Chapter 488: Beaten Senseless

This round, Earth-Rabbit walked up to Jiang Shi and directly opened the door.

This was naturally the correct choice. After all, Jiang Shi’s direction was closer to Room Ten and Room Fourteen. As long as he identified this direction correctly, he could naturally advance toward where the Participants were located.

Seeing his door being opened, Jiang Shi slowly stood up and turned back to say to Chen Junnan next door: “Idiot leader, do you want to lock the door?”

“Hm?” Chen Junnan looked at Jiang Shi with confusion. “Don’t you need this young master here to cheer you on and shout encouragement?”

“Are you sick…” Jiang Shi curled his lips. “He’s about to come in and beat me up. What are you cheering for? You want me to take a beating with high morale?”

“You ungrateful brat!” Chen Junnan also curled his lips.

Chen Junnan naturally wanted to witness the strength of “Indestructible.” This kind of close-range situation was most suitable for observation, but there would also be obvious drawbacks. Once Earth-Rabbit discovered that “Indestructible” was very difficult to kill, he would naturally put all his attention on himself.

Thinking of this, he slightly opened his mouth: “I’ll just watch you from here. Make sure you perform well.”

“I promise I absolutely won’t cry.” Jiang Shi said with a serious expression.

Chen Junnan watched as the main force moved from Room Six to Room Ten, but neither closed the door nor locked it, seemingly leaving himself some way out.

“Team leader.” Cui Shisi turned back and said, “The treasure isn’t in Ten. We’ll continue walking down and head to Fourteen.”

“Got it.” Chen Junnan nodded. At this moment, he was in no mood to worry about the treasure.

After all, Earth-Rabbit had already chosen the battlefield. This place would soon be flowing with blood.

“‘Indestructible’…” Chen Junnan couldn’t help feeling a bit nervous. “Let this young master see what exactly you are…”

“Participants’ action ends. Zodiac, please begin your action.”

At this moment, Jiang Shi was still lazily squatting on the ground with his arms folded. He raised his head to look at Earth-Rabbit, who had an abnormally tall build. The disproportionate physiques of the two formed a huge contrast at this moment.

“Kid…” Earth-Rabbit slowly moved his neck, and the veins on his face gradually emerged. “Haven’t you been seeking death all along?”

“Ah ah… yeah.” Jiang Shi nodded expressionlessly. “Seeking death… how do you want me to die?”

“Heh…”

Earth-Rabbit slowly raised his fist. Standing in the distance, Chen Junnan felt that Earth-Rabbit’s fist was almost as big as Jiang Shi’s head.

Jiang Shi still squatted on the ground expressionlessly, then looked at that huge fist and muttered softly: “Am I… going to die?”

As soon as the words fell, a perfectly timed bell suddenly rang from the distance, and Earth-Rabbit’s fist swung down casually along with this bell.

Seeing this, Jiang Shi immediately leaned back on the ground, turned back to brace himself with his right hand on the ground, and his whole body flipped in an exceptionally beautiful somersault.

That punch actually missed.

“Yah…” Jiang Shi steadied his stance and folded his arms again on the ground. “Not that fast…”

“Why are you like a monkey…?” Earth-Rabbit frowned as he looked at this child. He couldn’t understand how this kid who looked only twelve or thirteen years old could have kung fu.

But Chen Junnan vaguely noticed a problem.

He had seen Jiang Shi do that somersault many times before. That wasn’t “kung fu,” because the somersault was performed too standardly—it was more like the martial performance techniques in Peking Opera.

“Don’t get angry.” Jiang Shi raised his head and laughed. “As the saying goes… wine is poison that pierces the intestines, lust is a steel blade that scrapes bones…”

Earth-Rabbit ran forward a few steps and kicked downward with his leg. This time he clearly increased his force, but Jiang Shi performed another backflip and quickly widened the distance.

A dull thud rang out, and the ground seemed about to crack, but this kick didn’t hit Jiang Shi.

After Jiang Shi steadied himself, he folded his arms again and slowly said: “…wealth is the root of disaster, and anger… is lightning, smoke, and cannon fire.”

“Is there something wrong with you, kid?” Earth-Rabbit felt that this child had a strange aura all over him. He seemed even more old-fashioned than himself.

Seeing this scene, Chen Junnan also felt somewhat reassured. Earth-Rabbit’s physical qualities were similar to Zhang Shan’s. The muscles all over his body allowed them to burst out with tremendous force, but they weren’t skilled in fighting techniques.

That punch and kick just now clearly had no pattern to them—they were just like street fighting. He wanted to use absolute power to restrain Jiang Shi, but Jiang Shi was more agile than ordinary children and had some basic skills in singing, reciting, acting, and fighting. It seemed he shouldn’t be killed for a while.

The two had very different levels of agility, but the Zodiac had more enduring stamina than ordinary people.

There was no time limit for Earth-Rabbit to kill the Participants, and currently, it seemed that each time Jiang Shi dodged, he had to mobilize all the strength in his body to flip. Although he wouldn’t be injured for now, how long could he hold out?

As Chen Junnan predicted, after flipping seven or eight somersaults in a row, Jiang Shi was already somewhat out of breath. He tried his best to maintain the distance between himself and Earth-Rabbit, but Earth-Rabbit still gradually backed him into a corner.

“Kid, not jumping anymore?” Earth-Rabbit snorted coldly and used his broad build to block all of Jiang Shi’s escape routes.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Shi also swallowed slightly: “Too bad I only learned backflips… I still can’t do forward rolls.”

“Ha.” Earth-Rabbit was amused by Jiang Shi. “Then don’t say I’m bullying a child. I’ll let you die now.”

Jiang Shi took a deep breath, pulled out his folded arms, and moved his small fingers.

“Three-foot dragon spring sword and ten thousand scrolls of books, what meaning does heaven have in creating me…” Jiang Shi closed his eyes. “Cannot serve the country and secure the realm under heaven, falsely called a man of great virtue… In the last episode, the huge rabbit demon before us, without saying a word, cornered this brave fellow and struck without hesitation. Only the sound of the howling wind could be heard, blowing so fiercely that one couldn’t open one’s eyes…”

Earth-Rabbit’s eyes slightly changed. No longer paying attention to the crazy babbling child before him, he unreasonably threw a punch down from above Jiang Shi, hitting directly on his cheek. With a crisp sound, Jiang Shi’s head twisted violently to one side in a very terrifying manner. It looked like his neck had completely broken, and now his head and body were only connected by a layer of skin.

Because the punch was so fast, many fragments of skin from Jiang Shi’s face were also flung to the ground.

A gust of wind passed by, and Jiang Shi completely stopped moving.

“Hey… no, no way…” Chen Junnan looked at the scene before him with some horror. He had known all along that Jiang Shi would get hit, but he never thought Jiang Shi would be killed with one move. “Kid, aren’t you ‘Indestructible’? Activate it!”

Jiang Shi’s head slowly drooped to one side, and his whole body sat on the ground limply.

Seeing this, Chen Junnan hurriedly turned back to look at Cui Shisi in the room in the distance: “Shisi Jie, what’s going on? This kid took a beating and stopped moving…”

After watching, Cui Shisi reached up to smooth her hair and thought very carefully for a while, then said: “Although I didn’t see what happened, Shi Ge was probably beaten senseless. It’s fine, it’s fine.”

“Be-beaten senseless?!” Chen Junnan completely couldn’t understand. “That kid’s head was knocked crooked! Huh? And you’re saying it’s fine?!”
