Cupid is looking for me? Zhang Yuanqing's heart sank. He had just learned about the grudge between "him" and Cupid from Herasini, and now he was being summoned.
Especially when he slept with his mother's maid and laid the foundation for his trouble.
Alas, am I the version of a bastard with a Western background who is too good and is hated by his legitimate son? He thought in his heart that he was enjoying the misery.
Cupid has been displeased with me for a long time, but he has never killed me. Apparently he is jealous of my bloodline. Even if he is a concubine, he is still a descendant of the God of Beauty.
Helen said that if the God of Beauty found out that my bastard had violated his personal maid, he would definitely expel me from Paphos, or at most my home.
rather than kill.
Therefore, there should be no need to kill me for Helen’s matter, and since Paphos is facing the threat from the followers of the God of Light, it is the right time to employ people...
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuanqing calmed down.
"Well, Cupid has a very naughty character." It cannot be judged by common sense. If it doesn't work, I will fuck him with a large number and see Menia's level first..."
Zhang Yuanqing silently used emotional manipulation to try to influence Menia's emotions, but was shocked to find that Menia's emotions were like an iron lump. No matter how he "grip", it was difficult to deform it.
Damn it, at least the eighth level peak, I may not be able to fuck her even if I play a large number, I’m so rude and disrespectful! Zhang Yuanqing’s mind immediately cleared up, and he showed a humble smile like a concubine:
"Oh, respected goddess Menia, I am going to see Cupid now. You haven't told me where he is yet." Menia said coldly:
"West Garden."
Zhang Yuanqing nodded immediately, and after briefly identifying the direction, headed towards the west.
Herasini, with long dark green hair, followed closely behind him, as if she was marrying and following the chicken, sharing life and death. Unlike her brother Amini, who was born to represent "desire", she was the "love" in lust.
The castle has several gardens planted with flowers, dotted with fruit trees and artificial pools, and the scenery is very nice.
The two walked westward and walked for a while on the stone path before arriving at the garden on the west side of the castle. In the distance, they saw a five or six-year-old child yelling at several slave leaders.
He has fair skin, a round face, big and round blue eyes, and is very cute.
There is a pair of white wings behind him, gently fluttering, floating in the air.
He had a small bow in his left hand, and two arrows in his right hand, a golden arrow and a lead-grey arrow.
"Knophon, I said I would dig out a hundred baskets of black ore within three days, but you have not completed the task." Cupid put his hands on his hips and glared at a slave leader.
The slave knelt on the ground in great fear and defended:
"Master Cupid, the black ore is as hard as the shield in Athena's hand, but our tools and personnel are insufficient. Oh, great Cupid, I am not trying to defend myself, but I am just asking you to give me a few more days."
Cupid landed and hovered above the head of the slave leader, with a very mocking and teasing expression on his cute little face:
"Oh, my slave Kenophon, then please go to sea and ask the followers of the God of Light if they are willing to give us time to prepare weapons."
He floated up again, looked at the soldiers holding spears not far away, and said:
"Send him to sea!"
The slave leader named Kenophon, with despair in his eyes, prayed tremblingly: "No, no, don't do this. The followers of the God of Light have blocked this sea area. Anyone who goes out to sea will be killed, Lord Cupid."
, my wife and children still need me..."
His prayers did not win Cupid's sympathy, and he was carried away by two guards.
Cupid looked at another slave leader and smiled:
"Hals, where are the fifty trebuchets? I heard Elijah say that you only completed twenty."
With the lesson learned just now, the slave named Hals knelt down on the ground tremblingly, not daring to make any excuses, only hoping that Cupid would give him a lighter punishment.
Cupid tilted his head, thought for a while, and suddenly showed a mischievous smile:
"Hals, I heard that you are very loyal to love and deeply in love with your wife..."
He looked at the guard beside him and said, "Bring a ewe here."
The guard hurried away, and after a while, he returned with a white goat with curved horns. Under Hals' frightened gaze, Cupid set a golden arrow on his head and grinned:
"I punish you for betraying your love with your wife and falling in love with a sheep."
The golden short arrow left the string and pierced the hearts of Hals and Goat in turn. The former's body stiffened. His chest was pierced, but there was no wound or bleeding.
