Chapter 19: People die for money


Xiangnu angrily kicked a pinch of dirt beside his feet, thinking of Yu Su’s words, he was worried and scared, for fear that Yu Su would go mad and turn his face and not recognize anyone.


And after what happened just now, Xiang Nu also discovered that Yu Su Could enter the Holy City, and could also penetrate his room through the cracks. Yu Su did not lie to him nor did he exaggerate his ability. Xiangnu really couldn’t escape from him.


Since you couldn’t escape, just lie down and enjoy it. In the end, Xiangnu still had a good impression of Yu Su. Aside from the ghost identity, Yu Su was his absolute ideal type.


But now It’s not a question of whether he accepted Yu Su or not. Now it was a question of whether Yu Su will crush him to death after he came out of this copy.


‘I should take advantage of this copy to think about how to restore my relationship with Yu Su and control his manic state from time to time.


Ah… that’s right.


He has entered a new dungeon, and the top priority was to clear the dungeon in front of him and walk out of it alive.’


Xiangnu’s attention finally returned to the copy in front of him, and he focused on observing the surrounding environment.


At this moment, Xiangnu was alone on a mountain. The mountain was not high. Xiangnu was just below the top of the mountain. There were no trees around. There was grass growing on the ground that could bury his ankles. Many of them were unnamed white-yellow flowers.


The mountain was like a ring as it was surrounded by a row of houses with neat red bricks and green tiles. The houses looked very new and beautiful. Most of the people had high chimneys, from which white mists were floating out. From some of them, no mist was flowing out. On the walls of these houses, there was a red flag fluttering in the wind but there was no pattern on the red flag.


Xiangnu stood on the mountain and looked down for a while and after seeing the dozen or so families, he had some points in his heart.


Then he climbed to the top of the mountain again and found that on the other side of the mountain was a small river with a width of nearly a thousand meters. Of course, Xiangnu could not estimate the distance, he could only feel that the river was very wide and the bank was far away from him.


The small river circled the mountain like a ring, and it spread along the route of the hill. Xiangnu had not walked around the mountain to see what was on the other side of the mountain. If the foot of the mountain was the same as here, then this long river had no end. Then the place where Xiangnu was, and the location of this dungeon mission was an isolated island.


Xiang Nu frowned without saying a word, his expression became a little solemn. He always felt uneasy in his heart.


Xiangnu stood very high, and there were no trees on the mountain, so the location and vision were very advantageous. From his position, everything on the mountain and at the foot of the mountain could be seen.


Xiangnu waited in place for a while and saw that no one appeared, so he could only walk down the mountain by himself and walked towards the village at the foot of the mountain.


There were about twenty households in the village, and he didn’t know if it was because it was lunchtime, everyone was cooking at home, and there was no one outside. It’s very lonely and quiet.


Xiangnu walked to the flat ground and looked around to choose the direction when a wild bark suddenly sounded next to him. The young man tensed his back suddenly and saw that in the small vegetable garden in front of the house in front of him, there was a fat black dog who was glaring at him and kept howling at him.


After the dog barked, the surrounding houses finally opened their doors, and several heads came out to look around, and after seeing Xiangnu, they stopped on him.


Xiang Nu blinked and quickly calmed down. He calmly swept over them one by one and looked at the heads of those protruding from the cracks in the door.


After meeting Xiangnu’s gaze, those people retracted their heads and closed the door again.


The yard in front of Xiangnu opened the door, and an old man with short stature in a long grey coat walked out. There were several people behind him. They were also looking at Xiangnu. There were both men and women. The clothes they wore were very delicate, exquisite modern clothes, completely different from the style of the old man who was coming to Xiangnu.


The old man walked up to Xiangnu and looked at him. He paused for a few seconds when he saw Xiangnu’s eyes, and then asked, “You are from one of the blind old three families. Why did you come only now?”


Xiangnu hesitated. Although the old man’s expression and tone were quite normal, the topic of questioning proved that he still cared about Xiangnu’s lateness. If Xiangnu didn’t answer well, he didn’t know if something would happen.


Xiangnu looked a little nervous, and his fingers couldn’t help grabbing his black trousers, because of his action, his trousers were tightened. The trousers were lifted a little, exposing a large part of the skin around the ankle.


The old man followed his movements and glanced down, and after seeing the black pattern on Xiangnu’s ankle, he suddenly let out a groan, pointed to it and asked Xiangnu, “What’s wrong with this thing on your foot, where did you get it from?”


