The whole weird world is waiting for me to go to heaven

Chapter 732 Snow Mountain Undercurrent
When Liu Sheng and Li Chu arrived at the study room, they found it was packed with people, gathered in three layers inside and outside, all discussing what had happened.

Not long after, Nangong Wan hurried over with several researchers and waiters.

Liu Sheng noticed that Ruan Shizhi was also following behind him, but he kept his head down and didn't dare to look at anyone.

As soon as Nangong Wan arrived, she immediately ordered the scene to be blocked off.

All outsiders were immediately dispersed, and even several monks were driven out, with dissatisfaction on their faces.

But Nangong Wan ignored it and just took people into the training room and never showed up again.

So Liu Sheng didn't see anything at all, he just heard a few waiters next to him say that the three words "Don't listen" were written all over it.

Hearing this, Liu Sheng and Li Chu looked at each other, their eyes full of awe.

"By the way, which training hall are you from?" a waiter noticed the two of them and asked with a puzzled look.

She saw that the two young men were fair and good-looking, not at all like the waiters who had been working in the snow-capped mountains for years and were tanned. If they hadn't been wearing the waiters' gray cloth robes, she would have thought they were outsiders who had sneaked into the mountains.

"We just came in." Liu Sheng replied.

When the waiter heard this, he immediately said "Oh" meaningfully.

"You were specially recruited this time... No wonder."

"I heard that the jobs for you newcomers are very easy. You are served as soon as you come in, unlike us who are busy all day and exhausted like dogs." Another waiter muttered in dissatisfaction.

"It's just that the young master and young lady are here to enjoy themselves." Another waiter sneered in a low voice.

Hearing that it was a new waiter, more and more waiters gathered around with scrutinizing eyes.

In Liu Sheng's opinion, it even seemed a bit unfriendly.

At this moment, a cold and stern rebuke sounded from a distance: "What are you all doing here? Aren't you going to work?"

The waiters felt a chill down their spines and quickly dispersed.

"Oh no, it's Du Yue'e!" the waiter who had just spoken to her muttered in a low voice.

Liu Sheng was shocked when he heard this: Du Yue'e?
【aunt?】

[No wonder the voice sounds so familiar. ]

Liu Sheng raised his head and saw that it was indeed Du Yue'e.

She was wearing a cultivator's fur cloak, and the four ridges on her badge indicated that she was already at the fourth level.

Because of the extreme climate on the snow-capped mountains, her appearance was no longer as beautiful and charming as when she was raised in a secluded boudoir. Instead, she looked much older - her hair was dry and gray, her skin was slightly dark, and wrinkles appeared at the corners of her eyes.

[It seems that without Ling Fu, Du Yue'e would have embarked on a completely different life path...]

Du Yue'e glanced around and her eyes fell on Liu Sheng and Li Chu. She frowned slightly and said, "You...are the newcomers I saw in the illusion, right?"

Liu Sheng and Li Chu bowed quickly.

"Why did you come here? As far as I know, Senior Sister Nangong has special arrangements for you." Du Yue'e narrowed her eyes and spoke in a hostile tone.

Liu Sheng was slightly stunned, and said calmly: "Senior, we have something to ask Senior Nangong."

"Just tell me what it is." Du Yue'e's eyes were slightly cold, with a smile on her lips.

But Liu Sheng saw what happened today and it seemed that Nangong Wan didn't want others to get involved in the death of the fifth-level researcher, so the same logic applies...

So she cupped her hands and said, "I'm afraid it's inconvenient..."

"Why, you can tell Nangong something, but you can't tell me? You should know that you belong to Xueshan, not Nangong alone." Du Yue'e said coldly, "What's more, I think the elders who support Nangong are probably regretting it now."

Liu Sheng remained silent.

When the other waiters saw Du Yue'e coming, they had already retreated away, and they dared not even listen to what Du Yue'e said.

