After being hit in the face by the system, I swapped bodies with Zhongli

Chapter 438: It seems to have touched a corpse

Following the rumors of others, Hu Tao finally found a familiar figure. She saw her aunt from afar.

Under the sunlight, her long, light-colored hair shone with a brilliance like a star-like gem.

After capturing the target in his sight, Hu Tao immediately trotted through the crowd, catching up with the figure that he had seen from afar.

As she got closer, she saw another figure beside this familiar elder.

It's just that the other person's figure is a little thin, and the gorgeous clothes decorated with pearls and jades look a little loose on her body.

Although because the distance was quite far, she had no way of seeing the face of the very frail figure in the distance.

But one could also clearly see that the long brown hair that was spread out behind her back had hair ends that looked like they were dyed with the brilliant color of the setting sun.

From Walnut's angle, she could just see the other person's pale and delicate hands exposed outside his sleeves.

As she moved forward, she could see the figure in the distance, whose profile looked extremely pale and thin.

Hu Tao often travels between the Yin and Yang worlds and presides over funerals for the deceased. She often deals not only with the deceased, but also with dying people who are preparing for their own funerals.

To say something a bit offensive, when Hu Tao saw the other person clearly, he felt that the man was no different from a long-term ill person who was about to die.

Suddenly, Hu Tao saw the figure that she had been staring at, looking towards her as if he had sensed something.

Unexpectedly, she saw a pair of sharp golden eyes that looked exactly like the guests from their Wangsheng Hall. Her mind was directly drawn into the dazzling light.

But soon, Hu Tao collected his thoughts and looked at the other person's face from a distance.

With just one glance, Hu Tao came to a conclusion in her mind: such similar eyes, such familiar eyebrows, and the same hair color.

She could really understand why rumors suddenly spread in Liyue Harbor that the guest official of the Wangsheng Hall had a sister.

When Hu Tao saw the other person's face clearly, she was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to come back to her senses.

For a moment, she was really skeptical whether this woman in front of her, who seemed to have a close relationship with Ke Qing, was really related to Ke Qing by blood.

Seeing that the other party had discovered him, Hu Tao, who had come here to investigate the truth, simply trotted forward.

He arrived in front of his more familiar aunt, and this mysterious woman who came very suddenly and seemed to have some connection with his living room.

But surprisingly, when Hu Tao jogged over and stopped, the greeting that followed did not come from an elder he was familiar with.

But it was this mysterious woman who suddenly appeared, who seemed to have a close connection with Ke Qing, but did not look too healthy.

Although the other party looked pale, sick and weak, he spoke.

The voice that poured out was gentle and peaceful, without any sense of emptiness or ethereality.

Instead, he greeted her with a calm and gentle voice and a warm smile: "Master Hu."

Then, the elder's smiling voice followed: "It's Little Walnut... It's been a long time since we last met."

This situation caused Hu Tao's previously running thoughts to be stuck for a moment, but he continued to proceed smoothly.

Although he was very surprised, he was also full of doubts about the sudden call of Master Hu.

However, due to the nature of the work in the Wangsheng Hall, they have always been able to deal with all kinds of people, and naturally they can control their expressions and emotions.

She immediately revealed a brilliant smile, and happily moved a little closer, first smiling and greeting Gui Zhong, whom she was most familiar with.

And she called me auntie very obediently.

Then he turned to the woman who was very close to him. The closer she was, the paler and thinner she looked.

"Hello!" She asked frankly and curiously, "Do you know who I am? I haven't seen you in Liyue Port before. You don't live around here, do you? Then how do you know who I am? Did the guest tell you?"

The pale-faced woman, with slightly curved eyebrows and a familiar face, couldn't help but bring a sense of closeness to Hu Tao.

Then she heard the other party say to her in a gentle and friendly voice: "...We just met a few days ago, Master Hu."

At first glance, these words were indeed a bit puzzling. Hu Tao did not react for a moment, but subconsciously wanted to ask back when they had met each other.

Just as he opened his mouth, a light bulb went off in his head, as if he had caught some flashing thoughts. Hu Tao swallowed those questions back with an incredible look on his face.

She immediately deduced that the woman in front of her should be the unknown being who had occupied the body of her guest in the Hall of Rebirth not long ago.

At that time, she made all kinds of speculations, all of which were wild and unrealistic.

Even Hu Tao at that time had such outrageous speculation that the other party was actually the Rock King.

I was so excited that I ran to the other party to verify it, but in the end I got a negative answer.

And until now, Hu Tao suddenly realized that the person who occupied her mind as a guest in the Hall of Rebirth was actually the woman in front of her.

Kurumi was unable to contain the astonishment that was overflowing from her heart, revealing a slightly dull expression, but she tried her best to suppress her voice and said in disbelief: "...It's you?!"

Then he asked anxiously: "So now, has it been changed back? What about Zhongli? How is Zhongli now?"

Hu Tao was naturally very concerned about Zhongli's current situation, and her anxiety and expectations were reflected in her words and actions.

Hu Tao subconsciously took a step forward and directly held the pale and slender hand of the person in front of her.

But after making such a move, Hu Tao was stunned again, and then lowered her eyes to look at the pale, thin and slightly bony hand that she was holding in her hand.

I don't know if it was because of the other party's poor health that the temperature of his hands was much lower, but there was a lingering sense of coldness that made Hu Tao, who had been dealing with the deceased for many years, feel cold the moment he touched them.

I felt as if... I had touched the hand of a dead body.
