Chapter 29 Resurrection

The group traveled at full speed and finally arrived at Ma Dayuan's grave before dawn.

"We've arrived." Elder Lü Zhang, who was passing on his skills, jumped off his horse and pulled Elder Bai Shijing, whose hands were bound, off the horse as well.

Bai Shijing landed on the ground, his gaze sweeping over the five characters "Tomb of Ma Dayuan" on the tombstone. His eyelids twitched, and he immediately lowered his eyes.

The elder who was passing on his skills noticed his expression and couldn't help but sneer.

However, considering their past friendship, he didn't say much before the truth was clear.

Kang Min was also helped down from the sedan chair.

She was quite composed.

Although his face was very pale, there was no fear in his eyes.

*********

Showing off his extraordinary encounter, he dismounted and stood before Ma Dayuan's grave.

Looking at the magnificent tomb, a question suddenly came to her mind.

"The focus list displays NPCs, players, and items based on distance. I don't know if Ma Dayuan's name will be displayed in the focus list before the grave is dug up."

Just do it if you have an idea.

Show off your amazing encounter by opening the focus list and switching to the NPC. To my surprise, I actually saw Ma Dayuan's name at the bottom.

Curious, she selected it, and the original position of healing and drifting was replaced by Wonderful Dance.

The words "Resurrection" were highlighted in large letters.

Showing off an extraordinary encounter made my eyes light up.

"This skill is invincible in the game levels!"

Without slowing down at all, he pressed down immediately.

"Ahhh, I was too fast!"

Showing off his extraordinary encounter, he exclaimed in surprise and quickly called the elders who were passing on their skills to start digging the grave.

"Come quick, come quick! Your Deputy Chief Ma has been resurrected. Quickly dig up his grave, or he'll die again."

*********

The Transmission Elder was startled upon hearing this.

He didn't even have time to first offer a sacrifice to Ma Dayuan and apologize; he grabbed the shovel from the disciple next to him and got to work.

People with martial arts skills are quick when digging graves. In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, they dug up Ma Dayuan's grave, revealing a coffin covered in mud.

The elder who was passing on his skills disregarded etiquette and directly opened the coffin with a single palm strike.

Everyone stepped forward to take a look.

A burly man with a thick beard opened his eyes, his face filled with terror. His fingers were gripping the sides of the coffin tightly, as if he had experienced something extremely painful and was using this method to alleviate the pain.

His face still had a rosy glow, which didn't seem like someone who had been dead for more than two months, but he was indeed a dead man!

Everyone was stunned, never expecting this outcome, and they couldn't help but look at each other in bewilderment.

The room fell silent.

Showing off his unusual encounter, he smiled sheepishly.

"Haha, oops, oops. I was too fast."

"The person who was just resurrected only had a sliver of health left, and there was no air inside, so he must have suffocated."

"But don't worry, I can revive him once. I made a mistake last time, so I won't charge you any fees. Just give me the remaining 300 taels of gold later."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was speechless.

If an ordinary doctor were this unreliable, he would surely be severely criticized by these江湖豪杰 (jianghu heroes).

But now, this reckless person was indeed a remarkable individual capable of reviving the dead and turning bones into the back of the earth; none of those present dared to offend her. After a brief moment of stunned silence, they immediately and politely forgave Xiu Chu's extraordinary encounter on behalf of Vice Chief Ma.

"It's already a great blessing that Miss Xiu has taken action. Vice Chief Ma will certainly not mind this small matter."

"Yes, yes, please don't take it to heart, Miss Xiu."

Having already completed the loading screen and awakened from his long slumber once again, Ma Dayuan was unaware of what had happened when he heard these two sentences.

"Ahhh!"

He suddenly sat up.

The feeling of suffocating to death was too painful. When Ma Dayuan was able to breathe fresh air again, he couldn't help but scream and then began to gasp for air.

"Don't be too reckless. You only have a sliver of health left. Don't kill yourself again. I won't be responsible if you die again; you'll have to pay me again before I'll do anything."

A clear, crisp female voice rang in my ears.

Before Ma Dayuan could speak, Elder Lü Zhang, who was about to pull him up, jumped down happily. He paused and carefully helped him up from the coffin.

"Isn't I dead?"

Ma Dayuan couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"You are indeed dead, leaving behind a mess." Elder Lü Zhang's bold voice rang out, "But you were lucky and met an extraordinary person. That is, the girl who just spoke."

"Our leader Qiao personally begged her, offering a reward of 500 gold coins to bring you back to life."

Ma Dayuan's mind was in a daze, and he didn't understand what the Transmission Elder was saying for a moment.

His gaze swept over everyone present, and when he saw Bai Shijing and Kang Min tied up to the side, his eyes immediately turned red. He rushed over and kicked Bai Shijing hard.

"You two adulterers dare to show your faces before me?"

I'll kill you all!

He grabbed the agitated Deputy Chief Ma, and without him saying a word, everyone present understood what he meant from those few words.

The elder who was passing on his skills earnestly advised, "Don't get agitated. Miss Xiu said you are still very weak. What if you get agitated and something bad happens again?"

"Anyway, they've already been caught. You should focus on recovering first, and you'll have your own way of dealing with them later."

As for Kang Min, I wonder where she developed such a resilient character.

With Ma Dayuan's resurrection, Elder Bai Shijing's face turned almost deathly pale, while Kang Min's face regained some color and her expression calmed down considerably.

