Chapter 2 Dead Man Pretending to Be Alive(1/2)

Xia Ji pushed the door and entered the room. Han Hu sat behind a long and narrow high-legged table, and there was a woman with heavy makeup and a sallow complexion standing next to her.

The windows were closed, and only a little light came in through the paper window. The room was a little dark, making Xia Ji unable to see Han Hu's face clearly.

The woman next to her with heavy makeup is the newly-acquisted concubine Yue Niang, who is about 25 or 26 years old. Although her makeup is a little thicker, she has a very good figure. Xia Ji also obediently called Master's wife.

Xia Ji checked the paper in the consciousness space, but there was no information about Yue Niang on the log.

Logs are not all-in-one knowledge, they only record information within their new identity experience.

The new identity should not know Yue Niang, so there is no relevant information.

"Your master is talking about it. The other disciples have received secret books, but you just don't." Yue Niang said with a giggle.

"Thank you for your concern for Master and Master. Master and Master and Master and his selfless and generous care for his disciples is really a model for us. I am also deeply impressed by Master and Master and Master and Master's heart." Xia Ji said.

"You kid can speak. You must practice this black flame ritual hard. When you encounter something you don't understand, you can save it first. You can try your best to answer questions in a unified way." Han Hu threw a thin booklet over.

After a few more polite words, Xia Ji took the leave tactfully.

After leaving the house, Xia Ji's face turned serious.

On the surface, Han Hu seemed to be normal, but Xia Ji still noticed a subtle abnormality.

The room was too dark, and the long table was all suspicious.

Han Hu doesn’t seem to want others to get close or see clearly. Why is this?

Maybe there is an ulterior secret hidden in it.

But so what? It has nothing to do with me, the skills have been obtained.

Xia Ji was about to leave, but at this time, the paper popped up a new task prompt.

Mission: Qingshui City doubts

Sub-task 2: Investigate Han Hu.

Requirement: Investigate Han Hu.

Description: Dark room, empty body, do you want to know the truth?

Reward: Very little experience

Xia Ji was slightly stunned.

The water creatures at the South Gate Wharf and the abnormalities at the Taurus Martial Arts Hall are all classified into the same task, namely the Qingshui City Suspicion Mission.

The system uses this as sub-task 2, indicating that the various strange events that occurred in the martial arts hall are related to the water creatures at the dock.

The water creatures at the dock and the abnormal museum owner, what kind of connection do these two seemingly unrelated events have made Xia Ji feel a little curious.

Xia Ji shrank and hid behind the house. It was actually a gap between the house and the exterior wall.

From here, you can observe the people entering and leaving the house, and others have to turn a corner to see Xia Ji.

Even if someone comes to check it out, Xia Ji can react in advance, which is an excellent stalking position.

This ability has also been learned through many time travel.

After waiting for a while, a shadow flew out of the room. It was Yue Niang. She was elegant and almost completely untouched, not like a human.

Xia Ji looked at Yue Niang's body skills and knew that she was a master, so she didn't dare to show off.

After a while, it was estimated that Yue Niang had gone far.

Xia Ji had just stepped out of the wall, poked a small hole in the window paper, and sneaked into the room.

I was afraid that people inside would notice that the hole was very small, so Xia Ji only saw Han Hu's back and could not see other parts of the room.

Han Hu was still sitting on the high chair, motionless, and his sitting posture seemed to have not changed.

The more Xia Ji looked at him, the more strange he felt, and could no longer hold back, so he pried open the window and jumped into the room.

Xia Ji approached and found several thin ropes behind Han Hu, and tied him to a chair.

Xia Ji turned to Han Hu again and whispered: "Master."

Han Hu had no response.

Xia Ji stretched out his finger to Han Hu's nose and couldn't feel his breath. When he looked at Han Hu's face, there was a light layer of powder.

Han Hu is dead.

Even though Xia Ji had experienced many strange things, he couldn't help but feel worried when he saw this scene.

The dark light indoors, the long table, the makeup on the face, and the ropes fixed behind them are all for the illusion that Han Hu is still alive.

And the one who created this illusion was Yue Niang.

