Chapter 161: their own scheming

"Mom, it hurts me so much!"

After suddenly erupting into a series of wails of pain, and not knowing where the strength came from, Chen Xiaoyao, who had just fallen to the ground, collapsed, covered his eyes and rolled, miraculously climbed off the ground and staggered to run, before running up to the girl who didn't know whether she was alive or dead.

He picked up Kong Ling and staggered away, moving away as far as possible from the faceless man in a suit who represented the source of the noise. It was obvious that Wood Release was indeed effective.

The faceless man was restricted from pursuing, but Mudun could not block the spread of noise, and because it could not block the noise, even if the man's movement was restricted and entangled in the tree, the reverberating noise would still affect him at all times, unless he

You can run 100 meters in a short time and run away from the area affected by the noise. Otherwise, if you continue to stay, you will not just have seven holes of blood and your eyeballs will explode!

Da, da da da, da da da.

Run! Run to the limit of your life. Run as far as you can while the creature is temporarily trapped by the wood escape. Even if you die, you must take the void spirit away from the dangerous area before death. As the old saying goes, one will always die.

It’s better than both of them dying!

The results were mixed, both good and bad.

The good news is that after some staggering running, Chen Xiaoyao successfully carried the girl 100 meters away and successfully escaped from the impact of the noise.

As for the bad news…

His physical strength had reached this point, and his energy was completely exhausted.

Then……

Plop.

The young Taoist priest fell down. After barely running a hundred meters away, his body went limp and he fell straight down. Together with Kong Ling, they both fell to the ground without moving.

This is the helplessness of mortals, this is the sorrow of mortals.

No matter how powerful you are, you may have many tricks, but you are still a mortal, and mortals always have limits. When the limit reaches the peak of physical support, even if you have the perseverance to support it, you will eventually have to face reality, the cruel reality of physical failure.

(It’s over, I’m dead. I didn’t expect to struggle to this point. I’m still going to die. But it doesn’t matter. I tried my best. Kong Ling also tried his best. It’s not because we are not strong enough, but because the beast is too strong. What the hell

It's like a monster that's even stronger than the Earthbound Spirit. It's not a shame to die in the hands of such a heaven-defying creature, but it's just... I'm not willing to give in. I'm still a little bit unwilling after all...)

The moment he fell to the ground, when he realized that he didn't even have the strength to move his fingers, Chen Xiaoyao was in despair. During his despair, his thoughts were wandering around. He was unwilling to give up and didn't want to die the night before victory. Yes, after all, this was the train's arrival at the end.

This is the last mission before. As long as the team can survive this mission, the team will get the golden key. With the key, they can go to the destination.

At the Hell Reincarnation Station, you can see the legendary mysterious place with your own eyes. As a result, the boat capsized. Unexpectedly, at the last moment when victory was about to be won, the boat capsized in the ditch, and unexpectedly encountered a creature that was not an earthbound spirit but was slightly stronger.

How could Chen Xiaoyao be willing to face such a result as a perverted earth-bound spirit creature? Therefore, even if he dies, he is destined to die in peace!

Chen Xiaoyao was not sure whether his ending would be to die in peace, but he was certain of another thing, an unexpected change that he had just discovered. Yes, just at the moment when Chen Xiaoyao had the unwilling thought, he discovered

What, what did I see? With the help of the faint light, the remaining round left eye could faintly see a black shadow running in front of me.

………

Chen Xiaoyao was unlucky. In fact, from the moment he entered the forest, he had been having bad luck. First, he was teleported away by a cursed mechanism, and then he was the first to encounter a locust and was chased by a locust. He finally fought hard

Fortunately, he escaped with his life, but not long after, he was deceived by Qi together with Kong Ling, who met by chance. The other party disguised himself as Peng Hu in an absolutely perfect way, and finally deceived the two of them.

Then, they were both captured, and both were trapped in the mental space by the strange attacks of the monsters.

