Chapter 796: Hunting at Dawn (12)

The people in the room hadn't managed to get a hold of the situation yet.

"What the hell are you!" someone finally shouted. "He killed Dai Zhi. Kill these two people."

The guy looked even more irritated and raised the gun to fire at the people nearest to him. Every single shot was accurate. He hit them right in the middle of their foreheads.

The people in the house all fell to the floor. The man didn't move at all.

The guy threw his gun away and walked over from where he was standing. There was a basement door behind him. That was where he came up from.

The guy didn't look at Ming Shu. He bent down and searched for something on Dai Zhi's body.

He frowned deeper when he didn't find what he wanted. He looked impatient.

"Why are you not running away? Are you waiting for me to kill you?" The man suddenly raised his head and looked at Ming Shu.

"Oh, how do you want to kill me?" Ming Shu smiled. "Cut me into pieces or tear my limbs off?"

"I won't kill a woman." The guy searched the bodies of the other people on the floor. "Hurry up and get away."

However, even after he finished searching the last person, he didn't find what he wanted.

The impatience on his face was almost seeping out. He kicked Dai Zhi forcefully and muttered, "Liar."

No one knew who he was referring to.

Padapada—

Footsteps came from upstairs.

It was too quiet below so the people upstairs came down to check out of worry.

The guy glanced at Ming Shu and then turned and rushed into the basement. He closed the basement door on the way.

Ming Shu: "..."

Ming Shu turned around and faced the man in camouflage who came down. "Will you believe me if I say I didn't kill these people?"

A bullet replied to Ming Shu.

–

"... You killed all of them?" Hao Zi looked at the bodies on the floor. It looked really scary.

Ming Shu pointed at the side. "Those are still alive."

Su Tai looked down at the corpses. "You didn't kill them. Who was it?"

All the corpses were shot in the head.

He had seen Ming Shu shooting before. She was not very interested in guns. Hence, her marksmanship was just okay. She would never be so accurate.

"I didn't recognize him," Ming Shu said with an honest face. She squatted in front of the people that were tied up. "Do you all know a guy in a black shirt who has very accurate marksmanship?"

The man in camouflage who got asked was confused.

"He looks quite handsome," Ming Shu added on. "There is a phoenix-like tattoo on the back of his hand.

The man beside said in a scared voice, "Yuan Ye... it's Yuan Ye."

"Yuan Ye? Who is he?"

The man in camouflage clothing shook his head. "We don't know, either. When we met him, he was very weak. Dai Zhi said that there were good things on him and brought him along. Then, Dai Zhi took the chance to snatch all his things and then... killed him."

How could a dead person appear again?

The man in camouflage clothing shivered. Did he become a zombie?

[Additional Task: Gain Hatred Points from Yuan Ye.]

Ming Shu raised her eyebrows slightly.

Apparently, no one present heard this name before.

Ming Shu went up to find Ye Xiangsi.

These people were all tricked into going along with those men. They heard that they would be sent somewhere, but they were not sure what they were needed for.

They just wanted women and children. As for men, they would either kill them... or eat them.

When Hao Zi heard this, he started feeling sick . It seemed as though he had eaten them too.

Ye Xiangsi was puzzled. She didn't know why Ming Shu was looking for her.

Ming Shu sat on a small stool and faced Ye Xiangsi. "Do you have a space which has a tree inside that can bear fruits? Since I saved you, can you give me one? You... you can also give some conditions. I will exchange with you."

Ye Xiangsi's expression changed totally.

Ming Shu was so detailed.

It was as though she saw it herself.

"Don't ask how I know. I have no interest in your space. I am only interested in the fruit." Ming Shu cleared all of Ye Xiangsi's suspicion.

She quickly calmed down from her astonishment. She bit her lip and said slowly after a while, "You saved everyone. I should give you one."

She carefully took out a fruit and gave it to Ming Shu.

She could feel the rich reiki from the fruit the minute it was in her hands.

"Give me more chances to save a beauty next time." Ming Shu smiled and got up. "This is for you."

Ye Xiangsi: "..." What did she mean by giving her more chances to save a beauty?

Ming Shu gave Ye Xiangsi a dagger.

When she took it, Ye Xiangsi felt that the dagger was different from an ordinary item.

It felt the same as her fruit.

Ming Shu left the room and passed the fruit to Little Beastie. Little Beastie held it for a while, but didn't eat it.

"Why? Don't you like it? I spent a lot of effort to get it. It is not easy to get something from the female protagonist." If this was a cultivation world, it would not have been so troublesome.

Little Beastie said in low spirits,

I am fine.

Ming Shu smiled. "If you don't replenish your energy, no one will save me if I die."

"..."

Little Beastie slowly finished the fruit.
