âBrother, donât be angry. We have points. We can buy more props from Guide III, and after we buy more, he can make more profits.â
Yu Hehui consoled him, and what he said elicited everyoneâs unanimous agreement.
âYes, Brother 9 has helped us so much along the way. We canât be ungrateful bastards!â
Wang Pengpaiâs words were surging with righteousness, as he slammed down on the table yet again.
âYes, who would have imagined weâd all survive!â
Miao Fangfeiâs beautiful eyes glittered. Compared to how she was in the beginning, it seemed as if her eyes contained more spiritual power. âWithout Guide III, at least half of us would be dead by now!â
âItâs too frivolous to just say thank you.â
Hou Feihu nodded, taking a glance of the surroundings, and stated gently, âWe must still buy the props, no matter how pricey they are. This is not only for the next part of our tour, but also for the convenience of having these props, similarlyâ¦â
It was not only safer for themselves, but also to contribute to Guide III.
Yeah!
Everyone nodded deeply. Zhao Hongtu snorted coldly, but he didnât rebuke.
âWhen can I start buying?â
At this moment, Yu Hean, who had an impatient disposition, became more impatient. He rubbed his hands and wanted to hold his points, to offer them in front of III-9 immediately.
âIt depends on Guide III.â
âGuide III has the final say on what time we could purchase the goods.â
âOr should we ask him?â
âShould we ask Guide III when heâll start selling the goods?â
âLetâs go find Guide III together?â
After Wang Pengpaiâs suggestion, there was pregnant silence. In this long stretch of time, the tourists looked at each other. Shi Tao smiled dryly.
âHa, haha, I donât think itâd be good to bother Brother 9.â
âAh, yes, yes.â
Miao Fangfei also made merry with a slightly embarrassed smile, âGuide III has worked hard for us all this time and needs a rest.â
âThatâs right, thatâs right.â
âYes, yes.â
All the tourists nodded.
âHiss!â
Lin Xi laughed loudly and disdainfully said, âLook at how scared all of you are. Each one of you looks like youâd be seeing Yama. Itâs not as if Brother 9 would eat humans!â
After saying that, no one knew what was in his mind. He smiled lightly, his eyes shrouded with a layer of puzzlement, and he said to himself, âIf he wanted to eat someone, he would only âeatâ me.â
Disgustââ

Indeed, towards III-9, they were still afraid.
Nobody knew why, but, but they felt that Guide III was not an ordinary person.
Hence, they dared not take the initiative to find him.
.
âPoint of purchase? What is this damned thing?â
On the other hand, Wei Xun, who was staying in the presidential suite again, utilized the VIP experience coupon to wash himself five times. Finally, he couldnât smell the awful stench any more, so he hopped into the bathtub to take a bath.
Just now, when he returned to his room, Wei Xun heard a prompt from the Travel Services.
[Your esteemed self has received a 20% discount]
20% off? What discount?
After washing himself clean, Wei Xun was in a leisurely mood. He went to read the tips the Travel Services gave him. The sight startled him, causing him to almost stand up in the bathtub.
[Your esteemed self has obtained a 20% discount. You can buy goods from Wu Laoliu at a 20% discount, and sell them to tourists for points no more than three times the price of the goods]
[As an employee of the Travel Services, the tour guide represents the image of the Travel Services. Please remain uncorrupted and donât slide into the abyss of corruption!]
â20% off?â
Wei Xun, who was soaking in the bath, unclenched his index finger and thumb. His fingers opened up, while his other fingers curled up. He compared it to the hand gesture of a âgun.â Then he opened his hand. â50% off?â
âOhââ!â
He suddenly realized, âWas that dirty old man bargaining with me?â
âShit, I didnât understand it previously!â
With a whoosh, Wei Xun stood from the bathtub. He was so angry that his mask could not hide his anger. He said indignantly, âDamn, I let him take advantage of me!â
Wei Xun would like to go to Wu Laoliuâs side to argue with him on the spot, but after looking at his freshly washed body and thinking about the smell of dirty blood, maggots, and the rotten stench, heâ¦â¦
He sat angrily back in the bathtub.
âThe old man is a very dirty assailant.â
Wei Xun remembered the scene at that moment. When the old man started punching him, it should have meant, âOriginal price, no discount.â
Then Wei Xun sliced his head off directly.
