Chapter 36: Thirty-six Days of Salted Fish



036:

Gu Qingchuan and Baldy were both worried about the boss.

They were both horrified to discover that what the fish-man monster said was true.

In this place, superpowers and companion talents are ineffective.

——The two of them can no longer feel their own special abilities and accompanying talents.

Now they are no different from ordinary people!

This fish-man monster can directly pull them into its territory and claim it will not harm anyone. Can you believe what the monster says?

The broken human statues on the bridge suddenly flashed through Gu Qingchuan's mind.

He suddenly had a terrifying guess that was extremely terrifying when he thought about it carefully.

——What if those human statues were transformed from real people?

——Then, it was this fish-man monster in front of me who did it.

He and Baldy couldn't tell whether Sang Luo had lost his superpowers and accompanying talents like them.

Their inner inclination is gone.

Otherwise, the big boss wouldn't have been dragged in with them.

He should have taken action the moment he was pulled in and killed the murloc monster directly.

I've seen how Sang Luo treated the monster.

The two did not think she would be merciful when facing monsters.

Therefore, at this time, the safest way is not to provoke the murloc monster.

Gu Qingchuan used his top-notch expression management and high emotional intelligence to suppress his fear of the murlocs, and said with a smile:

"This... beautiful lady, my master likes to joke around, so please don't take it seriously."

The bald man was also feeling uneasy.

But Gu Qingchuan couldn't help but twitch his lips when he heard the word "beautiful lady".

This former Ming Dynasty figure was really good at telling lies with his eyes open.

You can even call such a weird monster "beauty".

He would never be able to yell that out.

The fish monster seemed to be delighted by Gu Qingchuan's "beautiful lady". Its anger dissipated visibly and it ignored the person who made it angry on the massage chair.

It blinked its blood-red eyes, which were stained with violence, and stared at Gu Qingchuan for a long moment before softly speaking, "Is that so?"

The question was directed at Gu Qingchuan, but its gaze finally squinted strangely at the bald man.

It seemed like she was asking him again.

The bald man felt a chill run down his spine as it stared at him, and he quickly replied, "Yes."

His eyes did not move away.

Bald Fu Lin added sincerely: "Beautiful lady."

——Those who achieve great things must be able to bend and stretch.

The fish-man monster narrowed his eyes, showing his delight.

It turned its gaze back to Gu Qingchuan, its tail dripping with slime swaying from side to side, and its voice was as sweet as honey:

"You are very handsome. I like you very much."

Gu Qingchuan's scalp tingled.

He had been liked by many people and was proud of it, but no one's "like" had ever made him so creepy.

The fish-man monster said "I like it".

But what he saw in those blood-red eyes was greed for him.

It really liked him.

I like him so much that I want to eat him.

Gu Qingchuan said slowly: "It is my honor to be liked by you."

The lines, tone, and logical emphasis are all perfect, and sound particularly sincere and affectionate.

"You said she's your master?" The fish-man monster changed the subject and pointed at Sang Luo, his sweet tone turning cold and gloomy. "Why should she be your master?"

Gu Qingchuan considered how to best answer.

Without angering the murloc, you also have to raise Sang Luo.

"Of course it's because of my beauty." A familiar voice sounded, and Sang Luo spoke lazily.

The fish monster heard the hidden meaning in her words and stared at her intently: "You mean, I'm not beautiful?"

"My servant called you 'Beautiful Miss', do you really think you are a beauty?"

Sang Luo opened his eyes and glanced at it, then turned away in disgust:

"Look in the mirror. Narcissism is a disease and needs to be treated."

Gu Qingchuan: “…”

Bald: “…”

system:"……"

The system that had just connected to the data was horrified when it saw this and quickly reminded:

"Host! Do you know that you are now an ordinary person without any special abilities?"

Sang Luo's system data has been refreshed and all of it is gray and unusable.

Even if the system awakens other abilities for her immediately, there is nothing it can do.

