The atmosphere suddenly became weird at this moment. Everyone in Li Tian no longer felt as relaxed as before. Death is the thing that people fear most after all. Everyone except Li Tian turned pale, but Li Tian had already had it.
Prepared mind.
At this time, the girl who said bad things about Ergou spoke first and said tremblingly, "Assistant Professor Wang, are you saying that we will die too?"
Wang Xiao heard this and shook his head slightly.
"That's not what I'm saying. I'm just giving you a vaccination in advance. I believe you must be very scared at this time, but I also have a cruel reality to tell you. There will be someone secretly supervising you during this mission. If you are found
If you evade or are timid and do not perform your tasks, even if you return to the academy, you will be expelled from the school. Come on, I hope you can all come back safely." Wang Xiao thought that since he wanted to attack, he would do everything.
Explain clearly and let them face the reality thoroughly, so that everyone will do their best to protect themselves, which is also their responsibility.
Wang Xiao's eyes were in a trance, but in his memory, the students were still in high spirits and happily doing their tasks. If someone had warned them like this back then, maybe some of them would have survived.
"I'm not going! The college wants us to die. Stop the car quickly, I want to get off!" The girl couldn't stand it anymore. She stood up and ran to the front of the car and shouted. He knew just from what Wang Xiao said that this trip must be
She narrowly escaped death and she was still so young and didn't want to die.
Wang Xiao did not stop her behavior. He could also understand the girl's psychology at the moment. Fear is normal, and it is better than those people who died in confusion in the past. Besides, things are not without a turn. After all, the mission is different. Maybe the mission of this trip is
It might also be unusually relaxed.
"Mo Qiqi, please calm down. If you go back now, you will be expelled. There is no room for maneuver. Don't be so afraid. Things are not as bad as you think. I am just informing you of the worst outcome in advance. In fact, as long as you
Just be careful and nothing will happen. You have to know that this mission is in Lingyun City after all, so it shouldn't be too dangerous." Wang Xiao comforted patiently. The purpose of following him was not only to inform everyone of the purpose of the mission.
and danger, and more importantly, do a good job of comforting them.
Seeing that there was no way out, Mo Qiqi gradually calmed down, but her eyes were red and there were tears in them. After all, she was just a fifteen or sixteen-year-old child.
Zhao Yinyun and Zheng Qian looked at each other and smiled bitterly. How sloppy!
They then looked at Li Tian, who was still relatively calm. Zhao Yinyun asked, "Brother Li, aren't you afraid?"
Seeing this, Li Tian shook his head slightly and said, "It's all lies if you say you're not afraid, but I almost died outside last night, so it's better to accept it."
If Zhao Yinyun and the others rushed to the door to die on their own, then Li Tian was forced to be guillotined by the college without any room for rejection. He was the most miserable one.
"Don't think too much. You have to know that we are not on a mission. We are just a group of homeless children who want to find a stable job to make a living." Then Li Tian continued.
As soon as these words came out, the calming effect was more than a little better than Wang Xiao's, and everyone's mood improved a lot in an instant.
When Wang Xiao saw this, he immediately agreed, "Classmate Li Tian is right, don't think of it as doing a task, just think of it as a trip, relax and relax."
It's just that at this moment, Wang Xiao is no longer popular with everyone. In the eyes of everyone, he is an accomplice of the college.
Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Wang Xiao had no choice but to scratch his head in embarrassment and choose to shut up.
"Brother Li, why don't you bring us two brothers with you? We will feel safe with you." Zhao Yinyu licked his lips and rubbed his hands, looking like he was following Li Tian's lead.
"Um..." Li Tian was about to answer, but was interrupted first by Wang Xiao in front of him.

"Well... you can't move together. When we get to Ping'an Town, I will put you off the car in batches. Then you just pretend that you don't know each other and do your own thing. It's for your own safety. After all, people It’s too conspicuous.” Wang Xiao said.
As soon as this statement came out, Zhao Yinyu's hope of being in the big picture was directly shattered.
Zhao Yinyu's face fell, and he and Zheng Qian were about to be separated now.
"Young students, don't be afraid. It's just a task. Since you have taken this path of cultivation, how can you be timid? Go ahead bravely. I believe that you in the future will thank you for your bravery today. Come on, you guys It's the best! A wonderful tomorrow is waiting for you!" The bald man driving the car suddenly poured a wave of thick chicken soup for the soul, pouring it on everyone's heads.
Everyone was silent, not knowing how to respond.
Li Tian rolled his eyes and replied, "Uncle, shut up now. Feelings are not your task."
I saw the bald man holding the steering wheel with one hand and stretching out his other hand to scratch his own penis.
"Hahaha, I see that the atmosphere is quite heavy. I want to liven up the atmosphere and encourage you. Since I don't want to hear it, I will shut up."
"Thank you, I was encouraged." Li Tian replied angrily.
People who are not in their current situation cannot understand their mood at this moment. No matter how delicious the chicken soup is, it will not help.
Li Tian was not as calm as he looked. In fact, he was still panicking. If no one was watching and there was no restriction on expulsion, he would not do this task. He would definitely find a place to hide from him. Wait for a week, and then go out and say it afterwards, thank you!
He didn't want to be fired, and then Ergou would follow Yun Zhi and act arrogantly in the academy. He couldn't stand it!
