Zhao Kun held the small red sandalwood box with his hands and showed the pearl inside to everyone. His gesture seemed to be showing an ordinary fish eye, without the slightest caution, which showed that he was used to it. of these rare treasures.
Ji Yutang noticed this, and she was increasingly able to conclude that the person behind the establishment of the Taiping Religion was a member of the royal family. Moreover, Zhao Kun must have gained the favor of the person behind the scenes, and he has seen a lot of good things. Otherwise, how could a clerk like Zhao Kun have the confidence to treat such a big pearl like a fish eye?
If you put it this way, Zhao Kun should know a lot about the Taiping Religion?
Thinking of this, Ji Yutang geared up, preparing to find an opportunity to use the melon-eating system to contact Zhao Kun and have a closer look.
After the presentation, Zhao Kun said: "This little game is also very interesting. Although it will be a little tense and exciting, I know some people like to pursue this kind of tension and excitement."
Ji Yutang rolled her eyes, she could no longer listen to Zhao Kun's words.
"Then let me explain how to play this little game?" Zhao Kun pointed at the crystal box, "I will cover this box with a cloth later."
As he spoke, Zhao Kun casually placed the small rosewood box in his hand on the table. He picked up the thick silk on the side and gestured on the crystal box.
"Just like this, it can be on the box. Then, there is a small opening in the cloth, and our hands can reach into the box through this small opening."
Zhao Kun made a gesture of putting his hand in, and then said: "You can clearly see my hand because the side of the box facing everyone is not covered by a cloth. But, I can't see it myself. Yes, this is a feature of this exciting little game.”
Ji Yutang said softly to Xie Huaichu: "It's just what I guessed."
Xie Huaichu nodded silently, his blood boiling in his heart. Zhao Kun and the Taiping Sect behind him were so evil. They really didn't regard the people as human beings. Even if it's not for the queen, but for the people, he still has to find a way to get the information about the person behind the scenes!
Zhao Kun didn't know that Ji Yutang and Xie Huaichu had seen through his trick. He was still explaining word for word: "Wait a minute, I will put the bead in this crystal box, and the contestants will have to put their hands Reach in and get the beads Take it out. As long as you take out the beads, you will not be eliminated. If you don't take out the beads, you will be eliminated. In the end, only ten contestants will compete in the third level."
"It can't be that simple, right? Just get beads?" You Erlang asked.
Zhao Kun glanced at him appreciatively and said, "You are right. If it were so simple, what fun would there be?"
So, Zhao Kun stretched out his hand and motioned everyone to look at the neatly arranged bottles and jars, and asked, "Do you know what's inside?"
Everyone shook their heads, not knowing why.
Zhao Kun smiled again. He laughed frequently now, but it was not a happy smile from the heart, but an indifferent smile that was cold, disgusting, sarcastic, and contemptuous. It made people feel very uncomfortable.
"What's in here are all kinds of insects, snakes, rats, and ants." Zhao Kun said, grabbed a small urn, pulled out the stopper, and tilted the small urn to show it to everyone.
People who are close can see at a glance that there is a big black and shiny centipede on the bottom of the urn.
"Oh my God! It's so scary!"
"Big centipede!"......
The crowd screamed again and again, but the contestants sank their hearts at the same time. They all realized what a "tense and exciting" game this was.
Zhao Kun plugged the stopper with quick hands and eyes, then put the small urn back, pointed at the other bottles and jars and said: "These are all kinds of insects, snakes, rats and ants, but some are poisonous and some are not poisonous. But they There is one thing in common among them, that is, the uniform looks terrible, very scary." At this point, Zhao Kun glanced at the contestants and said, "Let everyone stretch their hands later. When touching the beads, everyone also draws a stick, and the number on the stick represents which small jar. At that time, the insects, snakes, rats and ants in the bottles with corresponding numbers will be put in together. You need to carefully avoid the drawn items without seeing the specific situation, and then you will not be eliminated if you get the pearl.”
After Zhao Kun finished speaking, he looked at the contestants and found that the contestants were silent and all looked as if they were vegetables. The people watching also found this little game difficult and did not feel excited or happy.
Some people weakly put forward their own opinions: "This is too terrible. We are just screening out five contestants. Is there any need to put poisonous insects, snakes, rats, and ants in it? And the box is so small. If you want to see it in the box, How easy is it to get the pearl when you don't have it? In addition, the contestants can't see it, so they will feel nervous and fearful. Maybe a wrong pearl will slip out of their hands, and won't they miss out on success?" br>
Some people echoed: "Yes, and the price of failure is too high. Venomous insects, snakes, rats and ants, what if you get bitten? This is too scary. Who dares to play with it?"
Facing everyone's discussion, Zhao Kun was not affected. He actually nodded in agreement, as if collecting feedback, he said: "What everyone said makes sense, but don't worry, what I said is poisonous." It's just an exaggeration to heighten the atmosphere of terror. In fact, only five are poisonous. , corresponding to the five eliminated contestants. Moreover, the poison on these insects, snakes, rats, and ants is not a poison that can seal the throat when it is seen. It is a toxin that we specially cultivated by someone to paralyze people. It’s life-threatening. Don’t worry, everyone will be fine.”
After Zhao Kun finished speaking, he waved to a believer at the back and motioned for him to come forward.
After the cultist came over, Zhao Kun opened the small urn and poured the big, shiny black centipede directly into the cultivator's hand!
Everyone was startled, held their breath, and stared at the believers' every move without even daring to blink.
I saw that the believer had a relaxed expression and a peaceful face, letting the big centipede crawl on his hand.
Zhao Kun suddenly raised his hand and poked the centipede. The centipede was frightened and bit the cultist's arm fiercely.
"Oh my God!"
"Bite!"
"No one will die!"......
Facing the panic of the people, the believer showed very calmness, while Zhao Kun slowly put the centipede back in the small urn.
"Don't worry, everyone, we found someone to cultivate this poison quietly. It won't kill anyone, it will just paralyze the body. You can see that this cultist is frozen." Zhao Kun said, poking the cultivator's arm. , and sure enough, it didn’t move at all.
Everyone was very surprised and asked: "How can this be restored?"
Zhao Kun said: "We have an antidote."
Immediately, Zhao Kun took out a small porcelain bottle, poured out a small red pill and stuffed it into the mouth of the cultist.
The small pill melts in the mouth, and within a moment, the believer can move freely again.
This change made everyone marvel, and it also made everyone put aside their indignation just now, and felt that this little game was no longer dangerous.
Ji Yutang and Xie Huaichu did not relax their vigilance. Both of them felt that this was not good news. Although it now seems that the poison on these insects, snakes, rats and ants is just ordinary toxins, it also vaguely reveals that the games set up by the Taiping Religion are cruel and bloody.
