Chapter 233 Zhang Wuji also wants to curry favor with others, and he is just a passerby
Who hasn’t Ni Kun seen nowadays?
Hearing the names of Di Yun, Yin Li, and Zhang Wuji, he only felt a little emotional in his heart, but his face remained calm. He gently tossed the clear yellow crystal and smiled at the three people:
"Is this what you came for?"
“Uh…” Zhang Wuji smiled awkwardly: “We, that…”
He was not very good at lying, so he could only look to Yin Li for help.
Yin Li rolled her eyes at Zhang Wuji, looked at Ni Kun, and said straightforwardly:
"Yes, that's what we're here for. Name your price!"
Ni Kun thought for a moment and asked:
"How do you know this giant python will drop this bead?"
Yin Li widened his eyes:
"No way? Are you new here?
"When you kill dangerous monsters, something will drop. The stronger and more dangerous the monster is, the more valuable the item it drops. Isn't this common sense?"
Ni Kun's heart moved, and he asked again:
"So you've been here a long time?"
After hearing what he said, Yin Li, Zhang Wuji and Di Yun all looked strange.
Take a closer look at Ni Kun's outfit:
He was wearing gorgeous clothes, a golden crown and a jade belt. There was no mud on the hem of his clothes, and even his boots were spotless.
She had long, clean, fresh hair, and her bun was neatly combed. She seemed to be completely untroubled by the heat, humidity, dirt, and blood-sucking insects, and she was unaware that her clothes and hair might get caught on branches, vines, or thorns.
The three of them looked at each other and nodded at the same time: That's right, this person is a newcomer.
But the new guy was able to easily kill such a powerful python without even getting his clothes dirty or messy...
Are all newcomers monsters?
Of course, Ni Kun has a very good appearance and a very friendly temperament, which gave the three of them a good impression. They felt that he was not a bad person, so although they were wary, they were not overly alert.
"We have indeed been here for some time, and we were not originally here..."
Zhang Wuji said:
"A-Li and I were together at the beginning, and appeared in a white room... I think you have experienced this before. Later, we met Brother Di in another room, so we traveled together and then came to this strange world.
"There are dense forests and swamps everywhere. Almost everything here is much larger than what we have seen before. There are also a lot of strange plants that we have never seen before. What's more terrifying is that there are many large monsters like the giant python."
Di Yun continued:
“We have been here for more than three months and have been trying to find a way to leave.
“During this period, we discovered that we could get something by killing , just like we did in those white rooms.
"Sometimes you can find food and water in the monster's lair, sometimes you can get weapons, and sometimes monsters will drop some very useful weapons and treasures, such as the bead in your hand."
Yin Li glared at them unhappily, thinking that these two guys were idiots.
When someone asks you a question, you just blurt out everything?
Don’t you know how to propose some conditions?
But I don't know what Zhang Wuji is thinking:
Although this young man doesn't look like a bad person, one should not judge a book by its cover. I once fell into the trap of judging a book by its cover when I was at Zhuwu Lianhuanzhuang.
And he was so strong that he killed the giant python without breaking a sweat or getting his clothes dirty...
If he had ill intentions towards us, we would be completely powerless to resist.
So instead of angering him and being caught and tortured by him, it is better to cooperate and answer the questions honestly...
As for Di Yun, he didn't think so much at all - he was just a disciple of the "Lying Corpse Sword Sect" and had not experienced all kinds of tragic encounters. However, Di Yun was an honest, simple and good young man without any scheming.
At this time, Ni Kun suddenly asked:
"How do you know that the bead in my hand is a good thing?"
Zhang Wuji said sincerely:
"To be honest, we found this giant python two days ago. And through some tricks, we determined that it would drop a very useful treasure. So we spent the whole day setting traps yesterday, preparing to lure it out of the water and kill it. Unexpectedly, after everything was arranged today, when I sneaked over, I saw that you had already killed the giant python..."
Di Yun also nodded and said:
"That's right. When we came here, we saw that the giant python was already dead, and you were standing in front of its head in a daze. We didn't know your background, so we didn't dare to show up to see you."
This explains that they were not targeting Ni Kun, nor did they want to snatch the pearl from him.
If it were someone else, Ni Kun would not believe this.
Even after Yin Li said this, Ni Kun became highly suspicious.
However, since they are Zhang Wuji and Di Yun, the credibility will naturally be much higher.
He nodded and smiled:
"In that case, it was me who caused you to waste two days of effort."
Zhang Wuji shook his head and said:
"Brother, you are too polite. Our names are not engraved on the head of this giant python. It is only natural that it is first come first served."
Ni Kun asked again:
"You said before that you met some bad guys. Is there anyone else here?"
