Chapter 55: The Secret of Linhu Village 26
"Su-Da-Qiang?" The man from the Republic of China repeated the name Su Qingyun had temporarily given him, as if he was thinking.
Su Qingyun wondered, could it be that she had another name belonging to her in this Republic of China copy? Was this a copy or a script-killing game?
But soon, the man from the Republic of China stopped dwelling on this matter. He raised his hand and invited Xu Xinghe into the main hall.
As they walked towards the main hall, the man complimented Xu Xinghe, "I've heard of Mr. Xu's great name since Nanyang. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary. His temperament is noble and unique."
Su Qingyun followed Xu Xinghe closely.
As for Xu Xinghe, no matter what the men in the Republic of China said, he would just smile and at most adjust his glasses. He really had a noble and elegant temperament.
"Please take a seat, Mr. Xu." The man gestured to the person above him.
Xu Xinghe did not refuse and sat down steadily.
Su Qingyun believed that she was a follower so she did not sit down. Instead, she stood behind Xu Xinghe like what was shown on TV.
"Su..." The Republican man thought for a moment, as if searching for Su Qingyun's name, but to no avail, he said, "Miss Su, please take a seat too."
Well, she is a lady?
Su Qingyun looked at her trouser legs and shoes again. Didn't women in the Republic of China bind their feet? Her feet were not small, they were still size 37.
But since the NPCs said she was a lady, she didn't need to ask for the truth.
She couldn't get any information out of it, and now she was confused. She thought Xu Xinghe was the same.
Su Qingyun sat down below Xu Xinghe.
The maid came to serve tea. Su Qingyun glanced at her feet. She didn't have bound feet, and she walked briskly in a pair of embroidered shoes.
Perhaps the custom of foot binding has been eliminated, but the shoulder-length hair and melon-shaped hats of men at noon are a little puzzling.
"Mr. Xu, please have some tea!" The middle-aged man stretched out his hand, then picked up his teacup, first used the tea lid to stir the tea leaves, blew on them, and then took a sip.
Xu Xinghe also picked up the teacup. Su Qingyun saw that he opened the lid of the teacup with the hand wearing the ring, so she blew on it and took a sip.
Su Qingyun didn't dare to drink it. Xu Xinghe's ring had the ability to eliminate pollution, but the ring he gave her might not have that ability.
It's impossible for him to have two of the things that can only be bought with 100 million.
What Su Qingyun was holding in her hand should be a gift from Xu Xinghe’s ring, similar to a ring finder.
She sat quietly and watched what would happen.
After drinking tea, the middle-aged man started to talk about business. He said that he invited Mr. Xu and Ms. Su to come this time because his second daughter had a strange disease. She refused to eat or drink and always loved to sleep. He had consulted countless doctors, but they said she was fine.
"I heard from Boss Ye Jian that Mr. Xu is proficient in Feng Shui and Yin and Yang, and is very knowledgeable in exorcising demons. I'm worried that my daughter might have been contaminated by something dirty, so I specially asked you to come and take a look."
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, Su Qingyun said in her heart, it turned out that Xu Xinghe was a Yin-Yang master.
She didn't care that the man also mentioned Ye Jian's name, because she was very concerned about her identity now.
Su Qingyun really hoped that the other party could reveal something.
But the other party didn't, which made Su Qingyun a little disappointed, but she didn't show it. She still sat quietly while the two talked.
After hearing what the other party said, Xu Xinghe immediately said that he would do his best to cure the second lady's illness.
"Miss Su." The middle-aged man finally remembered Su Qingyun and asked with concern, "I heard that you and Mr. Xu came back from Southeast Asia to get married. I'm so sorry to have you come along because of my daughter. I'm really sorry."
Su Qingyun opened her mouth slightly. She didn't want to speak, but was surprised. How did she become Xu Xinghe's fiancée?
Su Qingyun really disliked this setting, thinking of Xu Xinghe's misunderstanding of her. She didn't want to have any status conflict with Xu Xinghe.
At the same time she also noticed that the copy had changed.
In the past, no matter how thrilling the dungeons in the strange world were, they were all set in a set scene, such as a hotel, a hospital, or a deserted village, and the trial-takers had to enter as outsiders to pass the level.
How come the copy in Linhu Village became like this? First the area expanded, then the rules changed (in a single copy, the time can be manipulated strangely), and now the identity has begun to change, and there are actually character attributes.
It's a lot like playing a script-killing game, except that they don't have a prospect summary, and everything requires communicating with NPCs to obtain.
Su Qingyun looked at Xu Xinghe, wanting to see his reaction.
Xu Xinghe was as calm as water. He only said one sentence, "Your little daughter's health is the most important."
Then he asked the Republican man to take him around the house to see if there was any evil spirit causing trouble.
The man from the Republic of China said "OK" but did not stand up. Instead, he called the housekeeper.
In the back hall, a kind-looking old man came out and asked, "Master, what do you want?"
"Take Mr. Xu and Miss Su around the house. Also, don't disturb the Second Miss. If they ask, just say Mr. Xu is my friend and that they'll stay in the guest room on the first floor in the backyard."
"Yes." The old man accepted the order.
Xu Xinghe stood up, and Su Qingyun followed suit.
At this time, the man from the Republic of China naturally had to explain that he had something else to do and that his second daughter's body was completely handed over to Xu Xinghe and so on.
These were similar to what was shown on TV, so Su Qingyun did not listen carefully. She focused her attention on the items displayed in the main hall.
Xu Xinghe pulled her aside and whispered, "Follow closely." He added, "Su Daqiang."
Su Qingyun really wanted to roll her eyes at him, but thinking of her current identity as his fiancée, she endured it.
But he didn't show any good face and followed Xu Xinghe coldly.
After a walk around, Su Qingyun had a general understanding of the layout of the house. This house was a quadrangle courtyard, but unlike the quadrangle courtyards in Kyoto City, the houses were built more compactly, which was also the style of Huizhou architecture.
Behind the main hall is the back hall. Through a corridor you reach the backyard. In the middle of the backyard is a two-story building, which is connected to the east and west wing rooms. The gatehouse is also magnificent.
Su Qingyun had just heard the middle-aged man say that they were staying in the guest rooms on the first floor, so she asked the housekeeper, "How many guest rooms are there on the first floor?"
"There are three."
"Which room do we live in?"
The butler glanced at Su Qingyun, probably not expecting why Su Qingyun would ask that, but he still answered.
"Stay in the first one. It's more convenient for traveling."
Su Qingyun was relieved.
Xu Xinghe seemed to be trying to explain why Su Qingyun asked this, and he said, "The housekeeper is very thoughtful. My fiancée likes to get up at night, so this arrangement is very good."
Su Qingyun was really about to roll her eyes.
She doesn't know when to get up to sleep at night. I'm afraid he has this problem.
But she endured it again.
It is important to pass customs.
