In the outskirts, the moon and stars are sparse.
It was still a familiar room, with a fat man sitting on the dark balcony. He brought a desk lamp and placed it on the edge of the balcony, emitting an atmospheric warm yellow light.
The man was reading a book in his hand, swaying on a wicker chair.
Not long after, the iron door leading to the balcony was opened.
A slim and sexy woman walked up barefoot.
The skin on the long legs has an indescribable and graceful luster under the moonlight.
This woman is Wu Wen.
Wearing light pajamas and long hair shawl, she came behind the fat man, put her hands on the fat man's shoulders, and kneaded them gently.
"Master Xi, tomorrow is the third day."
"It's time to tell them the contents of the three 'letters'..."
Chen Shouxi hummed and said nothing more.
Everyone on the team has found themselves rotting away.
People in the team were panicked.
Originally, there was no time limit for them in this blood gate. If they could not complete the task, the worst they could do was keep wasting it, and they would not die.
But now, everyone knows that they have entered the countdown.
"But... if I tell them what's in the letter, it will cause a terrible commotion, right?"
"This will probably be very detrimental to the team."
Chen Shouxi closed the book, closed his eyes and enjoyed the massage from the beauty behind him.
"There's never a team, Wu Wen."
"It was originally a gathering of wild beasts who were extremely selfish and would do anything to survive."
"It looks like it's twisted into a ball, but actually it falls apart when the wind blows."
Wu Wen's charming expression flashed with something strange, and she said softly:
"Some of them seem to have been with Master Xi for a while..."
Chen Shouxi took a sip of tea:
"Just because you've followed someone for a long time doesn't mean you're loyal."
"Chu Zhu has also been with me for a long time...longer than them all."
Wu Wen was startled when he heard this, and then his tone was a little regretful:
"Chu Zhu is a guy with some potential. He has always had good luck. Unfortunately, he was too ambitious and eventually became our enemy."
Chen Shouxi smiled:
"He can't even be called an enemy. At best, he is just a victim."
"I don't have much talent. I've been with me for so long and I haven't learned as much as you."
Wu Wen stared at the back of Chen Shouxi's head, his eyes moving slightly.
"Thank you, Master Xi, for cultivating me."
"Do you know why I chose you?"
"Wu Wen doesn't know."
Chen Shouxi turned his head slightly and glanced at Wu Wen's half body.
"You'll know when this door closes."
"Go and rest."
Wu Wen refused.
"I will accompany Master Xi again."
The two of them stayed on the rooftop until the morning light came, and then the fat man stretched and sat up from the rocking chair.
"Let's go down, don't keep those guys waiting."
When we arrived at the lobby on the first floor, four people had already been seated here in advance.
The four people all looked anxious to varying degrees. After seeing Chen Shouxi coming down the stairs, they couldn't wait to ask:
"Master Xi, what are the contents of those three 'letters'?"
Chen Shouxi did not go to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for them this morning. He went directly to the dining table, glanced at everyone, and said:
"Are you impatient?"
"It seems that your bodies have begun to rot..."
Chang Shan, who was sitting on the far left, smiled bitterly and said:
"Master Xi, please don't lie. The brothers followed you because they believed in you. Now they are all waiting for your clues to save their lives!"
Chen Shouxi said with a smile:
"You all know the 'rules'."
"I won't show you the 'letter'."
"You can believe whatever I say."
Except for Wu Wen and Chen Shouxi, the other four people looked at each other and nodded without objection.
This is not the first time that everyone present has followed Chen Shouxi through the door, and they know Chen Shouxi's "rules".
"Since you have no objections, let me tell you the contents of the three 'letters'..."
"The first letter - there is only one 'True Pot' in this bloody door, and the 'True Pot' does not require a heart."
"The second letter - after this bloody door, once you kill someone, the body will begin to rot, and it will completely turn into a pile of rotten flesh in five days at the latest."
After Chen Shouxi finished speaking about the contents of the second letter, some people became unable to sit still.
"Master Xi, are you... joking?"
The expression on Chen Shouxi’s face seemed to be a smile but not a smile:
"When have I ever joked with you?"
Uh-huh!
The brown-haired young man sitting opposite Chang Shan stood up, put his hands on the table, and his eyes had turned cold.
"Chen Shouxi, do you know what you are talking about?"
Chen Shouxi ignored his threat.
"Of course I know."
The veins on the brown-haired young man's arms have appeared.
"Everyone will follow you because they believe in you."
"And now you're telling us that you sold us out at the beginning of the mission?"
"Do you think that all the people in the eighth door are greedy for life and afraid of death?"
"Do you think that no one really dares to do anything to you?"
"Chen Shouxi, let me tell you, if I, Qingchun Ren, can't get out, you can't even think of leaving this door alive!"
The faces of everyone present were not very good-looking.
If you say you are not angry, that would be a lie.
They have not done anything to regret Chen Shouxi. If what Chen Shouxi said is true, it means that Chen Shouxi has treated them as cannon fodder from the beginning!
However, Chen Shouxi, as the person involved, seemed very calm.
He didn't even raise his eyes to look at Qing Chunren.
"Finished?"
The atmosphere suddenly turned cold, and no one responded.
Chen Shouxi continued:
"The third letter - only killing can create a 'pot'."
Hearing this, everyone present was startled.
Chen Shouxi slightly took off half of his clothes.
A large area of his heart was damaged.
There was pus dripping down.
"Do you have any other questions?"
Everyone present stared at the rotting position on Chen Shouxi's chest and fell into silence.
Qing Chunren, who was still very aggressive before, now seemed to have his desperate aura poured out by a basin of cold water. He slumped down in his seat, opened his mouth slightly, but said nothing.
Chen Shouxi put on his own clothes.
"On the first day, people from Chu Zhu were also there. That guy has been with me before, and he's been with me longer than you."
"If you do something small in front of him and he sees it later, no one will kill you."
"If you don't kill people, there won't be a 'pot'."
"Of course, you may not care much about these things. What you really care about is whether I am the same as you."
Being exposed in person, the atmosphere became awkward. The thick-skinned Chang Shan coughed dryly:
"I still care more about my own life and death... So, our current task is to find the 'True Pot' before it rots, right?"
"However, since a real pot does not require a heart at all, it means that we have no "bait" at all. It seems a bit too difficult to find a "pot" in such a large town."
Qingchunren sneered:
"Isn't it just too difficult?"
"That's simply impossible!"
"The Blood Sect never releases missions that require death. If you ask me, Chen Shouxi obviously lied."
"After all, no one has seen the real 'letter', right?"
Two people are singing a double act here, one is playing the bad guy and the other is playing the fool.
However, Chen Shouxi's expression seemed very natural.
"Take your heart away."
"If you think this is useful."
