After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 1232

Chapter 1232: Points Are Here
“Be careful!” Xi Mo’s face suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly.

Fang Zichong and the others reacted quickly, stopping immediately when he spoke and quickly dodging.

Just in time, a dart landed behind the tree where Fang Zichong had just hidden. He curiously glanced at it and suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

The dart was shiny and emitted a pungent smell. Although he didn’t know what it was, just by smelling it, he started to feel dizzy.

He immediately covered his nose and quickly stepped back, distancing himself.

Xi Mo realized the dart was poisoned and grimly pulled out some pills from his bag, throwing them to the others and taking one himself.

This was Zhouzhou’s special antidote pill, capable of curing most poisons in the world.

After taking it, he looked at Fang Zichong and the others and asked, “How do you feel?”

Fang Zichong nodded, “I’m fine. Zhouzhou’s medicine is really good. After this is over, I have to get a few from her.”

He felt unusually clear-headed.

Hearing this, Xi Mo smiled, “Well, you’d better be prepared to pay.”

Zhouzhou, after all, specializes in charging her close ones the highest rates. She has a “family price” and a “friend price,” both of which are steep.

To money-hungry people, nothing is more important than money.

Except for Qin’s family and Ye Lingfeng, who can occasionally get some discount with Zhouzhou, everyone else can’t get any preferential treatment.

Especially since she holds grudges.

Fang Zichong had previously said something unpleasant, making her upset. Plus, he had the long legs she wanted most. The price she would charge him would definitely not be cheap.

Fang Zichong didn’t take this seriously and didn’t want to hear Xi Mo talk like this: “Captain Xi, don’t slander Fugui. Besides, her medicine is so good, so what’s wrong with her charging more? She deserves it.”

Xi Mo: “…”

Well, he had said all that for nothing.

He had forgotten that Fang Zichong was a hardcore fan of Zhouzhou. Even if she drove him to bankruptcy, he would still praise her.

Not wanting to talk to him anymore, Xi Mo rolled his eyes, uninterested in continuing the conversation.

After all, they were both willing participants, so what was there to worry about?

“How’s the rest? If there’s nothing wrong, let’s prepare,” he said gruffly.

This was the way to find Zhouzhou and reach the final circle, an unavoidable path.

Presumably, the one who set the traps had the same thought.

It was intentionally set up as a trap for them.

Staying here would get them “poisoned.”

If they managed to pass through, they were likely to be eliminated.

During this process, if they accidentally got hit by a dart in the heart or some other fatal spot, they could easily claim it was just a coincidence.

After all, they had all signed waivers before the competition.

Hah, it was all on purpose!

Xi Mo’s gaze grew colder as he glanced towards the cameras. He already knew what was going on.

It must have been orchestrated by the organizers.

They were clearly targeting them.

In order to eliminate them, they would stop at nothing. They weren’t even worried about the international conflicts that might arise if something happened to them.

But of course, they didn’t care. In fact, they were probably hoping for it.

How else could they explain all the provocations they had made over the years?

Grinding his teeth, he swore he wouldn’t let them succeed!

Even if a war broke out, he would never be their excuse.

Not a chance!

Fang Zichong and the others said, “We’re ready!”

The group exchanged glances. No more words were needed; they immediately understood what was going on.

Determined, they took a deep breath and rushed forward again in the direction they had been going.

The referees saw this and couldn’t help but laugh.

These traps had been carefully set by them, and they had tested them, with a success rate of only 1%.

They were just waiting for them to die!

Of course, the poison on the darts was just a mild tranquilizer. But they had also added something else inside them.

Something that would attract wild animals.

When they were attacked by the beasts before the staff could reach them, they couldn’t blame anyone.

It would all be an “accident.”

Looking at their expressions, the referees knew exactly what they were thinking.

Commander sneered.

They were dreaming!

If those guys had really succeeded, never mind saving them—even if they made it back alive, Zhouzhou wouldn’t have let them off.

Did they think all her training was for nothing? Wasting so much of her time and still being that useless—what face would they have to go back with?

Thinking about it, the Commander actually felt a bit excited. He really wanted to see their expressions in a moment.

The figures moved swiftly—before anyone could react, they were already halfway through—and unbelievably, not a single throwing dart had hit them.

Several of the judges’ eyes widened instantly.

What the—

How was that possible?!

How did they do that?!

If it were Xi Mo, they wouldn’t be surprised. They knew just how capable he was. But Fang Zichong and the others—how on earth did they manage this?

That brings it back to Zhouzhou.

She yelled at them every day—dignity and face? Irrelevant. They just didn’t want to let their idol down, didn’t want her to look down on them. So they gave it everything they had.

During the initial selection, the very first test was that deadly trap array. And that one was way harder than the one today.

They’d passed that—so this one? Piece of cake.

Watching the stunned expressions of the crowd, eyes practically falling out of their sockets, the general felt deeply satisfied.

So what if they wouldn’t let him send a warning ahead of time?

Turns out—there was no need to.

He stroked his chin and smiled slyly, “Oh, when was this trap set? I don’t remember anyone passing through here before.”

Hearing this, the referees exchanged uneasy glances and lied through their teeth, “Maybe it’s not the same place. After all, the forest looks pretty much the same.”

Nonsense.

They didn’t even believe it themselves.

The forest may look similar, but the positions of the cameras didn’t change. Were they really trying to make excuses, thinking he was an idiot?

He didn’t bother to argue with them, but mentally made a note of their actions. After the competition, he’d deal with them one by one!

Xi Mo and his team landed safely, without even a scratch.

After double-checking, Fang Zichong noticed his clothes had been torn by a dart. His face immediately turned bitter, like someone who had just lost their last hope.

It was over.

Not because he was afraid of poisoning.

It was because he feared Zhouzhou would again scold them saying, “You’re the worst batch I’ve ever trained.”

Terrifying. It was too terrifying.

They had all been praised growing up, but the moment they met Zhouzhou, their pride was completely crushed.

They couldn’t act all high and mighty anymore. Not at all.

Even Xi Mo was thinking the same.

He was a grown man, and he couldn’t let his niece talk down to him like that.

Fang Zichong lowered his head sadly and walked toward Zhouzhou’s direction, hoping she wouldn’t notice.

Zhouzhou was focused on one thing—points. She needed those points!

Suddenly, the sound of footsteps reached her ears, and Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up. Points were coming!
