  "Can she pretend to commit suicide?" Zhao Zhu looked at Zhu Jianping, "I think this shouldn't be very difficult, right."

  "It's okay, just let her take the knife to the first floor where the guests are eating and she can cut her own throat. And she has a special identity, after all, she is from Miaojiang, you know? As long as it involves ethnic issues, the police will suppress the spread of the news and won't have any impact on us. In fact, for people in our group, we are generally not focused on by social forces, unless you're stupid enough to go on a rampage like in 'GTA'." Zhu Jianping said.

  "Alright, let's just go back and order some takeout instead. Dà Xióng, take all the things away and see if there's anything special. Bring everything that catches your eye." Zhào Zhù ordered, with a feeling of not wanting to leave empty-handed.

  "Damn it, Zhao Ge, you're not planning to raise silkworms too, are you? If you do, how can I still live in that house?" Xiong Zhiqi said with a bitter face. Nothing else, just thinking about waking up in the morning and finding his body crawling with caterpillars made Xiong Zhiqi's scalp feel numb.

  "Can't even sell it if I don't cultivate it? I refuse to believe that no one in the group has strengthened their Gu technique."

  "Me too." Xiong Zhiqi nodded and went to pack his things.

  Zhu Jianping then hypnotized Rui Si to go downstairs to the first floor, preparing to take a knife from the kitchen to perform a public suicide scene, while Zhao Zhuo went one step ahead to settle the bill at the front desk on the first floor and then returned to the car to wait for them.

  Soon after, Zhu Jianping and Xiong Zhiqi walked out together. Judging from the expressions on their faces, everything should have been settled properly.

  "Alright, I've just ordered takeout, three portions of mixed fried rice. The delivery guy should arrive by the time we get home." Zhao Zhu said as he started the car.

  As expected, when the car entered the neighborhood, a young man with a takeout box was seen preparing to go upstairs. Zhao Zhu called him down and confirmed it before taking over the takeout and returning to the house. Xiong Zhiqi went to arrange for the bionic insect and also took on the task of finding the buyer in the group. Zhu Jianping and Zhao Zhu sat at the dinner table and started eating first.

  "Zhao Dashao, I was really touched when you came to the school gate to pick me up and we had a big meal together. My nose even felt a little sour." Zhu Jianping said after taking a sip of Sprite and swallowing his food.

  "Hmm, and then?"

  "Then I never thought that in the end I still ended up going back home to eat takeout with Sprite, completely wasting my own emotions." Zhu Jianping had a look of being deeply hurt.

  "It's fine once you get used to it."

  "I'm getting used to it, from now on wherever you go, Zhao Dashi, I won't accompany you. Can't always be with you to see ghosts, I can't let myself get scared out of my wits."

  "Are you still scared? Aren't you nicknamed 'crazy' in the group?"

  "In a group, in the task world, sometimes pretending to be impulsive and crazy is also a way to protect oneself. You can't always be a yes-man and then get sold out and help others count their money. You have to learn to be like a mad dog."

  "Yes, that makes sense."

  "Alright, after I finish dinner I'll head to school, you guys continue playing at home."

  "Those things you took from that monk, don't you want to take a look at them first? After all, it's your turn to enter the task world soon." Zhao Zhu reminded.

  "No rush, I'll take a look when I get back from school tonight. This afternoon is just enough time to catch up with my English teacher and rekindle old friendships. There are still several teachers I haven't met yet, it's been a while since we last saw each other, I'm really missing them."

  Zhao Zhu heard this and just shrugged his shoulders, not speaking. Indeed, there was nothing to say to someone whose mind was full of semen.

  Xiong Zhiqi came out to eat after packing up his things and found that Zhu Jianping was already gone. He asked, "Has Jingzi run away?"

  "Uh-huh."

  "I've used the Soul-Enchanting Incense on the worm, and if it doesn't get stimulated, it can sleep for a month without any issues." Jing~worm and worm refer to two types of worms, and both Xiong Zhiqi and Zhao Zhu understand this.

  "Alright."

  "I also sent messages to a few potential buyers in the group, and I estimate that there will be news tonight. When we get the points vouchers, the three of us will split them equally."

  "You deal with it, you have more experience than me."

  "Also, Zhao Ge, I didn't put a price on that Blood Jade. That Blood Jade is useful to me, my hand needs it to nourish." Xiong Zhiqi said somewhat awkwardly, clearly he wanted the Blood Jade but was too embarrassed to say so.

