I steal from the heavens

Chapter 2 The Supreme Treasure

Li Gu became even more excited and shouted: "Damn it, aren't you a great thing? How could my cousin give it to me?"

The assistant did not answer his exclamation, but went on to introduce the task: "In addition to the main goal, the contractor also has optional tasks. Mission goal (optional): Steal the 'satellite-level blue product' wind-type offensive magic weapon, the Banana Fan. Do you want to feel the power of the wind? Face the blast! Estimated price: 20 points from the heavens."

"Remarks: This mission cannot be recycled and can only be completed once. The mission has failed 986 times. The 987th mission is in progress. The recipient is Wu Yundong."

Li Gu couldn't help being speechless, "Before this, more than 900 people have failed the mission?"

"Yes. The contractor, Li Gu (before changing his name: Wu Yundong), is the recipient of the 987th task of the immortal Buddha theft mission "Journey to the West."

Li Gu nodded and sorted out his thoughts a little, "So, you asked me to steal the Moonlight Treasure Box. If I can't steal it, I can't leave this world."

"How to leave this mission. First, complete the main mission. Second, use the 'Escape Voucher of Myriad Realms' to abandon the mission halfway."

"Escape ticket from the world?" Li Gu was too hot and wanted a place to hide from the sun. He looked around, but there was no shelter. He could only put his coat on his head, but it was still very hot.

"Escape Voucher of Myriad Realms. 'Satellite-level white-level' consumable talisman. Made for a certain mysterious god, it allows users to travel through the world and escape from danger. Price: 10 heavenly points."

Good stuff.Li Gu nodded, "Then do I have it?"

"The contractor's balance is insufficient and cannot be purchased."

Li Gu rolled his eyes helplessly, "Yeah. Just not."

He looked at the yellow sand all over the place, and felt a little blocked, "I said. You let me, a mortal, steal the magic weapon of gods and monsters? Isn't that a life-threatening thing? No wonder you have failed so many times. Tell me, how to steal it? "

"The contractor only needs to hold the magic weapon alone and it will take more than 10 minutes to complete the upload. For example, in this mission, if the contractor 'alone' touches the Moonlight Box for more than 10 minutes, the assistant can use this time to transfer the Moonlight Box gone back."

Li Gu chuckled, "Heh, this method is indeed stealing, not robbing." He had said so much, his mouth was already a little dry, "I didn't mean to ask you this. I mean, is there anything Novice gift packs and the like.”

"Newbie gifts have been distributed."

Li Gu was overjoyed, "Where is it?"

"Newbie gift package, the contractor has chosen, loan 50 Heavenly Points."

choose?I have no choice.

Li Gu suddenly realized that what he took over was the mess left by his cousin Wu Yundong.

An ominous premonition lingered in his heart, and he was unwilling to dissipate for a long time. "Assistant, open the consumption record."

"Consumption record has been opened. Spend 10 Heavenly Points: Get Ten Thousand Realms Escape Coupon X1.

"Consume 10 Heavens Points: Get the Myriad Realms Escape Coupon X1."

"Consume 10 Heavens Points: Get the Myriad Realms Escape Coupon X1."

"Consume 20 Heavens Points: Obtain a low-level destiny conversion scroll X1."

"Current balance: -500000 Heavenly Points."

Li Gu resisted the pain in his heart, and roared silently: "So, he is a little bastard. He spent all 50 yuan, and made me owe a whole lot of debt?"

He gritted his teeth, "I want to see where the hell he went, and how he got two escape coupons. Open the task bar."

"The task list has been opened. The two 'Escape Vouchers of Myriad Worlds' are used respectively. Mission [-] has failed: the theft mission "Prometheus". The goal of the mission is to steal the prototype alien egg, which failed."

"Mission [-] has failed: the survival mission "A Nightmare on Elm Street". The mission goal is to survive hard and present a thrilling and exciting adventure to the audience. Escaped midway and failed."

Li Gu: "..."

"Forget it, why didn't he die there, and now he brought me to such a ghostly place, what a bad boy! Damn! It's really bad luck for eight lifetimes." He kept muttering, full of resentment .

"hiss."

A drop of sweat did not exist for a second on the sandy surface on the ground, and it evaporated directly.

The hot and sandy wind hit his face with pain.

"I can't stand it, it's too hot. Let's not talk about this for now. Can you give me some direction? If I don't leave this desert, I will die here."

He licked his dry and cracked lips. He was sweating profusely and was already a little dizzy from the heat.

