Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.

Hearing footsteps, the Fourth Master raised his head and saw Qiuyue's swollen lips. His brows knitted even tighter, and he asked in a strange tone, "Are you his sister?"

Qiuyue's face suddenly flushed red. At this moment, she felt extremely socially frustrated and wanted to turn around and leave. She turned her head and said, "Hey, you heard him call me sister, didn't you?"

The corner of the Fourth Master's mouth twitched for a moment, then he pointed to the stone chair in front and said, "Sit down."

Qiuyue pursed her swollen lips, sat down, and asked, "What year is it now?"

The Fourth Master lowered his head and continued to wipe his claws. He replied, "It's 50 years now."

Qiuyue widened her eyes slightly and uttered an unbelievable sound: "Huh?"

"50?!"

Qiuyue's voice was full of surprise, which made him look up: "Yes, it is 50."

Qiuyue was dumbfounded.

That shouldn't be the case. Didn't Yunyun say that Heaven's Law would delay the time by several decades? How could it be 50?

Before the accident happened, when she was still at Baima's mother's house, they were in 48, which is only two years different from now. Could it be that Yunyun's test was wrong?

That's not right. It's impossible that Yunyun could detect this incorrectly.

Could it be that everyone else is in the future, and only she and Chenpi are left in the past 50 years?

Besides feeling puzzled and astonished, Qiuyue couldn't help but feel regretful. The Baima Three Days of Silence lasted for about 49 years. If they had come earlier, she could have found a way to rescue Baima's mother during that time period. But now it's been 50 years, and the Three Days of Silence has already passed...

Qiuyue sighed. The Fourth Master wiped the hook claws that had been polished to the point of reflecting light and asked casually, "How did you and him know each other?"

Qiuyue paused and said, "It was about 20 years ago, when I first arrived in Changsha. I met him by the moat outside Changsha City. He was very thin at the time, catching crabs with this tattered bamboo basket by the river."

"Something happened at that time. His bamboo basket was broken and the crabs ran away. I wanted to compensate him with a new bamboo basket and take him to eat noodles. But he refused to eat and took me back to his own home. However, due to special circumstances, I couldn't stay at his house. So I gave him some silver and gold and asked him to go and treat my grandmother's illness. That was how we first met."

"20 years? How many years was it back there before you came to this world?"

This stumped Qiuyue. If she said it was also 48, how would she explain that Chenpi, who was the same age as her, looked a dozen years younger than the Fourth Master in front of her?

"What, you don't know?"

Chen Pi placed the claw in his hand on the table and looked up at her. She sighed and said, "It was 48."

"Only two years ago? He only looked twenty."

The Fourth Master's tone was a little gloomy, and he didn't quite believe what he said. Chenpi really looked too young.

They are the same age, but one looks only about twenty years old.

He looked up and down at the charming woman in front of him, and then remembered how Qiuyue had coaxed Chenpi and taken care of him just now, and his fingers curled up slightly.

It can't be that he looks so young because he is favored by the woman in front of him, right?

As soon as this thought came to his mind, the Fourth Master found it absurd and funny, and immediately dismissed the idea. He now had only one problem.

"That Chenpi, did he also take Er Yuehong as his master like me? Was he also expelled from the sect?"

When the Fourth Master asked this question, Qiuyue was stunned for a moment. She thought he would ask about the maid, but she didn't expect that he would ask about Chenpi and Eryuehong?

Although she didn't understand why the Fourth Master asked this, Qiuyue still told him.

"Yes, like you, he took Er Yuehong as his master. However, he was not expelled from the sect, but became a disciple. After becoming a disciple, he took over everything of Huang Kui."

"This is impossible."

The Fourth Master looked at me with disbelief. He said, "If your Chenpi becomes my Fourth Master like me, he will definitely be expelled from the sect. Changsha City cannot tolerate a single dominant force."

"I'm not lying to you. Actually, although there are nine clans in Changsha City in our world, their strength varies. The largest of them is the Zhang family, which is run by Zhang Qishan, the defense commander. Next is the Hong family, run by Er Yuehong, the Chen family, run by Chen Pi, and then the Xie family, run by Xie Jiu."

Speaking of these people, Qiuyue sighed.

