man sanctified in death row vest

Chapter 13 [Second Act]

Dizi No. [-] Prison Camp.

When Zheng Xiu in the Jiazi prison opened his eyes, he subconsciously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, feeling lingering fear.

Not so.

Scared out of a myocardial infarction?
Zheng Xiu didn't know that Shi Wentong was overjoyed and then shocked, and took the tonic in advance.

When Shi Wentong kicked his legs and slid off the seat with foam at the mouth after screaming, Zheng Xiu immediately dived down into the ground, ended his [fugue travel], and returned to his original consciousness.

There was so much movement in the compartment, no matter how stupid the coachman was, he would immediately enter to check on Shi Wentong's safety.

Won't scare him to death?

Shi Wentong only had a happy banquet with himself during the day, and died in the carriage at night. If he really died, wouldn't he be suspicious of himself?

Although he, Mr. Zheng, has a sufficient alibi, but Zheng Xiu is also afraid of getting dirty if someone with a heart really wants to use this as an excuse.

"but……"

After struggling for a while, Zheng Xiu smiled and shook his head: "I, Mr. Zheng, have already been 'in trouble' to this point, what else can I do."

It's already late at night, and it's too conspicuous to let Erniang or his own staff go into the prison camp temporarily to make arrangements, so Zheng Xiu can only wait until tomorrow.

After wandering for the whole night, Zheng Xiu was more looking forward to the harvest after the "Gateway". He didn't know what kind of extraordinary abilities he could cultivate if he continued to go deeper into the "Gateway".

After resting for a while, Zheng Xiu closed his eyes and entered the prison.

Sitting on the white bone chair, staring at the sea-like mist outside the prison, thinking of Shi Wentong's tragic situation, although he would not feel guilty, but for this gray mist, Zheng Xiu felt a little more awe for no reason.

Anyway, hope everyone is okay.

Zheng Xiu lamented that one should still be like Mr. Zheng, with virtue and skill, and a clear conscience.

The map is spread out, and the little man waits quietly in the center.

Zheng Xiu looked at the location of Baili Village, the preserved egg-shaped color darkened a bit.

If the round black tent looked like a preserved egg at the beginning, then at this moment, it looks like a broken old preserved egg.

Stretching out his hand, the words that appeared in front of Zheng Xiu's eyes also changed into——

【White Carp Village·Second Act】

The yellowed scroll rolled and came to Zheng Xiu.

Zheng Xiu took it with a big hand and checked the current progress of himself and the avatar.

[Host]: [Zheng Xiu]

[Access]: [Prisoner]

【Derivative】:【Watching the Sky in Prison (First Glimpse of the Way)】【Spiritual Wandering (First Glimpse of the Way)】

[Talent]: [No business, no adultery (first glimpse)]

[Experience]: [White Carp's first search for secrets, the troubled times startled the storm (first entering the rivers and lakes)]

Among them, "Sit in prison and watch the sky" and "No business, no adultery" are still in the realm of "first glimpse".

[Mind Tour] is similar to [Sit in Prison and Watch the Sky] in terms of ability description.

[Watching the Sky in Prison] Allows Zheng Xiu to enter ghosts in the prison.

【Fantasy Travel】It allows Zheng Xiu to travel around the world in the form of A Piao.

Zheng Xiu felt that there was a contradiction hidden in it.

【Prisoner】The way, on the one hand, it requires him to stay in the prison, but on the other hand, it tries every means to let him break out of the cage.

"First Glimpse" is just the beginning. If it continues to improve, Zheng Xiu guesses, maybe the next step is the [Misty Wandering] posture.

After a little guessing and longing, the long night was long, and Zheng Xiu planned to stay up all night, so Zheng Xiu didn't waste any time, his mind was concentrated, and the macho painter [Zheng Shan] on the table opened his eyes.

……

【Name】Zheng Shan

【Birth】Painter

[Age] 32 (in the prime of life)
【Muscle Strength】Twenty (Kong Wu is powerful)

[Footwork] Ten (dexterous and keen)
【Physical】Eleventh (Yangsheng and healthy)
[Appearance] 36 (handsome, extraordinary, unparalleled in the world)
[Will] 32 (loyal, staunch, rock-solid)
[Air Luck] Eleven (Little Blessing)
【Physical】Twenty (huggy back)

【Knowledge】Twelve (Bo but not fine)
[Trait] Detective (slight understanding of superficiality), medical theory (slight understanding of superficiality), intuition (slightly accomplished), deterrence (slight understanding of superficiality)

……

When re-entering [White Carp Village], after Zheng Xiu killed Li Dahammer resolutely and swiftly, Xiaoxiao was frightened by the arrogance unintentionally exuded, and turned into the enlightened trait [Shock].

[Shock and awe (slightly understand the fur)]: At a specific time, the invisible aura you exude may scare the opponent to pieces, making you win without a fight, but this rarely happens.

To put it simply, it is possible to scare the enemy with the face, but the probability still depends on the face.

As the saying goes, having too many skills doesn't overwhelm your body, and talking is better than nothing.Watching the avatar grow gradually, the joyful mood is like allowing little Zheng Xiu to bathe in the sunshine and nectar, and grow strong.

