Zhutian: Starting from being forced to bind

Chen Xi went into the water. There was nothing in the water that could threaten him. He was not afraid even of parasites. Not to mention whether those things could penetrate his skin, even if he was infected, did they really think that the lightning in his body was just a decoration?

The lightning power just couldn't be used, not gone. Chen Xi's body was extremely clean, without any toxins or parasites, and those that were had been destroyed by thunder.

After taking a delightful bath and eating a super luxurious lunch box, Chen Xi decided to go to sleep. He exchanged a single-person tent in the system mall and left the night watch to the shadow guard.

The Jinyiwei Shadow Guard does not need to eat, drink, defecate, or sleep. He is a real perpetual motion machine. Chen Xi feels relieved when he is around.

As for Tomie Kawakami, let her continue to sleep in the shadow space. Chen Xi is not in the mood for sex tonight. He just wants to sleep and relieve today's excessive emotionality.

Perhaps he was really tired. Not long after Chen Xi entered the tent, he heard snoring sounds from inside the tent. You know, he hadn't snored for a long time.

Chapter 92: Encounter with the Protagonists

The shadow guard sat on the ground holding the Embroidered Spring Sword, silently guarding Chen Xi in the tent. He was like a statue, without even a breathing sound, and he really didn't need to breathe.

The time soon came to midnight, which was the hunting time for some creatures. From time to time, some bad sounds could be heard from the rainforest late at night, including the miserable cries of small animals and the roars of wild beasts.

Chen Xi was sleeping soundly and knew nothing.

In the moonlight, one could vaguely see something slowly crawling towards this side.

The statue-like shadow guard turned his head, and the next second, he drew his embroidered spring sword and rushed out.

The shadow guard with an attribute value of 50 easily dodged the python's bite and entanglement, and chopped it down heavily with the Embroidered Spring Sword in his hand. The python let out a death hiss and its head fell to the ground.

The shadow guard didn't even look at it, turned around and went back to his previous place to continue being a statue. As long as they didn't disturb Chen Xi's sleep, he didn't care about other animals. If they had malicious intentions, he would kill them.

When the sun rose, Chen Xi opened his eyes from his sleep. He was still in a daze and was confused for a while before he reacted.

Yesterday's clothes were no longer wearable, so he just threw them away. There was plenty of them in the storage space anyway. Chen Xi changed into a new set and then leisurely walked out of the tent.

"Pack up the tent." Chen Xi said casually.

The shadow guard gestured, meaning that he couldn't do it.

Chen Xi: (?_?)

Forget it, I knew I couldn’t count on this guy.

It might not be too much to let Kawakami Tomie clean up the situation and then send them back.

Chen Xi thought about it and decided to just clean it up by himself. Dismantling a single-person tent was not a difficult task.

The shadow guard returned to the shadow space. Chen Xi dismantled the tent and packed it back into a bag, then put it on his back. He took out a can of Coke and took a sip, just as if he was brushing his teeth.

In this damn place, don't worry about personal hygiene. He doesn't want to brush his teeth with that water, and that water may not be as clean as the water in his mouth.

There is no shortage of food and drinks, but there is a lack of very critical daily necessities: toilet paper.

Don't say anything more, just exchange it. Anyway, this thing can be used in any world.

Chen Xi once again exchanged toilet paper (unlimited stock) in the system mall, and from then on he no longer had to worry about returning to the ancient world.

Previously in the world of “The Blade of the Assassin”, soul points were so important that he was reluctant to exchange them. He even used local straw paper to wipe his butt, which felt very bad.

Breakfast is still a super luxurious bento. Anyway, you can customize what you eat. As for drinking water, I drink Coke, which quenches thirst and replenishes sugar, which is pretty good.

Chen Xi exchanged for a waterproof backpack, which contained cigarettes, lighters, unfinished chocolates, toilet paper, and Coca-Cola. He was also worried about meeting other people. He couldn't take things from the storage space in front of others, right?

After eating and drinking his fill and solving his excretion problem, Chen Xi decided to continue on his journey, looking for the Scarlet Naga's footprints. He would not have completed his mission until this thing died.

How to get there specifically?

He still had to rely on the branches, but this time they were not directly inserted into the soil, which pointed him in the direction.

He walked for the whole morning and kicked away all the snakes he encountered along the way. Now that he was no longer afraid, he no longer had to kill them. As for other ferocious beasts, he rarely encountered them.