She gave a mocking smile and spoke maliciously.

"If you, this good-for-nothing, won't listen to me, then I'll naturally find another lover who will."

As she spoke, she glanced at Bai Shijing: "I just didn't expect this lover to be such a coward. He said all sorts of nice things when he was coaxing me, but after it was all over, he turned his back on me. Naturally, I have to find a way to get hold of his weakness."

"It just so happens that you're useless now, so I'll lure you into discovering our affair and force him to kill you. Then I'll naturally have a way to control him."

These words not only enraged Ma Dayuan, but also made all the Beggars' Sect disciples present feel that she was vicious.

"You, you, you poisonous woman!"

Ma Dayuan spoke with resentment.

"So what if she's a poisonous woman?" Kang Min's face showed a hint of smugness: "No matter how much she calls me a poisonous woman, she's still being manipulated by me."

He then spoke fiercely, "If it weren't for this unexpected turn of events, I would have killed you all long ago and achieved my goal!"

"You wicked woman!"

Hearing that she still intended to kill, Ma Dayuan could no longer restrain himself. He used the last bit of his inner strength to step forward and snapped Kang Min's throat.

This woman, who stirred up trouble and nearly caused internal strife within the Beggars' Sect, died at the hands of Ma Dayuan's signature move, the throat-locking grappling technique.

Just like Ma Dayuan's previous death, it can be considered another form of retribution for evil.

After dealing with Kang Min, Ma Dayuan, panting heavily, looked at Bai Shijing, whose face was deathly pale.

Fearing that he might get too excited and actually die of anger as Xiu had said about his extraordinary encounter, the Transmission Elder quickly knocked Bai Shijing unconscious and then began to patiently persuade him.

"Bai Shijing is the gang's law enforcement elder, and he has committed a serious offense against the gang. We cannot carry out the execution privately."

"Why don't we take him back to headquarters first, and you can take the opportunity to recuperate? Then we can put him to trial in front of the gang leader and elders, how about that?"

Although he didn't want others to know that he had been cuckolded, the Transmission Elder's words made sense. So Ma Dayuan suppressed his murderous intent towards Bai Shijing and agreed to Lü Zhang's plan.

Seeing that Ma Dayuan had been calmed down, the matter was considered to be over. Elder Chuan Gong couldn't help but think of another person who had played a key role.

"What are your plans next, Miss Xiu? Would you like to come with us to the Beggars' Sect headquarters?"

"No," Xiu Chuqi shook his head, "I plan to travel the world on my own."

He stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the tail gold."

"Huh? Oh, oh, oh."

The elder who was passing on his skills gave an awkward smile. He took out the gold notes and token that the elder in charge of the sect's finances had specifically given him.

"Please accept this, young lady."

"However, the young lady's great kindness cannot be repaid by a mere five hundred taels of gold. If the young lady has any requests in the future, she can take this item directly to any branch of the Beggars' Sect."

He handed a token to Xiu Chu, who had just experienced the adventure: "As long as it does not violate the greater good or endanger the safety of the Beggars' Sect, the disciples of the helm will do their utmost to complete it."

"Well, I do need your help with something."

"What is it? Please enlighten me, Miss Xiu!"

The elder who was transmitting the skills immediately perked up. How could he let such a good opportunity to build connections slip by?

"I just need your help to spread the word that I will be resurrected throughout the martial arts world, and also to disseminate my pricing information. I'm planning to expand my business."

"Don't worry, Miss Xiu. The Beggars' Sect has many disciples and will surely spread this message to every corner of the martial world."

*********

After watching the Beggars' Sect members leave, Xiuchu sat on the fallen tombstone and took out the handkerchief that Kang Min had given her from her backpack.

System: "This is a handkerchief used to convey information."

Showing off her extraordinary encounter, she examined the handkerchief closely and discovered a line of small words written in blood on the back.

"After I die, please wait patiently until no one is around to resurrect me. After I am resurrected, I am willing to pay Miss Xiu a thousand taels of gold."

"No wonder she repeatedly told me to look at the handkerchief carefully; it turns out there was a line of small writing hidden inside."

"So many words written on such a small handkerchief, and in blood no less! I don't know how Kang Min did it?"

Showing off an unexpected encounter piqued my curiosity.

She was sitting here for two reasons: one, to wait for the Beggars' Sect members to leave, and two, to consider whether or not to revive Kang Min.

"Judging from the plot, she doesn't seem to be a good person."

"But this is a game! Whether the NPCs are good or bad has nothing to do with you."

Two little figures are fighting in my mind.

"Does playing games mean you don't need morality? Bad people are beyond redemption!"

"You've already decided on the persona of a greedy, immortal doctor for this level, are you just going to abandon that persona because the other side is a bad guy?"

Neither of the two villains could convince the other.

Who cares about the money of bad people?

"You may not care, but I do. That's a thousand gold pieces! These days, even a hero in the Taiji Palace might not have a thousand gold pieces!"

Showing off his extraordinary encounter, he suddenly stood up.

Such a despicable person's words are too hateful.

"How can someone turn down a quest reward? That's not something a mature player should do."

Showing off his extraordinary encounter convinced him. He walked to Kang Min's body.

"Long ago, I was just bones, but now I am made of flesh again; I have already lain in the Yellow Springs, but now I can see the heavens again."

The skill announcement has ended.

Kang Min, who was on the ground, opened her eyes.
