Chapter 378: Rebirth in Paradise, Human Hearts Are Evil
The few people inside saw that the smoke barrier was broken, and their faces showed happy expressions.
They immediately left the range of the big tree.
"Thank you, thank you!"
The man with the beard looked at Shirley and the other three and thanked them repeatedly.
He glanced at the three of them.
When he saw the Mist Fruit in Xue Hai's hand, his eyes suddenly froze, but he quickly covered it up.
"You guys saved us, we will definitely repay you well. I wonder what you guys want?"
said the bearded man.
Shirley waved her hand and said, "Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda without asking for anything in return."
Saying that, he turned around and left.
Li Qingzhou and the others did not stop and followed Shirley forward.
Watching Shirley and the others walk away.
The man with the beard had an uncertain expression on his face.
"Boss, what are you thinking about?"
A short, fat man asked.
"Did you see what the young man had in his hand?" the bearded man said.
"I saw it, it looks like a mist fruit." A woman with a pretty face and a curvy figure said delicately.
"That is indeed a mist fruit. Judging from the quality, it is a top-grade mist fruit. If you sell it, you can sell it for at least one million." The bearded man said.
"I'll go, it's so expensive!"
A skinny man shouted.
"These people are so lucky to be able to step on the Mist Fruit." The short, fat man said with envy.
"We are also very lucky!"
The bearded man said with a cold smile on his face.
"What do you mean, boss?" The thin man also had a sinister smile on his face.
"I just took a look. The pet beasts of those people are only gold-level. But none of us have gold-level pet beasts. We have a numerical advantage against them."
"And looking at those people, they are not very old. I think they are only very strong."
The bearded man touched the beard on his chin and said.
"But is it appropriate for us to do this?" the woman said softly, with a cruel smile on her face.
"Why is it inappropriate? We want to repay them! This world is too cruel and painful. Sending them to the West as soon as possible is their relief, allowing them to escape from the sea of suffering and be reborn in bliss."
The bearded man said righteously.
"Yes, the sea of suffering is boundless, but when you turn around, you will be able to reach the shore." A smile appeared on the short and fat man's face.
"The bliss of rebirth is endless, the joy is endless!" the skinny man said, shaking his head.
"Let's go, they haven't gone far yet."
The bearded man said.
In the mist, Li Qingzhou frowned slightly.
At the last moment, he felt the greedy gaze of the bearded man, and his gaze just fell on Xue Hai's hand.
Although it was only for a moment, it was full of possessiveness.
Xuehai was still stroking the mist fruit at this moment, completely unaware of it.
Li Qingzhou looked at Shirley, who had a smile on her face at the moment.
She was always a kind-hearted woman, and being able to save a few people made her feel very satisfied.
Li Qingzhou shook his head slightly. Shirley was kind-hearted, but the world was cruel. Good people may not be rewarded well, and those who were rescued may not be grateful.
Linghou Taiping's ears twitched, he turned his head slightly and looked behind him.
Li Qingzhou also heard the sound from behind, which was the sound of rapid footsteps.
His four pet beasts are all gold-level, and the physical feedback they give him far exceeds those of Shirley and Xue Hai, so his hearing is also extremely sensitive.
The noisy footsteps from behind became more and more obvious.
Li Qingzhou thought to himself, "I hope it's not those few people. If it's those few people, Shirley's world view may collapse."
He sighed inwardly, pretended not to hear anything unusual, and moved on.
"Sister, do you think the elders of the family will reward us after we go back? We got such a good mist fruit."
Xue Hai said excitedly.
"That's for sure."
Shirley said confidently, "The fog fruit we found is the best one in recent years."
"Yes, maybe grandpa will be happy and give us some reward!" Xuehai said happily.
He has already imagined what it will be like when he returns home.
"Any reward is good. As long as we train hard and be down-to-earth, the family will not treat us badly." Shirley said with a smile.
"Yeah!" Xuehai nodded.
His hand slowly caressed the mist fruit.
At this time, they also heard footsteps behind them.
Xuehai turned to look behind.
The mist there surged, and several vague figures appeared.
It seems someone is coming.
Shirley turned her head and looked behind her.
The expression was very relaxed, and she had already seen the leader, who was the man with beards.
It was the person they had just saved.
"Please ask some young ladies to stay." The bearded man said.
"Are you lost in the forest?" Shirley asked with a smile.
"No, you saved us. We wanted to thank you, so we came with you." The man with a beard said with a smile.
"You're welcome, it's just a little effort." Shirley smiled and waved her hand. Her smile was innocent, still intoxicated with the joy of saving people.
"How can that be? You saved us, so we must report it, otherwise others will say we are ungrateful, don't you think?" The bearded man looked at the three people behind him and asked with a smile.
The other three nodded with a smile and echoed, "Yes, yes."
"You're really welcome!"
Shirley waved her hand embarrassedly, and her smile became even happier.
Xuehai interrupted and said, "Then how are you going to thank us?"
He still held the mist fruit in his hand, looking at the bearded man and others with expectation.
"Living in the world, birth, aging, illness and death, all kinds of pain. Sometimes death is also a kind of relief, so we want to help you and let you go to paradise earlier."
The bearded man said slowly, with a smile on his face, but his eyes were extremely cold.
When Shirley heard this, her smile froze on her face, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
Xue Hai scratched his head and said, "What are you talking about? Why don't I understand?"
"Then let me tell you something easy to understand." The fat man interrupted and said, "Just, please die!"
"What?" Xue Hai exclaimed, obviously he didn't expect this ending.
The short and fat man suddenly raised his hand, and a snake jumped out of his sleeve.
The snake had bright patterns on its body, and it was obviously a poisonous snake with extremely venom.
Silver level 3, five-step poisonous snake.
This change happened too quickly, and several people were unprepared.
Shirley, who was standing in the front, watched a snake open its mouth and pounce on her.
She subconsciously took two steps back, but the snake was too fast and she couldn't avoid it at all.
Her pet, the snow wolf, was also stunned and stayed where it was, not reacting for a while.
The bearded man and the short and fat man looked at Shirley coldly, with a smile of success on their faces.
However, just when the venomous snake was about to bite Shirley, a golden figure suddenly flashed by.
The venomous snake suddenly stopped.
