Chapter 18 Brother, you smell so good!
Jian Yue was extremely shocked. When he looked up, he met Mr. Shen's eyes. The president frowned slightly and said, "Butler Wang, why are you in a daze? Do you still want me to invite you over?"
He frowned slightly. Jian Yue was very familiar with this action. It was the precursor to salary deductions every time!
So, before Mr. Shen could speak again.
The system panel appeared: "Main quest: [Butler's Responsibility], all the lines in the plot have been completed, the quest is completed, and the card skill cooldown has been reset."
Very good!
Mission accomplished!
Jian Yue showed a look of joy, and before Shen Yushu could say anything else, he interrupted his spellcasting and ran over: "Master, this old slave is here!~"
Wen Yu was shocked by his lack of patience.
The audience in the live broadcast room also had fun:
"Hahahaha, this is shocking."
"You haven't seen him being more servile yet!"
"I've never seen anyone so flexible."
"I was searching for the fastest way to get through a dungeon, and ended up in this livestream room."
"Hahahaha, you found the real stuff!"
Everyone was talking about it. In fact, the audience in the live broadcast room were also taskers. They were on the verge of life and death every day, and they were under great mental pressure and lived a very depressing life. However, the style of Jian Yue's live broadcast room was different from other live broadcast rooms. Although he was not that strong, he was very optimistic and had a sense of extreme relaxation. That kind of power would unconsciously infect the people around him.
Gradually, almost everyone who enters the live broadcast room will unconsciously want to continue watching and will become happy.
System: "Two thousand three hundred viewers have voted for this live broadcast room. Congratulations to the host, who is about to enter the weekly rankings. Please keep up the good work!"
In the copy.
Jian Yue had no idea how lively his live broadcast room was.
Shen Yushu looked much better after seeing Jian Yue and Wen Yu separate for a while. He turned around and walked into the back house. Everyone followed him in. As soon as they entered, they could smell the scent of herbs.
The old lady was lying on the bed, and she indeed looked much weaker than before.
But the mental state is still good.
The old lady sat beside the bed and said, "Why are you here so late?"
Shen Yushu walked over to his mother's bedside and sat down and said, "The doctor came today and said that you are not in good condition. You coughed up blood again last night. I came to check on you."
The doctor was also a nutritionist hired by Shen Yushu from outside. No one knew how he sent the person to the village. Anyway, Jian Yue knew nothing about Shen Yushu's financial resources.
"It's all an old problem." The old lady sat on the bed and said calmly, "Look at you, you're worrying about nothing again. It's been so many years. If you don't keep doing this, if I die, I can go to the underworld to reunite with your father and brother."
Her expression was calm and cold.
Jian Yue's heart skipped a beat. He felt that this mother did not love her son.
Shen Yushu stood beside the bed, not too far away, and said, "It's my duty. You raised me since I was a child. These illnesses are all caused by overwork. Don't worry, mother. I will definitely find a way to save you."
The old lady coughed a few times while covering her face, and said, "This is fate. I have been walking in this old house these days, and I have recalled many past times. When my father and mother were still alive, our home was very lively, and there were always some people from other places who came to visit. After so many years, after we came back, our home is finally lively again..."
This news is important!
Outsiders, what outsiders?
Jian Yue was just thinking about it when he saw a flash of golden light passing by.
A golden card was triggered and took effect. It flew through the air and a line of words appeared:
【Eight Triggers】:
[Gossip: The latest news is that the owner of the Shen family's old house has a quirk of keeping personal belongings. They like to receive archaeological tourists from other places as guests at home, and then secretly leave their personal belongings! ]
[Skill cooldown time 12 hours]
As soon as this news came out, Jian Yue was shocked. Wow, the world is so big that there are all kinds of wonders!
He subconsciously looked at the old lady.
But I found that her complexion was normal.
What's going on? According to the side effects of his card, the old lady should have known about this gossip, but she didn't hear it. Is it because this gossip is a reward from the system, so there are no side effects?
