Abnormal paradise

Although the admission qualification to Gold Rush Town has been obtained, there are still procedures that need to be followed. Only by lighting a bonfire can one pass the night and then knock on the closed door of Gold Rush Town.

It is worth mentioning that Ember had previously learned from his friends that in the illusion of fire at the end of the sand sea, one could hear the story of an old drunkard, and this story would reveal important clues to a hidden mission, which made Ember ignite with a trace of curiosity. bonfire.

Wow!

The flames danced, and Ember soon saw the image of the character. Since he did not trigger a special mission, there were obviously more gold diggers left this time than last time, and Nina was among them. This ill-fated girl was still He was so lifeless that even when he was sitting next to the campfire, his pale face was not rosy in the light of the fire.

The gold mining team members seemed to notice something strange about Nina, and they "generously" gathered around the campfire, allowing Nina to enjoy half of the campfire to herself in the cold desert. However, this situation made Yi Yan couldn't help but think: "She... Can you still feel the temperature?"

This question is destined to have no answer, and the survivors of the gold mining team began to long for and fear their future gold mining career.

"Captain, we finally got here, why doesn't this damn place open?"

A certain gold digger's question made the old drunkard who was dozing off suddenly turn over and sit up, and asked with a sly smile: "Didn't you already tell the answer?"

"Answer, what answer?" The gold digger was confused, and the others also looked at each other.

"You are right about your description. Gold Rush Town is actually a ghost place."

The words of the old drunkard immediately made everyone present shiver, and the face of the questioner changed even more. He was afraid that he would not be able to fulfill his dream of gold mining and would lose his life in the gold mining town: "Captain, don't scare us! "

"Okay, okay, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. I was thinking of making a joke to liven up the atmosphere. Look at how cowardly you all are..."

The old drunkard pointed at everyone and laughed softly: "Since you want to know why Gold Rush Town is closed at night, why don't I tell you about a certain rumor I heard! Come on, come on, sit still. This rumor is certainly a bit It’s mysterious, but it’s not necessarily groundless. At least you should keep the rules involved in it in mind so that you don’t violate the taboos of Gold Rush Town.”

"Yes, yes, yes." The gold diggers nodded like chickens pecking at rice, looking at the drunkard with burning eyes. Even Nina was aroused, just like the first ruins bonfire.

"You should have heard that there is no sunrise or sunset in Gold Rush Town. The sun always hangs in the sky. But why can't we see the sun inside through an iron gate?"

"Why?"

"I don't know either!"

"..."

"But I know that there were sunrises and sunsets in Gold Rush Town!" The old drunkard took a sip of wine, and his eyes became brighter. "It was only because of a vicious incident that the managers of Gold Rush Town were forced to decide. Let the sun freeze at noon forever, and you don’t need to ask who can possess such monstrous abilities. You just need to know that the people in the gold rush town believe in one sentence - there is no evil under the sun."

"Why is this rule so strange?"

Not to mention the gold diggers, even Ember couldn't help but want to complain. If there was no evil under the sun, then Gold Rush Town would definitely become a paradise. However, having experienced it once, he really couldn't agree with it, but then Everyone heard the old drunkard's explanation: "It is said that the founders of the gold diggers came from the imperial world, and the people there believed in fire and the sun."

Perhaps it was a coincidence that after hearing the old drunkard's words, Yi Yan and Nina blurted out at the same time: "Praise the sun!"

"Yes, just praise the sun!"

The old drunkard glanced at Nina unexpectedly: "The power of faith is undoubted. After that, there were indeed no vicious incidents in Gold Rush Town. Of course, I prefer the credit to the past sheriffs. When you enter, you will see A plump current police chief. That guy is not easy to mess with. He always appears at the scene of an upcoming crime as soon as possible. He is very afraid of trouble, but he is never afraid of solving it. If you have the habit of sneaking around, you should do it as soon as possible. It would be better to change it.”

"Thank you, captain, for your advice." The gold diggers expressed their sincere opinions. It was thanks to the old drunkard along the way, otherwise they would not have gotten here at all.

"Hey, Captain, can I know something about that vicious case?"

