither the player nor the ghost could see how he did it; only the faint crying made the scarred man realize with horror that this was reality!
"Smack!"
The cleaver in the scarred man's hand was chopped down by Si Yisi with a single chop, hitting the floor with a dull thud!
Si Yisi caught the wooden stick that Mo Wuchang threw at her and smashed it hard on the scarred man's head!
Hehe~
Hehe~
The scarred man's skull was cracked open, but Si Yisi witnessed several small paper figures sprout from his once-perfect face in the next instant.
The scarred man's face and body began to undulate strangely, and when he finally stopped...
One after another, the little paper figures blinked their beady black eyes and made mocking laughs.
They were extremely pleased with themselves. The little paper figures that formed the head of the scarred man's humanoid form were now far apart, and Si Yisi's attack had not caused them any real damage at all!
This guy didn't even manage to put himself back together after being torn apart by Si Yisi!
The little paper figures looked so smug they wanted to dance, making strange giggling noises, probably thinking that Si Yisi couldn't do anything to them!
I'm so happy! We defeated the Great Demon King! Hehehe~
The child's voice had a slightly upturned tone at the end, giving it a creepy feel, but the dominant quality was its smug and incredibly annoying tone.
Si Yisi took a close look at them and was "frightened" to tears once again.
His tears flowed freely like water from a tap that had been turned on—and Mo Wuchang, after just one glance, immediately judged that Si Yisi was about to go all out!
Mo Wuchang didn't intentionally use a gaming term like "opening a big move" to describe his boss.
He genuinely felt that everything, from the "special effects" to everything else, truly resembled a game battle with an off-the-charts budget!
Si Yisi showed the little paper figure a crying and laughing expression. His eyes were crying, and his nose was as red as a cherry, but his expression was completely different from that of a weakling.
His lips were slightly upturned, and their color was so bright red that they looked as if they were stained with blood.
This unusually disjointed expression made Si Yisi look even more like a terrifying character from a horror movie than the little paper doll!
The little paper doll chuckled awkwardly—
The little paper figures found themselves being held tightly in the palm of the Great Demon King. Their companions tried desperately to save half of their bodies, only to see a small mouth opening in front of them.
A-Tu: "Hiss hiss hiss?!"
It was dragged out of its feigned "hibernation" by Si Yisi, and the first thing it saw was a terrifying little paper figure!
The little paper figure was also startled. What an ugly thing!
"It's up to you now." Si Yisi said slowly, entrusting a heavy responsibility to A Tu, as A Tu looked at him with a terrified expression.
Then... he opened Ah Tu's mouth and stuffed the little paper figure inside!
Baldy: "!!!"
"Slap slap slap!" A-Tu's tail thrashed wildly as if it were powered by a motor, struggling like a fish dying of thirst.
But it didn't work.
Your system daddy is your system daddy.
A-Tu was forced by his unscrupulous master to chew up the little paper doll in one bite. The little paper dolls were horrified to find that they could no longer sense the presence of their other half!
This doesn't make sense! Wasn't it supposed to be that only lighters could seriously damage them?!
I'm reporting a player for cheating in the game!
One chewing sound after another came from the ground, and the number of paper figures decreased rapidly, just like crops when locusts swarm across a field!
"whee……"
"Hehe QwQ"
The little paper figures retreated step by step, while Si Yisi pressed closer and closer, just like a village bully trying to take advantage of a respectable young man!
The little paper figures trembled with fear, their bodies shaking like waves, while they kept making giggles that sounded more painful than crying!
The last little paper figure was also stuffed into A-Tu's mouth by Si Yisi. It frantically crackled with electricity, turning itself into a living little light bulb.
Just as its unscrupulous owner finally let it go, A-Tu slammed down hard, white breath seemed to come out of its mouth, its eyes rolled back, and even its dragon horns withered considerably!
Waaaaah...
In an instant, Ah Tu and the little paper doll's thoughts were surprisingly aligned!
I'm dying! — I'm dead!
Si Yisi proved that A Tu could indeed purify evil spirits, and he showed a satisfied expression, then tears continued to stream down his face.
Si Yisi: "Waaaaah." — He maintained this incongruous whimpering tone while stuffing the paper dolls into his mouth... no, he was a crybaby.
Mo Wuchang shuddered, his face filled with terror.
Holy crap, is this how pets are used? Does that mean his little brother might end up being used like a rag doll?
At the same time, Chen Mengxi's "boyfriend" Shen Yingqing "flew" towards Mo Wuchang with a long knife.
Chen Mengxi, with a sinister look in her eyes, stabbed Si Yisi with a dagger—
waist!
