Zhutian: Starting from being forced to bind

"Wait, wait!" Ali was a little panicked: "I can't do it alone, let's do it together, you let us both go, and we will serve you together."

"Together?" Chen Xi waved his hand and refused: "I only have Ding Ding, you should take turns. If you come together, I can't do anything."

Ali: “…”

Gong Lanlan: “…”

Seeing that her plan didn't work, Ali decided to give it a try. At worst, she could do it herself. She didn't believe that she couldn't steal the gun!

Chen Xi used a dagger to cut Ali's rope and took her to a place where she could not see anyone. Ali leaned forward with a soft body and her eyes were almost tearing. Just as she was about to go down and steal the gun...

Chen Xi pulled her up with his hand.

Ali: “???”

"Turn around and face away from me."

Ali: “!!!”

By this time, she had lost the initiative and was pushed around, bending down and holding onto the tree trunk.

wrong!

It shouldn't be like this!

Ali struggled desperately. Her purpose was to steal the gun, not to sacrifice herself!

He released his hand holding Ali, and she stood up straight and ran two quick steps before stopping and turning around. What she saw was Chen Xi's playful smile.

At this moment, Ali understood that her plan had already been seen through by the other party, and they were playing a trick on her.

Ali grinned and sat on the ground with a bitter smile. She had just recovered from a serious illness and had no strength in her body. The ups and downs of what happened just now made her physically and mentally exhausted. She also gave up: "Tell me, what do you want?"

"It's not what I want to do. It's you. Weren't you the one who proposed the deal?"

"At this point, let's not be so pretentious. Just tell us what you want, and then you will help us."

"I already said that."

"I can give it to you, but Lanlan can't."

"why?"

"She is still a virgin."

"Huh?" Chen Xi looked at Gong Lanlan not far away with a look of slight disdain.

Ali: “???”

Did you see it wrong?

Is there anyone who still dislikes original products these days?

Before the two men could agree on the terms of the deal, the python arrived.

A huge python swam towards Da Jiao and Jia Peng, scaring the two men so much that they struggled desperately. Zhang Tianshi, who was waiting for them, was trembling all over. He chanted scriptures and begged the two men not to blame him, saying that he was forced to do so.

Another python slowly dropped from the sky. Zhang Tianshi was completely unaware and was still staring at the trap. It was not until he was bitten by the python that he let out a heart-wrenching cry.

"Ah la la~" Chen Xi smiled and looked towards Zhang Tianshi: "Another one is dead."

Ali and Gong Lanlan's hearts were completely chilled. They finally realized the difference between themselves and the other person. This guy really didn't take human life seriously.

Zhang Tianshi was taken away, the trap was triggered one step ahead of time, and the python was not caught. Jeff cursed his bad luck inwardly and could only use the lasso at this time.

Over there, Jeff and the python started a tug of war. He was not strong enough and could only rely on the trees to hold the python back.

On Chen Xi's side, the python that had eaten Zhang Tianshi before came towards them in a desperate state.

When Chen Xi looked up at the python, Ali seized the opportunity, pulled out the dagger, and ran towards Gong Lanlan. She wanted to save her.

Ali cut the rope and released Gong Lanlan. The two had weapons in their hands and were wondering if they could fight. Then they saw the python being kicked away by Chen Xi.

Such a big python with such a fast attack speed was just kicked away by Chen Xi with a whip kick, along with hundreds of pounds of its weight.

Ali: “…”

Gong Lanlan: “…”

The two men, who were holding daggers and still thinking of fighting, fell completely silent.

The python that was kicked away rushed forward again unwillingly, and its target changed to the two women. This time Chen Xi opened fire.

The python's head exploded as it approached the two women, and blood spurted all over them. Ali and Gong Lanlan were both a little scared.

On the other side, the python that was fighting with Jeff also broke free from the rope. Frightened by the gunshot, it quickly fled from here. Jeff was busy for a while, but he didn't catch anything.

Chen Xi didn't bother to care about Jeff's affairs. He didn't care whether the python was caught or not. He just wanted the Scarlet Naga to appear. He waved at Ali and said, "Give me back the dagger."