She really hadn't seen them for a long time. She missed them so much and didn't know if Yunyun had found them.

The Fourth Master frowned upon hearing this and said, "That's simply impossible. You're lying to me. If there are nine sects, how can a few dominate? Aren't there any unrest happening there?"

Qiuyue shook her head. "No, at least in the decades since the Nine Sects were established, each family has been very obedient. Zhang Qishan was suppressing them, so they didn't dare to move."

What's more, Zhang Qishan, Er Yuehong and the others are all cultivators. Even if someone wanted to make trouble at the beginning, they were all wiped out later.

After hearing this, the Fourth Master suddenly realized something he had been missing for decades. He suddenly asked, "How old were you when you met him 20 years ago?"

Qiuyue subconsciously said: "24, what's wrong?"

However, she realized something was wrong as soon as she responded. Her whole body stiffened and she looked up at the Fourth Master. Sure enough, his eyes were extremely sharp and he stared at her so intently that Qiuyue's scalp tingled.

He stopped talking and just stared at her, but the meaning in his eyes was very clear.

If she was 20 when she met Chenpi 24 years ago, why did she still look young when she came into this world with Chenpi 48 years ago?

It can be imagined that she has immortality.

Qiuyue was stared at so hard that she didn't dare look at him. She looked away, coughed lightly, and said, "Thank you for your kindness in keeping us here. We will leave after a while. If you need any help during this time, you can ask me, if I can help you."

"Then can you bring the dead back to life?"

He suddenly asked, and Qiuyue felt like rolling her eyes.

You don't have to think about who this question is for.

Who else could it be? It’s for the girl.

She looked speechless and said, "You have to ask the gods about this. I am just an ordinary person."

The Fourth Master knew this was impossible, so he just casually asked, "Why didn't that bullet hit you?"

Qiuyue then remembered that no one in this world had seen her amulet yet. With this amulet in hand, she might even be treated as a guest of honor.

Thinking of this, Qiuyue couldn't help but frown. She said, "So this is what you're curious about. If it's this, then it's easy to explain, but..."

"but what?"

Seeing that he had a chance to know the answer, the Fourth Master sat up straight, placed his hands on the stone table, looked at her and asked.

Qiuyue chuckled.

"If I say you can do this, do you want it?"

The Fourth Master's pupils shrank. He still remembered the scene very clearly. But according to what she said, was it possible for him to get such protection?

"What's the price?"

No matter what it is in this world, you have to pay a certain price to get it. This is what the Fourth Master has been clear about for many years, so when Qiuyue asked this question, he knew that he must have to pay something.

Qiuyue paused. She didn't expect that he would ask the question so immediately. She looked at him and then looked thoughtful.

The Fourth Master in this world is not the Chen Pi she met when she was a child. He has experienced the decades of experience in the original novel and has long been a cruel and ruthless person. He is a completely different person from the Chen Pi she raised.

According to the plot she remembered, this Fourth Master joined the Kuomintang as a platoon leader in the early days of liberation. A few years later, for some unknown reason, he became a bandit for a few years. Then there was the brutal village massacre. After being wanted, he left Guangxi.

Thinking of the village massacre, Qiuyue frowned, and then she thought of an earlier time.

In the original novel, half a year after Yatou's death, Chen Pi slaughtered all the vendors on Changsha Nanhe Beach, and their deaths were simply because they did not sell noodles to Er Yuehong and the dying Yatou.

Although there is no way to undo the tragedy of Nanhe Beach, she still has a chance to change the massacre of the village in the next few years.

The possibility of turning this already vicious and cruel Chenpi A Si into a good person is absolutely zero, so she has to be tactful.

"Fourth Master."

Qiuyue suddenly called out to him, "Do you still remember that time when one hundred coins killed a man?"

The Fourth Master frowned: "What do you want to say?"

Qiuyue did not respond to his words, but continued to ask: "Do you still remember why you slaughtered Huang Kui four times?"

The Fourth Master showed displeasure: "Just say what you want to say!"

Qiuyue suddenly remembered the man who killed Huang Kui. In fact, she was also very confused. How could the man who was willing to wait until the last penny to kill Huang Kui for the sake of a child become so unable to distinguish right from wrong and so full of evil?