This is an ability that no executor, including Chen Xiaoyao himself, has ever seen before. It can be called a fatal means of death. Once you enter, you lose the possibility of escape until you die in the spiritual space.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Kong Ling used props to escape from the spiritual space in a disguised form using an out-of-body method.

He originally thought that escaping from the spiritual space would save him from death, but unexpectedly, after letting go of the two of them, he took off his disguise and revealed his true body. He directly released noises in the appearance of a faceless man and attacked, causing the two people who finally returned to their souls to fall into a life-and-death crisis again.

, Kong Ling naturally fainted, but Chen Xiaoyao was miserable, for

Not letting the girl's efforts go to waste, Taoist Chen just resisted the noise and used Taoism when he was only 10 meters away. He used the only effective Wood Release to trap the faceless man, and then ran staggeringly with Kong Ling in his arms.

, he fell down, and after barely running a hundred meters, he collapsed from physical exhaustion.

Chen Xiaoyao thought he was finished, so he began to lament. While lamenting his bad luck, he felt unwilling to die. He didn't want to die. He really didn't want to die. It wasn't because he was afraid of death, but because he still had two wishes that had not been realized. To inherit Maoshan Taoism

That's one thing, but more importantly, he doesn't want to die on the last eve of victory. Even if he dies, he still has to see the legendary Hell Reincarnation Station before he dies, right?

Next…

He definitely didn't see the Hell Reincarnation Station, but he saw the black shadow a few seconds later.

Ahead, in the dim environment, a burly humanoid black shadow was running closer, running straight towards himself and Kong Ling.

Exhaustion of physical energy does not mean exhaustion of brain. At least he who had just got rid of the influence of noise did not think that he was dazzled. Even if he only had one eye left, it was precisely with his left eye that he could actually see the black shadow clearly.

The burly figure ran closer and closer to him, until the distance was close enough, and then he saw Peng Hu.

Smooth head, tall body, and that ferocious face full of flesh!

(Oops! Here we go again, it’s just too much!)

"Ah! Pindao will fight with you!"

It is often said that once bitten by a snake, Chen Xiaoyao was afraid of the rope for ten years. Seeing that the person looked so familiar, Chen Xiaoyao, who should have been overjoyed, was instead frightened and despaired for a moment. Then he instilled the energy to fight hard the moment the bald man arrived in front of him.

, using the last remaining strength, he jumped up suddenly, raised his palms, and slapped him. After swearing, he slapped Peng Hu directly in the face!

result……

Snap!

The bald man grabbed his right hand as he swung out suddenly, and he immediately got a fierce and angry scolding from the other party: "Damn! Are you crazy? Come on, come with me!"

(Um?)

I originally thought that the other party would repeat the same trick and put it on his forehead after catching me. Unexpectedly, the bald man did not drag himself into the mental space again as expected. Instead, he shouted angrily and picked himself up, then picked up Kong Ling and walked away.

Run, just like this, he led the two of them to run quickly, running farther and farther in the opposite direction of the noise.

Da da da da da.

At this moment, seeing Peng Hu beside him furious, and seeing the man's brows and head covered in cold sweat, Chen Xiaoyao was confused as he moved.

(What's going on? We were obviously captured again, but this time we have completely lost the ability to resist. If that's the case, why didn't we launch an attack? Why didn't we attack Kong Ling and me? Could it be that this time Peng

Tiger is...)

………

Time passes quietly, and the environment gradually changes. The day passes by wandering around, until night falls and the night returns.

The fourth day of the supernatural mission, time, 0:15, in a certain area of ​​the forest.

The branches piled up in mounds on the ground crackled softly under the flames, bringing warmth and light at the same time. Even if this light could only illuminate part of the scene, it was already considered valuable to Zhou Bingbing.

Under the light of the fire, Zhou Bingbing's face turned red and she was busy. In order to keep the flame burning for a long time, the woman would pick up branches and put them into the fire from time to time. Next to her, there was another person sitting beside her, a man, a gentle man wearing gold-rimmed glasses.

