Chapter 538 The solution to the problem
The corridor is not long, about one hundred meters long, but because there is no light, it gives people an extremely deep feeling.
Along the way, the pirates kept pounding the metal walls, trying to find a weak place, but they were disappointed. The metal coins in the entire corridor were very thick, and there was no echo when they hit, which was extremely dull.
In fact, everyone is not hoping because this corridor is for colorful shellworms, and it must be very strong, otherwise the destructive colorful shellworms would have escaped long ago.
When crossing the corpse of the colorful shell bug, someone tried to summon the mecha, but unfortunately, the space button in this place was still interfered with. Not to mention the summoning mecha, even the space button that just puts items cannot be used.
Everyone walked along the corridor to an empty cabin. The structure of the cabin was very strange. In addition to the iron wall, there were iron pillars larger than human legs. The gap between the iron pillars was smaller, giving people a very strange feeling.
There was a disgusting smell in the cabin, and the iron walls and iron casts were also bumpy and rusty, giving people a feeling of vicissitudes of the age...
...
There is no way out.
Everyone checked the cabin and confirmed that there were iron pillars and iron walls around it, and there was no weak spot at all. In fact, even if the iron walls had weak spots, they could not get out of the gap between the iron pillars.
"Why did you kill that bald fat man?" the middle-aged man complained to Zou Zichuan.
"Huh... By the way, you haven't answered me yet. Why did they have to choose a lady to go into the iron cage to fight the colorful shellworm?" Lan Ji suddenly remembered that Zou Zichuan had not answered this question.
"Because they felt the enthusiasm of the audience, he decided to let the lady into the iron cage." Zou Zichuan said with a blank expression.
"What's the meaning?"
"When the lights in the Beast Fighting Hall are focused on the lady, the organizer just wants to see the audience's reaction. If the audience reacts enthusiastically, then they will choose the lady to play. If the audience does not respond enthusiastically, they will agree to the lady's replacement. Of course, there will definitely be a large fee..."
"How do you know?" asked the female pirate leader, who was called Miss.
“Presumed.”
“…”
"Then I ask you, why did you kill the bald fat man and the beard? If you can hijack him, we will not be trapped here." The middle-aged man was still resentful of Zou Zichuan's sudden injury.
"The reason for killing the fat man is very simple. If I hadn't killed him at that time, at this moment, he would have been sitting in another room smoking a cigar and watching us fight the colorful shellworms. You have also seen that if I had been slowing down for a second, he would have already escaped." Zou Zichuan looked at the middle-aged man coldly.
"Then...why did you kill that mustache? He is our hostage!"
"That mustache is just a dog and has no value at all. He will be abandoned by the fat man at any time. So, he didn't know that the agency here is normal. After all, this is the office where the fat man killed someone and had fun..."
"I'm asking why you killed him?" The middle-aged man interrupted Zou Zichuan.
"He is a dog. Although it is a worthless dog, the dog still bites people. If I keep him, then we will allocate people to stare at him. If you are careless and do not stare, we will be in danger. Now, after killing him, we are safe at least for the time being, because the people outside don't know that the bald fat man and the beard are dead for a short time... Also, I want to remind you that if you dare to interrupt me again, I will kill you." Zou Zichuan stared at the middle-aged man with a blade-like gaze.
"Do you like killing people?" The female pirate leader frowned and looked at Zou Zichuan.
"dislike."
"But... I seem to like killing people very much." said the female pirate leader.
"If I don't kill people, you should become the food of colorful shellworms at this time. Let me tell you, colorful shellworms like to eat women." Zou Zichuan looked up and down at the female pirate leader.
"Ah..." The female pirate leader was so cold that his back was shivering from Zou Zichuan's eyes.
"Have you killed many people?" Lan Ji asked curiously.
“There are some.”
"How many?"
"It's probably a few million."
"Puchi...Okay, great hero, you have successfully attracted our attention. If you work harder, you can hold the beauty back. However, please remember your identity. You are still a chef. No matter how powerful you are, you are also the chef on our boat. You can soak me, not the lady." Lan Ji burst out laughing. She didn't believe that there were millions of people who died in Zou Zichuan's hands.
"You can only wait." Zou Zichuan turned around and looked at the deep and dark corridor.
"What are you waiting for?"
"You see the surrounding iron walls and iron castings, the corrosion is very serious, and the traces of looking down are not natural oxidation, but corrosive liquid sprayed from colorful shellworms. This shows that this place is a place where colorful shellworms are raised, that is, those colorful shellworms participating in the battle are all made out from here. So, as long as we wait patiently, we will wait for the opportunity." Zou Zichuan looked around.