The old man should be very strong. Although Wei Xun sliced off his head, it obviously didnât kill him. Later, the old man buckled his head and gave a 10% discount. It was not necessarily because Wei Xun sliced off his head.
He was looking at Wei Xunâs left arm.
Left arm, his left arm again.
Wei Xun looked at the bluish-purple butterfly tattoo on his left wristââ
âEh?â
Wei Xun blinked and compared the position of the butterfly tattoo, then tapped his wrist, touched his chin, and said, âThis tattooâ¦â¦itâs climbing up?â
Wei Xun clearly remembered that the tattoo was originally in the middle of his left wrist. Just now, maybe because it was covered by the edge of his open-finger gloves, he didnât manage to observe the changes. But now, the tattoo had âclimbedâ about five centimeters in the direction of his forearm.
It wasnât on his wrist now. It was more accurate to say it was on the inside of the forearm.
âWhat the hell is it?â
Wei Xun became intrigued. Whether it was how he was discovered by the *** customer service crew because of the tattoo, Wu Laoliuâs reaction to him, the power he exhibited when holding the flag in his left arm, or the tattooâs ability to silently climb higher on his arm, they all indicated that this tattoo was not insignificant.
But when Wei Xun tried to ask the Travel Services, he didnât get any response. Up to now, he didnât know what exactly the butterfly fragment was.
If this was from the Travel Services, how did his family get the fragment and eventually keep it for himâDid they forget to take it with them when they left, or did they have a firm faith that Wei Xun would someday come into contact with the Travel Services?
âItâs akin to the Calabash brothers saving their grandpa.â
Wei Xun not only didnât feel strange and creepy, but also was in the mood to laugh here, utterly heartless.
If his parents and brother had been taken in by the Travel Services, he had also been lured in. Their family was not like the Calabash brothers who rescued their grandpa. Were they attempting to pull his family in one by one? It was as if the Travel Services had abducted his entire family.
However, Wei Xun didnât feel much pressureââHis brother was much stronger than him. Wei Xun understood this since he was a child.
When he was ill and was hospitalized in the past, his brother grew up receiving elite education. He learned everything and was good at everything. He was a real genius. In terms of ability and skill, his brother was always the best. It was simply inhuman. He was the one who would eventually inherit their parentsâ business.
If his brother couldnât do it, Wei Xun didnât think he could do it either.
If his brother was here, he would have seen what Wu Laoliu meant at a glance and would not have been fooled by him.
Thinking of this, fury rose within Wei Xun again. He was so angry that Wu Laoliu only gave him a 20% discount.
It was mainly about Wei Xun losing face, not about his points. Currently, Wei Xun had a lot of points.
This was Wei Xunâs current informationââ
[Tour Guideâs Personal Information]
[Code name: III-9 (only in this tour)]
[Rank: Silver-rank Five-stars (III-9âs rank)]
[Countdown to deathââ23:28:56]
[Points: 1855]
[Mental pollution value (SAN): 53]
After killing the zombified flying fox left commander and completing the random task, Wei Xun had 1500 more points!
These 1500 points were not obtained from task rewards, but all brought by his livestream.
[Alive, all tourists are alive!]
At this time, where Wei Xun couldnât see for the time being, the audience in the commentary barrage were still celebrating wildly in the Intoxicating Xiangxi six days five nights livestream.
[My God, I won the bet, I won the bet! No one is dead! What the fuck, is III-9 a God!]
[Shit! I didnât expect, I really didnât expect that they all would survive!]
[There arenât many strong people in the tour group. How can they survive?! I canât believe it!]
[With such a strong tour guide like III-9, if I had to be in the tour group, I would also be able to live! Damn, watching them alive feels great!]
[LMAO, you guys are still celebrating. You guys havenât seen much in the world. Why are you comparing III-9 with II-49? Itâs like you guys are disregarding their difference in ranks and putting an expensive porcelain in an obvious place. Even if they are both in the Intoxicating Xiangxi series tours, the difficulty of their tours should definitely be different]
[III-9 just happens to be lucky! He merely had good luck. All of you are acting happy over such stupid matters??]
As soon as the bombardment of jealousy-filled remarks began, it was quickly smothered by other comments in the onslaught.
