With a heavy heart, he walked out of the sacrificial hall under the guidance of his maid Xiaoyu. It was hard to describe his expression, but it looked a bit ugly.

The moment he walked out of the sacrificial hall, Qin Shang felt a gust of cold wind blowing into his arms.

In front of me is an extremely vast courtyard.

There are green plants everywhere in the yard, but it looks like no one has trimmed them for a long time, and many of the plants are growing crookedly.

It was pitch black outside, and a bright white jade plate was hanging in the void, making the entire yard look dreamy and eerie.

It was silent, with only the occasional footsteps of people walking out of the temple.

However, these people who had just participated in the worship ceremony basically did not speak, and even walked quietly.

It was as if he was deliberately controlling his voice for fear of disturbing someone.

Qin Shang saw that Xiaoyu beside him was so cold that her walking posture was stiff. Then he remembered that the girl was not wearing much clothes. He quickly took off his mourning clothes and handed them to the girl.

"Master, this..."

"Please put it on. I'm not cold."

"useless!"

Xiaoyu immediately shook her head like a rattle.

Qin Shang rolled his eyes and without further ado, he simply draped the clothes over the NPC.

He was afraid that Xiaoyu would freeze to death not because he felt sorry for an NPC in the system, he was not that kind to women.

I just don't want an NPC who might provide clues to die prematurely due to environmental factors.

"This era is still too backward, with serious class stratification. People's minds seem to be imprisoned by an invisible yoke. The master-servant concept is too strong. Isn't it just lending you a piece of clothing?"

Qin Shang put the clothes on Xiaoyu and raised his chin.

He looked somewhat tired.

"I'm tired, take me back to rest!"

Xiaoyu then pursed her lips and obediently led the way, without mentioning the mourning clothes she was wearing.

Linjia Dazhai is a building similar to a courtyard house. Looking at the whole building, there is no house higher than three stories high, and most of them are low bungalows with one or two floors.

After walking a short distance through a bamboo forest, I saw a beautiful woman in a cheongsam walking towards me in a hurry.

"'Lick the cockroach's feet', why aren't you wearing mourning clothes?"

The woman was still slightly dazed when she bumped into Qin Shang head-on.

Then, he blocked the way of Qin Shang and Xiao Yu, the master and servant, and then raised his eyebrows;

"Why are your clothes on a servant's body?"

After saying that, she took a step forward.

Snapped--

A slap landed directly on Xiaoyu's face, causing the girl to step back several steps.

"Are there still rules? How dare a servant wear the master's clothes? You are a maid, not a blood relative of our Lin family. Who allowed you to wear the young master's clothes?"

Qin Shang was a little slow to react, mainly because he didn't expect the intruder to start fighting right away.

Xiaoyu fell to the ground after being slapped. He didn't dare to argue. He covered his cheek and looked at the woman in fear.

Seeing this, Qin Shang frowned;

"I asked her to wear it. The temple was too cold, and I was afraid she would get cold and get into trouble..."

As the saying goes, beating a dog also depends on the owner.

The woman directly hit Qin Shang's maid without considering Qin Shang's face at all. It was enough to show that this woman had a bad relationship with Qin Shang's current owner in the copy.

And his status is most likely higher than Qin Shang's current status.

Otherwise, if they really had to take action, they would be more or less afraid of Qin Shang.

In other words, it is like a prince in the ancient court seeing that the emperor's princess was not observing proper etiquette and slapping her in the face.

Unless the relationship between the two has become strained, or the prince has eaten too much shit, would he go and slap the emperor's wife?

Isn't this like lighting a lamp in a toilet? Is this seeking death?

Who knew that as soon as these words came out, the lady in cheongsam would suddenly frown.

Before Qin Shang could say anything, Xiao Yu next to him was the first to break down.

"Madam Second Young Master, I was wrong, I was wrong, I will never dare to do it again!"

"Please just punish Xiaoyu, don't hurt the young master. The young master just came back and may have forgotten his etiquette outside."

"It was me. I shamelessly borrowed clothes from the young master. I forgot the difference between master and servant. Please don't take it personally."

The woman called the Second Young Master's Wife was not satisfied. She seemed to be angry because of Qin Shang's retort just now. She slapped him twice more.

He beat Xiaoyu until she screamed in pain, and then he clapped his hands in satisfaction.

"Humph!"

"There is no order without rules. So let's put it this way. You did something wrong. Tonight, you and the Third Young Master will be punished to escort Miss Shen's spirit tablet to the grave in the back mountain."

"This task is simple, you should have no objection, right?"

"If you think the Third Young Master is tired from the journey, you can go and escort the spirit tablet by yourself."

Spirit tablet?

Qin Shang frowned, feeling that the look this woman gave him was full of amusement and ill will.

It was no coincidence that she appeared towards him. It seemed that even if he didn't give Xiaoyu clothes, the other party would find fault with him.

Well!

It looks like an NPC set up by Shenlu, specifically used to advance the plot.

The slaps Xiaoyu received were completely unprovoked.

Even if I did nothing and ran into the Second Young Lady, there was a good chance that she would use my coming back late as an excuse to make trouble for me.

Swish!

However, Xiaoyu's expression next to him changed drastically in an instant.

My body began to tremble unconsciously.

"Second Young Madam, I, I..."

"What do you mean by 'you'? Didn't you see that the Third Young Master didn't say anything? Is it your turn as a servant to speak? Why are you trying to interrupt?"

