Before I became the legendary boss
Chapter 9 Small Town Mystery
When Li Ying and He Rong walked back to the Huang Mansion, it was nearly dusk.The door of the Huang family, which was always open on weekdays, was closed tightly for some reason, and there were servants outside the door looking out.
problem occurs!The two looked at each other and quickened their pace.
Following the voice of the people to the meeting hall, the whole hall seemed to reappear from yesterday, but the people on the ground changed from Aunt Ye to dumb slaves.His whole body was tied up, the thick rope was stuck in his flesh, and a dirty cloth was stuffed in his mouth, and the cloth was stained with blood.He Rong stepped forward quickly, but was stopped by someone.
"Sir, stop and don't stain your eyes."
He Rong looked up at Master Huang who was seated above, and saw that his face was expressionless, and there seemed to be a coldness in his eyes.
"Bold slave! Don't hurry up and confess!!" The butler shouted from the side. "Stop stubbornly resisting! Waste your master's time!!"
Hearing this, the servant at the side kicked the dumb slave hard in the stomach, and he shrank his body convulsively, revealing a large swath of whip marks and bloodstains on his back.He Rong shook off those who blocked him, walked to the center of the hall, and saluted Huang Rencai.
"Master Huang, this dumb slave has been working tirelessly and meticulously in our courtyard. I don't know what he has committed now to receive such a severe punishment?"
"Mr. Han, I advise you to meddle in your own business," Xu Bo said coldly. "This is a family matter of our Huang family. Why do you want to get involved as a scholar? It's not good to say it."
He Rong looked at him. "Then what do you call it?" He pointed to the mute slave on the ground. "You tortured a dumb man indiscriminately and forced him to confess his guilt. Is that good?"
Uncle Xu seemed to be taken aback by this normally silent little gentleman, and he took a beat to recover.
"Mr. Han, what you said is wrong. Our master Huang is the most fair and strict. Today, it was the dumb slave who committed a heinous crime. The evidence is solid, and the family law was violated."
"What crime did he commit?"
Xu Bo pondered. "Forget it, I'll let you give up." He attracted the shivering servant who was huddled in a corner.
"Tell me, tell my husband what you saw last night. If you dare to lie, I will pull out your tongue and throw it into the river to feed the fish!"
The boy was trembling, tearing and talking about how he woke up in the middle of the night last night, heard a strange noise outside, went to look in the dark, but saw the wall of the yard where the dumb slave was burning firewood turned over, and his face turned ferocious, Shaped like a ghost.He was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak out, and he didn't dare to report to the steward until dawn.
"Small, you dare not lie to the master!!" He kowtowed as he spoke.
"Mr. Han, this person's evidence is solid and cannot be faked. The dumb slave must have groped into the firewood room to kill and dismember the body last night. Such a dog who corrupted the family and avenged the family, you think the Huang family should not clean up the house?"
wrong.He Rong thought, last night he clearly heard the movement in the dumb slave's room, and the dumb slave was indeed in He Rong's yard at that time, but a mute could not make a sound, how could he prove that it was a dumb slave?He looked around at the faces in the hall.Every face is full of dumb slaves should confess this crime and be beaten to death here.
In the end, Li Ying couldn't stand it anymore, and rushed forward to hold Master Huang.
"Father! Mr. Han is the most kind-hearted and kind-hearted. He doesn't want to see such a bloody scene. I don't think this dumb slave can breathe a lot. I beg you to show mercy and let him go. He won't survive tonight!!"
Li Ying used [-] kinds of martial arts to pester Mr. Huang to call him father, which made Mr. Huang gradually loosen his mouth. Xu Bo seemed to have something to say, but he finally gritted his teeth and asked the servant to let him go.
Still with Li Ying's help, the dumb slave was carried back to He Rong's yard. At this time, he was exhaling more air than inhaling, his face was black, unconscious, and his whole body was covered with dark brown blood scabs.Li Ying wanted to stay and help, but was called away by Mr. Huang.
He Rong fetched clean water, took off the sticky clothes on the dumb slave, and scrubbed his wound.His front body was covered with bruises, his back was covered with thick and long whip wounds, his skin was torn apart, it was very terrifying.In the bright red intertwined, you can vaguely see all kinds of old wounds, some are whip wounds, and some are in other shapes, which makes people feel cold on the soles of their feet.
