“Junior?”
An aged voice could be heard from the crowd suddenly.
The old man beside Xu Que was shocked. When he looked up, he was surprised by what he saw, “Senior, why...are you here? I rember you have....”
The old man was so shocked as he looked at an old man in a black robe in the crowd who also seed stunned. The old man in the black robe walked up and said in a low voice seriously, “Junior, we can’t talk here. Please co with first!”
“OK!” The old man nodded and was about to leave. The rest of the powerhouses shouted imdiately, “No! You’ve just arrived at this place. Don’t trust others so easily!”
“Right! The seniors are not reliable now. You should go with us!”
“Exactly! We are the honest and decent people!”
They started to shout.
The old man’s face darkened. “Nonsense! I went through fire and water with my Junior! He is absolutely reliable!”
After saying that, he turned to Xu Que and said earnestly, “Lord Wang, please trust . My Junior is absolutely trustworthy!”
“OK, no problem! We’ll go by following your Junior!” Xu Que nodded his head with a smile.
The situation was quite weird now. Nobody was trustworthy. Therefore he didn’t care who would lead the way. He just wanted to figure out what had happened in this place.
“Let’s go now. I’ll get benefits if you go with . I’ll explain everything when we enter the city!” The old man in the black robe nodded his head as he looked at Xu Que and his team with so rejoicing in his face.
Xu Que didn’t waste his words. He nodded at Jiang Hongyan and Xu Feifei. Then all of them left by following the old man in black robe.
The rest of the powerhouses in this area were very disappointed as if they had lost big business. They were quite frustrated but could do nothing. The point was that they just watched Xu Que and his team leave without even stopping them forcibly. They didn’t even warn them. This was definitely not the style of the powerhouses. Xu Que beca more and more curious. He started to play with the jade plate thoughtfully.
.....
At last, all of them entered the city by following the old man in the black robe.
The city was very stylish. The high city walls were decorated with all kinds of sculptures and murals of superlative craftsmanship. It seed the decorations was not finished by one person but by many experts. On their way, a lot of powerhouses looked at and talked about the old man in the black robe enviously.
“Alas! This old guy really earned a lot this ti!”
“Why do so many newbies follow him?”
“This ti he could at least earn over 100 Good Points!”
“Let’s go out of the city. Maybe we’ll also et so newbies!”
“Right! Exactly! This ti we should take the initiative!”
People started to walk out of the city as they chatted.
The old man in the black robe was quiet on the way. He started to talk when he arranged a room for Xu Que and his team in a hostel. It seed the old man in the black robe was in a good mood. He even ordered a lot of dishes for them.
The hostel owner, who served the food personally, said with a kind smile, “So, you’ve just arrived at the Good and Evil Village, right? The food and drinks are on as a welco gift for you!”
After saying that, he patted the shoulder of the old man in the black robe and said with a smile, “Old Black, just let have these Good Points, OK?”
“No problem!” The old man in the black robe nodded his head.
The hostel owner expressed his gratitude and left contentedly.
Xu Que furrowed his eyebrows. On their way to this hostel, a lot of people ntioned the Good Points in front of them. He had figured out the aning of it vaguely according to the words and values on the jade plate. However, he still wanted to get the information from the old man in the black robe directly.
“OK, old man, please tell about this place!” Xu Que picked up a cup and asked as he looked at the old man in the black robe with a smile.
“Right! Senior, we entered this place together 100 years ago. But you disappeared inexplicably. Why are you here?” The old man also asked.
The old man in the black robe shook his head with a wry smile, “At that ti, I entered a hall by mistake. When I ca to myself, I found myself in this Good and Evil Village. The rest of the people here also arrived at this village in this way!”
“So, you all have been trapped here for 100 years, right?” The old man asked in surprise.
“No, I’ve been trapped here for 100 years! The rest of the people have been trapped here for several hundred years or even over 1,000 years!” The old man in the black robe said, shaking his head. The happy expression started to fade out of his face.
“What? Does this an they failed to find a way to leave this place in the last 1,000 years?” The old man was totally shocked.
