"Ah, this is life!"
The sun was high up in the sky, and it was less than half an hour away from noon. It was the time when the sun was at its most poisonous. At this time, most people were hiding at home or in shady places.
However, in a small courtyard in the capital, a young man who looked to be in his early twenties was lying on a rocking chair. He felt the rocking of the rocking chair as he stretched.
"Ding! Host, please stop wasting time and complete the mission issued by the system as soon as possible.”
Perhaps it was because it was noon, but the most bustling capital had fallen into a rare and short silence.
Therefore, this voice that appeared out of thin air and was so cold that one could not hear the slightest emotion was even more terrifying.
The man was just about to pick up a cup of tea from a three-legged nanmu table next to the rocking chair when he was startled by the sudden voice.
His hand trembled slightly, and the tea splattered, slightly wetting a corner of his sleeve.
However, this man seemed to be used to it. It seemed that the voice was only startled by the sudden appearance of the voice. The next moment, he reacted and wiped the water stains on his sleeve with a dissatisfied expression.
"No, I'm not begging you to stop repeating yourself now. I'm just begging you not to do this all of a sudden. It's really scary, okay?”
"Since you have become my carrier and have been chosen by me, you have to shoulder the responsibility.”
As soon as the man finished speaking, the voice that appeared out of thin air sounded again.
"So you're still blaming me? My life is pretty good now. Why do I have to do those life-threatening business jobs that compete with the dead? Are you looking for trouble?"
After hearing the voice feed him poisonous chicken soup, the man wiped himself clean and picked up the cup of tea again. He put it to his mouth and blew gently to dissipate the heat. Then, he said as he tasted it.
" If it weren't for me, the host would have been dead by now. There wouldn't be these peaceful days. Wait a minute... I was the one who arranged the host's identity so that you could move around more easily. You..." Seeing that its host was very comfortable now and didn't want to disturb it for no reason, the system couldn't help but express its speechlessness.
After hearing the system's words, the man's lips could not help but curl up slightly. He did not say anything else. Seeing that he did not say anything, the system did not continue to persuade him.
The man's name was Gao Shou, and he wasn't originally from this world.
In the original world, it was roughly the same as this world. In that world, Gao Shou was only a dispensable character.
After leaving the orphanage, he entered society early. He ate the cheapest food and did the most tiring work. No one knew when he would suddenly disappear, and no one would care.
Similarly, Gao Shou, who lived in the dark under the light of society, also came into contact with countless things and people that could not be seen in the light, until one day, a man found him.
When Gao Shou first saw him, he was shocked by his appearance.
A layer of dry skin hidden under a layer of gray cloth that had already lost its color. The eyeballs that were spat out, along with the bloodless lips and the twisted nose that did not look like a human, were actually so terrifying!
He was so scared that he raised his legs and wanted to escape. However, he stopped when he heard an old voice that sounded like his throat was cut by a blade.
"I have a 10,000 yuan business deal here. I wonder if you'd like to consider it.”
This voice sounded like the temptation of the devil, but Gao Shou had no choice but to stop because he was too hungry.
He was so hungry that he did not know if he would die if he did not eat the next meal.
Therefore, after thinking for less than ten seconds, Gao Shou gritted his teeth and agreed without thinking about what would happen next.
The person who covered his body with the cloth was a grave robber. Although he looked like he was close to the age of burial, he was actually only in his early thirties. According to him, the reason why he looked like this was because he had come into contact with something dirty when he entered a tomb. His body organs aged rapidly and he looked like this in a short while.
The reason why he hired Gao Shou was because he was not very agile. He wanted to find a helper, and Gao Shou did not let him down. After some twists and turns, the two of them finally arrived at the main tomb where the funerary objects were placed. Gao Shou was also convinced by the means and methods of that person to crack the mechanism time and time again.
After taking out the funerary items, the person gave him 10,000 yuan in cash and left.
Although Gao Shou expressed that he wanted to follow him, he was rejected in the end.
Although he was rejected, Gao Shou looked at the large amount of cash in his hand. He had never seen so much money since he was young, so he gritted his teeth and went on alone.
Many years later, after Gao Shou had destroyed many dangerous tombs, he became somewhat famous in the circle, but he had never been able to make a name for himself.
Because Gao Shou also had a feeling that even the largest of these tombs could not compare to the one that the man had brought him to dig.
Fortunately, Gao Shou could not go hungry, and his days could be considered to be well-nourished.
Until one day, a man knocked on his door again and told Gao Shou that he had discovered an ancient tomb from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. The things inside would definitely allow him to live comfortably for ten years.
Although he only told Gao Shou about the profits from this trip, Gao Shou knew that the dangers inside were definitely not ordinary.
However, when it came to profits, Gao Shou gritted his teeth and agreed just like before.
Gao Shou couldn't remember what happened after that. He only remembered that Gao Shou and that man had found three or four other people to get some dirty things on them. Only that man and Gao Shou ran out. When they finally reached the main tomb, the owner of the tomb suddenly lied and slapped Gao Shou and the other man, sending them flying.
The force of this slap sent Gao Shou and the other two flying more than ten meters away. Gao Shou only felt a wave of dizziness in his head. After a wave of feeling of turning the world upside down, his body felt numb and powerless.
Before he died, Gao Shou only felt a white light cover the scene in front of him, and then he appeared here.
