Chapter 54: 54 Trump Card
54 Trump Card
(Modified)
Aren't you talking nonsense? Who the hell would want to sell their life to you!
Although he really wanted to refuse like this, the other party's ability was forced purchase. The operation of pulling himself over just now even bought things like "distance." He simply didn't have the ability to refuse.
Looking at the toad that was smiling quite terrifyingly, Li Ang, who had no choice, had to face the dense compound eyes of the other party, bite the bullet and question:
"Selling my life to you... it's not impossible, but the price you give is really too low!"
"Oh?"
Hearing Li Ang's answer, the golden toad, who originally just wanted to tease this human and chat with an "old friend" by the way, tilted his head and asked back with a smile:
"Then how much do you think you should be worth?"
"..."
I think I'm priceless, okay? No matter how much money you give, I don't want to sell it!
However, although this is a fact, looking at the teasing eyes of the golden toad, Li Ang knew that saying so would be of no use, so he finally swallowed this sentence and changed his angle:
"I think... many things cannot be measured by money."
"So you not only question my judgment of value, but even want to question my understanding of this world?"
Hearing Li Ang's words, the golden toad, who had been quite gentle, suddenly turned cold. The huge compound eyes retracted slightly, and the centers of countless small spherical surfaces were aligned with Li Ang, staring at him almost word by word:
"Money is omnipotent."
"From the first shell used as currency, conquering humans with its brightness and beauty, currency and the wealth it represents have become the goal pursued by all intelligent life!
Even not just this small kingdom of yours, down to the mermen in the deepest part of the boundless ocean, up to the aborigines on the back of the moon, every place where intelligent life exists cannot do without omnipotent money.
Only money is the foundation of this world's operation! And your insignificant life is just the most pitiful thing it can exchange for!"
"Alas... forget it, what's the use of me saying this to you?"
After looking at Li Ang, who obviously hadn't refuted immediately but was still thinking about how to talk back, the golden toad shook its head and said with boredom:
"Even if it is a dependent chosen by a Great Demon, it is just a servant in the final analysis. You don't need to understand these things at all, just honestly accept the domination... Come! Let me estimate the price for your insignificant life!"
Accompanied by the golden toad's words, the countless Li Angs reflected in its eyeballs trembled, and then quickly replaced with countless messy new pictures.
Innocent childhood, happy childhood enjoying the knees of parents, crying bitterly after losing parents, followed by large pieces of empty darkness.
And after a large piece of empty dark color, it was the long half a year of lingering on the sickbed with high fever. Because a serious illness spent most of the family's savings, he began to work hard for money.
Painting the walls of the villa in the scorching sun, ordering his thin body to carry bags at the dock, holding a special two-meter-long wiping rod, eating hard to wash the ferry boat blackened by the chimney.
When the river froze and the ships stopped operating in the cold winter, he took over the newspaper stall on the side of the road, sold newspapers shrinking his body in the cold winter, or raised his shoes to disguise his age, mixed into various temporary factories with loose management, and did some miscellaneous work that did not require a resume, earning a little bit of insignificant pocket money...
It is a pity that after more than two years of hard work, the poor little home in the picture not only did not become wealthy, but seemed more and more empty. The girl who flashed by occasionally became paler and paler, coughing more and more seriously, and the two children whose faces could not be seen also became thin together...
"Boring life."
In less than a second,
After watching the full 5,000 days and nights, the golden toad shook its head and was just about to "cut off" the picture, but suddenly caught a glimpse of a bright red hair.
?!!!
That woman?!
Hurriedly drumming its eyes, interrupting the subsequent pictures in time, the golden toad's expression sank slightly, turned its head to look at the sheep head in the shopping bag, and asked with disbelief:
"Damn! You actually cooperated with the people of the Cleanup Bureau?"
"Go go go! What nonsense are you talking about?"
Hearing the golden toad's questioning, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang, who was too downcast to come out and see acquaintances, could no longer pretend.
It saw it trying to stick out its tongue, licked two holes in the shopping bag, revealed its eyes full of anger, glared at the familiar toad in front of it, and roared:
"I didn't cooperate with the people of the Cleanup Bureau! I just stayed there temporarily, and then gave them a little ability as a reward for accepting a few extremely evil sacrifices regularly."
"Actually not even cooperation... are you hired by them? Or... you won't be completely fallen into the hands of the Cleanup Bureau and become their running dog, right?"
"..."
"You ** are the running dog!"
Being poked in the wound, the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang instantly broke its defense, cursing and roaring:
"I'm just staying there temporarily! Temporarily, do you understand? Are the holes on both sides of your bastard head blocked? His*! That is, I haven't slowed down yet, you damn toad, wait for me!"
Heh, running dog!
After glancing at the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang with contempt, ignoring its violent scolding, the golden toad turned its head back, stared at Li Ang with two huge compound eyes, and questioned coldly:
"So... are you from the Cleanup Bureau?"
"That's right!"
Hearing the meaning of the golden toad's words, knowing that it was mostly a mortal enemy of the Cleanup Bureau, Li Ang simply let go, directly picked up the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang and shook it, raised his head and took the initiative to provoke:
"Now although you look down on it, but when you fall into our hands and are also made into an anomalous object, I guarantee that your end will be ten times more miserable than it!"
???
No? You * say it if you want to say it, why take me as an example?
Amidst the Hearing Hearing Heishanyang's curse that suddenly rose eight degrees, the golden toad didn't get angry, but narrowed two huge compound eyes, carefully observed Li Ang's expression, and then tilted its head in surprise.
"You want to provoke me?"
Noticing the muscles suddenly tightened on Li Ang, the huge golden toad smiled, grabbed a large handful of gold wheels from the side, and while pushing these gold wheels in front of it, pushed them toward the man unhurriedly, and speculated:
"Human, you don't seem to think you can run away, but you don't look like you are ready to be killed, and you even dare to take the initiative to provoke me... this is very interesting."
"If I didn't guess wrong, you should still have a trump card strong enough, but you can't control it yourself, or it can only be triggered after being attacked?"
?!!!
Seen through again?
Looking at the toad that saw through his situation with just one pair of eyes, Li Ang's breathing stagnated, and he couldn't help but think of the evaluation given to him by the red-haired Director.
Could it be... I am indeed a person who is easy to understand?
"Hehe, it seems I guessed right."
Looking at the confusion that could not be covered in Li Ang's eyes, the golden toad's mouth couldn't help but curl bigger and bigger, and then pointed to the gold wheels that had piled up into a small mountain in front of him, and said with teasing:
"Sorry, I don't like to attack others rudely with my body, but prefer to buy the life I want to harvest directly through fair and reasonable transactions. Your trump card is afraid it won't come in handy."
"Come, take these 30,000 gold wheels and give me everything you have. For your boring life, this is already the most generous price I can give." ===== CHAPTER 55 =====
