No NPC I Can't Kill
Chapter 31
A thousand taels of gold?!
Lan Ya looked at her wallet.
8 gold, 23 silver, 34 bronze.
Luckily, the Five Poisons had abundant resources and she did not need to buy many herbs. Otherwise, she would not even have 8 gold left.
Where would she get a thousand taels of gold?
Now that the exchange rate between the game currency and RMB had risen to 1: 210, a thousand taels of gold would be more than 200,000 RMB!
She had no choice but to turn back and look for Hua Manlou.
After Hua Manlou heard about the situation, he immediately asked someone to bring a thousand taels of gold. He was about to give it to Lan Ya when he retracted his hand halfway.
???
What's going on?
Hua Manlou said, "I've heard about this Bliss House. It's full of shady dealings. Young Master Lu is right. I'm worried about you going alone."
"It's okay. Don't forget that I'm a player. I can just go offline. There won't be any danger."
"Even though you say that, we can't let a girl take the risk alone. I'll go."
"But Hua Sir, you're the young master of Datong Bank. What if they find out about your true identity?"
"It's okay. I've always kept a low profile. Not many people have seen me. Rana, don't worry. Leave this to me."
Although Hua Manlou looked gentle and weak, once he had decided on something, no one would be able to sway his decision even if they tried their best to persuade him.
Lan Ya tried to persuade him but to no avail. In the end, she could only sigh.
"Hua Sir, I thought you were easy to talk to. Why are you so stubborn?!"
"Rana, when it comes to matters of principle, I can't let you go."
"… You're really going to piss me off!
The NPCs in this game are just trying to drive the players crazy! "Lan Ya stomped her feet in anger," I should've taken the money and run! "
Hua Manlou said, "If that's the case, the moment you take the money, you will be taken away by the Four Great Condors."
"…" Lan Ya didn't say anything. She stomped the floor a few more times.
"The Bliss House is very dangerous. If anything happens to you, all your previous efforts will be in vain."
Hua Manlou persuaded Lan Ya earnestly, "It's not that I don't want you to go, but I think there's a better way to solve it."
In fact, Lan Ya was easily swayed. In addition, Hua Manlou said it so sincerely, so she was too embarrassed to refuse. She could only raise her hands and surrender. "Okay, okay, I give up. I won't go, okay?"
"Rana really didn't disappoint me."
Lan Ya sighed and said, "Don't put a label on me. What if I'm too happy and say that I want to go? How awkward would that be for you?"
After the two discussed the arrangements, Lan Ya sent Hua Manlou out.
Before leaving, Hua Manlou suddenly said to her, "Rana, did you know that there were other players who received this mission before you?"
Lan Ya didn't care about this and asked casually, "Oh, and then?"
"But no one has completed this mission yet. I think you should be the first."
"Really?!" Lan Ya instantly forgot her previous depression and immediately became happy. "Then I'll count on your auspicious words!"
Hua Manlou nodded. "When I come back, I'll send someone to send you a message. Just wait for my news.
If you have any questions, come to the bank. I've already instructed them to do their best to cooperate with you. "
After thinking for a while, he told her, "I didn't tell anyone about this. Don't let it slip."
"Okay. Don't worry!"
After Hua Manlou left, Lan Ya estimated that it would take at least several hours for a reply. Anyway, she was bored. Lan Ya wanted to find Chen Xi to have some fun.
The two seemed to have a telepathic connection. As soon as she thought of her, Chen Xi sent a message.
[Hua Xiaoxi]: I always have a hunch that my mission is not a good thing.
[Rana Yamashita]: What's wrong?
[Hua Xiaoxi]: I just received a mission. It's a little hard to explain.
[Rana Yamashita]: Is the mission difficult?
Or did you encounter any problems?
[Hua Xiaoxi]: It's not very difficult. It's just sending a letter.
But I always feel that I'm doing something bad.
[Rana Yamashita]: Do you want me to come over?
I'm free now.
[Hua Xiaoxi]: Okay, okay. Come on!
Chen Xi quickly sent a team application. From this, it could be seen that her attitude was very urgent. This also made Lan Ya a little curious. What kind of mission could make Chen Xi so anxious?
Yanggu County was not far from the capital. Lan Ya first transmitted to Liaocheng. Then, according to the route given by Chen Xi, she came out of the east city gate and climbed over a mountain. Chen Xi was waiting for Lan Ya at the city gate.
"You're here!"
Seeing Lan Ya, Chen Xi happily greeted her. Finally, there was someone who was anxious with her.
Lan Ya curled her lips. "It's just sending a letter.
You don't know how I survived these two days. "
"Of course it's not difficult to send a letter. But I'm being tortured!"
"What's the situation? The problem is so serious."
Chen Xi sighed deeply and told Lan Ya about her experience.
Originally, she was just passing by. However, when she was walking on the road, a shop on the second floor accidentally dropped the wooden stick used to support the window. It hit right in front of Chen Xi.
Out of kindness, Chen Xi picked up the wooden stick and was about to return it to the owner.
Unexpectedly, the shop owner was very enthusiastic and asked Chen Xi to come in for a cup of tea and a rest.
Chen Xi saw that the NPC was so enthusiastic. There must be a mission!
So she agreed and followed the shop owner into the shop.
The shop owner's surname was Pan, and her name was Jin Lian. Together with her husband, she ran this shop that specialized in selling sesame pancakes.
Her husband's name was Wu Dalang, and he was very good at making sesame pancakes. The couple had just moved to Yanggu County less than a year ago, but because of their famous skills, they quickly established a foothold here.
During the day, Wu Dalang went out to sell sesame pancakes, while Pan Jinlian was responsible for looking after the shop at home.
The two chatted for a while. Pan Jinlian cried to Chen Xi about her miserable experience. It turned out that she used to be a servant in the neighboring county. Because of her beauty, she attracted the attention of the master. Her master's wife was worried that her husband would take Pan Jinlian as a concubine, so she decided to marry her to Wu Dalang.
Wu Dalang was short and ugly.
All he did was make and sell sesame pancakes. He was not romantic at all. Pan Jinlian lived every day in depression and was not fun at all.
When Chen Xi heard this, she naturally sympathized with Pan Jinlian, so she comforted her.
