When Gu Ning opened his eyes again, there was an endless white in front of him.
He looked around, but there was no trace of the secondary system, and he called a few times, but did not get the slightest response.
Gu Ning frowned.
He took a closer look around and found that although this space was similar to the space of the sub-system, it was more empty and deep than the space of the sub-system.
The pure white that can't be seen at a glance, like the boundless sea, brings a deep and dignified sense of depression.
After walking around for a while, Gu Ning, who didn't find any exit, exhaled slowly, suppressed the bad feeling in his heart, and talked to 009 in his mind.
"009, why is the pattern on Chen Wen's arm the same color as the pattern on my waist?"
"Do you know why?"
Gu Ning's question made 009 not know how to answer it.
First of all, it is not sure whether it was done by the devil.If it is, even if it tells Gu Ning, it will only increase troubles, without any benefit.
After much deliberation, 009 chose to conceal it.
"I don't know how they are related," it said.
"Or it's a coincidence." 009 said.
Gu Ning subconsciously felt that something was wrong, his inspiration had always been high, and he would not have such a subtle disgust for no reason.
It was as if the rose pattern on Chen Wen's arm was something extremely dirty.
But 009's evasive appearance, which obviously didn't want to say more, made Gu Ning frowned slightly, and his reddish lips were slightly pursed. He asked 009: "If I recover all my memories, will you tell me all this?"
"Including my true identity, why I live in the human world, and—"
In Gu Ning's light-colored eyes, there was a sharp light shining, 009 seemed to see its young and energetic master.
"—why should I die?"
009 was silent for a moment.
There was a soft "hmm".
——On the day when the memory is restored, 009 will tell you everything.
——009 is willing to offer you all loyalty, my master.
This question didn't get the desired answer, Gu Ning asked 009 again: "Have you collected the energy of the courtship dance?"
Mentioning this, 009 gets angry.
It hadn't memorized it so much before, and 009 got angry and said cursingly: "It's all the fault of that sea elf. If it was a little later, I would be able to collect energy. Damn it!"
Gu Ning was silent for a few seconds, and opened his lips to ask.
"So, my dance was for nothing?"
——And his confession was also in vain?
009 whispered
: "There is no intimacy, so there is no energy."
Seeing that Gu Ning's face was not very good, it said again: "But I also collected a little, it's not like I didn't gain anything!"
Gu Ning closed his eyes and said softly, "Show me."
After the words fell, he closed his eyes, went deep into the depths of his consciousness, and looked at the energy collected by 009.
Hearing this, 009 hurriedly hid the energy cluster.
But this is Gu Ning's sea of consciousness, how could it hide the energy ball without telling Gu Ning.
So Gu Ning saw the energy cluster, which was no bigger than a palm, hidden behind 009.
Gu Ning didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only remain silent.
009 looked at the energy cluster and whispered, "This, this is not small."
Under Gu Ning's gaze, its voice became lower and lower: "If you save five more, you can fuse another fragment of the soul."
"What about power?" Gu Ning asked 009.
009 carefully looked at Gu Ning's expression, and said: "This, this little energy, I'm afraid it can only restore one-twentieth of Ning Ning's strength."
Gu Ning: "..."
So his dance was for nothing?
Tired and nervous, I finished the courtship dance and got nothing, not even a response to my confession.
The more I thought about it, the worse it became, and I faced the .jpg with a smile.
009 was about to say something to comfort its owner, lest the owner be too angry and bad for his health.
Sudden.A figure appeared in the pure white space.
[Congratulations to the player for successfully passing the level]
[Now let's judge the player's performance in the copy]
[The performance is unqualified and will be downgraded]
Gu Ning looked up when he heard the sound, and saw a thick black light group slowly drifting from a distance.
The malice contained in the light cluster made Gu Ning frowned slightly, and the slender eyelashes covered the emotions in his eyes.
The thick black light group introduced itself.
[Hello player, I am the main god distracted, you can call me No. 2]
Gu Ning raised his eyelids slightly, unable to figure out why the main god was so distracted that he wanted to call this stupid name.
After he greeted No. 2, No. 2 calculated Gu Ning's performance in the dungeon.
Skip over the sweet process of getting along with Gu Ning and Edward, and look at the result directly.
No. 2 concluded.
[The player's performance in the dungeon is not bad, it needs to work hard]
Gu Ning's bright red lips pursed slightly, but she didn't answer.
After finishing the judgment, No. 2 suddenly leaned into Gu Ning's fair ear and said softly.
[You have been targeted for so long in the dungeon, don't you want to resist the past? 】
【for example--】
No. 2 talked to Gu Ning in a bewitching manner.
【Kill them all】
Gu Ning's long eyelashes were slightly drawn, and he glanced at No. 2 lightly, and said indifferently: "If there is nothing else, I'm going back to rest."
On the 2nd, seeing that Gu Ning didn't like this, he couldn't help being a little surprised.
It snorted coldly, as if saying that Gu Ning didn't know good from bad.
When the teleportation array was opened, No. 2 intentionally created the wrong location and let Gu Ning enter the instance.
After Gu Ning disappeared into the space, No. 2 lazily said to the main god.
"He doesn't like this, you should try to lure him in another way."
The Lord God remained silent, quietly watching Gu Ning's back.
After a long time, it said: "He has a repulsion towards us, and it really should be changed."
Number 2 asked the Lord God, "What are you going to do?"
The Lord God said, "I need to think again."
"By the way, you can negotiate with that person."
A halo flashed around the main god, and he took No. 2 back to his territory.
Hearing this, No. 2 said impatiently, "Why don't you go."
It complained: "That man is a lunatic. I don't fight like a lunatic. When a lunatic fights, he doesn't play cards according to the routine. Last time, he beat me until my soul collapsed. I..."
The Lord God severely interrupted No. 2's words.
"What soul?"
Its serious police No. 2: "Don't say such things in the future, you are a bunch of data, what kind of soul, let me hear it again, you go and be with that lunatic!"
Number 2 knew that he had made a slip of the tongue and didn't say anything. After a while, he agreed to the Lord God's words and went to negotiate terms with that annoying lunatic.
In fact, No. 2 can't see through the main god. Although they are one body and two souls, the main god is the fusion product of the main body and the inner demon after all, with unpredictable strength and unpredictable temperament.
Number 2 sighed. To be honest, he missed his big brother a little.
Hey, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to have such a main body as the main god.
-
After a whirlwind.
After Gu Ning opened his eyes, he reached the next copy.
His thick and slender brows were slightly frowned, and his eyelashes were slightly drawn. After a while, he raised his eyelids, looked around, and found that this place seemed to be a small town.
Shouldn't he be at the transfer station now?
Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Gu Ning pretended to be nonchalant and looked at everything around him.
Surrounded by lively streets.
Gu Ning lowered his eyes, with a look of surprise under his long eyelashes.
What he was wearing at the moment was a plain robe, not only that, but his hair reached his waist, and his long hair was loosely tied behind his head by a hair band.
If Gu Ning brushes his long hair in front of him, he will see a white silk flower on the hairband.
Not only is there a white flower on the headband, but also a white flower is embroidered on the clothes on his left arm.
However, Gu Ning didn't notice this at this time, he was listening carefully to the task of the dungeon system.
The dungeon system of this world is different from other dungeons.
In the past, the dungeon system gave Gu Ning the feeling that he was like a cold robot, and his tone of voice did not have a trace of popularity.
But the dungeon system in this world made Gu Ning feel a little bit of popularity.
The dungeon system slowly fell from the sky, because it was split into several copies, so the figure was relatively weak.
It greets Gu Ning.
【welcome】
Gu Ning also nodded and said hello to the dungeon system.
The copy system said.
