I Was Once a Legend

"Congratulations on successfully passing [Different Degrees - Abyss of Gambling], the points are being settled for you, please wait a moment."

"The settlement is complete, and you have successfully obtained 240 points through [Abyss of Wild Gambling]. It is detected that the use of abnormal energy is illegal, and 700 points will be deducted. Your team's current points are 134."

"More than 700 points have been deducted?" Dong Linhai was stunned. He still remembered that Cui Zuojing only deducted 30 points after recycling kindness in Hameln. Scored a full 700 points.

Originally, before Dong Zheng made weapons, Cui Zuojing spent a lot of points at the weapon dealer for repairing the Tang knife, and suffered such a heavy loss before earning it back. Now the team suddenly became poor.

"It should be targeted." Cui Zuojing said, it is certain that Kether will play tricks on it, and it is absolutely impossible to deduct so much normally.His Fu Zhe's key had been broken in the box, the young man looked at Dong Zheng, finally relaxed his tense nerves, stretched his waist and said, "Go back?"

Dong Zheng's complexion was a bit ugly, and he kept staring at the window covered by the curtains. In the small gap, a faint dark red light was indistinctly revealed, which was not obvious.

He walked forward quickly, opened the curtains, and in an instant, the entire window was displayed in front of everyone, the night outside the window was quietly falling, the setting sun was about to sink below the horizon, and in the faint sky that was about to disappear, a huge full moon loomed In the middle of the night sky, its blood color was so dazzling, a crack appeared on it, gradually deepening and spreading.

"It's broken." Dong Zheng murmured.

"Blood night?!"

There is a mechanical clock in the living room. Cui Zuojing turned his head and walked into the next bedroom. The digital watch on the wall clearly showed the time—December 24, 12th Baili calendar, 8:17.

Today is cleaning night.

They had only been in the box for three days, yet a full ten days had passed outside without knowing it.

On the 8th of every month, when the bloody full moon hangs high in the night sky and breaks into pieces, the cleansing night kicks off, and pilgrims with less than 30 points will be purged.

After the blood contract was lifted, Cui Zuojing officially joined the Wonton Splitter team as a pilgrim. There were six people in the team, and the current points were only 134.

—Only enough for four people.

Cui Zuojing couldn't help swearing a particularly nasty word, he took a deep breath, and said: "Let's not talk about anything else, I wish Kether an early death and early life."

The time they came out was really embarrassing. After the cleansing night officially started, the entire pure white space was closed, and people were not allowed to enter the box again. Night has no meaning.

Xia Qiongyun opened the door with Fu Zhe's key, but when the door opened, the corridor outside appeared, and they couldn't go back to the castle.

This area was completely "locked" and became a hunting ground for the executioners.

"What should we do?" Wang Que asked, "Who is the executioner in this area?"

"It's midnight." The last ray of sky light disappeared below the horizon, and the world was completely shrouded in bloody moonlight. Cui Zuojing took out his mobile phone and logged in to the Pure White Realm APP, applying to withdraw from the team.

Dong Zheng tacitly agreed to Cui Zuojing's application to withdraw from the team, and he handed over the captain's position to Dong Linhai, choosing not to take any property and points, and then quit the team.

"Hey brother, what are you doing!" Dong Linhai, who suddenly became the captain, widened his eyes, "What does this mean!"

There were only four people left in the team. Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng left the team empty-handed. 134 points were just enough for them to spend the night. Putting their phones back in their pockets, Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng looked at each other and said, : "This is the only way right now. It is much better for two people to be targeted than to risk the whole team. Don't worry, Midnight should not be the opponent of me and Dong Zheng."

"I'll be with you." Victor, who had turned back into a cat, jumped onto the back of the sofa and said.

"No, uncle, let's stay here with everyone. Although the executioner is not allowed to hurt pilgrims with enough points, I'm not sure if Midnight will do other bad things while I'm not around. I'm more at ease if you're here .”

Dong Zheng: "Ah Zuo and I will hide outside tonight, and we will come back early tomorrow morning. Don't take it lightly. Stay in the apartment. Uncle is around. Don't dare to attack at midnight."

Victor nodded and said, "If I am against Midnight now, it will never be the same as before."

Lin Hangzhi was worried: "Is it really possible? In my impression... I have never heard of anyone who successfully escaped the punishment of cleaning."

"I'm different from other people. I'm a legend in the Pure White Realm." Cui Zuojing smiled, his confident smile really calmed the restlessness of others, "Don't worry, the midnight of that year was not mine. Opponents, not to mention I control the power of time now, and Dong Zheng has such a big help."

"Xiaoxia lend me the lantern for use. The cat is a psychic. If you have a magic weapon, it will be safer."

Xia Qiongyun pressed the pattern left by the prop on the back of her hand without hesitation, and the lantern appeared in her hand and was handed over to Cui Zuojing.

This is the prop she chose from the clown's shop. Considering that there are not many decent magic weapons in the team, she chose such a thing.