More than a dozen gold characters appeared, "The mission location is confirmed, Wuyue Mountain, five kilometers due west."

"Five kilometers, not far away."

Li Gu started, hiking in the desert.

The wind and sand gradually became stronger, and Li Gu wrapped his head in clothes, squinting his eyes and moving forward slowly.

Time passed and the sun moved some distance across the sky.But it was still some time before it went down the mountain, so it was still hot.

I don’t know how long I’ve been walking, but my phone’s battery is running low.

Li Gu's forehead began to ache, accompanied by dizziness and weakness, and some mild symptoms of dehydration had already appeared on his body.

Finally, after he crossed a desolate Gobi desert, he finally saw a different color.

It was no longer the bright yellow sand, but the black-yellow silt and white-gray crushed stones on the ground.There is finally vegetation on the ground, although it is just some dead trees and weeds.

"Finally left the desert."

It is surrounded by huge boulders and hills that have been eroded into strange shapes by the perennial wind and sand.

Li Gu limped along the dry mud road. The soles of his leather shoes were hard, and the blisters on his feet had long been worn out.

"anyone there?"

Faintly, there is a curl of cooking smoke in the distance that rises to the sky.It looked like someone was cooking.Finally let him meet someone.Li Gu was overjoyed immediately and couldn't help walking faster.

Sudden.An inexplicable cry echoed through the mountains.

"robbery!"

"Robbery, soles of feet!"

"Hand over the soles of your feet!"

From some corner, a dozen or so ragged beggars suddenly appeared... No, they should be bandits.

The dozen or so people were already in ambush around them, but when they saw Li Gu entering the encirclement, they came out from all directions and surrounded Li Gu in the middle.

These people are not only dressed in sloppy clothes, but also have strange hairstyles.Obviously not bald, but deliberately shaved the middle hair.There are still a few with twisted braids on their heads, and what's more, they are straight airplane heads that are rarely seen in future generations.

If it wasn't for each of them holding a knife, ax and sickle, such a weapon, Li Gu would have thought that some mental hospital patients had escaped collectively.

"Huh? Why is there only one person?"

Erdang held a machete in his hand and walked around Li Gu, "You look like this, you are dressed in a strange shape. Tell me, who are you?"

Wow, Wu Mengda!Li Gu suppressed his inner excitement and did not show it.

A bald man with bangs, copied a woman's voice, reminded in a low voice: "Second boss, we are here to rob the soles of the feet."

This bald, weird man is called Blind Man.It's not a "blind man" who really can't see, it's just that his name is blind and he can see.

Erdangjia came back to his senses, raised his machete, and turned to Li Gu viciously: "Quickly show the soles of your feet, are there three moles?"

Three moles?It seems that the spider spirit and the white bone spirit have already moved into their cottage...

"what!"

The blind man used his feminine voice and suddenly let out a piercing scream.

"Snapped!"

Erdangjia slapped him and knocked him to the ground. "What are you doing? What's the name of the ghost? It's frightening to death."

The bandit brothers around him also looked at the blind man with dissatisfaction.

The blind man covered his face and got up from the ground, "Second in charge, look at this man's hair."

Just now everyone was attracted by Li Gu's black suit, but now he noticed his short cut.

What happened to the hair?Li Gu touched his head without knowing why.

"Pooh."

The second leader spat in disdain, "Ah? Another fake monk? Why, you also admire our leader? Tell me! Are you a spy sent by the officers and soldiers?"

The thieves around also showed fierce looks, and they had the urge to rush up to Li Gu if he said a wrong word, and hacked him to death with knives.

Damn it, Li Gu felt a chill in his heart. It was obvious that the previously failed contractor had aroused their vigilance.

"Before, we also came here a few fake monks who were dressed similarly to yours. What are you talking about, I am a monk from the Eastern Tang Dynasty. What a joke, are you also an eminent monk from the Tang Dynasty?"

Erdangjia looked at Li Gu with a smile, waiting for his answer.

"No."

Everyone who said "yes" before is dead, so the correct answer must be "no".Li Gu shook his head, "I am not a monk, nor am I from Tang Dynasty."

The story background of Journey to the West did take place in the Tang Dynasty, but these bandits seem to dislike the Tang Dynasty, why?

Erdangjia nodded, "Those fake monks before bullied us for not having read the books. They said they were monks from the Tang Dynasty? The Tang Dynasty has been destroyed for more than 100 years, and they still want to lie to me? It seems that they are sent by the officers and soldiers. spies, so we killed them all."

After speaking, he stared at Li Gu again, "Tell me! Are you a spy sent by the officers and soldiers?"

