Chapter 44: The Secret of Linhu Village 15

"My name is...Yamaru!"

Su Qingyun suddenly swung the black rattan stick in her hand and hit the man on the head.

The man dodged and teleported.

"King Yama?" The man tilted his head, savoring the name, and then he smiled again.

This time his smile was no longer as gentle as spring breeze, but rather strange.

"Why did you tell me a fake name?" The man teleported to Su Qingyun's side again. "Don't I look good? Don't you like it?"

He stretched out his hand and pressed the tree next to Su Qingyun, giving Su Qingyun a tree bang.

This was Su Qingyun's favorite love story when she was a girl. A tall boy pushed the girl who was just beginning to fall in love into an empty corner.

But Su Qingyun no longer likes to fantasize.

She raised the black stick in her hand again, and the next second her wrist was held down by the other party, lifted up, and pressed against the tree trunk.

The back of Su Qingyun's hand felt the rough texture of the tree trunk, while between her fingers was the man's delicate skin.

Warm and smooth.

"You, are not behaving well." The man tilted his head again, his beautiful eyes like stars in the dark night.

He moved closer to Su Qingyun, and Su Qingyun could even smell the faint fragrance on him.

It’s still Su Qingyun’s favorite peach flavor.

What the hell is this thing? Su Qingyun wondered why there was no strange aura around him, and only warmth and comfort could be sensed.

But he was definitely weird.

"Who are you?" Su Qingyun asked anyway when resistance was futile.

"It's me!" The man moved closer to Su Qingyun, his pleasant voice surrounding her ears. He said, "I am your most loyal servant, your only love, your sweetheart."

"Do you like me?" he asked.

Su Qingyun, "..." She was unable to think. All she smelled was the scent of peaches, and the man's voice was extremely seductive, making her bones numb.

"Do you like me?" the man asked again.

Su Qingyun gritted her teeth and fiercely squeezed out the word "get out".

"You are so naughty." The man's fingers began to play with Su Qingyun's hair, then combed it behind her ear. He pinched Su Qingyun's earlobe with two fingers and moved closer.

He leaned over and raised his head slightly, as if preparing to kiss Su Qingyun.

Su Qingyun's eyes widened. She wanted to hide but she had no strength left.

I could only watch him get closer and closer.

When his lips were about to touch Su Qingyun's lips, a hand covered Su Qingyun's face.

Then, the hand pinched Su Qingyun's face and took her away, very domineeringly, without any mercy.

Su Qingyun felt as if her entire neck was stretched. She wanted to save herself, but the other party suddenly loosened his grip and she fell to the ground.

When Su Qingyun got up, there was only a fire beside her, and she was sitting next to the fire with the You County Chronicles in her hand.

"Are you sleepy?" Xu Xinghe's voice came. He stood beside the fire, bent down, picked up a dead branch and threw it into the fire that was about to burn out, then sat down opposite Su Qingyun.

Su Qingyun, "..." Was she dreaming just now?

No, it hadn't, her face still hurt.

Xu Xinghe, "Go to sleep." He gestured towards the tent.

Su Qingyun looked at the time. It was 2:30 in the morning, half an hour before the shift change, but four hours before she went to collect firewood.

If she wasn't dreaming, then who was manipulating time?

Xu Xinghe? Or that strangely beautiful guy?

"What are you thinking about so intently? I told you to go to sleep, but you refused to sleep?" Xu Xinghe added some more dead branches to the fire.

The fire grew bigger, and the burning dead branches made crackling sounds.

Su Qingyun handed over the You County Annals and said, "I just took a closer look. It says that the lake in Linhu Village was once called the Skeleton Swamp. There's a very strange fish in it that glows."

"Really? Let me take a look." Xu Xinghe took the county annals and flipped through them by the light of the fire.

Su Qingyun tilted her head and looked at him from top to bottom.

Finally she walked over to him, squatted down, and looked at him closely.

Xu Xinghe noticed her abnormality but didn't move much. He still sat as steady as a rock, just glancing at her sideways.

Su Qingyun lay on his knees, stretched her neck and sniffed him, then stood up and left.

She smelled a faint scent of peach on him.

So, what she had just done was not a dream. The person who pinched her face should be Xu Xinghe, and that strange man should have been killed by Xu Xinghe just like the old woman.

Xu Xinghe, such a scary existence, fortunately, he is a teammate.

Su Qingyun crawled into the tent and fell asleep peacefully.

The next day, the sun was shining again.

When Su Qingyun got up, Xu Xinghe was stirring the soup in a small pot with a small spoon.

The air is filled with the rich aroma of mushrooms.

"What are you cooking?" Su Qingyun asked.

"Mushroom soup, from the forest. The soup is ready, but there is no seasoning." Xu Xinghe looked at Su Qingyun, and the meaning of his words was self-evident.

Su Qingyun took out his mobile phone and placed an order for a bag of salt. After clicking OK, he turned off his phone.

The battery is exhausted.

Su Qingyun handed the salt to Xu Xinghe and told him the unfortunate news.

"Looks like we'll have to live on this bag of salt." He suddenly asked, "Where did you buy this phone?"

"I don't know, a... friend gave it to me." Su Qingyun didn't want to say that Ye Jian was a friend, but she couldn't find any other words to describe him except friend.

You can't say they are enemies.

"Your friend treats you well. This phone is priced at over 10,000 ghost coins in the system. I heard it does have some new features, but this is the first time I've seen someone who can directly purchase something like you."

Xu Xinghe glanced at Su Qingyun and said, "Besides, there is no internet in this dungeon."

Su Qingyun had thought about this problem before. She thought that the new mobile phone had upgraded its system, so it did not need to follow the rules of reality.

But if you think about it carefully, the previous generation of machines required specific scenarios to use. In addition to being able to only be used in copies with a network, the functions would also vary depending on the age of the copy.

This is not the smart age, and even if you have a smart phone you cannot use its smart functions.

"You mean this phone of mine is a special product?" Su Qingyun looked at the phone in his hand. Its pure metal appearance was not stunning at first glance, but it felt very heavy in his hand.

As she was watching, she suddenly noticed that her phone was charging.

Charging? Who is charging it?

Leaf cutting!

Su Qingyun quickly turned on the screen and entered the dialog box with Ye Jian.

[Are you spying on me?]

It was quiet on the other side.

Su Qingyun glanced at the signal bar and saw no network.

She quickly opened the Yikaoda APP, and five words popped up: Please check the network.

Now you follow the rules with her again?

Su Qingyun put her phone into her bag and smiled at Xu Xinghe, "Then let's talk about your ring now."
