Chapter 31 Bite me, you are arrogant
There was silence for a moment at the gate of the entire fence.
Just as they were staring at each other, the gate of the house next door rang, and the twin sister in red clothes came out. She heard the voice, turned around and said, "Aunt Li, did you just say you were coming to my house?"
The twin sister in green clothes also poked her head out, a sinister smile on her fair face: "I heard it, I heard it!"
At this moment, Aunt Li's expression was as brilliant as an overturned color palette.
Just when Jian Yue felt that things couldn't get any more chaotic.
"Why are you all standing at the door?" A powerful voice came from a distance.
Everyone turned around.
Wang Daniu, who came back with a hoe in his hand, appeared in everyone's sight. His eyes swept over everyone, and when he saw Jian Yue, he smiled and said, "Hey, Secretary Wang, do you regret it? Do you want to chase me to the crematorium now?"
Jian Yue: "...Where did you learn this word?"
Wang Daniu scratched his head and said, "That's what the movies that are often shown at the entrance of the village say!"
Jian Yue: "That's enough. Don't watch it anymore in the future."
Wang Daniu played the role of not understanding but respecting. He nodded and said, "Okay, Secretary Wang, what are you here for?"
Jian Yue looked at Li Tiezhu and Aunt Li again, but when he looked up, he met Li Tiezhu's angry gaze. He pointed at Jian Yue and said, "Wang Daniu, you would rather like this kind of pretty boy than be with me. You ate so many of my chickens, do you think he can kill chickens like me!?"
After Li Tiezhu finished speaking.
The twin sisters were not happy at first. Their faces changed and they rushed over and said, "Brother Tiezhu, we were wondering why you always come to our door. It turns out that you don't like my sister, but you like Brother Da Niu. Although my sister doesn't like you either, you can't steal Brother Da Niu. Last time I even got you a small stool to sit on. Explain it to us clearly!!"
When Aunt Li saw her son was surrounded, she stepped forward and said, "What are you doing? Tiezhu, don't be afraid of them. Be a good boy and behave yourself. Daniu, you ate so many chickens from my family, you must marry my Tiezhu!!"
Jian Yue: “…”
The audience was so shocked that they burst into laughter:
"Hahaha, it's a mess. Host, drink it while it's hot."
"I couldn't find out who stole the chicken back then!"
"Aunt Li also beat me up!"
"No, Tiezhu, you..."
"Even if we find out, Tiezhu and Aunt Li won't admit it. I always thought this mission couldn't be completed!"
"Pure useful information. After watching the live broadcast, I feel that my stay in Wanfu Village wasted!!"
In this chaotic scene, Jian Yue did not forget to go over and ask Aunt Li: "Can you give me the key to your warehouse?" Aunt Li was busy arguing and had no time to pay attention to him.
Jian Yue: "Brother Daniu...if you think about it carefully, I..."
Aunt Li stuffed the key into his hand randomly and said, "Here, here, here! Get out, get out, get out!!"
Jian Yue happily took the key and left. Behind the small courtyard of Aunt Li's house was a large warehouse. It was called a warehouse, but in fact it was just a row of small houses connected together. This place must be quite old, and the locks used were copper core locks that had been eliminated many years ago. Jian Yue walked to one of the doors and opened the key.
Open the door.
What greeted him was a heavy, dusty smell from an old house. He covered his lips and coughed twice, then continued walking inside.
The warehouse was filled with a mess of things.
Jian Yue searched for a long time and finally found the document bags in the rows of boxes on the innermost wooden shelf. He took them out and began to flip through them. The only sound in the entire warehouse was the sound of him turning pages.
Although many archaeological teams have come to Wanfu Village in recent years, it is actually much easier to find the items after knowing the approximate year. After searching for half an hour, Jian Yue finally stopped on a page.
The blurred words written on the yellowed paper read: "Registrant: Ji Feng, 25 years old, a member of the West Asian Archaeological Team, temporarily living in the Shen family."
The system panel popped up: "The main quest [The Secret of Wanfu Village] has increased its plot progress by 53%!"
Shen family?
Which one sinks?