Li Gu was not intimidated by these dozen or so people.He is a scholar who has received nine years of compulsory education. He has absolute confidence in deceiving these bandits who have never seen much of the world.

"How is that possible? Please rest assured, Second Master, I am not an officer or soldier, let alone a spy."

The second boss was reluctant, "What evidence is there?"

The blind man muttered again, "Second boss, the soles of the feet."

"Snapped!"

"oops."

The second master slapped his backhand, "I'm talking, why are you interrupting? Hmm? Are you trying to take my place?"

"No." The blind man lay on the ground and said weakly.

Er Dangjia was angry from the heart, and kicked up. "Not yet! You've been interrupting since just now, don't you think I'm the second-in-command in your heart?" After speaking, he kicked a few more times in confusion.

The blind man fell to the ground with a look of intoxication, "Second leader, it's so cool, let's do it again."

The second leader's face changed, and he quickly walked away from the blind man, and continued to shout to Li Gu: "Then, do you have nothing to say? When I saw you, I knew you were the spy of the officers and soldiers! Brothers, hack him to death!"

"and many more!"

Li Gu quickly raised his hands to stop the approaching bandits, "Second leader of the family. I am Li Gu, yes, um, a scholar. He has only studied since he was a child and does not know any martial arts. He just came out of the desert alone. I came to Guibao by accident, and I am indeed not an officer or soldier."

"A scholar? Don't know martial arts?" The second master looked at Li Gu carefully again, "Even if you are not an officer or soldier, it is useless to keep him. Just kill him."

"Wait a minute!" Li Guzai's mind was spinning rapidly, "As the saying goes, Bai Wuyi is a scholar. I can understand the second master's concerns. But!"

"However, my biggest dream since childhood was to become a glorious and great bandit."

Erdangjia and the bandits, who have never read books, also know that the status of scholars is very high.To be complimented by Li Gu, a scholar, my inner vanity was greatly satisfied.

Before I knew it, I also believed that Li Gu was a scholar.

Who doesn't like being flattered.For a time, the originally ferocious attitude softened a lot.

"Seeing how skinny you are, you still want to be a bandit?" The second master took back his machete, patted Li Gu's shoulder with his dirty hands, and squeezed his arm, saying with great disgust, " Since you are so good at talking, we won't kill you. Spare your life and get out of here."

How could Li Gu leave? He still had to sneak around the Supreme Treasure and steal the Moonlight Treasure Box in the future.

"The second in charge. Although I don't know martial arts, I am smart, I have read books, and I can calculate accounts. In the future, when my brothers rob money, I can help register them."

He looked around and saw those grotesque thieves, "Brothers present, there are not many who can read, right? Even if we snatch valuable calligraphy and paintings in the future, I'm afraid they will use them as toilet paper, right?"

The blind man nodded secretly, "What the second master said seems to make sense."

The second leader pursed his mouth in disbelief, "What's the point! Smart? Are you as smart as I am? Our Ax Gang has its own rules. After the robbery, everyone divides the spoils on the spot. What kind of account is it?"

The blind man complimented from the side: "That's right, the second leader is..." Suddenly, he changed the subject: "The leader is the smartest, and the second leader is also smart."

The second master was stunned for a moment, turned around with a stiff face, and sure enough saw the Supreme Treasure already standing behind him.

Zhizunbao got a little angry and punched the second master in the stomach. "Damn, I've been waiting for you on the hillside for a long time, and I just robbed someone's feet. Can't you do such a small thing well?"

Erdangjia smiled and said, "No, leader. I met a fake monk, no, a scholar."

"Scholar?" Zhizunbao shifted his gaze to Li Gu, "I heard some of what you just said later, and it makes sense. However, our Ax Gang cannot enter casually."

When Li Gu saw Supreme Treasure, he could hardly suppress his inner excitement.At this time, he was trembling with excitement, just like meeting a fan of an idol.Just follow him and get the Moonlight Treasure Box just around the corner!

However, he is not an irrational fanatic.Soon he calmed down and calmed down.

Li Gu stared at Supreme Treasure, pretending to be thoughtful. "This is an extraordinary handsome, personable, graceful, suave and handsome man. Could it be that he is your leader?"

"Good eyesight!" Zhizunbao's eyes lit up.The rest of the Axe Gang are all rough, never heard such a comfortable rainbow fart.

"As expected of a scholar, it's just different."

