Chapter 110
Shen Jiao stayed as far away from the cold underground river as possible, stepping on the stones, with no intention of jumping in and going with the flow.
That's too dangerous.
The Qishui River, whose name is no longer applicable, is as black as ink and no one can see what is underneath. It is a tributary of the Chang River, but it has none of the clear water characteristic of the Chang River. Perhaps it is really too deep.
And deep water often means unpredictable dangers.
Same here.
Shen Jiao didn't want to be bitten by any strange creature. Besides, the water must be very cold, and her spiritual power couldn't sustain it for too long. Don't let her freeze to death here again.
Shen Jiao rubbed his arms, and white mist could be seen when he exhaled.
"How deep is it here?" she murmured. "It's already March and it's still so cold."
A piece of moss said angrily, "Who knows?"
No one asked you!
Shen Jiao almost blurted out.
She really had to get out quickly, because if she waited any longer she would have to talk to these things, and it would not be fun to go crazy at this time.
The plants in her hysteria can sometimes be deceiving.
Especially those poisonous ones, they like to trick her into eating them.
Let’s not talk about this for now.
Let’s talk about Xue Shun.
He was not put into a coffin, but was locked in a tomb. When he woke up slowly, he was accompanied by Xue Lang, Xue Qi, Xue Jiu, Xue Shiyi, Xue Shiwu and Xue Shiliu.
He didn't have to think about anything, just follow them.
If he encountered any poisonous arrows, people like Rolling Stone would help him. Unfortunately, there were too many traps here, and he got separated from these people without noticing.
Only Xue Lang was left by his side.
He smiled at him in the dim light, revealing a mouthful of snow-white, cold teeth: "Don't be afraid, Sixth Brother will protect you."
Xue Lang put his big hands around his shoulders and rubbed them twice.
Xue Shun dug his nails into his palms, suppressing his nausea and disgust, and revealed a timid expression of gratitude: "I'm relying entirely on Sixth Brother."
The hand moved to his waist.
Xue Lang said meaningfully: "Why be so polite? I am the elder brother, and it is my duty to take care of my younger brother."
He held Xue Shun's waist and led him towards him, then sighed, "Xiao Shiqi, you are too thin. Your waist can be held in one hand."
"If you don't know, you might think you are a delicate and weak girl."
The hot air exhaled by Xue Lang sprayed on Xue Shun's ear. He leaned very close and spoke teasingly.
Xue Shun shuddered, lowered his head, and said silently, "Sixth brother, please stop joking. I don't know where the other brothers have gone, and the guards and maids are also missing. The most urgent thing is to find them as soon as possible and find a way to escape."
"Why rush? Old Seven and the others are all very smart. If they can't find us, they will leave on their own. If they meet any guards or maids, they will also save them. Let's just take our time."
His eyes were fixed on Xue Shun.
You can feel it even without looking up.
That was definitely not the look an older brother gives his younger brother.
It's more like a pimp looking at a prostitute in a brothel.
Xue Shun actually admired him a little. He was still thinking about the things in his crotch at a time like this. He didn't act like a human being at all, but more like a beast.
But he was completely helpless. After much deliberation, he finally grabbed Xue Lang's belt and said, "Seventh Brother and the others will rescue her if they meet her. But what if they don't... I have a girl. Please... Sixth Brother, accompany me to look for her."
Xue Shun bit his lip, his eyes pleading.
Xue Lang raised his eyebrows happily: [This kid is quite sensible.]
system:……
[He's already started to hate you. Give up on this strategy target. The chances of success are too small.]
"I know, but wouldn't this be fun? If I do that to him right here... would he dare to tell anyone? Or maybe I should just be done with him and then kill him, wouldn't that be okay?"
Xue Lang's blood was almost boiling.
The system is silent.
[It really is feasible, right?] Xue Lang understood.
System: [Your fame, influence, and contribution value have far exceeded the target (at this time), but we still don't recommend you do this, unless...]
[Unless what? Tell me, how did you learn to keep things in suspense?]
System: [Unless you can replace it.]
Xue Lang didn't quite understand: "What do you mean? You want me to kill him and then wear his body?"
But Xue Lang refused to do that. What was the difference between becoming Xue Shun and becoming a waste? He did feel that Xue Shun's opportunity was about to come, but what if it was just his illusion?
The system explained: "There are many ways to replace him. Your suggestion counts, but the system won't offer any assistance. If you only want to reach the Nascent Soul stage before attempting to possess him, you'll have to wait a long time, and success is unlikely. Currently, the most reliable method is to seize his opportunity. If you can become the Lord of the Dayu She, then his existence won't matter so much."
[There's such a good thing,] Xue Lang instantly became excited, [Why didn't you tell me earlier?]
The system was silent for a moment before saying: [Because it is immoral.
Friendly reminder: seizing opportunities is not easy, the success rate is unpredictable, and the danger is also unpredictable. We strongly recommend that players take a steady approach, rely on their own efforts to improve their strength, and then take over.
This is quite interesting.
Xue Lang had always believed that this system wanted players to be lickspittles for their targets, but after hearing this, he felt that the system didn't seem to care much about the lives of these targets. It just wanted to choose the right time... before taking action...
Xue Lang: [What are the benefits of doing this?]
You will receive a full integration score. You no longer need to rely on points to survive, and the world consciousness will no longer reject you. In other words, you will become the real Xue Lang, enjoying your second life to the fullest. The opportunities and adventures he has will become yours. Even the Upper Spiritual Root (trial version) awarded by the system will become permanent.
Xue Lang was not gifted from the beginning.
When he drew the identity, he only got this one, and the others... were nothing.
From the first day of his birth, he had to find ways to act cute and obedient in order to gain favor and get reward points to stay alive.
At that time, Luo Wendi and Xue Wuliang were still normal people. They liked their son very much and their favorability increased rapidly, so he quickly accumulated a certain amount of points. Thinking that wealth and honor can be achieved through risk, he participated in a lottery and was able to transform from an ordinary person into a person with superior spiritual roots.
But it was just a trial version... Once it expired, he would fall from a high spiritual root to a low spiritual root, and might even become an ordinary person again...
Xue Lang was originally very worried. After all, the lottery was getting more expensive each time, and he never won anything, so he was a little reluctant.
I never thought there would be such a good thing. [You really should have told me earlier, so I could prepare earlier...] Xue Lang's murderous intent was aroused, and he asked curiously, [Come to think of it, you let players capture these people, is that also to replace them?]
[Yes.] This time the system answered decisively.
Xue Lang was very dissatisfied and scolded it: "Taking off your pants to fart, what a waste of time."
