Chapter Ninety-Four: Dreams and Death: Protection Money?
The strange corpse added a touch of weirdness to the deserted rainfall plain, and what made my scalp tingle the most was whether it was the disgusting ghost or the corpse below that was screaming.
Cao Da buried both bodies, patted me on the shoulder, and said softly, "Don't think too much. Since you come to participate in this kind of competition, you will naturally encounter some terrifying things. ”
I swallowed and felt a little weak in my legs. He patted it vigorously and whispered, "I'm not scared, it's just a normal psychological reaction." Senior brother, this thing is elusive. And I don't know what he wants to do, what should we do? ”
"What else can I do, naturally I will find a way to kill us......" Cao Da said in a deep voice, "I'll try it." ”
He suddenly pulled out Zhang Dao Talisman, and then took out an ordinary peach wood sword that he was carrying, and pasted the Dao talisman on the peach wood sword. Then I saw him take out a bottle of red liquid and carefully sprinkle a little on the talisman.
Suddenly, with a bang, the Dao Talisman turned into a raging flame, making the entire peachwood sword a strange green flame. I was surprised: "Senior brother, you actually saved your own blood, how did you do it?" ”
"Isn't it just like a blood transfusion......," Cao Da asked suspiciously, "Do you really cut your finger every time you use the Dao Talisman?" ”
This...... That's what I thought.
While we were talking, a hand full of mud suddenly appeared in the grass, and the nails on the hand were very long and sharp, and they grabbed directly at Cao Da's leg.
I panicked. Hurriedly said Senior Brother be careful. Cao Da hurriedly took a step back, and quickly slashed the peachwood sword in his hand.
Another terrible scream came from the earth, and I saw the ugly man come out of the lawn again, and now he was covered in green flames, and he was rolling in pain on the grass. Cao Da hurriedly shouted: "Do it!" ”
I hurriedly slashed at the man, and he screamed again, and his body suddenly became transparent.
By the time we reacted, the man's body had completely vanished, leaving only a small wooden sign lying quietly on the grass. This small wooden plaque is about the size of a finger and has a cross written on it.
I put away the wooden sign and said helplessly, "This ...... It's too much trouble. ”
"It's a nuisance." Cao Da nodded.
It's just a little ghost in the Rainfall Prairie. We walked on this grassland for a long time before we came across it. We were able to deal with this ugly ghost because there were two of us, and if there was only one of them, it would be very troublesome to deal with.
And most importantly...... There are only ten Bai Yuanjing.
I sighed and said, "Even if we don't eat or drink, we have to kill two hundred to get two thousand Bai Yuan Crystals." It costs two Bai Yuanjing for accommodation every day, and other expenses are definitely not cheap. Brother. By the time we get enough Yuanjing, I'm afraid the game will be over long ago. ”
"And you have to be careful of other people's snatching......," Cao Da sighed, "We can't rely on this to get through, if we meet zombies, we should be able to earn more Bai Yuanjing." Although it is said on the map, zombies are more difficult to deal with than ghosts, and there must be more than ten Bai Yuanjing. In the evening, go to the tavern to see what is the way to earn Bai Yuanjing. ”
I nodded, and continued to search on the Falling Rain Plains with Cao Da.
Throughout the afternoon, Cao Da and I didn't encounter any zombies, only two weaker ghosts, which were calmly solved by me and Cao Da.
Thirty Bai Yuanjing is in the account, at this rate, when will it take to get enough two thousand Bai Yuanjing, it is estimated that Yuanmen wants us to snatch the contestants later, which is the fastest way to get Yuanjing.
Cao Da and I returned to the village exhausted, and in order to fill our stomachs, we went to the tavern. But when I came to the tavern, after admiring the antique wood decoration of the tavern, I was dumbfounded by the price of the things here.
Let's just say that the cheapest thing in the tavern, a bottle of dark beer costs five Bai Yuanjing, and a bowl of egg fried rice also costs five Bai Yuanjing!
"My God......" I said in astonishment, "Senior brother, it costs fifteen Bai Yuanjing to eat a meal here, this is simply a slaughterer." Before, I thought the accommodation was quite cheap, but it turned out that they were starting with food. ”
People are iron and rice are steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic.
Yuanmen's hand is really ruthless, Cao Da and I worked hard to earn thirty Bai Yuanjing a day, and now we are halfway there. What's more, we didn't eat lunch, and if lunch was included, the daily cost would be nearly thirty Bai Yuanjing, which would simply force the contestants to a dead end.