It feels so good!
Jian Yue thought about it carefully. An archaeological team had visited the Shen family in the past. If the head of the Shen family had this kind of quirk, he must have secretly left behind a lot of things from the archaeological teams. These things might be helpful to him, but where were they placed...
Just thinking about it.
Aunt Zhang's voice came from behind, she said: "Master, it's time for the old lady to rest."
Shen Yushu nodded and said, "Then mother should go to bed early. I will come to see you tomorrow."
The old lady nodded.
After Shen Yushu left, Aunt Zhang helped the old lady to rest, and kept muttering: "Madam, you must rest more. God bless you, you will definitely get better..."
They were chatting.
Jian Yue felt as if he had grasped something.
He opened the system panel, and as expected, as soon as he slid down, he saw an unlimited-time task on the system panel that he had not completed.
"Trigger the character's hidden mission - [Zhang Ma's Secret]"
Mission content: Players who don’t want to be a good employee are not good housekeepers. Please compete with Aunt Zhang for the right to be a housekeeper.
Task time limit: unlimited
Mission Reward: Shen's Warehouse Key
Warehouse! Warehouse!!
How could he overlook such an important thing!
This was a task that was triggered on the first day he arrived in the village. He was too busy at the time and actually never paid attention to it. But now think about it, how could the system give the key to the house as a reward for no reason?
Unless... there's something in the warehouse that's related to the main storyline!!
Jian Yue suddenly had an epiphany. He said that there is absolutely no such thing as a task without reason in this world. The road is narrow, and if you think about it carefully, it turns out that the shortcut has been right beside you!
He must find a way to gain the stewardship of the house and get the key to the warehouse!
Jian Yue's mind was beating fast. He had just walked out of the backyard not far when he ran into a group of people from the archaeological team who were also returning.
Following the sound of the wind, he heard them say:
"It's so unlucky. The village chief has no lanterns to sell today."
“Who knows? Suddenly they won’t sell it anymore!”
"Luckily, other villagers gave us lanterns."
"How lucky."
"Yeah, otherwise I really don't know what to do at night..."
Jian Yue's attention was drawn back. He looked over and saw that the members of the archaeological team were returning with red lanterns. Moreover, this time the lanterns were not from the village chief's home, but from the villagers' homes.
Inexplicable.
Jian Yue just felt that something was not right.
He couldn't explain it, but there must be something wrong when something is abnormal.
The archaeologists ran over and greeted Wen Yu beside Jian Yue: "Sister Yu, Steward Wang, you are back!"
Wen Yu smiled and said, "Yes, did you borrow the lanterns?"
"We have borrowed some." The archaeologists said, "We have some lights for tonight. Where is Steward Wang? Do you need any? We have borrowed quite a few lights. We can give you one!"
As they got closer, they could smell a stronger smell of corpse oil lamps.
Jian Yue shook his head and said, "Thank you, but I don't need it for now."
The archaeological team did not insist.
Wen Yu glanced at Jian Yue for a few times, and she smiled and said, "Butler Wang, we are all players, why do you have to refuse? Tiantian's boyfriend told me this afternoon that you borrowed Tiantian's card skills to go out. In this case, why can't we join forces? You should have triggered the side quest of the ancestral hall. If you can get the key, we can cooperate."
Jian Yue asked: "How to cooperate?"
He looked very interested.
Wen Yu knew that he was not easy to fool, so she showed her sincerity and said with a smile: "If you can get the key to the ancestral hall, we will help you find the nightmare owner of this copy."
Jian Yue frowned, he didn't know what she was talking about.
Wen Yu seemed to understand that he didn't know, and explained: "When you enter the dungeon, the system will call you an intern. The real identity of all of us players is a nightmare resolver. You know that everyone living in every world has dreams, some people have good dreams, and some people have nightmares. If the nightmare energy in a place is not resolved and gradually spreads, it may affect the real world. Therefore, each dungeon we are in can be understood as a cage. In each cage, there will be a nightmare master. His resentment and persistence are the key to unlocking the dungeon."
