Real Cthulhu Running Game
Chapter 1708 Leaving
"Well, then Feng Sen, just go and give it a try first. I'll look back later and see if I should resign and hang out with you..."
As soon as Deng Yan finished speaking, his and Feng Sen's cell phones rang in unison, and they seemed to be paying special attention to the sound effects.
Deng Yan quickly took out his cell phone and looked at it, and immediately beamed with joy, "Sure enough, Cao Cao is here. The old dean is finally ready to take action against Luohan Temple this time!"
Compared to Deng Yan, Feng Sen's expression was a little more awkward, "Well, actually, I just sent a text message to Lao Zhang, saying that I was going to resign and start a business... So is it too late for me to regret it now?"
At this time, although Liu Xing looked happy on the surface, he actually knew that Feng Sen and the others had been involved in the upcoming Luohan Temple module, because this archaeological team was likely to enter the Luohan Temple. While visiting the temple, I discovered the missing adventure blogger team, and these people were definitely gone.
"Although Lao Zhang is usually very strict, he has always been nice to us, so if you say a few nice words, Feng Sen, you should be able to make Lao Zhang forget about this matter. Besides, Lao Zhang is not at work today, no. Maybe your resignation procedures will be completed so quickly." Deng Yan comforted him.
Feng Sen nodded and ran to the side with his cell phone to call Lao Zhang.
At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly saw the black cat out of the corner of his eye!
In other words, it's a Martian cat who's cheating.
This Martian cat was standing under a big tree and looking around, as if he was looking for something. But the most important thing was that Liu Xing found that the Martian cat's right leg seemed to be injured. It was not good for it to keep lifting that leg. It landed, and obvious blood stains could be seen.
But this is probably just a minor injury.
It seemed that the Martian cat had a fight with someone while he was drinking tea, so it lost sight of Leng Min.
While Liu Xing was thinking, he took out his cell phone and told Tian Qing about it.
At this time, Tian Qing was still staying in the teahouse with Baihecheng and others. Everything was normal with them, and nothing noteworthy happened.
As for Leng Min and others who had just left, although Tian Qing and others didn't know why they didn't see them walking in, they saw them walking out of a private room, so Tian Qing and others thought that something should happen during this period. Some important plots were revealed, and in order to prevent bystanders like myself from getting involved, the Cthulhu Run game lobby directly blocked them.
In this way, because Leng Min and others left temporarily, Liu Xing drank tea with Deng Yan and others for an afternoon, and did not encounter anything special again.
But what is a bit strange is that the dinner party between Li Xue and Zhang Junmin did not continue in Honglong Garden. Instead, the guests left together after drinking tea and playing cards in the afternoon. As for Liu Xing, although he also saw Li Xue and Zhang Junmin, it was even certain that the two of them saw themselves, but both sides ignored each other in a tacit understanding.
Already a stranger.
Liu Xing sighed. Unexpectedly, only a few years had passed, and many things were running in an uncontrollable direction.
Of course, since Li Xue and Li Xue have left Honglong Garden, it means that the modules related to them have either ended or will enter the final plot elsewhere; but to be honest, Liu Xing has I haven't figured out what happened to the module related to Li Xue and Li Xue. After all, it is now known that Li Xue and Li Xue's marriage is superficially in harmony but not really in love.
And Li Xue seemed to want to do something.
But having said that, I don’t know what is going on with Wu Lei and Liu Hanyue now. Would it be a little abrupt if I tried to persuade them to go abroad for their honeymoon? After all, I am just an outsider.
However, Liu Xing was not willing to let Wu Lei and Liu Qindong be in opposing camps in the same module. After all, they both said they were good friends.
But Liu Xing hasn't found any good opportunity to meet Wu Lei yet. . .
In the end, it turned out that Cao Cao was about to arrive. Liu Xing saw Wu Lei and Liu Hanyue walking towards the tea house at a glance, but this also made Liu Xing a little confused, because Liu Xing didn't know whether Liu Hanyue recognized him.
If Liu Hanyue still remembered herself, then this scene would be a bit embarrassing, because the changes in Liu Hanyue can no longer be described as a change of appearance. This is completely a direct change of person, and Liu Hanyue's sudden disappearance back then was also problematic, so Liu Xing estimated that if Liu Hanyue had not cultivated her mentality to 99% in the past few years, she would still be very embarrassed when she saw him.
Will I recognize Liu Hanyue by then?
Liu Xing thought about it, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, so Liu Xing, who had some social phobia, finally decided not to meet Liu Hanyue.
Therefore, Liu Xing pretended to continue chatting with He Rong and others about some messy topics. Seeing this, Wu Lei also knew Liu Xing's thoughts, so he did not talk to Liu Xing.
However, after Wu Lei entered the tea house, Liu Xing received a message from Wu Lei, saying that he came to the tea house to pay the bill because some customers had just taken a few packs of cigarettes and charged them to his account.
Before Liu Xing could reply, Wu Lei sent another one.
This message is quite special, because Wu Lei and Liu Hanyue were chatting with each other in the dressing room in the afternoon, and then Wu Lei couldn't help but ask Liu Hanyue why she chose to get married here, and Liu Hanyue naturally It was impossible to tell Wu Lei the truth, so I just said that I had attended other people's weddings here before, so I thought this place was not bad. In addition, I heard that Wu Kun and Wu Lei's mother also lived here, so I came here. Decided to hold the wedding here.
