I didn't realize for a moment what he meant by what he just said, so I was stunned and didn't speak.

The door owner sitting on the revolving chair spoke first: "Hey, don't say it so harshly. Isn't this also a commission from Party A? Don't make it sound like we are trying to make money or kill people."

Song Wei sneered: "Oh, how big a difference can it make? How can your hands be clean when you are doing things with benefits?"

The person behind the seat wasn't angry either: "So you want to ask for help? I don't see it...or do you want to beg for mercy?"

Song Wei looked calm on his face and said coldly: "This time you changed the rules of the game without telling me. I have been working for you with utmost benevolence and righteousness. Can't I ask for a little more reward?"

The door owner shrugged: "Of course it would be okay if you were replaced by someone else, but look at this kid's appearance and protect him. If something happens in the future, you will have to bear the burden together."

Song Wei didn't even look at me, and said decisively: "Now I don't have to worry about the boss anymore. Anyway, hurry up and give me a way to clear the customs."

The door owner raised a pitch-black claw and drew in the void.

Suddenly, a black gap appeared in the indoor space.

Song Wei naturally walked into the gap first, and I followed closely and got in.

The scenery in front of me changed so quickly that I couldn't even react. When I walked through the gap to the outside, I couldn't help but squint my eyes in the sun.

"This sect leader... is really amazing." I couldn't help but sigh.

Song Wei added: "If you take a closer look, does the area around here look familiar?"

I thought about it for a moment and realized that this area did look familiar. After thinking about it for a moment, I slapped my thigh.

"Isn't this outside my coffin shop? Why am I here?"

With surprise, I started to explore the situation everywhere.

Shrouded in smoke, this is obviously an environment I am familiar with, but it makes people feel that it is not that simple.

"What happened in this place?" I finally couldn't help but ask after walking for a while.

Song Wei didn't answer, but just led me along a road.

I know this place very well. Isn't this the path back to the coffin shop?

"Do you know how to get back to my house? Who are you?" I asked quickly, following Song Wei who kept walking.

After Song Wei took me out of the smoke, his expression was much more relaxed, and he completely lost the tension in the maze: "I came to do business with you, why did you forget?"

I shook my head. I guess it was because of the business my father did with this man. I had no impression of him at all.

Not long after, a beautiful duplex building appeared in front of us, and we finally went home.

I opened the door and walked in with ease. When he came in and saw the drastic changes in the decoration, he didn't seem too surprised and sat directly on the chair.

I made him some tea, and we finally had some time to rest.

Seeing the relaxed look on his face, I finally couldn't help but ask: "What do you mean by what you just said to the door owner? What is the relationship between you and this commission?"

Song Wei gave me an inscrutable look and said, "You may have guessed that my purpose in participating in this trial is not to obtain that high-level commission. I am just a killer hired by the Life and Death Sect."

"For some reasons, I can't reveal my true identity, and I have the right to withdraw from this matter at any time. What I have to do is to reduce the number of people who pass without anyone being prepared, and be the one who secretly kills people.

ghost."

He said this as if he was just describing a game of hide and seek.

"That's how it should be." He took a sip of tea and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"However, the Life and Death Sect violated the rules from the beginning and announced the start of a fight without notifying me. It even turned the situation into a Gu breeding situation. To be honest, I was a little angry."

I saw that now was the time for him to ask questions, so I quickly said: "So what is the purpose of doing this?"

He raised his eyebrows: "Didn't the door owner make it very clear just now? This is the client's idea."

I still don’t understand. What kind of problem does the client want to solve before setting up such a trap that would lead to death?

Song Wei saw through my thoughts from my expression: "Don't guess the thoughts of these famous sects. They just want to employ people but don't trust them, so they need to find a few who are strong enough but have dirty hands and are easy to manipulate."

That's all. I can guess that this time they will probably stipulate that the number of groups that can finally pass the level will be less than three."

Famous family... This word sounds familiar but also unfamiliar.

"A famous sect is actually involved with the Life and Death Sect?"

Song Wei glanced at me: "You are really a newbie, you don't know anything about this. The Li family in your area started their business based on the Gate of Life and Death. I remember that they should have some involvement with your ancestors."

I was startled when I heard this: "What? You said that the Li family has been involved with us for a long time?"

Song Wei looked at me: "Of course...your name is Xu Dezhi, right?"

I nodded.

"That's right. Your ancestor of the Xu family was not only famous in this world... but it's been so long since this incident, it's probably been almost forgotten."

This is the first time I’ve heard about my family’s past, and it’s also from an outsider!

Surprised, I quickly asked: "Song Wei... No, Brother Song, how much do you know about my family's past?"

Song Wei glanced at me, as if he thought it was a little funny: "You kid, why don't you go back and ask your ancestors about this kind of thing?"

I was speechless for a moment: "My father has never told me this, and there is no one else in the family."

Song Wei seemed a little surprised: "You are the only one left? How could this happen..."

Suddenly he seemed to understand something, and suddenly sighed: "It seems that you have to talk to the Li family about this matter. If you have any questions, just ask them."

After speaking, he stood up and patted the dust on his body from the maze.

Before going out, he suddenly turned to me and said, "By the way, I'll take you through this trial together. We will probably meet again in two days. Before that, you can digest those skills."

This time I discovered that he had placed several ancient books brought out of the maze on the chair at some point.

After he left for a while, I sat back on the chair and began to organize my thoughts.

Suddenly, I noticed something.

The things he said about my ancestors happened at least tens or hundreds of years ago. Even I didn’t know it, but he seemed to have seen it with his own eyes.

Who is he?

Because I stayed up late for several days in a row and was physically exhausted, I fell asleep sitting in my chair without even realizing it.

When I woke up again, the surroundings were very lively.

"Xiao Zhi, you're awake."