He Rong thought, why are human beings so cruel to their own kind sometimes, why is it better to treat cats and dogs.He thought again and again, no, all of this was played by AI, not real.
But there is such a sentence in the novice guide of the game.
"All AI data is calculated from a large human sample database, which ensures the authenticity of the game."
What exactly is human "authenticity"?
He Rong's chest seemed to be surrounded by a large rain cloud. This was the first time he felt strong emotion since he woke up. It was heavy and damp, making him unable to breathe.He forced himself to stop thinking about it.
He Rong picked up his mobile phone, clicked on the mall, spent all the 100 points on his balance, and bought a bottle of basic wound medicine - Rejuvenation Pill.
[After taking it, it can quickly heal the wounds caused by ordinary weapons and return 100 points of blood. 】
He melted the elixir into the tea and let the dumb slave take it.The ups and downs of the dumb slave's chest became more and more obvious, and his complexion also improved.
Since entering the Huang's Mansion, the dumb slave has rescued He Rong twice, the time last night, he hadn't had time to thank him yet.Thinking about these things, He Rong heard someone knocking on the door outside, and when he opened the door, it was a thin and small child.
"I, I'm here to see... brother dumb slave... for the last time..."
His big eyes were full of tears and sadness.
He Rong told him that the dumb slave was fine, but he didn't believe it at first, but when he really touched the warm hand of the dumb slave, he immediately knelt down in front of He Rong.
"Thank you sir, thank you sir." He kowtowed.He Rong didn't have time to stop it. "Thank you for saving the dumb slave's life, I will repay your life-saving grace as a cow and a horse."
This child's name is Xiao Fuzi. He signed a slave status since he was a child and was sold into the Huangfu to do the most lowly work. He was also humiliated like a dumb slave, but he was very lucky because most of the time there was a dumb slave protecting him.
He Rong shook his head and said, "Tonight you secretly pulled a cart over, and we will send the dumb slave out. You take him and escape as far away as possible."
Xiao Fuzi seemed confused by He Rong's arrangement.He Rong told him that the Huang family would not leave dumb slaves alive until dawn.He dug out the money and some valuables that the Huang family gave him in advance from the room, and gave them all to Xiao Fuzi.
"Then what do you do, sir?" The child refused to accept.
"I don't need that."
No one can see his real poverty.
That night, while the guards at the back door were changing shifts, He Rong helped Xiao Fuzi transport the dumb slaves out. He stood in the alley at the back door and watched them go away.
At this time, the night wind was bitingly cold, blowing the red merciful off the wall, turning into a cold fragrance on He Rong's lips.
In whose eyes, this scene, like a second painting, fell into the heart.
***
The second master of the Huang family sat in the boat by the river and asked the girl in his arms to pour wine for him.He waved his fan and looked a little absent-minded.
His name is Zhang Chao, and he is quite experienced in the game. Although it has only been two months since he started the game, his experience far exceeds that of most people who have played in the same period.Not only did he play a lot, one dungeon after another, he also loved to go to the forum to read other people's dry goods posts, and learned a lot of tricks based on this, which saved him many times and successfully turned the tables.
The plot RPG dungeon is one of the games with the highest degree of immersion and the most diverse plot changes among many game dungeons.In the beginning, Zhang Chao couldn't figure out the way, and tried his best to search for clues and the truth. As a result, he repeatedly hit the muzzle of the gun and died halfway.Later, he gradually understood that instead of taking the risk of rushing forward, it is better to hide in the dark, wait for those stupid newcomers to be sent off one by one, and then follow behind to pick up the corpses.Relying on the acting skills he has learned through dungeons, and the fact that he will naturally understand the direction of the plot when he lives later, his overall score will never be low.
Zhang Chao is very satisfied with the identity of "Second Master Huang" this time. A wanderer who eats both men and women, and who is not clear with his sister-in-law, is the most suitable for making troubles everywhere.And he can fish in troubled waters. If he successfully reduces the number of players one by one, his ranking will naturally rise.