With the help of firelight, Zhao Ping stared expressionlessly down at the two cards in his hand.

If you look carefully, you can see that the two cards are printed with different numbers. One of them is printed with the Arabic numeral 1, and the other is printed with the Arabic numeral 6.

(Although I searched to no avail during the day, I can be sure that the curse did not lie. There are indeed cards in the forest, but they are just difficult to find. After all, the forest area is too large. It is indeed difficult to find all 8 cards in such a large area.

, Fortunately, I am not the only one in the forest. According to the probability, other people should have gained something more or less. If the evaluation is calculated in this way, the executor has collected about 4 to 5 cards so far.)

As mentioned above, Zhao Pingzheng was running his brain and thinking alone. After clarifying his personal intention early, he concentrated all his energy on collecting cards. This is true, but it is also true. In order to complete the task and return to the train as soon as possible, the man with glasses

Trying their best to save Zhou Bingbing last night, the two of them went together to search everywhere.

On the premise of completely giving up looking for companions, he only focused on the cards and ignored everything else. There is no denying that Zhao Ping tried his best. He would carefully search and mark almost every place he passed, but unfortunately, there was nothing, nothing. In other words, after the original forest

In addition to the No. 1 card and the No. 6 card that I accidentally discovered a while ago, I searched for it for a whole day, but so far I have found nothing.

Faced with these results, and as the time also entered the fourth day of the mission, Zhao Ping gradually felt uneasy. He stopped moving and rested when it was clear that no danger had occurred. Then Zhou Bingbing was full of surprise.

With his eyes he gathered branches and piled them together to make a fire.

Sure enough, Zhou Bingbing was at a loss after witnessing the obvious action of making fire by the bespectacled man. The reason was simple. Because the weather was too cold and it was winter, in fact Zhou Bingbing had been interested in making fire since she and Zhao Ping were walking together.

I am obsessed with it, yes, it is too cold, it is really too cold. Even if there is no snow in the sky, the mist and frost that spread all over the forest are still there.

Extraordinary people can endure it, but it is conceivable that ordinary people cannot endure it. How can Zhou Bingbing, who is already weak, endure it for a long time? During the move, Zhou Bingbing frequently shivered and became colder as she walked. Whenever she took a short break, the woman

The general meeting suggested starting a fire to keep warm, and the opinions were reasonable. However, Zhao Ping rejected him every time, and the man with glasses sternly rejected him without any reason!

Why not let it ignite?

This was the thought that suddenly popped into Zhou Bingbing's mind after she was rejected by the man. She did not deny that she had asked him for the reason many times, but unfortunately the man ignored her at all. It was not until the number of questions gradually increased that the man casually said the next sentence.

Not a reasonable answer:

"Ignition can easily cause fire."

After receiving this answer, Zhou Bingbing was immediately furious. What's the reason? Even if there are certain safety risks in lighting a fire to keep warm in a dry forest, the problem is that the two people present are not amnesiacs after all. You can't do it in front of others.

Put out the fire when you leave?

So naturally, Zhou Bingbing made a decisive rebuttal, and it was fine not to do so. As soon as she did, the man with glasses said this to her:

"If you want a fire to keep warm, you can light it yourself. I'll take my leave first."

With her heart full of grievances, Zhou Bingbing, who had no courage to be alone, finally compromised. She had no choice but to compromise. Who made her just a newcomer? And the earlier experience of almost being killed by a beetle stimulated women all the time.

, every time Zhou Bingbing recalled this place, her hair would always stand up in fear, and then she would subconsciously touch the wound on her face, and touch the ear under the bandage that had been cut off by a beetle in her dream.

Since she no longer wanted to be alone like before, Zhou Bingbing had no choice but to compromise and now followed Zhao Ping closely. Likewise, the man with glasses was her only support at the moment.

But, why?

