"Damn, when did Lin Yi get such a helper? Fortunately, I was cautious enough to prepare the Alchemic Fire Bomb in advance. Otherwise, today's effort would have been in vain." Kang Ming Ming spat with lingering fear.
Pinliang, on the other hand, was speechless as he looked at the Trash King on the ground. He didn't even know that the two of them had snuck in like that! Wasn't this guy a little too unwary? He was knocked out by Kang Ming Ming with just one move, and Pinliang didn't even have a chance to sneak up on him.
While Pinliang was thinking, Kang Zhaoming had already stepped past the King of Junk and reached the edge of the pool. He looked at the strange lump of metal in the middle of the pool and smiled coldly. "This is the weapon Lin Yi is crafting, right? I heard he even asked Hong Zhong to get him a lot of valuable materials. Let's take this thing away today, don't you think it'll hurt him to death?"
Before Pinliang could say anything, Kang Zhaoming reached into the pool and fished out the lump of metal. The pool looked as calm as a pool of stagnant water, so there wasn't much of a threat to it.
However, right after that, Kang Ming Ming's expression changed abruptly. "ROAR!!!"
A hoarse and miserable howl instantly penetrated the entire cave. Even the birds in the forest outside were startled and flew away.
Phissh! Accompanied by a scalp-numbing sizzling sound, a layer of skin on Kang Ming Ming's hand was burned off. His hands swelled like carrots at a speed visible to the naked eye. He hurriedly let go, and the iron lump fell on his feet with a bang. Another layer of skin was burned off!
Don't be fooled by the Forging Pool's lukewarm appearance, as if it was no different from an ordinary pool. However, the temperature inside was not something a human could endure.
Even if he was a Foundation Establishment expert, his body was still made of flesh and blood. In the eyes of experts, Kang Ming Ming's action was purely a case of an old man hanging himself. He was tired of living.
"It's so hot! It was scalding! It was scalding! Pinliang didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he watched Kang Ming Ming rolling on the ground. He was still thinking of a way to deal with this situation. He didn't think that the idiot would fall into the trap of his own accord!
This was good, he didn't even have to think. Without another word, Pinliang grabbed Kang Ming Ming's ankle and dragged him out of the cave.
After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, Kang Ming Ming's screams finally subsided. He looked at Pinliang and said weakly, "What the hell was that? Why was it so hot!"
Pinliang couldn't help but laugh inwardly. What else could it be? What? Boss Lin Ming Ming Ming Ming Hand? You even dared to use your hands to directly take the things in the Forging Pool. Even with your stupid intelligence, it was truly shocking.
But on the surface, Pinliang's eyes rolled as he analyzed, "Zhaoming, I suspect that this is a trick Lin Yi prepared for us. He used to do this all the time, pretending to be lax to lure us in. Think about it. After what happened last time, this place is obviously exposed. If it were you, would you still stay here to forge? "
Kang Ming Ming paused and shook his head decisively, "Of course not. If it were me, I would've moved a long time ago. I wouldn't stay here and be targeted by others! "
"That's why he should've moved a long time ago. That's why he made this piece of junk to lure us here to destroy it. This is exactly what he wants! "Pinliang said confidently.
"That's right. I was suspecting that this piece of junk doesn't look like a weapon at all. It's a trap! Lin Yi is really cunning. He even got someone to guard this place, making it sound like this piece of junk is something good. I wouldn't have fallen for it otherwise! "Kang Ming Ming cursed angrily.
He was the same type of person. When he analyzed Lin Yi, he naturally had the worst of intentions. He didn't know that he was the one who brought this upon himself. There was only one real reason: he was too stupid.
Seeing that Kang Ming Ming had taken the initiative to explain himself, Pinliang happily agreed. The two returned to the restaurant and reported to Si Haixiao.
Si Haixiao was stunned when he saw that Kang Ming Ming had bandages all over his body. He looked like he was seriously injured. "You were beaten up by Lin Yi?"
"No, Manager Si, I was tricked by him …" Kang Ming Ming started complaining with tears and snot. In summary, it wasn't that he didn't do his best. It was just that Lin Yi was too cunning!
After listening to Kang Ming Ming's story, Si Haixiao, Nantianba, and the others looked at each other. But thinking about it carefully, Kang Ming had his reasons for being tricked this time. If he didn't make Kang Ming Ming hand over his proof of loyalty, Lin Yi wouldn't be able to trick people like this no matter how cunning he was.
"Fine. Although you didn't succeed this time, even if you didn't make any contributions, you still worked hard. This old man has seen your sincerity. Consider this your proof of allegiance. In the future, this old man will naturally protect you," Si Haixiao said coolly.
Kang Ming Ming was overjoyed. He patted his chest and said, "Thank you, Manager Si. If you need anything in the future, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"Very good. Let's see what you do next." Si Haixiao nodded in satisfaction before turning to Pinliang. "Zhaoming is under me now, and I've acknowledged him. But you, Pinliang, I can't just take you in just because you're Zhaoming's friend. You have to contribute something, or you'll have to be put on probation." Pinliang nodded in satisfaction before turning to Pinliang.
Pinliang thought about it and pretended to be troubled. "Manager Si, I also went to destroy things just now. It's just that Zhaoming was in front. He was scalded the moment he picked up the metal lump. I could only save him first. I didn't have a chance to show off."
"That may be the case, but I treat everyone equally. Zhaoming suffered so much before I accepted him. If you want me to accept you as well, you can't have no contributions at all." Si Haixiao shook his head. "That's right.
This old man wasn't easy to fool! Pinliang was secretly panicking. These people were obviously targeting Boss Lin Yi. If he didn't find a way to sneak in now, it would be very difficult to get inside information about them in the future.
Suddenly, Pinliang's eyes lit up. "Right, Manager Si, aren't you looking for people with bad intentions but potential? I happen to know one, and it's a rare beauty!"
