Chapter 48
"I have parents and children to take care of. I am forced to do this because of life. I have to take care of the wrongs. Please don't blame me."
It was pitch black all around, and one could vaguely see mounds of varying sizes. Weeds and dead branches were swaying in the wind, adding a sense of terror to the night.
The man who was talking in a mysterious way was dressed in gray, and was probably in his thirties or forties. The gleam of light and greed in his eyes made people feel uncomfortable.
After giving a long speech as usual, Sun Tao began his treasure hunt.
Touching corpses sounds unlucky, but no one wants money. Even if you can't find any valuable burial objects, you can shave off your long hair and sell it for a good price.
After all, if he doesn't tell anyone, how many people would know the origin of the hair?
He has been doing this for almost ten years. He was indeed afraid at the beginning, but later he became numb.
Poverty is much more terrible than death.
"Click"
Sun Tao, who was still digging the soil, was startled by the sudden sound. He looked over and saw that the vague shadow was probably a branch broken by the wind.
But before he could calm down, a strange sound came again from not far away.
Sun Tao couldn't help swallowing his saliva. The fact that he could do this job meant that he was brave enough, but the darkness would always magnify fear.
Sun Tao calmed down and listened for a while. After he found that the strange sound just now disappeared, he just thought that he was just scaring too much. Maybe it was a mouse that was active at night. However, just as he bent down and continued to dig the soil, the sound coming to his ears became clearer and clearer.
"cough...."
Sun Tao seemed to be frozen in time, remaining in a bent position. Even if he wanted to deceive himself, he could not hide the fact that he just heard someone coughing. However, there were graves all around, so how could someone be coughing?
All of a sudden, countless terrifying thoughts flooded into his mind. The coughing sound became closer and closer, and Sun Tao felt a chill running down his spine.
His heart was beating wildly, as if it would jump out of his chest at any time. Fear was like a tide that kept invading his mind. The terror was driving him crazy. So when another strange sound came, Sun Tao finally plucked up the courage. He quickly straightened up, picked up the kerosene lamp beside him and shone it in the direction of the sound.
It was an extremely pale face, with long black hair draped to the waist, just like the long hair he shaved off every time. Blood flowed from the other person's forehead into the black clothes, and a pair of eyes were bright and strange in the dark night.
In an instant, Sun Tao's breathing became rapid, his eyes widened, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. At this moment, he screamed loudly, his voice was like broken notes, and he crawled away from here in a few seconds.
“Ghost ahhhhhhhh!!!”
The screams startled the birds and insects that were resting at night, and countless birds flew out of the woods at once.
Not long after I woke up, I felt short of breath and leaned against an abandoned building on the side of a tombstone???
He looked at the man in front of him with a confused look on his face, who was pointing at him and shouting "ghost". Before he could say anything, he saw the man running away quickly. The sound of a heavy object falling to the ground and the man's painful wails were enough for Lou Ai to judge that the man had fallen badly.
After taking the Soul-Fixing Pill, Shen Yuqing quickly used his mental power to connect with the new character. If he didn't connect quickly, the other person might be picked up somewhere by some kind-hearted person, just like Shuang Bei who woke up in the carriage.
"It hurts a little."
Louqi spat out a mouthful of blood and muttered to himself. He was able to accept the fact that he woke up in a desolate grave. At least the game panel did not let him lie in the coffin and need to dig his way out by himself.
But it seemed that I had scared someone just now, and thinking of the person who ran away screaming, Louqi felt that he was completely innocent.
He remembered that he was trying to put gunpowder into his newly made hidden weapon, but unfortunately someone came to him to exchange martial arts skills, which caused him to make a mistake in the process, and both the person and he were injured by the gunpowder.
The noise of the gunpowder was quite loud and attracted many people's attention. After Louqi dragged his injured body and got rid of a bunch of small tails, before he had time to take elixirs to heal his injuries, someone from the Imperial Army knocked on Shen Yuqing's door. The other party had the latest plan for treating mental power in his hand. Shen Yuqing smiled and accepted it, then returned to his room and had no intention of continuing to play the game. It was not until he came to this world that he remembered that Louqi had not taken the elixir to heal his injuries.

Seeing that his profession was an assassin, Louqi was a little dissatisfied. He just accepted a few bounties and killed a few people in order to collect materials for making weapons.
Game player: Fuck you! Have some shame! How many times have you killed me?!
LOF: But the bounty is really generous.
If the players who once felt that Shuangbei was pitiful and weak are now slapped in the face after seeing the resounding name on the competitive leaderboard, and despise Shuangbei's behavior of pretending to be weak, then those who often accept suspense and kill people without leaving any trace can be said to be condemned by everyone.
楼訓費: I don't know why there's always someone following me lately, it's so weird.
Game player: I am vomiting blood! What level of Qinggong is he at? I can’t catch up with him at all! How can I take revenge?!
After leaning against the tombstone for a while, Lou Qi swallowed a pill and soon felt much better. At least the sticky smell of blood was no longer in his throat. However, it was probably because he had already vomited the blood.
The wilderness surrounded by graves did not look like a suitable place to recuperate. The wind was quite strong at night. Louqi looked at his tattered and thin clothes. He stood up, picked up the kerosene lamp that the shouting man had just dropped, and walked along the path on the side.
Sun Tao rolled and crawled all the way. He was too scared to stop. He accidentally lost his kerosene lamp. It was pitch black all around and he couldn't tell the direction at all.
Until a ruined temple appeared in front of him. The faint light from the temple made Sun Tao feel like he saw a savior. He ran towards the ruined temple without thinking too much.
A silver light flashed, and the long sword was placed in front of the neck of Sun Tao who suddenly broke into the ruined temple.
The fear of encountering a ghost coupled with the stinging pain in his neck almost paralyzed Sun Tao to the ground, while a warm current wet his pants.
After noticing that the other party was incontinent, Ying Qi, who had originally held the sword against the other party's neck, frowned.
"A person so flustered late at night, I'm afraid he has done something wrong." Ying Qi was not an unreasonable person. He had already sensed the other person's presence before the other person entered the ruined temple. The other person's breath was disordered, his face was terrified, and his clothes and hands were covered with mud. It had been sunny in recent days, and unless the other person fell into the river, it would be difficult for him to be stained with such wet mud. However, there were no signs of falling into water on the other person's clothes. On the contrary, the collar seemed to be wet with sweat, and he looked like he had done something wrong.
"Your Excellency, it's all unjust, all unjust!" Sun Tao's heart started pounding when he heard Ying Qi say this. Thinking of his own behavior of digging graves, his eyes twitched with guilt.
Ying Qi snorted coldly at the other party's evasive gaze. At the signal of his master, he continued to question: "You'd better tell the truth, otherwise the sword has no eyes. You also know that it's dark and windy at night. It's a murder and a corpse..."
