Eighty-seven, Cheng Xi
The room with only one person was very quiet, and Cheng Xi could clearly hear the sound of the clock hanging on the wall walking.
Tick, tick.
The sound was in an orderly manner, which contrasted with Cheng Xi's inner heart.
At the specific time at present, the pointer of the clock hour hand has approached the tenth, and the pointer of the minute hand has also surpassed the seventh. Noting this, Cheng Xi couldn't help but think of sadly again: I should have persisted just now!
Although she was reluctant, Cheng Xi had to admit that at that moment, she was indeed frightened by Zhou Ren's final threat!
It’s really not her fault. Who made the video I watched last night so scary?
After watching the bloody video condensed within two hours, Cheng Xi had almost never had a good sleep all night. When he woke up this morning, his mind was filled with the scenes in the video.
So when Zhou Ren smiled and took this as a threat, Cheng Xi was stunned for a moment!
Her self-proclaimed smart mind turned into a cloud of mud and could not think about anything. She had originally been determined that even if she died, she would not fulfill Zhou Ren's wishes. She didn't know where to fly... Almost in a daze, she helped Zhou Ren, Hunter, and Niu Dong open a spare entrance...
It was not until more than half an hour after the three of them left that Cheng Xi, who was scared and sweated, slowly regained his ability to think.
But when it's time to go, it's really too late!
...
The past has passed, and no matter how much regret it is, it will be useless.
After returning from fear, Cheng Xi's consistent ability to think calmly gradually played its role.
First, let go of Zhou Ren and the other three conceal their intelligence, and kidnap and coerce all kinds of bold and arbitrary actions, and do not mention whether they are right or wrong. Since as the assistant of the guardian of this city, Cheng Xi could not ignore this matter and ignore it.
Even Zhou Ren and Hunter have strong confidence in what they are going to do next. But Cheng Xi's heart is always pessimistic about their risk consequences.
Needless to say, just knowing it is a trap and having to go forward is a typical brave and unscheming behavior! And once they have an accident... the consequences will definitely be like the domino effect, causing a series of adverse effects... completely unimaginable!
So Cheng Xi believes that she has the responsibility to avoid such a scene!
And now, if you work hard, you may still have time...
Cheng Xi took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down completely, and began to carefully look at the room again.
This is a luxurious room in a three-star hotel. Cheng Xi is located in the corner near the window. Her current situation is actually very bad. Not only are her hands tied behind the chair, but her feet are firmly tied to the chair by the damn Hunter before leaving. This is a very indecent position, but it also perfectly limits Cheng Xi's ability to move. Hunter fixed her tui at a height that is neither up nor down. No matter how hard Cheng Xi tried, her toes could not touch the ground... So, she sat on this soft-up chair, and it was impossible to move half an inch!
Of course, ropes alone cannot limit Cheng Xi.
Although she did not participate in the battle, Hao Lai was also a summoner. Cheng Xi had more or less a few of some demons with special purpose. As long as she could summon them, Cheng Xi would restore her freedom, it would only take a minute!
But, Cheng Xi is now in a state where he cannot "connect" to the spiritual world.
It’s because the incense candle is burning next to the laptop!
Because considering that this trip might face the wanted summoners, the headquarters specially gave them such precious magical materials before Zhou Ren and the others arrived. The only effect of this incense candle is that it can temporarily cut off the connection between the summoners and the spiritual world during the burning period. I originally thought that it would allow Wende and the others to achieve unexpected results when dealing with the wanted summoners.
But now it's good...
Zhou Ren's few hún eggs actually used this thing to completely block the possibility of Cheng Xi summoning the demon!!
When I remembered that before Niu Dong left, he lit the damn incense candle and laughed so harmlessly that people and animals said, "I believe you know this thing too. So don't do stupid things after we leave - just wait quietly, and at most eleven o'clock, you will be able to leave freely."
Cheng Xi hated that the earth was itchy!
She knew that she could not count on the devil and something, so she could only find another way to see if she could get out of this dilemma.
He was rejected by calling for help. Cheng Xi's mobile phone was confiscated by Zhou Ren before entering this room. But this hotel also uses a wall-mounted landline! The microphone that was within reach in the past was completely a height that Cheng Xi could only look up to. As long as she could never stand up from this chair, she would never be able to reach that thing!
(It seems that it's all...)
My eyes swept the whole room a few times and finally landed next to the TV. Perhaps because of the luxurious room, the hotel actually placed a set of tea sets for making kung fu tea there.
(…If you use them, you may be able to do it!)
Cheng Xi made up her mind and began to swing her body left and right. She forced her to shake the wooden chair. The amplitude was very small at first, but soon, the chair at one end reached the level of off-ground. Her intention was very simple. After the swing of the chair exceeded a limit, under the combined effect of habitual weight and Cheng Xi, the wooden chair inevitably fell down to the side!
Although she was prepared in her heart, Cheng Xi was still hurt by the fall! She couldn't help but exclaim, and her left hand, which was pressed against the back of the chair, suddenly felt pain, and she completely lost consciousness. Cold sweat suddenly appeared. Cheng Xi briefly evaluated: Maybe it was a fracture, right? She ignored it. She began to act again, wanting to move to the TV cabinet with the chair.
It was also thanks to Hunter not tying her body completely to the wooden chair, and the back and the wooden chair still had space to move, which gave Cheng Xi the possibility of achieving his goal.