Jian Yue's hand holding the file bag paused. Ji Feng's diary was found in the Shen family's warehouse. Ji Feng must have stayed there temporarily back then. Then why were some of his research results not in the Shen family?
storehouse……
Jian Yue's thoughts suddenly came to a head. Everything happened so suddenly that he could only take the diary, but the recorder! There was another recorder in the box!
There might be something in that tape recorder!!
Jian Yue could no longer sit still when he thought about this. He stood up and tried to go out, but he always felt something was wrong, as if he had overlooked something important.
I stood there thinking for a while.
Jian Yue went back to the file bag and looked through it, but no matter how hard he looked, he could not find any record of the archaeological team leader Shen Yue staying at a villager's house.
That's not right...
This is so wrong. Most members of the West Asian archaeological team have records of staying in villagers' homes. Why is Chen Yue not one of them?
unless……
Jian Yue's expression became more serious, and a guess inexplicably entered his mind. He slowly said: "Chen Yue was originally from Wanfu Village."
Think about it carefully.
When he and Tiantian were checking the archives for information about the Xiya archaeological team, they immediately looked for Ji Feng's name, and then discovered that Ji Feng was not in the archives, so they focused all their attention on Ji Feng. But was Shen Yue's name in that archive?
Jian Yue suddenly became uncertain.
He sat there, feeling that every time he found some clues, a bigger mystery would come to loom over him. It was like an invisible net that enveloped him, making it hard to breathe.
Until suddenly, the sound of a rumbling stomach was heard in the silent room.
Jian Yue slowly put down the file bag, sighed and said, "Forget it, let's eat first."
The audience in the live broadcast room were originally nervous with him:
"I knew it..."
"Nothing is more important than his eating."
"Butler Wang, you...hahaha!"
"Children are at the age of growing up!"
Jian Yue sighed. He thought about finding time to go to the archives again. He wondered if his old friend the female ghost was still there. He helped her find that Ji Feng all day. Could she pay him some salary? He could ask her next time.
When I came out of the warehouse, it was already afternoon outside.
The daytime in Wanfu Village is really peaceful. Of course, if the few people at the door can take a break, it can be considered a nuclear-free day.
Jian Yue slipped away through the path. Anyway, he was responsible for finding the chicken, so other things had nothing to do with him. When he walked towards the path, he saw the archaeological team and others coming towards him.
We were going to pass each other by.
Wen Yu suddenly said, "Butler Wang!"
Jian Yue paused and asked, "What's the matter?"
"You saw what happened last night, right?" Wen Yu walked over and said, "The plot is a bit confusing now. Do you know what this means?"
Jian Yue said: "This means that the plot has become messed up."
Wen Yu: "...I mean, the situation is very serious now. You know, the balance of the nightmare world needs rules, and the necessary plots must be there, otherwise the world will collapse, and there will be many unpredictable consequences. None of us can escape this copy!"
Jian Yue said: "Speak human language."
The corners of Wen Yu's mouth twitched. She endured it and finally said, "...I mean, you, you have to help me. We have to work together. I think the sudden abnormality of the male protagonist cannot be without reason. I want to ask you, are there any other women around the president?"
Jian Yue said righteously: "This is the young master's private matter. As a butler, I cannot disclose these things without permission. You are insulting my professional ethics!"
Wen Yu closed her eyes and stuffed two hundred yuan into Jian Yue's hand.
Jian Yue took it out in the sun to confirm its authenticity, then put it away and said, "But then again, in order to save the world and the plot, every player should unite. It is our responsibility to save the stability of this world and ensure the integrity of the plot."
Wen Yu: "..."
Other people are insensitive to anything, but you, Housekeeper Wang, are sensitive to anything! !
Jian Yue coughed lightly and said, "There is indeed a woman around the young master."
Wen Yu's eyes lit up. The money was not wasted. She knew that if the plot was quiet, someone must be making trouble! The problem came out immediately. She was a little annoyed: "Who is it?"
Jian Yue said: "Aunt Zhang."
Wen Yu: "..."
Jian Yue analyzed it carefully: "Aunt Zhang often cooks soup for the young master. She and Widow Li also share the young master's diet. I often see Aunt Zhang coming in and out of the young master's side."
Wen Yu endured it and said, "Besides her?"