Ali obediently handed the dagger over upside down. Having witnessed the kick with her own eyes, she didn't think she could beat this guy with a dagger, so she might as well just be obedient.

Chen Xi put the dagger back into his waist. He changed the bullet when he had nothing to do. Then he looked to the other side and saw Jeff walking towards him with a gloomy face.

Jeff no longer cared about Gong Lanlan and Ali. He had to hurry to rearrange the trap. As for bait, Dajiao and Jia Peng were enough.

It’s not that Gong Lanlan and Ali didn’t want to save people, but they had no choice. Jeff also had a gun, and even if he didn’t, it was not something that two weak women like them could deal with. They could only stand there and watch sadly.

They did not ask Chen Xi for help because they knew it was useless. This guy was cold-hearted. Not to mention that there was no deal, even if there was a deal, he would not care about Da Jiao and Jia Peng. The most he would do was not let them be used as bait.

Jeff came over, glanced at Chen Xi and the others, said nothing, and silently cut off the python's head and scattered the python's blood around the trap. During this time, Gong Lanlan was still thinking of taking the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, but Chen Xi stopped her.

Gong Lanlan glared at him, but Chen Xi had something to say: "I'm doing this for your own good. You know you can't beat Jeff."

"Then I can steal his gun too!"

"Oh, can you shoot?" Chen Xi asked back, "Do you know if the gun is loaded? Do you know how to open the safety?"

Gong Lanlan: “…”

Well, she thought it was simple, thinking that she could use it by just snatching the gun.

"Just stay here obediently. At least you are standing with me and you are safe."

Even though she was unwilling, she admitted in her heart that it was safest to be around this bastard.

Perhaps the previous gunshots alarmed the surrounding creatures. After setting the trap this time, no python came, so they needed to wait.

Jeff took action himself, hid behind a tree holding the rope, and waited for the python to take the bait.

Jia Peng in the trap had no more energy to curse and sat there back to back with Da Jiao in despair. He did not call for help. Although he was young, he could see clearly that Sister Lan had no real freedom at all.

Sister Lan and Ali, who were untied, were still controlled by Chen Xi. With that guy around, they had no chance to rescue people.

Jeff was about to lose his patience as time passed. Suddenly, the sounds of birds chirping and fluttering their wings were heard in the forest. Jeff's face twitched with excitement again.

Very good!

Only the Crimson Naga could cause such a stir.

Gradually, pythons appeared around and moved towards the trap little by little. Now Jeff no longer cared about these pythons. He was waiting for the Scarlet Naga to arrive.

There was another commotion in the jungle. The surrounding pythons retreated one after another and left. Only a fearless foodie still went towards the trap. The moment it pounced on the bait, it was bitten by a bigger python.

The other party's appearance was so sudden that even Chen Xi hadn't noticed it before. At that moment, he only saw the corner of the giant python's eyes, which were red.

Finally found it, Scarlet Naga!

The Scarlet Naga disappeared again dragging the python. Chen Xi quickly chased after it, only to see a big hole. He suddenly realized that it was no wonder he hadn't noticed it before. The other party came from underground.

This time he got away, who knows if he will meet him next time. Thinking of this, Chen Xi couldn't help but get a little anxious. He shouted in Jeff's direction: "That guy went underground!"

"Wait, it will come out again!" Jeff also shouted in response.

Sure enough, a few minutes later, the Scarlet Naga appeared again and went straight to the bait, entangled Da Jiao and Jia Peng, and Jeff kept twitching with excitement.

Chen Xi was also very happy. As long as he killed the snake, he would have completed his mission. He didn't want to stay in this damn place for even another day.

Jeff activated the trap, and the rising net startled the Scarlet Naga. It struggled desperately, broke through the rope net in just a few seconds, and swam around frantically.

Chen Xi couldn't find a suitable opportunity to shoot, and could only curse Jeff inwardly.

Jeff kept pulling the rope desperately and was dragged around by the python until he came across a gap between the trees. He was stuck in it and the python ran away.

Chen Xi rushed over, and both he and Jeff looked unhappy.