[Why? You naysayers probably canât afford to lose. You guys probably lost so much in the gamble you even lost your pants]
[Lmao, penguin meat, just now, didnât some of you say that the Intoxicating Xiangxi tours are very difficult, and III-9 would slaughter everyone in the tour group. Why are you guys changing your tunes? Why are each one of you saying that the tour is easy peasy now? Open your mouth and tell me why]
[How shameful. Scram back to II-49âs livestream room. At least III-9âs livestream room is recommended on the homepage of the app. Why are so many people running to our room? Oh, I forgot. II-49 didnât manage to PK our III-9 just now. It seems as if, currently, itâs being replaced by the recommendations corner of the homepage, right?]
[Hahahahahaha]
[666666!]
Although III-9âs live stream room was boiling now, more than 46000 viewers were celebrating III-9âs tour group, in fact, just a few hours ago, when Wei Xun and his team drove the Jiangshis out of Little Dragon Farmstead, the commentary barrage in the livestream room was one-sidedly dissing themââ
The massive barrage of comments was not optimistic about III-9 and ridiculed everyone who cheered them on.
At that time, the livestream rooms of III-9 and II-49 were both recommended on the homepage of the âAsiaâ section, in the livestream tab of the International Thriller Travel Services!
The International Thriller Travel Services spanned the globe, with a massive number of people far beyond oneâs wildest imagination. The average daily online activity in Asia was about one million, with the livestream tab being the most popular.
Every tour guide who was recommended on the homepage was somewhat renowned and could draw the attention of a large number of people.
âGreat, both of them are contesting against each other.â
In a small town in southern China, on the sixth floor of an ordinary residential building, old Li snuck out of bed to watch the livestream while his wife was asleep.
The app of the International Thriller Travel Services could be projected onto any software, which ordinary people couldnât see except the tourists or tour guides selected by the International Thriller Travel Services.
Old Li projected the livestream tab on the TV. He saw that the screen was divided into two, one on the left and one on the right.
The placard on the left said [Corpse Driving in Xiangxi]. The posterâs white-haired guide was clutching a bright red Tour Guideâs Flag and wearing a bronze ghost mask that revealed just half of his chin. He was pale as a vampire, with slightly hooked lips.
His naked upper body was so white it was shiny. He was very slender and slim, and exquisite black lines that resembled rose thorns could be seen on his lower abdomen. His pallid skin seemed flirtatious and devilish. He was stunning.
Behind him was a queue of green and black Jiangshis dressed in how one would dress in the Qing Dynasty. The rain poured down, the mountains were covered with dark blue fog, and the Jiangshis stood in long lines with their hands on the touristsâ shoulders, walking on the winding and steep mountain road. In the upper right corner of the poster, behind the corpse driving team, countless pale rotten corpses could be seen, quietly following behind with malice.
The poster on the right was [A Veneer in Heavenâs Door], and the contents of the posters appeared like a mirror image to the poster on the left. At the lower right corner of the poster was a tour guide holding a dark green Tour Guideâs Flag. His face was sallow, his cheekbones were prominent, and he had a Southeast Asian appearance. His eyes were like two pills, appearing like black mercury as they stared directly out of the poster, with eyes reflecting his lunacy.
The tour guideâs black hair was raised, and a touristâs neck was wrapped around each strand of his hair. The tourists who were ensnared by him looked like puppets, with agonized and blank expressions. Tianmen Mountainâs main peak was visible behind him. In the highlands, there was a massive cave.
The green and feeble fire light lit both sides of the massive cave of Heavenâs door at the foot of the mountain. The full moon resembled a plate and gleamed right in the middle of Heavenâs threshold, but it vaguely delineated into a white bald fox head with thin brows and eyes.
Just below the two posters were several lines of natural and symmetrical scarlet characters, which were:
[The mysterious farmstead, the mystery of the ferocious bones]
[The corpse of the condemned, a hundred-year hero]
[The ringing sounded faint. In the end, who will be able to achieve what they want?]
[Shh, Corpse Driving in Xiangxi. The living should stay away!]
Below it was:
[Hanging corpses waterfall, hidden trace of miasma]
[A hundred-year-old soul, a thousand-year-old fox spirit]
[Filled with ghostfire, in the end, who is the one who can become an immortal?]
[Sigh, a wonder of the millennium, a veneer into heavenâs door!]
T/N: I would like to share some photos of Xiangxi mountains (Imagine the mountain roads Wei Xun and his tour group are walking on) and Tianmen mountains (the other tour guide (II-49)'s tour).