When the time comes to night, when it enters midnight and early morning again, the man with glasses who insisted on safety and never lit a fire before took the initiative to collect branches and light a fire to keep warm while resting?

this……

Zhou Bingbing didn't understand at all now. Of course she asked the man with glasses why he went back on his word, but the man's answer was:

"Don't you wish you could light a fire to keep yourself warm?"

As the old saying goes, nothing can happen without profit, and it is true that nothing happens for no reason in the world. Many times people often have their own personal intentions when doing certain things. He Fei understands this, Cheng Ying understands, Peng Hu understands, or in other words

There is no one who can't understand it, even if he is physically

As a newcomer, Zhou Bingbing also understood clearly, but she had to accept it, because she was indeed very cold, very cold. Sure enough, when faced with Zhao Ping's rhetorical question in front of her, although she was puzzled, Zhou Bingbing could not understand it.

Bingbing finally accepted it happily, and then joined hands to help share the fire.

Time continued to pass, and the two of them were still leaning against the fire, feeling the warmth of the blazing flames. Zhou Bingbing recovered and felt a little comfortable after eating some bread by the fire. The only thing that puzzled her was...

Next to him, the man named Zhao Ping remained silent from beginning to end, just holding the card and looking at it repeatedly.

I don’t know whether it was curiosity or confusion about the man’s condition. Seeing that the other party ignored her for a long time, after throwing two branches into the fire, Zhou Bingbing cautiously opened her mouth and called out: “Hey, Senior Zhao, Senior Zhao?”

"Um?"

Zhao Ping, who had lowered his head in silence and seemed to be deep in thought, was brought back to reality by the woman. Xun Sheng raised his head and stared intently, and saw Zhou Bingbing staring at him with a frustrated look. Seeing this, Zhao Ping asked casually without knowing why, "What's the matter?"

Seeing the bespectacled man raise his head to answer, after hesitating for a moment, Zhou Bingbing finally plucked up the courage to ask a question and expressed her long-suppressed personal worries: "Well, it's nothing, I just want to ask when we can collect all 8 cards.

Ah? After all, three days have passed since entering the forest, and it has already entered the fourth day of the mission..."

Having said that, she pointed to the backpack beside her and the woman continued: "I just counted it and we don't have much food. According to the current consumption, if this continues, you and I probably won't be able to survive the last day."

Zhou Bingbing's worries are not unreasonable, and what he said is all true. It is true that everyone did bring drinking water and food when they came, but the problem is that these food are not enough for people to persist for a long time, at least not until the end of the mission. If

If this continues, it is expected that in one day

Days later, the food will be exhausted, and once there is no food as a supplement, they will only be hungry and looking for cards. It is conceivable that they will be wandering around looking for cards without food as a physical supplement. I believe

It won't be long before the two of them are completely exhausted.

This is the question that Zhou Bingbing is most worried about at the moment. The reason for asking this question is nothing more than to remind Zhao Ping to think of a way quickly, to remind the man to think of a way to collect all the cards and at the same time give a hint, hinting that if the other party really can't find it, you can do it anyway.

Do you want to leave a way out for yourself?

What is the way out? Obviously, that is to leave as early as possible and make a decisive decision to leave the forest while there is still a small amount of food left!

Yes, although Zhou Bingbing is as timid as a mouse, she is not a child who doesn't understand anything after all. As a woman who has achieved unlimited fame in reality because of hooking up with the company's young president, even a fool wouldn't believe Zhou Bingbing if she says she has no means or scheming.

, there is no doubt that Zhou Bingbing has her own scheming, or that she has no hope of finding cards from the beginning to the end. Her ultimate goal is to leave.

, she tried her best to leave this terrifying forest that was 100% inhabited by hawks, and her intention was clear. However, it was a pity that she did not dare to be alone. Ever since she experienced the near-death encounter last night, the woman had been completely frightened.

Then he regarded the senior man named Zhao Ping in front of him as his biggest support. It was good to have someone to accompany him, but the problem was that Zhao Ping didn't want to leave. The man seemed to have made up his mind and would not give up until he found all the cards.