Di Yun said:
"A month ago, we encountered a guy named Yun Zhonghe, who brought two followers with him. He wanted to steal our weapons and food. After we beat him away, he haunted us and often rushed out to steal our spoils after we had finally killed the monsters. In the past month, he has succeeded twice."
Crane in the clouds?
Ni Kunqi said: "Can't you completely deal with them?"
Since Zhang Wuji has grown into a young man and met Yin Li, who has practiced the "Thousand Spiders and Ten Thousand Poisonous Hands", his Nine Yang Divine Art is at least close to perfection.
Even though they were suppressed by the "cube" space and their strength was reduced to almost nothing, Zhang Wuji and his men had been here for more than three months and they all knew the "common sense" of killing monsters and getting treasures. It was time for them to get some good stuff from monsters and restore some of their strength, right?
Besides, Yun Zhonghe would also be suppressed and his strength would decline. And since Yun Zhonghe's companions were just "followers", they couldn't be the other two of the four evil men.
Then with Zhang Wuji, Yin Li, and Di Yun...
Well, although Di Yun of the Tangshi Sword School is naturally strong and has good sword and palm skills, and his natural strength and skills such as sword and palm will not be suppressed, Ni Kun still feels that Di Yun may not even be able to beat Yin Li.
But they are both suppressed anyway, and the two sides are just fighting each other. It shouldn’t be that even Yun Zhonghe can’t handle it, right?
Zhang Wuji said ashamedly:
"The Yun Zhonghe's body movements are extremely agile, and the complex environment of the forest is very suitable for him to display his skills. His martial arts skills are also very strong. We fought with him for a few times. Sometimes we were able to beat him away, and sometimes we were beaten away by him... If we didn't run away, and really fought to the death, I'm afraid the best outcome would be that we would die together."
It is generally acknowledged that the fledgling Zhang Wuji has high attributes but poor operation skills. It is not surprising that he cannot defeat an experienced thief like Yun Zhonghe who has rich practical combat experience and high martial arts skills.
Having said that, Zhang Wuji was not just a novice when he first started out.
At his peak, his skills were the best in the world, and his martial arts were super luxurious, but his actual combat operations were still worrying.
At this time, Yin Li couldn't help but said:
"We've told you everything. Shouldn't you give us some compensation? For example, this bead in your hand?"
Ni Kun smiled, gently tossed the yellow gem in his hand, and asked:
"One last question, why do you want this bead so much?"
The three of them looked at each other. Yin Li's eyes rolled and she opened her mouth to speak. Zhang Wuji saw her expression and knew she wanted to lie, so he quickly spoke before her:
"To be honest, this orb may help us find the 'door' to leave here."
He didn't want to lie to a strong man like Ni Kun. If he angered the other party, the consequences would be very bad.
Besides, if Ni Kun is a good person and he is consistent in his words and deeds, if they can travel with him, then the three of them will have found a strong supporter and will no longer have to worry about Yun Zhonghe snatching the spoils.
"Oh?" Ni Kun raised his eyebrows in surprise: "This pearl actually has such a function?"
In his hands, the orb can only enhance his perception.
If I want to find the door, does it have this function?
Of course, Zhang Wuji and the other two have been here for more than three months, so they should have mastered more information.
"Just maybe help us find the door."
Zhang Wuji didn't dare to be too confident. After all, he hadn't touched the pearl himself yet, so how could he be sure of its function?
"In that case..."
Ni Kun threw the pearl to Zhang Wuji:
"Just check and see if you can use it to find the door."
Zhang Wuji raised his hand to take the pearl and looked at Ni Kun in astonishment. It was obvious that he had not expected that he would actually throw the pearl to him.
Is it because he is confident and not afraid that we will covet his treasures? Or is it that he is a generous and open-minded person?
Zhang Wuji seriously lacks confidence in his ability to judge people and cannot guess what kind of person Ni Kun is.
But he still naturally hoped that Ni Kun was a truly good person.
"Don't be in a daze, hurry up and check it out. This damn place is so hot and humid, it's very uncomfortable to stay here."
Ni Kun had long been immune to cold and heat, and had not been affected by the environment for a long time. Today, he felt uncomfortable because of the environment and climate, and just wanted to leave this damn place as soon as possible.
"Oh well."
Zhang Wuji came back to his senses, picked up the pearl and placed it in front of his right eye. A ray of light suddenly burst out from his pupil and shone on the clear yellow pearl.
Di Yun also came over and stood beside Zhang Wuji, looking at the pearl, and asked:
"Are you sure? Can this orb find the door?"
Yin Li remained alert and looked at Ni Kun with a slightly wary look.
