[Someone was looking at you just now]

The young fox’s cry, which revealed how feeble it was, rang out in Wei Xun’s mind.

“I know.” Wei Xun had long since felt that someone was peeping at him, but good-looking people were often peeped at from a young age and they got used to it, and Wei Xun didn’t care. Although Ah Cheng was not as handsome as him, in terms of the appearances of those within Cordoned-off Village, he could be said to have one of the best appearances.

“I’m used to it.”

The young fox felt choked after hearing his reply. After a long time, the fox whined again. He transmitted the short thought, [He’s very dangerous.]

The baby fox’s cries were too sweet, and he spoke to Wei Xun in very short sentences. After reminding Wei Xun, he couldn’t help but cry out, [What did you give me to eat? I want to eat more of that. It’s a very good tonic for me.]

“I don’t have any more of it.”

Wei Xun was a bachelor. When the young fox urged him again and said that he could find it himself, Wei Xun earnestly advised him, “Sometimes the more people know, the more painful it is. Do you know what I mean?”

He wouldn’t want it to know that the ginseng rootlets it ate were once stepped on by maggots.

Wei Xun thought with pity that he was too kind.

As he knew, if he sold those ginseng rootlets to the Travel Services, he could have earned hundreds of points.

Yu Hehui’s soul was too weak. Even if he wanted to help Wei Xun or pay off the debt he owed Wei Xun for saving his life as soon as possible, Wei Xun couldn’t provide Yu Hehui with huge amounts of energy for him to recover. Therefore, Yu Hehui had no choice but to choose to slumber.

However, Wei Xun had finally gotten rid of his status as a worker and was promoted to a boss. He had done all this to avoid being a philanthropist, and immediately asked Yu Hehui if there was anything Wei Xun had which he could eat to heal.

With that, Wei Xun put the maggots, the golden mosquito, and other things in front of Yu Hehui. His intention was very obvious. Unfortunately, Yu Hehui didn’t understand his kindness and only ate the ginseng rootlets Wu Laoliu gave him.

Of course, this energy was far from being enough for him to repair his soul, but it allowed Yu Hehui to have the spare power to separate a silver of a young fox’s instinctive consciousness to help Wei Xun. As for his main consciousness, it fell into a deep sleep.

[When I wake up, the Travel Services may do you dirty. But if it’s only the Travel Services who has such intentions, you should be fine]

Yu Hehui could be considered to be a boss who worked for the Travel Services and jumped over to work for Wei Xun. Wei Xun also understood that Yu Hehui was probably not on good terms with the Travel Services just by remembering the Travel Services’ remark about Yu Hehui: [We suggest selling the soul to the Travel Services].

Yu Hehui’s main consciousness was sleeping, and Wei Xun was also satisfied. After all, Wang Pengpai was still on the tour. What if Yu Hehui was really acquainted with Wang Pengpai and wanted to side with Wang Pengpai?

That wouldn’t work.

Therefore, having the young fox’s consciousness was much better. Although it had the cunning nature of the fox, it recognized Wei Xun as its master and instinctively felt closer to him. It was also ignorant and vaguely aware that if it wanted to restore its strength, it had to rely on Wei Xun. Therefore, apart from being a little greedy, it acted very conscientiously.

[Alright, sob, sob]

The young fox pitifully yawned. Its consciousness was still too weak and it grew sleepy easily. [Master, I want to sleep. That cold thing has continued watching you, uwa]

“Sleep.”

Wei Xun walked to Pingping’s house. When he had met Fangfang, he had felt a dangerous cold sensation near him. When Fangfang had said she wanted to devote her body to him, the sense of crisis he had felt had reached its peak. That feeling made Wei Xun’s heart beat faster.

The current Pingping was the spiteful ghost Pingping.

Wei Xun stuck his hands into his pockets and dug out the two bracelets that looked almost identical. After he had entered the attraction, his tour guide’s identity was locked. He was temporarily unable to use the tour guide’s brooch and the other tour guide’s items, and he also couldn’t contact the Travel Services. Otherwise, he would not need to carry this dangerous thing with him at all. If Ah Cheng’s affair with Fangfang was exposed, he would have to suffer the consequences.

Not only was his identity as the tour guide locked, but Wei Xun was not a real tourist. Unlike Miao Fangfei and the others who had a fixed task to participate in the crying marriage, in theory, Wei Xun could wander around anywhere he liked.

For example, he could try to harass Pingping in the middle of the night. Unfortunately, he was stopped by the people of Cordoned-off Village before he could approach Pingping’s house.

“Ah Cheng, Pingping is getting married soon. Don’t bother her anymore.”

“I know, I just, just want to see her again.” Wei Xun said sadly and squeezed out two tears.

Before the person guarding the house could refuse him again, his shoulders trembled and he spoke before they could do anything. “No, you’re right. I really shouldn’t bother Pingping again. It’s bad for her, but I really love her… Ah Hu, I smell the scent of pig liver. Have they started preparing for the wedding? I, I have no idea what I should do. I’ll help cook pig liver.”

Ah Hu hesitated, and he was not as firm when he refused Wei Xun again, “But cooking is the work of a woman…”

“These young married women can do it, so I can do it as well. Please, Ah Hu, I just, just want to help.”

“Alright.”

