The veiled woman slowly lifted her black veil towards Zhang Zi. Zhang Zi almost fainted when he saw her.
There was a long scar on the woman's left cheek, like a disgusting centipede, extending all the way to the corner of her mouth. The muscle on the left corner of her mouth was pulled up, causing her entire mouth to become a little crooked.
It turned out to be an extraordinary but extremely ugly woman! No wonder she wanted to mask her face! Zhang Zi's heart froze.
Her almond-shaped eyes stared at his face as if she had seen through his thoughts.
"Why? Do you regret it?"
He quickly averted his gaze from her face and yawned exaggeratedly to hide the shock and disappointment in his heart.
"No…no! I'm just…tired now and want to go back to sleep!”
His reaction was just as she had expected! Maid Zheng lowered her eyelashes and glanced at the box in his hand. She did not make things difficult for him. The corners of her mouth curled up and revealed a cold smile.
"Then we'll do as you say!"
When Zhang Zi heard this, he felt as if he had been pardoned. He quickly left as if he was avoiding the plague.
As he walked, he thought to himself that if he wanted such an ugly woman to be his girlfriend, everyone would definitely laugh at him. Where would he put his face?
Sigh, it's best if he doesn't see her again. Anyway, he already has so many pearls in his hands. Even without her help, he doesn't have to worry about not being able to pass!
The woman stood rooted to the ground like an icicle, her eyes covered with a layer of frost as she coldly watched Zhang Zi's back as he walked away.
A wave of sadness surged into her heart. She could already feel that this man was anxious to escape from her. He was not even interested in asking her name, nor did he allow her to ask for his name. He was scared away by her terrifying face!
She wanted to cry but had no tears. She said to herself hatefully,
"Damned rock! Damn it!"
She raised her head and let out a long sigh of relief at the sky. She lowered her head weakly and let the tears in her eyes fall to the ground. After a long time, she raised her head. There were no tears in her wide almond-shaped eyes, only a ball of resentment. She gritted her teeth and said,
"If he dares to go back on his word, I'll make sure he doesn't live a good life!”
She covered her face with the black veil again, turned around, and slowly walked towards the control center.
At this moment, the Mudmen in the control center were like ants that had their nest collapsed. They were in a mess!
The mudmen gathered here surrounded Wei Zi. Some were crying, some were chattering, and some were making a racket.
Wei Zi, on the other hand, was extremely busy. He lowered his head and counted boxes after boxes of pearls.
In the distance, Maiden Zheng stood behind a stone pillar in the corridor and peeked at the situation in the control center.
She seemed to have already seen Wei Zi's tragic end-he would be eliminated.
In fact, she was not very concerned about his fate. After all, she had seen too many mud people like him.
At the beginning, this kind of person was lucky enough to become a small leader. He was in charge of more than a hundred people and had a little bit of power. He thought that he was great and did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. Who knew that in the end, he would die more miserably than his subordinates!
Of course, she knew very well that the gale last night had ended the lives of many fragile Dust Men. At the same time, it would eliminate a group of Mud Men who were delusional enough to enjoy the fruits of their labor. The result would be that the strong would become stronger and the weak would become weaker!
At the end of the deadline, perhaps less than half of the Mudmen would be left. This way, the leader would not be able to pass the test and climb to a higher level. He would stay here forever until his life ended.
Thinking of this, compared to so many people who had a fate worse than hers, her unbalanced heart temporarily obtained a little comfort.
She would not be like them, waiting to die in fear. She wanted to control her own fate and the fate of all the lives in this tower!
Yes, she wanted to rule everything here! Prove to that hateful old walnut that she was not a weakling!
One after another, Mudmen poured into the control center and cried to Wei Zi.
As soon as Aoki walked into the control center, she sat on the side weakly. Her face was filled with sadness, disappointment, and anxiety. Tears flowed out of her eyes like broken beads. She sobbed and muttered to herself,
"What should we do? There were only 300 or so pearls left, and he couldn't pass the test! What should we do?"
Some of the frustrated Mudmen were also complaining.
"In just one night, the number of pearls in my box has decreased greatly. There are only about 400 pearls left. I'm afraid we're going to die!"
"Mine too! It hasn't even been half of the time, and there aren't many beads left under my control. Aren't I just waiting for death here?”
"I'm really unwilling to be eliminated so quickly!”
"Quickly think of a way!"
“……”
Wei Zi looked at the grief-stricken Huizi and listened to everyone's complaints. His heart was burning with anxiety.
To be honest, this was the first time he had faced such a sudden incident and he didn't know what to do.
Just now, he had roughly counted. There were only seventy-five mud men with more than five hundred Miao Pearls in their chests. The others were unfortunate and had already faced the outcome of elimination. Among them, including himself, would also face the same tragic outcome.
However, with his stubborn personality, he would not give up so easily! He believed that as long as the deadline was not up, there would be opportunities and hope. He would still do his best to fight for it.
He checked all the boxes again and found that there were still three people's boxes that had not been counted. Those three people were Zhang Zi, Wei Zi, and You Zi.
