The lizard person looked at Baiyang Gege, so angry he couldn’t even speak.

Baiyang Gege didn’t tangle with him anymore. He pushed him roughly to the side, then said softly: “By the way, you brought your face here to lose it yourself today. Don’t blame it on me.”

Although the lizard person’s “disciples” looked to number in the dozens, they all made way for us.

Tiger Uncle and Snake Uncle turned back to hold my hands, and together we followed Baiyang Gege away.

After walking several dozen steps, Baiyang Gege turned back and said to us quietly: “From now on, when you get off work, the four of you walk together. If there are problems, try to stall for time. I’ll handle it.”

Black Sheep Uncle hesitated for a moment after hearing this, then asked: “So Yang Ge… from now on we’re taking in this child?”

“What?” Baiyang Gege turned to look at him, “Do you think there’s something wrong with that?”

“Ah no… it’s not…” Black Sheep Uncle shook his head, “Yang Ge, you must have your own plans… I just feel this child can’t earn ‘Dao’ for you, so the day you ascend will be even further away…”

“If I was single-mindedly thinking about ascending, never mind that child—I couldn’t keep any of you three.” Baiyang Gege answered, “I’ve had no family since I was young. Since we’ve eaten at the same table, you are my family. Even if I truly have to leave… I will definitely settle you all properly.”

“Yang Ge, you don’t need to settle me!” Tiger Uncle said, “I’m a money-loser to begin with. If you want to ascend, you can abandon me anytime!”

“Shut up!” Snake Uncle knocked Tiger Uncle on the back of the head, “Can’t you tell good words from bad? Are you the only fucking righteous one?”

“Dead Snake, you fuck… may I ask why did you hit me?” Tiger Uncle asked while covering the back of his head.

“Why are you talking like this now…?” Snake Uncle reached out to touch Tiger Uncle’s mask, “Little Tiger, do you have a fever? Why aren’t you cursing at me!”

“I… I don’t want to curse. Don’t provoke me.” Tiger Uncle pushed away Snake Uncle’s hand, “Hurry up and go to work.”

After hearing this, Snake Uncle nodded, then came over to pat my head.

Seeing his movement, I couldn’t help but take half a step back, after all Snake Uncle’s smell was quite unpleasant.

“What are you afraid of?” Snake Uncle shook his head, “Although I’m a ‘Snake’, I’m not eating you, this little ‘Mouse’, right now.”

“Ah… it’s not that… I’m not afraid Snake Uncle will eat me…” I hurriedly shook my head.

“Alright, I have to go.” Snake Uncle still patted my head, “I’ll play with you tonight.”

After Snake Uncle left, Black Sheep Uncle and Tiger Uncle also left one after another. Not knowing which door to exit from, I could only follow Baiyang Gege.

After all, every door here looked the same. How did they remember?

After walking about several dozen more steps, Baiyang Gege finally stopped.

“Mouse, you exit from here.” He pointed to a door beside him, “Your door is a total of one hundred and thirteen doors away from my door. Remember it well from now on.”

“Ah… okay, I’ll remember it.” I nodded, “Then… then I’ll go first, Baiyang Gege…”

Baiyang Gege looked at me, blinked slightly, and asked: “Why do you call them uncle but call me gege?”

“Be… because you sound relatively young…” I said in a very small voice, “I feel you’re like a big brother…”

“Big brother…?” A trace of loss passed through Baiyang Gege’s eyes, “Do you know how long I’ve been here…?”

After hearing this, I hurriedly added: “If Baiyang Gege doesn’t like it… I can also call you uncle…”

“No, just call me gege.” Baiyang Gege shook his head, “After all, no one has ever called me that.”

“Ah…?”

“Mouse.” Baiyang Gege said, “Don’t die out there.”

“Die…?” I felt Baiyang Gege was probably overthinking it, because Lady Zhu Que outside seemed like she would protect me. I probably wouldn’t die.

“Maybe I’m overthinking.” Baiyang Gege shook his head and took out four small spheres from his pocket to give me.

I had seen these small spheres before. Sister Qin Dingdong used these to play games with the referee.

“These four ‘Dao’ are for your self-defense. My requirements for you aren’t high—just don’t gain or lose.”

“Th… thank you Baiyang Gege.” So these are called ‘Dao’?

“Go on, see you tonight.” Baiyang Gege helped me push open the door. I discovered that outside was exactly the warehouse entrance I had arrived at.

After bidding him farewell, I walked out, feeling it was quite magical.

I stood dumbly at the warehouse entrance, recalling the rules Tiger Uncle and Snake Uncle told me.

I was the referee of this warehouse, so I had to wait at the entrance for ‘Participants’…

I didn’t know why, but I felt somewhat nervous.

Would anyone really come participate in my game…?

I took out the small notebook Baiyang Gege gave me and carefully read through the rules again. It was a bit complex. I wasn’t quite sure if I could handle it…

The sun slowly moved across the sky. I felt I had waited a long time, but no one came to me.

My warehouse seemed too out of the way…

But this was also a good thing! I worried I would mess up… and also worried I would make Baiyang Gege lose money.

They gave me food. I couldn’t make things difficult for them…

So I was truly conflicted. I both hoped I could earn some ‘Dao’ for Baiyang Gege to take back, yet also hoped no one would come looking for me…

“Little Mouse!” A voice suddenly rang out behind me, startling me greatly.

I turned around to look—it was actually two big sisters. They were both so beautiful!

No… to be precise, one was exceptionally beautiful, just like a star in a pictorial. Although the other sister was also very pretty, compared to her she paled somewhat.

Ah! Now wasn’t the time to think about this.

There, there were customers!

I didn’t know where to put my hands. After being stunned for a moment, I could only put them behind my back.

“Do, do you want to participate in my ‘trial’?” I asked boldly. Once the words came out, I felt I still seemed quite presentable.

“Trial…?” One of the pretty sisters smiled, “From your voice, you’re a child…? Everyone else calls it a ‘game’. Why do you call it a ‘trial’?”

“Ah I…” I kept thinking about what to say, but my mind was completely blank. I couldn’t think of a single reason.

“Forget it, little sister.” The pretty sister shook her head, “Tell me what your game is?”

“Ah, my game is called…”

Oh no, I forgot everything!

“It’s called…”

“Called what?” The pretty sister stared at me seriously.

The more I tried to recall the contents of that little notebook, the blanker my mind became… What was Baiyang Gege’s game called again?

The exceptionally pretty sister glanced at me and asked: “Did you just become a ‘Zodiac’? You actually even forgot your game?”

“Who, who said I forgot…”

I turned back to look at my warehouse and suddenly had a brilliant idea.

“Both sisters! My game is called ‘Warehouse Dao Hunting’!”