"Then there are only Widow Li and the old lady." Jian Yue said, "There is no one else."
Wen Yu couldn't stand it: "Butler Wang, do you think the CEO's taste is so strong? He is the male protagonist, the overbearing CEO! The world will only give him someone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with him and is good enough!"
Jian Yue stared at Wen Yu for a moment, and Wen Yu's voice became smaller and smaller. She even asked with a guilty conscience, "Butler Wang, why are you looking at me?"
"He's not called the male lead, nor the overbearing boss. He has a name, Shen Yushu." Jian Yue stood in front of her and said calmly, "I have answered your questions. Is there anything else? I have to go back to eat. I'm very hungry."
Wen Yu: "..."
No, isn't that the point?!
Jian Yue had already turned and left.
Wen Yu looked at him with some resentment as he turned and left. Li Guang and others behind her came over and said, "Sister Wen, you are really something. You are the heroine, what do you have to be afraid of? You have the help of the plot and the system, no one can be your opponent. But I see that Butler Wang and the CEO have such a good relationship, do you think they have a chance..."
He is not just guessing!!
Even Scar Brother can be confessed to by Wang Daniu, this village must be too crazy!
"Impossible!" Wen Yu shook her head and said firmly: "The president is the male protagonist. His profile says that he is a straight man. Moreover, Jian Yue is such a greedy villain. How could a noble man like the president like a man? Do you think he is Brother Danniu?!"
Li Guang: “…”
No, Sister Wen, you even know about this?
*
Shen's house.
After Jian Yue came back, he went to the kitchen to eat something.
He went back to the study room again, and was told that the old lady was seriously ill today, and Shen Yushu was called over by the old lady. Jian Yue originally wanted to ask Shen Yushu about Shen Yue, but it seemed that he could only look at the family tree tomorrow. He went to the warehouse to find the tape recorder first. It was Ji Feng's tape recorder, and there was a tape in it, which was an important clue.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached the corridor of his room, he saw Tiantian and others waiting for him.
Tiantian's face turned pale with fear, and her boyfriend's face was not looking good either. Jian Yue asked in confusion: "What happened to you two?"
"Butler Wang!" Tiantian's voice trembled a little: "You know, when we went home at night these few days, we didn't turn on the lights, and then we found that..."
Jian Yue frowned and asked, "What did you find?"
Tiantian's eyes were a little red and she couldn't speak.
It was her boyfriend Wang Kun who sighed and said, "She found that some other members of our archaeological team would sleepwalk at night and crawl on the ground. If they were woken up, they would not remember anything."
Jian Yue recalled that the smell of lamp oil he smelled on the people in the archaeological team some time ago had become stronger, so he wondered if something was going to happen, but he didn't expect it to be true.
"Got it." Jian Yue said, "Just stay away from them."
Tiantian was about to cry: "Why is this happening, Butler Wang? Tell me, will we all become monsters like this in the future? Will we be like the villagers, normal during the day but ..."
She couldn't continue speaking, tears rolling down her face.
"I don't want to die." Tiantian choked up and said, "I just finished my graduate school, and my mother is still waiting for me to come home..."
Jian Yue sighed and said, "As long as the lights are not turned on, the speed of the abnormality should not be so fast. The most important thing is to complete the main task and solve the secrets here so that everyone can get out."
Wang Kun immediately said, "Butler Wang, you saved Tiantian and I's lives. If you need any help, just let me know!"
Jian Yue thought about it and wondered if the Shen family warehouse was safe or not. He thought it would be a good idea to take two more people with him. He said, "I need to go back to the warehouse to get the tape. It's very important."
Wang Kun quickly said, "We'll go with you!"
It's still daylight now, so there's no danger in going over there.
The three of them walked through the house and went straight to the outside of the warehouse. Shen Yushu had people tidy it up and it was much cleaner and tidier. It had also been searched by other players, but they probably didn't find anything useful, so they didn't take anything.
Jian Yue finally found the tape recorder in the red box. He put the tape in, but there was no response.
When Tiantian saw the recorder, she remembered it. She said, "Brother Dao also brought us here. Brother Dao and Sister Wen tried to play it, but they didn't succeed, so they gave up."
