36. THE GOD’S GAME.

 

“Boom—”

Everyone was shocked, and they raised their heads to look at the cloudless sky.

“Boom——”

Immediately afterwards, the thunder exploded again, as if the sky was about to explode, and the sound was earth-shattering.

Nian Gao’s legs gave way, and he was so frightened that he knelt down.

Lao Liu looked at Nian Gao on the ground, then at the sky, and suddenly remembered something, his lips trembled, he fell to his knees, and murmured: “The game of the gods. this is the game of the gods, it’s about to begin again.”

Hearing this, the high-ranking slave who was passing by carrying grain was so frightened that all the grain in his hands fell to the ground.

Others people also quickly realized what was about to happen. They hurriedly knelt on the ground, begging for mercy: “Oh merciful gods, please spare us.”

They kneeled and kowtowed with such force that their knees and foreheads started bleeding.

 

Bao Ye looked at the clear sky above his head and frowned. He had heard his adoptive father talk about the game of gods. Whenever his adoptive father mentioned this matter, he would show a look of lingering fear. But he had never experienced it himself, so couldn’t understand the feelings of his adoptive father.

But from the ugly slave’s memory, he saw the cruel side of the upper gods again.

The gods of the upper world will use their divine power to set off various natural disasters in the lower world from time to time, causing the slaves to fall into pain, despair, panic, and death, and then take pleasure in watching the slaves struggling with life.
The game of the gods is very cruel. Every time it happens, many slaves will die. The masters of the lower world never stop the gods from killing their slaves. Instead, they will follow the gods to watch the slaves survive in various dangers, Betting on their lives.

The corner of Dong Ling Ce’s mouth curled up, and he asked Bao Ye and Jin Lingrui, “why aren’t you two brothers kneeling?”

Jin Lingrui took out a cigarette from his pocket and said calmly, ” can Kneeling stop the gods from playing games?”

Bao Ye curled his lips: “thinking of a way out is better than kneeling.”

Jin Lingrui, who was about to light a cigarette, heard this, put the cigarette back in his pocket, and walked over and ask his kneeling men to resume their work.

Dong Ling Ce looked at Jin Lingrui who was helping others: “That night, why did you intent to kill him?”

Bao Ye rolled his eyes and said, “I was possessed.”
Dong Ling Ce didn’t believe what he said, but he didn’t intend to investigate further. , turned to look at him and asked: “Let’s guess what god’s game is this time?”

Bao Ye sneered: “Do you still need to guess? In my heart, you and them are in the same group, you both like to play games with people so much.”

The only difference is that Dong Ling Ce has not until now risked a human life.

Dong Ling Ce raised the corners of his lips: “Yes, we are all the same. Use your butt to copy the Diamond Sutra later.”

 

The corner of Bao Ye’s mouth twitched. Damn, who can write it with butt?

 

He made an excuse and said: “I don’t know how to write.”

“Copy.”

Bao Ye smiled and said: “I can’t even see the words with my eyes, how can I copy?”

“Look with your ass.”

Bao Ye’s forehead was covered with black lines: “The ass hole needs to hold the pen to write, so I can’t read.”

 

Dong Ling Ce chuckled; this person is really funny. The people around heard the laughter and looked at them one after another. Jin Lingrui stared at Bao Ye thoughtfully.

Bao Ye didn’t bother to deal with this psycho, so he turned around and went to the Ministry of Health.

Soon, Nian Gao and Lao Liu also helped each other back to the Ministry of Health, their faces were ashen.

Bao Ye raised his eyebrows: “Isn’t it too early for you to put on this dead face before the game of the gods has even started?”

Nian Gao shouted fearfully: “It’s not like you don’t know that once it’s started many people will die, even high-level slaves will not escape, we are dead, we are dead.”

 

Lao Liu said in a hoarse voice: “My parents, second brother, third brother and seventh brother are all Died in the game of gods.”

Bao Ye: “…”

At this time, Wang Qiao also came back, and sat on the chair weakly, saying, “I don’t know what kind of catastrophe will it be this time.”

The Ministry of Health was dead silent.

“Thunderstorms, gusts, floods and plague.” Bao Ye said suddenly.

Lao Liu and the others stared at him blankly.

“The plague is the worst of all. There is no medicine for it and it will be contagious, and a large number of people will die in the end.”

Bao Ye frowned: “You should prepare in advance.”

 

He said this based on what his adoptive father told him and about this matter.
Nian Gao sneered: “as if it will be true.”
Bao Ye glanced at him and said nothing, after all, he was also not sure.
The atmosphere at the construction site was very gloomy, even the deacons, who always been superior air, were sullen. in the god’s game, they would also suffer together with the slaves.

After work in the afternoon, Bao Ye returned to the dormitory. The slaves all lowered their heads and did not speak. After receiving their dinner, they sat on their seats and ate silently.

As usual, Bao Ye gave Jiang Yu his meal.