[Congratulations to the player for successfully advancing to level 5. The following game rules will be different from the player's previous dungeons]
【Please listen to me carefully】
Gu Ning nodded and said that he would listen carefully.
The dungeon system began to explain the rules of the game slowly.
[Starting from this dungeon, players will have a specific avatar in the dungeon]
[Example: butcher, vendor, doctor, etc.]
[The character of each dungeon player will change with the background of the dungeon, and the character design will be random]
Gu Ning silently listened to the explanation of the dungeon system, and he cleared up his previous knowledge of the dungeon.
Under the long eyelashes, there is an unknown color.
The dungeon system is still going on.
The townspeople passing by all looked at Gu Ning with pity.
Gu Ning blinked his long eyelashes, looking at the people coming and going for no apparent reason, thinking that he was standing in the middle of the road blocking others from walking, so he walked into a teahouse and found a secluded place to sit down.
Xiaoer brought up a pot of tea, and after seeing Gu Ning's attire, he said: "My condolences." Then he left.
Gu Ning didn't understand what Xiaoer meant, but this didn't prevent him from listening to the dungeon system.
The copy system said.
[Now I will explain the background of this dungeon to the players]
[The place where the player is located is Water Town]
[Water Town, as the name suggests, is a town by the lake]
[People in the small town believe in the river god in the river behind the town. Every year at the end of spring, they will present a beautiful bride and a boat full of sacrifices to the river god]
【At the end of spring again, an infectious disease suddenly appeared in the town. People who get sick will have a human face growing on their backs】
【Personally known as ghost face sore】
[There is no doctor in the town who can cure this sore, all the people who got the disease did not live past the spring, they all died at the end of spring]
[Ghost-faced sores appear every year when offering sacrifices to the River God. This year is the fifth year of ghost-faced sores]
[The new young mayor of the town heard about the ghost face sores and plans to abolish the activity of offering sacrifices to the river god]
[On the day of voting, the mayor disappeared]
[There are still three hours before the mayor disappears, please rush to the mayor's house as soon as possible to protect the mayor from being taken away by mysterious creatures]
After Gu Ning finished listening, he asked the dungeon system: "What is my mission?"
The copy system said.
[Player, don't worry, I will always be by the player's side and issue tasks to the player]
[Players can relax, I will pretend to be deaf and dumb when I shouldn’t see or listen, and when I don’t issue tasks, I usually leave and won’t stay by the player’s side all the time]
【And, ask the player to find out the suspicious people around you】
When Gu Ning heard this, he blinked his long eyelashes and looked at the dungeon system in puzzlement.
The copy system said.
[The players in this dungeon each have a negative vote. When other players vote for their ID number, they can use the negative vote to cancel a vote]
[There will be two rounds of voting. The player’s ID code is widow. If the player is identified as voting by other code players, the player with the highest number of votes will be punished by downgrading.]
[Other ID codes are in the bracelet, players can check them through the bracelet]
Gu Ning blinked his eyelashes, with a look of surprise and bewilderment.
widow?What widow?Who is the widow?
next second.Gu Ning just listened to the dungeon system.
[Players please receive the V copy of the character set]
[Personality is being generated——]
[Your identity, player—a widow]
Gu Ning: "?"
The dungeon system was afraid that Gu Ning didn't understand, so it repeated it again.
[This is the character set of the player in the V copy]
【A widow whose husband just died】
[Players are requested to play the role carefully, don't be seen by other code-named players]
[Reminder: There are 10 code names in this dungeon, but there are only five real players. Players are requested to vote carefully and cherish the opportunity to vote. If one real player is voted for, the player's level will increase by one level. Otherwise, there will be no penalty. If voted Number one, downgraded]
Gu Ning: "..."
How is this different from role playing?
No, there is still a difference.
Gu Ning thought indifferently.
At least cosplay isn't punishing.
Gu Ning swallowed the spit that came to his mouth.
He suddenly remembered the way passers-by looked at him just now, and a burst of speechless embarrassment permeated his side.
The dungeon system didn't quite understand Gu Ning's embarrassment, it left a word and disappeared.
[Please don't forget to burn incense and some paper for your husband, otherwise he will be angry]
Gu Ning silently clenched his fists.
When he got back to the transfer station, he had to interrogate Ming Zhi whether he had any enmity with the V copy.
Otherwise, how can I explain it? Given such an embarrassing character design for him, the merchant character design is better than the widow lady's character design!
He took a sip of the tea, and the bitter taste permeated his lips and tongue.
Gu Ning clicked on the bracelet to check other codenames.
Good guy, everyone is better than his character.
Vendors, medical boys, mayor's butlers, teahouse owners, shop assistants, butchers, jade shop owners, sacrificial apprentices, and widows.
Gu Ning closed the bracelet with a cold face, and took a big sip of tea, which was really embarrassing. Among the long list of code names, his is the most eye-catching.
A bitter taste in his mouth made him temporarily forget the embarrassment caused by the code name.
At this time, a shop waiter came over, and he specially brought a plate of dishes to Gu Ning's side.
Gu Ning glanced, it was a plate of peanuts.
The waiter put down the peanuts, but he didn't leave immediately, but asked Gu Ning: "Widow? This character is really perfect, hahahaha."
"Don't you think this character is not tall at all?"
"What character design? What tallness? I don't understand what you are talking about?"
Gu Ning slightly pursed his red lips, thinking of his character design, he silently bit his lower lip with a sad expression on his face.
The waiter still wanted to say something to stimulate Gu Ning, but he was fascinated by Gu Ning's expression. Before his hand touched Gu Ning's shoulder, and before he could speak softly, he was caught by other people in the teahouse. The person is pressed on the table.
A strong man said to Gu Ning: "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid. Let's see how I, Mr. Hu, teach this dirty-mouthed bastard a lesson!"
When Gu Ning was at a loss, the man named Hu Laoer beat up the shop boy solidly.
Gu Ning was stunned, and the people next to him rushed over to fight, and the waiter who hit him was crying for his father and mother.
The owner of the teahouse came out in a hurry, and when he saw the situation, he apologized.
But Hu Lao Er refused to stop, he didn't want to let the shop Xiao Er go like this, and he didn't stop until he beat the shop Xiao Er until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he cried and said that he was wrong.
Hu Laoer, the owner of the teahouse, is muscular and dare not offend him, so after a few good words, he will let people leave you.
As for the waiter in the shop, he was scolded by the owner of the teahouse.
The scolding words are all dialects that Gu Ning doesn't understand well.
So Gu Ning, who drank Bawang tea, left the teahouse with Hu Laoer and a bunch of people.
Hu Laoer was worried about Gu Ning and insisted on sending Gu Ning back.
Seeing Gu Ning's weak look, Hu Lao Er sighed and advised Gu Ning to take care of his body.
"Sister-in-law, with your appearance, if the elder brother is still alive, he must be very distressed."
Gu Ning was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole in the ground and get in.
Hu Laoer and a group of people escorted Gu Ning home.
On the way, Gu Ning revealed his identity and the "husband" he had never met before without a trace.
"Hey, if it wasn't for the big brother rushing out on a mission, such a thing wouldn't have happened."
"Little sister-in-law, it's only been three days since my eldest brother passed away, yet someone dares to bully you like this, is it like a man's brother died?!"
"Don't worry, little sister-in-law, with our brothers around, we will definitely not let you drink the northwest wind."
"What northwest wind do you want to drink? The elder brother left a sum of money and a good tavern for the younger sister-in-law. As for your brat to help?"
"The sound of the tavern is not easy to do now, hurry up and let us brothers go to the tavern to see if the grandson dares to find something?!"
At the door of the house, Gu Ning had a clear understanding of the pride of his "husband".
Compared with the previous dungeons, although this dungeon is a bit embarrassing, this house is the best ever.