"This orb... is useful!" Zhang Wuji nodded excitedly, "But a single orb is not enough. I need to collect two similar orbs to find the 'door'."
Ni Kunyi raised his eyebrows: "How did you know for sure?"
Zhang Wuji ignored Yin Li's eyes and said calmly:
“We once killed a giant monster bird that tried to eat us. A gem fell out of its eyeball and merged into my right eye.
"From now on, my right eye can detect which monsters will drop treasures to a certain extent, and roughly estimate their functions. Of course, after obtaining the treasure, I have to observe it in detail to truly determine the treasure's ability."
Wow, treasure-hunting eye plus identification eye, this is a pretty good ability!
Ni Kun nodded and smiled calmly at Yin Li's slightly nervous look:
"Very good. With this ability, it shouldn't take much effort to collect the other two orbs. I'll give this orb to Master Zhang for safekeeping for now."
After hearing what he said, Yin Li was filled with surprise, thinking to himself, could it be that this man is really a good person who is consistent in his words and deeds?
Well, looking at the way he is dressed and his fair skin, he might be a young man from a prominent family, and he is used to being generous.
My vigilance towards Ni Kun suddenly lessened.
Di Yun was extremely happy and grinned from ear to ear.
Zhang Wuji was a little embarrassed: "This pearl can enhance perception and avoid danger in advance..."
Ni Kun smiled : "Wouldn't it be a perfect match with Master Zhang's right eye? It can not only detect treasures, but also detect dangers in advance. Wouldn't it be more secure when we search for and collect the orbs?"
Zhang Wuji bowed to Ni Kun and said, "Mr. Ni, you are so generous. It would be disrespectful for Zhang Wuji to refuse your kindness!"
He was very happy when he spoke, not only because he got the precious pearl, but also because it seemed that Ni Kun wanted to travel with them.
With Ni Kun as a strong supporter, not only the chances of finding the pearls are greatly increased, but the three jumping clowns of Yun Zhonghe are no longer a concern.
To celebrate Ni Kun joining their group, Zhang Wuji and his two companions decided to take him to their camp and prepare a good meal for him.
Ni Kun actually didn't want to waste time here.
He also wants to explore the secrets of this world and find Capricorn.
However, Zhang Wuji's "treasure-hunting eyes" only have a detection range of a hundred meters and will be affected by the environment. He has no clue about searching for the other two pearls for the time being. There is no need to rush, so he follows the three people's suggestion and goes to the camp to rest and have a good meal.
Ni Kun is not now infinitely energetic and tireless.
Not only will you be affected by the environment and feel uncomfortable, but you will also be physically and mentally tired and really need to rest and eat.
In the dense forest, vines grow, thorns are everywhere, there are dark swamps and poisonous insects everywhere, and the road is difficult.
Zhang Wuji, holding the clear yellow pearl in his hand, led the way and constantly reminded everyone to avoid danger.
After walking for more than two hours, Ni Kun was sweating profusely. He felt that this wide-sleeved and gorgeous robe was very cumbersome. When he was about to stop and change into neat clothes, Zhang Wuji suddenly shouted:
"Get down!"
Di Yun and Yin Li did not hesitate and quickly lay on the ground with Zhang Wuji.
Ni Kun didn't react at all and continued to stand upright.
Just as Zhang Wuji and the other two were lying down, a whooshing sound was heard.
A row of huge arrows as big as spears flew over the heads of Zhang Wuji and the other two who were lying on the ground, flew to the woods on the other side, and pierced into the huge tree trunks with a loud thud, at least a foot deep into the wood.
With the power of this row of giant arrows, if they hit a person, they would directly shoot the person into the air, pierce the person from front to back, and nail him to the ground.
As for Ni Kun, not a single giant arrow was shot at him.
Now his five elements transformation, human immortal body, demon golden body, etc. are all dormant, and he is no longer an indestructible body of steel.
But he still has the life-saving skill, right?
The last time he fought Sima Yi Cell, he died more than 3,800 times and refreshed nearly 40 kryptonian skills.
One of the skills is called "Akalin's Technique". No one knows which world it comes from, but its function is to greatly reduce one's sense of existence, making other people and even other creatures unaware of one's existence.
There were poisonous insects everywhere in this forest. Sometimes when walking, leeches and other blood-sucking insects would fall on his head. In order to avoid being bothered by poisonous insects, Ni Kun had already spent ten days to use this skill that could last for a long time.
Therefore, his presence is now so low that the poisonous insects on the road will not bother him, and Zhang Wuji and the other two have almost completely forgotten his existence.
Even Zhang Wuji and his companions were unaware of his existence, so the guys ambushing in the nearby woods naturally wouldn't aim at him.
