It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 610 The Giant Panda Robbed on the Road
The Nile doctor threw the last handful of herbs into the bowl and then chanted a spell over it.

Soon, the various medicinal herbs in the bowl automatically mixed together, turning into a black paste.

"It's done."

"The Nile doctor said with satisfaction."

The land where the descendants of Ra lived was hot and arid, and spices and other seasonings were scarce, so even nobles and priests needed to use beer or drugs to stimulate their appetite.

The Nile doctor created a digestive aid that was very potent, but also suppressed libido.

Of course, Niu Daji probably doesn't care, and even if he did, it wouldn't matter.

"Doctor, it can't be eaten directly."

Seeing that the Nile doctor was about to force-feed Niu Daji the medicine, Liu Zheng quickly stopped him.

"why?"

"The Nile doctor asked curiously."

"The reasons are complicated, but in short, it can no longer eat."

He said.

"You're a real pain in the neck. Let me think about it."

The Nile doctor didn't ask any more questions and began to think about how to prescribe medicine for Niu Daji.

"Have it!"

He tore off a piece of bandage, rolled it into a stick, and then evenly applied the medicine paste onto it.

"Stick your butt out."

He patted Niu Daji's butt and said.

"Shouldn't rectal medication be considered eating?"

Liu Zheng wasn't quite sure.

"I didn't say I was going to give it rectal medication."

"The Nile doctor said without looking up."

"Huh? So you want it to stick its butt out? Ah! Oh~"

Just as he realized what was happening, the Nile doctor had already grabbed Niu Daji's bull whip and inserted the medicine stick into it.

Steady, accurate, and ruthless!

"Moo!!!"

Niu Daji let out a shrill cry, his huge belly trembling with difficulty.

"Don't move around, or it'll fall out and we'll have to insert it again."

The Nile doctor reprimanded.

"moo"

Niu Daji's eyes were filled with tears as he let out a low growl, a sound that would break the heart and bring tears to the eyes of anyone who heard it.

"Good luck, just bear with it, it will pass soon."

Liu Zheng comforted him.

"Boss, it's okay, I can handle it!"

Niu Daji said firmly.

"Alright, change it again in half an hour."

The Nile doctor put away the medicine bowl and said.

"Moo!!!"

Niu Daji gave up trying to be strong and burst into tears with a moo.

Amidst Niu Daji's screams, the armored vehicle crossed the grassland and arrived at a desolate wasteland.

On both sides of the wasteland are scree slopes, with sparse shrubs and weeds growing on them, and further away are mountains that seem to be shrouded in blue mist.

Liu Zheng knew that this was an optical phenomenon called "Rayleigh scattering".

Because blue light has a short wavelength, it is scattered more in the air.

The farther away a person is from a mountain peak, the more air there is in between, which is why distant mountains appear bluer.

Actually, violet light has a shorter wavelength, but the proportion of violet light in sunlight is much smaller than that of blue light, so we see more blue light.

This knowledge was given to him by a female classmate in college. Her family had been involved in geological exploration for three generations, but she was absolutely forbidden from studying exploration in her generation. However, she still learned a lot about geography and exploration through exposure to it.

As for this female classmate, well, she's just a female classmate, of course.

In the middle of the wasteland, there was a dirt road that stretched all the way into the distant mountains.

"This is the road into the mountains."

Bai San said.

"Fourth brother, drive onto the road."

Liu Zheng gave the instructions.

"okay."

The fourth brother turned the steering wheel to the left and even turned on the turn signal.

"This doesn't feel like a normal dirt road."

After the explosion-proof vehicle drove onto the road, Liu Zheng felt the driving experience and said.

"That's right, this floor is made of a mixture of three types of soil and a special adhesive."

Bai San nodded.

Three-in-one soil is a mixture of clay, fine sand, and gravel, and it is still used in modern construction projects.

Did you lay it?

"It was a joint venture between us and several other businesses."

Bai San replied.

"There are many entrances to the Ten Thousand Mountains. Usually, several families share one entrance. This makes it easier to solve any problems. After all, those barbarians and demon kings like to rob and collect tolls."

"Of course, there are also those with particularly strong resources that have their own entrances. And then there are city halls, where you can go whichever road you want."

He went on to explain.

"I see. Will we encounter those barbarians and the demon king?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Probably not. The people in the Ten Thousand Mountains also have their own spheres of influence. The demon king whose influence covers this area is a bear demon. He is quite trustworthy and sometimes does business with us."

Bai San replied.