But relying on the strength of the waist and abdomen, it is extremely difficult to move with the connected wooden chair while lying on the side! Even if it was an adult man, he might not be able to do this. Not to mention, the arm that was always pressed on the ground was still hurting unforgettably because of her constant movement!
But Cheng Xi gritted his teeth and persevered!
Although I thought about giving up more than once, I finally persevered!
Even though he moved very slowly, it took Cheng Xi more than ten minutes to move to it at just two meters.
But after all, she came to the TV cabinet!
The only thing to do now is to just put the tea set down.
But this is not easy. It is easy for Cheng Xi to fall down, but it is impossible to get up again. Now she is lying on the ground with a chair. If she wants to get off the tea set, the only way is to use the power of her waist and abdomen to hit the TV cabinet like she moved here.
Dong-dong-dong-dong.
It's natural that the sound is not louder than the sound of knocking. Not to mention moving here, it's already taken Cheng Xi's most of his strength. Even if there is no such thing, just relying on the movement amplitude of up to a few centimeters each time before, how much force can her move produce?
Dong-dong-dong-dong.
No matter how much she hit her head, the cabinet would not move at all.
Dong-dong-dong-dong.
Cheng Xi gradually realized that he had achieved his expected goal, but he had no intention of stopping his movements.
Dong-dong-dong-dong.
The impact continued, and Cheng Xi's head was already numb. Just mention it again, the same was true for her arm.
Dong-dong-dong-dong.
The sound was still ringing, and there was no sign of stopping.
Such paranoia is not like Cheng Xi's actions. The impression she gave in the past was always calm and heavy. Cheng Xi should not do such futile actions. If Wende knew what she did now, he would definitely be quite surprised.
In fact, even Cheng Xi himself was a little confused and didn't understand what the meaning of persistence and hard work was...
Is it because of the safety of Zhou Ren, Hunter and Niu Dong?
But before that, Cheng Xi had already made all the efforts he could do. The other party was both an adult and was not the first day when he became a summoner to take risks... Even if something really happened, no one would blame Cheng Xi.
So are the adverse consequences caused by Zhou Ren and his team's adventures?
But before this, Cheng Xi had considered this issue carefully. He realized that the situation was indeed difficult, but it was not irreversible...
So, why is this kind of effort that you have to persist even though you know you can’t do it?
Gradually, a figure emerged in Cheng Xi's heart.
Just like every summoner has his own reasons to become a summoner and is willing to take risks. Cheng Xi is naturally no exception - even if she is just an auxiliary logistics staff - but the possibility of life being directly at risk is far more than that of ordinary people, and other professions are an indisputable fact.
Even if there is a generous reward as compensation, in fact, according to Cheng Xi's family background, this job is not needed at all. Not to mention, according to her ability, even if she engages in other professions, she may not be able to reach the same level.
He has never mentioned it to anyone, and Cheng Xi himself is very clear about the reason why he became a summoner and joined it.
Her past is actually similar to Zhou Ren, but there is a very obvious difference. In the disaster caused by the summoner and the demon, Zhou Ren lost his lover forever and changed his love, while Cheng Xi was safely rescued and gained a vision.
Of course the target is the summoner!
It was precisely in order to get close to him that she resolutely gave up her original job, accepted many incredible things, and finally joined the headquarters.
She moved carefully towards the target step by step, and the distance from that person became no longer far away.
However... just when this huā was about to bear fruit... it suddenly withered!
Adventure is the theme of the summoner's experience, and dangers are always with each other. But before that moment came, Cheng Xi never thought: such a disaster was so close to him!
Just a momentary carelessness will bring about eternal separation between heaven and man.
Such an ending was unacceptable to Cheng Xi, and he hated himself for this... He could not keep the man before he bid farewell...
Annoyance and regret became Cheng Xi's whole story at that time.
But it gradually faded over time.
Looking at himself again, Cheng Xi also made new changes because of such a past.
Just like Zhou Ren hated the evil demons who did evil because of his own experience. Cheng Xi also actively devoted himself to work. The past cannot be pursued, but with his own efforts to avoid things like that, Cheng Xi can do!
She became one of the most outstanding assistants without knowing it. With her efforts, many proposals related to the summoner became a reality. Therefore, the indirect benefit of the summoner... is even more incomprehensible...
Yes, this is Cheng Xi's ideal. Even if it makes people feel innocent when they say it, it is indeed what she thinks. Even if Zhou Ren, Hunter, Niu Dong and others have made such excessive actions towards Cheng Xi before this, in her heart... she still doesn't want them to have an accident while being angry...
Dong-dong-dong-dong.
Lying on her side in front of the TV cabinet, according to Cheng Xi's angle, she could not see the clocks on the wall. But with her perception, she also realized that it was close to ten o'clock. There was not much time left, and she bumped into the cabinet more and more anxiously.
Dong-dong-dong-dong.
Perhaps it was an illusion, in the next second, she found that the voice seemed to be a little louder. This discovery surprised Cheng Xi and worked harder.
Dong-dong-dong-dong!
The sound was a little louder, but it was not from the cabinet. Cheng Xi was a little stunned and turned his neck with difficulty.
Bang--!!
The next moment, the room opened suddenly, Wende strode into it and saw Cheng Xi's embarrassed figure, "Sister Cheng, are you okay!!"
