Ye Zixuan pressed her body against the wall of the carriage, feeling uncomfortable.

She had thought that she would be returning to the Manor by herself or in a car with her servant girl. She hadn't thought that the Fourth Elder would allow her to travel with him.

"Useless host, such a good opportunity, if you don't grasp it well, you will take the opportunity to gain his goodwill. When you return to the mansion, you will be thrown into the cold palace, and you won't even be able to see him anymore. When that time comes, how are you going to hug me? Do you still want the merit points?" The System was furious, but it had never seen such a useless host before!

Ye Zixuan's body stiffened when she heard this. She raised her gaze helplessly and glanced at the Fourth Elder, who was engrossed in her book.

He silently encouraged himself in his heart. Ye Zixuan, come on, you can do it!

"Master, are you thirsty? I'll get you a cup of tea. " Ye Zixuan forced a smile.

"I'm not thirsty." Fourth Master looked like he was reading a book, but he was actually secretly looking at Ye Zixuan from the corner of his eyes.

"Oh …" Ye Zixuan was a little disheartened. This' hugging a thigh 'was really a skillful move.

Seeing her dejected look, Fourth Master's heart softened. She was probably frightened by his coldness.

She wanted to curry favor with him, but she couldn't do anything about it. That was why she felt so awkward.

"Have you ever learned massage? This grandpa's shoulder is a little sore. "

Ye Zixuan was overjoyed upon hearing this. Massage techniques were extremely common to her.

"Yes."

"I've learned a bit. If I don't mind my poor workmanship, how about I help you massage it?"

Fourth Master nodded slightly in agreement.

Ye Zixuan was adept at medical techniques, and her acupoint recognition was extremely accurate. Furthermore, she had a good grasp of the strength of the acupuncture point.

After being kneaded by Ye Zixuan a few times, Fourth Master felt that all his fatigue had disappeared, and he couldn't help but feel satisfied with Ye Zixuan a little bit more.

When he relaxed his mind, he felt a little drowsy. Not long after, he felt the strength on his shoulders lessening, and he felt a touch of warmth on his shoulders.

He couldn't help but open his eyes, only to see Ye Zixuan sleeping soundly on his shoulder.

Her long eyelashes gently covered her, but it could not cover the trace of azure in her eyes.

Fourth Master knew that she was exhausted, so he couldn't help but feel pity for her.

He had rested for four hours last night, and even today, he felt extremely exhausted, not to mention that she, a small girl, had not slept the entire night.

Subconsciously, he lifted his shoulder to make her feel more comfortable.

"Su Peisheng, slow down."

Fourth Master instructed softly.

He yawned, relaxed, and slept with Ye Zixuan.

It wasn't until the sound of a suona melody rang out that the two slowly woke up. Ye Zixuan realized that she was sleeping against Fourth Master's shoulder. She blushed and sat up straight.

"Su Peisheng, what happened?"

"Master, we ran into a funeral procession. This servant has already sent the guards to clear the way."

Su Peisheng replied with a bitter face. I'm of noble status, I can't let these commoners offend me.

"No need, let them pass first. The dead are the big ones." Fourth Master frowned and said plainly.

Ye Zixuan couldn't help but to glance at him in surprise. She realized that Jin Datui was a really good person. Last time, he was willing to let Han Qi treat him first, and this time, he was also willing to let the civilian funeral team go first.

"Yes." Su Peisheng replied respectfully.

"We have orders, all of you, move to the side and let them pass first." Su Peisheng shouted.

When Liu Jingxuan heard this, he gratefully bowed towards Fourth Master's carriage and respectfully said, "Disciple Liu Jingxuan thanks your benefactor for his kindness."

"There's no need to be polite, the dead are the big ones!" Fourth Master said lightly.

When Liu Jingxuan heard this, he felt great pain in his heart. Even the nobles knew that the dead were big, and were willing to give their deceased wife some dignity.

She was originally a relative, but why was her mother being so harsh to her?

His wife had died in childbirth. Originally, she had planned to stop her cultivation for a few days, but when her mother heard the fortune-teller's nonsense, she assumed that the child in her womb was unknown.

His wife had just died in the morning when his mother forced him to roll up the mat and bury him.

He truly felt apologetic and hastily bought a thin coffin. He even asked the villagers to blow the wind and beat it to prevent his wife from causing too much trouble.

However, they didn't expect that the funeral procession would run into the carriage of a noble.

Fortunately, the nobleman in the carriage was kind and willing to let them go first. If they met someone with a bad temper, they would be punished.

"It's all your fault! If it wasn't for you, who had to give this short-lived ghost a coffin, if you threw this dead ghost to the unmarked cemetery, wouldn't everything be fine? Fortunately, Venerable One doesn't blame us. Otherwise, our entire family would have been killed by this jinx! " Mrs Liu screamed at him.

When their voices reached the carriage, both Fourth Master and Ye Zixuan frowned.

Mother, she is my wife, the mother of the child in my womb. She died in childbirth in order to pass on her lineage to me. Liu Jingxuan said bitterly.

"New mission: Save the lives of mother and child in the coffin

Quest Completion: Reward of 10 Merit Points

Mission failed: Deducting 20 Merit Points

Accept task?

"Successfully accepted the mission!"

"What?" The person in the coffin is still alive? " Ye Zixuan was so shocked that she even forgot to care about the bullshit behavior of the System.

"Yes, both mother and child are still alive in the coffin. Pregnant women are only faking their deaths because of difficult childbirth. However, if you don't quickly save them, they will truly die."

The System urged.

"How do you want me to save him? The coffin was covered! I was asked how I knew they weren't dead. How do you expect me to answer? You want them to burn me like a monster? "

Ye Zixuan felt that she would be tricked to death by the System sooner or later, to actually send such a mission.

However, the mother and son in the coffin were truly pitiful. How could he save them?

Annoyed, Ye Zixuan pulled the curtain to the car. She smelled the stench of blood in the air, looked at the ground, and was immediately overjoyed. She shouted, "Put down the coffin!"
