Chapter 288 I choose the third path
“How did you brainwash them?”
After Xiao Qianchuan said this, Shi Lei still had a smile on his face, but the big bellies around him all glared at him.
One of the women, whose belly was quite large but whose face looked rather haggard, stood up while supporting herself with the help of her belly.
"What do you know? We all volunteered to get pregnant."
More and more people came out of the earthen house and stood in front of the woman, looking at the uninvited guest with unfriendly faces.
Seeing that Xiao Qianchuan had been holding the hilt of the knife tightly, Shi Lei quickly stood between the two sides and flattered the haggard-looking woman.
"Ah Ci, just lie still and don't move! Your legs are so swollen. I'll come back later to massage them for you. Be obedient!"
He turned around and pushed Xiao Qianchuan to the other side of the giant fetus.
"Come on, come on! I'll find you a place to rest, and then we can sit down and talk."
Xiao Qianchuan glanced at the woman's legs which were swollen due to pregnancy. Seeing that she was trembling and could barely stand, he did not stimulate her any further.
None of the little ghosts he had sent out before had come back to look for him. Xiao Qianchuan felt that the fetal soil here was very dense, and if there was any news, it would be most convenient to wait here.
Shi Lei took Xiao Qianchuan to a hollowed-out forest of fetal soil and pointed at something at random.
"This area is all empty, you can live wherever you want."
Seeing that the person was standing there without moving, he went over first, walked to the nearest earthen house, sat down, and patted the people beside him.
Although Xiao Qianchuan could sense that there was no trap here, the fishy smell became stronger the closer he got to the fetal soil.
He did not go into the adobe house, but sat cross-legged at the entrance of the cave where ventilation was better.
The soft ground fit his buttocks well and was not painful, but Xiao Qianchuan felt uncomfortable all over when he sat on it.
Shi Lei moved his butt towards the cave entrance and leaned against the wall of the fetal soil, looking relaxed. His tone was also weak, like a casual chat after dinner.
"Whether you believe it or not, the people here really do voluntarily get pregnant with ghost babies. Every time they give birth to a child, they can save a ghost baby. The more children they give birth to, the more favorability they will get from NPCs, the stronger their abilities will be, and the longer they will be able to survive here."
Shi Lei sighed and said, "Hey! It's all for survival!"
Xiao Qianchuan changed his sitting position to reduce his contact with the ground.
"But those ghost babies are not completely obedient and can't be tamed easily."
For example, Qiao Yuanyuan's child ate the man she was boarding with alive.
Hearing the other party say this, Shi Lei spread his hands helplessly.
"Yes! It is not uncommon for people to snatch someone else's conceived ghost fetus. That's why I, as a law enforcer, am needed to administer justice. But everyone has good intentions after all, and they all want to save the ghost baby."
"Only when all these things are liberated can we leave. It doesn't matter who the guy who becomes a god is. We just want to leave this hell."
Shi Lei sat up slowly, his expression gradually becoming serious.
"So, new guy, answer me honestly."
"Have you really killed any living being in this Nine Abysses?"
Xiao Qianchuan understood the other party's concerns and also understood what the role of "law enforcer" was.
This time he did not avoid the question, but answered it frankly.
"Me too."
Hearing this, Shi Lei burst into laughter.
Xiao Qianchuan could almost see the other person's small throat from the wide-open mouth.
"You! Hahahaha..."
Shi Lei smiled and shook his head, "You are different from me."
Xiao Qianchuan didn't find it funny at all, "Why is it different?"
"Hahaha! Just now when you saw that man being besieged by everyone, you still wanted to go up and rescue him. But I'm different."
Shi Lei still smiled.
He spoke the most cruel and ruthless words in a very lazy tone and in an understated manner.
"And I will watch from the sidelines until someone accidentally kills the man, and then I will execute the murderer."
The corners of his lips gradually closed, leaving only a slight arc, and there was a hint of subtle loneliness in Shi Lei's tone.
"We are different, yet extremely similar. We have both killed and can never get out. We are doomed to remain in this hell forever, or die in it."
He looked at Xiao Qianchuan and suddenly said seriously: "Now I give you two choices."
Xiao Qianchuan felt uncomfortable no matter how he sat, so he simply put the knife under his buttocks and didn't pay much attention to what the person in front of him said.
"You said."
When Shi Lei saw the other party put down the knife on his own initiative, he became less vigilant.
"First, you can choose to become a law enforcer like me and help those players who still have a chance to leave to liberate their ghost babies."
"Second, you can also choose to be liberated sooner, and I will save you."
When Xiao Qianchuan heard the second sentence, he finally regained some of his attention.
Shi Lei sat up straight, adjusted his body to a position where he could stand up and attack at any time, and spoke slowly.
"Now, tell me, what is your choice?"
Xiao Qianchuan did not answer, but asked: "Are you sure their approach is correct?"
Shi Lei smiled, "What else? People must have hope to survive!"
"Actually, your life is very tiring, isn't it?" Xiao Qianchuan suddenly stood up, looked down at the man who was shaking his head and smiling bitterly, and said sympathetically.
"How about I choose the third way. How about I save your soul?"
Shi Lei also stood up and walked out of the earth house. The smile on his face did not diminish, but became even happier. However, the murderous intent in his eyes could not be concealed.
"Hahaha! Interesting. But no! My wife is waiting for me to go back and massage her legs! It's not good to ask you to do it for me, right? Otherwise, you'd better bear the pain or die."
Blue light condensed in Shi Lei's hand, and a gun instantly appeared, pointing directly at Xiao Qianchuan's brow.
Xiao Qianchuan was a little dazed.
It was a police pistol, the same style he had seen on Ling Rizhao.
Large caliber, powerful, and strong recoil.
In the past, Ling Rizhao had taught him step by step how to aim and how to use it.
But Xiao Qianchuan always couldn't control his aim well and even had trouble hitting the target.
Now that the person who taught him how to use a gun is no longer around, Xiao Qianchuan has become proficient in using all kinds of firearms and can hit the ten rings every time.
He suddenly felt that the knife in his hand was not so useful anymore.
Now he really wants the other person's gun.
Even though you know that the weapon is derived from the opponent's skill, you can't take it away or steal it.
Even if he kills the other person, the gun can only exist in his hand for a short moment.
He also wanted to get it, wanted to hold it in his hands, and wanted to trace it with his fingertips.
He wanted it madly.
Thinking of going crazy.
"Give me your gun, please?"
Xiao Qianchuan's polite and restrained question made the person on the other side look slightly stunned, but the other party quickly responded with a smile.
"No, I can't give you the gun! But I can give you the bullets."
The murderous intent stirred the sticky air, and the breathing of both men became heavy.
At this tense moment, suddenly a man in the distance was running towards this side, holding his stomach and looking anxious.
"Brother Shi! Go back soon! Sister-in-law..."
Before the man could finish his words, he tripped, stumbled forward and fell, lying on the ground for a long time without being able to get up.