"Since the Third Young Master has not denied it, then it is settled. It just so happens that the Second Young Master has been feeling unwell recently. Today is the third day of the sacrifice and the Second Young Master did not go."

"Third brother, since your mourning clothes are of no use, give them to me. Your sister-in-law will kindly wash them for you. Let this maid come and get them in a few days."

After saying this, the second young lady took away Xiaoyu's mourning clothes.

That was not the one that belonged to the girl, but the mourning dress that Qin Shang gave him, with the word "Lin" written on it.

Seeing this, Xiaoyu quickly hugged the second young lady's calf;

"No, absolutely not. You are sending our Third Young Master to his death, Second Young Madam..."

pop-

Before he could finish his words, the beautiful woman in palace dress snorted coldly and raised her hand again, but this time she did not slap him.

Qin Shang grabbed her arm;

"If sister-in-law wants it, just take it..."

Since Qin Shang is the third young master of the Lin family, then the second young master's wife is naturally the wife of the second young master of the Lin family, and of course his sister-in-law.

"You are still sensible!"

"Humph!"

The second young lady pouted;

"If it weren't for you, would the Lin family have had so many troubles?"

"Second Young Madam, be careful..."

Xiaoyu's face changed.

The Second Young Master's wife then snorted coldly and restrained her expression, saying "you know what's good for you".

He pulled up his mourning clothes, looked at Qin Shang, then walked away with a contemptuous smile.

Soon, it disappeared into the darkness of the bamboo forest.

Qin Shang now understood that his identity in the copy seemed to be the third young master of the Lin family.

And this Third Young Master seems to be quite good...

No matter how many elders there are in the family, he is still the third young master of the Lin family.

When kneeling in the temple, I could only sit in the second row...

And to be despised by a woman like that, this status is really hard to describe.

Although the main plot didn't seem to advance much, contacting the second young master's wife also provided me with a lot of clues.

Seeing the beautiful woman in palace dress walking away, Qin Shang hurriedly helped Xiao Yu up from the ground;

"Are you okay?"

The girl covered her red cheeks and anxiously stared in the direction where the second young lady left;

"Master, how could you let the Second Young Mistress take away your mourning clothes?"

"What's wrong? Is there anything special about that dress?"

Qin Shang raised his eyebrows in confusion, and Xiao Yu was about to cry when she heard this;

"Didn't Manager Cui send you a telegram? The mourning clothes are made by a witch, and they can bring peace."

"After the sacrifice on the first day, the Second Young Master ignored everyone's advice and threw away his mourning clothes. Then he fell seriously ill. It must have been Miss Shen who pestered him."

"You are so confused. Your mourning clothes were taken away by the Second Young Lady. What will you do then?"

Have you ever been cast under a spell?

No problem, I have the 'Cursed Red Dress' and the 'Holy Cross'.

Even if Miss Shen turns into a ghost and comes to find me, I can deal with her in an instant.

Qin Shang is now extremely curious about what happened to the Lin family.

The background board said that the entire Lin family was wiped out, but the Lin family he was in at the moment was obviously thriving. Combined with the fact that the main task was to keep himself alive for seventy-two hours.

In other words, the time when he entered the Divine Road copy should correspond to the seventy-two hours before the Lin family was wiped out.

So the main task is to survive for 72 hours...

Because, seventy-two hours later, the entire Lin family would be wiped out.

Being in this situation, I, who currently serves as the third young master of the Lin family, am no exception. There is an 80% chance that I will die in the Lin residence!

Qin Shang smiled, comforted the girl, and took out a sacred cross and waved it in front of the girl;

"It's okay. I got a lot of treasures during this trip. Don't worry about me. You should have heard of Western missionaries, right?"

"This is what the foreign devil...the blond-haired, blue-eyed missionary gave me!"

Anyway, my character is that of a descendant of the Lin family who returned after being away for a while.

Then what I got when I went out can just be made up by him?

What’s more, during the Republic of China period, missionaries were everywhere, and the earliest prototype of pyramid schemes seemed to be these blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigners.

The local residents rarely have the opportunity to come into contact with foreigners and have no idea what special abilities they have.

When Xiaoyu saw the cross, she was first instinctively afraid, and then she became excited from the bottom of her heart;

"Then you will be safe!"

Qin Shang smiled. He could feel that the excitement on the girl's face came from the bottom of her heart. It seemed that the original owner of his identity in the copy was probably a person with great charisma.

The next moment, Qin Shang asked;

"Today is the third day of worshipping Miss Shen?"

"Yes, the third day."

Well!

Qin Shang touched the tip of his nose.

The third day was fine.

If the seven days are up, they will all turn into zombies, and even Lin Zhengying will be unable to do anything about it.

But that can't be said. Who knows when Shen Xiuxiu died? This is only the third day of mourning for Miss Shen. It doesn't mean that Miss Shen happened to die three days ago...

As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, Qin Shang shook his head.

And I am a fraud, not a Taoist priest.

There is no such profession as Taoist priest in Nima Shenlu!

Even if Miss Shen didn't turn into a monster, even if she became a form similar to the 'El' shadow, Qin Shang would not be able to do anything to her. At most, he could only fight her for a few rounds.

"Has something strange happened at home recently?"

The next moment, Qin Shang calmed down.

He looked at the girl, took a deep breath and asked.

The previous ones are just appetizers. This is the only sentence that Qin Shang has been talking about since he entered the dungeon [Lin’s House No. 37].

The deepest question in my heart.

as predicted.

Hearing this, the girl's expression suddenly twisted.
