This is really bad news – things aren't going in the right order.
Bai Sang frowned and walked around the building.
Looking up, an old man suddenly appeared in front of Bai Sang.
"Little girl, what are you looking for?"
Bai Sang was startled. The old man in front of her had a dark face and many wrinkles, which looked like deep ravines on his face.
"I'm looking for my friend's house. He lives in Building 5, but I can't find where Building 5 is."
The old man raised his hand and pointed behind Bai Sang.
"There."
His voice was hoarse, and Bai Sang couldn't even tell his gender.
"That building, the one with roses in front of it."
Bai Sang hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"Why isn't Building No. 5 next to Building No. 4?"
The old man's hands, as hard as old tree bark, grasped the white mulberry tree.
"You want to know? Do me a favor, and I'll give you a detailed map of this area."
Bai Sang was immediately smitten.
However, the next second, a hand slapped the old man's hand away.
"release."
It's Yun Yuan. Why did he come back at such a crucial time?
The old man glanced at Yun Yuan, said nothing, and slowly left.
"What did you figure out?"
Yun Yuan was taken aback. "He's a monster. He's trying to capture you."
Bai Sang felt like she was about to be driven mad with anger.
Yun Yuan usually seems quite intelligent, so what's wrong with him now?
Did he lose his brain?
Did they throw away their brains along with the rules?
Yun Yuan seemed to realize that he had been too hasty and made a mistake.
"I...I'll go find him and bring him back."
Bai Sang shook off Yun Yuan's hand.
"Our values clash. I'm not forcing you to help me, but could you please stop ruining things for me?"
"I was talking to a ghost, but I didn't hurt anyone, did I?"
Yun Yuan wanted to explain, but he didn't know where to begin.
"I, I'm not..."
Bai Sang ignored him and chased after the old man in the direction he had left.
Whether it's true or false, we'll only know after asking.
When Bai Sang arrived at Building No. 5, which the old man had mentioned, he saw that the man who ate meat but not garlic was already chatting with the old man.
She breathed a sigh of relief and stood aside waiting.
"Little girl, that one is quite fierce."
Bai Sang smiled sheepishly.
"Alright, I've given the job to this little kid, so don't ask me anymore."
After saying that, he picked a flower and went into Building No. 5.
Bai Sang hesitated for a moment before standing in front of Building No. 5.
"This is Building No. 5."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sign for Building No. 5 appeared.
The old man wasn't lying to her.
"What mission?"
"Deliver the food to Building 10 over there. The food must not spill and must be delivered intact."
Bai Sang felt a little amused.
"Put it in your inventory, and you'll be sure not to spill a drop when you get there."
He patted his pocket with a smile, saying he ate meat but not garlic.
"It's in."
"Building No. 10 is over there, let's go there first."
Le Yuan had his hands in his pockets, looking sleepy and not fully awake.
"The building with the osmanthus tree is Building No. 10."
He suddenly spoke up.
Eating meat but not garlic, looking at the building they've chosen.
"That old man was pointing to this building."
Le Yuan looked helpless.
Can you use your brain and ears at the same time?
He just pointed casually and said to go to the building with the osmanthus tree in front of it.
"Can you really stick with Sangsang until the end like this?"
His face flushed red immediately after eating meat but not garlic.
"I, I really didn't mean to."
Bai Sang gently nudged Le Yuan.
"Don't talk nonsense, he's always been reliable."
Le Yuan gave a cold laugh.
"So, were you a little lax today?"
"I understand, brother-in-law. You're just using this as an opportunity to teach me a lesson. I'll definitely pay attention in the future."
After confirming that it was Building No. 10, Bai Sang and Chi Rou Bu Chi Suan looked at the sky, gritted their teeth, and entered Building No. 10.
It was getting dark.
They had to get out before dark.
The empty staircase was covered in dust, and every step left a clear footprint.
"Does anyone actually live in this building?"
Bai Sang couldn't help but speak in a low voice.
He eats meat but not garlic, carefully observing the walls and handrails.
"There's someone there."
"There are a few paint marks here, and they're quite fresh."
"And here, something must have been stuck here, the adhesive is still a bit sticky."
Bai Sang listened intently to the sounds coming from upstairs.
Something fell down.
As Bai Sang spoke, he pulled the girl who ate meat but not garlic back off alertly.
When we retreated to the third step, the whooshing sound suddenly became very loud.
"Holy crap, it's broken glass."
Sharp shards of glass hurtled toward Bai Sang and the others.
"Get out of the way!"
Bai Sang was pushed by the fact that people eat meat but not garlic.
However, Yun Yuan and Le Yuan were even faster at it than eating meat but not garlic.
Following the principle of proximity, they grabbed the people closest to them and protected them behind them.
When things finally quieted down, Bai Sang was so frightened that her hands and feet turned cold, and she trembled as she asked Yun Yuan, who was holding her in his arms, to turn around.
"Are you out of your minds? Just pull us away, won't that solve the problem?"
Her voice was trembling with sobs, but the sobs stopped abruptly when she saw Yun Yuan's unharmed back.
"fine?"
"You guys are completely unharmed?"
Yun Yuan felt a surge of heat rising in his heart.
"I'm fine, I just wanted to protect you."