"That's good."

He released the client's finger from the severed mandarin duck wallet, but the finger remained quietly on his tentacle, offering no guidance.

"It seems that we haven't entered the Ten Thousand Mountains yet."

Liu Zheng put his fingers into his pocket.

The explosion-proof vehicle drove forward and soon saw a small hill in the distance.

The mountain is lush and green, with very dense vegetation.

"This mountain is called Green Bamboo Mountain. Once you climb this mountain, you'll enter the territory of the Ten Thousand Mountains."

Bai San explained.

"Okay, fourth brother, how are the road conditions?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"No problem, Mr. Liu."

The fourth brother replied.

"Then let's go full speed ahead."

We wasted a lot of time on the way.

"Yes!"

The fourth brother floored the accelerator, and the car's speed soared to 300 km/h.

The large, heavy body violently pushed aside the surrounding air, and the wind noise was so loud that even the specially made sound insulation layer could not completely block it out.

Fortunately, the materials and workmanship of this test vehicle were solid enough that the body barely shook and there was no bumpy feeling.

"parking!"

Just as the path leading up the mountain was becoming increasingly visible, a loud shout suddenly rang out, like a thunderclap.

"I knew something was going to happen."

Liu Zheng remained calm and drew his rusty knife.

The other three were also ready for battle.

As for Niu Daji, it should just stay still.

However, after the fourth brother braked, the person who shouted did not appear, and there was no movement around, as if what they had just heard was just a hallucination.

"doctor?"

Liu Zheng raised his chin towards the Nile River doctor.

The Nile doctor understood and got off the car with him.

"Still moving! I told you to stop!"

Another angry roar echoed from the sky.

"Yeah, we're walking, not driving."

Liu Zheng defended himself.

"You can't even walk, you're not allowed to move at all!"

The voice paused for a moment, then spoke in a fit of anger and embarrassment.

"You can stay still, but you have to show yourself and tell us what's going on, right? Otherwise, you're wasting both our time and yours, aren't you?"

"Okay. Wait for me for five more minutes, no, ten minutes."

The voice thought what he said made sense, so it spoke.

"Okay, I'm starting the timer now."

Liu Zheng took out his phone and turned on the timer.

"Brother Bai, does that voice sound familiar?"

At the same time, he asked Bai San, "Never heard of it."

Bai San shook his head.

"That would be troublesome."

Liu Zheng sighed.

Time passed slowly, and ten minutes quickly came to an end.

"I am coming!"

The voice sounded again.

Then, a black dot flew over from the sky, growing larger as it went.

"Boom!"

A colossal object crashed to the ground.

Wow, it's huge!

He exclaimed in surprise as he looked at the black-and-white fat man in front of him.

"A panda."

"Panda? What panda?"

The chubby man in black and white got up, scratched his butt, and asked in confusion.

"You."

Liu Zheng said it quite naturally.

The giant beast before us has black and white fur, bird-like black eye patches, and short, round limbs—it is a panda that couldn't be more perfect.

Moreover, it has scallop-like ears, a round and full head curve, a hamster-like face, and a bright, smiling mouth. Even among pandas, it is among the most beautiful, much like Fei Yun, a representative of "cute girls" in the real-life panda world.

"A bear is a bear, and a cat is a cat. What panda? I'm not a mixed breed."

The black-and-white fat man did not accept this title.

"Alright, how should I address you, Mr. Monokuma?"

Liu Zheng readily accepted good advice.

"What black and white bear? That sounds awful. I'm an iron-eating beast."

The black-and-white fat man said with disdain.

"Iron-eating beast? Oh, I think that's what it's called."

He seemed to have heard that pandas were called "iron-eating beasts" in ancient times and were also the mount of Chiyou, but he had not seen the source.

"So, do you really eat iron?"

he asked curiously.

"Why would I eat that stuff? But sometimes I'll take a bite or two to exercise my teeth."

The black-and-white fat man replied.

"Since you don't eat iron, calling yourself an iron-eating beast is a misnomer. You might as well be called a panda, which has the strength of a bear and the agility of a cat."

Liu Zheng looked at its size, which was even larger than an armored vehicle, and said.

"Besides, with your robust physique, we can add the word 'big' to your name and call you 'Giant Panda,' which sounds much better than 'Iron-Eating Beast.'"

"What you say makes sense. Alright, from now on I'll be called Giant Panda."

The black-and-white fat man pondered for a moment, then said happily.

"It's not that you're called a giant panda, it's that your entire species is called a giant panda."

