[Here is the plot of the copy.]
[The town of Jiangnan was shrouded in apricot blossoms and spring rain. There was a wealthy gentleman in the town called Lord Li. He was rich, loved beauty, and married 18 wives in his lifetime. Just as he was about to marry his 19th, wealthy Lord Li was found dead in his home.]
[His body was a bloody mess, and his heart, liver, and lungs had been ripped out. The death was gruesome, like an evil spirit had been demanding for his life.]
[Ding! The plot’s background is finished, and the tasks will now be released.]
[Task 1: Survive in the game copy for 5 days and 5 nights.]
[Task 2: Find Lord Li’s murderer within the game time, and find the real cause of death.]
[This is a single player copy, and the number of game players is 1. The difficulty level of the copy is A level. After the game is completed, you will get performance points and mall points according to player performance.]
[A description of the character “Concubine 19”: He is a *qing guanren in the brothel with a weak and timid character. His body is sensitive and afraid of pain, he cries easily, and doesn’t even have the strength to tie a chicken. On the day he turned 18, Lord Li bought him with a lot of money, and it was also the day Lord Li planned to receive him as concubine 19.]
[Friendly reminder: Player must comply with the role and character setting. Please do not OOC, otherwise it will be considered a foul.]
[Three fouls will be upgraded to a violation, and violations will be punished by the system. Punishment: Beheading.]
Bai Lixin snorted after hearing the friendly reminder: [So the system learned its lesson this time?]
The escape system stalled for two seconds.
In the [River God] copy, the sick and dying “Saint” punched over a mountain of red spider monsters.
The escape system made a final struggle: [Please, the player must cherish life and not OOC!]
[The game rules have been given, I wish the player a happy game!]
With the last “ding”, Bai Lixin’s dark surroundings gradually brightened up.
At the moment, he was kneeling in an ancient style hall and sitting in front of him was a 40 year old refined woman.
The woman was plump, and her face had an ugly expression.
She was in a black cheongsam and looked like a vulture in the sky as she stared straight at Bai Lixin.
Bai Lixin looked at his sides from the corner of his eyes. On both sides of the hall was a total of eight people sitting on golden silk sandalwood chairs. There were both men and women, and each was wearing a cheongsam.
“This hoof, what are you looking at?!”
An angry voice rang out. Bai Lixin followed the voice to look over. The one yelling was an old woman behind the woman in the black cheongsam.
Seeing Bai Lixin look over, the old woman wrinkled her face and said angrily, “Heh, it’s actually the opposite. Under the blue sky and the earth, how dare you use such foxy eyes to look at the madam?! He’s turning against the sky!”
It seemed that the plump woman in the black cheongsam was the “madam” of the house. Then were those around “concubines”, or children?
“Shameless thing, still think this is that uncouth brothel!”
“Tell me honestly, did you kill the Lord?”
The scolding is quite high. Old woman, your mouth is sharp, did you go to cram school?
While the old woman was scolding, Bai Lixin secretly observed the reactions of the people around him from the corner of his eyes.
The woman in black coldly stared at Bai Lixin, and even picked up a cup of tea, slowly scraping off the tea froth before taking a few sips.
The attitude of the surrounding people was even more interesting. Each had a completely nonchalant attitude.
The wealthy man was not really in the hearts of these people.
Bai Lixin’s eyes were downcast, and a few strands of hair slid blocked his vision.
He was stunned, and only then did he discover that his hair was long.
It was so long that it was almost down to his waist.
He wanted to raise his hand to push back his hair when a soft clanging came from his wrists.
Bai Lixin lowered his head and found a thin pair of shackles on his wrists and ankles. In addition, he was wearing a set of coarse linen, similar to that of a prisoner.
“Hmm,” a dignified, mature female voice sounded. “Granny Mi, just a few words and you’ve managed to scare the child.”
The words were spoken by the woman in the black cheongsam, and as soon as she finished, the old woman known as “Granny Mi” stopped her insults and obediently stood behind her.
“Heh, how rare and unusual.” An enchanting female voice suddenly rang out. Bai Lixin didn’t move his head but looked over from the corner of his eye. He found that the words were spoken by a woman sitting on the left hand side of the one in the black cheongsam.
“The tiger is not at home, so the monkey calls itself king.” The woman was enchanting, and she spoke lazily. “The Madam died three years ago. Who is the madam you are talking about in this large Li residence? Could it be that this crazy woman is planning to invoke her soul and hook her out of the underworld to preside over the Lord’s matters?”
Bai Lixin noticed that when the woman said “the madam died three years ago,” several people’s faces were obviously not right.
Among them was the woman in the black cheongsam, and Granny Mi behind her.
The enchanting woman clucked her tongue. “You say the child is scared, but who is the one doing the abusive lynching? The woman doing the lynching is the one scolding and pretending to be a good person?”
“And “Madam”? She is far worse than the first madam of our Li family. Is she even worthy?”
“Hu Meier, shut your mouth!” The woman in the black cheongsam slapped the table and could not hold it down any longer. She stood up with the slap and her previous calm was gone.