"You are the brother Li Tianli who met Ling Yunzhi of the Academy of Fine Arts, right? We have admired him for a long time." At this time, a sudden voice sounded from the back row.
Li Tian looked back in confusion and saw the man raising his right hand and reaching towards him, wanting to have a close physical contact with him.
"You've got the wrong person. I don't know Ling Yunzhi." He didn't extend his hand, but just replied lightly.
I came to say hello at this time, maybe I didn't want to get close, right? Why weren't you so attentive before? Li Tian thought this in his heart, so he directly interrupted his spellcasting.
If you respectfully call me Brother Li, I can barely ignore you, Brother Li? Sorry, we are not familiar with you!
"Um... didn't Brother Li sell Ling Yunzhi's contact information in the group..."
"No!"
At this time, the man finally realized that Li Tian didn't want to talk to him at all, so he had to smile awkwardly and take his hand back, pretending that nothing happened just now.
Li Tian stopped talking and closed his eyes to rest. He still had to plan and plan how to complete this task.
It was surprisingly quiet along the way. Except for a few acquaintances, no one spoke to each other. The car arrived at the edge of Ping'an Town in a strange atmosphere.
As the brakes were applied, the car slowly stopped.
"Classmates, who among you will get off first?" Wang Xiao turned around and looked at everyone and asked.
This is the first stop, and there are eight more places to go until everyone is dropped off.
Seeing no one answered, Zheng Qian raised his hand first, "I'll go first." After saying that, he stood up and left his seat.
He turned around and patted Zhao Yinyu on the shoulder, "I'll go first. See you at the Marquis Mansion."
Finally, he nodded to Li Tian and then got out of the car.
Zheng Qian left and the car continued to drive towards Ping'an Town.
Li Tian slowly turned his head and looked outside through the car window.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Zheng Qian watched the car go away, then stopped where he was and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
Ping'an Town is very big and lively, which is a bit beyond Li Tian's expectation. People can be seen everywhere on the street. Although it is not dense, it is still full of life.
A town has a large population, and even if hundreds of people disappear, it will not have the slightest impact. Lingyun City chose not to spread the news in order to avoid causing unnecessary panic. The people of Ping'an Town are still living in comfort.
The car stopped and went, and finally arrived at the last stop. At this time, only Li Tian and three people were left in the car.
"Have a nice journey." Wang Xiao said slowly while looking at Li Tian who was getting up.
Li Tian smiled slightly and said, "Yes." After saying that, he also left the car.
Looking at the car that turned around and left, Li Tian couldn't help but feel deeply in his heart.
The sun was blazing in the sky and the surrounding temperature was already very high, so he found a shady place to stand.
He looked around carefully. Everything around him was strange, strange people, and strange places.
He did not rush to the Hou Mansion in a hurry, but wanted to find a small restaurant to settle his stomach problem first, and also to inquire about news.
"Jiangnan Xiaochao" was a small restaurant near where he got off the bus.
He didn't think much and went straight over.
It wasn't lunch time yet, so the store was empty.
Li Tian simply ordered two side dishes from the menu and found a seat to sit down.
The shop is run by a couple, and the boss is a middle-aged man with a white apron hanging in front of him. After Li Tian ordered the dishes, he ran back to the kitchen and started busy.
At this time, only Li Tian and the proprietress were left in a daze, munching melon seeds.
He looked at the absent-minded boss lady and pretended to chat, "Boss lady, I'm from out of town. Is there anything interesting nearby?"
Only then did the proprietress come back to her senses, "Are you here for a trip? There are not many attractions to visit in Ping'an Town, but you can go to the ancient temple. It has a history of three hundred years and there are not many people. It's a tourist attraction. It’s pretty good.”
Li Tian nodded, and then continued, "That's right. By the way, I heard that there is a very big Marquis Mansion in Ping'an Town. Can I visit it?"
The landlady was slightly startled when she heard this, "Hou Mansion? Are you talking about Hou Dashan's house? It's a private house, why would you be allowed to visit it?"
"Hou Dashanren? Who is this Hou Dashanren? Why do you call him Dashanren?" Li Tian asked doubtfully.
"Hahaha, Mr. Hou Dashan is the master of the Hou Mansion. Brother, you are a foreigner and you don't know. In the early years when we were at war between Lingyun City and Tiandou City, we happened to encounter a drought. At that time, we really didn't know how hungry we were.
How many people died? This Hou Dashan came to our Ping An Town at that time. He brought us food and helped us through the darkest days. Alas, my child died of starvation at that time.
Twenty years have passed in a flash, and if he is still here, he should not be much older than you." The landlady said with emotion.
She didn't feel too sad, maybe because so much time had passed, the wounds had long since faded.
"Until now, the good man Hou will send people from time to time to distribute food to the beggars in Ping'an Town. Think about it, several people pull a large carriage around Ping'an Town early in the morning, going to various places
Distributing food where beggars live is a major feature of Ping'an Town, haha."
Li Tian nodded, "So that's it."
It seems that Hou Qingbai is quite noble in the hearts of the residents of Ping'an Town. Is such a person really the culprit of killing hundreds of people? Li Tian hesitated in his heart.
It is unfair to make random guesses without seeing the truth. In this case, it is inevitable to sneak into the Hou Mansion to find out the truth.