The space of the fish monster's territory seems to be a world of its own, completely excluding everything else.

It is so arrogant because it thinks its host doesn't know.

Unexpectedly, Sang Luo said, "Yeah," "I know."

The tone is very relaxed.

system:"……"

Then you are courting death.

Could it be that the dog-eat-dog mentality that has been there for half a year has emerged again?

Its nemesis host wants to take advantage of the opportunity to mess up! ?

Sang Luo added: "Isn't what I said the truth? Honesty is a virtue."

The system is hopeless.

God damn honesty is a virtue.

"And you." She glanced at the shocked faces of Gu Qingchuan and the bald man one by one, "Who gave you the courage to bow and scrape to please others in front of the master?"

Gu Qingchuan moved the corners of his mouth but couldn't say anything. The fishman monster in Yu Guangzhong seemed to be about to explode with anger.

The bald man scratched his forehead and an idea suddenly occurred to him: The master is so powerful and ruthless in dealing with monsters. Is it because his supernatural powers have not disappeared that he is so confident?

This is the logic.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful his master is, without his supernatural powers, he would have to be a little more amiable when facing the terrible monster.

Thinking of this, the bald man breathed a sigh of relief.

Now my scalp is no longer numb, and my heart is no longer anxious. I feel full of energy!

"Master," he said quickly, "I just felt sorry for this ugly fish monster and called out to him out of consideration."

After saying that, he used the power of the tiger to bully the fishman and said sarcastically:

"I advise you to be smart and let us out, otherwise you'll end up being eaten by my master in fish head soup!"

The system covered its face.

The bald man never lets it down.

It almost anticipated the bald result.

How could the fish monster possibly tolerate this?

How can the host who has lost his superpowers resolve this crisis?

The system feels that unless a miracle happens...

However, unexpectedly, the fish monster did not get angry on the spot.

It just stopped wagging its tail and looked at the bald man quietly.

The bald man thought to himself that behind him was his super powerful master, so he had no reason to be afraid.

So he looked down at the murloc monster with a disdainful and arrogant expression, as provocative as he could be.

"I was planning on having you play a fun game with me."

After a moment, the fish monster spoke softly, his voice no longer as sweet as before, but now filled with malicious coldness:

"But I changed my mind. I want to watch you play games."

Still so arrogant?

The bald man frowned.

"Ah..." The fish monster suddenly clapped his hands again, "There aren't enough players for this game. We need to grab a few more."

After saying that, it disappeared.

I took a special look at them as I disappeared.

It seems to be saying: Let you live a little longer.

"Master, how do we get out?"

The bald man knew that the boss could definitely go out at any time, but he couldn't ask directly when he would go out, as that would seem like urging him.

So he changed his question to asking how to get out, which had the same meaning but was much more tactful.

The longer I stay in this place, the creepier it gets.

Sang Luo leaned back in the massage chair, yawned, and sleepily uttered three words: "I don't know."

Bald: “……?”

He suddenly realized something in a flash, and his mind seemed to be blown by a sudden thunder. He asked cautiously, "Master, your supernatural power has disappeared too?"

Sang Luo: “Yeah.”

Hearing this, the bald man fell silent, with a look of bold fear in his eyes.

After a moment, he stammered, "I thought your ability hadn't worn off."

That is to say.

Now the boss is just an ordinary person like him.

Then he thought back to what he had said and his attitude towards the fish monster through Sang Luo.

The bald man felt numb all over.

Gu Qingchuan's expression was quite complicated.

Like the bald man, he saw Sang Luo continuously fighting against the fish-man monster and acting so tough, and he was almost certain that her special ability had not disappeared.

result? ? ?

The two looked at each other.

They both saw despair in each other's eyes.

An ordinary person without superpowers and weapons, locked up in someone else's territory, facing strange monsters, the ending is definitely determined.

They probably understand why the boss wants to fight hard in this situation.

Because she is the boss!

