【Welcome to the A+ level multiplayer exploration dungeon】

【Song of Resentment (15/15)】

Your name is Tao Wu. When you were young, you left your Tulou hometown with your parents and moved to the big city. But not long ago, you received a letter from your great-grandmother...

[Clearance requirements: Exploration degree reaches 100%]

Lian Wu stood on the side of a desolate dirt road with a suitcase at his feet. He observed his surroundings calmly and found that there were six other players here.

The left hand holding the suitcase handle was gently pulled up. Feng Ling was wearing sportswear and a pair of sunglasses. Unlike others, he stuffed all his luggage in the copy into his mountaineering bag.

Hua Meng and Xie Ning were also there. Hua Meng and Lian Wu were both dressed in casual clothes, while Xie Ning was wearing a gray coat and carrying a wooden box in his hand.

To Xie Ning's left was a red-haired girl with many rivet decorations on her face, and behind her was a tall and thin man dressed as a page boy.

The tall, thin man, who appeared to have come in as part of a group, had been talking to the girl in a light yellow lolita. However, it was a one-sided conversation; the lolita girl never said a word in return, merely nodding to indicate understanding.

Hua Meng recognized the identity of the red-haired girl.

He whispered, "The new number 17 on the list is Mo Ru. Earthworm's rank dropped significantly after we destroyed his puppet."

"Also, I've seen your novice copy. She and that Feng Fu are from the same guild. I'm not sure if she'll come out on behalf of the guild to assert her authority, but the probability is very low, after all, it's been so long."

Hua Meng reminded Lian Wu to be careful.

After a while, fog gradually rose around, hiding the continuous mountain peaks.

It was foggy and almost pitch dark. Vision was obstructed, but hearing was extremely sensitive.

The sound of gongs and drums gradually came from the distance, and even the sound of suona could be heard.

Lian Wu stretched out his hand and a rose-red paper money floated into his hand. The unusual color aroused the player's vigilance.

I crushed it lightly with my hand and found that it had no special texture. Apart from the color, it was no different from ordinary paper money.

Gradually, a figure emerged from the fog. It was a hunched old man with white hair. He scanned the crowd with his cloudy eyes. When he saw Mo Ru, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of disgust.

"You are all here to attend Nian Yatou's wedding, come with me."

The old, hoarse voice made it impossible to tell whether it was a man or a woman.

The old man walked unsteadily with a cane, and the players followed behind him. The fog gradually dissipated where the old man walked.

Feng Ling gradually frowned. The surrounding scenery was completely different from what he saw at first. There were many earthen buildings and some unclear buildings in the mountains.

Just when the players wanted to maintain this eerie silence, a hearty voice broke it all.

"Old man, I wonder if there are any taboos at this wedding? I'm the bride's distant cousin and was a Feng Shui master for a while. If you need me, please let me know."

The person who spoke was Xie Ning, who was always good at talking.

The old man remained unmoved. As they walked, he continued, "We don't have many taboos. Just remember these three things. First, you can only go out when it's foggy during the day, and not at night. Second, the wedding will last for three days, and during these three days, no one may touch the bride's belongings. Third, keep the doors and windows closed at night. If you think someone is in your room, go to your grandmother the next day to exorcise the bad air."

"Thank you. May I ask your name?" Xie Ning took the opportunity to get closer and carefully observed the old man's facial features and neck. He had a relatively obvious Adam's apple, so he seemed to be a man.

"This is Taojiazhai. What do you think my last name is?"

"What a sin! I haven't been here for years, and I've completely forgotten all about my childhood."

Xie Ning solicited information skillfully, and the players following behind him took note silently.

"It's okay, grandma will teach you."

The journey was not far. After about ten minutes of walking, they arrived at a majestic earthen building.

A pale young man was standing at the foot of the earth building, holding a basket covered with floral cloth in his hand.

"Brought it."

The old man reached out to take the basket, then walked back the way he came.

Lian Wu was standing closest to the old man at this time and took a sneak peek.

That's a basket of eggs.

No wonder the old man told them that information. It turned out that he was not someone who participated in the wedding.

"Don't just stand there, grandma is waiting for you inside."

The young man led them into the earth building and walked towards the corridor on the right.

But the players' attention was always focused on the huge stage in the center of the earth building.

The stage is interwoven with red and white, and the red and white curtains cover the stage, so the players cannot tell what is covered inside.

The earthen building was much newer than they had imagined; at least the stairs didn't creak when they walked on them.

The young man took them upstairs, where the room where the grandmother lived faced the back of the stage.

Players can even reach the red cloth on the stage from the fence.

The exquisite carved wooden door was pushed open, and a solemn old man with silver hair was sitting in the middle, and there were many people standing in the room.

Zhou Yixi was among them. She was wearing a dark blue cheongsam with floral patterns, and her fingers hidden under her handkerchief were quietly pointing at several people nearby.

The teammates quickly received the information and paid attention to those people.

Those are all players.

Including Zhou Yixi, there were originally four players in this room, as well as several members of the Tao family.

Grandma's deep voice came: "Are you all here?"

The young man bowed respectfully and said, "Yes, Grandma, it's all here."

"Give the order, it's time to close the door."

"Yes."

When the young man left, he did not forget to close the door, leaving the players to face the old lady.

"Miss Ru and Miss Tan, come closer."

Mo Ru and the loli player took two cautious steps forward.

After seeing Mo Ru's appearance, the grandmother couldn't help but frown.

"You are Tao Lu, girl. How did your beautiful face become so ruined? How will you get married in the future? In the past three days, everything on your face has gone. Girls should take care of their faces. Learn from your sister Yi Xi, who has grown up to be a graceful young lady beside me. You shouldn't have let your parents take you out earlier. Wouldn't it be better for you to stay with me?"

Seeing that Mo Ru didn't respond, the grandmother shook her head in disappointment and turned to look at the loli player.

"Tao Tan girl is just like your mother, very pretty. In the early years, your mother was my favorite. It seems your mother raised you well."

"Thank you for the compliment, Grandma."

After evaluating the two female players, grandma's eyes swept over the male players.

Unlike the other players, Xie Ning is older than them, and according to the rules, he should call Old Lady Tao "Grandma".

"Tao Ning, you're still learning Feng Shui. You're just like your grandfather, stubborn as hell. But that's okay. Your sister Anian is getting married soon. You should take care of the Feng Shui and make sure nothing goes wrong."

"Don't worry, grandma."

The grandmother didn't seem familiar with the remaining people. After a simple greeting, she asked Zhou Yixi to take them out.

When they came out, they found the young man still guarding the door.

"Take you to your room and tell you some taboos about grandma."

"Grandma takes a nap every day. Don't disturb her after dinner. When she wakes up, a bell will ring in the building. The great-grandchildren must go to greet her within a quarter of an hour, and the grandchildren must go to greet her at seven in the morning. Grandma is very particular about etiquette. You must not break the rules on a daily basis. Today, we have been reunited after a long time, so I didn't make a fuss about it. But next time, you won't be treated like that."

They walked to the left side of the building. "This is Uncle Tao Ning's house. Here are the keys."

Although Xie Ning still maintained a kind smile on his face, he was actually quite angry at the word "uncle".

This young man looks one or two years older than him!

However, he also knew that the other party called him that because of seniority, so he didn't think too much about it. After taking the key and confirming that he could open the door, he continued to follow him to check out other rooms.

The great-grandchildren all live on the third floor. They used to take the west stairs to go to the second floor, but now they go around to the other side and take the east stairs.

The layout of the earth building is symmetrical, and even the potted plants placed outside each room correspond to each other.
