Unlimited job transfers starting from permanent worker

Chapter 19 Li Juhong

No, it won’t really be what I think.

These two little maids are so timid.

After a long while, the two maids lit the oil lamp again and looked at each other with expressions on their faces as if they were about to cry.

"Was there a dark shadow just now?"

"No, maybe we saw it wrong."

"Someone also slapped me on the head."

"No, it's all fake. There are no ghosts in this world."

"look……"

One of the maids pointed to the cage on the ground: "One bun is missing..."

"what!"

Loud screams rang out in the dark night.

At this time, Yang Liang had already stepped on the ridge of the roof and quietly left the yard.

He was also quite surprised that everyone was so timid.

If you think about it carefully, it is excusable.

Fear often comes from the unknown. The more ignorant you are, the easier it is to be afraid.

Nowadays, everyone's understanding of nature is still very shallow, and it is normal to be afraid of ghosts.

It's not like me. After all, I have received a materialistic education and know that there are no ghosts in this world.

but……

Since there are immortal cultivators in this world, there is really a question mark as to whether there are ghosts.

Thinking of this, Yang Liang couldn't help but shudder, as if the night wind blowing in front of him was no longer the night wind, but small hands scratching his body.

"what?"

Yang Liang hugged his arms tightly, thinking that if he scares himself, he will really scare himself to death, so we should leave quickly.

After going around in a circle, a gate appeared in front of him. Yang Liang raised his head and saw four big words written on the plaque: Long Luck.

Why did he come to the Niu family's ancestral hall again.

He thought about the little maid last night again. It had been a day and a night. Could she still be locked in there?

Logically speaking, no, but given the perverted character of the landowner's mother-in-law, she might not be able to do it.

Thinking of this, Yang Liang found a corner and climbed over in one step.

There were no lights in the ancestral hall. Looking through the crack in the door, it was dark inside. Occasionally, one or two spiritual tablets of the ancestors of the Niu family could be seen.

Yang Liang lay there and watched for a while, but didn't see any movement. He thought that the maid had probably been let out, otherwise if she was locked up here, she would be scared to death even if she didn't starve to death.

Just as he was about to leave, a weak voice suddenly sounded inside:

"Who, who is outside!"

Yang Liang didn't know how to answer. It was hard to admit that he was a thief.

He didn't say anything, just took out a steamed bun from his arms and quietly handed it over through the crack in the door.

Suddenly, a cold hand grabbed his wrist, and a pale face was stuck in the crack of the door.

For some reason, Yang Liang didn't have much fear, he just felt pity for this woman.

Now that I got closer, I realized that she was actually pretty, with a round face, no bigger than a palm, and a pair of dark, translucent eyes, but with a lot more indifference and vicissitudes of life.

If I had been a small anchor in my previous life, I would have had millions of fans instead of being locked up in an ancestral hall where I couldn't see my fingers.

The little maid also looked at him, sizing up the dark man. After a while, she uttered one word: "Thirsty."

Yang Liang has also experienced hardship and knows that thirst is more uncomfortable than hunger. He can endure it when he is hungry, but it is often unbearable when he is thirsty. "You wait here, I'll find you some water."

Yang Liang looked around and saw a water tank under the eaves, which was used for fire prevention.

At this moment, he didn't care whether it was clean or not. He held it with both hands and poured it into the woman's open mouth bit by bit.

Seeing her greedy look, Yang Liang couldn't bear it.

"What mistake did you make that she locked you up here?"

The woman shook her head and said nothing. She just tore the bun into pieces little by little, chewed it in her mouth, and then swallowed it.

"Since you don't want to say it, I'll come see you tomorrow, if you're still here."

Knowing that Yang Liang was looking for him, the woman turned her head, with a hint of reluctance in her eyes.She probably also knew that once Yang Liang left, she would be left alone in the darkness.

"Orange."

The woman looked at Yang Liangdao.

Yang Liang was startled, and then the woman repeated: "Li Juhong."

Only then did he suddenly realize that this was a woman’s name:
"Okay, I'll come see you tomorrow and bring you something to eat."

After that, Yang Liang returned along the original route, and not long after, he returned to the hay house.

He opened the system panel and looked at the task prompt he had obtained not long ago:
[Complete the challenge and receive skill reward: Fish Tail Step]

Fish Tail Walk: This is a superb footwork that allows you to swim like a fish under the water without making any sound. If you can master this skill skillfully, you will not be noticed even if you are following behind the target. Make it easier for you to become a thief.

Ok……

Yang Liang fell silent.

Being a thief yourself is just a temporary measure, a last resort, not a life-long goal.

It was late at night, and he was lying in the straw. For some reason, he always felt very uncomfortable.

After a long time, he finally fell asleep.

While sleeping, I heard the whistling of the wind. The weather had really changed. The wind was getting stronger and stronger, blowing continuously through Niujia Village.

The wind blew the tiles on the ground, and also blew a piece of straw paper on the tree. It was originally used to wrap medicinal materials. Looking out the study window.

When the little maid closed the window for the night, it sneaked in with the wind and landed on the desk.

Before dawn the next day, the wind turned into rain, and huge raindrops fell from the sky, crackling on the tiles, stirring up strings of mist.

After Niudizhu got up early in the morning, he took a bowl of decoction that he had cooked overnight. He felt a little warmer in his stomach and full of energy.

He was helped to the study room and looked through his copybooks and poetry collections he collected on weekdays.

Suddenly, he noticed a piece of straw paper on the table, and his face sank.

"The servants are becoming more and more unruly. How to deal with this? I think we should just drag them down and beat them to death."

The maid next to me quickly begged for mercy, saying that she had carefully packed it away and had not seen the piece of papyrus.

"That's nonsense. Then it flew out of thin air and scrawled on it." Niu Landlord was furious: "Slap me hard."

Liu Yuanting came after hearing the news. He was the miracle doctor invited from the county by the Niu family.

"Exceptor Niu, you just took the medicine, but you can't get angry."

"Mr. Liu, you don't know something. This study is where I usually study and write, and what I teach is all about the saints' principles of benevolence.

Look at these dirty servants, leaving this dirty papyrus here and scribbling on it. What are they doing? "

Mr. Liu took the tissue paper, subconsciously twitched his nose, and suddenly said: "This is not a painting, this is the smell of blood."

Then, he spread out the tissue paper, and when he saw the blood-red pattern on it, he was stunned. Then, he said in a tone of extreme fear:
"Black Butterfly, Black Butterfly is back!"
