Chapter 288 - Volume 3 Chapter 98 The blackhearted Baozi
She wanted to come over and see what happened to Fu Jingshen, but nothing happened. Thinking that the atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous, she suddenly felt a little panicked. Fu Jingshen just looked at her quietly, with despair, dependence, and some trust exactly the same as Er Dai.
It was as if Shao Qing wanted his head, but he would not say anything and would just stick his head out.
Shao Qing was very flustered. She gritted her teeth and said forcefully: “I really need to go, get a good rest and don’t think too much.”
Fu Jingshen still did not speak, he watched quietly as Shao Qing left. Shao Qing ran away like a runaway. She didn’t know why but she didn’t dare to look at Fu Jingshen. She was very flustered.
After running away, she squatted on the roof for a long time, feeling a little tired inexplicably. There were so many things that followed, from the big to the small, everything made her exhausted.
She emptied her mind and didn’t want to think about those things. She squatted on the rooftop and smoked cigarettes all night. When she got up the next day, she was surrounded by cigarette butts.
There was obvious exhaustion on her face. When she walked to the door, it was all gone. Yan Qiyue leaned against the door and smiled, “How was last night?”
“It’s okay.” Shao Qing smiled. She smiled and didn’t say anything, but Yan Qiyue leaned over, sniffed, frowned, then said, “How much did you smoke? Why is the smell of smoke so heavy on your body? You didn’t squat at the door to smoke all night did you?”
Shao Qing didn’t speak and Yan Qiyue pulled her aside: “Don’t forget, there is a whole Jiangcheng behind you, pay attention to your body.”
Shao Qing nodded and rubbed her head: “Don’t worry, I know.”
Then she went to organize the manpower. The next day she still had to fight, at least until no one dared to stand up on the other side. At that time it definitely won’t be like what the opponents said in which the losers go back to where they come from. For example, if Jiangcheng lost, would they surrender?
No and the other party was the same.
At that time, they will only take advantage of this excellent opportunity to beat the dog drowning in the water, this was the default for both parties.
But when fighting against each other, killing one extra master would decrease their own casualties. So fighting against each other was also very important.
When the time came, Shao Qing led the people out. A row had been arranged outside. When Shao Qing came over, Mr. Qiu raised his head, his eyes gloomy and unclear.
“We already fought the entire day yesterday, how about changing the way of playing today?” Mr. Qiu’s hoarse voice was like a poisonous snake crawling over the wet ground, it was really creepy.
“What kind of game do you want to change it to?” Shao Qing said coldly.
Mr. Qiu laughed, then said: “How about we draw lots? Ten people each side, one draw for each person. The draw would represent their opponent. I will also participate, you don’t mind, do you City Lord Shao?”
Shao Qing supported her chin and said lazily: “If it’s just like that, then it’d be too boring?”
Mr. Qiu continued: “Of course it’s more than that. Besides me, I have three rank six, three rank sevens, and three rank eights on my side...”
Shao Qing’s eyes were cold. If it was like this, then it would be bad luck. Isn’t a rank 6 drawing a rank 8 just a dead end?
Mr. Qiu continued: “Of course, if City Lord Shao doesn’t want to play like this, it’s okay. Let’s just give up and try another life and death match. How about that?”
Shao Qing rubbed her chin. Mr. Qiu’s move was really vicious. At least anyone with a discerning eye could see it. The chance of Jiangcheng winning was relatively small. Even if they win, there will be big losses.
Shao Qing certainly couldn’t be like Mr. Qiu treating the life under her hand as garbage. She frowned: “Okay, let’s do it. Since you’re playing...then I will too. ”
Shao Qing smiled and stood up: “Now that we changed the play, prepare the sticks for the draw. I’m going to play well with Mr. Qiu.”
The sticks were prepared by Shao Qing’s side. After all inspections to determine that there was no foul play were completed, the first draw began.
Shao Qing’s side had:
Rank 8: Gu Panpan, Yin Ye, Xiao Baozi.
Yes, Xiao Baozi was also fighting, this is what he requested. After all, there were only four rank eights in Jiangcheng. If Shao Qing was removed and Xiao Baozi did not make it, there would be one less person.
Shao Qing was unwilling, but Xiao Baozi was very determined. He said, these brothers, sisters, uncles and aunts have protected him for a long time. Now it was his turn to protect them.
