Chapter 21: The City of the Grotesque (21)
Meng Duo asked, "What's the matter, but it's only been a day, how can they all get out of control?" β
Zhang Li said: "You haven't received any news? They said that I was the destroyer of the world, and that they would accept me as a demon for the way of heaven. β
Si Qi: "......"
Don't give yourself such a secondary name, hey! They didn't say anything but your life!
Dong Dongdong saw Si Qi's face full of complaints, and said in his heart that he had been with Zhang Li for a long time, and everyone wanted to vomit quickly.
"That's a bit of a problem...... Xiao smiled and said, "The waning moon will last for three days, and this is the next day, from tonight to tomorrow night, all the residents of the city will be able to move freely, and none of us will be able to run away at that time." β
Dong Dongdong couldn't help but ask, "What did you do that was so angry and resentful?" β
"That's it," Zhang Li took out the green glass ball city heart from the space, "They say this thing is the source of disaster, and if I take it, it means that I will bring disaster to them, and they have to kill me." β
"Isn't that a system task?" Dong Dongdong still remembers the people who were pitted back to the rest area.
"Hey," Zhang Li sighed and took back the heart of the city, "It's not a day or two that the system cheats, I'm used to it." β
The rescued people were confused, but they still heard the fact that the residents of the Grotesque City were chasing and killing Zhang Li.
Everyone met in Pingshui, Zhang Li and they came out to help, they didn't leave Zhang Li and them, it was enough, and then they had to face the monsters and perverts of the whole city, they were not King Kong's incorruptible body, the danger factor was too great, it was better to separate like this for everyone.
Some of those people said goodbye to Zhang Li and them directly.
Zhang Li smiled and said to them: "It is said that the waning moon period is very dangerous, you had better complete the task before tonight." β
Then he watched them go out. Anyway, you can't keep people, it's better to sell it, and then it's a blessing or a curse, it all depends on the individual.
There were two other people left, and Si Qi remembered that they were the first two to rush in to help.
Dong Dongdong said: "Do you want to stay?" β
The man in a green suit who looked like an elite pushed his glasses and said, "We don't have a place to go, so we just wait to return to the rest area after the waning period." β
Another chubby and naΓ―ve man smiled and chimed in, "Yes, yes." β
When Yang Yang heard their words, he floated around them, looked at them, and said, "It's more dangerous to stay with Sister Li, if you want to spend the waning moon safely, you should stay away from us." β
The elite man and the fat man saw Si Qi and Dong Dongdong's suspicious eyes, and they all knew that their behavior was very strange, and without a valid reason, everyone would think that their motives were impure.
Zhang Li said: "Since you want to stay, let's stay, as for whether it is safe to wait until the end of the waning moon period, there is no way to guarantee." β
Zhang Li opened his mouth and asked them to stay, and the others were not easy to say, so they each found a room to rest.
Dong Dongdong didn't understand what Zhang Li wanted to do, and in general, he never understood what she was thinking. Doing things is purely about thinking that one is one out, and there is no qualitative character of a hammer in the east and a hammer in the west.
But he felt that Zhang Li had a purpose in everything he did.
It's like a fascination.
The hidden mission has not moved, and the system is not as desperately urged as before as if it was reincarnated. Could it be because they are in danger now, so the system specially gave him a holiday?
When Dong Dongdong went downstairs to find something to eat, he saw Zhang Li cooking in the kitchen, so he simply stood by the door and looked at her.
After the tomatoes are cooked, pour in the freshly cooked eggs and stir-fry for two minutes, put the seasoning and stir-fry for another minute.
Zhang Li brought the plate to Dong Dongdong and motioned for him to put it on the dining table.
Dong Dongdong obediently put it away and stood back, finding a comfortable position to lean against the door.
Seeing him like this, Zhang Li laughed a few times and said, "What's the matter, the overbearing president?" β
"It's comfortable."
"It's more comfortable to go out and sit, you're standing here blocking my wind, it's hot."
Dong Dongdong had no choice but to change his posture with a small windshield area.
Zhang Li rolled his eyes.
I've never seen a neurotic who likes to watch people stir-fry so much.
Dong Dongdong looked at it for a while and said, "What do you think?" β
"What do you think?"
"Those two people."
Zhang Li was putting salt in the dish, his hand shook, and he put too much. She calmly continued to fry while saying: "That's it, stay if you want to stay, leave if you want, stop him from doing anything." β
"You're not afraid of their ......?"
Although I didn't finish speaking, the awareness of worry was well conveyed.
Zhang Li said indifferently: "Anyway, there are more than them around me, what are you afraid of." β
There are little ghosts, Si Qi and him, and there is really no need to be afraid of being vigilant at all times. It's just that when she thought of the people who could walk sideways in the city before, but now she had to avoid those who used to be her only obedient, Dong Dongdong sighed for a while, the world is impermanent.
When the meal was ready, Zhang Li asked them all to come down and eat.
When eating and chatting, Dong Dongdong knew that the name of the elite man in the suit was Shen Sili, and the fat man who always smiled and looked simple was called Jiang Daxin, and the two of them had been doing tasks together and were old partners.
They entered the game late, but luckily, it only took two days to get the task almost done, and the final task was to get through the waning moon period safely.
Although they knew that it was dangerous to follow Zhang Li, as two people who knew how to repay their kindness, they decided to stay.
Something that sounds very moving, Dong Dongdong always feels that they are full of excitement about tonight's uneventful, probably an illusion?
Si Qi also noticed their faint excitement, and became more alert to them, and glanced at Zhang Li, who was immersed in eating, and felt that it was better to remind her to be careful.
When Zhang Li returned to the room, Si Qi followed.
Zhang Li grabbed his hair, "What do you want to say?" β
Wouldn't it be Shen Sili and Jiang Daxin again?
Si Qi didn't pay attention to Zhang Li's helpless expression, and after confirming that no one was outside the room, he said, "I think Shen Sili and Jiang Daxin have a problem, so it's better for you to pay more attention." β
"Okay, I see, I'll be careful with them." Zhang Li smiled and said, "Do you have anything else to say?" β
Si Qi shook his head. She's just here for that.
"Si Qi, you should still have a task, will this delay your completion speed?"
Si Qi was stunned for a moment.
She had almost forgotten that she still had a mission.
"No, no, it's not a difficult task, and it will be done soon after the waning moon period."
"Oh so," Zhang Li nodded, "Then you can rest well, you still have to be busy tonight." β
Si Qi was pushed out of the room with a smile by Zhang Li.
"...... "So she's disgusted?"
Zhang Li, who closed the door, picked up the little yellow flower that had not withered on the dresser, and inserted it in his hair while humming a song.