This time, Jiang Yu not only didn’t take the meal, but put his own bowl beside him.

Bao Ye asked concerned: “No appetite?”

Jiang Yu said in a low voice: “I’m going to die, how can I have the appetite to eat.”

Bao Ye laughed: “The game of gods hasn’t started yet, how are you so sure you’re going to die?”

“I am this old, how can I avoid the game of the gods.” Jiang Yu sighed: “I have lived enough of this life, and I am also tired of it.”

He lost his vitality and instantly aged a lot.

Bao Ye stuffed the bowl into his hand: “It’s really easy to die, hit your head against a wall, I guarantee you will die.”

Jiang Yu immediately glared at him: “can’t You say something nice to comfort me?”

Bao Ye said with a smile, “If you need comfort, it means you don’t want to die. You have to eat and fill your stomach so that you have the strength to survive.”

Jiang Yu glanced at the pillar next to him, he really couldn’t muster up the courage to seek death, so he picked up the bowl and gobbled up the food.

After turning off the lights at night, suddenly, countless silver lights flashed in the sky, illuminating the tent. Then, thunder rang out, louder and more terrifying than in the morning, and the ground shook.
Everyone woke and sat up one after another.

The lightning outside was like a lamp that was about to go out, flashing wildly, and the thunder exploded one after another like setting off firecrackers. The slaves were so frightened that they hid under the covers and dared not go out.

Bao Ye’s bed was right next to the window, and when he got up to look, in the distance, lightning bolts were as thick as long as skyscrapers hit the ground from the sky.

Because the line of sight was blocked, he couldn’t see too far away, but he, who possessed divine power, could clearly hear the lightning hitting some places with a deafening sound.

Bao Ye sat back on the bed.

Jiang Yu poked his head out and asked, “Ugly slave, what did you see?”

Bao Ye said truthfully, “It’s full of lightning outside.”

Jiang Yu’s face paled: “this must be the game of the gods.”

Lao Luo on the opposite bed heard them chatting and sighed: “I hope the thunder and lightning will not hit us.”

The slave next to his bed was trembling with fright.

It was near dawn when the thunder stopped.

Everyone didn’t sleep well all night, were just about to fall asleep, they were woken up by the deacon to go to work.

On the way to the construction site, Bao Ye saw several huge pits bombarded by lightning, and there was still a strong burned smell.

The slaves in the carriage gasped when they saw the big craters that was blown out.

“It’s terrible. If the lightning strikes our slaves’ dorm, we are done for.”

“I hope the gods will stop thundering.”

“We should pray to them.”

Bao Ye listened to the prayers of the slaves all the way, and reached the construction site’s health department.

Nian Gao, who has always disdained Bao Ye, saw him, and immediately said: “Ugly slave, some people in Xicheng District were killed by lightning last night. Their bodies were either scorched or split in half. It’s terrible. Ah, I don’t know which city’s people will be unlucky next time.”

Before Bao Ye could speak, Lao Liu and Wang Qiao ran in with shocking expressions on their faces.

Nian Gao asked, “What’s the matter with you guys?”

Wang Qiao sat on the chair in a state of exhaustion, “I saw a lot of dead bodies on the way here.”

“Me, me too.” Lao Liu wiped his sweat and said, ” Not only did I see the dead body, I also saw a terrible thing.”

Bao Ye asked curiously: “What?”

I saw some people went to rescue people who were still alive, but was electrocuted to death by the remaining electricity on their bodies.”

Nian Gao looked terrified: “Is this a warning from the gods? We are not allowed to save others?”

“Lao Liu thought for a while, then nodded: “It is very possible.”

“Master Jin? Is Master Jin there?” There was a sound at the door Deacon Tao’s voice.

Bao Ye looked at the door: “I’m here, what’s it?”

Deacon Tao yawned as he walked in and said, “Master told me to come over and see if you’re dead, it’s fine if you’re not dead, he can play with you for a while.”

Bao Ye rolled his eyes angrily, “Thank you for his concern.”

Deacon Tao yawned, “Master won’t come to the construction site today, so you can stay at the department of Health.”

“Okay.”

After the deacon left, Nian Gao said enviously, “Master really cares about you.”

Bao Ye was speechless, where did he see that Dong Ling Ce cared about him?

Lao Liu yawned: “Get some sleep while you don’t have work, maybe there will be more terrible things waiting for us.”

Nian Gao and Wang Qiao nodded and went to sleep on the table.

Bao Ye didn’t feel sleepy, so he left the Ministry of Health with his car keys, drove the garbage truck to the construction site, and found that the construction site had been set up as a barrier, preventing wind and lightning from entering.

“This seal is amazing.”

Bao Ye has seen the barriers made by the upper gods, and he can be sure that this spell in front of him is not inferior to upper gods, is even powerful than them, which made him more and more curious about Dong Ling Ce. Why has he never heard of this person’s name after staying in the upper realm for so many years.