Supreme Treasure suddenly looked stern, "That's right! I'm the Jade Face Little Flying Dragon, the most beautiful man in Wuyue Mountain, leader of the Ax Gang, Supreme Treasure!"

"Good! What a jade-faced flying dragon!" Li Gu applauded and shouted!
All the bandits were taken aback and looked at him blankly.

Li Gu suddenly looked very pity again and shook his head, "What a pity."

"What's a pity?" Zhizunbao asked with great concern.

"What a pity. If the gang leader had a beard, he would be more manly and handsome!" Li Gu said regretfully.

Li Gu didn't know Zhizunbao's preferences and could only flatter him about his appearance.But this is not enough, you also need to increase your favorability.

Fortunately, he, who is familiar with the plot, knows that Supreme Treasure has now taken a fancy to the beautiful Bai Jingjing.Because of Bai Jingjing's angry words, Zhizunbao mistakenly thought that she liked his rough side.

So now, what Bai Jingjing "likes" is the right direction.Li Gu did what he liked and said the same thing.

"Good vision! Good insight!" Supreme Treasure was overjoyed, and then looked at the bandits with disgust, "Look at them and learn from them."

"As the saying goes, one more person is more powerful, especially when encountering a strong enemy. If the guild leader asks me to join your gang, I will definitely follow the guild leader's lead."

Li Gu took the opportunity to hint.

The blind man also murmured to the side: "That's right, boss, there is also a Chunsanniang riding on your head and shitting on your head in our village. One more person, one more strength."

"He's just a burden, can he help us deal with Chunsanniang? And his origin is unknown, maybe he is a spy sent by the officers and soldiers." The second master still didn't trust Li Gu, he jumped to Zhizunbao's side and said.

Supreme Treasure kicked a dumb bandit who was standing beside him into the air, and reprimanded him, "What are you going to do with it? Chunsanniang and her junior sister, Jingjing, are guests of our cottage, very honorable guests! These bastards, be more polite to guests."

After being kicked, the mute looked aggrieved.But he was so dumb that he couldn't speak.

The blind man was also taken aback, "Master, I'm here."

Zhizunbao said angrily, "You stand so far away, how could I kick you, come here!"

"Oh." The blind man walked to him obediently.

"Ah, hit!" Zhizunbao gave another casual kick, kicking the blind man away.The blind man cooperated very well and said, "Ouch!" Then under the gaze of everyone, he rolled several times on the ground and lay there motionless.

Li Gu knew that he could not wait any longer.With the second boss here as a troublemaker, there are too many variables.The Supreme Treasure had already relented just now, but he couldn't be allowed to change his mind again.

"How about some help?"

His voice drew everyone's attention from the blind man back to him.

Supreme Treasure looked at Li Gu with admiration on his face: "For scholars, the leader of this gang still admires them. Our Ax Gang is a bunch of big bosses who don't know a lot of characters. We really need talents like you."

He paused, looked at the straw sandals on his feet, and then stared at Li Gu's leather shoes. "Your shoes look good."

Li Gu immediately took off his leather shoes and socks, and handed them over respectfully, "The chief has a good eye. This is made of crocodile skin, a good thing."

"What kind of leather?" Zhizunbao didn't care about this anymore, kicked off his straw sandals, and couldn't wait to put on his socks and leather shoes.

I also don't dislike the sweaty smell on it.

Hey, compared to those bastards who haven't bathed for decades, Li Gu, who has been walking all afternoon, is still fragrant.

Besides, can a pair of leather shoes be compared with the Moonlight Box?Li Gu didn't feel aggrieved at all, but he still had blood blisters on his feet, and now he was standing barefoot on the uneven gravel and mud, his eyes were red from the pain.

"It's so comfortable." Supreme Treasure stamped its feet and smiled, "What's your name?"

"Li Gu."

"With a name and a surname, there are no calluses on the hands." Zhizunbao tilted his head again, looked at Li Gu's white feet with blood blisters, and said with a smile: "Skinned and tender. He is a scholar."

"it is good!"

Supreme Treasure raised his arms and called out, "Brothers, our Ax Gang has welcomed a new brother today! That is Li Gu! The leader of the gang has now officially appointed him as the third head of the Ax Gang!"

Everyone was stunned.

Except for the second leader who was very upset, the other bandits all smiled kindly at Li Gu.

Supreme Treasure nodded in satisfaction, and at this moment, a bunch of blue grapes fell on his head out of thin air.

He picked up the bunch of blue grapes and looked around in a daze.The surrounding area is empty, and there are no plants taller than him. Where did this thing come from?
"Eh? Pu... grape?"
