God’s Love Game [unlimited]-Chapter 26.1 - Tian Yan Clan - Lonely Island: Departure

Chapter 26.1: Departure 

Several missionaries stared blankly at the beautiful young man who was playing with the snake and watched helplessly as the white snake he knocked on the head grabbed the fingers of Xiangnu’s left hand like a swift lightning bolt.

Xiangnu stopped laughing, pursed his lips, and looked at the white snake quietly, the white snake’s ruby-like bright vertical pupils looked back not to be outdone.

The atmosphere suddenly froze, but it didn’t stagnate for too long. White Snake spat out Xiangnu’s fingers and turned his head angrily.

Although people couldn’t understand the expression of the snake, everyone could feel the genuine anger of the white snake.

Obviously, White Snake was provoked by Xiangnu’s actions just now. Although he didn’t do anything in the end, he was provoked.

Xiangnu did not panic, raised the white snake’s coiled right hand, gently placed the index finger of his left hand under the white snake’s head, kissed the white snake’s head with his thin pink lips, like a butterfly, and then using the pair of watery bright bright eyes of the light looked at him with joy, making it hard not to feel happy.

Mr. Yu was annoyed by Xiangnu’s actions. He knew that he did it on purpose, but looking at Xiangnu’s beautiful face, which was more delicate than a flower, it was difficult for him to be really ruthless.

In the end, the white snake stopped looking at Xiangnu and went straight around Xiangnu’s wrist, closed his eyes, and ignored him.

The shovels that Xiangnu had brought out had already been shared equally by everyone. After discussing it with everyone, they glanced at the villager who was hiding behind the door and secretly watching them and went to Xishan to dig up the corpses with their skulls in hand.

However, before taking two steps, a few people stopped. After two houses in front of this villager’s house was the old man’s house.

At this moment, several people were walking towards the west mountain. Unless they go back to the east and walk around the backyard, they will inevitably pass the old man’s house.

At this moment, the old man led the black dog and stood in the center of the yard, staring at them quietly. The black dog also looked at them. The strange thing was that the dog didn’t bark this time, and looked at them in a friendly way, even wagging its tail and spitting its tongue.

Several missionaries stood silently on the spot and stared at the old man for a few seconds. Xiangnu was thoughtful, and his fingers lightly stroked the white snake’s head, causing the white snake to stare faintly, but Xiangnu didn’t feel it.

Xiangnu retracted his gaze from the old man, and said lightly, “Time is running out, let’s get back to business.”

A few people set out and were about to continue to advance to the West Mountain. The old man saw that they were leaving, and said abruptly, “The disciples are leaving without even greeting the master after seeing him?”

“Do you still have me, your master in your eyes… do you all have even a little bit of respect for this teacher?” The old man said gloomily behind them.

Several people stopped and looked at each other, then bowed to the old man with meaning, and called ‘Master’.

The old man asked coldly, “Where are you going? Xiao Yao, have you prepared the mutton for the evening banquet? It’s past noon now, and you don’t have much time.”

Xiangnu’s eyes dimmed, and he said faintly, “Master, just wait at night, this disciple will definitely prepare a big surprise for you.”

The old man sneered and didn’t ask any further questions. Afraid that the old man would ask more questions, after walking about ten steps to make sure that the old man would no longer care about them, the few people stopped looking at him and walked towards the west mountain.

The old man’s laughter came from behind suddenly, and he said, “Xishan is a place where corpses are transformed. Disciples, don’t go to Xishan.”

The expressions of several taskers froze, and when they looked back, the old man had already led the black dog to the yard.

They didn’t know whether the old man’s words were true or not, but the missionaries still felt heavy in their hearts and inexplicably panicked.

Xiangnu did not speak and continued to move forward with a few people with sullen face, returning to the desolate and dry western mountain.

Looking at the few talisman papers that were half emerging from the ground, everyone couldn’t help but worry.

Ding Zeming asked in a deep voice, “Little Junior Brother, shall we continue digging?”

Xiangnu nodded slowly, “Go ahead, face it early, and end it early.”

What Xiangnu said also makes sense. The rhythm of this dungeon world was relatively fast. Even if there is danger, the taskers can only face the difficulty, and they can avoid the first day, but not the fifteenth.

The six people discussed it and made several precautionary plans.

One was that the talisman paper was beneficial to them and could suppress the corpse type. In this case, the tasker must ensure the integrity and utility of the talisman paper.

One was the harmful type of talisman paper. Once the body is dug up, if something goes wrong with the talisman paper attached, the talisman paper must be destroyed in time.

The latter situation was not unfounded by the taskers. After all, the maker of this talisman is nine times out of ten was the old man. Who knows if the old man has left any traps on the talisman and will harm them in turn?

After reaching the west mountain, Ding Zeming pointed out the area they had previously divided to Miao Dong and Shu Jian, and then a few people started to move the shovels, ready to dig out the villager’s bodies buried.

