Tree Hole Self-Rescue Guide

Chapter 68 Flowers in the Mirror 16

The warmth I long for the most is bound by another soul...

It's hard to sing a one-man show, but fortunately the partner came in time. It's just right to brush the matter off. Xing Nianyu couldn't suppress the upward arc of his mouth, so he had to keep his head down and drink to cover up his joy. Everything went according to his plan.

When the second Miss Xing got married with a veil on her head, Mrs. Xing came late, supported by her maid. Her eyes were red and swollen, as if she had just cried a lot.

Mo Zhichun, whose attention was on Madam Xing, saw Xing Nianyu reach out to support Madam Xing, his palm passing through her back and touching her shoulders. Madam Xing's body visibly shrank and a look of pain appeared on her face.

Mo Zhichun thought it was the candlelight problem and that he didn't see it clearly. He looked at Madam Xing again. She and Xing Nianyu were sitting at the main table arm in arm, chatting with everyone, and then left early on the pretext of feeling unwell.

When Xing Nianyu sent his wife back to the yard, a group of people began to praise Mr. Xing for his thoughtfulness and care for Mrs. Xing.

"With a husband like this, what more could a husband ask for? Brother Xing, it is a great blessing for my sister-in-law to meet you."

"Brother Xing, you are so considerate. I see my sister-in-law's eyes are red. She must be reluctant to let her daughter get married. You are worried that my sister-in-law will catch a cold, so you asked her to leave early."

The friends at the main table teased Xing Nianyu one after another. Xing Nianyu smiled and said nothing. He picked up his glass and clinked glasses with everyone, seemingly agreeing with this speculation.

After the wedding banquet was over, Mo Zhichun and Pei Qiubai strolled hand in hand under the starlight to digest their food, and then found an inn to rest.

After a few days of repeating the same thing, Mo Zhichun was surprised to find that after he had a body, he could experience the story as a bystander and was no longer passive. Pei Qiubai also did not possess anyone else. The two decided not to attend the wedding banquet, but to wait at the back door of Xing's house, waiting for the carriage carrying Xing Shu to see if there were any new clues.

In the afternoon, a carriage quietly left the back door of the Xing Mansion and headed straight for Nanshan. Mo Zhichun and Pei Qiubai determined the general direction, returned to the inn to check out, bought horses in the backyard, and rode out of the village in the direction of the carriage.

The carriage tracks disappeared after stopping at the gate of the dilapidated temple. There were messy footprints on the muddy ground at the gate of the dilapidated temple. The wet ground was a bit sticky, and the footprints were particularly obvious.

Pei Qiubai and Mo Zhichun released the horses outside the dilapidated temple. After hearing a few wailing sounds and the sound of dislocated bones coming from the temple, they walked in lightly.

The wooden door, which had little protection to begin with, was squeezed by external force. A figure and the wooden door flew from the steps into the yard. The man with a pointed face and thin cheeks lying on the wooden door spat out blood and fainted.

There were sounds of cursing in the room.

"That old thing, the mirage monster, wait until I get out, I'll kill him first. He's old but still plotting against us. He said he'd take us into Sister Mo's dream, but ended up taking us into a dark room. He didn't get any saplings, but he sent us to this damn place.

This group of people is impossible to kill, a bunch of losers, chattering all day long, like a toad wanting to eat swan meat. I am tired of listening to them talk every day, when will it end? "

"And you two, just watch me do it alone. Your characters are women, but your skills are not. Can't you help me?"

Gu Ye, wearing tattered clothes, looked at Nan Ke and Lin Yuan who were sitting on straw and silk blankets. These two were too immersed in the role.

That’s right, Miss Xing Shu is Nan Ke, the 1.9-meter-tall maid is Lin Yuan, and the most unlucky one is Gu Ye. He is the beggar, the servant who shouts everywhere, and the sedan bearer who carries the sedan at night...

"That's because you have no place to vent your anger, and it's causing trouble for those around you. So we're asking you to calm down. See how considerate we are."

Miss Xing Shu, who was throwing the embroidered bouquet, sat cross-legged on the blanket and opened her eyes to stroke Gu Ye's hair.

"Besides, have you ever seen the brains of a team fighting each other? Everyone has their own responsibilities, don't you understand, Nan Ke?"

The maid beside him yawned out of boredom, which ignited Gu Ye's anger to another level.

"I can't argue with you. Wait until I find Sister Mo. You two just wait for me, humph."

"Why, you want to complain? You are so old, and you still want to complain."

"Why can't I file a complaint? You guys are inhumane in exploiting the system, so you should be punished."

"Why haven't you ever thought that you are not the system?"

"If I am not the system, then what am I? I am the system."

Gu Ye resisted Nan Ke's question subjectively, and the words of denial came out of his mouth before the thoughts. However, the figure of the Tengu in the underworld flashed in his mind. If he was not a system, he should be a handsome and majestic Tengu like Senior He Feng.

"Then please ask my brain, Mr. Nan Ke, have you thought of a way out? When can we get out of this damn place and find Sister Mo and Brother Pei?"

Nan Ke touched the black mark on his wrist, trying to establish contact with the owner. Suddenly, he stood up from the blanket and ran to the yard. He happened to meet the eyes of the awakened hooligan, who was crawling towards the door, shouting in a confident tone, "You, you, you... don't come over here. Devil, there is a devil."

Nan Ke looked at the two people standing in the yard dodging the hooligans, and waved his hands in defense without much confidence: "It wasn't me and my second brother who did it, it was my eldest brother who did it."

"Nan Ke, what's wrong with you? Rushing out of the house suddenly won't help you escape the fact that there is no solution."

Gu Ye and Lin Yuan also came to the yard. Looking at Mo Zhichun and Pei Qiubai standing beside them, Gu Ye subconsciously took a step back and pulled Lin Yuan behind him. But he saw Nan Ke step forward and bow to apologize to the two.

"I'm sorry, I didn't stop them. I fell into the trap of the mirage monster and almost lost the seeds."

"Ako has done a great job. At least no one was injured. This is the best result."

Mo Zhichun held Pei Qiubai's hand and stroked the boy's lowered head with his free hand, comforting the self-blaming cat.

"Don't do it again." Pei Qiubai knew the situation and did not punish Nan Ke. After all, he was just a child and it was normal for him to do things immaturely and without consideration. In a passive situation, the best situation was to keep his life safe.

Then, he didn't know what he was thinking of, but he awkwardly reached out and patted Nan Ke's shoulder like a good brother.

"Nan Ke, are they really Sister Mo and Brother Pei? Could it be that the mirage monster has come again?"

Gu Ye looked at Nan Ke who took the initiative to get close to the two of them, but he still protected Lin Yuan behind him and refused to take a step forward.

"This time it's not fake, it's really Sister Mo and Brother Pei. How about you try to let Sister Mo kiss you and see if Brother Pei will beat you up?"

Nan Ke thought of the scene created by the mirage monster, and it was thanks to Gu Ye's loophole that he was able to quickly uncover the mirage monster's conspiracy.

"How could it be possible that I would take the initiative to kiss Gu Ye's humanoid? The most I can do to express intimacy with him is a fist bump."