  "You can take it if you need it, I and Jing ~ insect anyway don't need to use it." Zhao Zhu said was also a fact, he and Zhu Jianping were both spiritual stream strengthening, indeed did not need this blood jade to do anything.

  "Uh, I don't want the meal voucher for selling insects." Xiong Zhiqi started eating with his head down, he was also hungry, after all it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.

  "After dinner, let's go study that handprint together. I wonder if someone like me who has only initially strengthened their spiritual power can bring out the might of the handprint?" Zhao Zhu asked.

  Xiong Zhiqi swallowed the food in his mouth, thought for a moment, and said: "Hand seals are a way of releasing certain properties or abilities within one's body in a specific way. What you release should be more spiritual in nature, so the hand seals you practice should also be specialized in dealing with intangible entities like ghosts. Against physical bodies, your hand seals are basically useless unless your spiritual power has become strong enough to materialize and crush them. However, as far as I know, even the most skilled practitioners are still far from reaching that level. When he used his Spiritual Storm in the kitchen, those living people just felt a little dizzy."

  "It's enough to deal with ghosts for now, I have a premonition that my next task world will still be supernatural, and somehow I feel like I'm more connected to those dirty things whether in reality or the task world."

  "In the task world of the group, in fact, the proportion of spiritual and mysterious classes is relatively large, accounting for nearly 70%, while the remaining 30% are other classes. Even in some other class task worlds, such as science and technology civilization task worlds, they will give you a specific area, similar to the movie "Hunger Games", where the science and technology civilization is definitely more advanced than our current real world, but in the task world, it won't let you come into contact with this kind of thing. The group owner will directly arrange for you to go to the Hunger Games arena to do tasks and fight."

  "What do you mean?"

  "My point is that the group owner seems to be deliberately suppressing something, which should be in order to maintain a certain balance, a balance that human civilization on earth can bear at present."

  "Doraemon, you know, your image isn't suitable for discussing such serious topics, especially when you're eating."

  "Oh, I'll just eat then."

  After finishing dinner, Zhao Zhu and Xiong Zhiqi flipped through several handprint scriptures together. Zhao Zhu found one that was for dealing with fierce ghosts and secret sects, and the rest were all thrown into Xiong Zhiqi's room.

  Back in his own room, Zhao Zhuo had just tried to follow the commentary on the scripture and set up a few stances and walked a few steps when the phone rang, showing that it was his mother calling.

  Zhao Zhu answered the phone:

  "Mom?"

  "Ah, how have you been lately?"

  "It's okay, I'm staying at my friend's place."

  "Mom called to tell you some good news. Your dad said that the confidentiality level of your hospital incident has been lowered, and your identity can be restored."

  "Oh, okay."

  Actually, Zhao Zhu didn't have much to get excited about either, and whether or not he could recover his identity wasn't something he was particularly concerned about.

  "Also, the day after tomorrow is your aunt's birthday party. Your aunt specifically asked you to go, saying that she hasn't seen you in a long time. You used to study abroad, but now you're back in the country working, so this time you must see her."

  "Mom, I've been busy lately and haven't been..."

  "Xiao Zhu, this time it's your dad who has spoken up. You and your cousin are still engaged, no matter how you've been fooling around abroad or now, finding women. Your future and your cousin's future still require you to personally sit down and have a clear talk. This time, if you don't come, your dad will definitely be angry. You also know that your dad's health has not been good lately... my body..."

  "Alright, alright, Mother, don't curse yourself anymore. I'll go, the day after tomorrow is fine, you send me the address and I'll definitely be there."

  "Alright, I've already booked your flight ticket for you, you'll be flying to Shanghai tomorrow."

  "Alright, that's it, 88."

  He hung up the phone, took a deep breath, and walked to Xiong Zhiqi's house. He knocked on the door, and Xiong Zhiqi quickly opened it. At this time, he was bare-chested, revealing a layer of fat, and his body was still dripping with sweat. In his hand, he was still holding a Buddhist scripture, apparently having just practiced as well.

  "My mom called me and I'm going to Shanghai for a gathering. How about you? Want to come with me?"

  "Alright, no problem, anyway I'm going to enter the task world soon. It's also boring for me to be alone at home."