Xiang Nu lightly licked the corner of his lower lip, moistened the slightly dry lips, and replied, “I accidentally tripped over a vine on the road, and then left this mark.”


The old man frowned and glanced coldly at Xiangnu, and snorted heavily, “For the sake of seeing you have a reason, I’ll let you go this time, and if I’m late again next time, I won’t let it go so easily!”


Xiangnu replied softly, and the old man turned around and went back to the house with his hands behind his back, “Follow me!”


Xiang Nu followed him into the room, and the few people who were peeking at the door immediately dispersed, and the other group of people stood on the left side of the hall. They just looked at him quietly when Xiang Nu came in.


The old man ignored them, walked to the right seat in the hall, sat down, took a sip from the porcelain jar on the table next to him, and then tapped the legs to attract the attention of the people in the living room.


There were a total of six people in the living room, five men and one woman.


The old man glanced at the clothes on them, and said with some disgust, “What kind of clothes are you wearing, Qingfeng, take them to your room first, and quickly change all of their clothes for me.”


When the old man finished his words, a chubby child dressed in the same style as the old man’s long coat lifted the curtain of the room on the right and walked out from behind. The child glanced sideways at a few people, and said lightly, “Come with me.”


After speaking, he walked out of the hall. Several people in the room glanced at the old man hesitantly. The old man held the porcelain jar with a heavy expression and they didn’t know what he was thinking.


Several people followed the child out and entered the house on the left.


There were two rooms in the house, one was the kitchen, and the other was the bedroom. The walls were dusty and mouldy, and there was a window covered with iron nets, with dust and cobwebs all around the window frame.


A little in front of the window was a long square table with four benches on all sides.


The bed was against the wall opposite the window. It was of Datong style. There was a straw mat, a quilt and a few pillows on it. There were chairs on the left and right sides of the bed. A loose-coloured wooden cabinet.


The plump child pulled the cabinet open and tiptoed to get things, but he was too short.


Xiangnu stepped forward silently and asked, “Qingfeng, do you want me to pick you up?”


Qingfeng nodded hurriedly, and said while nodding, “Yes, yes, but next time don’t call me by my name, call me Brother Qingfeng or Senior Brother. Master hates people who have no rules or rules, who are subordinate, if you call me by my name and Master hears you, he will definitely punish you.”


Xiangnu nodded thoughtfully, and Qingfeng asked again, “What’s your name, little junior brother?”


Xiangnu said softly, “My name is Xiangnu.”


He bent down and picked up Qingfeng. The moment he picked it up, he almost let go of Qingfeng. It was Ding Zeming who was behind him who responded quickly.


However, Ding Zeming’s expression twisted a bit after he took over, and he dragged along with Xiangnu to barely hold Qingfeng.


Ding Zeming couldn’t help but say, “Brother Qingfeng is a heavyweight!”


The little fat man, Qingfeng, glanced at him condescendingly, with a look of disdain for talking nonsense with him. After pulling out a few pieces of clothes from the second floor of the cabinet, he jumped directly from Xiangnu’s arms. Heavily hitting the ground, causing a burst of dust, even shaking the ground as if Mount Tai was thrown over.


The ‘heavyweight’ that Ding Zeming said about him was true.


Qingfeng arrogantly raised his chin full of three layers of flesh, and handed the clothes in his hand to Xiangnu “Stop talking nonsense, you guys quickly change your clothes! After changing, you will line up in sequence to meet the Master! Follow the order, the young are not allowed to walk in front of the elders! Anyway, the master will be angry, remember!”


After he was about to leave, Xiangnu quickly pulled his hand lightly but then quickly released it.


However, Qingfeng’s attention was already attracted to him, so he stopped to look at him and asked, “Little Junior Brother, why are you touching me?”


Xiang Nu’s eyebrows jumped and he said gently, “I want to ask Senior Brother Qingfeng, what is the sequence you are talking about?”


The other five arrived before him, and Xiangnu didn’t know if they knew the sequence.


But Qingfeng didn’t answer directly, he just said, “You are the little junior brother.”


After speaking, he was about to leave but the female tasker quickly grabbed Qingfeng and asked, “Senior Brother Qingfeng, what about us?”


“Fifth Junior Sister, don’t get in my way, I have to rush to see Master!”


After he finished speaking, he pushed the female tasker away and ran out.


Xiangnu narrowed his eyes when he saw Zhong Liyun running up to ask the little fat man, and after Qingfeng left. He looked at the other people whose faces had changed, and asked, “That old… master didn’t explain anything about it?”


