Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 2229: Eight immortals cross the sea, each making a living (3)
When Ji Shanqing was making his plan, he obviously did not think about whether his plan was suitable for everyone - for example, whether the "hidden tree in the forest" trick could be used by the puppet master.
The Puppet Master himself is difficult to hide, but if there is any way to make him more visible and eye-catching, it is probably to put him in a crowd. Even if he is wearing a disguise, it seems that he can't hide the dark and murderous aura on his body; wherever the puppet master goes, a circle of open space will be cleared. If the goal is to invite Ouxius to his door, there is nothing like it. This is a faster and more effective way.
What's more, the puppeteer will never take the initiative to get into the crowd.
When everyone in the headphones was scattered among the crowd, he was slowly walking forward with the flow of people. But as soon as the puppet master saw the crowds of people in the central square of Black Stone Collection from a distance, he couldn't hold it back any longer. A sharp and distinct trace of disgust and annoyance flashed across half of his face, and he immediately stopped.
Let alone Orcius, even if the King of Heaven is here, I can’t let him be pressed tightly against so many hot human bodies.
Although Ji Shanqing is full of thoughtfulness, glib and very despicable, he is right about one thing: the puppet master really needs a barrier at this moment to confuse and block Oasis's gaze.
Life is optional, but before Gong Daoyi is found, he cannot throw it away just yet.
"Which path is my sister on?" Ji Shanqing asked unconsciously in the headset - as if the world naturally owed him a sister, a relative, that kind of natural and careful tone made people laugh. People's bones feel itchy after hearing this.
Lin Sanjiu is like an AI with no thinking ability and only basic intelligence. He naturally answers all questions: "C."
Cah...
Okay, far enough.
The puppet master looked around and walked step by step into the center of the shop aisle.
He suddenly changed direction, almost causing several slow third-rate evolvers to fail to react and almost bump into him. There was a dense flow of people at this moment, but the puppet master stood motionless in the middle of the aisle, just blocking the path of most people.
Those with keen senses glanced at him and hurried away without saying a word; but there were those who were self-reliant, those with low senses, or those who were confused by his disguise, who could not help but whisper. He cursed - "Get out of the way," a fat man with narrow eyes shouted from behind, "A good dog doesn't block the road!"
In the headset, Lin Sanjiu just complained: "If you don't let him finish what he said, why did you..."
The puppeteer has taken off her earphones, cutting off her uninspired words.
He looked back at the man who asked him to give way, smiled very gracefully, turned slightly to the side, raised one hand and said, "Please."
Looking at him with narrowed eyes, it seemed that he couldn't lose his temper with such a gentle and polite attitude. He snorted, raised his legs and walked past the puppet master.
He paused abruptly a step or two in front of the puppet master.
The puppet master was completely unaware and still stood where he was, blocking the people coming from behind. The man with squinting eyes turned around and came to the puppet master's side with a flat face without any expression.
The puppet master slightly raised his chin toward the distance, narrowed his eyes, and walked over obediently. He stood under the shed of a shop at the edge of the aisle and stood still quietly.
Although it was uncomfortable to act like this now, he was restrained, but soon he put the headphones on again.
When the puppet master turned around and walked towards the other end of the Black Stone Collection, he blended into the crowd like a fish; as if he had been inspired by something, several people who had stopped walking just now People are also like fish following one by one, in twos and threes, near and far, always maintaining a "school of fish" state around the puppet master, blocking him in the middle.
Although people like Lin Sanjiu will not understand it, the rules in the world are like this: the fewer scruples you have and the more means you have, the more roads will be opened for you. The same way to Rome, the puppet master has many roads that Lin Sanjiu will never take or will never take in his life.
Only when Ji Shanqing suddenly shouted in his ears, asking everyone to destroy the headphones, the puppet master paused and slowly looked back.
He was not far from the central square of the Black Stone Collection at this time. In addition, the Black Stone Collection was in a bowl shape, which meant that the central square was the lowest place. He could see it at a glance - the figure standing still on the stage. A huge black shadow, as if it had been waiting for his gaze, also met his eyes.

Qingjiuru really didn’t understand that he had changed his face like this and even shaved off his eyebrows. What else could make that tall man suspicious and follow him ghostly all the time - even though it was actually It only lasted a short ten or twenty seconds, but already the alcohol in Qingjiu Liu's blood had evaporated with cold sweat.
He vaguely felt that it was impossible to continue like this, and he had to find a way now; however, in order to make his face as red as possible in a short period of time, the alcohol he had consumed was actually a bit too much for him. At this moment, my mind is wandering. Even if I feel that there is something worth thinking about, I still can't gather my thoughts.
What was it...that fleeting thought just now...
Another person looked at Qing Jiuru's face and quickly turned his head away - another person was confused by his face-changing technique. In other words, to the soldiers of Oulcyus, he clearly had no disguise...
No, no, not in this direction. What he just thought of was...