Fortunately, Yuanmen also knows that he has to eat full, and the amount of egg fried rice is quite large, which is equivalent to two bowls of ordinary rice. Dark beer is also a liter of the type, which is completely enough for me and Cao Da to drink.
We ate in silence, quietly waiting for the girl at the front desk of the hotel to say how to make money.
There are more and more people in the tavern, and when they see the prices on the menu, people are complaining, and even some girls can't help crying, it seems that it is not easy for everyone to make Yuanjing.
The tavern was very large, and the tables and chairs were crowded enough to seat about 400 people. Outside are crowded tables and chairs, but inside are private seats. The waiter told us that if we wanted to sit in a private seat, we had to consume a minimum of fifty white yuanjing. So, all the contestants were sitting outside in a circle, and inside were the Taoist priests from the Yuanmen headquarters.
The delicacies on the table of those Taoist priests were very tempting, good wine, lobster, crab, beef, and Cao Da and I swallowed our saliva directly.
But there is no way, there is no money to accept fate.
After the egg fried rice was finished, Cao Da and I were sitting and drinking, when we suddenly heard a noise from a seat not far away. Vote for itaba.
We followed the prestige and found that it was a table of contestants arguing with several Taoist priests from the Yuanmen headquarters, and one of them was red-faced, and his green muscles were exposed: "If you work hard, you will earn dozens of Bai Yuanjing, and you will also collect protection money from us." Grass, what if it doesn't give it to you? ”
Protection fee!?
Both of us widened our eyes in shock, how could anyone still collect protection money in this competition?
The leader was a young man dressed in white, he looked at the other party with a smile, and when the other party finished speaking, he said calmly: "Of course you can choose not to give, but on this island, I am much more familiar than you." If you have an accident, don't blame me. ”
Hearing this, the man was immediately stunned, he scolded in a low voice, and then took out Bai Yuanjing with his companions. I was dumbfounded when I saw it, because there seemed to be quite a few of them.
"Yuanmen even allows disciples to collect protection money...... I swallowed my saliva and whispered, "Senior brother, how many more Bai Yuanjing do we have?" ”
Cao Da gritted his teeth and said: "At first, there were twenty, and then I earned thirty, it cost one to buy a map, two to stay, fifteen to eat, and ...... Thirty-two. ”
I sighed and said, "If people take less, just give it, he is right, we don't know anything about this place, if we lose our lives for Bai Yuanjing at that time, it will be completely worthless." ”
Cao Da also nodded, agreeing with my statement.
The group of people took every table, and when they arrived in front of us, the man in white smiled and said, "Both, please hand over Yuanjing." ”
I swallowed and asked, "How much?" ”
He smiled kindly and whispered, "Normally, it's ten per person." ”
Cao Da and I both heard a pain in the flesh, Cao Da reluctantly took out twenty Bai Yuanjing, the man in white still kept smiling, but did not choose to take it, he smiled: "I just said, normally speaking, ten Bai Yuanjing per person." But you are different, you have to hand over all the Bai Yuanjing. ”
I suddenly chuckled in my heart and asked not very happily, "Why?" ”
His smile slowly froze, and then a fierce light appeared in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Because you are different from them, they are just bullied contestants, and you are a group of small people, disgusting ants." ”
"Grass!"
I was completely enraged by this statement, slammed the table hard, and roared angrily: "Isn't it to find fault? ”
The man remained silent, and a familiar voice came from a certain seat in the tavern.
"Say you're ants, and you're not convinced?"
It's a woman's voice.
Cao Da and I followed the prestige, only to see a figure slowly standing up on the other side of the seat.
She has short black hair that reaches her chin, wears a black sports vest on her upper body, and has a flat stomach without a trace of fat in her lower abdomen. The lower body is wearing a triangular tight black leather pants similar to underwear, from the butt to the thighs, there is no loose skin, and it is very firm.
Dressed sensitively, with a fatless body, and bronzed skin on every inch of my body, three words came to my mind - Lian Jiazi.
The woman had a belt on her lap, and a dagger that glowed in the dim light was tied to it, making her scalp tingle. She looked up at us, she was supposed to be middle-class and upper-class, but because of the scar on her cheek, it added a touch of hideousness.
Gauze! Skillful! Skillful!
