"6 bombs!"
"I can't afford it."
'Whoosh!'
"8 bombs!"
"I can't afford it."
'Whoosh!'
"A bomb!"
"I can't afford it."
'Whoosh!'
"Double flight!"
"You can handle it! You can handle it! Three bombs!"
I finally won a game, now I can stab them in the back, right?
Matsushita was about to get up immediately after his first kill.
"What are you doing?"
The two sisters were puzzled; the game wasn't even over yet, so why did Matsushita, who had just won the first round, stand up?
"I'm older than you, it's my turn to stab you, you turn around!"
"Uh, I didn't say I didn't want 10 bombs!"
Matsushita's first kill:
Before the game was even over, Matsushita's first kill was already at its last gasp.
pity.
Nobody sympathized with him. It's better that someone like him died in a ghost story; it's just a pity for innocent people.
What, you're saying he's from the cherry blossom family?
Oh, that's alright then~
The live stream went black, but system announcements still sounded in real time.
[The Chosen One of the Cherry Blossom Country: Matsushita's First Kill, Challenge (Stepmother's Note) Failed.]
[An eerie event will occur in 120 seconds, descending upon the city of Minggu House, and will last for 48 hours.]
Perhaps he wasn't entirely useless.
His role is to ensure that you never go to your stepmother's room at night, unless you're very good at playing cards.
Perhaps it's because I haven't had a proper rest in a long time, or perhaps it's because last night's storm really helped me sleep.
Jiang Xiao didn't wake up until noon the next day.
I thought it was lunchtime, but it turns out they're still busy outside.
"Come on, come on, come on in, come on in! Oh no! A little to the left, don't touch it!"
Fei Yu was directing the workers outside to carry the fireplace inside.
He only smiled when he saw Jiang Xiao come out.
"Well, our winters are very cold, so air conditioning isn't very useful, therefore..."
“It’s okay, stepmother. You can pretend to be whatever you want. You don’t need to explain to me. If you don’t have enough money, just tell me.”
"Okay, okay, that's enough for now."
As if she had thought of something, Fei Yu changed the subject.
"By the way, Jiang Xiao, that old Wang who came last time, he has a mysterious family heirloom. Go and buy it for Mom."
Jiang Xiao nodded, took Lao Wang's address, and set off immediately.
Chapter 304 Old Wang's Family Heirloom
Because, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Old Wang will be unable to pass the message any further.
If Jiang Xiao's place is already quite remote, then Lao Wang's place is probably even outside the boundaries of Guanxi Town.
It was just an ordinary, shabby farmhouse courtyard, with some vegetables growing in the open space inside.
Well?
This old guy is sunbathing.
Well, this pose is just a bit odd.
Jiang Xiao had seen all sorts of strange sunbathing poses from the uncles and aunts in the green mountains.
But we pulled down the gate to let the birds out to bask in the sun.
To be honest, this was the first time Jiang Xiao had ever met him.
Hearing the commotion outside, Old Wang shifted his gaze away from the cross-section of his Kiel.
When they saw the devil outside the door smiling and about to walk over.
Old Wang's first reaction was to run.
My second thought was that I couldn't outrun him.
The third reaction was that he had already knelt on the ground.
＿|￣|○
"Brother, haha, what brings you to my messy little courtyard? I, I didn't go looking for your house! Ever since I got back yesterday, I've been thinking that I'll never go looking for the Fei sisters again in my life."
Jiang Xiao waved his hand, signaling him not to kneel.
"I'm not here to beat you up today, I want to talk to you about serious business."
Are you here to discuss business?
Old Wang's heart sank.
Only then did he remember that Fei Yu and her sister had promised him yesterday that they would teach this kid a lesson.
How come?
Damn it, these two sisters are putting on an Infernal Affairs-style drama for me?!
In Lao Wang's guess, Fei Yu must have felt that dealing with Jiang Xiao was too risky, so it would be better to just send him over to forcibly seize his family heirloom!
Despite thinking this to himself, Old Wang remained polite on the surface.
"Brother, what business are you here to discuss? I'm just an old man, I don't have anything that you would be interested in."
"family heirloom."
It was concise yet carried an unquestionable tone.
"Brother, I was just kidding yesterday. I don't have any family heirlooms. If I did, would I be living here? Come and see what I had for breakfast."
Old Wang ran into the filthy kitchen, picked up a small basin, and quickly ran out.
"Look at this, we only had corn porridge for breakfast, not even any solid food. I haven't even made lunch yet. The main problem is that we have nothing to eat at home. Brother, I'm really poor. If I had any family heirlooms or something, I would have sold them long ago to improve our lives."
"So, you didn't have any family heirloom at all, and you were lying to my stepmother?"
what?
"I... I really didn't, but it was just a joke, so it shouldn't be considered lying, right?"
Old Wang said somewhat uncertainly.
Jiang Xiao nodded.
“That’s right. You might not qualify here, but as the saying goes, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Now that I’ve come to your Guanxi Town, you should naturally follow my customs. In our area, someone like you would be considered a fraudster, and we would have to stab you in the chest forty-nine times, avoiding vital organs with each cut, and while you’re still breathing, we would put you and a stone weighing several tens of kilograms into a cage and sink you into the river.”
At first, Old Wang had a smile on his face, but it gradually froze.
No, is this how you "when in Rome, do as the Romans do"?
"Haha, brother, I was just joking with you. A family heirloom? Yes, yes! I'll get it for you right now!"
Old Wang rushed into his bedroom again, and soon came out carrying a pillow.
"Look, this is a family heirloom! It's been passed down from my great-grandfather's generation. Look at all the hair oil and ash on it. It's no exaggeration to say it's IP68 waterproof!"
Jiang Xiao:
"I sincerely want to do business with you. If you dare to play me for a fool again, then I'll play you for a fool too."
"Brother, believe me! You have to believe me! This is our Wang family heirloom. If I'm lying to you, may I be childless and never sleep with a woman in my life!"
What a poisonous oath!
Old Wang happened to be one of them, so Jiang Xiao wasn't buying it.