Qing Jiuliu glanced back drunkenly, and the tall man was still following closely behind. He did not signal others to follow him——
Qingjiuru shook his head violently, feeling that he finally caught the still clear idea before it slipped away.
There were so many people who became the soldiers of Oucius, and except for the tall man, no one else noticed anything strange about him - what does this mean?
This shows that although these people have become the pawns of Olcius, and it seems that they have temporarily given up part of themselves, when it comes to the goal of "finding people", what Orcius relies on, It is still everyone's own knowledge, experience, vision and thinking ability - the taller man may have been exposed to methods of changing his appearance before, which is why he retains more vigilance and suspicion about Qing Jiu Liu than others.
Is it because these people are not, in essence, the "body stewards" of Oasis?
He cannot turn so many people into his "body stewards"; that is to say, when a person has doubts, the doubts cannot directly "reach heaven to hear" and be passed to Oasis Go in your mind.
So when they think they have found their goal, what happens...
It is a coincidence that when Qing Jiuliu's thoughts reached this point and were about to stop, someone in the crowd not far ahead suddenly raised his voice and called out calmly: "Here ."
For a moment, Qingjiu felt that he had sobered up from the wine.
I don’t know how many people nearby turned their heads at the same time; the rustling figures and footsteps seemed to be attracted by the sound, and they all gathered around. From the tangled shadow that kept getting bigger and darker, a stranger's voice came: "What are you doing?"
Qingjiu was stunned for a long time. Is it because you drank too much? He didn't recognize that voice.
"Why are you grabbing me - let go!" The man shouted in annoyance and fear, and seemed to be very energetic; it was just that his fists were unable to defeat forty hands, and he could hardly hold on in a few breaths. , and was pressed firmly to the ground.
Two people immediately lay on the ground, one on the left and the other on the right. They raised their eyes and carefully looked at the face on the ground at close range - that face was surrounded by countless human legs and was trapped in the shadows. Inside, people can't see anything clearly.
But Qingjiu Liu still stood firm, knowing that he might soon become the next one, and looked at it steadily for a while.
Now his friends must have removed their disguises, and that was clearly the voice of a stranger... The alcohol still made his thinking slow down a bit. After a few seconds, Qingjiuru realized that there was something nearby. It couldn't be someone else, it must be Yu Yuan who still has [The Prince and the Beggar] in his hands.
It would be nice if he could run out after using the item... And what was even more unexpected was that this group of people caught a stand-in with only the face of Yu Yuan, which gave Qingjiu Liu an inspiration.
It seems that the two steps of "capture" and "confirmation" were not completed by Oulius himself. In other words, even if he was discovered by this group of people, he would be far away from actually falling into the hands of Oulius. I still have a short period of time in my hand...
Sometimes, there is no way to succeed without taking some risks on yourself.
Life is a gamble. If you want something, you have to put something on the table accordingly. There is no life in the world where droughts and floods guarantee harvests and there is no danger of harm. If he wants to survive, he must first put his life on the line.
When Qingjiuru staggered and started walking again, the tall man had already arrived beside him at some point, and was looking at his profile from the side with squinting eyes.
Qingjiuru picked up another bottle of wine. Under his gaze, he relaxed his tightened chin, returned his back to its original position, took a deep sip, and let the wine flow wash it away. Every taste bud - This time he drank, not to turn his face red; this may be his last chance to drink ~IndoMTL.com~ He must cherish it.
Even without looking, he knew that the tall man suddenly opened his eyes wide.
His suspicions were finally confirmed. He must be very excited, right?
Qingjiuru put down the bottle and glanced at him - although his eyes still had not recovered, this time, the tall man's eyes suddenly lit up with recognition.
It’s really frustrating to say that; now and then, when someone recognized me in the past, I wouldn’t risk my life next time...
Qingjiuru listened almost dumbly as the tall man raised his voice and shouted calmly to the nearby crowd: "I found it, there is another one over here."
The people nearby were all attracted to Yu Yuan's stand-in, and they were still checking and struggling, and they were in a mess; those evolvers who had not been turned into soldiers would of course ignore him. Therefore, after the tall man shouted, Qingjiure clearly knew that, at least for a few seconds, he was still one-on-one with the tall man.
"That's right,"
He whispered in an angry voice, drawing the tall man's attention back to himself. "You have indeed found it...congratulations."
Before Qing Jiuli could finish his words, the wine bottle in his hand had already been swung sideways towards the man's temple.
Oh my god, I finally finished writing it. It took so long. I apologize to everyone again! On my mother's side, I finally asked my classmate with a shy face to get the medicine... I talked to her for more than two hours, and my words were all broken. Finally, Lafayette nodded and agreed to take the medicine (you have to take medicine when you are sick) After two hours of admonishment, who will believe it?) I think her condition is not too serious now. It seems that she does not need to take an antigen test before deciding whether to go to the hospital. She should take medicine at home to control it.
I really have more to worry about than raising children.
