The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 839 - 566: Is It Worth Risking Your Life for a Few D
"Squeak squeak squeak!"
The Weaving Spider Lady raised her forelegs, pointing at Liu Zheng’s tentacles, and then at the cloak.
"Squeak squeak squeak?"
Liu Zheng couldn’t tell if it was an illusion, but he felt like it rolled its eyes.
"You an to say, you have so many hands, and I have so many hands, so why can’t I sew a cloak?"
He guessed at the Weaving Spider Lady’s aning.
"Squeak!"
The Weaving Spider Lady nodded.
"But they’re not the sa, are they? Each profession has its specialty. I may not be able to sew clothes, but when it cos to massage, I’m as swift as the wind, as silent as a forest."
Liu Zheng said proudly.
"Squeak squeak?"
The Weaving Spider Lady pointed at his Legendary Takeout Box.
The aning was obvious, weren’t you a delivery man? How co your specialty is massage?
"You don’t understand, delivering takeouts is a comprehensive job. Only by mastering various skills that can move the custors, can you make them willingly or motionlessly accept the delivery."
Liu Zheng said in a serious tone.
"Squeak squeak?"
The Weaving Spider Lady scratched its head, looking like it sensed sothing was off but couldn’t figure out what.
"Just learn, there’s a lot of knowledge in it."
He waved his hand and said.
"Squeak squeak."
The Weaving Spider Lady nodded dumbfoundedly.
"By the way, where’s my coat and hat?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"Squeak squeak!"
The Weaving Spider Lady spat out two silk cocoons.
It retracted the spider silk, revealing the fully nded coat and hat inside.
"Very good. Nicely done."
He picked up the coat and hat, and patted the Weaving Spider Lady’s head with his tentacle as encouragent, which startled it to shrink back at once.
"Am I that scary?"
Liu Zheng looked at the Weaving Spider Lady disappearing into the darkness with so speechlessness.
Obviously, Salmon and Vampire Sister all enjoyed it very much.
Having nothing else to do, he lay down on the haystack and started reading the newspaper.
As he read, he fell asleep.
When Liu Zheng woke up, it was already the next morning, the tenth day he had been in the tropolis.
"So comfortable."
He stretched lazily before opening his eyes, and then saw Niu Ma sleeping soundly on the haystack.
"Huh?"
When Liu Zheng looked at himself again, he found a huge hoof print imprinted on his Legendary delivery man vest.
A sense of foreboding welled up inside him, and he quickly pulled out his sawtoothed butcher knife to use as a mirror.
Sure enough, there were two incomplete hoof prints on both sides of his face, and his cheeks were swollen high.
"Hiss~"
Only now did the pain start to kick in belatedly.
Liu Zheng was both speechless and impressed.
How did Niu Ma manage to beat him up without waking him, and even moved to another spot?
"Oh right, the horse whip."
He looked at Niu Ma’s lower half, only to see it clamping its butt tightly, not visible at all.
"Tsk, we’re all grown n, who are you guarding against?"
He smirked and took out his phone to check the ti, just 6 AM.
After a mont’s thought, he decided to call Yangzi.
Since he got a day off, planning the trip to the Ten Thousand Great Mountains should be put on the agenda, better prepare early than waste ti.
"What’s up?"
Yangzi’s voice still sounded so full of energy.
"So spirited, I thought you might still be asleep at this hour."
Liu Zheng chuckled.
"So custors just love morning baths."
Yangzi explained.
"What about your sleep then?"
"I just get so shuteye when I can, what else can I do?"
Yangzi said helplessly.
"Really hard on you. How about I get you a job in the city? Or if you want to stay on Bathhouse Street, you can work at ’Gaga Bathhouse’."
He suggested.
"Anywhere’s about the sa in this line unless the business is bad. You don’t have to worry about , as long as my brother-in-law is around, I might just be a bit tired, nothing much else."
Yangzi shook her head.
She’s not the type who likes relying on others; otherwise, she would’ve asked her sister to get her a city job long ago.
"Did Granny Tang give you any trouble afterward?"
"Got whipped ten tis, took the dicine Mr. Batiao gave , and I’m almost recovered."
Yangzi replied.
"Good. Are Mr. Batiao and the others doing well?"
"They’re all fine. Oh, Mr. Batiao said if you still know how to call back, he wanted to tell you he needs to find you."
Yangzi rembered to add.
"Is it urgent?"
"Doesn’t look urgent."
"Then let him wait a bit. By the way, did your sister talk to you about your brother-in-law possibly transferring to another departnt?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"She did, and she said it’s thanks to your help."
Yangzi’s lips curled into a slight smile.
It was the first ti she sized up a man, and her judgnt turned out pretty good.
"It’s the least I could do for family. But the Border Control Bureau is quite dangerous, and its influence on the Hundred Ghosts is limited. You should prepare early."
He gently reminded Yangzi.
"If I stay with the Hundred Ghosts, would it help you?"
Yangzi paused for a mont and asked.
"Yes, but not much."
Liu Zheng answered truthfully.
Although asking Yangzi for help would definitely be more reassuring, the Deputy Minister, Shi San Yao, and Mr. Batiao were not out of the question either.
Besides, apart from the Stone Essence, he currently didn’t have any matters related to the Hundred Ghosts.
"Rather than having you spy for , it’s more helpful to have you in a better job and life, because that’s the reason I’m staying in the tropolis."
Liu Zheng continued.
If it weren’t for so unfinished karma in the tropolis, he would’ve bolted long ago; who would want to stay in this pit of pits?
"Do you say this to all the girls?"
"No, I’ve only said this to you."
He shook his head.
"But to anyone who’s good to , I have this attitude."