"But the problem is that whether they take away the colorful shellworms or put them in, they use iron cages to connect. That is to say, even if your speculation is correct, we are just entering another iron cage." Lan Ji said.
"The iron cage that imprisons the colorful shell insects has no locks. Just insert the latch and extend your hand from the iron cage to open it." Zou Zichuan said lightly.
"Ah...how do you know?" Lan Ji was stunned.
"Previously, the iron cages they used to close crocodile dinosaurs and colorful shellworms were designed in that way. Humans could easily open them outside. Moreover, in order to avoid being injured by beasts inside the iron cage, they would use tools more than two meters long to pick them open. In other words, the design of that kind of lock is very primitive and simple."
"Are they not afraid of beasts opening the door?" said the female pirate leader.
"How did you become the leader of the pirate?!" Zou Zichuan stared at the female pirate leader with a deep gaze and asked.
"Is it related to this issue that I am a pirate leader?" The female pirate leader showed an angry look on her face, because she felt Zou Zichuan's rudeness to her.
"A man has a pair of dexterous hands, do beasts have one?"
"Ah..." The female pirate leader's face turned red, and he lowered his head and did not dare to look at Zou Zichuan.
"Cook, please pay attention to your identity!" Seeing that the lady was wronged, Lan Ji could only pluck up the courage to speak for her.
"Actually, I don't mind killing a woman." Zou Zichuan stared at Lan Ji with a cold look.
"You...you...why do you always think about killing people?" Lan Ji took a step back. She was really afraid that the long knife in Zou Zichuan's hand would suddenly be chopped down. The knife killed the colorful shell insects like chopping vegetables and melons. She couldn't withstand that knife.
"Because, if you hadn't encouraged this young lady to watch the performance at the Colosseum, she wouldn't have put her in danger. Do you think you should die?" Zou Zichuan snorted coldly.
"I...I...I should die...Miss, I'm sorry." Lan Ji looked gloomy.
"From now on, each of you must obey my arrangements." Zou Zichuan said word by word.
"By..."
The middle-aged man's voice stopped abruptly because the blade of the long sword was already close to his neck, and the cold air emitted by the sharp blade made him cold all over.
"You should die if you don't stand up when the lady is about to be sent into the iron cage! If Lan Ji deserves to die, then you deserve to die. At least, she knows how to protect the master, and you are not worthy of being a dog!"
"..." The middle-aged man's face turned red.
"Okay, I'll reiterate it again. From now on, each of you will listen to me. Who opposes?" Zou Zichuan's sword-like gaze swept across everyone's faces, and no one spoke.
The female pirate leader glanced at Lan Ji, and Lan Ji shook her head and signaled her not to speak.
"Okay, since no one objected, now, everyone should sit down and rest and keep their energy." After Zou Zichuan issued the order, he walked away and chose a slightly cleaner place to sit down.
Lan Ji settled the female pirate leader and walked to Zou Zichuan to sit down.
"Do you have any plans?" Lan Ji asked carefully.
"No."
"That……"
"Everything happens."
"If they knew you killed that bald fat man, the entire Oak Barrel Space City would want us, and we will never be able to leave here..."
"What do you mean, after letting the bald fat man escape safely, he put his legs on the desk, smoking a big cigar, and watching the young lady with satisfaction as she was sent into an iron cage to become a food for colorful shell insects?" Zou Zichuan glanced at Lan Ji beside him.
"No...No..."
"But the fact is that as long as I didn't take action at that time, he would run away. Then, we were locked in a cabin with iron walls. We would not only face the colorful shell bugs, but also all kinds of beasts, and even poisonous gas, or mechas... Do you think, should I let him go or kill him?"
"Kill him." Lan Ji gritted her teeth. She suddenly realized that if the chef hadn't killed people decisively, they would have been the prey in the hands of the bald fat man.
"Just understand." Zou Zichuan calmed down his tone. After all, he still had to leave Oak Barrel Space City on the pirate ship, and he didn't want to have a rigging relationship with Lan Ji.
"What should we do if the bald fat man was found out about the murder of Oak Barrel Space City?"
"There is nothing that cannot be solved by killing people. If you can't kill one, then kill two. If you can't kill two, kill ten. If you can't kill ten, kill one hundred. If you can't kill one hundred, then kill ten thousand, one hundred, and one million, and kill until the matter is solved." Zou Zichuan said lightly.
"Gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee, gee,
"I... Xiao Chuan."
"You hesitated for a moment, did you use a pseudonym?"
"Yes."