A few people nodded in confusion, Xiangnu sighed softly, and said, “I’m the youngest brother, I’m sure to be the last one in the row, and there are six of us. It stands to reason that this…”


The fifth senior sister is a woman in her thirties, not pretty but with a clean face and the expression between her eyebrows was also very refreshing and capable, “My name is Zhong Liyun.”


Xiangnu nodded and calmly analyzed, “This Miss Zhong is ranked fifth, and it is likely that she will be standing in front of me, but just now Qingfeng also asked us to call him senior brother. If he is also considered in our ranking, Miss Zhong will be in the sixth position. Our positions will be one position down, because…”


Xiang Nu paused and carefully observed the expressions of these teammates. They were all calm and listened carefully. They seemed to be people who were easy to get along with. Xiang Nu continued, “Because There are probably other senior brothers in the small room where Qingfeng was before. Before Qingfeng came out, I didn’t hear any sound in that room but we can’t rule out this possibility.”


Zhong Liyun twitched the corners of her lips, but her expression was never relaxed, so it was obvious that she had thought of this before.


Xiangnu saw all the changes in her expression and understood that this time his teammates were quite reliable, so he didn’t have to be that early bird, and the order could be completely guessed by them.


Originally, in the last copy, he found the most clues and laws. He didn’t want to do the same this time and make decisions for others.


Everyone was still waiting for Xiangnu’s next analysis. Seeing Xiangnu keep his head down and focus on the clothes in his hands, they immediately understood what he meant.


The young man who supported Qingfeng for Xiangnu said, “For the time being, the order is still clear, and it’s not good for everyone to be addressed as senior brothers and sisters, to facilitate communication, let’s introduce ourselves first, my name is Ding Zeming.”


Ding Zeming had a tall and straight body, and his appearance was not as beautiful as Xiangnu’s, but he could be called handsome. A handsome guy who looked very serious.


Xiangnu tilted his head and raised his thin lips, and introduced himself with a light smile, “Hello, my name is Xiangnu, but now you can call me Junior Brother directly.”


Ding Zeming’s gaze couldn’t help falling in Xiangnu’s face, stopping for a few seconds before moving away.


The young man beside him stabbed him with his arm and elbow, and said with a smile, “Brother Ding, stop looking, your eyes are going to fall off.”


Xiangnu cast a suspicious look at them, Ding Zeming calmly pushed the young man aside, and said calmly, “Don’t talk nonsense.”


The young man didn’t care either and smiled heartily “Hello everyone, my name is Miao Dong.”


Xiangnu asked casually, “Does it read ‘seconds’?”


Miao Dong said quickly, “It’s Miao, the second sound, Dong, the first sound!”


Xiang Nu looked at the other two young people, who seemed to be a little reticent from their expressions, and only said their names when introducing themselves.


“My name is Shu Jian.”


“Jiang, Chao.”


Xiangnu’s eyes swept across the faces of these five people only to feel ordinary. He didn’t know what he looked like.


From childhood to adulthood, everyone had admired him for his exquisiteness and beauty and then regretted that no one was perfect. He was too perfect, so he had a pair of flawed eyes.


As a result, Xiangnu had been complaining about his appearance for a while when he was a child. If he looked very ordinary, maybe he would not have eye problems.


Of course, when he grew up, he knew that this statement was a fallacy. His eye disease was congenitally brought out of the mother’s womb, and it would not be better or worse because of his appearance.


And not only should he not be resentful, but he should even be glad that he has such a delicate and beautiful face. It was because it kept him from being disgusted and kept away by everyone when he had such a pair of defective eyes, but instead attracted a lot of pity and love.


But Xiangnu looked at these people in front of him, and really couldn’t understand how good-looking he was.


Like them, he only had two eyes, a nose and a mouth. If he was good-looking, it was estimated that he looked very pleasing to the eye of people like Ding Zeming. How beautiful could he even be?


Xiangnu thought of his appearance, and inevitably he thought of Yu Su who scared him into the copy.


He thought resentfully, if Yu Su showed up later, he would be able to see his face.


If Xiang Nu could see his own face clearly, perhaps he would have been more confident in facing Yu Su and would not have been scared away.


Xiangnu sighed lightly for no reason, which made the hearts of the other five tense, thinking that something had happened.


T/N: I was a little busy, late update. I guess, this month will be chaotic. But will try my best. If you like what I am doing, feel free to support me.😊