Although the old castle is good, it is very empty and unpopular.This mansion clearly has a breath of life.
After sending Hu Laoer and the others away, Gu Ning opened the door, and upon entering, he saw an old man walking over anxiously.
Because the "husband" passed away, the mansion was completely blank.
The old man was also dressed in white. After seeing Gu Ning, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Where did Madam go? Why didn't I let the servant follow me? If something happened to this, I would have no face to face the young master under Jiuquan!"
Gu Ning, who was not well adapted to his status as a widow, supported the old man with an embarrassed expression, not letting him fall over excited.
The old man wiped the corners of his eyes and asked someone to help Gu Ning back to the house to rest.
"Ma'am, go back and rest. Later, I have to go to the mayor to cancel the household registration for the young master and apply for a death certificate..."
As he spoke, the old man choked up again.
Gu Ning blinked his long eyelashes, pretending to be very sad.
The beauty wept, and all the servants who watched also became sad.
For a while, there was crying in the courtyard.
Gu Ning: "..."
That's not how the domino effect works...
Gu Ning was helped back to the bedroom by the servant.
After breaking free a few times, Gu Ning gave up walking by himself.
The servants in the mansion think that Gu Ning is very weak, too sad to cause physical exhaustion, and he may fall if he doesn't support him.
Gu Ning didn't explain and let them make up their minds.
After finally returning to the bedroom, the housekeeper ordered someone to bring supplements and watched Gu Ning drink it.
Gu Ning smelled the tonic in the small gu in front of him, and drank it in one breath.
Although the taste is good, but the aftertaste is very strange, there is a smell of Chinese herbal medicine.
After watching Gu Ning drink the tonic, the butler closed the door and left.
And said: "Madam, rest, I will send someone to wake you up when the time comes."
Gu Ning was forced to rest.
Lying on the soft bed, the servant pulled down the curtains, seeing darkness, smelling the faint incense, Gu Ning quickly fell asleep.
-
After the noisy teahouse, it is now miserable.
The tables, chairs and benches were interrupted by Hu Lao Er and Dian Xiao Er, and the table was overturned.
If the shop boy had won, then all this would have been better, but the shop boy had lost.
This represents the face of the owner of the teahouse being rubbed against the ground by Hu Laoer.
After all the customers had left, the owner of the teahouse closed the door, walked up to the waiter, and asked the waiter, "Is the widow a player?"
The shop clerk was covering his face with eggs, and when he heard this, his face was grim: "How does he look like a player?"
"That strong man beat me so hard, and said he was venting his anger for my sister-in-law. I think he must have a ghost in his heart!"
Although the owner of the teahouse was also poked in the face by Gu Ning, the man named Hu Lao Er didn't show any disrespect to his sister-in-law in his eyes.
There is also that group of people, all of whom are full of anger. It can be seen that the widow is not necessarily a player, but may be a game npc.
After excluding a code name, the owner of the teahouse said happily: "Don't be angry, you can get a ticket for a meal, it's worth it."
The shop waiter heard the words and glared at the owner of the teahouse: "Heh, it's up to you to try out the next code name."
The owner of the teahouse said: "Yes."
He said: "I happen to be going to buy jade from the owner of the jade shop later, so I can try him out."
The waiter in the shop said dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you let me test the owner of the jade shop?"
"Isn't this an unexpected situation?" The owner of the teahouse said, "Who would have thought that there would be a group of younger brothers around the widow."
"Damn the rules of the game!" The waiter punched the raised table.
A clatter.
The table collapsed, its legs scattered all over the floor.
The owner of the teahouse had blue veins on his forehead. He gave the waiter a slap, and strode into the back of the teahouse, leaving the waiter helping the table in pain.
What crime did he do? !
In stark contrast to the teahouse side are the vendors and butchers on the other side.
After entering the dungeon, both of them chose to conceal their identities and pretended to be game NPCs.
But—the distance between the two of them was only a few meters, so it was easy to see the flaw.
It's the name on the code name again, it's not too easy to guess the identity.
The butcher and the trader made up their minds to fight to the end, even if they were beaten, they would not reveal their identities.
After guessing their identities, the two vowed not to vote for each other.
So the peddler and the butcher stood together, you sell meat for me and I sell things for you, harmoniously.
It was not long before the mayor's servant came and told the merchant and the butcher.
The servant said, "The mayor said you two are the most vicious people on the street and need to be reformed."
Hearing the words, the peddler complained, "Who did you listen to? I'm the kindest person on this road!"
He pulled out a smile, but he looked too fierce, under the servant's cold eyes, he wiped his face and said he would leave after closing the stall.
The butcher looked at his thin arm, and he asked the servant in disbelief, "Do you think a person like me can be vicious?"
The servant looked at the butcher's emaciated body and a long scar on his face, and said seriously: "The vendors nearby say that you have a hot temper and are scary when chopping meat."
"The mayor recommends that you wear a face mask when chopping meat, so as not to scare children into tears."
The butcher looked bewildered.
You don't have to use much force to chop meat, how can you smash it into pieces?
After the servant delivered the mayor's order, he bought vegetables from the vendor and meat from the butcher, and went home happily to make dumplings.
The duo who stayed in place were stunned and puzzled.
The merchant asked the butcher, "Am I fierce?"
"Not vicious," said the butcher.
The butcher asked the vendor, "Am I vicious?"
The vendor shook his head: "It's not vicious at all."
The two said in unison: "They have problems with their eyes!"
Passers-by with eyesight problems, when they saw the butcher chopping meat, hid far away and dared not approach.
The butcher didn't notice it. He felt that chopping meat was too tiring, so he might as well buy vegetables.
Vendors also feel that shopping for vegetables is too tiring. Too many people ask the price when they buy vegetables. It is not as good as the butcher's place, and no one comes to buy meat for half a day.
So, they switched booths.
Tired to death, paralyzed.jpg.
The servant returned home with vegetables and meat and asked his mother to make dumplings for him.
The servant who turned around didn't see the confusion in the old mother's eyes and the red pimple on her arm.
The servant took the things home and went back to the mayor's house.
The mayor's residence is located in the center of the town, not only spacious but also bright, surrounded by a lively scene.
But when the door of the mayor's house was opened, everything was very quiet from the inside to the outside.
The servant knew that the mayor was quiet, so he lowered his footsteps and went to the mayor's office to answer.
The mayor of Water Town, only 27 years old this year, is in the prime of his youth, but the servant sees in the mayor a sense of twilight that only a very old man would have.
Seeing that the servant had returned, the mayor put down the red pen in his hand.Standing up, walking to the window, looking calmly at the bustling crowd outside the window.
He asked in a low voice, "Has everyone been notified?"
The servant replied cautiously: "The notification is over, the vendor and the butcher said they will come later."
A little smile appeared on the mayor's lips, and he said, "Good job."
"The mayor is joking," the servant said with a smile, "They are not as scary as the rumors say, and they are quite easy to talk to."
Hearing the words, the mayor turned his head and looked at the servant with dim eyes. The servant's legs trembled when he looked straight at it.
After a while, the mayor said: "The peddler is a street tyrant in that street. He often threatens the surrounding peddlers, causing the street's economy to decline severely."
"As for the butcher," the mayor said in a low voice, removing the dark look in his eyes, "even though he is thin and small, he is very powerful. He has done bad things before."
The servant sighed sincerely: "Mayor, you are too powerful. You have only been in Shuizhen for a few years, and you have cleaned up the situation in the town."
The servant felt that the mayor's back was a little lonely, and he seemed to hear the mayor say: "I was also from Shuizhen before."
This sentence was too soft, and the servant didn't hear it very clearly.
After saying this, the mayor let the servants go out and the housekeeper come in.
The butler is about 50 to [-] years old, not tall, but has a very strong build.
