"Are you talking about yourselves..."

Lin Yan glared at the two of them unhappily, but still quickly followed.

The wine cellar door is only a few meters away from the guard room, but this short distance is a tight net.

Under the horrified gazes of the two, one big and one small, they only took one step closer and witnessed the activation of six or seven traps.

If I had reacted a little slower, I would have been packed up and sent to the bed in the guard room.

After being silent for a long time, Xigua couldn't help but pat Yongyi's waist.

"You'd better be more careful next time. Right now, besides Marisa, you're the most dangerous person."

"Aren't you too?"

"That's different. In the boss's eyes, you probably have the biggest appetite. You're a perfect match for the torture instruments here."

"..."

Yongyi wanted to refute something, but after comparing the gap between the two, cold sweat gradually slid down his forehead.

As expected, Marisa still has to feed the boss by sacrificing herself to feed the tiger!

"You two should calm down a bit, I heard everything clearly."

Lin Yan knocked on the heads of the two things with a dark face.

After pushing them aside, he shut down the mechanism according to the instructions.

As Lin Yan pressed his hand on the wall beside him, dense spell patterns appeared in an instant, covering the entire space like a prison.

As if to confirm the identity of the visitor, an invisible wave swept across, and several blood-red rays of light appeared in front of everyone like a spider web.

However, the light only lasted for a moment before it went out, as if all defenses had been completely removed.

"Gudu~"

The big and the small swallowed their saliva in frustration and subconsciously shrank behind Lin Yan.

"Let's go, it's all demolished now."

After Lin Yan greeted him, he walked forward and pushed open the heavy door.

A dull mechanical sound came faintly from inside the door. The moment it opened, an extremely rich aroma of wine suddenly surged like a wave.

As Xigua and Yongyi bathed in it, their rationality almost evaporated.

If it weren't for the deterrent effects of the mechanisms and torture instruments in the guard room, they would have probably rushed in and wreaked havoc.

As the bright lights gradually illuminated the extremely spacious wine cellar, the wine racks that almost reached the ceiling were filled with all kinds of wines provided by the sage.

The deeper you go, the more precious the wine becomes.

The "Drunken Life and Dream of Death" was placed on the last shelf, with a few empty spaces left on the side, waiting to be unlocked in the future.

Oh wow, another bottle was sent.

Lin Yan's eyes lit up. He could then enjoy one bottle and use the other for fishing.

Just when the two of them, one big and one small, were about to wander off in a daze, he immediately pulled them back—

"Okay, we've seen enough, it's time to go back."

"Leave now?!"

"Boss, now that we're here, aren't you going to open a hundred or eighty jars?"

Xigua and Yongyi immediately showed expressions of disbelief.

With so many fine wines in front of you, how could you resist the temptation?!

"What are you thinking about? We still have a lot of things to prepare for the banquet tonight. How can we just drink here? You two have to help too. Drink less."

Lin Yan symbolically stuffed two bottles of wine into their arms, and then dragged the two people who were extremely reluctant to leave out.

By the moment the door was closed again, the two drunkards were so reluctant that tears were about to burst out of their mouths.

"Boss, I strongly apply to be the caretaker here. I will work diligently and conscientiously, even if it means working a full day!"

Xigua yelled with eager eyes, hugging Lin Yan's arm tightly.

It would be very difficult if I didn’t guard such an important treasure house all night long!

Yongyi on the side was also trying his best to agree, and his eyes had never left the door, as if his soul remained inside.

"Forget about it. If I keep you here, you'll just end up stealing from me. You're not even as reliable as Marisa."

"Marisa? If she comes to guard the door, this place will really become a brothel!"

"Boss, you are still young, you can't let yourself fall into depravity like this!"

"That's right, you should spend your young life on a more exciting chapter in life, instead of spending day and night in this constant battle with Marisa."

“This is a blasphemy against life!”

"We're different. We're ghosts, and we have plenty of time to waste. Even if we make a small sacrifice and stay here, it's nothing."

The two of them advised earnestly, and the abacus beads almost broke Lin Yan's face.

However, he was not moved at all, and dragged the two struggling people out of the warehouse step by step.

Hearing Xigua and Yongyi's desperate cries and howls, everyone in the living room was stunned.

I've only been away for a while, what happened to these two things?

Got poked?

As the sound got closer, Patch became nervous and quickly removed the magic that was used to secretly search the cabinet.

What a pity! If Lin Yan and the others had come a little later, I would have been able to get Zui Sheng Meng Si!

Patchouli gritted her teeth and could only suppress her restless heart temporarily, chewing her food as if nothing had happened.

Not only did she have to leave Lin Yan alone, she also had to keep an eye on Reimu and Yakumo Yukari, as each of them was a very dangerous opponent.