Liu Zheng corrected.

"I have never seen a creature that looks like me."

The giant panda shook its head.

"No way. You've met your mother, haven't you?"

He recalled that after successful mating, the male panda would leave or even be chased away by the female panda.

But even if this giant panda never saw its father, it must have seen its mother.

"never seen it."

The giant panda shook its head again.

"Then how did you manage to live to be so old?"

“I was found by my master, and my master is a human. Oh, unlike you, he is a pure human, without tentacles or hooves.”

The giant panda emphasized.

"Thanks for reminding me that I'm not human."

Liu Zheng said irritably.

"At first, I didn't know what I was. Later, my master taught me meditation. Through meditation, I gained some bloodline memories and then I knew what I was."

The giant panda continued.

"Didn't you try to find someone like you?"

"Yes, I have been looking. After my master passed away, I went down the mountain to search for my kind. I've been searching for several years now, but I haven't found any. I just got tired of searching, so I found a mountain and became a demon king to rest for a while."

"That's what the giant panda said."

"So you're the demon king of Green Bamboo Mountain? Didn't the Bai family already pay you protection money? Why are you stopping us? Don't you have any sense of chivalry?"

He frowned.

"What Bai family? When did they ever pay protection money to me?"

The giant panda was initially confused, but then it understood.

"Oh, I see. You mean that bear demon? I've already killed it."

"Then you must have taken over its property, right? So the protection money you paid before was essentially handed over to you."

Liu Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then immediately came up with an explanation.

"Bullshit property!"

He would have been better off not mentioning it, because the mere mention of the giant panda only fueled his anger.

"That bear demon not only had no money, but also owed a huge gambling debt to the demon kings of several nearby mountains. I had just killed it when those demon kings came to collect the debt."

“I said that its debt has nothing to do with me, but those demon kings said that it’s fine if I don’t repay the debt, then this mountain will have to be given to them as collateral.”

"This mountain doesn't matter, but I can't bear to part with all the green bamboo on it, so I have to come out and make money."

"That damned bear spirit from the rat's day, I should have boiled it alive and eaten it."

The giant panda muttered under its breath.

"So you're here to rob us?"

Liu Zheng grasped the key point.

“That’s right. Since you gave my race a pretty good name, give me 50,000 yuan and I’ll let you go. If you don’t have that much money, then leave this car behind.”

The giant panda glanced at the armored vehicle and said.

Although it doesn't know the car's price, it can tell that this is a good product.

"Oh, right, keep that cow too. It's so fat, enough for several meals."

The giant panda looked at Niu Daji in the car and couldn't help but lick its nose.

"That won't do. He's my only little brother. If I give him to you, who will I use?"

Liu Zheng shook his head and refused.

"Alright, then give it an extra ten thousand to save its life."

"I can't believe it," the giant panda said regretfully.

"can."

He readily took out 110,000.

The panda's eyes widened as it looked at the stacks of hundred-yuan bills on the ground.

Wow, you're so rich.

"Can you let me pass now?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"I've changed my mind. If you come up with another million, I'll let you go."

The giant panda rolled its black eyes and said.

"Hey, trying to raise prices on the spot, is that it?"

He said with dissatisfaction.

"What we just collected was a toll, and what we're collecting now is an environmental protection fee. With such a large vehicle and such a heavy group of people crossing the mountain, it will definitely have a negative impact on the mountain environment."

The giant panda spoke with conviction.

"No wonder he was raised by someone else, he's got a lot of tricks up his sleeve."

Liu Zheng pursed his lips.

"Stop talking nonsense and pay up."

"I can't believe it," the giant panda said impatiently.

"Wait a minute. Doctor, can we win?"

He turned to ask the Nile doctor.

"It shouldn't be a big problem."

"The Nile doctor sensed it for a moment and then said."

"Alright. Fourth Brother, Bai San, come and take it down!"

With a loud shout, Liu Zheng drew his sword and slashed at the giant panda.

A person who doesn't keep their word will always keep their word; he doesn't believe this guy will let them go just because he received a million.

Since that's the case, there's no need to waste time arguing. Let's all charge forward side by side and slay this evil monster.

"Hey! Why are you just going to start a fight like this? If you think it's too expensive, you can negotiate the price."

The giant panda was also startled by his sudden change of attitude, and shouted while blocking.

"I don't do business with untrustworthy guys, you'd better die!"

Liu Zheng's eyes were bloodshot and his face was ferocious; he was even more of a bandit than a bandit himself.
