I work as a housekeeper in Guilou

Chapter 71 The Bloody Castle ()
  "Should we go to Corriad now, or should we investigate the surroundings first?"

Xia Qimiao thought for a while and replied: "Corriad."

Now that all the clues and mysteries are pointing there, it's better to go straight to Huanglong.

The two hit it off and went to fry the ice cream to trick Brown Beard into leading the way.

Xia Qimiao went to see Lin Jiangdan and found that she had put away the painting and her face was red. If she were a human, it would look like she had a fever.

But she is a monster, so she shouldn't suffer from this disease, right?
  "Are you ok?"

"Thank you for your concern, host. I'm doing fine." Lin Jiangdan smiled, with her eyes full of her. "I feel like my painting skills have made a breakthrough. When I return to Guilou, please allow me to entertain guests." District to complete my painting.”

"Okay, anyway, no guests will come to the door now. You can paint where you want."

If the result of the drawing lowers the comfort level, she can just take it out later. It's not a big deal.

"Thank you."

"Sara, it's time for us to leave. Don't be impulsive this time, otherwise even the president won't be able to save you."

The fried ice cream actor took on the role of a sincere senior in front of Brown Beard. He tied the person with a hemp rope and held the other end in his hand.

"I understand, Eskorum, I will control my temper." Xia Qimiao took over the role, not forgetting to glare at Brownbeard, getting a resentful look from him.

Brownbeard led the way, and the two of them followed behind.

They walked through the desolate streets and found that there was no one on the road, the doors and windows of every house were closed, and there was no sign of anyone walking out.

Fried Ice Cream cast a questioning look, Xia Qimiao nodded, stopped, and the vine took the rope from his hand.

He knocked on the door of one of them and waited for a long time before a crack opened inside. He lowered his eyes and asked anxiously: "Hello, my child is missing. Have you seen a little girl?"

Although he doesn't even have a girlfriend in reality, here he can be a single father whose daughter is missing. Especially in this environment where young women are missing one after another, it is easier to win sympathy and help from others.

However, the reality was not as smooth as he expected. After hearing what he said, the other party closed the door with a bang.

A bad start.

He knocked on two more doors, but this time they wouldn't even open them for him.

In desperation, he could only spread his hands and return to the team.

The vines climbed up Brownbeard's neck and swept the rag from his mouth.

Fried Ice Cream took advantage of the situation and asked: "Isn't this the territory under the jurisdiction of Duke Coriad? Why are the residents like this?"

The duke sounds like a big shot, but his rule is so desolate that it's hard not to doubt his ability.

"It's all the vampire's fault. It's all his fault for kidnapping people," Brownbeard said, his voice becoming very hoarse since he had not touched any water since last night, "The evil vampire!"

Xia Qimiao was stunned for a moment, then remembered the character she had created, and decisively stretched out her legs to kick his knees from behind, forcing him to kneel down.

"Salad!" Fried Ice Cream pretended to be unhappy on the surface, and secretly gave the captain a thumbs up when he helped him up. "What's wrong with you? He just told the truth about vampires?"

In Brownbeard's eyes, he had successfully sowed discord and pulled the male hunter into his camp.

Although he is still unable to control himself, his mind has become much more relaxed, and he believes that returning to Coriad will be the death of this bitch.

He looked at the woman who dared to be angry but did not dare to speak. Thinking of the things she had discussed with the hunter before, he was not as angry as before.

"Didn't you say you are going to Coriad? Why don't you leave quickly?" Xia Qimiao pretended to be patient.

They continued walking, but the distance between them became wider. The two men were in front and the two women were behind. The distance between them was long and distinct. "Master, I want to kill him." Lin Jiangdan whispered. God knows how hard it took her to suppress her murderous intention when she saw his disrespectful, ugly and malicious look at the host.

"Not now, let him lead the way."

There are two lines in Xia Qimiao's heart, one divides reality and games, and the other divides friend and foe.

If Lin Jiangdan said she wanted to kill the player, she would probably stop him.

What she wants to kill now is Brownbeard, a character in the game who is at most an NPC and an enemy NPC. There is nothing he cannot kill.

She hasn't taken action yet, firstly because she doesn't like killing to solve problems, and secondly because he is still useful.

If it is useful now, there will be a day when it becomes useless.

Just because she doesn't like it doesn't mean she won't do it.

Xia Qimiao will not use morality to kidnap others, let alone herself. She only wants to do things with a clear conscience and no harm to her actions.

They walked through the street, and at the end of the road was the back hill.

It was already dark, and the lush canopy of trees was lifted into the sky, blocking out a lot of light. Walking inside felt like walking at night.

When there is no light around, people's fears will be infinitely magnified.

Xia Qimiao turned on the flashlight, and the steady light illuminated the road ahead.

Although she felt as if her heart was bleeding when she placed the order and paid, she now feels that it was worth the money, and five thousand is not such a loss.

She frowned slightly as she walked. From her experience, it was impossible for the mountains to be so quiet.

There was neither the sound of wind nor the chirping of insects, as if they were the only living creatures left here.

Fried Ice Cream put his hand behind his back and shook the blade in his hand. This was telling the captain that he was ready to cut his rope.

Xia Qimiao touched Hongteng, and Lvteng patted his wrist after receiving the signal.

Being prepared, Brownbeard's escape did not surprise anyone. Only the fried ice cream pretended to shout: "Hurry up!"

He waited until there was no trace of anyone running away before he walked up to her and said, "I negotiated with him to let him escape, and then lead you to chase him, so that I can lead you into their ambush."

He raised his hand and separated his thumb and index finger a short distance: "I put a piece of vine on him. This should be able to guide us. Once we determine the position, we can bypass the trap and then outflank them."

Following his words, the Devouring Rose straightened the red vines, quite a bit like holding its head high.

"Let's leave here first." Xia Qimiao turned off the flashlight in order to avoid being exposed.

She was still a little uncomfortable when she returned to the dim light, but once her eyes got used to it, it was fine. She was not alone now and was not so scared.

Green vines rustled in front of them, guiding them.

Suddenly, it curved into a question mark, and then quickly pulled several people back.

Xia Qimiao reacted instantly. This was a warning of danger and told them to run quickly.

When they discovered the other side, the other side also discovered them.

"Boss, the one in the white skirt is a monster!"

　Finally met it! Fight, fight, fight!
