Cheng Yu looked at Ren Xiaosu in bewilderment. This fellow used to sing nursery rhymes by himself. But now, he was using hardtack to tempt others to sing nursery rhymes with him?!
Thinking of this, Cheng Yu suddenly had a little doubt about the future.
Meanwhile, Wang Yun's face turned pale. As the director of the Kong Clan's 2nd Military Intelligence Division, how could he sing nursery rhymes with others for the sake of some hardtack?
The other party was probably underestimating Wang Yun too much!
Ten minutes later, Ren Xiaosu said loudly, "Wait, that's not right. There's a word missing. Let's do it again!"
Wang Yun said, "A snail carries a heavy shell on its back …."
When Wang Yun's subordinates saw this, they thought to themselves that their superior was really good at enduring humiliation. In order to get food for them, he even sang nursery rhymes with others.
Just now, his subordinates had advised Wang Yun to ignore this young man. However, Wang Yun passionately said that as their superior, how could he let his subordinates starve with him? He was not that kind of person.
His subordinates were a little touched. They really did not follow Wang Yun for nothing.
Moreover, Wang Yun felt that if Ren Xiaosu had asked him to sing the nursery rhymes by himself, he really would not have been able to accept it. It was like someone throwing some food in front of him and saying it would make him happy. In such a situation, Wang Yun would rather starve.
But the situation was a little different now. Ren Xiaosu was singing along with him, so the humiliation was not as severe.
However, he could not understand what was wrong with the young man in front of him.
Honestly, even Ren Xiaosu himself did not know what was wrong with this palace.
When the others at the campsite saw this strange scene, they did not know what to say for a long time. After Ren Xiaosu finished singing, Luo Lan immediately shouted to everyone, "Let's not waste any more time. Let's set off quickly!"
When Ren Xiaosu wiped out the Pyro Company's members last night, Luo Lan asked Ren Xiaosu in private how many of them he had killed. In the end, Ren Xiaosu said he had killed a few dozen of them, and there should be quite a few members of Dusk among them.
This place was very close to the Sacred Mountains to begin with. Yet, Ren Xiaosu had even killed so many of their people at their doorstep. How could the Pyro Company tolerate this? They would definitely send more people over.
So if they didn't leave now, they might not be able to leave anymore. They could only leave quickly and fight a guerrilla war with the other party.
Although entering the Sacred Mountain would also be dangerous, it seemed that it was better to go anywhere than to stay in this fog.
The Pyro Company clearly had a way to find them in the fog at any time, but they could not do anything about it.
Cheng Yu asked Big Bluff, "Have you really never entered the Sacred Mountains before?"
Big Bluff thought about it and said, "Actually, I went in a little bit, but just a little bit …"
Cheng Yu was speechless when he saw Big Bluff's expression. The other party was not telling the truth at all.
Not long after they set off, the fog on Mt. Shenchi gradually dissipated. Just as Big Bluff had mentioned before, Mt. Shenchi was not always shrouded in fog. It seemed that there would be a day where the fog would dissipate every three days.
"Let's hurry up and get going." Big Bluff said, "It was supposed to take us another two days to get there, but that was because of the fog. Now that the fog is gone, let's hurry up. Who knows, we might be able to get out of here in just over a day."
"I finally heard some good news after entering the mountains." Cheng Yu sighed. It was as though the haze in his heart had dissipated.
He looked at "Old Xu" in the crowd. He had been in a state of silence since last night. After setting off, he had been walking at the front of the group and did not communicate with anyone.
Just as they were about to leave Mt. Shenchi, everyone heard the rustling sound of the tarantulas attacking again. Everyone was very familiar with this sound, so they immediately got nervous.
The sound of the tarantulas' joints hitting the ground made everyone's scalps tingle.
But before the tarantulas could get close, White Mask took out a small black box. A strange sound came from the box, scaring the tarantulas away.
This surprised everyone. Some people asked what it was, but "Old Xu" never answered any questions.
But gradually, everyone got the feeling that there was nothing White Mask could not solve along the way.
Cheng Yu looked at Old Xu's back and felt an inexplicable sense of peace. He turned around and looked at Ren Xiaosu and Luo Lan, who were at the back of the group. He wondered what Luo Lan was thinking. Why would he look for this young man to cozy up to him?
If he wanted to cozy up to someone powerful, he would have to cozy up to someone like White Mask. Why did he look for a singer and dancer?!
Cheng Yu suddenly felt it was too appropriate to describe Ren Xiaosu as a singer and a dancer.
However, Ren Xiaosu did not notice Cheng Yu's expression. When the entire group set foot on the border between Mt. Shenchi and the Sacred Mountains, he finally heard the palace announce, "The side quest has been completed. As the host has completed all the quests perfectly, a new skill, Ear Picker, has been awarded."
When Ren Xiaosu heard the first three words, he felt refreshed. But when he heard the last three words, he was confused. He even had an ominous feeling about it.
Moreover, one of the display boxes on the wall of the palace lit up again. An exquisite ear picker was floating in that box, emitting a faint glow.
Ren Xiaosu's expression gradually turned ferocious. Names like "Diamond Constellation Fist" and "Rising Dragon of Mount Lu" sounded especially cool.
Why was it that when he used such a common name like ear picker, it sounded like he was a technician in charge of ear picking in a bathhouse …
In the future, when he got into a fight with others, they would announce themselves: "I'm a T5 combatant from the Pyro Company's Breaking Dawn."
Ren Xiaosu would announce himself: "Hello, I'm Technician 001 at your service."
Didn't that sound a little improper?!
He asked the palace in his mind, "What's the use of this skill?"
To his surprise, the palace replied, "Unauthorized to answer."
Ren Xiaosu could not help but say, "You're the one who rewarded me with this skill, so why can't you tell me what it's used for?"
"Unauthorized to answer."
Ren Xiaosu started to get upset. For the past seven days, he had even shamelessly completed quests every day while singing and dancing. Did you think it was easy for him? In the end, you gave him an unreliable skill, and you even refused to tell me what it was used for?
How could you let me down?
If I wanted an ear picker, I could have spent a few cents to buy one. Why did I have to use one from your palace?
Ren Xiaosu took out the ear picker from the palace. He held it in his hand and looked at it for a while before starting to pick his ear.
While he was picking his ear, Luo Lan, who was walking beside him, tried to pat him on the shoulder. But just as his palm was about 30 centimeters away from Ren Xiaosu, it was pushed away by an invisible force.
Luo Lan was stunned.
Ren Xiaosu was also stunned!
He looked silently at the ear picker in his hand. Then he remembered an old saying: "Don't touch your ear when picking."