But there was a change in the way he looked at the ewe, with desire and love intertwined in his eyes.
He untied his belt eagerly, got naked, and pounced on the ewe. The guard laughed and kicked the goat. The goat was frightened and ran away, and the naked Hals chased after him. One person and one sheep gradually disappeared.
In the field of vision. "He is simply a devil!" Herasini seemed to have been accustomed to Cupid's actions. She took Amini's hand and whispered:
"My dear Amini, you must not make Cupid angry, otherwise, he will make you fall in love with the ewe. The bow and arrow in Cupid's hand are most likely to be high-ranking props, or even rules. ...
…Zhang Yuanqing’s face
gloomy as water:
"I haven't finished my work, right?" Herasini whispered: "Of course!
"Cupid asked you to make two thousand arrows in two days, but only gave you six craftsmen. This is an impossible job. The lightning crystal is very unstable and must be polished carefully, otherwise it will explode.
"So the craftsmen are very careful when polishing the crystals. It is simply impossible to make two thousand arrows in two days."
It’s over, I’m going to become a sheep knight too! Zhang Yuanqing’s heart skipped a beat.
Reminiscent of the bad relationship between Cupid and Amini, it is obvious that the former deliberately made things difficult - giving an impossible task, and then taking the opportunity to punish and avenge private revenge.
The first crisis of the dungeon came... Zhang Yuanqing quickly used his brain to think about how to overcome the difficulty. If he were to fall in love with the ewe, it would be better to let him die, no, let Cupid die.
But Cupid has four siblings from the same mother, so if they start a fight, there is no chance of winning, and the S-level copy will fail immediately.
Therefore, we can't go head-to-head yet, we can only use outsmarts.
The third slave leader whom Cupid punished was a young man with long black hair and a long one-piece coat. He had a handsome appearance and a sunny temperament.
This slave leader had several lovers and was very popular with women, so Cupid shot a leaden arrow at him, causing him to lose the ability to love.
The next two slave leaders, one was punished by giving up his beautiful daughter, and the other was punished by making the other's wife fall in love with someone else.
After dealing with the slave leader, Cupid finally looked at Zhang Yuanqing and Herasini.
"Oh, Amini, the incarnation of justice in Paphos, are you satisfied with my punishment just now?" Herasini looked at Amini nervously.
Zhang Yuanqing took a deep breath, stepped forward, bowed and said:
"Great Lord Cupid, your punishment is fair and just, I have no objection at all."
In fact, before meeting Cupid, Zhang Yuanqing had considered bowing to him to resolve the grievances between the two parties, but when he saw
After learning what Cupid had done, he quietly gave up the idea.
On the one hand, because of Cupid's bad character, being soft may not be effective; on the other hand, he bows to his head and does not give it to evil people.
However, he still chose to submit.
Hearing this, Herasini breathed a sigh of relief.
Cupid put his hands on his hips and laughed, "God of justice in Paphos, despite your courage and integrity, I still like you as you were before."
The guards around him also started laughing.
Immediately, his round and cute little face showed a teasing look again, and his eyes concealed ferocity:
"Although you say this, it cannot cover up the fact that you have failed in your job. Amini, you did not complete the task within the specified time. I will punish you for falling in love with a sheep."
Zhang Yuanqing said quickly:
"Great Lord Cupid, I am willing to punish you. But I think it is unreasonable to do so."
"No, there is no chance." Cupid looked at the guards, motioned them to fetch the ewe, and eagerly drew his bow, aiming at Amini.
Herasini's face was full of despair.
Zhang Yuanqing's thoughts suddenly changed and he said loudly:
"The God of Light is threatening Paphos. We should unite. Lord Cupid, I can guarantee that by this time tomorrow, two thousand arrows will be completed.
"If you punish me for falling in love with the ewe, it will be difficult for me to separate from the ewe, which will be very detrimental to Paphos."
Cupid narrowed his eyes:
"What if you can't finish the work tomorrow?" Zhang Yuanqing said immediately:
"In that case, I will bear all the punishment from Lord Cupid." Cupid tilted his head and thought for a while, then said:
"I'll give you one more day. At this time tomorrow, if you can't hand over two thousand arrows..." He heyed twice, deliberately not saying the punishment, flapped his white wings, and flew back to the towering
bell tower.