Wang Kun said, "Butler Wang, don't be discouraged. Brother Dao said that he can find the tools to repair this recorder in two days. Then we can come over and play it. You are a good person. I will help you plead with Brother Dao. He will definitely be willing to let you listen to it."
The audience in the live broadcast room sighed:
"Newcomers are just simple."
"It's bought with small favors."
"What can I use to save you?!"
"This tape recorder is not a good thing." "Whoever opens it first will attract ghosts!"
"Isn't this obviously making someone a scapegoat?!"
Jian Yue studied the recorder and smiled, "No need."
Wang Kun and Tiantian were confused.
Even the audience in the live broadcast room felt a little strange at times.
Jian Yue took out a box from the other side of the warehouse. It was full of tools. He sat on the ground and said, "Help me hold it."
Wang Kun came over to help immediately.
Tiantian is responsible for handing over the tools.
The two of them stared in amazement as Jian Yue began to dismantle the tape recorder with smooth movements, then checked the wires, oiled the loose parts, and replaced the rusty ones with new ones from the tool box. It was so shocking! !
Tiantian was surprised and asked, "Butler Wang, how come you can even repair this?"
Before, Butler Wang could also pick locks!!
Wang Kun was also curious and asked, "Butler Wang, aren't you a forensic doctor? Do forensic doctors need to learn this?"
Jian Yue said without even looking up, "My family used to work at a scrapyard. My grandparents who adopted me lived very frugally. At that time, old items like this were often sent to the scrapyard, and they were reluctant to throw them away. Although a new tape recorder only costs a few hundred yuan, you know that they sometimes sell a bag of bottles for less than ten yuan. I followed my grandparents and learned how to repair these old items, and I became proficient at it."
Tiantian said: "Then you became a forensic doctor, that's amazing!"
"I didn't work there for many years." Jian Yue said, "Then something happened, so I stopped working there and started working part-time."
Tiantian asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
Jian Yue patted the recorder and said, "Okay."
The two people were shocked and saw Jian Yue picked up the tape recorder, walked to the corner of the warehouse, plugged it in, and put the tape inside. After he adjusted the button, everyone could only hear a rustling sound coming from inside and nothing else. They were a little disappointed at first.
But I don't want to.
suddenly--
A man's voice rang out from the machine: "Hello... Hello... OK, it should be recorded. Well, today is August 19th, the weather is fine, and I lost my pen, so I use the machine as a diary. I am Ji Feng. Today's investigation in Wanfu Village went smoothly. The local villagers were very welcoming and even took Xiaoyue and I in for dinner."
This section is over.
Jane Yue moved on to the next section.
"Today is August 20th. The weather is cloudy. There were some accidents during our survey. One of the archaeologists is missing. Xiaoyue is very worried. She said that she is the team leader and needs to be responsible for everyone's safety. She wants to go up the mountain to look for him. I decided to go with her."
The tape made a rustling sound, casting a shadow over the entire warehouse.
This paragraph ends again.
Jian Yue switched to the next section.
"On August 21, the weather was cloudy. We searched all around the mountain but couldn't find him. Xiaoyue suggested going deeper into the mountain, but I thought it was a bit dangerous. She and I had a quarrel. I could see that she was really worried. We actually found the body of the team member at the foot of the mountain, but I didn't want to discourage Xiaoyue, so I decided to tell her in two days."
The tape ends here again.
But the hearts of several people in the warehouse were raised.
Jian Yue tried to tune to the next section.
The rustling sound of the tape in this section is more frequent and noisier, and the voice on the other end of the tape is more blurred and intermittent: "On August 22nd... I decided to go up the mountain. In fact, I was... but the... missing... archaeologist came back by himself. He said there was a miracle on the mountain... He found... longevity..."
The tape ends here.
No matter how much Jian Yue adjusted the tune, there was no next part.
The room was very quiet, and the three people all had solemn expressions. The content of this tape gave a lot, but there was no doubt that it was weird and made people feel a chill down their spine for no reason.
Tiantian asked, "Ji Feng means that the dead in their team have been resurrected?"
Wang Kun was so frightened that his face turned pale, and the two of them looked at Jian Yue.