Du Yue'e wanted to say something else, but suddenly she heard Nangong Wan's voice coming from behind her, cold and unquestionable:
"Junior Sister Du, the elders said that I will be solely responsible for the arrangement of the new waiter. If you have any objections, please raise them at the training meeting."

Liu Sheng looked over and found that the waiter who had just been talking to him was now standing behind Nangong Wan. It was obvious that she had gone to tip off. Du Yue'e's eyes became colder and narrowed slightly.

"Nangong, although your project has passed the seminar, you should know that there is only one vote difference between you and me." She said in a cold tone, "I want to see how far your project can last."

"Death...I'm afraid it's just the beginning."

After Du Yue'e finished speaking, she glared at Liu Sheng and Li Chu, then walked away in anger.

[It seems that the interior of the snow mountain is not solid as well...] ​​Liu Sheng thought to himself.

Nangong Wan turned her gaze and looked at the two of them, her brows slightly furrowed.

"Come with me."

Liu Sheng originally thought that he could go into the study room to take a look, but Nangong Wan obviously didn't want them to be involved in this matter, so he took them to a study room next door.

She walked into the room and calmly said to the person who was studying, "Borrow it for a while."

When the first-level researcher saw that it was Nangong Wan, he immediately stood up respectfully, left with two waiters, and vacated the room.

Nangong Wan closed the door, turned around and asked directly: "What's going on? Why did you run here?"

At this time, Liu Sheng spoke: "Yu Fan is dead."

Nangong Wan's eyes suddenly fixed.

"He committed suicide." Liu Sheng added, "The room is full of..."

"No need to say more." Nangong Wan took a deep breath and raised her hand to interrupt Liu Sheng.

"You guys go back first." She said in a deep voice.

"But why did this happen?"

Li Chu couldn't hold back and uttered such a long sentence for the first time.

Nangong Wan shook her head: "I can't tell you, otherwise it will affect the results, do you understand?"

"Senior Nangong," Liu Sheng bowed and asked respectfully but firmly, "Now that fifth-level researcher has also died, and his situation is very similar to Yu Fan's. Does this mean that the dangers of this work should be fully disclosed to avoid further tragedies?"

Nangong Wan's expression softened a little, and she said, "Su Man should have reminded you that you must stop when you hear the bell. This is the only way to avoid danger."

Liu Sheng then realized that the waiter's name was "Su Man". She did mention it briefly at the beginning, but did not explain it in detail.

However, after these few days of experience, Liu Sheng gradually realized that listening to those noises for a long time would indeed disturb the mind.

Only people like her who have strong mental resilience can barely hold on, but for those with less resilience, four hours is the limit.

Li Chu's face turned pale instantly, and he murmured in a low voice: "So that's it... So that's it... Yu Fan told me that he was anxious to participate in the project, so he wanted to give it a try..."

Nangong Wan showed a look of understanding.

Liu Sheng sighed softly, and vaguely guessed the ins and outs of the matter.

"You go back and don't tell anyone else about this. I will arrange someone to handle it." Nangong Wan said without question.

She paused, then said in a cold voice, "Also, you have violated the rules by going out without permission. This matter cannot be let go. You must accept the punishment - confinement in the White Tower for three days."

"What?" Li Chu was anxious and wanted to explain, "We just..."

Liu Sheng gently pulled his sleeve, signaling him not to say anything more.

Nangong Wan's eyes flashed with surprise. She glanced at Liu Sheng and then said calmly, "I did this to protect you. I recruited you because I need helpers, not consumables."

"Won't our progress fall behind?" Li Chu said anxiously.

"Don't worry, I'll only be more anxious than you."

After saying that, Nangong Wan pushed the door open and walked out, instructing two waiters to take Liu Sheng and Li Chu to the White Pagoda.

The two waiters seemed to have received Nangong Wan's instructions. Along the way, no matter how the two men tried to probe and ask, they remained silent.
