Ling Xiao knew that this innocent and curious child was quite interesting to see.

After Wu Xie finished showering, Ling Xiao went to the lobby with them for dinner. Wu Sansheng ordered beer and said to Ling Xiao, "Thank you for taking care of me today, Brother Ling Xiao!"

Ling Xiao also grabbed a beer and drank it. He had never drunk alcohol before, but he felt that this amount should be fine.

[Host, aren't you afraid of being punished for drinking alcohol without permission?]

'That's strange, do I need permission to drink anything?'

【certainly】

'I've already drunk it, what can you do about it?'

Then the host can expect to be punished.

Ling Xiao felt he couldn't get angry; if he did, he would fall into the system's trap.

“Brother Lingxiao, we’re going to do some business tomorrow. Would you like to come with us?” Wu Sansheng suddenly asked.

"Buying and selling?" Ling Xiao asked curiously.

"Of course there are risks, but we also believe in Brother Lingxiao's abilities. You just need to help me protect my nephew, okay? I'll give you this amount after it's done." He then gestured with his fingers.

[Please grant Wu Sansheng's request to travel together to the Seven Star Lu Palace, protect Wu Xie, and assist Xiao Ge.]

'I won't agree. You won't even let me drink, and you expect me to accommodate you?' Anyway, it's just something he imagined. How could he let himself be manipulated?

[If the host does not agree, they will be punished with an electric shock! The punishment effect will be doubled.]

"Okay," Ling Xiao thought about the scene and agreed.

Wu Sansheng felt a weight lifted from his heart. Ling Xiao could recognize the corpse beetle at a glance and kept the thousand-year-old zombie far away. With him around, there was a greater chance of success in this tomb raiding. As for Xiao Ge, although he was very strong, he always disappeared. If he and Xiao Ge disappeared, who would protect his nephew? Now that Ling Xiao was there, his nephew's safety was guaranteed.

Fueled by alcohol, Wu Sansheng asked the waiter a few more questions. After discussing it, the group decided to travel light the next day and went back to their rooms.

After Ling Xiao returned to his room, he heard the system asking him if he was ready to accept punishment. Ling Xiao quickly ran into the bathroom.

Wu Xie was about to ask him what was wrong when he heard him lock the door from the inside. Wu Xie didn't think much of it; he had drunk a bit too much, so he went to sleep.

After seeing that he had fallen asleep, the young man stood at the bathroom door and heard painful groans coming from inside. About 20 minutes later, Ling Xiao came out of the bathroom.

Ling Xiao looked up and saw someone standing in front of him. The electric shock had blurred his vision, making it difficult to see clearly. He thought it looked like Xiao Ge. He asked awkwardly, "Do you need to use the restroom? Sorry for taking up so much time." Then he walked towards the bed.

"Mouth," the young man said.

"Mouth?" Ling Xiao didn't understand. He raised his hand and touched his mouth, only to find that it was bleeding a lot.

So he hurriedly ran over to get some paper to wipe himself, but because the electric shock had lasted too long, he lost his balance and fell flat on his face. He crawled over to get some tissues.

The young man tried to help him up, but he quickly stopped him, saying, "Don't touch me!"

The young man stared blankly at him, then looked at his own hands.

Ling Xiao crawled to the bedside, took out a tissue to wipe his mouth, then wiped his hands, and then crawled over to wipe the blood on the floor.

Ling Xiao returned to the bathroom and found that the floor was also covered in blood. He started wiping the floor again and looked up at the mouth in the mirror.

The wound was deep; a piece of flesh had been bitten off his mouth and was hanging inside. Because the biting had lasted for so long, Ling Xiao's mouth was numb, so he didn't feel any pain.

Ling Xiao washed off the bloodstains, put a tissue in his mouth, and came out of the bathroom again.

"Sorry, you can use it," Ling Xiao mumbled to the deliveryman.

"I don't need it," the young man said.

Ling Xiao nodded and said, "Then let's go to sleep."

After saying that, he took the tissue out of his mouth and threw it into the trash can.

"I need some medicine applied," the young man said.

"No need," Ling Xiao replied.

The young man didn't insist any further and went to sleep.

That night, Ling Xiao chuckled and teased the system, "System, why don't I die from drinking my own blood?"

This is the host's bloodline; of course the host won't die.

'So, does that mean I'm immune to all poisons? After all, even such a potent poison couldn't kill me.'

[Of course the host is immune to all poisons; the bloodline isn't fake.]

'Will you die without me?'

No, but the host will die without me.

'Okay, go to sleep!'

In fact, today's electric shock even made Ling Xiao feel a little pleasure. He was learning to slowly adapt to the pain and turn the pain into fun, after all, he might have to live with pain for the rest of his life.

The next morning, Wu Xie woke up to find Ling Xiao's swollen lips and burst into laughter: "Ling Xiao, did some girl take a liking to you and sneakily kiss you in the middle of the night?"

Ling Xiao said good-naturedly, "Yeah, a pretty girl insisted on kissing me in the middle of the night, it was really too intense."

Wu Xie believed these words and kept wondering why the pretty girl didn't kiss him. Was it because he went to bed too early?

Wu Sansheng and his friends burst into laughter when they saw Ling Xiao's mouth. After they finished laughing, they hurriedly ate their breakfast. The landlady was very kind and called a naked child to lead the way.

Ling Xiao's mouth hurt, so he didn't eat much. The group divided up their equipment and set off.

The little boy led everyone for two hours, and finally pointed to a mountain path: "There it is!"

This is a river, blocked by a large rock in the middle, making it impossible to walk. Wu Xie patted the child's head, and the child turned to ask him for 50.

Everyone laughed, and Uncle San gave him a hundred-yuan note.

Wu Xie sighed, "Kids these days are so mercenary."

Da Kui was saying that people die for birds, and Pan Zi started arguing with him about whether he was cultured or not.

After crossing the rocks, they saw the forest and the canyon. Lingxiao saw the old man who was with the boatman.

[Ding—Congratulations, host, for completing the mission. You have joined the Wuxie team and traveled with them to the Seven Star Lu Palace. You will receive two days of health and an upgrade to the Thousand-Mechanism Umbrella (Grappling Hook)]

"It's upgraded again," Ling Xiao said, looking at the Thousand Chance Umbrella in his hand.

"What are you looking at?" Wu Xie asked, leaning closer.

“That old man,” Ling Xiao replied, pointing to the old man who was drawing water.

"It's that boatman's accomplice!" Wu Xie shouted as he turned around.

The old man saw them and turned to run. Panzi took out his pistol and fired at the sand dune in front of the old man. The old man was so frightened that he quickly changed direction. Panzi fired several more shots at the old man's footprints.

The old man was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy. We ran down to him, and he said, "Gentlemen, please spare my life! I had no other choice but to try to take advantage of you. I never expected you to be such great people. I was blind and didn't recognize your greatness!"

Panzi asked him why he ran away, but the old man started talking about his family and the boatman, and then mentioned that there was a fox spirit in the mountains, a blue-eyed fox corpse.

"Stop wasting your breath on him, let him lead the way." Ling Xiao really didn't want to look at this guy's face; he was so fake.

Wu Sansheng and the others agreed and asked him to lead the way. When the old man heard that they were tomb raiders, he quickly tried to stop them. Seeing that they wouldn't listen to his advice, he silently led the way.
