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

Chapter 855 The difference between cloud and mud
Seven days passed quickly.

Captain Hu's smile never faded.

He watched as one strange person after another was escorted out of the house, calmly and woodenly filing into differently marked carriages.

One car after another, driving towards an unknown direction.

"Not bad, not bad. The adults are very satisfied with your work."

Captain Hu's peach blossom eyes narrowed and he praised him as if he was praising a subordinate.

On the surface, no one knew how the adults knew that these strange people had recovered. On the morning of the seventh day, they arranged the carriages to wait in front of the door on time.

However, Liu Sheng knew that the adults' eyes had never left this place.

Wang Liusui was also pulled into the carriage. He looked straight ahead as if he didn't notice the heartbroken look of Old Man Wang behind him.

Captain Hu stepped forward and patted Old Man Wang on the shoulder: "You don't have the qualifications to serve the master, but at least your daughter can, you should be happy."

Old Man Wang avoided his hand, lowered his head and said nothing.

This kind of humiliating submission is exactly what Captain Hu likes most.

By now, most of the weirdos in the house have been sent away, and there are servants from each family watching.

Captain Hu heaved a sigh of relief, and like a victorious general, he led the way back to the house, turned around and chuckled, saying:

"Master Ling, please come in and sit down. The masters have something to talk to you about."

Liu Sheng nodded calmly, and entered the house with Ling Fu, Ruan Shizhi and the old man Wang who lowered his head.

When I arrived at the main room, Chen Shanyuan was already waiting at the door.

"Has the lord arrived?" Captain Hu asked nervously.

Chen Shanyuan nodded, without a trace of unnecessary expression on his scarred face.

Suddenly, Captain Hu looked very happy and rubbed his hands.

Then he looked up at everyone with a triumphant look, and finally looked at Liu Sheng's face, and said somewhat unwillingly:
"Master Ling, please come in with me. The others..."

He snorted coldly: "Not qualified."

No one objected.

Liu Sheng followed Captain Hu and walked into the main hall.

I saw six figures sitting inside, wearing dark cloaks and their faces could not be seen clearly.

But you can vaguely see the snow-white edge under the sleeve.

There are also golden horizontal bars.

I don’t know how many there are, but there must be quite a few.

Liu Sheng understood, stood in the middle and watched from afar.

Captain Hu smiled and bowed respectfully: "I wish you all good health and good luck. I didn't expect you to come. I'm sorry for not welcoming you..."

The man in black robes did not move and did not respond to Captain Hu's enthusiasm.

Captain Hu seemed unaware and continued to shout:

"Quick, serve the tea!"

When the maid brought the tea to the door, he raised his hand to send her away.

He held the tea in his hands, walked forward respectfully, knelt down and served tea to each of them personally, and even almost kissed the backs of the boots of these men in black robes.

Liu Sheng watched coldly and suddenly said:

"You are not adults."

As soon as these words were spoken, Captain Hu, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly froze all over.

What was even more uncomfortable was that a chuckle came from above.

"That's right, we are just people doing things for adults."

The sounds came out layer upon layer, as if they were one. It was impossible to tell the gender, but it sounded hoarse and unpleasant.

"I heard you're a smart guy, and it's true."

During this time, Captain Hu stood up awkwardly and continued to serve tea, but he no longer kneeled.

But when it came to the last person, he was kicked to the ground by the man.

"Don't you like kneeling? Why don't you continue? Just because we are not 'adults'?"

Captain Hu was terrified and begged for mercy: "My Lords, we are all working for you, why should we make things difficult for you..."

Before he could finish his words, a hidden force kicked and broke his knee.

He had to kneel down in an extremely humiliating posture, and was in so much pain that he was speechless.

"Don't drag us into this. Our identities are vastly different from yours." The other party's words were extremely cold.

Captain Hu finally saw the reality. He covered his legs and grimaced, "I, I am the governor's man... You can't... You can't..."

"Don't worry, we won't touch your life. Who asked you to please the governor?" A man in black robe said coldly.

"The governor is just like us. We all work for him, so we will naturally give him some face," another person echoed.

"Then why...why did you attack me?"

Captain Hu felt so wronged that he was about to cry.

There is a slight red in the corners of Peach Blossom's eyes, which really makes people feel pity.

However, the other party only said: "It's nothing, I just don't like you. Who told you to be disrespectful to us and not kneel down honestly? You should know that outside, everyone has to kneel down to us..."

"okay."

The black-robed man sitting in the middle stopped his companion from speaking words that would reveal his identity, and turned to Liu Sheng:

"You don't like Captain Hu, right?"

This is an affirmative statement.

Liu Sheng did not hide his feelings. In the eyes of Captain Hu who looked incredulous, he nodded and said, "That's right."

"So we punished him for you. Are you satisfied?"

Liu Sheng didn't say anything.

"But from now on, we are all people who work for the adults, so we have to let go of some small grudges."

That person's words actually meant that he directly accepted Liu Sheng as his own.

Captain Hu, who was lying on the ground shouting, looked in disbelief. Didn't this mean that this little girl from the snowy mountains had somehow become his superior?
Why?
"I... I risked my life for you, sir. And I was the one who introduced Manager Ling to here. This can also be considered as my credit, right? Why... Why..." Captain Hu was about to cry.

"Because she is smarter than you, more capable than you, and more useful than you."

This sentence completely silenced Captain Hu.

The leading black-robed man turned to Liu Sheng and said, "We have seen your ability. Now, we hope that you will continue to work for us... As long as you work hard and remain loyal, you will get what you never expected. Do you understand?"

After saying this, there was a long pause.

It was as if he was waiting for Liu Sheng to respond with tears of gratitude and bowing down.

However, Liu Sheng shook his head.

"That's not the reason why I came here."

I can actually say no to such an invitation.

Captain Hu was so anxious that his eyes widened and he wished he could take his place.

"We know that you want to secure northern resources for Snow Mountain."

"To tell you the truth, with us, the area outside the North is no longer a restricted area. You can get any resources you want."

"What can be done in the Snow Mountain can also be done in the North."

"What are the conditions?" Liu Sheng asked.

"The condition is that you stay here, replace this idiot named Hu, and continue to complete this plan for us."

The idiot named Hu wanted to refute, but was stepped on.

Liu Sheng didn't even look at it and said calmly: "I don't even know what the plan is."

“You don’t need to know, just understand—it’s grander than you can imagine.”

There was an almost fanatical excitement in the black-robed man's voice.

"Compared to that, what Xueshan wants to do is just a fool's dream and extremely backward."

"You should choose the one with more prospects."

"Anyway, you'll just be a steward when you return to the Snow Mountain."

"Stay here and you will have a position beyond your imagination."

"It's an honor for you that we think so highly of you."

"Don't toast and you'll be fined if you don't eat."

The six men in black robes spoke one after another, and their words were connected to each other, as if they were all thinking the same thing, trying to completely dispel Liu Sheng's doubts.

Liu Sheng smiled coldly.

"You guys say it sounds good, but do I have a choice?"

"I can't leave the North anymore, right?"
