The mountain I contracted can connect the past and the present

Chapter 23: The S-level mission character is actually an old man?

This is the face of an old man with an old and thin face and a deep sorrow between his eyebrows.

It was very close, almost sticking to the door.

This scene made Yun Xinyue's eyebrows twitch several times, and she almost jumped up. She managed to hold back the scream from her throat.

What's the situation?

Lan Ci immediately protected her behind him, narrowed his eyes slightly, and shot a cold look at the old man: "Who are you?"

He asked like a master, "What are you doing here?"

Look at this old man. He is wearing a washed-out robe with a rather strange style. It doesn't look like the style of the Dading Dynasty, but he should be an ordinary citizen from somewhere.

The old man stepped back again and again, waving his hands, with an apologetic attitude, "Sorry, sorry, I shouldn't have done this."

"I was just wondering why there was a door here. I was worried it was something bad, so I came in to see what was going on. Who knew it would turn out like this?"

He originally wanted to find a place to die, but suddenly a door like this appeared in front of him.

Originally, he didn't want to bother with this door, but this door was very close to the village where he had lived all his life. He was worried about the impact on the village and wanted to resolve the matter before he died.

As soon as Yun Xinyue heard this, she knew that this old man was the S-level mission that the system had mentioned before.

She pulled Lan Ci's sleeve and smiled, "Mr. Lan, this gentleman is my guest, you don't have to worry."

“I just didn’t react.”

Anyone who suddenly sees such a big face would be shocked.

Lan Ci knew that Yun Xinyue had many secrets, so he didn't investigate or ask any more questions. "Since you are Miss Yun's guest, I won't bother you any more."

He gave a few words of advice, "Miss Yun, you should be more careful and on guard."

He has seen too much ugliness and dark side of human nature.

Yun Xinyue nodded and agreed, smiling slightly, as bright as a spring flower, "Don't worry, Master Lan, I will pay more attention."

"Okay, I won't see you off. Take care, Mr. Lan."

Lan Ci said nothing more and just walked away.

After he left, Yun Xinyue smiled faintly and made a gesture of invitation to the old man: "Old man, please come in and sit down."

It's really hard to tell that such an old man is actually doing an S-level mission.

The old man shook his head anxiously, as if he was afraid of defiling everything in the house. "No, no, I'm just passing by to take a look. Miss, please close the door quickly. Be careful not to be seen by the villagers."

This girl's clothes are really strange, and even the place where she lives is strange.

Yun Xinyue would not let the mission character leave. If the mission character left, she would be severely punished. This is an S-level mission.

"Old man, the fact that you can come here means that you have a wish that has not been fulfilled."

Her attitude was as gentle as spring breeze, and she once again made a gesture of invitation, "This is a place where people can fulfill their wishes. Please come in, and I will help you fulfill your wish."

The old man opened his mouth, wanting to say that he didn't have any wishes.

But when the words came to his lips, it was as if there was cotton in his throat and he couldn't say anything.

"Old man, come in." Yun Xinyue said jokingly with a smile, "I'm not afraid of you getting angry. With your appearance, there's nothing I can do to deceive you."

The old man thought about it and looked at his appearance. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Miss, you are right. How can you deceive me with my appearance?"

"Forget it, just think of it as a last-minute enjoyment before death."

He didn't know if he had figured it out, but he strode in.

As soon as he stepped in, he felt that this place was stranger and different from anything he had ever seen in his life. It looked like a ghost place.

Could this girl be a transformed monster?

Yun Xinyue noticed his strange look, but she didn't understand it. "Old man, I don't know how to address you."

She introduced herself. "My name is Yun Xinyue. You can just call me by my name. We don't have so many rules here."

"Miss Yun, you can just call me Old Man Sun. That's what everyone in the village calls me." Old Man Sun hunched his back slightly.

Although there was a smile on his face, it looked painful.

Yun Xinyue really wanted to find out everything about him immediately so that she could complete the task as quickly as possible, but she knew she couldn't do that.

If it were her, she would be wary and cautious when she first arrived in a strange place.

She thought about it and came up with an idea, "Grandpa Sun, I'm going to the market later, do you want to go?"

"Our market here is very unique and lively. I believe you will like it."

Seeing Grandpa Sun like this, it seemed that he had lost hope in life, so she had to find a way to make him have hope in life again.

Old Man Sun shook his head slowly, "I won't go."

"Sorry to trouble Miss Yun, I will stay here for a while and then leave."

He was already very happy to encounter such a wonderful thing before his death, and he didn't dare to ask for more.

Yun Xinyue's eyes rolled and she came up with an idea.

She suddenly sighed, with a look of pain on her face, "To be honest with you, Grandpa Sun, I am an orphan, and my family died a long time ago. This time, I was thinking that someone could accompany me to the market."

As she spoke, she sobbed twice.

It’s really no wonder that she used this method. The consequences of letting the mission person run away are too serious.

Old Man Sun was a kind-hearted man. He felt very sympathetic towards Yun Xinyue when he heard this. “Well… I’m willing to accompany Miss Yun to the market, but I’m afraid of losing face for you.”

Just like his children and grandchildren, they all thought that his appearance was shameful and had long stopped associating with him, no longer caring whether he lived or died.

"Grandpa Sun, what you said is so strange. Why should I feel ashamed of you?" Yun Xinyue smiled softly and said, "Grandpa Sun can follow me to the market, I should be happy, I won't feel ashamed of you."

She really didn't think that Grandpa Sun was ashamed, because having someone accompany her to the market was a very happy and joyful thing.

Old Man Sun was slightly startled and looked at her in surprise for several seconds.

Suddenly, his eyes turned red and he wiped them with his sleeves. "Since Miss Yun doesn't think I'm embarrassed, I'll go to the market with you."

How many years has it been? No one needs him anymore.

Yun Xinyue slowed down her voice, "Then it's settled, we'll go to the market later and see if there's anything we can do."

It seems that Grandpa Sun also needs someone to accompany him.

Old Man Sun groaned, wiping the tears from his eyes with his sleeves, "Okay, okay, let's go to the market later."

Just think of it as him fulfilling Miss Yun’s wish before he died.

Yun Xinyue felt relieved when she heard that. Fortunately, she stayed with Grandpa Sun, otherwise who knows what would have happened.

"Grandpa Sun, shall we change into our clothes first?"
