I Beat Up Npcs in a Bizarre World

40: Chapter 40: The Mystery of the Old House (Part Fourteen)The little green sprout swayed its body, exceptionally excited.

”Master, Master, I feel like my power has increased again.”

”Heehee, thank you for the gift, Master.”

”Then you must protect me well from now on.”

Hu Tao watched Qian Ye fiddling with the little green sprout in the flower pot again, still talking to it, his expression complex.

As expected of a big shot; her world is not something ordinary people can decipher.

”Guest, you... seem like you shouldn’t... be appearing here.”

The sudden voice startled Hu Tao. He turned his head and saw the so-called Uncle Bai, though he didn’t know when he had appeared.

Uncle Bai gave an unwilling bow to Qian Ye, his face twisted to the extreme.

Everything that happened last night was still fresh in his memory.

He still remembered the ancestor saying that seeing her in the future was like seeing the ancestor himself, so he should be respectful.

Thinking of this, Uncle Bai wished he could devour this damned human on the spot.

He didn’t know what kind of trickery she had used to bewitch the ancestor.

”Your ancestor said you should be respectful to me. How about you kowtow?”

Qian Ye was brimming with malice.

She still remembered how he wanted to kill her last night.

”You... you are... joking...”

His aggrieved appearance successfully pleased Qian Ye.

”Yo, Butler Bai is actually still alive.”

Out of the corner of her eye, Qian Ye saw a glimpse of a suit in the corner of the corridor.

Exposed on the spot, Butler Bai put on a stiff smile.

”Hello, Guest.”

He had originally thought he would see Uncle Bai teach her a lesson, but instead, he saw him being so respectful toward her.

Thinking about how long the road to revenge would be, Butler Bai’s face turned livid.

”Tsk tsk, I thought you came to take revenge on me~”

Butler Bai’s brow twitched, and he waved his hands repeatedly, ”How could that be? You are a distinguished Guest.”

He had worked so hard to recover his flesh and blood; he didn’t dare to cause trouble for the time being.

Persimmons should still be picked by the soft ones.

This one is too hard; I can’t pinch it.

Uncle Bai was still making a gesture of invitation.

He was determined to escort her and Hu Tao away from the main entrance.

Looking at Uncle Bai’s battered and broken face, Qian Ye curled her lips into a smile.

”As it happens, I still have some things I need to ask Uncle Bai about.”

This statement instantly made Uncle Bai stiffen.

At this moment, he regretted why he had agreed to Butler Bai’s request to invite this god of plague.

”I... *cough cough*, my body... is unwell, I’m afraid I cannot answer your questions...”

Qian Ye extended a finger and waved it from side to side in front of her.

”No, no, no. I think this is a question that perhaps only you can answer.”

”I...”

With a ”pfft” sound, Uncle Bai felt a pain in his abdomen.

The next instant, Qian Ye retracted her umbrella and elegantly wiped the bloodstains off its tip.

”I’m not the type of person who likes to force others. Come, I didn’t hear you clearly just now; say it again.”

Watching Uncle Bai also curling up, clutching his stomach, Butler Bai subconsciously protected his own abdomen, feeling as if his own was starting to ache as well.

Uncle Bai covered his abdomen, regretting it completely now; it was a situation of losing both the wife and the army.

”Have you thought about how to say it?”

Before the words had even faded, the tip of the umbrella was pressed against the outside of his abdomen again, ”Uncle Bai surely doesn’t want me to let you experience what it means to be alive again, right!”

”You...” Uncle Bai covered his abdomen, his face twisted; he hadn’t expected that one day he would be controlled by a junior.

”Uncle Bai, is your body still feeling unwell now~”

”If... still... I can for free...”

”No! Need!”

”Already... well.”

These words seemed squeezed out from between his teeth, one by one, showing his utter unwillingness.

Seeing them unhappy made Qian Ye excited.

Humming a little tune, she led them away. The secret on the door had been resolved; it wasn’t a loss at all.

Hu Tao bit the bullet and followed by Qian Ye’s side. Seeing that she didn’t object, he followed her with peace of mind.