The servant knew that the butler was brought over from home by the mayor, so he naturally respected him very much.
The butler didn't look sideways, and walked straight into the mayor's office without looking at the servant.
"Click-"
The door was closed.
The servant curled his lips, and the mayor closed the door as soon as he was alone with the butler, probably talking about some secret again.
Inside the office.
The mayor stood by the window with a calm expression on his face.
After the butler came in, he greeted the mayor: "Good afternoon, young master, have you used your lunch?"
After a long time, the mayor said, "Uncle Bai, I can't eat."
Uncle Bai sighed and said, "Master, you have to eat, how can you be strong if you don't eat..."
After hesitating for a few seconds, he still said, "How do you have the strength to look for him?"
Hearing this, the mayor arched his back slowly, as if he had endured some huge, unresolvable grief.
Seeing this, Uncle Bai frowned. He sighed, took out the tissue he always kept in his pocket, handed it to the mayor, and patted the mayor on the back to comfort him like he did when he was a child.
"Don't cry, young master, you have come out, no one can force you to do things you don't like anymore."
After a long time, Uncle Bai heard the hoarse voice of the mayor.
The mayor said, "What's the use of talking about it now?"
Uncle Bai was silent, he didn't know how to answer the mayor's words.
The mayor choked up and said something he didn't want to admit.
"If you hadn't stopped me back then, he and I would have lived together beautifully in another country, and he wouldn't, wouldn't..."
The mayor still couldn't say the word, he didn't want to admit that the man was gone.
Maybe he was just delayed, maybe he just couldn't make the appointment.
Maybe, he might never be able to come to the appointment again...
Thinking of this, the mayor was distraught.
Uncle Bai couldn't bear the mayor's sadness, and was afraid that he might lose his eyes from crying, so he said, "Master, let me tell you the truth, the master and madam never sent anyone to kill him, it was just a lie to force you to submit."
The mayor didn't believe Uncle Bai's words.
He looked at Uncle Bai coldly: "I don't believe it."
Uncle Bai sighed.
Said: "Master, I don't need to lie to you anymore, he is indeed still alive."
The mayor's dark eyes shone a little, and his handsome and thin face burst out with scorching excitement.
Uncle Bai stabilized the mayor's mood and kept him from getting too excited, which would be bad for his health.
After a few minutes, he said: "When the master and madam sent someone over, he had disappeared. I also heard from the master about the specific situation."
The mayor grabbed Uncle Bai's hand and hurriedly asked, "Where did he go? Did you leave a message for me?"
Although Uncle Bai couldn't bear the mayor's disappointment, under the expectant gaze of the mayor, he shook his head slowly and said, "No."
Seeing the mayor's expression instantly weakened.
Uncle Bai sighed and asked the mayor, "Master, is he really that good?"
The mayor lowered his eyelashes and said slowly: "They left me in my hometown since I was a child, because they thought my birth time was unlucky, and the nurse in my hometown didn't care. I spent a long time in hunger."
Uncle Bai had never heard of these things. He looked at the mayor distressedly and let out another long sigh.
The mayor didn't care, and continued to talk. When he said these words, there was a smile on his lips, which was not deep but very touching.
"That's when he appeared by my side. He would find food for me when I was hungry, catch loach for me on rainy days, take me to find fruit to eat when leaves fell, and Dong Xue would bake me sweets. sweet potatoes, and a bunch of cold but sweet candied haws.”
"I don't know where he got the money to buy me candied haws. Even though he was a child, he took good care of me. Since he came to me, I have never been hungry again."
"What they didn't give me, he gave me."
After listening to the mayor's narration, Uncle Bai felt that if he were himself, he might also be tempted.
Affection at the infancy, without a trace of magazines, is the purest and most irresistible, one can only fall into it, unable to extricate itself.
The mayor talked a lot. He drank a cup of tea and ate the supplement brought by Uncle Bai.
Seeing that the mayor drank the tonic, Uncle Bai said happily, "Master, go and rest for a while. I will wake you up when Mrs. Ming comes."
Thinking of Gu Ning, the mayor frowned slightly.
A widow who has lost her husband is also a poor man.
He told Uncle Bai: "Give Mrs. Ming a portion of the white ginseng from the warehouse. I think he is very weak, so don't follow him."
Uncle Bai replied on the face, but said in his heart that the Ming family has a great business, and Ming Zhi left a large sum of money to his wife, a prosperous tavern, and a group of loyal younger brothers, so there is really no need to worry about his safety .
After Uncle Bai left, the mayor returned to his bedroom.
He kissed the person in the photo frame, said some words, felt tired, and then lay down on the bed.
The mayor looked at the patterns on the curtain, closed his eyes and said slowly.
"You have to wait for me, Ze."
The black shadow that flashed by the window stopped when it heard the mayor's voice.
Silently stopped at the window, looking at the mayor on the bed.
The sun was shining brightly in the spring afternoon, with a hint of scorching heat.
In places where the sun does not shine, it is a haze and darkness.
Outside the hospital.
Several people who were infected were looking at the doctor nervously.
They all had ghost face sores, and after suffering for a while, they made up their minds to come to the best clinic in the town for treatment.
After all, those who got ghost face sores in the past were all villains, and they didn't want to become the villains in other people's mouths.
After carefully looking at the sores on their ghost faces on their backs, the doctor shook his head and gave them an ultimatum.
"It's hopeless, go back and prepare the coffin early."
Several people burst into tears immediately, almost knelt down and grabbed the doctor's leg and begged for help.
The doctor also had no choice, he said: "The ghost face sores on your back have formed the shape of a human face, and there is no way to get rid of them. If you come to me when you know you are sick, maybe you can get rid of some of them, and your lives will be guaranteed. will be threatened."
The doctor shook his head and asked the medicine boy to send them away.
At the last moment, the few people who had been given the "Notice of Critical Illness" pushed aside the drug boy and entered the hospital arbitrarily. and go.
The drug boy hurriedly got up from the ground, wanting to check on the doctor's condition.
The doctor was beaten badly, with nosebleeds in his hand, but his expression was very indifferent, and he asked the medicine boy to go to the cabinet to get the medicine for dispelling blood stasis and promoting blood circulation, and he sat on the bench in the hospital with great spirit, like an old man. It's normal for a monk to enter meditation.
The medicine boy who carefully applied the medicine to the doctor felt sorry for the doctor, and said angrily, "I come here every time. If I get sick, I don't come to see the doctor sooner. I don't come back until I'm hopeless. What are you trying to do?"
"Okay." The doctor glanced at Yaotong lightly, and Yaotong immediately shut up and stopped being disgusted.
After a while, the medicine boy asked the doctor in a low voice, "Sir, why didn't you prescribe medicine for them?"
"Didn't you also prescribe medicine for dying patients before?"
Hearing this, the doctor knocked on Yaoboy's forehead and asked him to read the inscription on the plaque on the door of the medical center outside.
The drug boy didn't understand, so he put down the medicine and went outside to look at the door plaque. After reading it, he went back to the room and asked the doctor: "Sir, I don't see anything wrong?"
The doctor sighed, and said helplessly, "Why did I accept you, a foolish apprentice?"
The drug boy chuckled, hoping the doctor would clarify his doubts.
The doctor didn't talk about the door plaque anymore, he asked the drug boy: "What is the first thing you do when you enter my door?"
Yaotong immediately said, "Recite scriptures."
The doctor looked at those people from a distance. After leaving the medical hall, those people probably felt that time was running out, so they stopped hiding and went directly to the vendors to steal the money and the things they sold.
He sighed, looked at the medicinal materials behind him, and said with erratic eyes: "I will save those who can be saved. They are all hopeless people, and it is useless to prescribe medicine."
Yaotong didn't quite understand the meaning of Mr.'s words, but Mr.