“Because this place is called the Good and Evil Village!” The old man in the black robe nodded his head. Then, he started to introduce this place to them. Such a huge and stylish city was called the Good and Evil Village, which was just like a square peg in a round hole. After listening to the narration of the old man in the black robe, Xu Que and the rest of the people figured out the reason.
At the very beginning, this place was just a shabby village. Everyone who entered this place would get a jade plate. All their good or evil deeds would be converted to the Good Points or the Evil Points, which would be recorded on their jade plate. Once the value of the Evil Points was too high, the owner would be teleported into a prison. This guy had to do good deeds to accumulate Good Points. After offsetting the Evil Points with Good Points, they could leave the prison.
That was the reason why so many people acted affably in front of Xu Que, which could earn many Good Points for them. They didn’t dare to force Xu Que and his team to do anything for it would bring Evil Points to them and throw them into the prison. Because it was almost impossible to find an opportunity to do good deeds in the prison, they maybe had to spend their whole life in the prison.
“Then, what could the Good Points be used for?” Xu Que asked.
The old man in the black robe replied with a smile, “It is said anyone who could accumulate 10,000 Good Points will be appointed as the Leader of the Good and Evil Village. Also, this guy could get a substantial legacy and go in and out of this place at will!”
“10,000 Good Points? Is it very difficult to get these Good Points? You helped us this ti. How many Good Points could you earn from it?” Xu Que asked in puzzlent.
This was quite like his Acting Tough System. He could earn Acting Tough Points by acting tough. In this place, people get Good Points or Evil Points through their good or evil deeds.
“I just checked it. This ti I could earn over 80 Good Points at most!” The old man in the black robe said as he shook his head, “If you were not here, I might need another one or two years to earn these Good Points!”
Gasp!
Hearing that, Buttface couldn’t help but gasp. “You could only earn 80 Good Points in two years. So, 10,000 Good Points...eh, how many years do you need? My mathematics is pretty good. I’m just posing a quiz for you!”
However, the old man in the black robe said, shaking his head, “You can’t calculate it in this way. Once you have over 1,000 Good Points, the accumulation will be slower than before. Maybe you will need ten to 20 years to accumulate 80 Good Points. And when you have over 3,000 or 4,000 Good Points, you will need over 100 years to accumulate over 100 Good Points!”
“Damn! This is obviously making things difficult!” Xu Que widened his eyes imdiately.
This place was even aner than the System. He could earn more Acting Tough Points in the System after upgrading his level. However, people in this place could only get less Good Points as ti went on.
“Alas! When I arrived at this place, I got the sa feeling as you. However, I’ve gotten used to it gradually!” The old man in the black robe sighed in a lancholy way.
The old man beside them beca speechless. Then he turned to the woman in black and said with sha, “Kid, I’m sorry I implicated you!”
“What? Junior, is she your granddaughter?” The old man in the black robe was surprised after hearing that.
His Junior said with a smile, “I almost forgot to introduce her to you, Senior. When you disappeared 100 years ago, I left the Refined Moon Palace by good luck and reunited with my children. After so many years, I am a grandfather now! Your son also has a boy of good character and talents. I am considering....”
“Stop! You can talk about your family affairs later! Old man, what is that place?” Xu Que interrupted the conversation between the two old n and asked, pointing at a black tower which was far away from the hostel.
He was quite sure that the black tower was the place where they finished their first teleportation, for he sensed those familiar auras in the dark and damp underground area of that place. Also, he found so spell formations on the ground. It seed they could go back to the Ice Valley through those spell formations. Therefore, he didn’t worry about his Good Points at this mont. As long as he could go back to that place, he was sure he could repair those spell formations and leave this place.
“That place?” The old man in the black robe turned around and replied after looking at Xu Que’s target, “That is the prison of the Good and Evil Village—the Buddha Prison!”
After saying that, the old man in the black robe added, “Please don’t do anything evil! Even the most trifling evil deeds will bring you over 100 Evil Points. Once your Evil Points are over 100, you will be teleported to the prison imdiately. And it is very difficult to get out from it!”
“Oh? Really?” Hearing that, Xu Que lit up his eyes and his face was full of a pleasant surprise!