He also wanted to know what these ”some things” were.

Qian Ye led them directly outside the ancestral hall courtyard. Hu Tao looked at it, seeing yet another unfamiliar place.

Why was this place so remote, and why did she always insist on going to remote places?

Uncle Bai and Butler Bai stepped in first, and then Qian Ye walked in. In an instant, the bamboo forest on both sides of the road rustled.

Butler Bai, who was in front, turned his head, his eyes suddenly showing ferocity, his tone eerie, ”The Guest is too disobedient; let’s teach her a lesson.”

Suddenly, the rustling of the bamboo leaves became more intense, as if in response.

Qian Ye sighed; they really were troublesome.

Qian Ye walked unhurriedly to the bamboo forest, her eyes dangerous. She selected a bamboo stalk and gently traced its body with her fingertip, ”Are you sure you want to teach me...”

The last time she destroyed a bamboo forest was at... oh, she remembered, her boyfriend’s courtyard.

The aura emitted by this bamboo forest was the same as that one.

The bamboo leaves shook, the leaves subconsciously shrinking inward, trembling slightly.

She had the aura of someone who had slaughtered their kind, and an extremely dangerous aura, which made them dare not act rashly.

Seeing this, Butler Bai’s expression changed. The next second, he hurried to run deep into the ancestral hall, but how could Qian Ye give him another chance?

With the red singer in her hand, he was instantly reduced to ashes.

”Isn’t it better to just be a good ghost~” He just had to court death.

Qian Ye cast a glance at Uncle Bai with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile. The hair on his body stood on end, and his legs, which had wanted to flee, were fixed in place.

”Uncle Bai is more sensible.” Qian Ye patted the bamboo in her hand. Instantly, the bamboo leaves stopped rustling, becoming as quiet as if they didn’t exist.

”Please.”

Hu Tao, like a background wall, followed mechanically by Qian Ye’s side.

Uncle Bai led the way to the ancestral hall. As soon as Hu Tao entered, a chill suddenly ran down his back. With a ”whoosh” sound, the door was shut.

He hurried to pull the door, but after pulling for a long time, it didn’t budge.

”B-Big shot, we’ve been locked in again.”

This scene pulled him back to the memories of yesterday; how familiar it was.

Thinking of the dense tentacles, Hu Tao’s body trembled.

”Big shot, it wouldn’t be...”

Hu Tao looked around vigilantly. The candles in the ancestral hall were still burning. He looked at the spirit tablets, feeling even more creeped out.

Qian Ye stared at Uncle Bai with composure. By now, his back was no longer hunched, and his cane was gone.

His stooped body slowly straightened. Qian Ye’s gaze followed his straightening waist until she had to look up at him.

Good heavens, this was no stooped little old man; he was clearly a two-meter-tall burly man.

Those tightly closed eyes snapped open.

What a pair of eyes they were; one eye resembled a snake’s vertical pupil, staring at you coldly.

The other was bulging, with a dark green eyeball that kept spinning incessantly.

Seeing this, Qian Ye looked disgusted, ”Do you really have to be this ugly?”

She had originally been marveling at his height, but paired with those strange eyes, he truly looked indescribable.

She liked cute things; this thing was an immediate rejection based on ugliness.

Hu Tao’s eyes widened to the maximum. He swallowed, secretly looking around the room; this narrow space was hard to hide in.

Uncle Bai stretched out completely, his face twisted, his whole body turning into entwined vines, looking down at the two, ”Those who disrespect the ancestors, die!”

”Die!”

”Die!”

In an instant, a gloomy wind arose, and the candles flickered incessantly. The next moment, the spirit tablets also shook rhythmically.

The tattered curtains hanging above were quietly growing, becoming longer and longer.

Uncle Bai’s one eye kept spinning. Seeing this, a flash of triumph crossed the corners of his mouth.

With a ”whoosh, whoosh, whoosh” sound,

The curtains shot out from behind toward Qian Ye and the others. Suddenly, the curtains came alive, attacking them incessantly.