She has pride and will not bow to monsters.

Even if it means death.

Do whatever feels good to you.

But they haven’t lived enough TAT.

Gu Qingchuan took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down quickly.

The murloc asked them to play a game.

It means there is still a chance.

Never give up until the last moment.

"Shen Luo, what kind of game do you think the fish monster will let us play?" Gu Qingchuan asked carefully.

Sang Luo still said those three words: "I don't know."

Gu Qingchuan: "Are you not worried at all?"

Sang Luo: "I'm worried."

Gu Qingchuan: “…” I’m sorry, I can’t tell at all.

Sang Luo glanced at him sideways: "Afraid?"

Gu Qingchuan: “…a little bit.”

Life and death, any normal person would be afraid, okay?

Sang Luo glanced at the bald man's miserable face again: "Are you scared too?"

The bald man puffed out his chest, his expression firm: "If the master is not afraid, then I am not afraid!"

system:"……"

Even at this time, he still did not forget to show his loyalty.

Should we say he is stupid or smart?

Sang Luo's lips curved slightly, her butterfly-like eyelashes drooped slightly, casting a faint shadow. She said nonchalantly:

"As humans, we are all destined to die. It's only a matter of time, especially in the end times. We must always be prepared to die."

Both of them: “???”

There is a huge difference between dying early and dying late!

"So..." Sang Luo's voice slowly stretched out, becoming more and more lazy. "If the enemy comes, we will fight them; if the water comes, we will block it with earth. If we can't stop it or block it, then we will die peacefully."

The two grown men had nothing to say.

I just feel that the future is bleak.

The big guys are all giving up.

What else can they do?

Although the three of them were on the deck of the ship and could feel the salty sea breeze, when Gu Qingchuan looked down at the bottom of the ship and into the distance, he saw a thick fog and could not see the specific situation at all.

He turned around and glanced at the cabin thoughtfully: "Luo Shen, I think we can go inside and take a look?"

Sang Luo waved his hand disinterestedly: "Go if you want."

The bald man thought there must be danger in the cabin, but Gu Qingchuan's words made sense. He hesitated and said, "I'll go with you."

The two of them walked into the cabin together.

They all tacitly did not mention Sang Luo.

"Did you play games before?" asked the bald man.

"I play mobile games occasionally, but my skills are average. How about you?" Gu Qingchuan looked around vigilantly. The cabin was very dark and there was a smell of coal dust in the air.

Bald: "I'm talking about real-life games."

Gu Qingchuan: "Too many."

He has appeared on variety shows, playing a variety of games.

Gu Qingchuan: "I understand what you mean. I think it's useless to use the games we played before to guess what game the Murloc wants us to play."

The bald man pounded the bulkhead impatiently, making a clanging sound. "I have a bad feeling."

Gu Qingchuan didn't say anything.

He is the same.

Soon, they had to stop - an invisible screen appeared in front of them.

Obviously they were not allowed to go any further.

The two had no choice but to return the same way they came.

Seeing that Luo Shen didn’t even change her posture, with her eyes closed, I wondered if she was asleep.

“…”

Not daring to disturb her, they stood on either side of her like protectors, silently waiting for the unknown outcome.

Time passes by every second.

Suddenly, a person fell from the deck with a thud.

He was a young man wearing a white shirt, with an elegant temperament. However, the way he fell on the deck made him look quite embarrassed.

He turned over and stood up. When he saw the unfamiliar environment, his expression changed for a moment, but he quickly controlled his emotions and recovered immediately.

When his eyes fell on the person in the massage chair, his pupils suddenly shrank.

After a moment, the man said happily: "What a coincidence, Miss Sang, I didn't expect to meet you here."

The girl on the massage chair didn't seem to hear what he said and still had her eyes closed.

The man's eye twitched.

The bald man asked directly: "Who are you?"

The people of Luoshen Castle only call Sang Luo "Luoshen".

He was a stranger, but he knew Luo Shen.