Shao Qing spoke to Xiao Baozi: “If you fight, mother can’t protect you. By that time, life and death will be up to you. Do you really want to go up?”
Xiao Baozi nodded, “Ma Ma, I am already older, I’m not a child anymore. I understand all these principles. Don’t worry.”
Shao Qing felt her eyes moisten. She touched Xiao Baozi’s head, “Okay, my Shao Zi is already a man, I won’t stop you.”
The seventh-rank candidates were: Yan Hanqing, Mulin, and Gu Chuan.
The last were the sixth rank. The three people at the sixth rank were Qin Zixi, Zhu Mochen, and Shao Tong.
Shao Tong was only at rank 6, but Mulin said that unless she fights for her life, she would only win against Shao Tong 50% of the time. Her defensive ability was too strong. Even if it was against an eighth rank, she can last a short time. This time was enough for Shao Qing to admit defeat and get her back.
Not to mention Qin Zixi, his explosive power may be the strongest among these people. With so many high-level mutant beasts, the eighth-rank superhumans can’t hurt him.
Lastly, Zhu Mochen, as the leader of one of the four major mercenary groups in Jing Du, must have a lot of methods in his hand. These three people were the strongest among all the rank 6 superhumans in Jiangcheng.
Sending them out, she felt assured.
After deciding on the candidates, each person’s code was written on each lottery, including Shao Qing’s. Then the lottery was placed in the lottery tube and placed on the front table.
“How should we decide who is the first to draw?” Mr. Qiu’s laugh was hard to listen to. It was like sand rubbing glass, piercing to the ear.
He pointed at Xiao Baozi and said, “I think this kid is the youngest. Why don’t we let him draw the lot first?”
Shao Qing sneered: “If we want to judge by age, will your side even make a move? Let’s be fair, let’s play rock paper scissors.”
These people haven’t used rock paper scissors to decide something for a long time, so they were a little confused when they heard it.
Mr. Qiu reacted first and stepped forward: “Okay, the one who wins, draws a lot from his own lottery tube as the first to come out.”
Shao Qing also walked over. The two stretched out their hands then they really played rock paper scissors. When the slender white fingers were placed beside the fingers covered with scars and pustules, it was a sharp contrast.
The final winner was Shao Qing.
Shao Qing walked to the front of her own lottery, randomly drew one, then looked down. It was written with the word Tong. This was the lottery representing Shao Tong.
Her brows couldn’t help but wrinkle. This was really not a good sign. After all, Shao Tong was only at rank six. Mr. Qiu over there began to say cold words: “Oh, she is such a cute little sister, rank six...”
Shao Tong blinked and walked out. She walked to the opposite side and randomly drew a lottery. As soon as she saw the lottery, a hideous-looking man on the opposite team walked out.
He grinned and cracked his fist. Yesterday, the people on their side were crushed and beaten. It was really aggrieving. Today, he actually met a little girl who was only rank six. It was a godsend.
He was a rank 7 superhuman.
Shao Tong was not afraid at all. She stretched out her hand and held the pendant on her chest. The man stretched out his hand, then his hands quickly turned into two knives, looking like a praying mantis.
Zhu Mochen immediately said: “His ability is also related to metal. He should be able to metalize a certain part of his body. If there are other abilities, I’m not sure.”
Shao Qing nodded, the worry in her heart lightened. She should believe in Shao Tong, after all, Shao Tong is not weak.
“Were you scared silly?” The man walked towards Shao Tong, but Shao Tong didn’t move. The man smiled suddenly. He raised his hand knife and came towards Shao Tong, only to find that he had hit a transparent barrier.
“It turned out to be a person with a mental ability.” The man slashed against Shao Tong’s defensive shield with a knife. He thought that the shield would shatter at once, but he didn’t expect that the defensive shield stood still and was very strong.
Shao Tong’s beautiful eyes were aimed at the man. The man’s second hit also didn’t cut it apart. He stared at Shao Tong’s eyes blankly, his face gradually showing a look of intoxication.
After a while, he began to dance on the spot with a smirk. While jumping, he took off his clothes. First, he took off his shirt, revealing his chest full of hair, then he began to take off his pants, revealing his darkened thighs.
When it was time to take off the next item, Shao Tong silently stretched out her hand, a barrier formed by mental power appeared in front of the man sending him flying. He was really ugly, blinding their eyes...