Ah Hu finally agreed and took Wei Xun to the village head’s house. The strong smell of boiled pig liver mixed with blood came from the kitchen. He saw a big pot on the blackened stove, in which dirty blood foam floated in the boiling water, and a large, light gray uncut pig liver floated in the boiling water.

After Wei Xun came in, he immediately attracted the attention of the five women who were cooking pig liver. Under their gloomy gazes, Wei Xun acted naturally and smiled melancholically. He stood at the door of the kitchen and said, “Aunties, I’m here to help.”

“We don’t need your help here.”

One of the women said sternly and impolitely, “Ah Cheng, don’t make trouble. You can’t cause a mishap in Pingping’s marriage.”

Wei Xun didn’t expect the kitchen to be so dirty, and the women’s words were exactly what he wanted to hear. Wei Xun expressed his sadness several times. Seeing that the other party still disagreed, he sighed, smiled bitterly, and stood by the kitchen door, staring at the pig liver cooked in the big pot, seemingly still in pain.

Wei Xun was really in pain. He didn’t know how these women cooked the pig liver, but he almost fainted after smelling its scent. The bright red pig livers were put in several blackened wooden barrels. They took out a pig liver and threw it into the pot without cleaning it.

After the pig liver was cooked, one of them took the blood-stained pig liver out and directly pressed it down, slicing the pig liver and piling it in a bamboo basket to cool. Wei Xun couldn’t bear to watch their actions. On the contrary, the young fox liked the aroma of pig liver. When it woke up, it told Wei Xun in a milky voice that it wanted to eat that.

“Do you normally prefer to eat dirty things?”

Wei Xun spoke to the young fox in a tone as if he was conducting scientific research, “Between the ginseng rootlets and this pig liver, which do you like more?”

Wei Xun was truly contemplating this seriously. After all, the young fox was still a remnant soul. It may be that it liked to eat things touched by ghosts or monsters. How should he describe it, would these things supplement Yin energy?

But who would admit to liking to eat dirty things? The young fox became angry and barked continuously, and its barks sounded like a dog’s cries.

“Okay, it’s time to get down to business.”

At four o’clock in the morning, Wei Xun caught a glimpse of another group of five people changing shifts with the original group of five people cooking the pig liver. With just a glance, he saw a spotted snake around the wrist of the woman leading the group.

Sure enough, the Travel Services always allowed tourists to participate in these sorts of activities. Wei Xun’s chance had come.

He couldn’t come into contact with Pingping casually, but the tourists could always come into contact with her.

.

On the way to the kitchen, Miao Fangfei and Xu Chen looked at each other. At 3:30 in the morning, they had been woken up and told that they were going to prepare food for the first cry.

The wedding ceremony for Dong tribe newlyweds was held at the same time as the leaving mother banquet. Three ingredients: pig liver, chicken, and fish, had to be prepared. Pig liver was served so that the bride would be her husband’s sweetheart. Chicken was homonymous with “Ji,” which represented their wishes for the bride to encounter good luck. Fish was homonymous with “Yu,” which meant that the bride would have enough to eat, wear, and enjoy after she married into her husband’s family.

Originally, this leaving mother banquet was only for the bride and her female elders, but somehow, at Cordoned-off Village, everyone in the village was attending the leaving mother banquet, so they had to prepare food for the whole village.

Miao Fangfei, Shi Tao, and Xu Chen had been selected to prepare the pig liver together with Ah Sang and Ah Wen, who were also in Miao Fangfei’s house. Along the way, Miao Fangfei and Xu Chen made eye contact. When they arrived at the kitchen of the village head’s house, Miao Fangfei saw that only pig liver was placed there, so they understood that they were preparing pig liver. The other groups would prepare chicken or fish.

Originally, she had thought that she could gather everyone here to collect information, but she hadn’t expected that the tourists had to prepare the food in batches——Miao Fangfei felt that this was a pity. However, meeting Xu Chen here also came as a surprise. Taking this opportunity, the two groups could communicate with each other.

Miao Fangfei walked to the kitchen door, immersed in her thoughts. Then, she and the others noticed a handsome and dejected man guarding the door at the same time. He was staring at the pig liver being cooked in the big pot, and his gaze reflected his melancholy as he daydreamed.

Why is Ah Cheng here?

Miao Fangfei did not act rashly, but went into the kitchen and began to cook the pig liver. As she was cooking, Shi Tao helped by providing cover for Miao Fangfei so she could communicate with Xu Chen.

“There are really two different options.”

Miao Fangfei agreed and whispered, “You see, the women who are cooking are stained with rotten filth, but Ah Cheng is very clean. He is not with them.”

“Him being here should probably be related to us making a choice in this task.” Xu Chen stated, glancing at Shi Tao.

After a while, they quietly swapped positions so that Miao Fangfei was standing by the cooking pot near the door. Then Xu Chen and Shi Tao blocked Ah Sang and Ah Wen’s gazes with their bodies. Miao Fangfei took the opportunity to go to the door and sound Ah Cheng out.

“Ah Cheng, you shouldn’t be here.”

“Sister Miao, I know, but I can’t let go of my feelings.”

Sure enough!

Seeing Ah Cheng’s pained face and listening to his trembling words, Miao Fangfei was inwardly happy. She pretended to hesitate, and finally sighed.

“You… Ah Cheng, this can happen just this once. What do you want to do? Is there anything I can help you with?”