He looked around, but there was no trace of the secondary system, and he called a few times, but did not get the slightest response.
Gu Ning frowned.
He took a closer look around and found that although this space was similar to the space of the sub-system, it was more empty and deep than the space of the sub-system.
The pure white that can't be seen at a glance, like the boundless sea, brings a deep and dignified sense of depression.
After walking around for a while, Gu Ning, who didn't find any exit, exhaled slowly, suppressed the bad feeling in his heart, and talked to 009 in his mind.
"009, why is the pattern on Chen Wen's arm the same color as the pattern on my waist?"
"Do you know why?"
Gu Ning's question made 009 not know how to answer it.
First of all, it is not sure whether it was done by the devil.If it is, even if it tells Gu Ning, it will only increase troubles, without any benefit.
After much deliberation, 009 chose to conceal it.
"I don't know how they are related," it said.
"Or it's a coincidence." 009 said.
Gu Ning subconsciously felt that something was wrong, his inspiration had always been high, and he would not have such a subtle disgust for no reason.
It was as if the rose pattern on Chen Wen's arm was something extremely dirty.
But 009's evasive appearance, which obviously didn't want to say more, made Gu Ning frowned slightly, and his reddish lips were slightly pursed. He asked 009: "If I recover all my memories, will you tell me all this?"
"Including my true identity, why I live in the human world, and—"
In Gu Ning's light-colored eyes, there was a sharp light shining, 009 seemed to see its young and energetic master.
"—why should I die?"
009 was silent for a moment.
There was a soft "hmm".
——On the day when the memory is restored, 009 will tell you everything.
——009 is willing to offer you all loyalty, my master.
This question didn't get the desired answer, Gu Ning asked 009 again: "Have you collected the energy of the courtship dance?"
Mentioning this, 009 gets angry.
It hadn't memorized it so much before, and 009 got angry and said cursingly: "It's all the fault of that sea elf. If it was a little later, I would be able to collect energy. Damn it!"
Gu Ning was silent for a few seconds, and opened his lips to ask.
"So, my dance was for nothing?"
——And his confession was also in vain?
009 whispered
: "There is no intimacy, so there is no energy."
Seeing that Gu Ning's face was not very good, it said again: "But I also collected a little, it's not like I didn't gain anything!"
Gu Ning closed his eyes and said softly, "Show me."
After the words fell, he closed his eyes, went deep into the depths of his consciousness, and looked at the energy collected by 009.
Hearing this, 009 hurriedly hid the energy cluster.
But this is Gu Ning's sea of consciousness, how could it hide the energy ball without telling Gu Ning.
So Gu Ning saw the energy cluster, which was no bigger than a palm, hidden behind 009.
Gu Ning didn't know what to say for a while, so he could only remain silent.
009 looked at the energy cluster and whispered, "This, this is not small."
Under Gu Ning's gaze, its voice became lower and lower: "If you save five more, you can fuse another fragment of the soul."
"What about power?" Gu Ning asked 009.
009 carefully looked at Gu Ning's expression, and said: "This, this little energy, I'm afraid it can only restore one-twentieth of Ning Ning's strength."
Gu Ning: "..."
So his dance was for nothing?
Tired and nervous, I finished the courtship dance and got nothing, not even a response to my confession.
The more I thought about it, the worse it became, and I faced the .jpg with a smile.
009 was about to say something to comfort its owner, lest the owner be too angry and bad for his health.
Sudden.A figure appeared in the pure white space.
[Congratulations to the player for successfully passing the level]
[Now let's judge the player's performance in the copy]
[The performance is unqualified and will be downgraded]
Gu Ning looked up when he heard the sound, and saw a thick black light group slowly drifting from a distance.
The malice contained in the light cluster made Gu Ning frowned slightly, and the slender eyelashes covered the emotions in his eyes.
The thick black light group introduced itself.
[Hello player, I am the main god distracted, you can call me No. 2]
Gu Ning raised his eyelids slightly, unable to figure out why the main god was so distracted that he wanted to call this stupid name.
After he greeted No. 2, No. 2 calculated Gu Ning's performance in the dungeon.
Skip over the sweet process of getting along with Gu Ning and Edward, and look at the result directly.
No. 2 concluded.
[The player's performance in the dungeon is not bad, it needs to work hard]
Gu Ning's bright red lips pursed slightly, but she didn't answer.
After finishing the judgment, No. 2 suddenly leaned into Gu Ning's fair ear and said softly.
[You have been targeted for so long in the dungeon, don't you want to resist the past? 】
【for example--】
No. 2 talked to Gu Ning in a bewitching manner.
【Kill them all】
Gu Ning's long eyelashes were slightly drawn, and he glanced at No. 2 lightly, and said indifferently: "If there is nothing else, I'm going back to rest."
On the 2nd, seeing that Gu Ning didn't like this, he couldn't help being a little surprised.
It snorted coldly, as if saying that Gu Ning didn't know good from bad.
When the teleportation array was opened, No. 2 intentionally created the wrong location and let Gu Ning enter the instance.
After Gu Ning disappeared into the space, No. 2 lazily said to the main god.
"He doesn't like this, you should try to lure him in another way."
The Lord God remained silent, quietly watching Gu Ning's back.
After a long time, it said: "He has a repulsion towards us, and it really should be changed."
Number 2 asked the Lord God, "What are you going to do?"
The Lord God said, "I need to think again."
"By the way, you can negotiate with that person."
A halo flashed around the main god, and he took No. 2 back to his territory.
Hearing this, No. 2 said impatiently, "Why don't you go."
It complained: "That man is a lunatic. I don't fight like a lunatic. When a lunatic fights, he doesn't play cards according to the routine. Last time, he beat me until my soul collapsed. I..."
The Lord God severely interrupted No. 2's words.
"What soul?"
Its serious police No. 2: "Don't say such things in the future, you are a bunch of data, what kind of soul, let me hear it again, you go and be with that lunatic!"
Number 2 knew that he had made a slip of the tongue and didn't say anything. After a while, he agreed to the Lord God's words and went to negotiate terms with that annoying lunatic.
In fact, No. 2 can't see through the main god. Although they are one body and two souls, the main god is the fusion product of the main body and the inner demon after all, with unpredictable strength and unpredictable temperament.
Number 2 sighed. To be honest, he missed his big brother a little.
Hey, I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse to have such a main body as the main god.
-
After a whirlwind.
After Gu Ning opened his eyes, he reached the next copy.
His thick and slender brows were slightly frowned, and his eyelashes were slightly drawn. After a while, he raised his eyelids, looked around, and found that this place seemed to be a small town.
Shouldn't he be at the transfer station now?
Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Gu Ning pretended to be nonchalant and looked at everything around him.
Surrounded by lively streets.
Gu Ning lowered his eyes, with a look of surprise under his long eyelashes.
What he was wearing at the moment was a plain robe, not only that, but his hair reached his waist, and his long hair was loosely tied behind his head by a hair band.
If Gu Ning brushes his long hair in front of him, he will see a white silk flower on the hairband.
Not only is there a white flower on the headband, but also a white flower is embroidered on the clothes on his left arm.
However, Gu Ning didn't notice this at this time, he was listening carefully to the task of the dungeon system.
The dungeon system of this world is different from other dungeons.
In the past, the dungeon system gave Gu Ning the feeling that he was like a cold robot, and his tone of voice did not have a trace of popularity.
But the dungeon system in this world made Gu Ning feel a little bit of popularity.
The dungeon system slowly fell from the sky, because it was split into several copies, so the figure was relatively weak.
It greets Gu Ning.
【welcome】
Gu Ning also nodded and said hello to the dungeon system.
The copy system said.
[Congratulations to the player for successfully advancing to level 5. The following game rules will be different from the player's previous dungeons]
【Please listen to me carefully】
Gu Ning nodded and said that he would listen carefully.
