Oh no! I, the weakling, have become the villain!

Chapter 346 Blackwater Town

Xu Yao then said helplessly, "Do you really think Madam Ming wants to introduce her daughter to me?"

"It's because he's about to die, and he's worried that his daughter won't be able to protect the Ming family's inheritance and that it will be taken away by others."

"This is the real sucker who found me. To be honest, if I were to become Ming Yunya's husband, how much responsibility would I have to bear?"

"If that happens, I, an outsider son-in-law, will have to guard the Ming family's business. Am I crazy?"

"Isn't this just using me as a tool?" Xu Yao said.

At this moment, Han Yi said, "Such a large family business, how could it possibly be a burden on you?"

Xu Yao then said, "You don't understand, this isn't about me being wronged, it's just that this is how things are."

"If I actually agree, I'll be getting beaten up a lot, but I won't get any benefits at all."

"Speaking of getting a wife, since she has gotten a wife, isn't she also getting a husband for free to shelter her from the wind and rain?"

“I wouldn’t be so stupid as to do something like that. I have my own things to do and have no interest in being used as a pawn,” Xu Yao said.

This was the first time Han Yi had heard Xu Yao say such a thing. To be precise, it was the first time anyone in this world had heard Xu Yao say such a thing.

For Han Yi, wasn't this perfect? ​​He was single, and this was just the right time to find a wife.

This is what it means to settle down and start a family, but Xu Yao's words seemed to remind Han Yi of some things he hadn't thought of before.

So you're saying there's really a problem with this? Anyway, whatever the case.

Xu Yao's words this time made Han Yi start to think deeply.

It seems to have caused a huge shock to his life experience over the past few decades.

Xu Yao didn't know what Han Yi was thinking, but seeing Han Yi like this, he chuckled and said, "I was just talking nonsense."

Don't take it seriously.

"No, I feel like what you said makes sense, even though I don't understand it, it just seems to be the way things are."

"In short, I know that what you said isn't entirely unreasonable," Han Yi said.

Oh no! Seeing Han Yi start to think about what he had said, Xu Yao realized that he had made a careless mistake.

Another sycophant has been eliminated, but it's still a good deed in itself.

After leaving the Ming family, the three finally learned about a small town.

This town doesn't look very big, probably only a few hundred households.

However, the town seemed peaceful and tranquil, and the people in the town lived a very leisurely life.

As soon as the three arrived in the town, they saw a group of people standing in front of an obituary and looking at something not far away.

Having witnessed this situation, Xu Yao then asked, "What's going on with this town?"

"What are all these people gathered around here for? Let's go take a look."

Although Xu Yao wasn't entirely sure, at least he was here now, so things were naturally going well.

At this moment, Xu Yao arrived at this place and then led the Great Witch and Han Yi to the obituary.

There was a large crowd gathered around the obituary, and Xu Yao said to someone nearby, "Brother, what are you all looking at?"

"You're from out of town, aren't you?" the man said.

"Yes, we are outsiders passing through this place," Xu Yao said.

"You wouldn't believe it, but something very strange has been happening in our Blackwater Town lately," the man said.

"Strange thing? What happened? Has someone been captured by a ghost?" Xu Yao asked.

"More or less, but not to that extent," the man said.

The Miao shaman, upon hearing this, also became interested: "Let me tell you, I just like this kind of thing."

"Tell us quickly, what happened that made you all so nervous?" the high shaman said.

After glancing at the three of them, the man said, "I don't know what happened last month."

“A beautiful and mysterious woman appeared on the only road outside our Blackwater Town at some unknown time.”

'This woman is truly beautiful; any man who sees her will be completely captivated.'

"They were completely unable to walk, and because of that, several men in the town were killed."

"And the next day, bodies were found next to a dry well in a deep mountain. The hearts of these bodies had been removed."

"When the officials came to investigate, they were all very puzzled by what had happened, and several officials died in the woods."

"Now the officials don't allow the townspeople to pass through here at night; they can only leave during the day."

"Moreover, you must travel in groups, and you can't go to too remote places, as the government has blocked off some roads," the man said.

Xu Yao had originally brought the two of them out of the Ming family's house, but he never expected to encounter such a thing.

Xu Yao definitely can't miss this.

Xu Yao then said directly, "So after all this time, this obituary is just to tell everyone not to leave?"

"No, this obituary was issued by the government officials. This isn't just a matter in Blackwater Town; it's already caused quite a stir."

"Now the officials are worried that things are getting too big and they'll lose their jobs, so they're issuing an obituary."

"Let's see if we can find a brave warrior to go up the mountain and kill this murderous woman, so that Blackwater Town can have peace again," the man said.

Upon hearing this voice, Xu Yao asked directly, "So, has anyone accepted this obituary yet?"

"Not yet, but thinking about it, who would dare accept such an obituary? Wouldn't that be suicide?"

"Nobody dares to take this on right now; everyone's waiting for a hero to appear," the man said, shaking his head helplessly.

Upon seeing this situation, Xu Yao immediately said to the Great Witch and Han Yi, "Shall we go take a look?"

After hearing this, the two thought for a moment, and Han Yi said, "Since we have nothing else to do, let's go take a look."

Xu Yao nodded and walked to the front, then took the obituary directly.

Upon seeing that someone had accepted the obituary, many people present expressed their surprise.

"This young man looks so young, he doesn't know the value of life. This woman is quite formidable."

"Young man, if you fail to vanquish the demons and monsters, you might lose your life. Wouldn't that be a pity?"

Xu Yao, however, was too lazy to waste words with these people. He took the obituary and went straight to Han Yi and the Great Witch, saying, "Let's go find an inn first."