She glared at the enchanting woman fiercely: “What good person? You repeatedly send the Li family’s things outside, so what place do you think this is? The vault for your gambler of a brother? If I find out that more of the family’s stuff has gone to that trash brother, I will immediately send you to the police station!”
The arrogant enchanting woman’s face stiffened. She clenched her teeth and gave a “hem”, but no longer dared to say a word.
“Aigoo, sisters, we are all family members, but why so much bickering? Didn’t the *flood wash away the Dragon King Temple? Harmony makes money, so sisters, don’t get angry.”
This time, it was a man’s voice. It was soft and gentle, but it was very uncomfortable for the ears.
Bai Lixin looked over and found a man sitting across from him. His face was painted with powder, and his original hard eyebrows were deliberately softened.
It gave some sense of incongruity, as if the man was deliberately squeezing it to give a soft and boneless look.
“Didn’t *Da ye write a letter? He said he’d come in a few days and start investigating the truth of the murder of the Lord.” The man continued to speak. He saw Bai Lixin looking at him and threw a wink towards him. Some powder fell from his face and onto the ground because of his movements.
Bai Lixin’s scalp tingled and his whole body got goosebumps.
“Who is he?” The black cheongsam woman spoke coldly. “He is just an adopted son and has been separated from the family for five years. That is an outsider. There has been no news for five years and he has not come home for so long. The Lord died and he suddenly sent a letter. Isn’t he eyeing the Lord’s property? I will not allow the family fortune to fall into the hands of that kind of wolf and ambitious man.”
Well, before the identities of the people in the house were clear, an “adopted son” was thrown into the mix.
He seems to be quite mysterious and hasn’t appeared in five years.
The next step will definitely be: Five years later, he returns wealthy, wearing a military uniform, and an army of 100,000 people!
While Bai Lixin’s brain was flying, there was the sound of rushing footsteps from behind him.
A servant pointed to the door behind him and stammered with panic, “Army…Army!”
Granny Mi yelled, “Army? What army? Look at this no-good servant. Hurry up and talk!”
The servant swallowed hard, “The Warlord’s people, there is a whole army outside!”
Several people’s faces abruptly changed, and they all stood up from their chairs.
Hu Meier looked at the woman in black cheongsam and said, “Sister, how can the warlord’s people come here? Our Li family is a clean family.”
The woman in the black cheongsam gritted her teeth and wished to stab Hu Meier with a knife.
This bitch. Where is the arrogance from earlier? Now that things are critical, you know to shrink back?
Just when she was about to bite the bullet and go out, the dark door in the distance was pushed open.
A tall man wearing a military cap, a green uniform, and a thick velvet cloak stepped on his military boots and came in with dozens of soldiers behind him.
The woman stared at the warlord in front of her blankly. When she saw his face, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief and tried to hook up a calm expression, “I wondered who it was. It turns out to be Uncle.”
“The momentum was so mighty and powerful, this village woman was almost scared to death.” She patted her chest with a pale face.
The man did not speak, and she dared not sit down.
The man strode across the threshold and stopped next to Bai Lixin.
Bai Lixin had his head lowered, so he could only see black military boots.
The boots were spotless and shiny, and the metal buckles on them vaguely illuminated his face.
Before Bai Lixin could seriously examine his face, a heavy thing was draped over him.
He turned and saw a dark green cloak draped over his shoulders.
The familiar breath also came along with the warm cloak.
All those present drew a breath of cold air when they saw the Uncle’s actions.
Bai Lixin’s heart moved slightly because he had already guessed the identity of this uncle.
“I heard that my father was killed and came in a hurry.” The man’s chilling voice rang out in the golden hall. The cold from it all but froze every person. “It seems that our family has divine detectives! I don’t need to do anything, they will sentence people for me!”
The woman in the black cheongsam was busy waving her hands. “No…he was the only one beside the Lord when he died. We were afraid that he would run away, so we locked him up. We are an ordinary group of people in the house. We don’t know how to solve cases.”
“Since that is the case, he will be left to me for now.” The man’s familiar voice continued to ring overhead, “Father sent me a letter not long ago, telling me that he bought a worker from the brothel.”
“He told me to come and take a look, as he intended to support him as the madam of the Li family.”
The crowd was stunned, and it was another blow.
The madam?
This qing guanren??
Was the Lord crazy? What kind of bewitching soup did this fox give the Lord?
“Impossible!” The woman in the black cheongsam shouted. “Where is the proof?”
The man in the military uniform was cold, “I am the Governor of Fengcheng. Can’t my words be considered as proof?”
The crowd was shocked.
Fengcheng governor? So he was the Fengcheng Governor who had just taken office!
Bai Lixin was still watching the show when he suddenly felt a lightness in his body and was held in someone’s arms.
It was only then that he saw the man’s face.
Dijia’s face was cold and stern. The strong bone structure, coupled with the military uniform, made the whole person look like a sharp sword, which was intimidating.
Bai Lixin blinked at him.
Dijia then called out, “Mom.”
Bai Lixin: “……”
What the hell!
Mom literature?