Xiangnu also wanted to help, but the white snake that Mr. Yu transformed into was coiled on his hand so that there was no room for Xiangnu’s hand to move freely, Xiangnu was helpless and gently persuaded the white snake: “Mr. Yu, I want to dig something, It will affect my work when you are in my hands, can you go elsewhere?”

White Snake obviously heard and opened his eyes, but deliberately shook his head and refused to listen, obviously ‘retaliating’ for Xiang Nu’s previous action.

Xiangnu laughed secretly, but he wasn’t annoyed, he just thought the petty Mr. Yu was very cute.

Miao Dong said, “Hey, little junior brother, if it’s not convenient for you to work, forget it, just sit next to us and take a rest, just to analyze the situation for us and see what we do next.”

Xiangnu thought for a while, picked up the skull wrapped by Shu Jian, and pondered, “Alright, but I feel that at this step, our clues are basically clear, as long as we proceed step by step, customs clearance is only a matter of time.”

Xiangnu paused for a while and then added, “Provided that Master doesn’t get violent and our safety is guaranteed. But it’s not very likely. If Master can’t sit still and let us mess up, since what he said to us just now, It can be seen that Xishan is a land of corpses…”

“In short, hurry up and dig, and then we will leave. If you stay for a long time, there is a high chance of accidents.”

Everyone’s heart was heavy, and the movements of their hands did not dare to stop. Xiangnu held the skull in a daze, and even Mr. Yu didn’t notice that Mr. Yu climbed to the skull wrapped in his hand. Mr. Yu crawled into the skull wrapped in his hand and nestled there without him noticing.

At present, Xiangnu and the others have found several mutation points in the copy, such as Qiuyuan and Xishan. But it’s not clear why these locations appear, which is what they really need to probe.

But after they return the bodies to the villagers, there may be significant progress.

Xiangnu waited, The efficiency of the five people digging together was very fast, and there was also the reason that the villagers’ bodies were not buried deeply.

A few people dug the corpse out of the ground even with soil and paper. When digging, they were frightened, for fear that the corpse would suddenly mutate and pop out of the soil that was about to fall apart for them.

Fortunately, the corpses of the villagers have always been calm, and there was no abnormality.

The six of them didn’t dare to linger, they dug up the body and dragged the body around another circle, avoiding the old man’s house to find the villagers.

And the white snake was now in the hands of the slave again, quiet and well-behaved.

The six people came to the door of the villagers, and Xiangnu knocked on the door holding the skull. After seeing his body, the villagers couldn’t wait to open the door, and their eyes were full of longing.

When Xiangnu stopped in front of the villagers, the villagers were very anxious. They wanted to push Xiangnu but didn’t dare, so they could only look at him hastily and urge: “Get out of the way, let me pass.”

Xiangnu asked, “There is a talisman on your body, is it harmful, do you want us to take it off for you?”

The villager was creeped out by the news, his grayish-white skin actually managed to become even more obscure, he nodded his head in a hurry and said, “Yes, yes, yes.”

Xiangnu said lightly: “That’s fine, answer me some questions first. After you answer, we will give you the body and take off the talisman paper for you.”

The villager was not happy and hissed in a low voice, “Give it to me, I promised you that I would answer you one question!”

“How can one question be enough, after all, I have so many doubts.” Xiangnu said quietly, “Not to mention, how do I know you’re not lying to me? What if you take the body and then back out?”

The villager hated him extremely, but that little brain capacity could not allow him to come up with any countermeasures. In the end, he could only stare at those gray eyes and said with hatred: “You ask!”

Xiangnu untied the package in his hand, and the white skull inside flew out.

Xiangnu asked, “Can we wear this skull on our head? Is it dangerous?”

The villagers were stunned for a moment after seeing the skull, with a blank expression on their faces. After a while, they said, “Mr. Xuanji is a good man, different from the kind of reputation-fishing scoundrels like XuanYin, of course, there is no danger in wearing his skull.”

The taskers were in a good mood, excited to the point that they were about to get the complete clues and prepare to clear the level. They looked at the villagers with burning eyes.

Seeing that the villager was quite cooperative, Xiangnu couldn’t help but breath a sigh of relief, and asked in high spirits, “Then what will happen after we put on Mr. Xuanji’s skull?”

The villagers looked at Xiangnu inexplicably, “I haven’t worn it before, how do I know?”

Xiangnu quickly changed a question: “Is Xuanyan our master? Mr. Xuanji is our uncle, how did he die? How did you… and the group of corpses on the Western Hills die.”

The villagers’ expressions became gloomy, their gray complexions became darker and darker, and there were faint signs of mutation. Xiangnu took his changes into his eyes and pointed at the villagers, “I can guess it without saying it, and it must have something to do with our master, right? You died at the hands of the master while you were alive, and the master knew Taoism. After you die, you are suppressed by him. You will never have a chance for revenge by yourself. But if you tell us all your secrets If so, we have a chance to avenge you.”