The dungeon system began to explain the rules of the game slowly.
[Starting from this dungeon, players will have a specific avatar in the dungeon]
[Example: butcher, vendor, doctor, etc.]
[The character of each dungeon player will change with the background of the dungeon, and the character design will be random]
Gu Ning silently listened to the explanation of the dungeon system, and he cleared up his previous knowledge of the dungeon.
Under the long eyelashes, there is an unknown color.
The dungeon system is still going on.
The townspeople passing by all looked at Gu Ning with pity.
Gu Ning blinked his long eyelashes, looking at the people coming and going for no apparent reason, thinking that he was standing in the middle of the road blocking others from walking, so he walked into a teahouse and found a secluded place to sit down.
Xiaoer brought up a pot of tea, and after seeing Gu Ning's attire, he said: "My condolences." Then he left.
Gu Ning didn't understand what Xiaoer meant, but this didn't prevent him from listening to the dungeon system.
The copy system said.
[Now I will explain the background of this dungeon to the players]
[The place where the player is located is Water Town]
[Water Town, as the name suggests, is a town by the lake]
[People in the small town believe in the river god in the river behind the town. Every year at the end of spring, they will present a beautiful bride and a boat full of sacrifices to the river god]
【At the end of spring again, an infectious disease suddenly appeared in the town. People who get sick will have a human face growing on their backs】
【Personally known as ghost face sore】
[There is no doctor in the town who can cure this sore, all the people who got the disease did not live past the spring, they all died at the end of spring]
[Ghost-faced sores appear every year when offering sacrifices to the River God. This year is the fifth year of ghost-faced sores]
[The new young mayor of the town heard about the ghost face sores and plans to abolish the activity of offering sacrifices to the river god]
[On the day of voting, the mayor disappeared]
[There are still three hours before the mayor disappears, please rush to the mayor's house as soon as possible to protect the mayor from being taken away by mysterious creatures]
After Gu Ning finished listening, he asked the dungeon system: "What is my mission?"
The copy system said.
[Player, don't worry, I will always be by the player's side and issue tasks to the player]
[Players can relax, I will pretend to be deaf and dumb when I shouldn’t see or listen, and when I don’t issue tasks, I usually leave and won’t stay by the player’s side all the time]
【And, ask the player to find out the suspicious people around you】
When Gu Ning heard this, he blinked his long eyelashes and looked at the dungeon system in puzzlement.
The copy system said.
[The players in this dungeon each have a negative vote. When other players vote for their ID number, they can use the negative vote to cancel a vote]
[There will be two rounds of voting. The player’s ID code is widow. If the player is identified as voting by other code players, the player with the highest number of votes will be punished by downgrading.]
[Other ID codes are in the bracelet, players can check them through the bracelet]
Gu Ning blinked his eyelashes, with a look of surprise and bewilderment.
widow?What widow?Who is the widow?
next second.Gu Ning just listened to the dungeon system.
[Players please receive the V copy of the character set]
[Personality is being generated——]
[Your identity, player—a widow]
Gu Ning: "?"
The dungeon system was afraid that Gu Ning didn't understand, so it repeated it again.
[This is the character set of the player in the V copy]
【A widow whose husband just died】
[Players are requested to play the role carefully, don't be seen by other code-named players]
[Reminder: There are 10 code names in this dungeon, but there are only five real players. Players are requested to vote carefully and cherish the opportunity to vote. If one real player is voted for, the player's level will increase by one level. Otherwise, there will be no penalty. If voted Number one, downgraded]
Gu Ning: "..."
How is this different from role playing?
No, there is still a difference.
Gu Ning thought indifferently.
At least cosplay isn't punishing.
Gu Ning swallowed the spit that came to his mouth.
He suddenly remembered the way passers-by looked at him just now, and a burst of speechless embarrassment permeated his side.
The dungeon system didn't quite understand Gu Ning's embarrassment, it left a word and disappeared.
[Please don't forget to burn incense and some paper for your husband, otherwise he will be angry]
Gu Ning silently clenched his fists.
When he got back to the transfer station, he had to interrogate Ming Zhi whether he had any enmity with the V copy.
Otherwise, how can I explain it? Given such an embarrassing character design for him, the merchant character design is better than the widow lady's character design!
He took a sip of the tea, and the bitter taste permeated his lips and tongue.
Gu Ning clicked on the bracelet to check other codenames.
Good guy, everyone is better than his character.
Vendors, medical boys, mayor's butlers, teahouse owners, shop assistants, butchers, jade shop owners, sacrificial apprentices, and widows.
Gu Ning closed the bracelet with a cold face, and took a big sip of tea, which was really embarrassing. Among the long list of code names, his is the most eye-catching.
A bitter taste in his mouth made him temporarily forget the embarrassment caused by the code name.
At this time, a shop waiter came over, and he specially brought a plate of dishes to Gu Ning's side.
Gu Ning glanced, it was a plate of peanuts.
The waiter put down the peanuts, but he didn't leave immediately, but asked Gu Ning: "Widow? This character is really perfect, hahahaha."
"Don't you think this character is not tall at all?"
"What character design? What tallness? I don't understand what you are talking about?"
Gu Ning slightly pursed his red lips, thinking of his character design, he silently bit his lower lip with a sad expression on his face.
The waiter still wanted to say something to stimulate Gu Ning, but he was fascinated by Gu Ning's expression. Before his hand touched Gu Ning's shoulder, and before he could speak softly, he was caught by other people in the teahouse. The person is pressed on the table.
A strong man said to Gu Ning: "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid. Let's see how I, Mr. Hu, teach this dirty-mouthed bastard a lesson!"
When Gu Ning was at a loss, the man named Hu Laoer beat up the shop boy solidly.
Gu Ning was stunned, and the people next to him rushed over to fight, and the waiter who hit him was crying for his father and mother.
The owner of the teahouse came out in a hurry, and when he saw the situation, he apologized.
But Hu Lao Er refused to stop, he didn't want to let the shop Xiao Er go like this, and he didn't stop until he beat the shop Xiao Er until his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and he cried and said that he was wrong.
Hu Laoer, the owner of the teahouse, is muscular and dare not offend him, so after a few good words, he will let people leave you.
As for the waiter in the shop, he was scolded by the owner of the teahouse.
The scolding words are all dialects that Gu Ning doesn't understand well.
So Gu Ning, who drank Bawang tea, left the teahouse with Hu Laoer and a bunch of people.
Hu Laoer was worried about Gu Ning and insisted on sending Gu Ning back.
Seeing Gu Ning's weak look, Hu Lao Er sighed and advised Gu Ning to take care of his body.
"Sister-in-law, with your appearance, if the elder brother is still alive, he must be very distressed."
Gu Ning was so embarrassed that he wished he could find a hole in the ground and get in.
Hu Laoer and a group of people escorted Gu Ning home.
On the way, Gu Ning revealed his identity and the "husband" he had never met before without a trace.
"Hey, if it wasn't for the big brother rushing out on a mission, such a thing wouldn't have happened."
"Little sister-in-law, it's only been three days since my eldest brother passed away, yet someone dares to bully you like this, is it like a man's brother died?!"
"Don't worry, little sister-in-law, with our brothers around, we will definitely not let you drink the northwest wind."
"What northwest wind do you want to drink? The elder brother left a sum of money and a good tavern for the younger sister-in-law. As for your brat to help?"
"The sound of the tavern is not easy to do now, hurry up and let us brothers go to the tavern to see if the grandson dares to find something?!"
At the door of the house, Gu Ning had a clear understanding of the pride of his "husband".
Compared with the previous dungeons, although this dungeon is a bit embarrassing, this house is the best ever.
Although the old castle is good, it is very empty and unpopular.This mansion clearly has a breath of life.