Seeing that the man's intentions were completely opposite to his own, Zhou Bingbing started to save the country by relying on her own scheming. Without daring to directly propose leaving the forest, she instead made indirect hints and hints, trying to put psychological pressure on the man. Just like at this moment, the woman

He reminded me again on the grounds that there was not much food left, even though he kept his mouth open and kept searching.

Collecting cards is actually a hint to the other party that instead of looking for cards that can only be encountered by luck, it is better to change the plan and choose to evacuate. Even if you have already lost your way, it doesn't matter. As long as you keep walking in a straight direction in a certain direction, you will always be able to escape.

Leaving the forest, in addition to hinting, she also has another meaning. Simply speaking, it can be understood as self-protection!

I remember that when the lot was drawn, the senior female person named Cheng Ying had warned everyone that no matter what the final result of the draw was, no one could go back on her word, and she would kill anyone who dared to go back on her word. Based on her long-experienced perspective on people in the workplace, Zhou

Bingbing is sure that Cheng Ying is not lying, or that the person who can exude murderous aura is not lying.

Beautiful girls do have the ability to keep their word, at least they can be ruthless and decisive towards newcomers. If she exits the forest alone, Cheng Ying will most likely operate on her and use her life to kill other people.

Newcomers kill chickens to scare monkeys, which means Cheng Ying will definitely kill herself, but...

What if, what if Zhao Ping was there to accompany him out of the forest?

With this bespectacled man in front of him who is also a senior and seems to have a high status in the team, can Cheng Ying be able to kill decisively?

That's right, this is scheming, this is Zhou Bingbing's true intention!

The first thing she has to do now is to try her best to influence the other party, giving priority to making the man with glasses feel the pressure and force him to give up, and then use this as a basis to block Cheng Ying's murderous plan. Only in this way can she be truly safe. There is no doubt that

, Up to now, Zhou Bingbing still believes that only the forest is extremely dangerous, and everything he does is to leave the forest.

As for Zhao Ping...

After listening to the woman's true statement full of worry, the man was unmoved and just nodded in a nonchalant tone and responded: "Well, you are right, the food has indeed been reduced, and the possibility of surviving to the end is also very slim.

, but it’s okay to save money, and you might be able to collect a few more cards during this period, and with the number of cards collected by others, there may be hope.”

"Hope? But what you said is just hope. Are you sure that other people scattered around will be able to find cards like you? What if others don't find one? What if you are the only one in the real situation?

Are there two cards in your hand?" After receiving the man's optimistic answer, Zhou Bingbing immediately became anxious and hurriedly refuted it, directly responding to the opponent's optimistic guess with vicious guesses. The words he said were so precise that they could hardly be found.

A slight logical flaw.

Next, Zhao Ping stopped talking. After listening to Zhou Bingbing's defense and response, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he looked up and down at the woman with interest. It wasn't until Zhou Bingbing looked confused that the man looked up after a moment of study.

He raised his right hand, first adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, then changed the subject, and said something pointed to Zhou Bingbing: "Ms. Zhou, you seem to be very concerned about our current situation, or do you think you have something?"

Any plan?"

(What does he mean by this? Could it be that he saw my true intention? No, it’s impossible. I never mentioned leaving the forest from the beginning to the end. In any case, it’s impossible for him to guess my true intention. Or should I say,

Is he testing me?)

"Huh? Senior Zhao, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand? And what do you mean by 'plan' just now?"

Years of workplace experience have given Zhou Bingbing, who is already quite scheming, an excellent acting talent. Seeing that the man with glasses had something to say, the woman decisively pretended to be stupid and directly asked a question with a blank expression. Then, Zhao Ping smiled and after observing Zhou

Anyone can see Bingbing's picture

After a confused reaction that showed no trace of pretense, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, and then she pointed under her body at the two backpacks placed side by side and said something that sounded purely comforting to Zhou Bingbing: "Don't worry, two backpacks

The food put together is enough to eat."