Even if they didn't get the wine, it would be fine, but if I failed, I would be exposed!

"Pachi, why are you so absent-minded the whole time? Is there something bothering you?"

Just then, a questioning voice floated over from the side, which scared Patch so much that she shuddered.

Turning to look at Sakuya's puzzled face, Patch hesitated for a moment before tentatively asking—

"Sakuya, can you please do me a favor?"

"What's the deal?"

"Can you secretly take the boss's life of drunkenness and dreaming..."

"Impossible, I can't do it, goodbye!"

"Sakuya, you can stop time, why don't you try it?"

After dinner, while Sakuya was washing the dishes, Patchouli continued to ask questions.

Wouldn’t it be a waste if such an excellent ability is not used at this time?

Although there is a little bit of risk, the boss will definitely not pursue it too much considering that it is a first offense!

Upon hearing this, Sakuya rolled his eyes at her unhappily. He knew clearly what would happen to those who dared to cause trouble in the grocery store.

He actually tried to deceive me at this time. He deserves death!

"Aren't your various magics quite powerful? Why don't you try them?"

"Well, I've been using up a lot of my magic power these past two days, and I haven't recovered yet."

Patchouli mumbled hesitantly.

After drinking the potion, although the magic power reserves increased significantly, the recovery efficiency was also greatly suppressed.

After finishing the ritual for Marisa and myself yesterday, my magic power has only recovered one-fifth.

In addition, I just secretly searched for Zui Sheng Meng Si and consumed some of it, and now it is almost empty again.

She didn't dare to suddenly use up all her magic power at this moment. If Lin Yan found out something, his resistance might not be as fierce as Marisa's!

However, Sakuya remained unmoved and refused resolutely.

"No, I don't want to faint like the young lady and the others."

Lin Yan's ability is very strange. Once you are hit by him, it is like you have already stepped half a foot into the abyss.

There are only zero and countless times of falling, and there will be no chance for me to be caught!

Seeing Sakuya being so heartless, Patch pursed her lips and could only leave the kitchen mumbling.

Damn it, once I get through this stage and the reckoning begins, don’t even think about running away!

Looking at Lin Yan who was walking towards the bathroom with a mop, she rubbed her slightly hot belly a little unnaturally.

At this point, I can only bite the bullet and do it myself!

Just as she was moving quietly towards the location of the bronze gift box, two other figures also moved quietly towards her.

The moment their eyes met, the expressions of the three of them became a little strange.

"Patch, why are you getting involved?"

"Don't talk nonsense, I just happened to pass by while taking a walk after dinner."

"What about you, Reimu?"

"I'm helping with the cleaning."

"How can you say such nonsense?"

Looking at the two people talking nonsense, Marisa's eyelids couldn't stop twitching.

I just wanted to give it a try, why are there so many opponents!

"I think it's not a good idea to start a fight at this time. Let's resolve it peacefully."

"Look, I'm the first employee of the grocery store after all, and I've suffered so much this time, so just let me take over first."

"Next time the boss orders more wine, if you guys want help, I'll definitely be the first one to help."

Marisa tried to dissuade them sincerely, saying that she was already in such a miserable state, and you still wanted to rob her. Don’t you feel guilty?

However, Reimu sneered when she heard this.

"Anyway, you've been trained by the boss for pretty much the entire time. If you cooperate a little and try to persuade him, your chances of getting it will be much higher than ours."

"Why not give this opportunity to someone in need first? It's not easy to support a family."

"If it really doesn't work out, I can withdraw if you can afford the price Zi offers."

Marisa's pretty face froze for a moment. The price that could make Reimu risk her life for something like that was not something that could be paid with just a little pocket money.

As for cooperating with Lin Yan?

That's even more impossible. I'm still in the stage of fighting to the death.

Just the current situation has made me almost unable to get out of bed because of what he is doing. If I cooperate a little more, that would be disastrous!

Seeing that Reimu's explanation was not convincing, she could only look towards Patch with eager eyes.

But when he met Patchouli's cold eyes filled with resentment, he was suddenly frightened and shuddered.

I didn't seem to have offended her, so why is she so resentful?

"This stalemate isn't going to work. Why don't we try another approach... Patchy! Why are your hands flashing?"

Looking at the magical light flashing in Patchouli's hand, Marisa's eyes suddenly became sharp.

We were discussing a solution, and you sneaked off?!

Patchouli's pretty face froze instantly after being locked in her gaze, and she quickly explained -

"I'm just checking to see if the stuff is still there. After all, we're not the only ones out there trying to get high and live a life of luxury."

"But sad news, someone took it away before us."

As she opened the drawer with a gloomy face, the bronze gift box inside was surprisingly gone!
