Oh no! Seven kids at the start, all yellow and skinny.

Chapter 273 Twitching all over

Yunyi dared not agree to the old man's request immediately. After all, it was a trip to the Western Regions, not a quick visit to the next village. Even if everything went smoothly, it would take about three to five months. If something happened, it would take even longer. Of course, the most important thing was that if something really happened, it would be impossible to find anyone.

This matter needs to be discussed with the Xiao family before we can proceed.

Xiao Taihe understood, so he decided to go back to the village with Yunyi.

Yunyi then had Shijiu send a message home, saying that Xiao Linchuan and his wife didn't need to come to pick her up, and she would take her back with her.

However, before returning home, Yunyi still had to give the Bai family a big gift.

The person who caused trouble at the teahouse is dead, but it's obvious who did it, since no one else has the ability to use Gu worms or command assassins.

Tianyang City is a bit far, so I'll start by taking down Bai Wu.

Bai Wu didn't die. He's been staying home to recuperate these past few days, and his men have become much more obedient as well.

But this doesn't mean they've reformed and become good people.

“Hei Yun is doing nothing.” Standing outside Bai Wu’s house, Hong Yi curled her lip. “Keeping someone like that around is just asking for trouble.”

"It's alright, I didn't take her words seriously anyway." Yunyi stroked her chin. "Besides, she has someone backing her. Even if someone like that surrendered, I wouldn't dare to take her."

"So what are we going to do tonight?"

"How about we kill Bai Wu and frame Hei Yun?"

Hong Yi's lips twitched: "You want to lure out the person behind Black Cloud? But personally, I think Black Cloud is a pawn to be discarded. We might as well just kill them all."

"Simple and direct," Yunyi gave a thumbs up, "but it still feels a bit too cruel."

Hongyi couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"Alright, I'll go in and take a look around first. When I come out, call someone." Yunyi patted Hongyi on the shoulder. This little girl came at the right time. She was very compatible with her. If they retired in the future, they could go out together to rob the rich and help the poor, and then grow old together.

Hong waved her hand.

Yunyi leaped into the courtyard. She had been there before, so she knew the way well.

She didn't get many good things the first time she came, so this time she has to clean it all out, so that it won't be in vain that she cleared out ten square meters of space.

Organizing a space is a really tiring task. Fortunately, you don't have to actually lift a finger, but you do need to use your brain and energy.

People in this era like to use boxes to pack things. The things she collected included dozens of boxes, and after organizing them, she had more than fifty empty boxes.

However, the boxes that contained these things were made of good wood. After sanding and painting them again, they would make a nice gift.

This tidying up created extra space, allowing for more storage.

Before he even reached the warehouse, he heard an electric shock in his mind.

[Boss, boss, calling for the boss.]

What's wrong with you in the middle of the night?

Boss, I've found a vulnerability.

What vulnerability?

[When I separated from the main system, it wasn't a clean separation.]

[What does this mean?] Yunyi stopped in her tracks. Sixteen's words meant something was amiss. The residual energy from last time had given her the ability to perceive auras, but this time…

[It means I can use that lingering connection to extract some energy from the main system, and then...]

[And then what? I'm busy right now, so say it quickly if you can, otherwise it'll be dawn soon.]

I think I can upgrade your space a little.

Yunyi's eyes lit up: "[Sixteen, if you can really get me a three-bedroom apartment, I'll never scold you again.]" Her requirements weren't high; she just wanted a three-bedroom apartment and didn't want a villa or anything like that.

[Hehe, hehe.] Sixteen laughed, a little guilty. [How about I give it a try?]

Let’s try it.

"Um... there might be some side effects."

【What side effects?】Yunyi suddenly had a bad feeling.

That means there might be an electrical leak, and then you might experience twitching.

Yunyi's lips twitched. So, she can withstand electric shocks? That's very dangerous right now: [Then let's try again tomorrow.]

But I have a feeling that this connection will be severed soon. The main system must have noticed, so I have to act quickly, otherwise...

How long will that take?

[It might take ten minutes if you're slow, but only one or two minutes if you're fast.]

Yunyi glanced around, then leaped into an empty room nearby. For safety, she climbed onto a beam and secured herself with ropes: "Let's try." Even if someone came, they wouldn't notice. Ten minutes should be enough.

【I'll try it then.】

As soon as Sixteen finished speaking, Yunyi felt a tingling sensation all over her body. At first, it was quite mild, but gradually the energy level increased. Without even looking at her, it was clear that she was having an epileptic seizure, her whole body convulsing.

Yunyi cursed Sixteen in her heart, but unfortunately, Sixteen couldn't hear her at all, or if she could, she could only pretend to be dead.

And as they say, nothing is more coincidental than a story unfolding at that moment. Footsteps were heard outside, and then the door creaked open, and two people slipped in.

Yunyi's native language is speechless. Please don't let her encounter any more adultery scenes, or she'll easily get a sty. Her body is only fourteen years old now; she's still a child.

Fortunately, Heaven may have heard her prayer, so the people below were not a man and a woman, but two women. As soon as they spoke, Yunyi realized that they were acquaintances.

"Sister, that Bai Wu is useless now." It was Hei Ning who spoke, her tone somewhat disdainful. "He's completely useless. These past few days, he's been suffering so much from having to make dowry ...

"You brat, this isn't for you to enjoy," Hei Yun said in a low voice. "Later I'll find you ten or eight men to make you completely satisfied."

"My sister is the best." Hei Ning smiled. "How much longer?"

"All we need to do is find the treasure map he has."

"But he was very meticulous and never mentioned it. I searched his room thoroughly but didn't find any hidden compartments or secret rooms."

“The master’s information is correct; you still haven’t found the right place.”

"You only talk about treasure maps, but I don't know what they look like, so how do I find them?"

"Master said it was left over from the previous dynasty. The treasure map was divided into eight parts, one of which is in Bai Wu's hands." Hei Yun's voice was lowered again. "Master said that as long as we find this part, we will have made a contribution and will be taken to the capital. Maybe we can even get a title then."