A large python was encountered while it was eating. Chen Xi did not disturb it but just stood there and watched silently. He had no idea what the prey was that was swallowed. He could only see two legs.

The python continued to swallow, and finally swallowed all of its prey. Then it saw Chen Xi, hissed at him, and prepared to attack.

Chen Xi couldn't help but frown, he felt something was wrong.

According to the habits of pythons, shouldn't they find a place to digest their prey after eating it?

Why are the pythons in this rainforest so aggressive? Even after eating such a large prey, they are still thinking about him?

Psychological expansion caused by excessive body size?

Chen Xi could only make this judgment. Judging from the name of this world, pythons might be at the top of the food chain in this rainforest. Their long-term living habits have made them include all creatures as prey.

The pythons coiled up, arched their bodies, and suddenly exerted force, pouncing towards Chen Xi.

"boom!"

With a gunshot, the python's head was blown off, and its attack turned into a supine fall, with its head and body blown away.

Do you really think Magnum ammunition is a joke?

At the same time, people on a boat turned their heads. They all heard a gunshot coming from the rainforest not far away. Are there people here?

The captain holding the detonator was frightened by the gunshot and pressed the detonator directly. The explosives buried in the pile of coffins exploded, followed by a rain of snakes.

Chen Xi also heard the roar in the distance. He immediately judged it to be an explosion. Was there someone there?

This is great.

Once you find someone, you know where you are.

Chen Xi hurriedly ran towards the direction where the explosion came from. The sound didn't sound close, so he needed to move quickly, lest the other party leave first.

More than ten minutes later, when Chen Xi rushed to the shore, he saw a man stepping on a cobra to death and saving another wretched man in the water.

Hearing the footsteps, Jeff turned around and saw Chen Xi rushing over. He couldn't help but frown. The other person didn't look like a brutal person, but the gun...

Chen Xi was also stunned. The man opposite him seemed a little familiar. Who is this...?

After thinking it over, he finally dug out the other person's identity from his memory. This guy seemed to be a character in "New Police Story", but he forgot his name.

But looking at the other person's current appearance...he is not young anymore.

No wonder he didn’t know about this world. Maybe this film and television work only appeared after he traveled through time.

Jin Baliang kept expressing his gratitude to Jeff and warmly invited him to board the boat. As for Chen Xi, he smiled awkwardly and didn't dare to speak.

Chen Xi is not scary, what is scary is the Python Revolver. Normal people will be relatively afraid of people with guns.

In this way, Chen Xi followed Jin Baliang and Jeff to swim back to the boat. The people on the boat were also wary of their arrival.

The sturdy man Dajiao fell to the ground. Jeff took the initiative to bleed him to save him, but this aroused Gong Lanlan's suspicion. At the same time, Chen Xi also aroused her fear, not for anything else, but because of the gun.

Jeff introduced himself as a risk-taker, but obviously, no one believed him.

When it was Chen Xi's turn, he could no longer use this identity, it would be even more fake, so he simply lied and said he was a bodyguard.

"Bodyguard?" Gong Lanlan's eyes were full of suspicion: "Where is your employer?"

"Dead." Chen Xi said nonchalantly, "The helicopter encountered an air crash. Damn it, the pilot didn't even have a physical examination, and they actually arranged a heart patient."

According to Chen Xi's description, he and his employer were passing through the rainforest in a helicopter. The pilot had a sudden heart attack and died, and the plane crashed. Fortunately, they were not flying high and there were dense trees, so they did not suffer any injuries. But the employer was unlucky and was bitten by a poisonous snake.

"I can't do anything." Chen Xi spread his hands innocently and said, "I don't have the serum, I can't save him. It doesn't matter if he dies. My fees haven't been settled yet."

Whether these people believe it or not, he said so anyway.

Chen Xi also asked back: "Where is this area? We didn't pay attention when we were flying."

Jin Baliang on the side interjected: "It is already in Thailand."

Chen Xi said calmly: "That's great, I'll go with you guys, just take me to a populated area."

At this point, he had already realized that these people were most likely characters in the plot. Even though he didn't know them, when he saw the actor who played Jeff, he knew that things were definitely not that simple.

The most important thing is that what these people did gave him an inexplicable sense of familiarity. Why did it seem so similar to the plot in "Anaconda"?

Jeff didn't say anything. He always felt that the presence of such a person might disrupt his plans, but he was not sure he could kill Chen Xi, so he couldn't act rashly.