Xiangnu gently held Xuanji’s skull, “Mr. Xuanji’s bones are proof.”

The villagers looked at Xiangnu gloomily and said slowly, “These two gentlemen are not from our village. They suddenly appeared when every household was about to starve to death after a severe drought for two or three years. After they settled down in the village, the two gentlemen summoned a heavy rain, and then they were enshrined by the village chief, and we all respected the two gentlemen very much.”

“It was fine at first, but after a long time, everyone found that the two gentlemen were not in a good relationship. The two of them were always arguing. There was no problem with Mr. Xuanji, and it was usually Mr. Xuanyan who picked the topic first.”

“One day, Mr. Xuanyan suddenly called the village chief and wanted to hold a sacrifice, which he and Mr. Xuanji would preside over together. After the sacrifice, Mr. Xuanyan joked that he wanted to make a bet with Mr. Xuanji… that is, on the morning of the ceremony, he asked Mr. Xuanji to calculate what he had for lunch, and if the calculation was wrong, he would ask Mr. Xuanji to have a glass of wine.”

“Mr. Xuanji didn’t understand what he meant and also felt that this kind of problem couldn’t be figured out and didn’t take it seriously. After ordering the steamed buns, Mr. Xuanyan deliberately took a mouthful of porridge on purpose and then asked Mr. Xuanji to accept the bet and drink a sip of wine. The gentleman was unprepared and drank the wine directly.”

“I never thought that there was actually sleeping medicine in the wine, and Mr. Xuanji fell asleep after drinking it. Then, then…”

Speaking of this, the villagers trembled involuntarily as if recalling something extremely terrifying, and it took a while for him to finish the sentence, he swallowed his saliva and said in fear, “Then Mr. Xuanyan took a pig-killing knife directly, he actually dismembered Mr. Xuanji alive, we were all stunned at the time, no one reacted, and no one stopped him.”

“That’s not all, after the dismemberment, Mr. Xuan Yan even used our village’s three years of drought as a reason to take Mr. Xuan Yan’s meat and boil it up as congee to entertain us …….”

The expressions of the six taskers changed, recalling the experience in the morning, if they answered the question wrong at that time, it is estimated that they would have been directly dismembered by the old man Xuanyan.

The villager said dumbly, “We have always loved Mr. Xuanji, and we would never eat Mr. Xuanji’s flesh. After rejecting it, there were still a lot of temperamental people who turned around and beat Mr. Xuanyan on the spot.”

Beat the old man Xuanyan? The ending of those was probably a bit miserable, the old man was not a good guy at first glance, and maybe he got a bloody revenge.

The villager’s body was buried in the place where the old man’s corpse changed. Nine times out of ten, he was one of the people who beat the old man with a violent temper.

“Later Xuanyan was furious, and he again used magic, and then the drought came to our village again.”

“In order to quell Xuanyan’s anger, everyone immediately surrendered. The village chief took everyone to eat Mr. Xuanji’s meat. Mr. Xuanyan was not satisfied. Later, in the name of praying for rain, he attacked those who beat him. Seventy-seven forty-nine nail pieces soaked in human blood were nailed to the head, limbs, and torso, and finally buried alive…”

“That’s all there is to it.”

Xiangnu looked at the wooden villagers in front of him, slowly looked away, and said softly, “What about Qiuyuan, Is that specially used to suppress Mr. Xuanji? By the way, your village used to be an isolated island?”

The villagers were bewildered, “I don’t know what Qiuyuan is. It wasn’t there before. An island? Our village was not an isolated island before.”

The villager looked at Xiangnu pleadingly, and begged, “Can you return the body to me? Please help me take off the talisman.”

Xiangnu waved his hand, and after listening to the villagers’ description, the other taskers felt a little soft-hearted towards him, but in the end, people did not dare to get too close to him. He patted the dirt off his body, then took off the talisman paper on his body, and jumped far away.

The villager didn’t look at them, walked to the corpse with blood and tears, buried themselves in the corpse, and merged with the corpse.

Seven hundred and seventy-nine iron nails vibrated in unison, gradually being ejected as the villagers’ souls merged into the body.

“Ding.”

A clear ringing sound appeared in the ears of the six taskmasters, reminding them that their quest for the duplicate had been completed. They could leave at any time, as long as there were no ghosts around to stop them.

The six missionaries were very pleasantly surprised by this. After there was no danger to their lives, Zhong Liyun couldn’t help but soften and muttered, “What this villager said seems to be true, and what happened to them sounds too pitiful, we will help them in a while. Dig up the corpses and send them back as a side quest.”

Xiangnu looked at the front with a solemn expression, “I’m afraid…it’s too late.”
