C31

"Shen Junlin, I already know the ins and outs of this matter, but, woman here, it's better for you to put it back." Mo Xian thought for a moment before replying.

Shen Junlin's gloomy face suddenly changed. When facing Mo Xian, he put on that smiling mask again, "I will naturally follow Madam's orders."

Let's talk about how this matter ends. She had to finish her mission first.

Seeing that her hand was preparing to hit the Unholy Mirror again, Shen Junlin frowned: "You still want to go in?"

Mo Xian shook her head. "We've already eliminated the ghost in there. It won't touch me again."

Sure enough, after the Unholy Mirror was caught, it no longer made any movements.

Seeing her put away the Unholy Mirror, Qi Huaizhao did not have much of a reaction. Mo Xian thought that it would be useless for him to give it to her, so she let her take it.

"Congratulations, main task — — Recycling of Unholy Mirror in Hong City has been successful. Rewards: 3000 experience points, 1000 gold coins." The System's voice resounded in Mo Xian's mind.

Suddenly, a bright screen appeared before her eyes. There was a series of messages written on it:

Host: Mo Xian

Ability level: Has been upgraded from a hot chicken dregs to a medium spicy chicken

Experience: 6,300 (pitifully little)

Gold coins: 2,600

Warehouse Gift Package Remaining Quantity: 1

What the heck is this?

System: "Our APP has been upgraded. A new LED display. Is it powerful?"

The corner of Mo Xian's mouth twitched. "Let me ask you what is written on it. Did you determine the ability level?"

System: "No, but I wrote the document."

Mo Xian: "????? Just you wait, if I don't destroy your system, it'll be my loss! "

System: "If you kill my head, you won't receive the quest. You'll be stuck here for the rest of your life."

Mo Xian was angry and didn't want to keep smiling.

The System immediately changed the topic, "Let's see how far you are from the next level."

A blood-red long line suddenly appeared on the screen.

Mo Xian was puzzled. "What do you mean by that?"

System: "Your EXP for completing the quest will be accumulated on it and it will become green if you complete it. When the blood-red bar becomes completely green, you can then level up."

Mo Xian: "This Treading On Horse is so long, how do you expect me to let this strip fall?"

System: "This conversation is getting weirder and weirder. I won't talk to you anymore. Let's talk about the next quest first."

Mo Xian could only listen quietly.

System: Main Quest - Go East. Find White Wood Town and a little boy who is born in the sun and the moon. Bring him back.

Mo Xian raised her hand. "Where are you bringing it back to?"

System: "You'll know when the time comes."

Mo Xian: "It's like this again? It's just like a suspense film, can you explain the requirements all at once? "

The system did not ring again.

Shen Junlin called out to her. Mo Xian came back to her senses and said, "I'm going up first. You solve the problem you've caused yourself."

She only wanted to get a good night's sleep, so she left Qi Huaizhao and Shen Junlin and went straight back to her room.

Mo Xian intended to let Shen Junlin regain the memories of the people of Hong City after she woke up. However, she didn't expect that after she woke up, she would be riding on her horse on the street, but on the roadside of the General's Estate.

"Are you dreaming? Or did you wear it again? " Mo Xian hurriedly stood up, wearing a moon-white robe. Her heart was slightly moved.

Is this Qi Huaizhao's clothes? What about him?

Mo Xian packed up her clothes. She wanted to knock on the door, but Attendant, who opened it, no longer recognized her. Her clothes had also returned to the gray long-distance running vest she was originally wearing.

It was like a dream.

Mo Xian didn't really care. She just happened to be too lazy to explain that she wasn't the Shen family's daughter-in-law. Right now, she just wanted to hurry to the next task point.

White Wood Town.

What exactly was this place?

-

Three days later, the hired carriage stopped before a tall stone gate.

Surprisingly, the sign on the door read "White Wood Town".

A small man wearing a gray jogging coat and a leather cap jumped down from the carriage.

As soon as the commission was given, the carriage hurried back as if it had seen a ghost. Not long after, it disappeared into a thick fog.

The petite man lifted his hat, exposing his sharp chin. His skin was white and exquisite, unlike a rough man's. It was Mo Xian.

Looking for a little boy who was born in the new year of the Sun and the Moon, this quest of the system was getting weirder and weirder.

Mo Xian raised her head and looked at the door plate. It was slightly worn out and the word "Bai" was missing. It looked like the name "Sun Wood Town".

On each side of the hall, there was a stone statue. It didn't look like a lion, but more like a Taotie. It could even eat one's own flesh and blood. Mo Xian's first thought was that this was the place, and it was filled with a deathly stillness.

Would there really be a child born out of the sun and the moon? If the word "Eight" was so hard, then such a heavy place like the yin qi would not be able to contain him.

Mo Xian didn't know what to do, nor did she know where to start.

She had no choice but to enter first. The buildings here were a bit dilapidated, and there were many spiders crawling under the eaves. Every household had their doors closed, just like a faded town.

The layout was also very strange. The houses were very cramped, and every alley didn't seem like they could be passed through.

Mo Xian saw a white handkerchief on the ground. She bent down to pick it up. There was a new word embroidered on it. It seemed that the owner had lost it not long ago.