He wondered why they were still nowhere to be seen when the sun was already high above their heads.
He looked around, but he still couldn't find the three people. In the end, his gaze fell on Hui Zi's box.
Huizi lowered her head and looked at the remaining pearls in the box. She was sobbing softly for the fate of the pearls and for her own future. Tears flowed down her delicate face and fell drop by drop into the box and onto the pearls.
The tears immediately covered Miao Zhu with a layer of crystal clear water film, making her look even more crystal clear and a little white.
He walked over and picked up a tear-covered pearl from her box. He looked at it.
As if it was destined, through this pearl, he happened to see a dusty woman walking out from under a luxuriant tree. She raised her head and smiled shyly at him, like a peach blossom blooming in spring.
Wei Zi's heart trembled slightly. He was somewhat intoxicated as he stared at her.
Huizi, who had tears in her eyes, stopped crying. Seeing that he was in a daze, she moved her head forward and saw the delicate and delicate girl.
Seeing Wei Zi's dazed look, she felt as if she had knocked over a vinegar bottle. Her heart was sour. She reached out and snatched the pearl from his hand.
"It's already this time, and you still have the leisure to do so. You'd better think of a way quickly!”
Wei Zi's face turned a little red from Huizi's words, and he hurriedly defended himself,"
"I…I'm not looking at her…"
"Aren't you looking at her? I saw it all!"
His face was red all the way to his neck, and it was difficult for him to explain himself. He stammered,
"No, no…I was looking at her, but I…I found something interesting!”
"What is it?" Aoki's jealousy grew, and she pouted her lips as she asked. His face was red, which meant that he felt that he had done something wrong, or that he was guilty!
Wei Zi picked up the pearl again and held it in front of Hui Zi. He pinched it and said,"
"Your tears have covered this pearl with a layer of water film. Look-isn't this pearl whiter than before? Stronger?"
Huizi took the pearl suspiciously and squeezed it before breaking into a smile."
"It's true! "I didn't expect tears to protect Miaozhu…" Hui Zi shouted excitedly.
At this moment, Zheng walked out from behind the pillar in the corridor and slowly walked into the control center. Under everyone's gaze, she walked all the way to Wei Zi's side and continued Hui Zi's conversation.
"I see-not only your tears of pity, but also your hard work can nourish and protect the pearls in your hands! Only by putting in the effort could one reap the rewards!”
Everyone's eyes were on her, and Wei Zi also looked at her in surprise."
"It's you? Since you know so much, why didn't you tell us earlier?”
"Hmph, why? There was once a hateful old walnut who said that one could only rely on themselves to explore the journey of a person's life. All the hardships and dangers on the road could only be borne by oneself. No one would bear it for you, and no one would tell you what would happen in the future and how to walk! Even if I know more than you, I can still not say it!”
"But you've already said it, which means you want to help us, right?”
"Hehe, don't think too highly of me! Don't think too highly of yourself!"
When Wei Zi heard this, he immediately realized that she was not someone to be trifled with. He had to quickly get more information from her mouth and sincerely said to her,
"I can see that you're a good person. As long as you give us some pointers, I'll do anything for you!”
Zheng Nu looked at Wei Zi with a faint gaze-he was looking at her sincerely!
A trace of guilt crept into her cold heart. She really couldn't bear it!
He sighed inwardly. This silly tree was not rotten wood that could not be carved. For everyone, in order to pass the test, he was willing to give up everything. Unfortunately, that stone was no longer in his hands!
Her heart softened. She felt compassion for him.
"As long as you want to do it, it's not difficult, but it's not easy either.”
Someone in the crowd whispered,"
"What? In that case, do you want me to shed tears and sweat in front of these pearls all day long? I'm afraid I can't do it!"
Some people didn't believe it and questioned,"
"Do tears and sweat matter? In my opinion, it's mainly luck, isn't it? Someone didn't shed any tears or sweat, but he still held 500 pearls in his hand…"
When the woman heard this, she immediately snorted with displeasure,
"Heh, no wonder someone was eliminated! It wasn't difficult to rely on luck to pass a stage, but to pass many stages and survive, other than luck, one had to rely more on one's comprehension!”
"Comprehension?" Wei Zi was puzzled.
"Yes, wisdom! " As Mudmen, your position is a bit higher than that of the Dustmen, but it's not that great. Don't always think of putting on airs in front of the Dustmen. You'd better remove the threshold of your higher realm as soon as possible so that the better Dustmen can enter freely!" Even if there is only one pearl left in your box, there is still a glimmer of hope before the deadline! I've said what I should say, and I've also said what I shouldn't say. You guys think about it yourselves!”
After Zheng Nv finished speaking, she was like seven fairies walking to her mother's house, coming in the clouds and going in the fog.
Her words were like enlightenment, allowing many people present to understand what to do.
Wei Zi walked to Huizi's chest and said,"
" Let my sweat drip on your pearls…"
"Okay, but wait until you're so busy that you're sweating!”
As she spoke, she hurriedly reached into the box and secretly placed the white pearl at the bottom of the corner of the box.
