Chapter 1698: Youre Not Dead

Local areas like this northern part of the country were supposed to have cellars to store some potatoes and sweet potatoes and such.

Ning Shu was looking for a reason to go to the cellar.

Xiao Lan shook her head, Grandmas old, and I cant see. Even though we did plant some vegetables, its not enough to last through winter.

So, theres no food in the cellar? asked Ning Shu.

Xiao Lan shook her head. Actually, theres not much food in the house. Grandma wants you to leave because you are covered in baleful energy and theres not much food in the house. If you dont leave, well all starve to death.

We cant walk in this weather. Ning Shu said, How about we eat one meal a day from now on?

Xiao Lan smiled, but her eyes were vacant. She looked a little creepy while smiling.

When Ning Shu left the kitchen and returned to the living room, the uncle waved at her. Come here.

Ning Shu felt uncomfortable. She moved over slowly. Advisor, what is it?

Youre not dead, said the uncle.

Ning Shu:

The h.e.l.l? What was with this? Not only was he eliminating people, he also had to rub it in?

The corners of Ning Shus mouth twitched. She didnt even know what to say.

Remember, as a task-taker, you have to be able to prioritize in order to make it far. Eternal life comes at a price. The uncle pointed to the chair next to him. Sit down.

Ning Shu sat down, her hair standing on end. She could feel the coldness of the uncles body through his clothes.

Thank you, Advisor. I understand, said Ning Shu sincerely.

The f*ck! Ning Shu really wanted to pound her chest. She was overwhelmed with irritation. After being eliminated, she still had to say thank you.

The uncle looked at Ning Shu, crossed his long legs, and slightly tilted his neck. The sound of his neck cracking made gooseb.u.mps pop up on Ning Shus skin.

Youre afraid of me? The uncle turned to look at Ning Shu.

Ahaha Ning Shu forced a laugh. No.

She straightened her back with her hands on her knees. She was f*cking scared to death. This person next to her dictated the fate of others and had killed her once just last night.

Yet, he was asking if she was scared. Scared?

Yes, she was almost scared to death.

Aaaah

There were screams coming from upstairs. Ning Shu stood up in a hurry. Something had happened again.

As Ning Shu hurried upstairs, 795 thudded down the stairs. He collided with Ning Shu and knocked her to the ground.

Geez, cant you watch where youre going? 795 pulled Ning Shu up. He then anxiously said to the uncle, Someone is dead again. This time, its even more disgusting.

The uncle stood up and strode up the stairs with his long legs.

Ning Shu hurried upstairs and saw the entrance to a room filled with people. Some girls were even leaning against the wall and vomiting.

Ning Shu squeezed into the room and saw a body that was hung upside down. The lower half was naked, and the two legs were tied with ropes. The legs were pulled apart, and a palm-wide saw was used to cut the body. The cut went from the crotch to the abdomen, severing the person in half.

The two hips had been separated, and the saw had reached the navel.

Even more terrifying, the man seemed to be conscious since he was hanging upside down with ample blood to his head to provide oxygen.

He had experienced the saw cut through his body while conscious.
