Black-bellied academics are always duplicity

When they finally came to the ground, there was a long corridor in front of them, but it had an end, and there was a road beside it. They were about to continue walking, when they suddenly saw a big scorpion rushing towards them!
"..." I have to say that the visual impact of this scorpion, especially the big scorpion, is really much more domineering than that of a spider, because spiders are seen every day, but scorpions are not, and they always make people associate with "poisonous". Together, in case we get stabbed...

Entering the special battle space again, Team Leader Xiao immediately blasted at the scorpion!

The scorpion crawled so fast that it rushed towards them as if nothing had happened after the shells exploded behind it. The tip of the tail sting was cold and cold, and it hurt to look at the eyes. Han Wenxi A golden ball hits the scorpion and is evaded again!

If Han Wenxi, the "King of Sealed People" can't hit him again, he might have to change careers. Ji Tangxi still fired his gun peacefully. Shen Zehai's sword stabbed at the scorpion, hitting its tail, and followed closely That part exploded!
At this time, Xiao Qinghan fired another cannon, and finally succeeded in hitting the scorpion. At the same time, Song Qiguang appeared behind the scorpion, and swung at the scorpion fiercely!
Lu Zhiheng's two arrows also hit the monster. Even though the scorpion's body exploded all the time, it didn't affect its action. It rushed towards them at a speed that didn't slow down at all. Among them, except Song Qiguang, who was always making trouble behind the scorpion, Goddess Xia was too lazy to run and flew up, and everyone else was retreating at a speed not inferior to the scorpion. Ji Tangxi didn't know if the scorpion had to get close to them to attack, so was it necessary to kill it while running?
At this moment, the scorpion suddenly stopped, and stabbed Song Qiguang behind him with a sharp tail!
That kid has been running after the scorpion, probably to show off his speed on purpose, but now the scorpion's sudden attack scared him so much that he almost couldn't stop the car, and the sharp thorn was about to pierce his face!
In the next second, he soared into the air, and at the same time hit the tail sting fiercely with the long whip!
The weapons of the two collided with each other. Song Qiguang felt a violent vibration from his hand, and the scorpion was similar. At this moment, Team Leader Xiao bombarded the scorpion again, causing it to roll several times violently, and finally formed a A state of being upside down, of course, was immediately turned upside down.

Oh, it would be great if the scorpion could keep flipping its cover, but Ji Tangxi was just thinking about it, and he soon discovered that this battle seemed to have become a two-person show between Song Qiguang and Xiao Qinghan. There was no way, Xiao Qinghan's The skills are too bad, a cannon can hold dozens of pistols against them, it is an important output force of the team, and Song Qiguang, although his attack power is not good, but his own flying skills and weapon whips are very suitable show!

Right now, I saw that stinky boy holding his whip to fight the scorpion while he was fixed in the sky. The scorpion didn't run away, but stayed where he was fighting with him, and Xiao Qinghan was in charge of firing a cannon from time to time to cheer the two of them up...

Then it didn't take long for the scorpion to disappear before their eyes, and they returned to the entrance of the underground passage.

"I want to remind you first," said the boy who returned to Shen Zehai's arms, "you must remember that the purpose of your coming here is to find books, not anything else, so no matter what you see here, don't read it." Mind your own business, otherwise it may cause unintended consequences, so please remember."

Ji Tangxi: ...I always feel that what he said means that there must be something abnormal hidden in it...

They walked inside while carefully paying attention to the movement around them, but they didn't encounter other attacks after the first scorpion, so they walked to the end of this short road and walked left, then left again, Then, the scene that appeared in front of them left everyone dumbfounded.

Well, it can only be said that Ji Tangxi has never seen such a "tragic" scene with his own eyes in his entire life. I don't know how many cages are in here. Inside... it should not be human beings, because they only have human heads, but other parts They are all animals, including horses, dogs, even tigers and lions, but they are not as strong as those monsters who have fought before. Instead, they are all skinny and have various scars on their bodies. Most of them, and there is even an old man with white hair!
"This is," Team Leader Xiao subconsciously turned to the little boy, "What is this doing?"

The boy lowered his head and didn't answer. Xiao Qinghan rushed over and grabbed his arms and shook them vigorously, "Do you know about this, don't you! Did your father do it!"

Tears almost fell from the boy's eyes, and he bit his lips tightly. Shen Zehai quickly led him to break away from Xiao Qinghan's hand, "Xiao Qinghan!"