On the other side, Gong Lanlan and Ali took the opportunity to rescue Dajiao and Jia Peng. No one cared about them at this time.

The Scarlet Naga appeared again. It crawled out from the ground and pounced directly at Chen Xi. The distance between them was extremely short.

Hey!

Chen Xi cursed inwardly and quickly dodged to the side. The huge snake head brushed past his body. He could tell from this attack that this snake was faster than the previous python.

"Bang! Bang!"

Two shots hit the snake, and the Scarlet Naga let out a miserable cry. Jeff, who was stuck, also roared: "Are you crazy?!"

"Shut up!" Chen Xi retorted angrily. Now that the Scarlet Naga had appeared, this guy was useless.

The Scarlet Naga that was wounded by the gun began to run around at an extremely fast speed. Chen Xi was not sure he could hit the opponent's head, mainly because there were too many obstacles.

The Scarlet Naga did not run away either, it wanted revenge.

The man and the snake were in a stalemate. The snake was crawling and Chen Xi was running.

The underground cave is the Scarlet Naga's shortcut. It always jumps out inadvertently and bites Chen Xi, catching him off guard.

After several times, Chen Xi gradually found the pattern. At this time, he had run out of bullets, but unfortunately he did not hit the head. He changed the bullets while running.

On the other side, Jeff finally broke free from the gap. He was busy looking for a rope, preparing to capture the Scarlet Naga alive, but he was blocked by it unexpectedly.

The scarlet Naga jumped out from the ground and pounced on Jeff, wrapping him up directly. Chen Xi didn't think about saving people, but this kind of good opportunity was rare, so he shot decisively.

Six shots in a row, all hit the Scarlet Naga's head. Blood splashed all over Jeff's face. He felt no joy at being rescued by chance, and looked at the corpse on the ground in despair.

Chen Xi finally breathed a sigh of relief at this time. While changing the bullets, he walked towards the body of the Scarlet Naga and opened the system at the same time. Then he was stunned.

Main quest: Kill the Scarlet Naga (unfinished).

Chen Xi blinked at the screen, then looked at the snake's body not far away. Its entire head was rotten. It was obvious that it was dead.

Jeff finally came back to his senses and yelled at Chen Xi: "Do you know what you did?!"

Chen Xi ignored him and just looked at the snake. His expression gradually became ugly. If the system did not lie to him, then there was only one possibility. The one he killed was not the legendary Scarlet Naga at all!

Chapter 97 Analysis

As night fell, no one sitting by the campfire was very happy. It was not that the circus quartet did not want to run away, but it was already dark, and if they fled rashly, it might be even more dangerous, so they could only accept their fate and stay.

The four of them gathered together, with Chen Xi and Jeff sitting on the other side of the fire. The latter had calmed down by then.

Chen Xi smoked a cigarette and said in a deep voice: "That snake is not a scarlet naga."

"Impossible!" Jeff said with certainty: "That is the Scarlet Naga. The red scales at the corners of its eyes are enough to prove it."

"Who said only one snake has red scales?"

"That's what the legend says."

"Then is there a possibility that the legend is wrong, and this is the only one humans have seen?"

"What do you mean?"

"Since the Scarlet Naga is a legendary snake, it shouldn't be so weak. Do you think it's big? But in fact, it's just a little bigger than other pythons. Why is it considered a legendary snake?"

Jeff also fell silent. Indeed, he hadn't noticed it before, but now it seems that the dead snake is indeed not worthy of the word legend.

"So, the real Scarlet Naga is still alive, and might be a bigger being than that python."

"Do you have any evidence?" Jeff's dead heart moved again.

"intuition."

"Okay, I'll trust you this time, but if you shoot again this time, I will kill you without hesitation!"

"Just understand, I was saving you. If I hadn't shot you, you would have died a long time ago."

After Chen Xi said this, Jeff was speechless and could only sit there sulking.

The four people on the opposite side felt their hearts sink again. Is it not over yet?

If there are more terrifying pythons, do we still need them as bait?

Fortunately, Chen Xi spoke at this time: "I discovered something. The snake that was killed before still holds a grudge."

"What do you mean?" Jeff didn't react for a moment.
