Chapter 32

"Damn it, this is really bad luck. A woman, and she has such high skills. Is this world still letting us play or what!"

In the bright living room, a bearded man suddenly threw the teacup in his hand to the ground angrily and cursed.

Beside him, there were a few young men with unhappy expressions, sitting there with dark faces.

Clearly, they were the five who had just been killed by Xiangxue in the world of Jianghu!

These rough men, accustomed to the survival rules of the post-apocalyptic world, were finally eliminated by Xiangxue due to their reckless behavior in Jianghu.

"Xiu Ge, actually, whether we die or not doesn't matter much. We're leaving the city in a few days anyway, and we can't play Jianghu anymore. After this battle, you can all enter Jianghu again, and you might even get a better identity. But this Bu Family Manor, it doesn't look simple at all!" The bespectacled man, who had tried to persuade Xiu Ge earlier, adjusted his glasses and said softly.

Speaking of which, the bespectacled man wasn't nearsighted. However, he had seen many people from before the great disaster wearing such glasses, which were said to adjust vision!

Whether the glasses adjusted vision or not didn't matter much to him, but he liked the scholarly air they gave him.

"This damn game is really boring. If it weren't for Young Master Tony insisting we play, I wouldn't even bother!" Xiu Ge said angrily at this moment.

Just then, the door opened, and a young man rushed in, saying to Xiu Ge, "Boss, Young Master Tony has sent instructions!"

"Give it to me!" Xiu Ge snatched the envelope of information angrily and saw that it contained a photo and a note!

"Hehe, this is strange. In the past, Tony, the lecher, always had us catch women. Why is he changing his taste and wanting us to catch a man this time?" Xiu Ge looked at the photo in his hand and said with a strange expression.

"Xiu Ge, let me see!" The bespectacled man also took the photo and note from Xiu Ge with interest and examined them carefully.

After finishing, he casually passed them to the people beside him and said calmly, "You guys, look at the person in the photo. Our next target is him!"

Then, everyone passed the photo around, and finally, it reached Chen Wu (Bu Yuanshan).

Chen Wu had been hiding in the back, not daring to speak, as he was the reason his brothers had died. He was afraid the boss would vent his anger on him. However, after seeing the photo, Chen Wu's expression became strange.

"Boss, I think I know him!" After hesitating for a while, Chen Wu finally decided to speak up.

"What, you know him? Chen Wu, who is this guy?" Xiu Ge looked at him in surprise and then asked calmly.

Although they never considered the identity of their targets, it would be better to know their true identities, especially since there were many people in the Eighth Base City they couldn't afford to offend.

"Um, I can't say I know him, but I've seen him. Boss, this guy is the stable boy at Bu Family Manor!" Chen Wu answered in a low voice.

"Stable boy?"

Xiu Ge snatched the photo from Chen Wu, looked at it, and then recalled the stable boy he had seen before he died, matching the image.

"Everyone, take a look and see if it's the stable boy!" Xiu Ge passed the photo to the four brothers who had died with him today and said in a deep voice.

"It seems to be him. If it weren't for Xiao Wu mentioning it, I wouldn't have noticed!"

"Although the ancient costume is different from modern attire, it should be the same person!"

"Boss, I died too quickly and didn't see..." Another person weakly replied. He was the one who had been killed by Xiangxue with a sword through the throat.

"Playing Jianghu? Xiu Ge, this doesn't seem simple!" After hearing their conversation, the bespectacled man adjusted his glasses again and said softly.

His words made Xiu Ge's expression turn serious. They were also aware of some information about Jianghu.

Currently, Jianghu was still in the testing phase, and those who had obtained testing qualifications were either the nobles or their children from various bases, or martial artists like them who had connections with the nobles' children.

However, no matter which category they belonged to, it indicated that this young man named Bu Fan was not a simple person, and he wasn't alone. If he really had some background, their actions against him could bring disaster.

"Young Master Tony said that in about ten days, this young man will leave the city with the last batch of troops. At that time, he wants us to carry out the capture plan outside the city. What do you think the possibility is that a young man leaves last?"

"There's only one possibility: someone has specifically arranged it to ensure the young man's safety!" The bespectacled man, now transformed into a Sherlock Holmes, confidently analyzed.

Xiu Ge nodded continuously at his analysis. His brother, though not very strong in martial arts, was quite intelligent. It was thanks to his planning that they had connected with Young Master Tony, so Xiu Ge trusted his analysis.

"But we can't disobey Young Master Tony's orders!" Trust was one thing, but Xiu Ge still dared not defy Young Master Tony's orders.

"Xiu Ge, we can do this: when the time comes, follow Young Master Tony's instructions, find this young man, and observe him secretly for a while. If there's an opportunity, we'll act. If not, we can report the mission as a failure. After all, failing missions isn't a new thing for us!"

"Alright, let's do it that way!" Xiu Ge finally nodded in agreement.

In a quiet room on the street of the West City Square in the Eighth Base City, a group of people were quietly waiting.

If Bu Fan were here, he would recognize them as the ones who had previously clashed with him, including Kuang Hu.

However, at this moment, the seven or eight of them were sitting quietly, not even daring to breathe heavily, as if waiting for the arrival of some important person.

"Young Master has arrived!"

As the voice landed, Qiao Yuhao's figure appeared in the quiet room and sat in front of everyone.

"Young Master!"

After Qiao Yuhao sat down, Kuang Hu and the others immediately called out in a deep voice.

"Kuang Hu, your team is supposed to set out this afternoon, right? Which area's hunting mission have you been assigned to?" Qiao Yuhao said casually after sitting down.

"It's a hunting mission in the C22 area, 150 kilometers northwest of the city. The mission requires us to kill at least 200 second-stage zombies, 50 third-stage zombies, and at least 10 fourth-stage zombies or an equivalent number of mutated beasts!" Kuang Hu respectfully replied to Qiao Yuhao.

"Ha ha, the mission seems quite simple, and C22 area isn't even a red danger zone!" Qiao Yuhao said with a light laugh.

The so-called red danger zone was a color marked on the map by the federal government. Safe areas were covered in white, general danger areas in blue, high danger areas in yellow, and extremely dangerous areas in red. Unexplored areas were marked in black.

These different colored zones provided the base exploration teams with danger levels, making it easier for adventurers in the city to go out and hunt zombies or mutated beasts.

"Thanks to Young Master's help, we will never forget Young Master's kindness!" Kuang Hu immediately took the opportunity to express his loyalty to Qiao Yuhao!

He was well aware that without Qiao Yuhao's help, they would never have been able to obtain such a simple mission.

"Good, since that's the case, I have one more task for you this time!" Qiao Yuhao nodded in satisfaction at Kuang Hu and said.

"This is Bu Fan's next mission area. I want you to find him immediately after completing your mission."

"Rest assured, Young Master, I will definitely kill him for you!" Kuang Hu immediately replied, showing a fawning attitude.

"Bullshit!" Qiao Yuhao was furious, kicked Kuang Hu to the ground, and said coldly, "I want you to protect him, not kill him!"
