The next day, Wan Jingtian woke up in a burst of fragrant rice.
He was really hungry, so hungry that he couldn't sleep well. So the aromas became his best alarm clock at this time.
He opened his eyes and saw that Zhao Luoguo was still busy in front of the hospital bed, while Gao Baoshan was putting food on the table, mostly vegetables, rice porridge, to supplement the nutrition of the injured.
Both of them looked like they hadn't slept all night. Not only were they tired, but they also looked haggard and sallow, and they looked like a pair of patients.
Wan Jingtian grabbed a bun and stuffed it into his mouth. Before he could chew it, he hurried to see the situation of the ten people.
To his surprise, all ten people were alive. But he knew that this was only a temporary situation. Because Zhao Luoguo told him: Of the three abandoned people, the strongest one will not see the next sunrise.
Zhao Luoguo himself was already a little unsteady, but he still said to Gao Baoshan with concern: "After tossing this night, their situation is almost like this. Life and death are determined. Or you can go and rest first. Watch for a long time, and then work with you."
Wan Jingtian felt strange: Yesterday, Zhao Luoguo said that even though he and Gao Baoshan had been with Gao Baoshan for three years, he had no friends; it was just over one night, how come he has reached the point where he would rather suffer for the sake of each other. Up? When did the relationship between these two men become so good?
But Gao Baoshan didn’t expect that Gao Baoshan said with little anger: "Your two brushes, I don’t know, they laugh at a glance! Who said it doesn’t matter now? The little thief insisted that they live seven people—you Save three, I save three. The seventh person is the most difficult. If I go to rest, how can you keep it?"
Zhao Luoguo was not angry when Gao Baoshan said this, but still cared: "Then you can't..."
"Well, don't say it!" Gao Baoshan sternly interrupted, "I promised that little thief would save seven, it must be seven!"
Zhao Luoguo looked at Wan Jingtian, really unaware that Gao Baoshan, who had never cared about life and death in the cottage, was so steadfast that he had bought Wan Jingtian this time.
Wan Jingtian is also strange: Who on earth Gao Baoshan wants to kill himself is so decisive!
Zhao Luoguo stopped speaking and took a nap against the corner.
Not long after, a hapless thief ran over and asked Gao Baoshan to return to the kitchen to cook. Gao Baoshan's lack of sleep, nervousness, and soaring anger value almost made the little thief his dead soul.
The little thief pissed off.
Gao Baoshan's fierce appearance at that moment was really different, and Wan Jingtian was very scared.
Wan Jingtian asked: "You are the only cook in the cottage. What about the food of the cottage if you strike?"
Gao Baoshan said disdainfully: "They would still starve to death without me? Originally, cooking was something I would do if I wanted to, and would not do if I didn't want to do it!"
Gao Baoshan is self-willed, and he does have self-willed capital.
At this point, it could have been controlled in stages. But there was bad news from Shuitian Village—three more villagers died there.
The 13 people who died while guarding the village before, plus the three who had just died, plus the three who were about to die from injuries here, that's 19 people! The limit of 21 people set by Xueer is only two people away!
That is to say, on the death list of Shuitian Village, at most one person's name can be written; if there are two, Wan Jingtian's punishment task will fail, and he will never be able to obtain spiritual power.
The situation on Shi Rong Mountain was already very difficult for him to control; the situation on the mountain below, he neither understood nor was able to control it.
In his original calculation, the villagers at the foot of the mountain are relatively healthy, which is not a cause for concern; but now it happens that something happened first at the foot of the mountain.
And this, the first day has just passed! I don’t know how many days are until the final completion of the task!
So, it's dead now...
Wan Jingtian was hit hard so quickly because of the newly born confidence.
He was silent for a long time.
Suddenly, he reacted: No, the people left in Shuitian Village were clearly healthier and stronger than those held on Shi Rong Mountain. Now, even one person on Shirong Mountain hasn't died yet. How could Shuitian Village die three people in one day?
Could it be that Yang Shuo did what he did in Shuitian Village?
Wan Jingtian decided to go to Shuitian Village to find out, maybe everything is too late!
After thinking about it, he rushed to the gate of the cottage but was stopped by the bandit guarding the gate.
The two bandits on the left and right crossed their spears in the air. They made a gap and generally sealed the gate of the village. One of them said, "Master Shuizhe, the third brother confessed. During this time, Shi Rongshan will treat you well, so you don’t want to Are you out?"
Wan Jingtian was anxious, but he also knew that he was unable to break through the gate, so he could only pretend to say: "Shi Rongshan is so powerful, now even you two unknown pawns can block the envoy's path at will?"
The gatekeeper was unmoved and resolute: "We also took the order of the third brother and looked at the water so that the adults would not embarrass us."
Wan Jingtian squinted his eyes, and took another step forward, pressing his chest against the barrel of the gatekeeper's spear and said, "What if I have to go out?"
The two little thieves on the left and right held the spears with a little more force, and the little thieves who spoke before said: "Then I forgive us for our loyalty, and I must stop you, Lord Envoy!"
Wan Jingtian wanted to scare them away with his eyes. When he looked sideways, he vaguely saw a figure hiding behind a corner of a house.
After all, Wan Jingtian is a person who is accustomed to being an assassin, and skills like flying over the wall really cannot be directly brought out from "God Generals"; but he has been trained many days and nights to see and listen to the assassin skills of all directions. A keenness.
The gatekeeper in front of him probably also saw the hiding figure, and his eyes moved and changed in an instant. Wan Jingtian judged that it was probably the mysterious figure that was directing the two little janitors.
Wan Jingtian deliberately didn't look back, so that the figure thought he had not been noticed by Wan Jingtian.
In fact, Wan Jingtian had guessed the identity of that person by eight or nine points-at this time the person who dared to stop the "Water Imperial Envoy" on Shirong Mountain could only be Li Zheng.
In the past few days, Wan Jingtian has known that the "Water Imperial Envoy" is a person with outstanding status and spiritual power in the Tianhu Guild.
Therefore, Li Zheng should know that such a ban is just a decoration for the capable Shuiyu messenger. Not only is it useless, but it also only increases the Shuiyu messenger's dissatisfaction with Li Zheng. As smart as Li Zheng, how could he do such a stupid thing?
Unless Li just wanted to test.
After all, from the time he was in prison, Wan Jingtian, the "water imperial messenger", has never shown the ability and courage that he should have as a rudder master and his confidant.
If such a water imperial messenger stayed peacefully, maybe Li Zheng wouldn't be so anxious to make a temptation; but obviously, Wan Jingtian was not peaceful, he had to choose ten prisoners who were about to die. He wanted all his "men" to live and therefore had to go to the only doctor and the only cook on their mountain. Not only did the brothers in the mountains complain, but also made his elder brother Yang Shuo dissatisfied.
Although Wan Jingtian had no force or spiritual power, his mind was not bad. He quickly figured out the above principles and knew that he had to find a way to grow his abilities and stand up. Otherwise, if Li Zheng finds out the details, it will not only be impossible to complete the task; I am afraid that even his life will have to be explained in Shi Rongshan.
But now, standing in front of this gate, he can't enter, nor can he retreat. At least three pairs of eyes are staring at him back and forth, how can he stand up?