Jian Yue pushed his glasses and said, "From a scientific point of view, this is impossible. I speculate that it is possible that they are twins, or the body is fake. Of course, it is also possible that Ji Feng is lying, because he cannot be sure that the body is the team member himself. This is possible to be forged. It requires a professional forensic autopsy to confirm. When you two are free, you can also read more about this knowledge. I recommend you to read it..."
Tiantian/Wang Kun: “…”
Enough, they said.
The three people were talking.
Wang Kun suddenly took a breath and said, "It's getting dark!"
I was so absorbed in listening to the tape that I didn’t even notice it was getting dark. In Wanfu Village, walking outside after dark is as dangerous as walking across the Amazon!!
Jian Yue put the machine back and said, "Let's go back."
Tiantian and Wang Kun looked at his calmness, which was no less than the light of science shining on the earth. They asked, "Butler Wang, aren't you afraid?"
Jian Yue said: "There is a curfew now, and we won't encounter any more villagers, so you can let go..."
The three men had just walked a few steps out of the warehouse when they saw a person crawling twistedly in the dark grass not far away. He was covered in a layer of bright red blood and was staring at them fiercely.
Look back again.
The door of the warehouse was also blocked by a villager standing upside down in a strange shape.
Tiantian trembled and said, "Butler Wang, didn't you say there was a curfew?"
Jian Yue glanced at his watch and said, "Oh, I forgot that the curfew is after 12 a.m. It's only 8 p.m. now, so it's indeed not the curfew yet."
Tiantian cried and said, "What should we do? Both of our cards are on cooldown and can't be used!"
Wang Kun was somewhat desperate, but seeing Jian Yue so calm, he thought there might be some other tricks, so he asked: "Butler Wang, what should we do now..."
Jian Yue slowly straightened his clothes. Under the eager gazes of the two people, he stretched his arms and legs and turned around so fast that an afterimage was left: "Run!!"
“…”
The backyard of the warehouse was very large, and the three men ran madly but could not run for long before they were blocked.
The villagers around were crawling slowly from all directions. The fog in the air was getting thicker and thicker, and the fog was filled with the smell of blood. The eyes of the surrounding villagers were red, and they were particularly excited as they stared at the meat in their mouths.
The audience in the live broadcast room also looked terrified:
"Ahhhh there's no getting away from this!"
"Damn it, my butler Wang! I haven't heard enough gossip yet!"
"Dead, dead, there's nothing we can do now."
"All three cards are on cooldown. I can almost see them reporting to the underworld."
"Butler Wang can't even use the village party secretary's handbook right now."
"You can't repeat a policy twice. This is really over."
The audience was talking about it, and the three people who were forced into the stable had no way to retreat.
Tiantian cried and said, "What should we do? What should we do? Steward Wang, we are going to be eaten!"
Wang Kun was also afraid and picked up the stick used to tie the horse and said, "At worst, I will fight them!"
Jian Yue said: "With so many people, you can't win."
"What should we do? Wait for death?" Wang Kun was a little desperate, his hands were shaking. "At this point, we have no other choice. I would try any other method, but this is a dead end, Steward Wang!!"
Jian Yue was silent for a moment and then said, "It's not that there is nothing, but are you sure you really want to use it?"
Tiantian was almost terrified. She cried and said, "I'm willing to try any method as long as I can survive. But Butler Wang, our cards are all cooled down. Now the villagers want to eat us. Is there any way to stop them? We have no way out!"
It seemed that the nearest villager was about to pounce on him.
She hasn't finished her words yet.
He saw Jian Yue pouring something on herself. Before she could say anything, a basin of unknown liquid fell from the sky and landed on her. Wang Kun turned his head in surprise, and the remaining half bucket of liquid poured on him.
The three men stood in the stable staring at each other.
The surrounding villagers were also dumbfounded. The villager who was closest to the fish and was about to bite it was stunned for a few seconds. His distorted face became even more distorted, and he turned around and ran ten meters away in one breath! !
After a few seconds of silence in the live broadcast room, a shocking amount of comments broke out:
“Ahhh help!”
"Butler Wang, what kind of genius are you?!"
“I’m dying of laughter!”
"Villager, you bite people because you are arrogant, and your next bite is horse urine. Your life and death are unpredictable, hahahahaha!"