Not to mention Chen Xi's pistol, if what the other party said was true, then the skills of a professional bodyguard were not something he could deal with, so he could only take it one step at a time.

As for whether he would suspect that Chen Xi was a colleague, Jeff felt that he had some foresight. This guy was definitely not a poacher, but he was not a good person either.

Don't think that handsome people are necessarily good people.

Chen Xi didn't care about Jeff's sneak observation. He opened his waterproof backpack, took out cigarettes from it, spread them around, and threw chocolates to the two beauties: "These are for you."

Gong Lanlan didn't say anything and didn't eat, but Ali's eyes lit up and she said in a coquettish voice: "Thank you, handsome guy~"

Beautiful women love money and they also love to be pretty. Looking at Chen Xi's looks, Ali, who has always been in the ugly boy group, said that she can do it!

Chen Xi smiled at Ali and Gong Lanlan and said, "Don't be so alert. I have no ill will towards you. If I did, I would have killed you long ago."

Although this sentence was unpleasant to hear, it did somewhat dispel some of their vigilance. Gong Lanlan had to admit that the other party was right. The gun alone was enough to kill them.

"Were you the one who fired the gunshot before?" Gong Lanlan asked.

"Well, I encountered a python and killed it." After Chen Xi finished speaking, he keenly noticed that Jeff's expression twitched.

Jeff was really worried that the python this guy encountered might not be a scarlet naga. If it was killed, he would suffer a great loss.

Chen Xi asked back: "What are you going to do?"

"We are going to perform." Gong Lanlan did not hide anything: "We are from the circus and are going to perform in Thailand."

Chen Xi: (?_?)

Gong Lanlan: “???”

"What's wrong? Why do you look like that?"

"Ah... nothing, it's just..." Chen Xi looked around and said relatively tactfully: "You guys are not the same as the circus I imagined."

"We are just a small circus, not very famous. We don't have what you imagine."

"Then why do you want to perform in Thailand?" Chen Xi asked casually.

The speaker may not have intended it, but the listener took it to heart. Gong Lanlan's heart skipped a beat. The problem that she had never figured out before was now deeply engraved in her heart.

Jin Baliang, who was standing by, was sweating profusely. He hurried over to interrupt and said, "It's late today, and we have encountered so many things. Let's rest early and set off early tomorrow morning."

After Jin Baliang's disruption, Chen Xi and Gong Lanlan stopped chatting. After all, the boat had been in a lot of trouble before, and they still had to clean up.

Chen Xi also helped, and before dark, he had almost everything packed up on the boat. He used the supplies on the boat to make a simple meal as a reward for taking the boat ride.

At this time, Chen Xi had already reached the maximum level 5 cooking skill, and the maximum level reward was "Ingredient Energy Stimulation", which could stimulate the energy of the ingredients to the maximum extent for the eater to absorb.

The taste of the food cooked by LV5's cooking skills was naturally unquestionable. Everyone on the boat was quite surprised that he could achieve this level with such simple ingredients.

Chen Xi smiled and explained: "I am a full-time bodyguard, and food intake is also a very important link. Over time, my cooking skills have been improved."

"Then you are extremely talented." Gong Lanlan gave a rare compliment.

The others didn't say anything; they were busy eating.

Even Jeff looked at Chen Xi in surprise. His perception of this guy changed again. It was hard to describe what the feeling was, but it was just weird.

Chapter 93 Snake Appears

After the meal, Chen Xi didn't have to worry about the dishes, as the two beauties helped to clean up. He leaned against the side of the boat and smoked a cigarette.

Jia Peng, the little brat from the circus, came over and seemed very interested in him.

"Brother Chen, can you tell me about being a bodyguard? It's so cool!" Jia Peng's little eyes sparkled.

"Are you interested in bodyguard matters?"

"Yeah!" Jia Peng nodded repeatedly: "It's all in the movie. The bodyguards are so awesome."

"It's not that exaggerated." Chen Xi said casually: "A real bodyguard's life won't encounter so many things, because the dangers are avoided in advance."

"Ah? Then no one assassinated him?"

“It’s rare.”

"And there was no gunfight?"

"This is true, but it's not an assassination, it's a counter-assassination."

"What do you mean?"

"It means finding a suspicious target and killing him first."

"Ah?" Jia Peng was confused: "What if I made a mistake?"

"It's wrong, so it's wrong." Chen Xi said nonchalantly, "I only work as a bodyguard for powerful people. To them, a few lives are nothing."
