After hearing Su Mo's words, Xia Mi looked a little embarrassed.

Oh my god, she really planned to take Su Mo to a luxurious meal. Although part of the reason was mainly because she wanted to eat, her mood was not fake.

The mission location this time was a large and luxurious villa, which was much smaller than the old shabby one they lived in.

She had read the map before coming here. Being able to perform tasks in such a beautiful and luxurious villa, if she could have a few more big meals, although it was not a special treat for the Dragon King, it would be a relief for her years of poverty. Still quite relaxing.

Therefore, they only had a simple airplane meal at noon and then rushed all the way to the mission location.

Who knew, only then did I realize that the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, but they are also completely far away from human habitation!

Not to mention any large restaurants, there isn't even a supermarket.

They held on to their last hope, thinking that the refrigerator in the villa could at least store some food, right?

If nothing else, there should always be a little bit of frozen fish and meat.

Who knows, after opening the door, the refrigerator is empty, not even a mouse hair is found.

At this moment, facing Su Mo's soul questioning, Teacher Xia Mi was speechless, but she still spoke harshly.

"Don't, don't worry, we haven't finished looking yet!"

She looked at the message from her employer on the mission.

"According to the employer, we can use the food in the villa as long as it is not wasted. This means there should still be food, but we didn't find it."

"Is it?"

Su Mo was a little suspicious.

He had seen the structural diagram of the villa before. The freezing area where the electric switch pointed was this area. It was powered by a separate power supply and it was unlikely to have partitions.

Moreover, this task has been pending for at least a month. If no one lives there within a month, where else can the food be stored besides the freezer area?

"Look for it first!"

Xia Mi didn't have any confidence at all.

He took Su Mo around the villa.

After walking around, they couldn't find anything to eat, so they couldn't help but look towards the basement.

"According to the mission description, the so-called evil spirits of Midnight Echoes refer to the supernatural phenomena that occur in the basement."

Looking at the basement hidden in the darkness, Xia Mi introduced it quietly.

"Every midnight, there will be strange sounds coming from the basement, like the laughter of children or the roar of wild beasts. Neither worship nor spells are effective against this sound. It seems like a ferocious evil ghost is being sealed. Among them, there is no way to escape through all kinds of struggles, and those who trespass will inevitably be possessed by the curse."

It was obviously a sunny afternoon, but Xia Mi's description made the surrounding environment seem much colder. A gust of wind blew by, as if it foreshadowed some ominous sign.

The originally normal basement now looks like a monster that preys on people, crawling in the shadows.

Xia Mi looked at Su Mo with a faint look, trying to find some fear in his expression.

Unexpectedly, after listening to her words, Su Mo stepped forward and turned on the switch with a click.

The bright lights completely dispelled the darkness, and the gloomy atmosphere immediately disappeared. Su Mo turned around and looked at Xia Mi speechlessly.

"How old are you to play this kind of trick? Am I afraid of evil spirits when you are here? And there is no need to deliberately change the subject to cover up the embarrassment of not being able to find food. I will treat you to a big meal later, and I won't blame you for this little thing. .”

Hearing what Su Mo said, Xia Mi's face darkened.

"It's not embarrassing at first, but it's very embarrassing when you expose it like this! It makes me seem to have a lot of thoughts..."

"Isn't it true?"

Su Mo was confused.

"Facts...can we talk nonsense about facts? Can a girl express her thoughts so straightforwardly? How come a guy like you has grown so big? No wonder he can't find a partner!"

She angrily stopped urging Yan Ling.

The surrounding cold wind immediately stopped, the warmth of the afternoon returned, and the cold illusion immediately disappeared.

Su Mo was amazed by her behavior of using her power in unimportant places.

Then he pushed open the basement door.

After looking at the scene in front of him, Su Mo was stunned.

"Miss, it seems that we really found some food or something."

"What? I just said there is something to eat!"

Xia Mi immediately became energetic. He pulled Su Mo away a little, his head popped out from behind him, and he immediately saw the things stored in the basement.

"These things are..."

If they were to describe it intuitively using visual information, what they saw were corpses soaked in mysterious solutions. Some of the mysterious solutions were as colorless as formalin solutions, while others were tinged with thick or light yellow or red. It looked like Like the color of plasma. The stones inside have different shapes, some look like corals, and some look like complete corpses.

In everyday language, these are -

"Snake wine?"

Xia Mi tilted his head and looked at the shelves full of glass containers.

"Not only snake wine, but also deer antlers and tiger whip."

Su Mo walked directly in and looked at the full wine cellar.

Generally speaking, rich people like to store wine in wine cellars, but most of them store various types of red wine. However, the owner of the villa in front of him has a somewhat strange taste. It is filled with medicinal wine made from various things.

"Ginseng, wolfberry, angelica, cistanche deserticola..."

As he watched, Su Mo's expression became increasingly weird.

Most of the wine here is snake wine, and the other medicinal materials in the snake wine are different. Some of them he recognizes, and some of them he doesn't.

But whether he recognized it or not, he now guessed the function of these wines.

Not only him, Xia Mi also roughly guessed the specific effects of medicinal wine.

"Are they all for kidney and yang enhancement?"

She couldn't help but exclaimed, and then was stunned.

"You don't want us to just eat this, do you?"

She looked at Su Mo suspiciously, thinking, this guy still wants to defeat his superiors?

"What's that look in your eyes?"

Su Mo glanced at her speechlessly.

"It might be fine if you eat it. It's me who should be wary, okay? If my bestiality shows up, I'll probably die. If you show your bestiality, I'll lose my innocence and maybe die too... Anyway, I'm the one who's going to suffer. Okay!"

"That's right, you can't beat me."

Xia Mi patted his chest, seemingly relieved, but then a little dissatisfied.

"Wait! You're the one who's at a disadvantage, and you think this thing will be effective on me?"

This is not a martial arts novel. There will be scenes where even the top masters cannot handle the aphrodisiac. She is the Dragon King, and this thing is not even a drink for her.

"No, I am mainly afraid that you will find an excuse and deliberately use the topic to your advantage."

Su Mo shook his head.

"Bah! You're dreaming!"

Xia Mi rolled his eyes at him.

The two bickered but did not delay the business. After scanning around the wine cellar, neither found any problems, so they cross-searched other rooms in the basement.

Except for a decorated singing practice room, there is nothing in the other rooms, which seem to be just storage rooms. The good news is that I found several bags of vacuum-packed rice here, but they have not expired.

At least the staple food problem is solved.

The kitchen is fully stocked with condiments, and you can even have fried rice.

"I can't find any alchemical products. Maybe the living creatures in them are dormant?"

Xia Mi said doubtfully.

Naturally, it was impossible for the two of them to really just look for food. They had not forgotten the requirements of this mission, but unfortunately they did not find any clues.

"Then let's wait until night, when there are supernatural phenomena, and come back to see it."

Su Mo suggested this.

"Well! If it is an activated spirit, it is impossible to escape my perception."

Xia Mi nodded confidently.

"Then the next thing to solve is very simple."

After coming out of the basement, Su Mo went straight to the utility room that he had checked before.

"What are you doing?"

Looking at Su Mo, who was fully armed with a fishing rod, fish guard, net, small bench, and parasol, Xia Mi asked in confusion.

"Fishing!"

Su Mo replied matter-of-factly.

"The rice problem is solved, now we just need to get food, right?"

If you are still hungry when you have the Yangtze River at your back, it would be a shame for the fisherman.

He is a LV3 professional fisherman!
