Chapter 58 People’s hearts are no longer the same
While Li Qingzhou was observing the condition of the stream, he suddenly heard a stranger's voice coming from behind the boulder not far away.
"Qian San, why did you come here? I've been waiting for a long time."
The speaker was a man of medium build and with a crew cut.
"Wu Xiong, you were hiding there, no wonder I didn't see you." Qian San replied, with a very relaxed and casual expression on his face.
It seems that the two of them are quite familiar with each other and have a good relationship.
"Aren't you looking for help?" Qian San said, pointed at Li Qingzhou, and continued: "Li Qingzhou, the trainee beast master I met by chance in the forest."
"Hello." Wu Xiong said and walked out from behind the boulder, followed by a plant half as tall as a man.
"Hello." Li Qingzhou replied, while looking at the plant. There was a big mouth on the top of the plant, with traces of sulfur-colored liquid flowing out of it.
[Name: Gluttony Flower]
[Attribute: grass]
[Level: Bronze Level 9]
[Qualification: Silver]
[Skills: corrosive solution, flying leaf sharp knife, huge mouth swallowing]
[Weakness: Fire]
[Evolution route: 1]
[Introduction: There is a leaf on its head to cover its huge mouth facing the sky. The end of the leaf is a long brown vine whip with small yellow leaves. It makes the vines growing on its head move like a small creature. To lure prey, when the prey approaches, it will open its mouth and swallow it in one gulp. The liquid accumulated in its mouth can dissolve everything. 】
The Gluttony Flower looks weird, exudes a foul smell, and exudes an aura of violence.
Ping An looked at Gluttony Flower and couldn't help but grinning and making a low threatening sound.
"Hey, what kind of beast is this? I've never seen a fox with three tails before." Wu Xiong asked doubtfully.
"The evolved form of the red fox. I also took a fancy to Brother Li's strength, so I invited him here. With his help, we can get twice the result with half the effort." Qian San explained that he had inquired about Ping An's prototype on the way here. It's a red fox.
"Well, you are really young and promising." Wu Xiong nodded and couldn't help but praise.
Wu Xiong turned his head, looked in the direction of the stream, and said: "I have observed that there are seven sawtooth crocodiles here. Their strength should be at the bronze level, and they are invincible."
"Yes, head-on confrontation is not a wise choice. I have a plan. We can find one person to lure away the sawtooth crocodile by the stream, and the others will take the opportunity to pick the fire spirit fruit. This way we can avoid fighting and get resources." Qian San thought for a moment and said with a smile.
"But who is going to lure the Sawtooth Crocodile away?" Wu Xiong asked with a slight smile on his lips.
Both of them looked at Li Qingzhou.
"Brother Li's three-tailed spirit fox is powerful and flexible. I think it is very suitable for this task." Qian San said with a kind smile.
"I agree." Wu Xiong immediately agreed, with a harmless smile on his face.
Underneath their friendly smiles were vicious intentions.
They have been coveting this Fire Spirit Fruit Tree for a long time, but they have never been able to find the right time to take action. There are too many saw-toothed crocodiles by the stream. If they attack directly, they may suffer heavy losses.
Both of their pet beasts are bronze-level, and they have no advantage in fighting against the saw-toothed crocodile.
Although they are confident that the two of them can eliminate all the sawtooth crocodiles by the stream, they will also lose a few pet beasts accordingly, which is not worth the gain.
They are also veterans who have been in the wild for several years. They will not take risks if the risks outweigh the benefits. Moreover, both of them are very smart, and no one is willing to take that dangerous bait.
That's why they look for helpers.
Just then, Li Qingzhou, an inexperienced enemy, appeared. If you don't cheat him, then who else!
"This is a resource we discovered. If we don't take any risks, why should we let you participate and get a share of the pie?" Wu Xiong looked at Li Qingzhou and said with a slightly cold expression.
"Brother Li, you won't refuse, will you?" A treacherous smile appeared on Qian San's face, with a hint of threat in his tone.
If Li Qingzhou refuses, then they can only work together to kill Li Qingzhou and share his belongings equally. In this deep mountain and forest, one person's death will not be discovered at all.
Moreover, Li Qingzhou also has the valuable Wood Ling'er on him. Even if he can't get the Fire Spirit Fruit, it's not a loss to get the Wood's Ling'er.
Those who attract the crocodile can also find someone else to take advantage of.
They know the location of the Fire Spirit Fruit Tree and can try to get it at any time.
Li Qingzhou immediately understood the vicious intentions of the two people. He glanced at the situation by the stream again and said, "Okay, I understand, I'll go."
Li Qingzhou agreed simply and without any hesitation.
Qian San and Wu Xiong were surprised by Li Qingzhou's answer. They thought that Li Qingzhou would not agree, would resist, or at least put forward some conditions, such as sharing more resources after the matter was completed.
Unexpectedly, Li Qingzhou agreed so decisively.
This gave Qian San no chance to say the rest of his threatening words.
"Sure enough, he is a young man. He really believes it." Wu Xiong secretly rejoiced in his heart and at the same time cast a proud look at Qian San.
"It's not because of my good acting skills that I deceived him." Qian San was also proud of himself in his heart.
After the thing is done, the resources will be theirs. Li Qingzhou is just a cannon fodder that attracts firepower. It is impossible to get a cent. If he doesn't kill him, he should be grateful.
The two looked at each other and smiled, understanding.
"Then please ask Brother Li to go to the stream, attract all the sawtooth crocodiles as much as possible, and hold them down. We will come to rescue you after picking the fire spirit fruits. By then, your share of the fire spirit fruits will not be missing. Qian San said to Li Qingzhou with a kind smile on his face again.
"It's getting late, go quickly." Wu Xiong urged, he rubbed his hands and couldn't wait to go to the stream to pick the fire spirit fruit.
"Okay, I'll go then." Li Qingzhou responded coldly without looking at them, and strode toward the stream with peace of mind.
The location they were on was a hillside. Walking down the hillside, you could reach the stream.
When Li Qingzhou walked away.
Wu Xiong then said: "Old Qian, your method is so clever. With Li Qingzhou as the bait, we can get trees full of fire spirit fruits without any effort."
"This kid still has a wood ear. After he is bitten to death by a saw-toothed crocodile, his body must be searched. This material resource cannot be wasted." Qian San looked at Li Qingzhou's back and smiled coldly.
"Then let's hope he dies at the hands of the Sawtooth Crocodile. If my Gluttony Flower takes action, he will be dead." Wu Xiong stared at Li Qingzhou's back with greedy eyes.
In their eyes, Li Qingzhou was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