She looked at him with a hint of regret.

Qiuyue sighed and said, "If you want to have the ability to block bullets that I just had, you must promise me that you will never kill innocent people again. I know that you are the famous Chenpi Ah Si, and both you and your subordinates have blood on your hands. I don't expect you to become a good person. I just want you to stop hurting innocent people. It can be considered as a way to accumulate merit for your master's wife."

The Fourth Master was extremely displeased by her gaze, even a little angry. Did he really need others to feel sorry for him?!

But when he thought of that miraculous ability just now, he suppressed his anger and said, "Is that all? Asking me not to kill innocent people? What does this have to do with my master's wife?"

"Yes, I just want you not to kill innocent people."

Qiuyue was a little surprised. She had thought that adding the question about the girl would make him agree, but she didn't expect him to actually ask what the relationship was with the girl. Although she was a little puzzled, Qiuyue didn't want to know about what was going on between them. She nodded, looked at him and said, "Just tell me whether you agree or not."

The Fourth Master thought about it and felt that there was nothing to lose, so he agreed directly: "Okay, I promise you, I will not attack innocent people in the future, and I will also control my subordinates and prevent them from doing such things."

Hearing his agreement, Qiuyue nodded and stretched out her little hand towards him: "Stretch out your hand."

The Fourth Master paused slightly and stretched out a hand. Qiuyue reached out and pinched his fingers, then lowered her head and drew a peace talisman directly on the palm of her hand.

When she held his hand, the Fourth Master wanted to pull it back for a moment. He pursed his lips and watched her drawing something on his palm. The touch of her soft fingertips across his palm was inexplicably itchy, making his arms tense.

Qiuyue finished drawing the amulet in a few seconds, released her hand and said, "It's done."

The Fourth Master's eyes showed disbelief. Qiuyue reached out and grabbed his sleeve, pulling it up, pointing to a red dot that suddenly appeared on his wrist. "Here, this is it," she said. "This red dot can protect you. It can protect you when you're in danger, just like when you shot me just now. The bullet was blocked and couldn't hit me. It can also protect you from poison. It's like giving you an extra life. However, after protecting you once, the red dot will disappear. If you're hit again, you could still die."

Upon hearing this, the Fourth Master stared at the red dot. He always did what he thought of, so he stood up, pulled out the gun he had picked up from his waist, and shot himself in the thigh. The bang scared Qiuyue again, and he had already squatted down to pick up the bullet that fell on the ground.

Sure enough, the bullet was exactly the same as the previous one, and the head was deformed.

He lifted up his sleeves and saw that the red dot was indeed gone.

He put the gun on the table, sat down again, looked at Qiuyue, said nothing, and shamelessly stretched out his hand again.

Qiuyue looked at him and laughed a little out of anger.

"Fourth Master, your skin has always been surprisingly defensive."

The Fourth Master remained completely calm after hearing what she said. Qiuyue didn't expect him to say anything, so she grabbed his fingers again and drew another one on the palm of his hand.

Feeling the itch in his palm once again, Chen Pi no longer tensed his arms. After she finished painting, he said, "You can stay here as long as you want. If you need anything, please ask my subordinates to take care of it. I will tell them."

Qiuyue thought for a moment and said, "I want to go outside and see how the world outside is different from ours. Also, Chenpi can't get up for the time being. He has some problems and his body is not working well. I want someone to help look after him while I'm outside and help him if he needs anything."

Upon hearing this, the Fourth Master didn't want her to leave. With such great abilities, if he could keep her, wouldn't he be able to save countless lives? But there seemed no reason to stop her. Besides, with another Chen Pi here, she wouldn't run away. He said, "If you want to go out, stay with me. You have such a face, it's not safe for you to go out alone. As for Chen Pi, I will arrange for someone to take care of him."

After hearing this, Qiuyue thought about it and found that it was indeed a good idea. Chenpi Asi was powerful and the people he contacted were all related to the original plot. If she went out on her own, she might not even meet any important people. What's more, she couldn't figure out what went wrong at this time, so it would be better not to leave this place too far.

Thinking of this, Qiuyue nodded and agreed.