It stands to reason that Zheng Xiu, who has become the richest man, has been able to face many things without showing emotion, but the "ghosts" and his party made Mr. Zheng regain his original aspirations, as if returning to his childhood.

Pain and happiness.

A sense of dizziness struck, and Zheng Xiu stepped into a ghost.

Just as he was about to spend a few minutes running over to brush Li Dahammer quickly, and then enter Baili Village, the dense fog cleared away, and a narrow tree-lined path led to the depths, with water droplets hanging on the branches on both sides, together with Zheng Xiu's clothes were wet everywhere.

Zheng Xiu looked blankly at the beginning of the game, ignoring the seepage of his wet clothes, and looked around, but he didn't see the official road of bandits who had walked hundreds of times.

"Saved, archived?"

This is the so-called second act?
In the distance, there are lights, and it seems that there are people.

There should be the real Baili Village.

Zheng Xiu remembered the last reminder before "going deep into the doorway".

【You realize that once you move forward, it will be difficult for you to turn back. 】

Very... Difficult?

How hard is it?
Zheng Xiu didn't believe in evil, so he turned around and returned.

The rain stopped and the wind stopped, and the chirping of birds and insects in the forest was inaudible, only the sound of Zheng Xiu walking on the muddy road was left, which was eerily quiet.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, the shadow of a village appeared in front of my eyes again. The lights were exactly the same as not long ago.

"Damn it?"

Now Zheng Xiu was surprised, and a drop of cold sweat fell on his forehead.

After pausing on the spot for a moment, Zheng Xiu took out the bandit knife he had snatched, carved a big fork on a conspicuous tree, and then returned.

really.

When Zheng Xiu saw the Chacha carved on the tree with his own hands again, he understood the mystery here.

"Do an investigation."

[You are opportunistic! 】

Oh yeah!There was a crit.

【36. 】

[The investigation was a great success! 】

Scouting is a good ability.

Doesn't need to be targeted, even works on air.

But the only disadvantage is that at the same time and place, once the investigation is successful, if the points are too low, no more information can be detected. If the judgment is made again, no new information will be detected even if the points are high.

Zheng Xiu has personally confirmed this point in the process of speed brushing.

But it doesn't matter, as long as you can investigate.

More and less are relative terms, and it is better than nothing.

[You see a village from a distance. 】

[This must be Baili Village. 】

[What a peaceful and peaceful place hidden in the troubled times. 】

【You are all alone, the rain has stopped, but you have lost your way in the woods. 】

【Although I don’t want to bother the villagers, but helpless, you are already hungry. If you don’t spend the night in the village and stay alone in the forest at night, something will happen to you. 】

[You are vigilant, bandits are in power all around you, and the world is cold, why are there no bandits to plunder Baili Village? 】

[So you made a decision. 】

After the successful investigation, three options floated in front of Zheng Xiu.

[The lonely shadow of the village in front of you makes you feel uneasy, and you decide to sleep in the woods. 】

[You are starving, so you decide to go to Baili Village and stay overnight. 】

【You want to leave this forest no matter what. Even if you encounter a mountain beast in the forest and fall into its belly, you will have no complaints or regrets. Just treat it as a good deed. 】

[Investigation] It really is a good skill.

Big success brought a lot of information.

Especially the last sentence makes sense.

In the end, Zheng Xiu learned from the pain and decided to advance to Baili Village.

Entering the village, Zheng Xiu looked around.The village is not big, there are about twenty families from a distance.A white and fat old man called himself the head of the village and opened the door.There was a fire in the house, and when Zheng Xiu was welcomed into the house, he found a few outsiders who didn't look like villagers.

The village chief said that the pedestrians also came to take shelter from the rain.

The other party was wearing a coir raincoat, with a saber at hand, Zheng Xiu's eyes became hot, and he almost thought it was a bandit.

Afterwards, I looked closely at the other party’s expression, especially the head old man, even though it was raining, his hair and beard were neatly combed. When Zheng Xiu stepped over the threshold, the other party looked at Zheng Xiu with vigilance, and soon he was Look away.

This time, Zheng Xiu didn't need to use the [Investigation] ability, and through his own observation, he was also vaguely aware of the other party's identity.

Boss Zheng has dealt with such people a lot.

If you are not rich, you are expensive.

Rich and noble families all have an obvious characteristic: fear of death, especially death.

Seeing that the old man carefully took out a silver needle from his bosom and stuck it into the soup, and confirmed that it was non-toxic before allowing others to take it, Zheng Xiu nodded secretly, confirming the matter even more.

Zheng Xiu lowered his head and drank the broth. The village head said that it was white carp, which was abundant in the village. The meat was tender and smooth, and the fish soup was sweet and delicious.Even Boss Zheng, who has eaten a lot of delicacies from mountains and seas, almost gnawed off his tongue when he drank this fish soup for the first time.

"Is this a fish?"

Zheng Xiu was skeptical at first, but the village head smiled and fished out the rotten fish bones from the pot, and Zheng Xiu believed it.

Taking a glance at the soft fish skeletons, Zheng Xiu drank it all in one bowl, and when he was about to add another bowl, a strange thought flashed through his mind:

"Why are the heads of those fish bones removed?"