However, why can Han Hu speak? Maybe it was because Yue Niang used some kind of oral skills to make a fake.

Why did she do this? I wondered if I thought about it later. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time.

Xia Ji flashed out of the house, slipped out of the martial arts hall, and passed several blocks, stopping in a secluded alley.

Looking at the paper log, [Subtask 2: Investigation Han Hu] has become the [Completed] state, and the task reward has also been received.

Xia Ji checked the consciousness space, which made the green paint on the sign a little more.

The green paint on the sign represents experience. The more green paint, the more experience it is.

There are four props in the consciousness space, namely soap clothes, signs, iron rulers and paper.

Load new identity for soap clothes, record tasks with paper, and iron ruler represents skills.

The order sign has two functions: one is to show experience and the other is to prompt clues.

For example, when you get lost, the sign can prompt the direction.

Of course, the prompt is not free and requires a certain amount of experience.

Order signs are also commonly used props for constables, and they are divided into two types: green head signs and red head signs.

The green-headed visa is a sign-in, a certificate for the constable to arrest people.

The red-headed sign is a criminal sign. The county magistrate wants to beat a board on TV, and the red-headed sign thrown out is a criminal sign.

When Xia Ji designed the game, he chose the green-headed sign because it was a constable puzzle game, so the red-headed sign that represents punishment was not used.

With experience, you can upgrade your skills in the iron ruler.

The iron ruler is a standard weapon for constables. The head is blunt and the forks on both sides are wider. It can lock people's arms or swords, and can also be used to knock, but cannot be stabbed.

Xia Ji was about to call out the skill interface of the iron ruler when he suddenly heard a slight footsteps coming from the entrance of the alley, and it sounded like seven or eight people.

This alley is extremely remote, and even locals rarely pass by, so why does a group of people suddenly appear?

Xia Ji saw a pile of broken rubble next to him, and he got in without thinking.

The rubble pile is not high. From a distance, I think it cannot hide people, and if you look closely, it may reveal the content.

This group of people who suddenly appeared were mostly malicious. Xia Ji didn't want to meet them. It would be best if he could avoid it, but he wouldn't say it.

Through the gaps in the rubble, Xia Ji vaguely saw eight sailors dressed in their arms, walking through the alley with swords and swords.

The group quickly walked to the rubble. They were in a hurry to go, but no one noticed that there was a person hiding under the rubble.

"The thing is really on the Dafu ship? Is the source reliable?" said one of them.

"I can't be wrong, it was said by my sister-in-law's second aunt's third brother." Another said.

Xia Ji saw that these people were all fierce and strong, and they were rushing for some cargo ship, most of them were a group of bandits.

Seeing that the group of people were getting further and further away, Xia Ji breathed a sigh of relief. He just wanted to complete the task, so the less unnecessary trouble, the better.

Seeing that the group was about to walk out of the alley, the leader suddenly lowered his whistle, and everyone stopped and pulled out their swords.

"Who is it?" the leader shouted in a low voice.

"Are you a friend of the Dajiang Gang?" A masked man appeared at the entrance of the alley.

Xia Ji could hear it clearly, and felt that the masked man's voice seemed to have heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

"Yes, who is your priest?" said the leader.

"I advise you not to interfere in the matter of the Demon Banner." The masked man said.

When Xia Ji heard this, he suddenly realized that the masked man's voice was Yue Niang. Although she deliberately pinched her voice, she could not hide it.

"You also know the Demon Banner? Who are you? Which sect and which sect are from?" the leader said angrily.

"You don't deserve to know, you just need to know. If you covet the Demon Banner again, you will be killed by the Dajiang Gang." The masked man said.

"What a big tone, you are a good figure. Why not follow our boss and have something to enjoy." One person teased.

Everyone else laughed.

Suddenly, the teaser fell backwards.

Everyone shouted and waved their swords, but the masked man shook a few times. After a series of screams, everyone fell to the ground and died, leaving only the leader standing.

"You..." The leader shivered.

"Leave you to send a message to you, and tell you the Ouyang Gang Leader." After the masked man said, he disappeared.