This man's problem was also Ember's concern, and the old drunkard didn't hold back on it.

"I don't know much about the details. I only know that it's about the wealth of Gold Rush Town. Judging from the way your eyes are wide open, I guess I guessed it. Yes, Gold Rush Town is full of gold. Of course, a lot of wealth will be accumulated. You can think of it. All the rare objects can be seen in the treasure house. Many people once came to Gold Rush Town just to see the grandeur of the treasure house. Unfortunately, the treasure house was robbed by a group of thieves and was never seen again. People can now enjoy the shocking scene of mountains of treasures.”

"The leaders of Gold Rush Town are all capable of holding down the sun, but they can't catch the robber?"

"Haha, to be able to steal a treasure house under the eyes of visitors from the empire, these thieves are certainly not ordinary people. Moreover, there are moles in the leadership of the gold diggers. Although some gangsters were later captured, the treasure was not recovered. Back, it is said that it was hidden by the thieves in the depths of the sand sea. Even if someone accidentally finds the place where the treasure is hidden, if they cannot gather the personal tokens of the forty thieves, they will definitely not be able to open the treasure house!"

The Forty Thieves...

Hearing this, Yi Yan had a strange look on his face, wondering if he had misunderstood something, but then he got a system prompt.

[Tip: Under the narration of "Old Drunkard", you obtained the legendary fragment "Sesame". Collect more related fragments, and you will have a higher chance of triggering hidden tasks. 】

"Open Sesame and the Forty Thieves, ah, it's Alibaba and the Forty Thieves. It turns out that there is also a fairy tale mission hidden in Gold Rush Town. And it seems that the difficulty and scale of this mission seem to be far greater than other missions. You must collect them all." It takes the forty thieves’ personal tokens to complete... It doesn’t seem like it can be done alone, right?”

In the reverie of the embers, the flame image quietly dissipated, and he officially set foot in the gold rush town. He rode the giant scorpion mount and went straight to the tavern. He had already bought the town map once, so naturally he did not need to buy it again. The purpose of the trip is to collect the agreed reward from the drunkard captain.

There were almost no changes in the tavern, the drunkards, and the bartenders, but their attitudes towards Embers were much more serious than before. The Mad Hatter Jack, who had been tricked once by Embers, got up and left immediately, for fear of being entangled by Embers again in an almost certain round of defeat. Gambling.

"We meet again, what do you want to order this time?"

The bartender saw Yi Yan take out a token with a calm look, and immediately nodded and said: "It seems you are lucky. There was once a guide who accidentally lost the token in the forest. If you find it, you can indeed get a delivery for the pub. high-paying jobs.”

Having said this, the bartender paused and took a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet behind him: "Well, you can take this bottle first, because I have no goods to deliver here for the time being. As for whether to deliver this bottle of wine or not, It's up to you to decide who to give it to. If you're still lucky, in addition to getting coin rewards, this bottle of wine should also help you earn some favorability points, and I don't need to go into details about the role of favorability points, right?"

Well, please forgive me for suddenly being lazy

My editor-in-charge, Pointer Guy, was really good to me and did not give up resource support after it was put on the shelves, so after much deliberation I decided to update as usual.

In my opinion, the relationship between the platform, the author and the readers is mutually prosperous and mutually destructive. The platform provides support to the author, allowing the author to write words that readers like, and encourages readers to support the author and the platform with genuine copies and IP, which will undoubtedly Forming a virtuous cycle, but for various reasons, many contradictions have accumulated in the industry

I believe that there are many irrational voices in this rhythm, but innovation often contains irrational factors. Just like the previous high-pressure period of the epidemic, the entire society was filled with irrational voices. In hindsight, our report card may also be because of This irrational urging has increased by a few points.

I am relatively optimistic about the forum for platform authors that will be held tomorrow. I also hope that after this crisis, the online literature industry will become more and more prosperous. After all, only when there are more and more authors can we compete and compete with each other in ideas. Better works are created through collision.

Finally, I would like to thank all fellow Taoists for their subscriptions, rewards, monthly tickets, recommendations and comments. Since there is a limit to the number of words in my remarks, I will only write this much. I am very sorry for the sudden incident.
