[Pranks of the gods] Xueba is coming

Loki walked all the way forward, glancing at Ji Qi and Hades who were chatting happily from time to time, he just felt a kind of irritability in his heart that he couldn't explain the reason himself, and he couldn't even vent it.

He knew that this guy had a good brain and knew a lot of things. No matter how much he asked at the beginning, he didn't overwhelm her, and he could tell that this guy liked to read books.But he had never seen her who had such a pleasant discussion with others, and he had never seen that kind of interested expression.

If it's about talking about things in northern Europe, he can also chat with her a lot.

Rocky speeded up his walking with some displeasure, but just as he drew some distance from Ji Xi, he felt a pain in the back of his head, and turned around to see that his braid was caught in Ji Xi's hands.

"What are you doing?" Loki pressed the back of his head and stared at Ji Qi, "Aren't you going to support the wall?"

Ji Qi looked down at his right hand, which was still holding Loki's long braid, and raised his head with an innocent face: "I saw that you were walking too far, so I pulled you. This is a maze set up by Zeus. There is a hidden danger, so it’s better not to spread them out. As for holding on to the wall...just walk along one side of the wall, it doesn’t matter if you hold on or not.”

"That's true," Hades also interjected. "We've been walking for so long, maybe we will soon encounter the danger mentioned in the game instructions. It's better to stay together."

Well, it's his problem again, isn't it?Luo Ji curled his lips, and didn't care that Ji Qi was still holding onto his braids, and continued walking like this, but he didn't increase the distance.

When it comes to the danger in the maze, Hades' interest in chatting has also decreased a lot. He just walked quietly, and the passage became quiet.Ji Qi didn't continue talking, but just quietly glanced at the red hair he was still holding in his hand.

In fact, she can let go now, but the soft hair makes her palms itch, which inexplicably makes her not want to let go. It seems that as long as she holds it like this, she can feel at ease.

No one knows what will happen in this maze. The possible dangers are like darkness. The more you can't see clearly, the more people will exaggerate its horror.Ji Qi didn't know if she was influenced by her subconscious mind, and she also felt worried and nervous about the so-called danger. Although the bright environment didn't make her feel scared, she was still a little unsteady, right?

She had a pleasant chat with Hades, and she probably didn't mean to divert her attention, or maybe it was because Loki's indifferent attitude towards her made her feel uneasy, so she didn't dare to approach him.

Ji Qi lowered her eyes slightly, since when did she rely on Loki so much?In terms of the time we spent together, it wasn't too long, but when I thought about it carefully, there were a lot of things I experienced. Together with the accumulation of the usual bits and pieces, the time was extended.

Thinking of what Zeus once said about asking her to tell Loki her real gender, Ji Qi clenched his lips, became ruthless, and slowly let go of his hand.

But before the braids completely slipped out of her palm, Luo Ji suddenly turned around, grabbed Ji Qi's waist, and ran back to the corner he had just passed, holding her with one hand, covering her mouth with the other, and clinging to her. Standing against the wall, carefully looking sideways into the passage.

Ji Qi quickly came to his senses, and seeing Hades standing beside him vigilantly, he knew there must be some danger.She calmed down, and faintly heard the sound of heavy breathing, the position was probably near the passage where they were just now.

"It's the Minotaur." Hades' voice was extremely low, but Ji Xi could still hear it clearly.

Loki is no exception. Although he doesn't understand the situation in Greece, he still heard a few words when Ji Xi discussed with Hades. He is not unfamiliar with the name Minotaur, and the one he remembers most clearly is It is "the head of a cow".He just heard the breathing and footsteps of the beast, so he pulled Ji Qi into hiding, but he didn't see what the monster was.

Realizing that he was still in an awkward position with Ji Qi, Luo Ji quickly let go of his hand, but Ji Qi didn't notice this, but frowned: "What should I do?"

"This should be 'danger'." Hades said in a deep voice, "Now the three of us have been sealed with divine power, no different from humans, and we don't have any weapons at hand, so we can't defeat the Minotaur at all."

"But if we want to get out of the maze, we must defeat it." Ji Qi frowned.

"No matter what, let's find out the situation first." Loki said, "I'm more agile, so let me do it. If something happens, I'm sure I can get rid of it in the maze."

Ji Xi's heart tightened, and Hades was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Indeed, you are the only one with the best skill among the three of us, but you must not force yourself, and run away immediately if you find something wrong."

Loki made a grimace: "Don't run away when I run away, but you don't run away. If you hear me shouting 'run', you run quickly." He looked at Ji Qi, stretched out his finger On her forehead, "Especially you, don't run and fall."

How can you say something that sounds like FLAG!Ji Qi wanted to complain, but he just touched his forehead that was a little sore from being bounced, and said calmly, "Be careful."

Unexpectedly, Ji Xi would tell him to be careful in such a serious manner, Luo Ji smiled, and then patted Ji Xi's hair: "I know, you just hide here." Then he became serious, and posted Moving towards the position of the Minotaur along the wall.