Xiao Qinghan didn't step forward, but turned his bloody eyes to others, "Save them for me!"

With that said, raise the gun with the other hand and shoot at the lock on the door!

Ji Tangxi always feels that this matter is particularly problematic, but this problem is nothing compared to the current situation. The locks on the door are not advanced, and they opened them within a few clicks, and everyone broke in , and began to untie the chains on those creatures.

At this moment, all the prison doors were closed, all the locks disappeared, and turned into steel bars one by one. There was no place to "open" in this prison!

"What's going on here?" Team leader Xiao asked the boy outside while grabbing the steel bar.

Shen Zehai let him go before he came in. The current situation is that everyone except the boy is in prison, and it seems that it is impossible to open it from the inside or the outside.

"I warned you," the boy walked up to him, looking straight at him, "don't meddle in your own business here, you won't listen, now you'll never get out of here, I wonder if you will Will you regret it?"

"I don't regret it!" Team Leader Xiao was furious, "Are you testing us? Testing our conscience? Let me tell you, even if I were given a hundred more chances, I would still choose to save them, no matter now or in the future. , I will do this in and out of the assessment, the worst is death!"
The others looked at him and at the boy, wisely choosing not to answer.

"Okay," the boy nodded, "I just want to tell you that as long as you can walk through these cages without looking sideways, you will be able to see the book you are looking for, but you just want to show your courage here, now you Look back!"

Xiao Qinghan turned around, and saw that all the locked creatures had disappeared, leaving them locked in alone.

"Those are all fake, just to seduce you. I know that you may not be tempted to see countless beauties with gold, silver and jewels in this place, but you just can't stand these things, but do you know that there are so many beautiful women in this place throughout the ages? How many people are either defeated by desire or by their own sympathy, especially when I have clearly warned you, knowing that it is a pit of fire and still jumping into it, you are so stupid!"

"..." Ji Tangxi saw their team leader for the first time. His Xiao Qinghan was taught like this, and he didn't dare to look at Xiao Qinghan's face at this time. This boy seemed to have given them a very deep topic, but... ...Thinking about it carefully, this seems to be a dead end...

Sympathy?sacrifice?But since ancient times, even loyalty and righteousness have been inseparable. When it comes time to make a choice, will there be someone who can think clearly, analyze the pros and cons, come to a truly "correct" conclusion, and be worthy of the world and himself?

The boy turned and left, leaving them seven "compassionate" teenagers staying here, "thinking about life".

"I still say that, I don't regret it," the team leader said without even thinking about it, "It's impossible for me to walk past here without looking sideways!"

"Xiao Qinghan!" Han Wenxi yelled, but didn't continue. Ji Tangxi estimated that he should have the same idea as himself, that is, no matter what the reality is, at least in this assessment, their approach is indeed wrong. up.

Just like the boy said, you have already warned you, but you still make mistakes, just like in reality, someone has already reminded that person that the place where you "sympathize" is fake, and you still have to plunge into it, and you will eventually pay heavy consequences. this……

"I don't think there's anything wrong with Xiao Qinghan's actions," Lu Zhiheng said at this time, "It was really hard to think clearly in that situation just now, I even forgot that this was an assessment. Life is all about making choices. Gain or loss, as long as you don't be stupid about matters that matter."
"I agree with Brother Heng," Song Qiguang said, "but this is not important now, the important thing is what do we do next? Is this mission a failure?"

"That's right," Han Wenxi said helplessly, "I don't think we can continue with today's mission, but I don't know how long they will keep us locked up."

No one answered for a while, Ji Tangxi leaned back against the wall, this was his first mission failure.

Although they had never won the first place in the past, they stopped on the day just because they didn't want to do it anymore, unlike now, they were even deprived of their freedom after failure.

What if... wait... Ji Tangxi suddenly thought of something.

"That," he said, "I still have another chance to skip this layer, do you want to use it now?"

After speaking, all eyes turned to him.

That's right, the legendary privilege of skipping one floor is in his hands, but he knows that everyone has the same idea as him, that is, to complete the task by skipping the ninth floor after passing the eighth floor. Can think of...

He looked at Xiao Qinghan, and the others also looked at the team leader. If they use this privilege this time, if they encounter more troublesome things on the next two floors, then...

But now, there seems to be no other way.