"I'm Wen Sheng. To be honest, I came here specifically to see Miss Sang." The man frowned. "I didn't expect a fish monster to suddenly appear and tell me I had trespassed into its territory. They wanted me to play a game, and then I showed up here."

"Come to see me specially?" Sang Luo opened his eyes.

Wen Sheng nodded. "I heard about the fame of Luoshen Fort on the way. I was curious, so I thought of visiting Luoshen Fort. Unfortunately, you were not there when I arrived this morning. I had planned to wait for you to come back before visiting you, but unexpectedly I witnessed someone invading Luoshen Fort."

He looked serious and spoke in a calm and earnest tone, which made people believe him inexplicably.

The bald man's face changed, and Gu Qingchuan's eyes were cold - they both believed Wen Sheng's words at the same time. No one would tell a lie that could be proven by asking later.

"As expected, the intruder is an S-rank Wind type, very powerful. He forced the people in the castle to reveal your whereabouts. Your companion told the intruder that you were in M ​​City. He captured a girl and left. He should be going to M City to find you."

The bald man asked: "Who did you catch?"

Wen Sheng: "He is said to be Miss Sang's closest person."

The girl closest to Luoshen...

This description must be Hu Lingling.

Sang Luo lowered her eyes, and no one knew what she was thinking.

After a few seconds, she raised her eyes and stared at Wen Sheng, but she didn't ask about the intruder taking Hu Lingling away, but:

"You said you came to Luoshen Castle to visit me because of my reputation. You had never seen me before, but you recognized me the moment you saw me."

The woman's eyes seemed to be able to see directly into his heart.

Wen Sheng thought to himself that this person was indeed someone who could make him feel threatened.

Why could he recognize it?

Of course, I learned it from Hu Lingling's memory.

But he had plenty of tricks: "I have a companion talent that's perfect for finding people. After knowing some specific information, I can directly retrieve the other person's photo. It's through this ability that I can recognize you at first sight."

Jian Sheng set off immediately after making the decision to go to Haicheng to find Sang Luo.

He changed his clothes, took off his mask, and applied some makeup to his face.

In this way, the appearance of three points can be improved to six or seven points.

The plan to transform into Hu Lingling and sneak into Luoshen Castle could no longer be carried out.

He planned to surrender using the information about the invaders, and then win Sang Luo's favor with his good looks.

As long as I can get close to Sang Luo.

His hunting plan was half successful.

He arrived not long after Sang Luo entered Haicheng.

Driving all the way to chase.

——Worried that the man in black didn’t find Sang Luo in M ​​City and went to Hai City instead.

The opponent is an S-level wind type, and its speed of traveling is second only to that of the space type.

If he found Sang Luo before him, his plan of surrender would naturally fail.

He must find Sang Luo as soon as possible, so that when the man in black comes to him, he can kill him together with Sang Luo.

In this way, he could avenge the loss of his consciousness and gain Sang Luo's friendship.

But what Wen Sheng never expected was that another accident happened.

As soon as he entered Haicheng, he sensed several threats to him one after another.

This means that there are many people in this city who are stronger than him.

Wen Sheng immediately became alert and continued to move forward cautiously, going deeper inside, trying to confirm where these threats came from.

However, the further we went in, the vaguer the perceived threat became.

Although his ability level has been reduced to A, Wen Sheng was once an S-level psychic after all.

The entire Haicheng made him keep popping up crazy warnings in his mind.

Just based on this point, anyone with a certain degree of common sense would definitely back off.

However, for people like Wen Sheng, danger means excitement.

The more dangerous the place, the more he likes it.

His appetite grew even bigger.

Not only does he want to swallow up his designated target, Sang Luo, but the threats posed by Haicheng have also been added to his list.

When Wen Sheng wanted to use threats to determine Sang Luo's location, the outward mental power suddenly gave him a bad premonition.

Immediately afterwards, his mental power was devoured, and a fish-man monster suddenly appeared.

