Chapter 10: The Power of the Trap
Early in the morning, Zhan Nianchuan got up and went to the stream to fetch water as usual.
Halfway through the walk, he suddenly found that many errand boys were rushing to the labor building. Zhan Nianchuan didn't understand why, so he stopped a errand boy and asked him, and he was immediately overjoyed.
Today is the day to distribute contribution points, which means that he will have 300 more contribution points.
However, he didn't plan to go and see it now, but continued to fetch water. His task was extremely difficult and his contribution points were high. After completing it, he would definitely be conspicuous. He would go later when the crowd dispersed.
At the same time, Li Hong was looking at a large bronze mirror at the errand boy's place, and he felt bad.
"What's going on? Zhan Nianchuan actually completed the task of fetching water? And got 300 contribution points! This is impossible!" Li Hong instinctively thought that there was something wrong with the system, but he checked the contribution points of other people, including the reward and punishment contribution points, and there was no problem, which made him suspicious.
"Did he really complete the task? No, I have to go and see." Li Hong suddenly got up and walked along the way up the mountain to the top of Lindan Peak.
After waiting for a long time, just when Li Hong's patience was about to run out, Zhan Nianchuan, carrying a bucket of water, gritted his teeth and walked up to the top of the mountain step by step.
"Sure enough, he's here. I knew that this bastard would definitely come today." Zhan Nianchuan muttered in his heart, completely ignoring Li Hong, staggeringly poured two half buckets of water into the water tank, and then pretended not to want to see Li Hong, and walked away directly without any rest.
Li Hong has been watching coldly, thinking in his heart, "Could it be that he has been carrying it without rest? This is impossible. How can someone so strong not need to rest at all?"
He was puzzled and kept pacing on the top of the mountain. Finally, he decided to observe secretly tomorrow. He didn't believe that he couldn't find any problems, and strange things happened not only to Zhan Nianchuan.
"This Li Xiaoqiang didn't die, and he got ten contribution points. This is impossible. There are many beasts in the utility room. Can he survive for a month with just his bones?" Li Hong was very confused and decided to go and see it himself.
......
Zhan Nianchuan was very careful along the way and didn't find anyone following him, which made him feel relieved.
As he walked, Zhan Nianchuan slowed down, frowned, threw away the shoulder pole and bucket, and rushed into the woods.
At the same time, Li Hong, relying on the second level of Qi Condensation, was not afraid of wild beasts and walked through the woods to the utility room.
The utility room in front of him looked the same as before, but there was a little strange feeling, he couldn't tell, and seeing that there was no figure of Li Xiaoqiang at the door of the utility room, he couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"What a bastard boy, you dare to neglect your duties, I will make you lose all your contribution points!"
Li Hong strode forward and cursed loudly, "Damn boy, you..."
With a crash, the ground under his feet suddenly collapsed, and Li Hong fell into a trap two feet deep below.
He was shocked and couldn't use his strength, so he fell straight down. Seeing the rows of sharpened wooden stakes below, he was scared to death.
"Help!"
This guy was also panicked and had a very poor ability to deal with it. He was completely unworthy of his second-level Qi Condensation cultivation. He didn't react until the end. He tried his best to break a wooden stake facing his head with his palm, saving his life.
"Ah~"
A miserable scream sounded, and Li Hong's body had several blood holes, and blood kept flowing out. The whole person was hung on the wooden stake, and the errand bag on his body fell to the bottom of the pit with a snap.
"Wow, haha! Here it comes! Brother Zhan has a really good plan."
Li Xiaoqiang, who was sitting cross-legged in the house, was practicing. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a trap outside the door, which made him ecstatic. This trap was well dug, and wild beasts fell into the trap almost every day.
He hurriedly grabbed a wooden stick and was about to rush out.
A cry for help and a scream sounded one after another, which immediately stopped him.
This voice, this voice is exactly the voice of Li Hong, the bastard!
"Hey, he fell into the trap, wow haha!"
Li Xiaoqiang was happy, this bastard also had this day, listening to Li Hong's wailing outside the door, he felt that the sound was particularly beautiful.
"Li Xiaoqiang, you son of a bitch, hurry up and save me!"
"Li Xiaoqiang, you damn it..."
Li Hong roared at the top of his lungs, he regretted that he didn't release his consciousness and found Li Xiaoqiang early, but in fact, it was useless for him to release his consciousness, the consciousness of the second level of Qi Condensation had no penetrating power at all, he couldn't find the trap anyway.
Listening to Li Hong's weak roar outside the door, Li Xiaoqiang picked up the cold venison soup, drank a big sip, and felt comfortable.
I won't go out!
Li Hong was furious, and cursed loudly, "Li Xiaoqiang, you son of a bitch, you want to kill me? If I die, you won't be buried with me? If I disappear for half a day, the whole service department will be paralyzed, and you can't get away with it!"
"If I'm not dead, you can just wait to die."
Li Xiaoqiang felt a little troubled. After the initial pleasure, the fear gradually grew and spread.
This is the favorite of Deacon Jiang of the Service Department. Now that he was injured by the trap he dug, will he let him go? Or should I let him go and make amends?
No, if I let him go, I will be retaliated, but if I don't let him go, can I get away with it?
Li Xiaoqiang struggled and hesitated in his heart, not knowing what to do. This made him miss Zhan Nianchuan. It would be great if Brother Zhan was here.
Feeling that there was no response, and listening to the sound of his own blood dripping on the ground, Li Hong felt his whole body getting colder and weaker, so he had to put down his body and began to plead:
"Xiaoqiang, are you there?"
"Help me, I'll change your task. I'll let you take care of the medicine garden."
Without any response, Li Hong gritted his teeth and offered a higher price.
"Xiaoqiang, as long as you let me down, I will give you one thousand contribution points!"
"Two thousand points!"
There was no response, and Li Hong was going crazy. In order to live, he began to beg humblely.
"Xiaoqiang, I was wrong. I shouldn't have sent you here. Please let me go. Spare my life. As long as you let me go, I will agree to whatever you want."
...
Li Xiaoqiang was still hesitating and struggling. After all, he was still a child. He didn't know how to deal with it at the moment. He felt that it was difficult to save or not, and it was very dangerous.
Li Hong panicked, he really panicked. Anyone who listened to his own blood dripping for more than half an hour would panic, and his voice was filled with tears.
"Xiaoqiang, I beg you..."
Hearing Li Hong's plea, Li Xiaoqiang gritted his teeth, stood up, walked out of the door, and saw the miserable bloody man, Li Hong, hanging on a wooden stake.
"Xiaoqiang, please help me, I really can't hold it anymore, help me..." Li Hong was a little confused now and begged desperately.
With a look of reluctance, Li Xiaoqiang made a request that he had been thinking about for a long time:
"You fell off the cliff by yourself today. It has nothing to do with Brother Zhan and me. No retaliation is allowed."
"It was me who fell off the cliff." After hearing Li Xiaoqiang's request, Li Hong let out a sigh of relief and steeled himself to agree.
"In addition, Brother Zhan and I choose the tasks of the Auxiliary Department, and you are not allowed to interfere."
"No problem." Li Hong was heartbroken, lowering his head and trying to hide the fierce light in his eyes, "Let me go, let me go, I will bring someone here right away to bury you alive!"
At this moment, he vaguely felt another person appear on the edge of the pit, which cheered him up. Could it be that someone from the Miscellaneous Department came to him?
Li Hong raised his eyes with difficulty, but before he could see clearly who was coming, Li Xiaoqiang's voice of surprise came to his ears.
"Brother Zhan!"