After sending Hu Laoer and the others away, Gu Ning opened the door, and upon entering, he saw an old man walking over anxiously.
Because the "husband" passed away, the mansion was completely blank.
The old man was also dressed in white. After seeing Gu Ning, he breathed a sigh of relief: "Where did Madam go? Why didn't I let the servant follow me? If something happened to this, I would have no face to face the young master under Jiuquan!"
Gu Ning, who was not well adapted to his status as a widow, supported the old man with an embarrassed expression, not letting him fall over excited.
The old man wiped the corners of his eyes and asked someone to help Gu Ning back to the house to rest.
"Ma'am, go back and rest. Later, I have to go to the mayor to cancel the household registration for the young master and apply for a death certificate..."
As he spoke, the old man choked up again.
Gu Ning blinked his long eyelashes, pretending to be very sad.
The beauty wept, and all the servants who watched also became sad.
For a while, there was crying in the courtyard.
Gu Ning: "..."
That's not how the domino effect works...
Gu Ning was helped back to the bedroom by the servant.
After breaking free a few times, Gu Ning gave up walking by himself.
The servants in the mansion think that Gu Ning is very weak, too sad to cause physical exhaustion, and he may fall if he doesn't support him.
Gu Ning didn't explain and let them make up their minds.
After finally returning to the bedroom, the housekeeper ordered someone to bring supplements and watched Gu Ning drink it.
Gu Ning smelled the tonic in the small gu in front of him, and drank it in one breath.
Although the taste is good, but the aftertaste is very strange, there is a smell of Chinese herbal medicine.
After watching Gu Ning drink the tonic, the butler closed the door and left.
And said: "Madam, rest, I will send someone to wake you up when the time comes."
Gu Ning was forced to rest.
Lying on the soft bed, the servant pulled down the curtains, seeing darkness, smelling the faint incense, Gu Ning quickly fell asleep.
-
After the noisy teahouse, it is now miserable.
The tables, chairs and benches were interrupted by Hu Lao Er and Dian Xiao Er, and the table was overturned.
If the shop boy had won, then all this would have been better, but the shop boy had lost.
This represents the face of the owner of the teahouse being rubbed against the ground by Hu Laoer.
After all the customers had left, the owner of the teahouse closed the door, walked up to the waiter, and asked the waiter, "Is the widow a player?"
The shop clerk was covering his face with eggs, and when he heard this, his face was grim: "How does he look like a player?"
"That strong man beat me so hard, and said he was venting his anger for my sister-in-law. I think he must have a ghost in his heart!"
Although the owner of the teahouse was also poked in the face by Gu Ning, the man named Hu Lao Er didn't show any disrespect to his sister-in-law in his eyes.
There is also that group of people, all of whom are full of anger. It can be seen that the widow is not necessarily a player, but may be a game npc.
After excluding a code name, the owner of the teahouse said happily: "Don't be angry, you can get a ticket for a meal, it's worth it."
The shop waiter heard the words and glared at the owner of the teahouse: "Heh, it's up to you to try out the next code name."
The owner of the teahouse said: "Yes."
He said: "I happen to be going to buy jade from the owner of the jade shop later, so I can try him out."
The waiter in the shop said dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you let me test the owner of the jade shop?"
"Isn't this an unexpected situation?" The owner of the teahouse said, "Who would have thought that there would be a group of younger brothers around the widow."
"Damn the rules of the game!" The waiter punched the raised table.
A clatter.
The table collapsed, its legs scattered all over the floor.
The owner of the teahouse had blue veins on his forehead. He gave the waiter a slap, and strode into the back of the teahouse, leaving the waiter helping the table in pain.
What crime did he do? !
In stark contrast to the teahouse side are the vendors and butchers on the other side.
After entering the dungeon, both of them chose to conceal their identities and pretended to be game NPCs.
But—the distance between the two of them was only a few meters, so it was easy to see the flaw.
It's the name on the code name again, it's not too easy to guess the identity.
The butcher and the trader made up their minds to fight to the end, even if they were beaten, they would not reveal their identities.
After guessing their identities, the two vowed not to vote for each other.
So the peddler and the butcher stood together, you sell meat for me and I sell things for you, harmoniously.
It was not long before the mayor's servant came and told the merchant and the butcher.
The servant said, "The mayor said you two are the most vicious people on the street and need to be reformed."
Hearing the words, the peddler complained, "Who did you listen to? I'm the kindest person on this road!"
He pulled out a smile, but he looked too fierce, under the servant's cold eyes, he wiped his face and said he would leave after closing the stall.
The butcher looked at his thin arm, and he asked the servant in disbelief, "Do you think a person like me can be vicious?"
The servant looked at the butcher's emaciated body and a long scar on his face, and said seriously: "The vendors nearby say that you have a hot temper and are scary when chopping meat."
"The mayor recommends that you wear a face mask when chopping meat, so as not to scare children into tears."
The butcher looked bewildered.
You don't have to use much force to chop meat, how can you smash it into pieces?
After the servant delivered the mayor's order, he bought vegetables from the vendor and meat from the butcher, and went home happily to make dumplings.
The duo who stayed in place were stunned and puzzled.
The merchant asked the butcher, "Am I fierce?"
"Not vicious," said the butcher.
The butcher asked the vendor, "Am I vicious?"
The vendor shook his head: "It's not vicious at all."
The two said in unison: "They have problems with their eyes!"
Passers-by with eyesight problems, when they saw the butcher chopping meat, hid far away and dared not approach.
The butcher didn't notice it. He felt that chopping meat was too tiring, so he might as well buy vegetables.
Vendors also feel that shopping for vegetables is too tiring. Too many people ask the price when they buy vegetables. It is not as good as the butcher's place, and no one comes to buy meat for half a day.
So, they switched booths.
Tired to death, paralyzed.jpg.
The servant returned home with vegetables and meat and asked his mother to make dumplings for him.
The servant who turned around didn't see the confusion in the old mother's eyes and the red pimple on her arm.
The servant took the things home and went back to the mayor's house.
The mayor's residence is located in the center of the town, not only spacious but also bright, surrounded by a lively scene.
But when the door of the mayor's house was opened, everything was very quiet from the inside to the outside.
The servant knew that the mayor was quiet, so he lowered his footsteps and went to the mayor's office to answer.
The mayor of Water Town, only 27 years old this year, is in the prime of his youth, but the servant sees in the mayor a sense of twilight that only a very old man would have.
Seeing that the servant had returned, the mayor put down the red pen in his hand.Standing up, walking to the window, looking calmly at the bustling crowd outside the window.
He asked in a low voice, "Has everyone been notified?"
The servant replied cautiously: "The notification is over, the vendor and the butcher said they will come later."
A little smile appeared on the mayor's lips, and he said, "Good job."
"The mayor is joking," the servant said with a smile, "They are not as scary as the rumors say, and they are quite easy to talk to."
Hearing the words, the mayor turned his head and looked at the servant with dim eyes. The servant's legs trembled when he looked straight at it.
After a while, the mayor said: "The peddler is a street tyrant in that street. He often threatens the surrounding peddlers, causing the street's economy to decline severely."
"As for the butcher," the mayor said in a low voice, removing the dark look in his eyes, "even though he is thin and small, he is very powerful. He has done bad things before."
The servant sighed sincerely: "Mayor, you are too powerful. You have only been in Shuizhen for a few years, and you have cleaned up the situation in the town."
The servant felt that the mayor's back was a little lonely, and he seemed to hear the mayor say: "I was also from Shuizhen before."
This sentence was too soft, and the servant didn't hear it very clearly.
After saying this, the mayor let the servants go out and the housekeeper come in.
The butler is about 50 to [-] years old, not tall, but has a very strong build.