"Psychic?" Although it is not the first time to spend the bloody night on the top of the giant tree, everyone in the bloody night stayed in the castle in advance. As a tyrannical team, it seems that cleaning will never happen to them Dong Linhai asked in surprise, "What do you mean, are there really ghosts?"

"Yes, ghosts can be summoned at midnight." Cui Zuojing smirked, "What? Would you like to provide us with some boy urine? If you still have any?"

Dong Linhai: "Huh???"

He was stunned for a while, scratching his face helplessly under the teasing gazes cast by everyone, and then quickly reacted, pressing his waistband pretending to be shy: "Then what, do you really want it? If you don't dislike it I can pour a little for each of you."

As Dong Linhai said, he was about to untie his belt, Cui Zuojing was turned against a general, so he quickly waved his hands: "Forget it, forget it, you'd better keep it for yourself, in case you meet Ah Piao and get scared and urinate, you can still directly How good it is to nourish it all over."

Everyone laughed, and the tense atmosphere relaxed a lot for a while.

A cat meow was faintly heard outside the window, with a very long ending, and under the blood-colored light, it was so shrill that it made people feel hair-raising.

"Not much to say, it's too late." Cui Zuojing tugged Dong Zheng's arm and said, "Let's go first, you all pay attention to safety."

"You are."

There was no hug, no reluctant farewell and tears, Cui Zuojing and Dong Zheng walked out of the door just like when they went shopping every day.

Because they didn't need it, everyone believed that when the night passed and the first ray of sunlight fell on the earth, the two of them would return to this apartment intact and safe as agreed.

It wasn't until downstairs that Cui Zuojing finally spit out the breath that had been pent up in his throat. The bloody moonlight shone on his face, with an imperceptible tiredness. He looked at Dong Zheng and asked, "Are you afraid?" ?”

"A little bit." It's impossible to say that you are not afraid, after all, he is one of the queen's heirs. Dong Zheng is not sure whether he can withstand the midnight chase with his current strength. He took a deep breath and smiled, "But I'm not alone after all."

Cui Zuojing snorted softly, and the corners of his lips couldn't help rising. He raised his head and quickly kissed Dong Zheng's lips, then turned to look at the black cat who was squatting on the opposite flower bed and watching them.

Xue Yezhong stared at a black cat, as if something was about to happen.

The cat seemed to be just an ordinary cat, and the black pupils in the blue eyes narrowed into a line, and it meowed softly towards them.

Dong Zheng was thoughtful: "Is there a position for us at midnight?"

"Well, so it's only a matter of time before we face each other head-on... How about we go to Heimdall first? I'll take a magic weapon that can cause damage to spirit bodies. It's not safe to only have lanterns and your bell."

The bell can only sense the existence of ghosts to give a warning, and has no attack power. Although the lantern has the function of expelling and revealing, it has no effect on particularly tyrannical spirit bodies. Xia Qiongyun chose it mainly because of its eternal property and The expulsion function is a good auxiliary prop for the entire team.

Magical artifacts accounted for a small proportion of props. The people in the team have not obtained lethal ones, but they are not in a hurry. They have enough information to know the type of box they enter in advance and prepare in advance. Because everyone in the team He is not a brave warrior who has no nerves. Every time he encounters a ghost, he will be frightened for a long time before recovering, so he rarely chooses a supernatural box.

There are some magic weapons stored in Heimdall. If there is a real request, you can rent them in advance. The bell is what Dong Zheng has been renting for self-defense.

"Okay." Dong Zheng also thinks that Cui Zuojing's idea is the most appropriate at present. Under normal circumstances, in order to ensure the personal safety of pilgrims, the world rules of the pure white world do not allow powerful managers to operate in areas other than boxes and special areas. The so-called managers include the successors, as well as the clown and others who are the guides. They are in a state of being suppressed in their daily strength.

So even though Cui Zuojing and his party were regarded as thorns in their eyes, the queen and the others did not directly deal with Cui Zuojing, but kept making trouble for them in the box.

But when the bloody night comes, this rule no longer applies to the executioners in the area.

What they are about to face is midnight in a full state.

Cui Zuojing had already experienced Midnight's strength back then, and he had enough confidence in his own abilities, so he was not too nervous, but Dong Zheng was different. This was the first time he faced an enemy of the heir's level.

You have to be very careful.

Ever since the relationship was confirmed, Dong Zheng often took Cui Zuojing around for fun, and borrowed Beverly's small eDonkey to easily delay other people's affairs, so he saved up his money and bought one, and parked it downstairs in the apartment .

Dong Zheng pushed the cart, Cui Zuojing squatted on the curb and waited. He didn't bring Tang Dao with him when he entered the abyss of gambling, and now he can only be empty-handed, but he has the ability to kill, and it doesn't matter whether he has a serious weapon in his hand. big.

More and more cats emerged from the bushes and looked at the two of them silently. Cui Zuojing didn't even know that there were so many stray cats nearby.

He pulled up a piece of grass to tease the nearest big orange, who looked at him warily and retreated into the bushes.

Cui Zuojing sighed silently, it seems that if you want to play cats freely, you still have to rely on Victor.
