Compared to Lu Nanxing's excitement, Jiang Xuxu showed no surprise after the initial shock, but instead looked calm.
"Is there something wrong with this bed?"
Lu Nanxing was stunned for a moment, "Is it okay?"
"Hua Sui is a man whose bones will not decay. This coffin is just right for him."
Lu Nanxing groaned, and her baby face suddenly showed confusion.
"That's true, but how do they know Hua Sui is a zombie?!"
The fact that his bones have not decayed already distinguishes him from ordinary zombies in appearance, not to mention that after she brought him back to the tribe, she had specially used a secret method to conceal the foul aura on his body.
It can be said that from appearance to aura, he is basically no different from ordinary people except that his skin is whiter!
It was strange in itself to be recognized at a glance, not to mention...how could an ordinary person put a coffin in the room!
“And this is a top-quality nanmu coffin!
All I have ever had is a mini coffin made of red sandalwood, which my grandfather gave me when I enrolled in the Taoist College.
Lu Nanxing said as he took photos of the details of the coffin for Jiang Xuxu.
"Look at the craftsmanship. Even my uncle who is the best at making coffins in our clan doesn't have such exquisite craftsmanship..."
While Lu Nanxing was chattering away, Jiang Xuxu became calmer.
"That only means that the other party had seen through the identities of all of us when we first met or when we entered the village."
From Hu Lizhi, Yuling, to Hua Sui, and even her relationship with Chu Beihe, nothing seemed to escape the eyes of these villagers.
Although she didn't know how the other party saw through her at a glance, she was vaguely certain of one thing.
"So far, I haven't felt any malice from these people. In fact, they have given me the highest standard of reception that they know."
How can I not say this is thoughtful?
Lu Nanxing was almost convinced. He opened his mouth to say something, but then he heard Jiang Xuxu say,
"Get some rest tonight. Didn't the village chief say that if there's anything, we can talk about it tomorrow?"
Although Jiang Xuxu said so, he still asked Lu Nanxing to set up a protective magic circle in the room before going to bed.
She is no exception.
Chu Beihe watched her busying around in the room, and after a while he just said,
"You stay here with that Yu Ling tonight. I'll sleep in the next room."
"Why?" Jiang Xuxu turned his head, seemingly puzzled by his decision.
Chu Beihe looked at her, his tone seemed helpless.
"Have you forgotten that we are not a real couple?"
They were just engaged, not married, so he couldn't really sleep in the same room with her. It would be bad for her and she would be embarrassed.
Seeing that Jiang Xuxu was about to say something, Chu Beihe just said,
"I roughly know what the situation is in this village. You can rest assured. I will be fine on my own."
Chu Beihe was about to walk out, but unexpectedly Jiang Xuxu reached out and grabbed him.
"We're engaged even though we're not married. As your fiancée, I have the responsibility to ensure your safety. You just stay here and don't go anywhere."
As he spoke, Jiang Xuxu seemed to think it was a bit strange to force someone to stay and sleep. He glanced at Yu Ling next to him and added,
"The three of us sleep together."
Chu Beihe: ...
Yu Ling: ...I felt a chill for some unknown reason.
In the end, Yu Ling obediently returned to her main body. Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe each slept on half of the bed, and the space between them was given to the system turtle.
System Turtle: ...
It felt like it had spent the longest and most torturous night in its life.
Jiang Xuxu and Chu Beihe slept very soundly.
Even when Jiang Xuxu opened his eyes, he felt as if he was surrounded by abundant spiritual energy.
That pure spiritual energy naturally came from Chu Beihe who was beside him.
He slept just as he had last night before, and the dividing line between the two of them was still clear, except...
I didn't know when my hand was pulled towards me.
Her hand, like a bridge across the border between Chu and Han, was gently held in his hand, with her palm pressed against his abdomen.
Even through the soft quilt, I could still feel the slight rise and fall of the quilt beneath his breathing.
For some reason, Jiang Xuxu felt his palms were a little hot.
Then, the heat gradually spread to the neck and ear tips.
For a moment, she forgot the strange and bizarre place they were in.
Fortunately, as she woke up, Chu Beihe quickly opened his eyes, moved his fingers slightly, and immediately realized that the hand he was holding did not belong to him.
When he turned around, he unexpectedly met Jiang Xuxu's eyes.
In the mountains in the early morning, the surroundings are so quiet that only the sound of birds singing can be heard.
The two of them just stared at each other from a distance, and a feeling they had never experienced before quietly spread between them.
Until... a wood-grained turtle, wrapped in a faint black mist, floated lightly from the end of the bed to between the two people's heads.
The system turtle turned its head and looked straight at Jiang Xuxu.
[Can't you all be a little nervous? Do you really think you are here for vacation? Are you still going to find the master? ]
[I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you're even harder to lead than Lu Xuexi.]
The system directly attacked Jiang Xuxu's mind, and Jiang Xuxu's response was...
No time to respond.
Because before she was about to move, Jin Xiaohe and Jin Xiaoxu, who had been hanging on the bed curtains all night, had already flown down.
The two little ones, one on the left and one on the right, raised their legs and kicked the troublesome turtle that was preventing their owner from developing feelings for them, directly kicking it away.
The system was kicked away suddenly and flew straight to the window. Its turtle body first knocked open the half-closed wooden window, and then the whole turtle flew out.
At this moment, the window opened wide, and the air outside the house rushed in. Jiang Xuxu sat up with a startle.
Chu Beihe also stood up.
The two of them came to the window and saw that a large number of villagers had gathered downstairs without them knowing when.
They seemed to be frightened by the turtle that suddenly flew out, and were now scattering in panic.
Occasionally, some people who didn't get there in time and met the sight of Jiang Xuxu and the others upstairs, such as the village chief, would pretend to be calm and smile at them, and then directly greet them,
"My two distinguished guests, breakfast is ready. Please come down and eat now."
Jiang Xuxu: ...
The system is right about one thing.
She is indeed too unfocused.
Casual to the point of being careless.
Even though I had synchronized some information with Chu Beihe before going to bed last night, I had a general understanding of the situation in this village.
But...she was indeed a little too relaxed as she was surrounded by a group of people downstairs all morning without noticing anything.
If these villagers did not have any ill will towards them, who knows what would have happened that night.
The cell phone rang again.
Jiang Xuxu opened it and saw that it was still a message from Lu Nanxing.
She just took a picture of her breakfast.
The breakfast for her, Hua Sui, and Hu Lizhi consisted of shredded chicken porridge, chicken blood porridge, and a whole chicken.
Another thoughtful set meal.
That is, it's a bit too considerate.
Lu Nanxing was about to cry.
"Are we going to eat it or not?"