The servant knew that the butler was brought over from home by the mayor, so he naturally respected him very much.
The butler didn't look sideways, and walked straight into the mayor's office without looking at the servant.
"Click-"
The door was closed.
The servant curled his lips, and the mayor closed the door as soon as he was alone with the butler, probably talking about some secret again.
Inside the office.
The mayor stood by the window with a calm expression on his face.
After the butler came in, he greeted the mayor: "Good afternoon, young master, have you used your lunch?"
After a long time, the mayor said, "Uncle Bai, I can't eat."
Uncle Bai sighed and said, "Master, you have to eat, how can you be strong if you don't eat..."
After hesitating for a few seconds, he still said, "How do you have the strength to look for him?"
Hearing this, the mayor arched his back slowly, as if he had endured some huge, unresolvable grief.
Seeing this, Uncle Bai frowned. He sighed, took out the tissue he always kept in his pocket, handed it to the mayor, and patted the mayor on the back to comfort him like he did when he was a child.
"Don't cry, young master, you have come out, no one can force you to do things you don't like anymore."
After a long time, Uncle Bai heard the hoarse voice of the mayor.
The mayor said, "What's the use of talking about it now?"
Uncle Bai was silent, he didn't know how to answer the mayor's words.
The mayor choked up and said something he didn't want to admit.
"If you hadn't stopped me back then, he and I would have lived together beautifully in another country, and he wouldn't, wouldn't..."
The mayor still couldn't say the word, he didn't want to admit that the man was gone.
Maybe he was just delayed, maybe he just couldn't make the appointment.
Maybe, he might never be able to come to the appointment again...
Thinking of this, the mayor was distraught.
Uncle Bai couldn't bear the mayor's sadness, and was afraid that he might lose his eyes from crying, so he said, "Master, let me tell you the truth, the master and madam never sent anyone to kill him, it was just a lie to force you to submit."
The mayor didn't believe Uncle Bai's words.
He looked at Uncle Bai coldly: "I don't believe it."
Uncle Bai sighed.
Said: "Master, I don't need to lie to you anymore, he is indeed still alive."
The mayor's dark eyes shone a little, and his handsome and thin face burst out with scorching excitement.
Uncle Bai stabilized the mayor's mood and kept him from getting too excited, which would be bad for his health.
After a few minutes, he said: "When the master and madam sent someone over, he had disappeared. I also heard from the master about the specific situation."
The mayor grabbed Uncle Bai's hand and hurriedly asked, "Where did he go? Did you leave a message for me?"
Although Uncle Bai couldn't bear the mayor's disappointment, under the expectant gaze of the mayor, he shook his head slowly and said, "No."
Seeing the mayor's expression instantly weakened.
Uncle Bai sighed and asked the mayor, "Master, is he really that good?"
The mayor lowered his eyelashes and said slowly: "They left me in my hometown since I was a child, because they thought my birth time was unlucky, and the nurse in my hometown didn't care. I spent a long time in hunger."
Uncle Bai had never heard of these things. He looked at the mayor distressedly and let out another long sigh.
The mayor didn't care, and continued to talk. When he said these words, there was a smile on his lips, which was not deep but very touching.
"That's when he appeared by my side. He would find food for me when I was hungry, catch loach for me on rainy days, take me to find fruit to eat when leaves fell, and Dong Xue would bake me sweets. sweet potatoes, and a bunch of cold but sweet candied haws.”
"I don't know where he got the money to buy me candied haws. Even though he was a child, he took good care of me. Since he came to me, I have never been hungry again."
"What they didn't give me, he gave me."
After listening to the mayor's narration, Uncle Bai felt that if he were himself, he might also be tempted.
Affection at the infancy, without a trace of magazines, is the purest and most irresistible, one can only fall into it, unable to extricate itself.
The mayor talked a lot. He drank a cup of tea and ate the supplement brought by Uncle Bai.
Seeing that the mayor drank the tonic, Uncle Bai said happily, "Master, go and rest for a while. I will wake you up when Mrs. Ming comes."
Thinking of Gu Ning, the mayor frowned slightly.
A widow who has lost her husband is also a poor man.
He told Uncle Bai: "Give Mrs. Ming a portion of the white ginseng from the warehouse. I think he is very weak, so don't follow him."
Uncle Bai replied on the face, but said in his heart that the Ming family has a great business, and Ming Zhi left a large sum of money to his wife, a prosperous tavern, and a group of loyal younger brothers, so there is really no need to worry about his safety .
After Uncle Bai left, the mayor returned to his bedroom.
He kissed the person in the photo frame, said some words, felt tired, and then lay down on the bed.
The mayor looked at the patterns on the curtain, closed his eyes and said slowly.
"You have to wait for me, Ze."
The black shadow that flashed by the window stopped when it heard the mayor's voice.
Silently stopped at the window, looking at the mayor on the bed.
The sun was shining brightly in the spring afternoon, with a hint of scorching heat.
In places where the sun does not shine, it is a haze and darkness.
Outside the hospital.
Several people who were infected were looking at the doctor nervously.
They all had ghost face sores, and after suffering for a while, they made up their minds to come to the best clinic in the town for treatment.
After all, those who got ghost face sores in the past were all villains, and they didn't want to become the villains in other people's mouths.
After carefully looking at the sores on their ghost faces on their backs, the doctor shook his head and gave them an ultimatum.
"It's hopeless, go back and prepare the coffin early."
Several people burst into tears immediately, almost knelt down and grabbed the doctor's leg and begged for help.
The doctor also had no choice, he said: "The ghost face sores on your back have formed the shape of a human face, and there is no way to get rid of them. If you come to me when you know you are sick, maybe you can get rid of some of them, and your lives will be guaranteed. will be threatened."
The doctor shook his head and asked the medicine boy to send them away.
At the last moment, the few people who had been given the "Notice of Critical Illness" pushed aside the drug boy and entered the hospital arbitrarily. and go.
The drug boy hurriedly got up from the ground, wanting to check on the doctor's condition.
The doctor was beaten badly, with nosebleeds in his hand, but his expression was very indifferent, and he asked the medicine boy to go to the cabinet to get the medicine for dispelling blood stasis and promoting blood circulation, and he sat on the bench in the hospital with great spirit, like an old man. It's normal for a monk to enter meditation.
The medicine boy who carefully applied the medicine to the doctor felt sorry for the doctor, and said angrily, "I come here every time. If I get sick, I don't come to see the doctor sooner. I don't come back until I'm hopeless. What are you trying to do?"
"Okay." The doctor glanced at Yaotong lightly, and Yaotong immediately shut up and stopped being disgusted.
After a while, the medicine boy asked the doctor in a low voice, "Sir, why didn't you prescribe medicine for them?"
"Didn't you also prescribe medicine for dying patients before?"
Hearing this, the doctor knocked on Yaoboy's forehead and asked him to read the inscription on the plaque on the door of the medical center outside.
The drug boy didn't understand, so he put down the medicine and went outside to look at the door plaque. After reading it, he went back to the room and asked the doctor: "Sir, I don't see anything wrong?"
The doctor sighed, and said helplessly, "Why did I accept you, a foolish apprentice?"
The drug boy chuckled, hoping the doctor would clarify his doubts.
The doctor didn't talk about the door plaque anymore, he asked the drug boy: "What is the first thing you do when you enter my door?"
Yaotong immediately said, "Recite scriptures."
The doctor looked at those people from a distance. After leaving the medical hall, those people probably felt that time was running out, so they stopped hiding and went directly to the vendors to steal the money and the things they sold.
He sighed, looked at the medicinal materials behind him, and said with erratic eyes: "I will save those who can be saved. They are all hopeless people, and it is useless to prescribe medicine."
Yaotong didn't quite understand the meaning of Mr.'s words, but Mr.