On the second day after Mrs. Sun was killed, Zhang Chao watched [Aunt Ye] and [Yinger] huddle together in the living room, and wished he could clap his hands and applaud.Although it is impossible to tell whether they are players or NPCs, according to his experience, the greater the disturbance, the higher the possibility of triggering death. As expected, [Aunt Ye] died that night.
In fact, Zhang Chao is also a bit regretful that it was not [Yinger] who died.Because this [Aunt Ye] is also related to another dark move he made.According to the setting, [Er Ye Huang] and [Aunt Ye] have a close relationship, and it is rumored that [Aunt Ye] took the initiative to seduce him.Then [Aunt Ye] has a little affection for [Second Master Huang], if this [Second Master Huang] suddenly turned around to hook up with others, how would she feel?
Once a woman is in love, she will always be irrational when facing scumbags and mistresses. This is Zhang Chao's own experience of cheating for many years.A man just needs to say that it's all my fault, that I can't stand the temptation, and the woman will want to tear the source of the temptation alive, no matter whether the other party is innocent or not.
At the right time, [Han Sheng] appeared.Zhang Chao's eyes lit up, and he immediately decided to borrow the knife from Aunt Ye to get rid of this player who is full of flaws, poor acting skills, and looks like a novice at first glance.It's a pity that the plan didn't go well, before he got online, [Aunt Ye] died first.
Now the Huang family must not stay there anymore, any fool knows that people will die one after another there.Fortunately, 【Second Master Huang】doesn't go home very often. Zhang Chao hides in the boat and goes to the street every day to inquire about the news and check the progress of the game.
During the day today, he was sitting in the Huang's tavern and heard the old Taoist swearing and singing, and he realized that this might be a hint from the game.He turned around and went to the academy to look up the Abi Hell he was talking about, and it really matched them one by one.According to this statement, sooner or later, the Huang family will encounter evil spirits demanding their lives, and he must prepare in advance.
So Zhang Chao reluctantly bought a bunch of [Five Emperors Copper Coins] from the game mall, with 5000 points, which means that [it can resist the death threat of any strange power and disordered god once].As the saying goes, there is only return if there is investment. This time the dungeon is [high difficulty time-limited dungeon], and the points are 10 times that of ordinary dungeons, which means that No.1 can get at least 10000 points.Quite worth it.
It was very windy at night by the river.Zhang Chao returned to his room and rested.Just as he was falling asleep listening to the sound of the river, a soft sound of footsteps reached his ears.The footsteps were unhurried and gradually came to his door.Zhang Chao suddenly woke up, here he comes!Holding the [Five Emperors Copper Coin] in his hand, he thought, I want to see what the hell it is!
This has to be exaggerated that Chao is indeed a game master, and he is very courageous. Li Ying would have been so scared that he would have jumped out of the window and fled.That thing has been lingering at the door, as if afraid of something and dare not come in, Zhang Chao waited for a long time, but he became confused.His heart trembled, and he felt that things were weird, but his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and he couldn't tear them open. His hands and feet were sore and his consciousness was blurred. He loosened his clenched hands little by little, and the [Five Emperors Copper Coin] fell to the ground with a snap. Get out of the rope and scatter in all directions.
problem occurs!The two looked at each other and quickened their pace.
Following the voice of the people to the meeting hall, the whole hall seemed to reappear from yesterday, but the people on the ground changed from Aunt Ye to dumb slaves.His whole body was tied up, the thick rope was stuck in his flesh, and a dirty cloth was stuffed in his mouth, and the cloth was stained with blood.He Rong stepped forward quickly, but was stopped by someone.

Hearing this, the servant at the side kicked the dumb slave hard in the stomach, and he shrank his body convulsively, revealing a large swath of whip marks and bloodstains on his back.He Rong shook off those who blocked him, walked to the center of the hall, and saluted Huang Rencai.
"Master Huang, this dumb slave has been working tirelessly and meticulously in our courtyard. I don't know what he has committed now to receive such a severe punishment?"
"Mr. Han, I advise you to meddle in your own business," Xu Bo said coldly. "This is a family matter of our Huang family. Why do you want to get involved as a scholar? It's not good to say it."