The man fell into the crowd and sobered up. He realized that he was holding a pair of trousers in his left hand and pulling the bottom of his trousers down with his right hand. It had fallen to his thigh.
At that time, he screamed, like an assaulted maiden. There was a lot of laughter around him, not only on Shao Qing’s side, but also their own people. They just didn’t laugh in an outrageous manner, they all laughed secretly.
But a lot of people were laughing secretly, so the voices became louder. It was no different from openly laughing.
The man was ashamed to death. If there was a hole on the ground, he would definitely jump in directly. Even Shao Qing can’t help but wipe a sweat. Her Tongtong, who corrupted her... teaching her this trick.
The man was extremely embarrassed and angry, naturally he didn’t have the face to go on stage again, so he became the only one who came out of the ring intact in the past two days.
Shao Tong won the first game, giving them a good start. She happily jumped off the ring and went to find Shao Qing. Shao Qing touched her head, wondering whether to praise or laugh.
Next was Shao Qing and Mr. Qiu’s time to play rock paper scissors. This time, Mr. Qiu won. After Mr. Qiu drew a lottery, an acquaintance came forward.
Mu Lianchun...
Mu Lianchun’s expression remained unchanged, then he went to draw. He drew Gu Panpan. Gu Panpan’s strength, everyone can see the brutality of it.
So, if Gu Panpan can’t beat him, Mr. Qiu will definitely feel that something is wrong, but if she beats him cruelly...After all, Mu Lianchun was also one of their own, they can’t beat their people to death.
After Mu Lianchun stood on the ring, he made a mouth shape, telling Gu Panpan not to hold back. Gu Panpan gritted her teeth, and rushed forward. Both of them were physically tough, power-type superhumans or zombies, when they fought, there was really nothing tricky, just a battle of fists.
Although Mu Lianchun was at the eighth rank, he was still a little worse than Gu Panpan. Without Gu Panpan holding back, he could only last a dozen rounds before he gradually fell into a disadvantage.
The most worrying thing now was Gu Panpan. She must guarantee that she allows Mu Lianchun to get off the ring alive without revealing any flaws.
After all, both sides had the same purpose, that is, to kill a certain someone. If Gu Panpan has the opportunity but does not kill him, Mr. Qiu will definitely notice something wrong.
As a spy, Mu Lianchun would definitely have no way of survival once discovered.
Gu Panpan had a terrible headache, but she still had to go all out. Each of her punches fell on Mu Lianchun’s body honestly, so Mu Lianchun was beaten back continuously.
Gu Panpan’s eyes were slightly apologetic. In mid-air, she grabbed Mu Lianchun. After throwing him to the ground, she gave him an elbow, then grabbed Mu Lianchun’s legs, and spun him as if she was going to do it again.
At this time, Mu Lianchun kicked out hard and Gu Panpan naturally let go, watching Mu Lianchun fall out of the ring and fall heavily to the ground.
This play should be very realistic, right?
Gu Panpan breathed a sigh of relief, then heard Mr. Qiu’s negative remark: “Continue.”
Gu Panpan’s breath was held in her throat. She was originally a straight-laced person, not good at acting. The play was finally over, but now Mr. Qiu wants her to do it again?
If possible, Gu Panpan would want to go up and tear Mr. Qiu alive. She watched Mu Lianchun rise from the ground, shaky, walking to the ring with difficulty. She felt a little distressed.
Look at this pitiful appearance, the most important thing is that this is his own person...
Gu Panpan had to put up with the unbearableness in her heart, she went up to grab Mu Lianchun, and beat him so painfully that everyone else could hear the sound of bones breaking from Mu Lianchun’s body.
It sounded very miserable. Gu Panpan’s moves were a little soft. Mu Lianchun turned over with difficulty, an elbow hit which temporarily forced Gu Panpan back.
At this time, he was facing Gu Panpan and Shao Qing. Mr. Qiu couldn’t see it. Then he cast a wink at Gu Panpan, Gu Panpan understood it in an instant, the two reached a tacit understanding at this instant.
Mu Lianchun exhausted all of his strength and rushed towards Gu Panpan, looking like he was about to fight her to the death. Gu Panpan also punched him violently. The moment the two people touched, Mu Lianchun folded his hands in front of him. Hearing a click, the bones in his hands broke and he flew out for the second time.
