Ten Days End

The khaki sun of the third day climbed up the dark red sky again. It should have been another stinking and peaceful day, but Ringo and Zhang Chenze in the massage parlor were panicked.

Because Qi Xia was missing.

They searched every corner of the massage parlor, and could even feel Qi Xia's blood being blown cold by the wind on the bed, but they couldn't see him.

In the deepest part of the corridor, the native was still massaging the mummy, which made people feel very uneasy.

"He's gone..." Zhang Chenze looked at the direction outside the door with a sense of loss, "Just like he said, he was tired and gave up."

"No, no way?" Ringo felt a little unbelievable, "Maybe he was too worried about the two of us, so he went to participate in the game by himself..."

"All twenty "Tao" are here." Zhang Chenze picked up the small cloth bag on the bed and waved it at Ringo, "Qi Xia didn't take any "Tao" with him, how can he participate in the game? "

Ling Qin was speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

Where can Qi Xia go?

He is injured now, and he has no "Tao" in his body. What can he do with this seriously injured body?

"Lawyer Zhang, are you willing to participate in the game with me?" Ling Qin calmed down and said slowly.

"The two of us?" Zhang Chenze was slightly stunned, "Are you sure?"

"I am definitely not as strong as Qi Xia, so we try to find some "human-level" games. If we win, we will make a profit, and if we lose, we will not die. If Qi Xia can come back one day, we will have enough "Tao" to accept him again. "

Zhang Chenze thought for a moment and nodded.

Can Qi Xia come back?

There are only seven days left before annihilation. Qi Xia's injuries will only worsen in the next few days and it is impossible to recover.

Can he really come back?

The two packed up their things and walked out of the massage parlor facing the new sun.

...

Qi Xia was staggering on the street with a map drawn in blood in his hand.

He never thought that excessive blood loss would make his hands and feet uncontrollable. He was sweating profusely after walking for more than an hour.

He looked down at the map in his hand and knew that this was the last hope.

"Heaven's Gate".

After three days of exploration, Qi Xia had a general idea of ​​the situation here.

To collect 3,600 "Tao" in these games is no different from ascending to heaven on the spot.

After all, the rewards for each game are too scarce.

Even if the "human-level" game can expand the benefits by gambling with the zodiac, the "earth-level" game does not have the opportunity to gamble with life, and the participants will encounter fatal dangers in the game.

In other words, whether it is a "human-level" or "earth-level" game, if you want to get more benefits, you must risk your life without hesitation.

At present, the most dangerous game Qi Xia has seen is the black bear hunting of the Earth Bull. If it were not for the existence of Qiao Jiajin and Zhang Shan, it would almost be a game of death.

But in such a dangerous situation, each person can only get 20 "Tao" at most.

If Qi Xia really wants to collect "Tao" by participating in the game, then a dangerous game like the Earth Bull needs to participate in 180 consecutive games in the "all-victorious" state.

How many people will die during this period? How many injuries will be suffered?

How sure is it that I can hold on to the last moment?

Qi Xia calculated all night, but couldn't figure out the probability of his survival.

After thinking about it, only "Heaven's Mouth" is the best place.

Zhang Shan once said that they saw someone escape from here, and also found the notes of the "escapee", which is now in the hands of the leader Chu Tianqiu.

Qi Xia followed the map left by Zhang Shan and continued to move forward, and finally arrived at the headquarters of "Tiantangkou" at noon.

This is an abandoned school.

Because the school plaque was dilapidated, Qi Xia couldn't tell whether it was an elementary school or a middle school, and could only see the teaching building and basketball court in front of him.

A man stood outside the school gate, staring at the surroundings vigilantly.

He was wearing a sports vest and had a braid on his head. He looked only fifteen or sixteen years old.

Qi Xia tightened the bandage on his shoulder again and walked towards the young man in front of him.

Seeing someone coming, the boy became more alert and asked, "My dear?"

"My dear?" Qi Xia felt that the man in front of him had a strange accent, but he could only nod, "I am my dear."

"Do you... need help like that?"

The man in front of him not only had a strange accent, but also had strange grammar.

"I..." Qi Xia thought carefully for a while and said, "I want to see Chu Tianqiu."

"To see Brother Chu..." The man frowned slightly, "What's your name?"

"Qi Xia."

The boy thought for a while, nodded to Qi Xia, and said, "Brother, wait a moment."

He walked into the school gate, locked the gate, and then ran quickly towards the teaching building.

In the southernmost classroom on the first floor, a man in a black shirt and glasses was writing something on the blackboard.

Not far from him, a very beautiful woman was sitting in a seat painting her nails.

"Brother Chu! Sister Yun Yao!" The boy with braids called out at the door.

"Come in." Yun Yao said calmly without raising her head.

The boy pushed the door open, looked at the two of them, then bowed and said to the man in the black shirt, "Brother Chu, there is someone outside who wants to see you."

Chu Tianqiu continued to write and asked casually, "What's your name?"

"Qi Xia."

"Qi Xia?" Chu Tianqiu stopped moving his hands and moved two steps to the left.

He was looking for something among the dense text on the blackboard.

Soon, he found the line of text.

"Number: 87, Liar, Bamboo shoots after rain, Death from the sky, Cunning snake."

He drew a horizontal line under the line of text, then lowered his head and thought about something.

"What's wrong?" Yun Yao asked, "Have you heard of this name?"

"This is an extremely powerful person." Chu Tianqiu smiled, "The three zodiac signs responsible for interviewing No. 87 are all people who have half a foot in the "ground". What kind of game do you think they will design?"

Yun Yao was also slightly stunned after hearing this: "Wouldn't that be an interview where everyone died?"

"No." Chu Tianqiu shook his head, "Because of this young man named "Qi Xia", nine people survived this interview."

"Everyone survived, is there such a thing? "Yun Yao raised her bright eyes and looked at Chu Tianqiu, and suddenly thought of something, "'Qi Xia', isn't it the good man that Xiao Yanjing has been talking about these days?"

The braided boy seemed to understand something, nodded and said, "Brother Chu, I'll bring the person in now."

"No..." Chu Tianqiu stretched out his hand to stop the boy, and said, "Jin Yuanxun, can you help me ask him a question."

"Question?"

"Yes." Chu Tianqiu nodded, "Can you help me ask the person named Qi Xia "What day did you come?"

"Brother, but if I ask him a question, will he not understand it?"

"It doesn't matter, you can take this opportunity to practice Chinese." Chu Tianqiu said with a smile.

Although the young man named Jin Yuanxun was a little puzzled, he knew that Chu Tianqiu had always been thoughtful, so he could only nod and leave.

"I don't quite understand. "Yun Yao blew the nail polish dry and then screwed the cap back on," You clearly said that Qi Xia was an "extremely powerful person", but you are not going to recruit him?"

Chu Tianqiu smiled slightly: "Yun Yao, this is exactly "kings do not meet kings"."