Zhang Yuanqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief. When he heard that he had not completed his work, he was manipulating Cupid's spirit. Although this naughty child's willpower was as hard as iron as his sister Menia, there was still a slight impact when there was plenty of time.
of.
In line with the background of the crisis facing Paphos, they successfully persuaded Cupid and barely got through the difficulties. Herasini took Amini and left, whispering:
"Amini, my work has been completed. I will help you make arrows together. I was too tired yesterday and fell asleep before the sun set. Hum, Helen, a bitch, took advantage of this opportunity."
Her pretty face was full of worry, fearing that her lover would fall in love with the ewe.
"Dear Herasini, thank you for your devotion to me." Zhang Yuanqing asked Herasini to take him to the arrow-making workshop.
The two left the castle and came to a group of stone houses that looked like a small town. They walked on the sandy streets and entered a domed building.
There are six craftsmen working hard here, three of them are polishing the bright blue crystal with files, and three of them are whittling the wood with not-too-sharp knives to carve out slender arrows.
The corner was filled with bundles of arrows, the arrows were bright blue crystals containing lightning. "Lord Amini! Lord Herasini!"
Six craftsmen stood up to greet him.
Although Amini is the slave of the God of Beauty, the slave status of the gods is much higher than that of mortals.
Zhang Yuanqing waved his hand to signal them to continue working, then picked up an arrow and held it in his hand. After a few seconds, the item information appeared:
[Name: Thunder Arrow] [Type: Weapon]
[Function: paralysis, burst]
[Introduction: Arrows polished from crystals brewing thunder and lightning will explode when hitting an enemy, and generate a powerful electric current to paralyze the opponent. 】
[Note: Because it is a consumable item, there is no price. 】
The maximum number of arrows is five hundred, and there are fifteen hundred left. It is almost impossible to complete it tomorrow unless I am given enough craftsmen.
I can’t fall out with Cupid now, but he is targeting me again. With Cupid’s character, I feel that the conflict cannot be reconciled. Well, I really don’t want to reconcile with such a bad person!
But now people really have to bow their heads under the eaves. Zhang Yuanqing decided to complete the task well.
He secretly used illusions to blind the six craftsmen and Herasini, and then vomited out three master-level ghosts and a ghost bride.
"Owner!"
"Husband!"
The spiritual servants bowed and saluted one after another.
Zhang Yuanqing ordered: "Make 1,500 arrows." He pointed to the craftsmen who were working hard and said: "Do as you do!"
Four spiritual servants immediately gathered around the craftsmen and watched them making arrows. Zhang Yuanqing took out the little red hat, summoned Princess Yinyao, and issued the same order.
So there was another infernal corpse among the spiritual servants.
The production of arrows is very simple. The key point is to be very careful when polishing the crystal. If you are not careful, the crystal will explode, which is enough to make the craftsman lose his arm.
Princess Yinyao and her four spiritual servants watched for a few minutes before starting to make it.
Zhang Yuanqing shook Little Red Riding Hood again and shook off ten corpses. He and Yin Yao each controlled five and participated in the work.
······
Barren mountains, ancient temples.
Xiahou Aotian looked at the half-decayed palace door and asked slowly: "Who is outside?"
While asking questions, he opened the inventory, quietly took out a mechanical crossbow, and hid it behind his back.
"Young master, I am a nearby herb farmer. I went into the mountains to collect herbs. Suddenly there was a heavy rain. I want to go to the temple to take shelter. I hope you will grant me permission." A woman's soft voice came from outside the door.
It sounds very charming and charming.
Woman... Xiahou Aotian became much less vigilant and said, "Come in."
The temple door creaked open, and a slim young woman, covering her head with her sleeves, trotted into the temple.
Xia Hou Aotian looked at the woman. She was about twenty-eight years old. She was very pretty. Her hair was wet and stuck to her fair and charming face. The rain had wet her dress, which outlined her slim figure.
She was carrying a bamboo basket with freshly picked herbs in it.
The woman glanced at the bonfire and asked timidly:
"Sir, can I warm myself up by the fire?"
Xia Hou Aotian looked at her and suddenly asked:
"You are here to kill me."
The woman's expression froze and she was stunned, as if she didn't expect that he would say such a thing. She was at a loss for a few seconds.