This time, he didn’t even have the strength to get up.
Shao Qing stood up decisively: “Even if your person draws lots, what’s the use? I advise you to admit defeat.”
Mr. Qiu did not call Mu Lianchun to come on stage any more, he laughed hoarsely. Then he said, “The good show is yet to come, so what’s the hurry?”
Shao Qing was not in a hurry. She knew very well that today she and Mr. Qiu must have a battle. This battle will determine many things, such as the outcome of this arena and the outcome of this war.
“In that case, let’s continue.” Shao Qing said lightly.
The third game was very unlucky. It was Mr. Qiu’s person who drew lots. A woman with a crooked waist came out. She was obviously not old, but her back was very damaged, as if she was carrying a millstone on her back.
As soon as she drew, she won the lottery belonging to Xiao Baozi.
Shao Qing squeezed the armrest of the chair in an instant. Xiao Baozi was already at the eighth rank, but in Shao Qing’s eyes, he was still the small child who held her hand and needed to be protected.
At that moment, Shao Qing really had the impulse to stand up, yell, and stop the fighting, but she couldn’t. Even for the people behind her, she couldn’t.
Xiao Baozi waved at Shao Qing. He smiled and looked soft and cute. He looks so easy to bully, many people here in Jiangcheng felt their heart beat rise.
They all knew Xiao Baozi was Shao Qing’s son. During this time, he took a group of friends and ran around to give them water, food, and medicine.
Many people in Jiangcheng liked Xiao Baozi very much. Such a cute child, and he is well-behaved, who would not like him?
But this child was about to go to the battlefield for Jiangcheng.
Many people came forward and said to Shao Qing that they should forfeit this match. In the worst case, they can fight them to the end. The people in Jiangcheng were not afraid and didn’t need a child to fight for them.
Hasn’t Jiang Cheng’s rules always been like this? The elderly, the children, the sick, and the disabled will all be directly protected and supported by Jiangcheng. They should not make him take on more things just because of his status.
But the person who didn’t want Xiao Baozi to risk it the most was Shao Qing. She clutched the armrest of the chair tightly. The armrest was almost crushed by her. It was her son who stood in the ring. After all, he has been born for only around two years.
She wasn’t willing...
Xiao Baozi climbed up to the ring happily, panting and moving his short legs, he ran to the center of the ring. With a pair of heterochromatic pupils, he looked at the humpback woman.
He asked seriously: “Grandma, do you need to remove the bag from your back first, then shall we fight? That bag looks so heavy, if you fight with me with your bag on your back, won’t I have an advantage?”
Many people began to snicker, the hunchback woman raised her head. Under her messy hair, cloudy and cold eyes were hidden. After a long time, she said, “No.”
Xiao Baozi bit his finger, he felt very entangled. He stepped forward: “Then, grandma, let’s shake hands. I read it in books. You must shake hands before fighting to show friendship.”
Someone who knew what Xiao Baozi could do couldn’t help but want to laugh. Xiao Baozi’s filling must be black. His ability is swallowing. If her hand was really gripped, how can he be willing to let her go after?
The worries in Mulin’s heart were washed away a bit. She whispered: “Ah Qing, your son is like you, black.”
The hunched old woman looked at Xiao Baozi’s chubby hand and slowly took her cane. Stretching out, the end of the cane was very sharp, there was a cold light on it.
Xiao Baozi hurriedly stepped back and opened his eyes wide: “Grandma, you are so disrespectful!”
The hunchback woman was not a person who likes to wrangle. She used one end of a cane to aim at Xiao Baozi. Inside, countless black dots could be immediately seen. After these dots fell on the ground, they began to move.
They were not threads, but thread-like bugs. These bugs were very thin, but they continued to drill out from one end of the cane. When the number became larger, they piled up together. Constantly squirming, it made one’s scalp numb and nauseous.
Xiao Baozi bit his fingers and kept moving. He hated bugs the most... he just wanted to stay away from these bugs, the farther the better.
The humpbacked woman kept releasing bugs, soon half of the ring was occupied by bugs. After she tapped the ground with her crutch, all the bugs jumped up and shot towards Xiao Baozi.
Shao Qing’s face changed at that time, she leaped up suddenly and rushed to the ring.
