Chapter 298: 297 Enthusiastic Senior Tang Mu

~8 min read 1,418 words

The guy who wants my life is finally gone...

Listening to the hurried footsteps moving away in the corridor, the young man with a lazy look on his face slumped his shoulders and let out a long breath of relief.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and used all his strength to forcibly roll a 66% avoidance rate, otherwise he would have been caught by him to help.

According to the probability given by the dice, as a member of the 【Branch】 of the Bureau of Cleaning, as long as he was involved in this Scale-Weighing Sect incident, the probability of being besieged was 66%, the probability of starting a massacre was 66%, the probability of a life-and-death battle with the Holy Spirit was 66%, and even the probability of encountering a True God was directly filled to 66%!

However, what is worth celebrating is that if he were involved in this incident, the probability of being seriously injured would be almost zero, because the mortality rate of participating in this incident is 99%!

Looking at the two six-sided dice with "6" turned upside down, arranged in the shape of "99," Tang Mu, who had lingering fears, stood up from behind the door and patted a zongzi tied up with five flowers and three ropes beside him, saying with a face full of celebration:

"Jerry, we have escaped another disaster this time."

"Umm! Woo! Umm umm!"

"Don't be ungrateful. I am saving you!"

Looking at his good brother who was stuffed with a rag for wiping windows and was glaring at him with anger, and the little golden hair who was also tied tightly beside his good brother, Tang Mu's still handsome face couldn't help but reveal a trace of sadness that was not understood by others, and then he helplessly took out the rag.

"Pah! Damn it! Tang Mu! Damn it!"

After spitting out the gray soil and hair in his mouth, Jerry, whose tongue regained freedom, opened his mouth and directly gave two rounds of heartfelt national curses, then sprayed angrily with a face full of annoyance:

"You said you had something for me to help with, and the result is that your business is to sneak attack your father, and then tie your father up and lock him up?"

"I already said I was saving you, but it was a bit rushed at the time, and there was no time to explain to you."

Sitting on the side of Jerry, Tang Mu explained seriously:

"Did you see it just now? That newcomer was looking for someone to help. If you hadn't been caught by me, you would definitely have been pulled over as a coolie, and then there would be no return!"

"So serious?"

Seeing that Tang Mu didn't seem to be joking, Jerry couldn't help but be startled, and then asked suspiciously:

"Your dice, doesn't it only see a maximum probability of 66%? How can you know there is definitely no return?"

"Because '66%' and '66%' are also different!"

Pointing to the two dice on the table that were "6" facing up but "6" upside down, Tang Mu said with lingering fears:

"It looks like 66% to you now, but 66 upside down is 99%. And the probability represented by those two dice now is the death probability after being involved, so do you understand now why I want to tie you up?"

"……"

After listening to the explanation given by Tang Mu, Jerry's mouth couldn't help but open and close twice, and then his eyes became somewhat complicated:

"What about Hearing Hearing Li Ang and the others? If calculated according to the probability you rolled, wouldn't they..."

"You just take care of yourself!"

After rolling his eyes at his good brother, Tang Mu said unhapp

"Auntie Ai Ma is very powerful! Not only does she have the strongest immortal body below the God-tier, but she also has the 'Pivot of the Dead' which connects to the Dead Realm. Not many people understand death better than her. Even if she really died, she could try to run back. As for that Hearing Li Ang..."

Thinking of the back he saw during the dice-rolling process—black hair, black eyes, thin build, and multiple wings growing from behind—Tang Mu couldn't help but shiver slightly, feeling as if someone was watching him from the void.

Not to mention anything else, that person's future starts at True God, and the feeling he gives me seems even stronger than the Director in her prime. It's not that there's no chance of such a person dying halfway, but it's definitely much smaller than my own. It's not my place to worry about him.

"There's no need to worry about that Hearing Li Ang either... he has quite a few trump cards up his sleeve. In short, he should be able to hold on. In a situation that would be certain death for the two of us, the two of them might actually be able to struggle a bit more."

After giving a vague, ambiguous answer, Tang Mu reached out and patted his good brother's arm, teaching him in an earnest tone:

"There is a proverb in the kingdom across the sea: 'Only if the plate is big enough can the steak be big enough.' With our level, we can't handle this kind of situation, so don't go meddling. Don't end up causing them trouble and losing your life in the process.

And there is another proverb in the kingdom across the sea: 'Fate first, luck second, where you live third, helping others and making friends fourth, reading more books fifth.'"

Regarding this proverb, my understanding is that one must believe in fate. If fate has destined you to get a certain result, then no matter how hard you try, it's useless... Hmm? Why do you keep looking behind me?"

Looking behind him following his good brother's gaze, and meeting the surprised face outside the window glass, Tang Mu couldn't help but shiver, then instinctively looked at the dice on the table.

Sure enough, a layer of imperceptible black Qi was swirling around his two dice. The "Bad Luck" trait he had gained from leaking too much of the future had just silently taken effect...

Bah! This damn fate!

……

"Senior Tang Mu! I'm coming in!"

Amidst the lazy young man's tearful expression, Hearing Li Ang, who had returned wanting to go to Senior Jie Rui's office to see if there were any bombs he could take, pushed the door open with a surprised face and said urgently:

"Senior Auntie Ai Ma is in trouble! There is an ambush at the Chengjin Sect. They invited a Snake Spirit to bite her. She is in great danger now and urgently needs our support! Senior Tang Mu! Uh... what are you two doing?"

"Nothing... just... helping him test an escape anomaly... hehe..."

After telling a dry lie, Tang Mu, whose expression was somewhat flustered, secretly rolled the probability of refusing the invitation while laughing forcefully and rambling:

"That... regarding Auntie Ai Ma's matter, it's not that I don't want to help, it's mainly that according to the probability I rolled, if I take action this time..."

"Clatter"

The sound of dice rolling on the table rang out. Tang Mu looked in the direction of the sound in astonishment and found that a phantom palm had appeared next to his dice at some point, flicked it gently with its finger, changed the face of the dice, and then pointed at him with a warning.

"..."

"Senior Tang Mu?"

After looking back at the two dice on the table with 6 facing up, but both happened to be upside down, Hearing Li Ang turned his head back and asked with some confusion:

"Senior, what probability did you roll this time? Is it the success rate of us rescuing Senior Auntie Ai Ma?"

"..."

Of course it is.

The possibility that after I refuse to help you this time, you will hold a grudge against me and cause me trouble in the future...

After looking at the dice that gave a 99% probability after being flicked, and then looking at Hearing Li Ang's right hand, which was identical to that phantom palm, the unlucky Tang Mu couldn't help but sniff his sour nose and replied with tears in his eyes:

"No, I rolled the probability of me taking action to help... Don't worry, this matter concerns your and Auntie Ai Ma's safety, I will definitely not shirk my duty!"