Jian Yue asked: "What's the point of finding the nightmare's owner?"
"Of course it is very useful." Wen Yu said with a smile: "The nightmare master usually has the key main plot. Only by finding him can we make real progress."
Jian Yue asked: "Did you find it?"
Wen Yu's smile froze, and she said, "We've been looking for it. I said we can cooperate. If you can take out the key, we..."
"Then wait until you find it." Jian Yue said, "You are talking to me now with empty words, which is no different from empty promises. When I was working with Tiantian, she helped me with teleportation, and I also provided her with information. If you want to cooperate with me, show your sincerity first."
Wen Yu didn't expect Jian Yue to be so difficult to deal with, and her smile looked a little ugly.
When Jian Yue turned around to leave.
Wen Yu said from behind: "Are you so confident in yourself that you don't even need a lantern. The night is not that simple nowadays. Are you so confident that you can resist ghosts and NPCs by yourself?"
Jian Yue paused and looked back at Wen Yu. Just when Wen Yu thought he was persuaded, Jian Yue looked back and smiled and said, "If you really know me, you will know that I am not confident in myself."
Wen Yu was puzzled. Then, what was he confident in? Was he confident in his own cards?
The other side.
The night gradually deepened, and a thick fog was about to rise. In the fog, there were countless dangerous shadows swaying, and even a faint smell of blood was spreading, as if the curtain of danger had been opened.
A figure appeared at the door of the president's study. Jian Yue walked to the door and knocked: "Master."
Shen Yushu's voice came from inside: "Come in."
Seeing someone coming in, Shen Yushu put down the pen in his hand and asked, "What's the matter?"
You know, at this time of the day, Butler Wang would have already run away, but now he actually came here on his own initiative. Could it be that he saw someone else here during the day and thus developed a sense of crisis?
Jian Yue stood at the door, holding a notebook in his hand, and said in a dignified manner: "Master, I saw that Madam was not in good health today and you were so worried. As your personal butler, I am really worried. I will stay here tonight to copy Buddhist scriptures with you and pray for the old lady!"
As soon as the words fell.
The audience in the live broadcast room burst into laughter:
"I was wondering why the anchor became so tough."
"If you knew him, you would know..."
"He is not confident in himself, but in the president's ability to exorcise ghosts!"
“Hahaha that’s amazing!”
After listening to Jian Yue's words, Shen Yushu was silent for a moment, put down the pen and said, "Butler Wang, if you have nothing to do, go back and take a shower and go to bed."
He just thought that Jian Yue was joking. In Shen Yushu's world, there were no gods. He had a hard life as a teenager, fighting and struggling for everything, and no god had ever come to save him, so he didn't believe in ghosts or gods at all.
Jian Yue also felt that he had miscalculated. His boss had always believed in science and might not believe this at all. But he couldn't go back tonight. He couldn't turn on the lights, and there was no female ghost guarding the door for him. If he went back, he would die!
Never mind.
Jian Yue walked directly to Shen Yushu, took Shen Yushu's hand, and said sincerely: "Master, as the saying goes, it is better to believe it than not to believe it. To be honest, the old lady is your mother, and you are my boss. In my heart, I have long regarded her as my biological mother!"
Shen Yushu was shocked.
He didn't expect Butler Wang to be so bold!
He said that his mother is also his mother. Is this a confession?
The two people were very close to each other all of a sudden. Jian Yue had a very fresh bamboo-leaf fragrance on his body. His eyelashes were very long, fluttering like a small fan. His eyes were also bright, reflecting Shen Yushu's figure clearly.
Shen Yushu's whole body was a little stiff. He would not allow it rationally. He only regarded Wang Guanjia as his subordinate and brother! He was a straight man! !
But... man... he smells so good...
