Chapter 450: The Flame Demon Arrives (10)
Xia Yueke and Afu were brought back to Bai Jinglan's base camp.
When they arrived at the place, Xia Yueke found that it was a hillside near the quicksand, surrounded by four or five tents. It seemed that they had been living here for the past few days.
When they arrived, Bai Jinglan let the others do their own work and arrogantly confiscated all their supplies. Ah Fu was also imprisoned.
Xia Yueke frowned at the people around him, "Bai Jinglan, what are you doing? What else do you want to do? Wasn't it enough that I blocked the knife for you last time? Do you want to continue this time?"
Bai Jinglan had no intention of joking at all. He flashed in front of Xia Yueke, took out a dagger from somewhere, and put it on her slender neck, his voice cold.
"Tell me, why are you still alive? What's your relationship with the game? Or are you a mini-boss in the game?"
Xia Yueke was asked, what on earth is going on? Why would Bai Jinglan have such an idea?
She couldn't believe it. "Should I die?"
Bai Jinglan thrust the blade forward a few inches, holding Xia Yueke's neck, and narrowed his eyes. "In the last game, I clearly saw you fall. And someone who broke the rules of the game can't possibly still be alive. This is the first time I've encountered an exception. Are you sure you have nothing to do with the game?"
Sweat was dripping down Xia Yueke's face. Bai Jinglan was too sensitive. If he didn't know the truth, he would have guessed 70% to 80% right.
Xia Yueke also knew that she absolutely couldn't tell him, otherwise she would be doomed. She could only stubbornly say, "Bai Jinglan, I really don't know what you're talking about. The game doesn't say that if you break the rules, you must die."
Bai Jinglan said coldly, "Impossible! I've experienced so many games before. Those who broke the rules and created weird stories are already dead. The grass on their graves might be a foot tall. Why didn't you die? Are you the mastermind behind this game?"
"If I kill you, will this game be over?"
Bai Jinglan moved his hand closer to Xia Yueke, as if he was going to wipe her neck in the next second.
Xia Yueke suddenly shuddered. She couldn't die. If she died, everything would be over. Besides, the game might even continue! After all, she had only been here for a few games.
Xia Yueke surrendered immediately, "Brother Bai, I really don't know. I'm not the mastermind behind any game. I just got lucky. After winning the first game, I accidentally got the resurrection armor. Now I can only survive after using the resurrection armor. I really have nothing to do with the game!"
Bai Jinglan narrowed his eyes, his expression indifferent, "Oh? Really? But how come I have never heard of this?"
Xia Yueke immediately smiled ingratiatingly. A wise man would not suffer a loss in front of him. He decided to appease Bai Jinglan first.
"Brother Bai, of course you haven't heard of it. This is a magic weapon, who would tell everyone about it? Maybe one of your brothers is so lucky. If you don't have it, then why don't you allow others to have it?"
Bai Jinglan chuckled, and his laughter was filled with sarcasm and suspicion, like a sharp wind blowing past.
"Do you think I'm a three-year-old? You're trying to fool me with this lame excuse?"
He crossed his arms over his chest and tilted his head slightly. The scar on his face was more eye-catching in the sunlight, making his expression look particularly stern.
"I've been in the gaming world for so long, and I've seen all sorts of weird things, but I've never heard of a resurrection armor."
His gaze was like a cold star, piercing straight at Xia Yueke, "You'd better tell the truth, don't force me to exhaust my patience."
He paced around Xia Yueke, each step was steady and powerful, raising the dust on the ground.
"Don't think I'll show mercy just because you blocked a knife for me. In this game, it's everyone for themselves. Being soft-hearted is courting death."
Bai Jinglan stopped abruptly and stared at her intently, "I'll give you one more chance. If you still don't tell the truth, don't blame me for disregarding our past friendship."
Xia Yuekexin said, "When have you ever cared about the past friendship?"
But Bai Jinglan didn't look like someone who would give up easily. Xia Yueke told the truth, but he didn't believe her. Now she didn't know what to do.
Just when Xia Yueke was in trouble, a figure rushed out like white lightning. In the blink of an eye, Xia Yueke flew away from Bai Jinglan.
Xia Yueke felt dizzy and when she came to her senses, she was already two or three meters away from Bai Jinglan. A strong force came from her waist, tightly holding her waist.
Xia Yuke looked up and saw that it was Cangwu.
How could he be here? Didn't he break up with her a long time ago?
Bai Jinglan stared at Cangwu intently, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, "Hey, Cangwu, you came just in time. I thought you two weren't together in this game. So you were hiding, and deliberately took advantage of this moment to attack?"
Cang Wu looked at Bai Jinglan coldly, "Why did you hurt my boss? What is your purpose? Do you believe that I will kill you right now?"
Bai Jinglan snorted, his eyes provocative, and then glanced at Xia Yueke playfully, "You don't know yet, do you? Your boss is hiding a lot of secrets. In the last game, I saw her die with my own eyes, and I didn't expect her to appear again."
"Cangwu, how about we work together? We'll definitely be able to find out something."
Xia Yuke's heart tightened. She was really afraid that Cangwu would suddenly turn against her. After all, she had treated him like this before. If he held a grudge against her, what would she do if he joined forces with Bai Jinglan to deal with her?
But who would have thought that Cangwu's focus was not on this, but his face darkened slightly, "What did you say? The boss had an accident in the last game, so why haven't you had any?"
Bai Jinglan choked.
Xia Yueke interrupted the two of them and looked at Cangwu with a cold expression, "Why are you still here? Didn't I tell you to leave? Why are you following me?"
Cangwu was questioned and could not say anything. He looked at Xia Yueke with a hurt expression, "Boss, please don't chase me away, okay? I don't know where to go when you are not here."
Xia Yueke was speechless. It was all his fault that he had been too kind to Cangwu in that game, which led to the current situation.
Bai Jinglan looked at the scene in front of him, gnashing his teeth and saying, "Hey, Cangwu, what are you doing? Didn't you hear me? Is there something wrong with Xia Yue? Do you still recognize her as the boss?"
Cangwu was annoyed by Bai Jinglan and looked at him with disdain, "So what? She's still my boss. Even if she has something to do with the game, it doesn't matter. This game won't kill anyone. Although it's a bit boring, it's not impossible to play it."
Bai Jinglan sneered, "Okay, since you don't care, I don't care either. After all, this game is fun for me. So what if I don't go out? I still have so many little brothers at my disposal. There won't be such a good thing outside!"
