Chapter 29: Plundering Luck Points, 77% of progress completed.
Xia Mo nimbly leaped down from the tree and landed directly in the wolf pack's encirclement.
The wolves clearly felt the oppressive force emanating from Xia Mo, and tensed up in fear.
At the end of summer, Xia accurately located the smartest alpha wolf in the pack and said, "You can't eat people."
The alpha wolf howled at Xia Mo in resentment, as if vividly saying: Human, our affairs are none of your business.
Xia Mo gave his instructions, turned around, and leisurely walked past Zhao Chunfa, heading in the direction away from the deep mountains, completely ignoring Zhao Chunfa lying on the ground, barely alive.
She tried to stop him, but if Zhao Chunfa was ultimately eaten by wolves, then that was Zhao Chunfa's fate.
Hee hee
Zhao Chunfa watched in despair as Xia Mo walked out of the wolf pack as if she were in an empty place, with not a single wolf daring to stop her or attack her.
Zhao Chunfa regretted it, but he didn't want to die.
Zhao Chunfa rolled over and struggled to crawl towards the foothills.
He doesn't want to die! He refuses to die!
After getting out of Zhao Chunfa's sight, Xia Mo took a detour and headed towards Anping County.
With divine guidance, she accurately chose a deserted path.
* * *
Anping County —
At the end of summer, she took out a handkerchief to cover her mouth and lips, revealing her eyes and full forehead.
Xia Mo casually tidied up the stray hairs on her forehead, letting them cover her forehead and willow-leaf eyebrows. With her face covering, others could only see her eyes.
Xia Mo's eyes lost their playfulness and cuteness, replaced by indifference, and the aura she exuded changed accordingly.
Those passing by Xia Mo were unaware that they were subconsciously distancing themselves from her.
At the tea stall outside the carriage shop in Anping County—
At the end of summer, he took out two coins and placed them on the table, saying, "A pot of water will suffice."
The stall owner looked at Xia Mo curiously for a moment, then brought over a pot of plain water.
It's rare to see a girl sitting alone at a tea stall, so her appearance at the end of summer felt somewhat abrupt.
As summer drew to a close, he closed his eyes and began to rest.
Seeing that Xia Mo didn't speak or move, the stall owner glanced at her for a moment, then stepped aside and continued with other tasks.
In addition to selling horse-drawn carriages, the carriage shops in Anping County also offer carriage rental services.
The wealthy merchants and landlords in the county had their own carriages and didn't need to rent them, but there were many more who didn't have carriages but wanted to travel far, so they had to come to the carriage shop to rent a carriage or ride in one.
If Xia Mo wanted to know if there were any other prefectures or counties besides Anping County, he only needed to sit at this tea stall and listen for information using his divine sense.
Xia Mo's divine sense probed out and entered the carriage and horse shop—
In the courtyard of the carriage shop...
“Last time I hauled a cartload of mountain goods to Anning Prefecture. The purchase price was fifty taels, and after selling them, I only made fifteen taels. After deducting the cost of renting the carriage, it was like I didn’t make any money. It was a wasted trip.”
“Anning Prefecture is only ten kilometers away from here, a day’s journey, so it won’t fetch a good price. If we want to get a good price, we have to take it to a county or prefecture that doesn’t have many mountain products.”
"..."
The two traveling merchants were talking in the courtyard of the carriage shop. Their conversation was still going on, and Xia Mo had already withdrawn his divine sense.
She has received the message she wanted.
Xia Mo got up and left.
The tea stall owner stared at Xia Mo's petite figure, puzzled.
Xia Mo was thinking about the ten-kilometer distance. With her current speed, she could cover one kilometer in a quarter of an hour. If she wanted to run to the prefectural city, it would take her an hour and a quarter of an hour, and a round trip would take two and a half hours, which was too long!
She needs an afternoon to get this done!
She couldn't stay out too late, otherwise her parents would worry about her going out alone and would have to ask her third brother to watch over her again.
And she... didn't want Xia's father and the others to worry.
Xia Mo stopped two streets away from the Wei family in Anping County, leaned against the wall by the street, and lowered his eyes.
She extended her divine sense over long distances, afraid of putting pressure on her fragile body. She was currently within Anping County, and using her divine sense to investigate Wei Jia was effortless.
In the courtyard where Wei Jia and Ma Yiyi lived—
At the end of summer, Xia Mo saw Ma Yiyi practicing calligraphy on paper with a brush, while in front of her was a light screen.
On the screen, there was a barrage of comments criticizing Ma Yiyi's terrible handwriting.
The burly man said: "I could write better with my feet than the anchor! It's terrible! Terrible, terrible, terrible..."
He took a punch and said: "Tsk, streamer, you're the worst we've ever seen. You're useless at everything except eating. You're just trash, an idiot..."
……
Ma Yiyi found it hard not to pay attention to the words on the screen. She clenched her teeth in distress, her eyes reddened, and she almost cried out of grievance.
Xia Mo took in all of this through her divine sense and simply couldn't understand this live streaming system, nor could she understand Ma Yiyi, who would rather be a monkey to be played with than a decent person.
That is, at this moment...
A pop-up window appeared on the screen in front of Ma Yiyi...
The pop-up window reads: You have a new task, do you want to accept it?
The screen window changed, from the live broadcast interface to the task interface.
Xia Mo frowned. "The live-streaming system is even giving out tasks?"
On the screen, the task progress is displayed on the task receiving interface.
At the end of summer, I saw something written on the screen...
Mission: Plunder Luck Points, progress 77%, streamer needs to keep up the good work!
Xia Mo's gaze became vacant, as if something had exploded in her mind, and her heart pounded violently.
Plunder luck points?
Did Ma Yiyi steal 77% of her luck?!
When Xia Mo understood this, her heart pounded violently, but she quickly calmed down and revealed a sweet smile beneath her mask.
Even if it's just some vague and ethereal fortune, it's not something anyone can touch!
Ma Yiyi clicked on the latest task.
To embarrass the end of summer, I completed the calligraphy task as a reward.
Ma Yiyi had long been fed up with the ridicule from the viewers in the live chat. Upon hearing that she could achieve some success in calligraphy simply by embarrassing Xia Mo, she accepted the task without hesitation.
Xia Mo's lips curled into a mocking smile.
The words that belittled Ma Yiyi on the screen played a crucial role, driving her to do things against her conscience in order to achieve a minor success in calligraphy.
As summer drew to a close, Xia Mo turned her gaze toward the secluded courtyard where "Young Master Wei the Third" resided.
"Young Master Wei" frowned, as if he sensed being watched, and shut his mouth while he was giving his instructions.
Jiang Feng, one of his personal guards, remained silent, unaware of the situation.
Xia Mo curiously scanned "Young Master Wei the Third" with her divine sense.
"Young Master Wei the Third" possesses a strong spiritual consciousness and is actually capable of cultivation. However, due to his current special fortune, he is restrained by the Heavenly Dao and is unable to cultivate.
Since "Young Master Wei the Third" felt that he was being watched, he could no longer give orders to his subordinates, so there was no point in Xia Mo keeping his divine sense here any longer.
Xia Mo withdrew her divine sense, looked up at the sky, and realized she couldn't stay in Anping County any longer; she had to hurry back to her village.
As Xia Mo's consciousness departed, "Third Young Master Wei," also known as Huangfu Qian, immediately sensed it.
Huangfu Qian's brows furrowed with annoyance as he asked, "Have you found a master?"
The master was a wandering Taoist priest, which is why Huangfu Qian stayed here.
