I Was Found Out Pretending To Be a Rookie in a Paranormal World?!
Chapter 79
The four who had "left" earlier returned, blocking the path down the mountain with unfriendly looks in their eyes.
Zhuge Ye: "Eh? Didn't you guys leave? What are you back for?"
"..." ×4
Zhuge Ye was taken aback and said, "Did you run into trouble? Did something powerful appear on the way back?"
"Geez... What do we do now?!"
"Shut up." Jiang Che pulled Zhuge Ye back.
At this moment, Jiang Zihao stepped forward and said, "Bro, what's that paper in your hand?"
Jiang Che: "I don't have any money on me."
"I mean the slip in your hand!"
"I don't have gallstones. Do you have gallstones?" Jiang Che looked at Zhuge Ye.
Zhuge Ye: "What stones? That's called an inner elixir!"
"... Are you messing with me?" Jiang Zihao's smile faded, his expression turning grim.
Jiang Che waved his hand, smiling, "Don't mess around, I never mess with men."
"At least you heard that clearly."
Jiang Che: "Chrysanthemum? What chrysanthemum???"
Jiang Zihao pulled out his axe, revealing a menacing look, "Stop playing games with me!!!"
"I was the one who brought you up the mountain today, otherwise you wouldn't have gotten that slip."
"Is it too much to ask you to share the clue?"
Jiang Che: "Actually, it is quite excessive."
Zhuge Ye: "Exactly, why should we give you what we found?"
In fact, the content recorded on this slip wasn't important.
What mattered was that this slip could directly prove that the organs of these corpses were maliciously trafficked.
Even though the clues couldn't be linked together now.
But knowing it alone was better than everyone knowing.
After all, the fewer people who completed the task, the better the rewards...
Moreover, they hadn't provided any help.
Trading clues could be considered, but sharing them? Dream on.
At this time, the guy who looked like Yue Yunpeng stepped forward and said, "Bro, it's just a slip, what's the harm in letting us see it?"
"Besides, you two couldn't possibly take on the four of us, right?"
Jiang Zihao sneered and continued, "When we were fighting the corpses, you two hid."
"I know you have a Taboo Object that can confuse the Uncanny, but we're all challengers, we won't be fooled by such a Taboo Object."
"Moreover, maybe we'll all join the Uncanny Bureau in the future, we'll see each other often, no need to make things awkward."
The more Jiang Zihao spoke, the more enthusiastic he became. In his view, no matter what, the four of them had the same goal now.
Jiang Che couldn't possibly stir up any trouble.
"The Uncanny Trial is fraught with danger, having one more clue not only increases the chance of passing but might also save someone's life."
"One must have morals, you can't indirectly kill someone, right?"
What a twisted logic.
So if I don't hand over the slip, I'm indirectly killing someone?
Trying to guilt-trip me here?
Jiang Che: "The gun went off, did you see who fired it?"
Zhuge Ye: "I couldn't see clearly, he was standing on the moral high ground, basking in the sunlight."
"Are you guys doing a comedy routine?" Jiang Zihao was losing patience, "Hand it over, I'm warning you, don't mess with me!"
"Sorry."
Jiang Che: "I didn't have a choice before, now I want to be a good person."
With that, Jiang Che stuffed the slip into Zhuge Ye's mouth.
"Swallow it!"
"Ugh! Gulp~"
Zhuge Ye: "What a strong taste... hic~"
"You!"
"Outrageous!"
Jiang Zihao and the other two men were furious.
Jiang Zihao first said, "Let's team up, I don't believe he's not afraid of death, we'll force him to talk! Share the clue!"
"Okay!" ×2
"Get him!"
The three of them rushed forward immediately!
For a clue, they didn't care about saving face.
Not to mention the qualification for the Uncanny Bureau, just the D-level reward was already very tempting!
Just then.
"Clang!"
A large, exaggerated knife was thrust heavily into the ground.
A terrifying aura spread instantly, and the dark red blade seemed to flow with blood.
The three of them stopped immediately, looking in disbelief at the red knife in front of Jiang Che!
Xiaoman: "Xiaoman's products are always top-notch! Yay~"
Jiang Che: "No yay~"
Xiaoman: "No no yay~"
[Bone-Crushing Knife (E)]: My big knife is already eager for action!
A new Taboo Object formed from the fusion of a bone knife and scissors!
The design even startled Jiang Che himself.
Honestly, this is too cool, right?
Jiang Che gripped the handle, grinning, "Come on, I've long been eager for... pfft!"
"My big knife is already eager for action!"
"Gulp."
"Gulp gulp..."
The three of them swallowed hard.
Originally, they thought Jiang Che and Zhuge Ye would be easy to deal with, especially since their performance during the fight with the corpses was so poor.
But once Jiang Che pulled out the Bone-Crushing Knife, everything changed.
The aura of this big knife was clearly an E-level Taboo Object...
Almost reaching D-level.
Jiang Zihao was an E-level challenger, but the other two were only F-level.
The ponytail girl didn't seem to intend to make a move.
Plus, that seemingly crazy person had a bead that could emit blinding white light and flames.
With this...
Jiang Zihao put away his axe, smiling slyly, "The weather is nice today, yesterday I found a deck of playing cards."
"Anyone up for a game of Landlord?"
"Me!"
"Me too!" the other two men quickly said.
Jiang Zihao: "Let's go, let's head back to the village for a game before it gets dark."
"Sure, we love playing Landlord."
The three of them changed their expressions faster than flipping a book, disappearing in an instant.
Jiang Che didn't chase after them, after all, it's unwise to pursue a desperate enemy, and there was no deep-seated hatred.
However, the ponytail girl didn't leave.
At this moment, Zhuge Ye whispered, "Brother Che, do you think she might be interested in you?"
Jiang Che: "There are plenty of girls interested in me, they have to queue up."
Girl: "..."
"You should have killed those three," the girl said.
Jiang Che shrugged, "I have my plans."
The ponytail girl walked towards Jiang Che.
She extended her hand.
Girl: "Hello, my name is Su Xiaojin."
Jiang Che: "Hello, I'm Zhuge Ye."
Su Xiaojin: "The world is dangerous, revealing your name might not be a good thing."
Jiang Che: "How do you know I'm telling the truth?"
Zhuge Ye: "Yeah, how do you know he's telling the truth?"
Jiang Che: "Besides, in the Mystic World, our appearance can only be changed at level 5, with our relatively real appearance, is a name that important?"
Su Xiaojin: "… You're right."
Zhuge Ye: "Bro, she's mocking you."
Jiang Che: "..."
Jiang Che glanced at Su Xiaojin, then extended his hand as well.
They shook hands briefly.
But Jiang Che was surprised.
Even with a brief touch, he could feel the many calluses on Su Xiaojin's palm...
"So, what do you want?" Jiang Che asked.
Su Xiaojin: "Exchange clues."
Zhuge Ye retracted his lonely hand and said, "Alright, who goes first? We won't go first."
Jiang Che: "Besides, the thing has already been eaten by him, would you believe me if I told you?"
Su Xiaojin directly said, "Yesterday, when I entered that house, I heard a child's voice inside."
"Which house?"
"The one you guys first entered yesterday."
Jiang Che pointed at the corpses, "Organ trafficking."
Su Xiaojin frowned slightly, then thanked him and left.
Xiaoman: "The ghostly spirit inside her is quite strong."
Jiang Che: "You can't beat it either?"
Xiaoman: "Do you have a misunderstanding about my strength?"
Jiang Che: "..."