Then he was thrown onto the boat.

As the murloc said, supernatural powers and companion talents are ineffective.

His emotions were almost out of control.

But at this moment, he saw Sang Luo.

"Miss Sang, I'm so sorry. I was there when your companion was captured by the invaders, but I couldn't help," Wen Sheng said in a deep voice. "They're very strong. I'm no match for them... They don't look like they'll give up. You must be careful."

The system was very worried: "If what he said is true, this intruder should be the villain Ji Congwu."

See, I've offended you so badly.

It said that the grudge between the two people had grown bigger.

With the villain's temperament, Hu Lingling fell into his hands...

The system couldn't bear to think about her current situation.

Sang Luo didn't say anything.

Systematically view her emotional data.

Boy, nothing has changed.

It couldn't help but ask: "Aren't you worried about your chef at all?"

Sang Luo said calmly: "The truth of the matter has not even been confirmed, why are you so worried?"

System: "The handsome boy seems quite sincere, he doesn't seem to be lying."

Sang Luo smiled: "Sincerely?"

The system was frightened by her laughter.

Sang Luo said:

"This man said he wanted to visit me. He sounded very modest, but everything he said showed that he put himself on the same level as me."

"His every word and action is filled with the superiority of being a high-level psychic. Even though he is trying hard to hide it, it's a pity that his acting skills are not as good as Gu Huaping's."

The system was stunned when it heard this.

Sang Luo concluded indifferently: "His consciousness is quite good. If I am not mistaken, he should be an A-level or S-level psychic."

"For a master of the psychic system, manipulating the thoughts of others is easy. Even though his supernatural powers are ineffective in the domain, it doesn't mean that he won't bewitch others without his supernatural powers."

"The most important thing is, I never believe in sincerity," Sang Luo said, changing the subject. "If someone shows kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."

system:"……"

What you said makes a lot of sense.

But it still wants to ask, haven’t you ever met a sincere person before!

At this time, someone else appeared.

It was a short-haired woman, wearing combat clothes and holding a gun in her hand. When she came to her senses, she pointed the gun at everyone with a vigilant look on her face.

Wen Sheng didn't even look at her, his attention was all on Sang Luo.

This woman was actually indifferent to what he said!

There is no superfluous expression at all.

Is it because his face is not handsome enough and she doesn't like it, so she doesn't believe what he says?

Then another person appeared on the deck.

Wen Sheng glanced at it casually.

“…”

Oh shit.

His expression cracked for a moment.

Is God playing a joke on him?!

This guy is the one in black clothes.

He arrived at Haicheng so quickly and was dragged into the territory of the fish monsters just like him.

Wen Sheng took a deep breath, calmed himself, and said to Sang Luo in a tone of surprise that was just right: "Miss Sang, he is the intruder I was talking about."

Before he finished speaking, the man in black clothes appeared - the villain Ji Congwu had already locked onto the person on the massage chair.

In an instant, everyone present felt his undisguised murderous intent.

The inhuman fire in the man's eyes deepened and flickered rapidly, as if he was suppressing a wild beast that was about to break out of a cage.

Cruel and cold.

"Sang Luo." His pale lips parted slightly, his voice surprisingly gentle, "Long time no see."

Gu Qingchuan and the bald man shuddered almost at the same time, even though the other party's eyes were not locked on them.

The system tried desperately to suppress the instinct to scream.

The great villain in his heyday!

The momentum is completely different from that day in the dense forest.

Fortunately, no one has any special abilities right now, so there shouldn’t be any fighting.

And the villain seems quite friendly...

The system couldn't help but remind: "Host, let's be a little more polite..."

Sang Luo placed his hands on the armrests of the massage chair, raised his eyelashes slightly, and his eyes were cold:

"Calling the master by his name is a crime punishable by death."

After a pause, Grace:

"Since this is your first offense, please kowtow and apologize."

Big villain: “…”