Seeing Loki's figure disappear around the corner, Ji Xi also gradually became nervous. He clenched his fists subconsciously, tensed his nerves, and waited for Loki's next instruction. Every minute and every second seemed extremely long.

When Ji Xi heard the sound of "Hey", Ji Xi was startled, but then Loki's shout sounded: "Come here, there is no danger." This sentence made Ji Xi feel relieved, and he and Hades looked at each other , and walked over there carefully.

There was really no danger. When he got closer, Ji Xi saw clearly that the Minotaur, who had the head of a cow and was twice the height of an ordinary adult male, was just a phantom, like... a soul body?

She looked at Hades, who nodded after looking at it for a while: "It is dead, and what is here is only its soul. I did not see the Minotaur in the underworld before. See you here." He hesitated for a moment, "I think it should not be restrained by Zeus, but voluntarily wandering in the maze."

"From my understanding, it should have some unfulfilled wish, so its soul is bound here and cannot die." Ji Xi understands this very well.She looked at the Minotaur standing there, somewhat unable to understand how to defeat this danger.

Loki was much more courageous. He walked up to the Minotaur and tried to pat its body, but his palm passed through the phantom.And this action also caught the attention of Minotaur. It turned the huge bull's head, and there was no light in its dark red eyes: "Who is the person I hate the most?"

The question came out suddenly, and with the Minotaur's dull voice, it sounded resentful.

Hades said strangely: "Could it be that this is the truth?"

"I think this should be a question of defeating him." Ji Xi thought for a while, "Although the game instructions said that we should defeat the danger, it didn't say that we must kill the danger. Answered its question and gave it what it wanted The answer may be defeat."

Loki shrugged: "Isn't it much simpler to say this? Didn't you just say that it was killed by Theseus? Then he must hate Theseus the most."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Minotaur's eyes flashed red, and then he roared.Loki, who was completely unprepared, was lifted high into the air by the oxtail wrapped around his neck, and he couldn't escape no matter how hard he struggled.

"What's going on!" Hades was caught off guard by this. He looked at the Minotaur who was obviously in a state of anger. "Is it because of the wrong answer! But it was still a soul just now! How could it suddenly touch us!"

Ji Xi tried his best to calm himself down, not looking at Loki in mid-air, and said in a deep voice: "In this case, find out the correct answer, maybe it will calm down."

"The correct answer... is Minos? It was he who did not sacrifice to Poseidon, which caused Poseidon's anger, which led to the birth of Minotaur, and he also imprisoned Minotaur In the maze!" As soon as Hades finished speaking, he was grabbed by the neck and slammed his palm on the wall.

The two gods around her were in danger, and Ji Qi felt her mind go blank, she had never experienced such a thing before.Perhaps the result of her answering wrong was also restrained and killed together. With Zeus' character, she just quit the game and did not affect her life.

But Ji Xi couldn't accept it, even if it was a false death, she didn't want to see it.The struggle of Rocky, who was hoisted first, has gradually weakened, and he may soon be suffocated.Hades was also pinned against the wall, pale with pain.

Unprecedented pressure suddenly fell on Ji Qi, and she couldn't even concentrate on thinking about the answer to Minotaur's question until a familiar voice came to her ears.

"Cough, you, what are you panicking about..." Loki coughed dryly and said, "Aren't you very smart?"

In this situation, Ji Xi's first thought was how to refute Loki, but he just opened his mouth, took a breath of cool air, but felt calmed down.She glanced at Loki, then at Minotaur, forcing herself to think—not the answer to this question, but the reason why Zeus set up such a danger.

Why did Hakoniwa appear?Because Zeus wants these problem gods to understand human beings and love them.

This has always been Zeus's principle of behavior, so now is no exception.

Looking at the Minotaur from a human perspective, who does it hate the most?

Ji Xi bit his lower lip, and then said word by word: "Ariadne."

"Minotaurus, the person you hate most is your own sister, Ariadne."

As her words fell, the red light in Minotaur's eyes dimmed, and he also let go of Loki and Hades. Ji Xi also heaved a sigh of relief, and then his legs slid limply and sat on the ground.

Loki rubbed his neck, walked over while coughing, and sat down as well: "It's really you who can answer this question correctly... I didn't expect it to be its sister."

The situation of Hades is not much better than that of Loki, but he can still stand against the wall: "I still can't understand the correct answer you said. What Ariadne did is better than Theseus , Minos, and even Poseidon are nothing, right?"

Ji Qi suddenly laughed: "Because that's his sister." She changed her personal pronouns and stopped using "it" to refer to Minotaur.

"Because that is the younger sister who had nothing to do with his birth, and did not cause any crime to him. She may be the only human being that Minotaur likes. The older brother always loves the younger sister."

"But in the end, it was the sister he liked who taught Theseus how to leave the maze and kill him. The betrayal of the one he loves more, the more painful it will be, and it will evolve into a deeper hatred. "

"Walking between love and hate is the most painful thing, and even death can't stop it."
