Chapter 1020: Give up your illusions and prepare for a fight
I don't care if the tied up messenger will refuse.
I'm curious about what kind of treasure could make us kill him.
If you can really kill him, then this treasure should be very powerful.
Such a powerful treasure, the people of the underworld gave it to us so casually?
It doesn't make sense.
In my puzzled eyes, the tall messenger pulled out a vial from his body.
He said to the messenger who was bound, "I have sinned."
Then he reached out and tore off the man's shirt.
The tall messenger fastened the vial to the man's back.
Then, the flesh on the face of the bound messenger twitched, and it seemed to be a little painful.
The tall messenger took the vial away.
We glanced at the back of the bound messenger and were startled.
On his back lay a colorful bug.
It stands to reason that rainbow-like insects are actually very beautiful, but we feel sick to our stomachs.
Maybe it's because this thing is so weird that it's beyond our knowledge.
The bug was clearly sucking blood, as its body was rapidly getting bigger.
Then it made a cocoon on the bound messenger.
The tall messenger took out a small wooden box and handed the cocoon to us.
He said to me, "Just open the wooden box, and the chrysalis inside the cocoon will turn into butterflies."
"The moment you turn into a butterfly, you will lay eggs."
"And the place where the eggs are laid is only on this fellow."
"Because he sucked this fellow's blood to lay eggs."
I groaned and said, "And then?"
The tall messenger was stunned for a moment, and said, "Then ......."
"And then this dude will not survive."
"Because this moth lays tens of thousands of eggs, and each egg hatches a bloodsucking worm."
"These bloodsuckers will suck the blood out of his body in just a few breaths."
"In fact, for the people of the underworld, sucking blood is equivalent to sucking souls."
"That is, in a matter of minutes, his soul will be completely consumed."
"And the eggs are in his body. There's no way for him to get rid of it."
I groaned and said, "So this thing...... I can only deal with this guy, but not others?"
The tall messenger nodded.
He smiled and said to me, "None of you are stupid, and I know your methods."
"If I really give you a big killing weapon, I don't know what kind of mess you will make."
"So, I also put a forbidden spell on this box."
"You can't open it yourself, you can only open the box if it's attacked, and it's this guy's attack."
I nodded and said, "It's very thorough."
The tall messenger smiled, "It's over."
Then, together with the Humpty Dumpty Emissary, he untied the bound Emissary from his body.
When the two of them were done, they arched their hands at us and turned to go off into the distance.
It didn't take long for them to go into the darkness and disappear without a trace.
Jin Shengshui and I laughed at the messenger who was tied up just now: "Brother, we don't know each other if we don't fight."
The messenger snorted coldly and turned to leave.
Jin Shengshui looked at the back of the messenger and said to me, "Big brother. Shall we just let him go? Just let him go?"
[In view of the general environment,
I shook my head: "It's better to chase after the poor, not to become a famous overlord."
"He still wants to go? Hehe, how can there be such a good thing."
I said to Li Xuexian and the head of the cow, "You two are waiting for us here, don't move."
The two men nodded their heads repeatedly.
I was not at ease, and said, "If you leave your position without permission and the cinnabar in your body explodes, don't blame me for not warning you."
Jin Shengshui added very doggedly: "Don't say it unexpectedly."
Li Xuexian and Master Niu's faces changed slightly, and then nodded.
As for the two of us, we quickened our pace and reached behind the messenger.
At this time, we were already far away from the Guandi Temple.
The messenger is navigating the vast underground space, seemingly looking for a way back to the underworld.
I sighed and said, "You say, this village is at the bottom of the lake, why is there no water here?"
Jin Shengshui said, "Isn't this simple? It must have been some magic spell from the underworld that drained all the water and carried it away."
I asked the messenger, "Is that so?"
The messenger ignored me.
I scolded, "I'm talking to you, you're stepping on the horse's ears and stuffing green hair?"
The messenger was startled and turned to look at me.
I guess I didn't expect that I would suddenly scold him.
And then I said, "What do you see? Be careful to chop your head off."
Jin Shengshui also sneered and said, "Big brother, don't talk nonsense with him, just kill him."
"Actually, I beat him up just now, and I don't think it's enjoyable, and I want to do it again."
Jin Shengshui said that's it, picked up a stone from the ground, and threw it at the messenger.
The messenger tilted his head and dodged the stone.
Although the stone did not hit him, the face of the messenger was already extremely angry.
The two of us followed the messenger all the time, sometimes scolding him and sometimes stoning him.
Our purpose is simple, to provoke him, to make him attack us, and then to kill him.
It's not that we're too bad to be creditworthy.
But...... We know this guy all too well.
He didn't attack us because he had a tall messenger as a guarantor, so he temporarily suppressed the desire to kill us.
As soon as he frees his hands and relieves himself, we will surely die.
So...... Give up illusions and get ready to fight.
Strike first, kill him, and then talk.