The weather was gloomy, and night was about to fall. Very soon, a faint mist rose up, shrouding the entire strange town within it.

As Mo Xian walked deeper into the cave, she gradually heard voices. After walking for a distance, she finally calmed down. She thought it was a ghost, but she could not detect any ghost aura.

As the fog grew thicker, Mo Xian suddenly realized that she seemed to have gotten lost. She didn't believe it, and tied a red rope to a tree nearby.

After walking once, he saw the red rope again. If he continued walking forward, it would still be the red rope.

In the end, Mo Xian was certain that she had gotten lost. It was unknown if she had gotten lost or if she had encountered the Wall-Hitting Ghost.

She took out a Yellow Talisman and shouted: "Break!"

If it really was the Wall-Hitting Ghost, then it could have been broken. She tried to walk again and when she returned, it was still the same glaring red rope.

Mo Xian was so angry that she wanted to curse. She had really gotten lost, but she herself wasn't a person with a poor sense of direction!

She could only stand where she was and see if anyone who passed by could give her a lift. The fog was getting thicker and thicker. Mo Xian could only see things two meters away from her in the fog. If someone tried to kill her now, she would probably be caught off guard.

He didn't know how long he waited, but suddenly, he saw a flame not far away. It was just that, as long as there was fire, it meant that there was someone there.

Mo Xian's heart was filled with hope as the bright flame gradually appeared in the mist.

She looked closely and saw a young woman with a graceful figure. She was wearing a purple and red collared shirt and a plain white pleated skirt. Mo Xian noticed that there was a red plum embroidered at the bottom of her skirt, which was as beautiful as a drop of blood.

When the young woman saw Mo Xian, she was taken aback. She stood still for a moment before asking, "Has the young master gotten lost?"

Mo Xian's current attire was still that of a man.

She lowered her voice and said, "Yes. Can I trouble you to bring me out?"

The young woman shouldn't have gotten married. Her hair was tied back in a bun, and she didn't have the mark of a married woman. Therefore, it seemed rather taboo for a man to be alone with his wife.

However, the girl only laughed. In the hazy mist, Mo Xian could not see her facial features clearly, and only felt that she looked pretty good.

"Of course it's possible. Young master, please follow me."

There was no ghost aura around her. She was a human.

Mo Xian relaxed her guard a little and followed her.

The woman turned around and said, "Young master is not someone from White Water Town, right?" She was sure of it.

Mo Xian nodded. "I had wanted to come over to take a look, but who knew that no one would be able to lead the way? I'm actually lost."

The woman covered her mouth with her hand and laughed, "The key point is that it's getting dark and the road isn't easy. This place is close to the mountain, and there will be fog at night."

"So that's how it is." Mo Xian said in a low voice. After walking for a long distance, both of them stopped talking.

The woman spoke again, "I'm afraid we won't be able to get out now, and there won't be a car to call over. How about Young Master stay at my inn for the time being?"

Mo Xian became suspicious again when she heard that she was the Lady Boss of the inn. If she was only taking her out, that would be fine. But if she was taking her to her territory now, how could Mo Xian not be nervous?

Seeing that her reaction was laughable, the woman continued, "Young master, my name is Jiang Huaige, I'm not a bad woman, and my inn is not a flowerbed, are you afraid that I'll eat you?" She giggled and spoke very directly.

Jiang Huaige had already introduced herself, but Mo Xian's vigilance did not decrease in the slightest.

"Young master, it's fine if you don't want to go, but I'll have to say it first. You'll have to wait under the door for an entire night. Can your body withstand such a dense mist?" Jiang Huaige was still giggling, seemingly very concerned about Mo Xian's health.

Mo Xian thought for a moment. Forget it.

"Alright, I'll have to trouble Miss Jiang to take me there. I'll temporarily go to your inn." Mo Xian was no longer afraid.

Jiang Huaige nodded. "Young master, please come with me."

Bright yellow lights flickered in the fog, and the night became darker. It was pitch black, and there was even a layer of water vapor on his body as he walked along the road.

When they arrived at the inn, even their hair was almost wet.

The inn was called Penglai Inn, and there was a flag at the entrance with the word 'Wine' written on it. Presumably, the Penglai Inn also had wine for sale. There were two eye-piercing red lanterns hanging on both sides of the street. In the pitch-black fog, they looked like two pairs of red eyes.

There seemed to be a lot of people inside. When Jiang Huaige brought Mo Xian in, it was extremely crowded.

However, it was not too late. Many people were eating and drinking.

"Boss Jiang is back, your family's wine is so delicious!" A bunch of strong men at the table stared lewdly at Jiang Huaige, their eyeballs threatening to dig them out for him.

However, Jiang Huaige's expression remained unchanged. A faint smile hung on her elegant and charming face. She remained calm and collected.

Not a simple character.

Mo Xian looked around her surroundings. There were quite a number of people sitting around. The inn had a total of five floors. The first floor was a pure dining area, while the second floor had guest rooms on both sides.

Now, the eight tables on the first floor were filled with people.

"Get out of the way." An extremely hoarse male voice brushed past Mo Xian.
