"Hey, Master Xu, I heard you mention the word 'scheming' before?”
Qi Tie asked Xu Nian.
Seeing Xu Nian nod, Qi Tie continued,"I do know a few ways to trick people, but Master Xu, you just mentioned that this trick is related to the way you wear shoes?”
"Hmm…"
"The sinister people I'm talking about are those who do things for the King of Hell in the Yang Realm.”
"These people look like ordinary people on the surface. They need to eat and sleep, but they can talk to ghosts.”
"If you want to distinguish them, there's only one way. When they sleep, their shoes are placed under the bed, and the tips of their shoes are facing inward!”
Xu Nian said.
He had only mentioned it casually and did not have the intention to study it properly.
At this time, the adjutant and Zhang Qishan had already chased them into the village. As Xu Nian expected, the old man and the others naturally lost track of them.
"Master Xu, please excuse me. That old man knows this area very well. I suspect that he's from the village.”
Zhang Qishan pointed at the village and said apologetically.
Xu Nian was not in a hurry. He smiled and extinguished the cigarette butt. He said calmly,"If you can't catch up, take a break. That old man left his food here. How can he not come back?”
Zhang Qishan and the other two looked down. There was a pile of firewood under Xu Nian's feet, and at the bottom was an old, worn-out axe.
"Master Xu, it's hard to say, right? What if that old man doesn't come back…"
"If he doesn't come back, I'll take you to the mine!”
Xu Nian snorted and walked to the side, closing his eyes to rest.
On the other side, Qi Tiezui knew that he had said something wrong, so he didn't say anything else. He obediently followed Zhang Qishan and the adjutant to hide at the side.
About ten minutes later.
As expected, the sneaky old man appeared once again. He picked up the old axe nimbly. His eyes were filled with joy as he muttered something.
Qi Tie, who was hiding in the dark, nodded repeatedly and gave Xu Nian a thumbs up.
Reputation 5!
Reputation 5!
Reputation 5!
Upon hearing the system notification, 15 Reputation Points were added to his account!
Xu Nian nodded and appeared from the side, waving at Zhang Qishan and Qi Tie.
" There's something wrong with this old man. There's death aura on him…"
"Master Xu, are you saying that this old man is a dumpling?”
Qi Tie frowned and took out an old black donkey hoof from his pouch.
Zhang Qishan reluctantly stuffed it back into his mouth and said in a deep voice,""It's not a dumpling. It's the death aura that came into contact with the dead recently.”
The four of them were delayed for a moment before they quickly caught up with the old man.
The old man was walking at a fast pace, but the few of them felt that there was something strange about him. They couldn't explain it in a few words.
A few minutes later.
The four of them stood at the entrance of a courtyard. The door was wide open, but the door to the inner room was tightly shut.
Xu Nian grabbed Qi Tie's mouth and said,"Adjutant, keep an eye on Master Eight. Don't let him keep coming forward!”
"Master Xu is right!"
The adjutant nodded, looking a little ashamed.
Among the four of them, other than Qi Tiezui, who basically had no combat strength, Xu Nian and Zhang Qishan were simply monsters with terrifying combat strength. It was difficult to describe them with common sense.
Qi Tie pursed his lips and was about to speak.
Xu Nian and Zhang Qishan rushed into the courtyard and kicked open the two wooden doors of the house!
Bang!
Two wooden doors fell to the ground.
The old man was fiddling with something in the room when he was frightened by the sudden loud noise.
"Who are you? What are you doing?!”
"Sit down and don't move!"
Xu Nian slapped the old man so hard that he sat down on the chair. He lit a cigarette and put it in his mouth.
Qi Tie, who entered the door later, exclaimed and grabbed an old rifle on the table beside him. He fiddled with it a few times.
"Where did these things come from?"
"I-I-I…"
The old man rolled his eyes and whispered,"I picked them up."”
Qi Tie frowned and pushed his old rifle forward, cursing,"Do you think we're fools? Picked it up? Where did you pick it up from?!"
"Let's go and take a look."
Xu Nian nodded and pressed the old rifle in Qi Tiezui's hand.
Zhang Qishan scanned the furnishings in the room and his gaze lingered on the table for a few seconds.
Old backpack, shovel, old axe, rope…
Zhang Qishan was very familiar with these things.
These were probably the standard items for grave robbers. If they added the Luoyang shovel that could be used to explore tombs, they would be complete.
The old man was not stupid. He could tell at a glance that Zhang Qishan and the adjutant had the aura of a soldier. He did not dare to be negligent.
Xu Nian patted the old man's shoulder with a smile and said coldly,""Lead the way, you're not easy to talk to!”
