Be Strict on Honesty - Chapter 4
In the end, Night Ferry wrote it off as the dancer eyeing his mount, so he sent a mount request and pulled the player onto his mount without a word.
On the way to Chang’an City, he reminded the dancer off-handedly.
[(Friend) Night Ferry: You can join guild now with your current level. Is there a guild you have in mind?]
Yang Juan lowered his head and typed his reply, and did not forget to add the name Zhuo Lan used frequently.
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Night-gege, I want to join your guild.]
Night Ferry found it amusing the first time, but hearing it for the second time, the feeling was not as positive.
But he held back and did not correct the dancer.
[(Friend) Night Ferry: Your level is not enough to join my guild.]
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Night-gege, then can I join the guild after I reach the max level?]
An action should not be attempted more than three times. Night Ferry could not bear it any longer as he instructed the other.
[(Friend) Night Ferry: Talk human with me and stop messaging endearingly.]
Could using the chat log be a mistake? Yang Juan was puzzled and replied honestly.
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Oh.]
After reading their earlier conversation, Night Ferry found the other player more suspicious. He suspected the dancer was an undercover agent, in fact, he was already convinced of the little spy. At present, only the most intuitive evidence was missing.
Before the start of large-scale guild war, inserting spies into rival guilds was a very common method.
Since the opening of this server, Smoke Beacon has dominated the best territory in the whole server. It covers the largest area and contains the largest resource. Therefore, many people have been coveting this fatty piece of meat.
Since he was planning to beat them in their own game, it was no different from fooling a second spy.
Because these two people’s methods were heavens apart.
He did not know which insignificant guild sent him an idiotic player as an undercover agent.
Everything needed step by step process, so he did not try to prob any further.
Five minutes later, Yang Juan received the main quest of [Find the scholar’s missing young servant] from an NPC in Chang’an City.
Xiao He is a servant of Young Master Zhang in the city. Two days ago, Young Master Zhang instructed Xiao He to go to the pavilion outside the city to pick someone up. Xiao He left and never came back.
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: There is so much land to cover outside the city. Do I have to search all the corners?]
[(Friend) Night Ferry: No need.]

The old man stroked his beard and mused: [Two days ago, there was indeed someone who dressed like a servant that came from the city. He asked for water when he passed by the village. Wolves are rampant in the forests outside the city, he has not returned after so many days, I wonder if something happened in the forest.]

[(Friend) Night Ferry: Go on and fight the wolves by yourself. Message me once you are done, I will come find you.]
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Okay.]
Yang Juan went into the forest to hunt wolves by himself.
According to the quest, he needed to hunt thirty wolves. When he was halfway through, a player suddenly entered the forest.
The other player was several levels higher than Yang Juan, and it seemed that the newcomer was also here to do the quest.
He took the initiative to give the other the left side of the field.
The male swordsman in a beginner outfit, however, went to the right side and fought with him.
[(Local) Gushing Water: Is xiao jiejie alone? How about adding each other as friends?]
Yang Juan focused on fighting the monster and ignored him.
[(Local) Gushing Water: Why is xiao jiejie not talking? Are you shy?]
When he cleaned the wolves on the right side, Yang Juan went around the swordsman to the left.
Gushing Water immediately picked up his feet to follow.
[(Local) Gushing Water: How old is xiao jiejie? Do you have a boyfriend?]
Yang Juan stared at his monitor and frowned slightly. He moved his game character to turn his back to the swordsman.
Gushing Water did not give up, and even began to raise his sword and kill-steal the monster from Yuan Juan.
Watching the wolf that he was fighting lost half of its health, the swordsman impolitely swung his sword and directly cut down the wolf.
After half a minute, Yang Juan’s quest number halted at twenty-five, ceasing to increase.
[(Local) Gushing Water: I will only stop when xiao jiejie response.]
Yang Juan also received this new local message as well as a private message.
[(Friend) Night Ferry: Are you done?]
Yang Juan stopped fighting to type back a reply.
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Not yet.]
[(Friend) Night Ferry: Are you hunting wolves or throwing a beauty pageant for wolves, what are you dilly-dallying about?]
At the same time, Gushing Water moved his swordsman and used [blowing a kiss] gesture his way.
Yang Juan did not reply. He switched back to the local chat, missing the message that the assassin was on his way to look for him.
[(Local) Sheep Curls: Thirty years old, single.]
Probably from how shocking his answers were, Gushing Water began to throw profanity in his way.
[(Local) Gushing Water: What is an old hug playing games for? Are you trying to deceive men by playing a cutie? Wasting this great one’s time, fuck.]
Pretending not to see it, Yang Juan took two steps forward and continued to poke at the wolf with his umbrella.
A flash of light from the sword came again, instead, it was not aimed at the wolf, but at him.
Yang Juan’s HP immediately dropped.
Gushing Water came over with his sword and angrily cut him down out of humiliation.
Having only played the game for two days, Yang Juan did not remember all of his key binding and instinctively opened his umbrella to block.
The tip of the spinning umbrella brushed against the opponent’s blade, and Gushing Water activated a skill. His long sword flew out of his hands, floated in the air, split into two blades and shot towards his target.
Yang Juan dodged to the side and was stabbed by one of the sword shadows. His HP bar dropped.
Gushing Water did not intend to let him go, and had used the skill a second time, but was suddenly attacked from behind.
Two sharp arrows shot towards him from mid-air. Not able to dodge the arrows, Gushing Water’s HP bar instantly dropped to zero as he bit the dust in front of Yang Juan.
Night Ferry came out of the woods, stopped in front of Gushing Water’s dead body and used his [kick] gesture at him.
[(Local) Night Ferry: A noob who did not even grow a pair and already wants to kill other players.]
[(Local) Gushing Water: Fuck, what are you? Have this great one offended you?]
[(Local) Night Ferry: If you have a beef with her then I have a beef with you.]
Gushing Water dared not to speak in anger. Seeing that he was not the assassin’s opponent, he had to restrain his urge to verbally abuse. Soon, his dead body disappeared on the spot as he chose to revive at a spawn point.
Yang Juan typed his thanks.
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Thank you.]
[(Friend) Night Ferry: Not calling me Night-gege anymore?]
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: You did not want me to call you that.]
From his words, Night Ferry could tell the other person is honest and well-behaved, which tickled his heart slightly.
Not seeing a reply, Yang Juan took the initiative to ask.
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: Why are you here?]
[(Friend) Night Ferry: This quest takes two minutes tops, but you have not completed it after ten minutes, so I came to check on you. I want to confirm that you were not taken away by the wolf between its fangs.]
Sitting in front of the monitor, Yang Juan pursed his lips in embarrassment and explained to the other in all seriousness.
[(Friend) Sheep Curls: The wolf in the game cannot take people away.]
Night Ferry raised his eyebrow.
[(Friend) Night Ferry: Is that right?]
[(Friend) Night Ferry: But don’t all the children’s books talk about how much wolves love to eat little sheep?]
Yang Juan’s hands froze on top of his keyboard as the tip of his ears blushed hot.
After a long time, he finally looked up at the monitor in front of him. In a very low voice, containing a trace of disapproving tone, he retorted to himself, “I am not a little sheep.”
The author has something to say:
A’Ruan has Wine:
Did Yang Juan blush today (1/1)
The translator has something to add:
Teo: No one asked, but Yang Juan typed like this. That’s how everyone type over him. (From manhua)