Then before Wu Lei could continue to ask questions, Liu Hanyue directly changed the topic and mentioned their honeymoon.
What made Liu Xing feel very depressed was that Liu Hanyue directly said that they should go to the scenic spot in Qinling Mountains for their honeymoon, because it was her home field. Not only did they not have to spend a penny, but they could also have a lot of fun.
More importantly, Liu Hanyue's grandparents are recuperating there.
According to Liu Hanyue, her grandparents had suffered several serious illnesses in the past two years, so they were not in good condition now, so she was sent to a scenic spot in the Qinling Mountains to recuperate, because in Liu Hanyue's opinion, the air there was The quality is very good, and it is far away from the hustle and bustle of the world. The most important thing is that this scenic spot has its own small sanatorium, so the supporting doctors and nurses are all professional, and the various medical equipment are no worse than those of ordinary hospitals. .
Although Liu Hanyue's grandparents are in good health recently, it is too much trouble to travel back to attend their wedding. So Liu Hanyue asked her grandparents to stay in the scenic spot, so now it is not difficult to go to the scenic spot for her honeymoon. It’s like parents meeting parents.
In this way, Wu Lei has no reason to refuse. After all, filial piety comes first. Wu Lei can't possibly say that he doesn't want to see Liu Hanyue's grandparents, right?
Therefore, Liu Xing felt that Wu Lei would most likely collide with Liu Qindong, and he could only hope that they would not fight to the death.
"Let's go, Song He has asked us to come over for dinner."
He Rong stood up and said a little depressed: "I have to go back home after dinner. My uncle is really as fierce as a tiger in his tricks. In the end, he was sent in, and my family had to go as soon as possible." Moving out, so I have to go home and pack my things later.”
Liu Xing smiled and said: "Actually, your family doesn't need to be in such a hurry, right? Now your uncle will definitely not be able to get out in less than ten days and a half, and he may be locked up for several years, or simply sent to prison. Enter a mental hospital, so you don’t have to rush this moment.”
"But my parents are a little worried. After all, in their opinion, my uncle has become crazy and is capable of anything, so my parents feel that they have to move as soon as possible to get rid of my uncle completely; and I My parents were actually ready to move a long time ago, because my father has a friend who has an unused house in Shuangqing. It is the kind of house that no one has lived in after it was renovated. And my father’s friend has been working abroad recently. The business may not come back within a few years, and even if he comes back, he may settle in a big coastal city because he still needs to do business.”
"So the price of this house is very low, which is the price of a clear-water house back then. It does not take into account the increase in housing prices and decoration factors in recent years. Therefore, my parents actually want to buy this house, but they have never made up their minds. After all, Chengdu is not far from Shuangqing, nor is it close. Although moving there will not affect the original relationship with relatives, it will definitely have an impact on the family's business; but there is nothing that can be done now. This family will definitely not move. It doesn’t work anymore, so my parents have contacted me to buy a house. If nothing happens, I can move in directly tomorrow.”
"Then your father's friend is not bad."
Deng Yan said with some envy: "You are willing to give up so much profit. It seems that your father's friend must be a big businessman, right?"
"It's not bad. I heard my father say that his friend seems to be contracting mines abroad, and he seems to be one of the first people to go out to do business, so he has a good relationship with the locals, so he can be regarded as lying down these years. He was making money; but he bought an iron mine some time ago, only to find out after the purchase that there was something wrong with the iron mine! To put it simply, this iron mine seemed unlucky, as the previous mine owners were Accidents happen every now and then, and the cause cannot be found. It seems like one accident after another, but successive mine owners have added safety measures, but accidents still happen."
Speaking of this, He Rong said happily: "If I had not taken the postgraduate entrance examination, I would most likely follow this uncle to develop abroad, because my uncle and my father have been friends for decades, and they have At that time, my father helped him buy various items in China and send them there. So after my uncle heard that I was going to graduate from college, he said that if I was willing to come and help, he would give me double my salary! So I took the postgraduate entrance examination that year. I struggled for a while when I succeeded; but if I really went, you might not be able to see me now, because something happened to my uncle's iron mine some time ago. I don't know why the detonator was just put down. He blew it up himself, killing or injuring many people nearby."
"Is there a quality problem with the detonator? Or did someone operate it improperly?" Deng Yan asked curiously.
"Probably not, because my uncle bought this batch of detonators from an acquaintance, and they have not had a single problem after working together for more than ten years! And the people who installed the detonators are also professionals, and professionals like this either have no problems. , or something went wrong and people disappeared; most importantly, my uncle didn’t believe in evil, so he installed a lot of surveillance cameras in the mine to find out the real cause of the accident, because he really didn’t know much about it. I believe these accidents are all coincidences, but guess what? Before the detonator happened, the surveillance cameras suddenly had signal problems."
He Rong took a sip of tea and continued: "You know, my uncle specially pulled a network cable into the mine, just to avoid the signal being affected. As a result, there was no problem at all, but at this critical moment, the chain dropped. Yes! But what’s a bit strange is that my uncle could still vaguely see a burst of fire a second before the detonator failed, and the appearance of fire at this time is definitely abnormal! "
Fire?
Liu Xing immediately thought of the Flame Essence, because the mine was originally a common activity area for the Flame Essence, so Liu Xing estimated that there was a Flame Essence nest in the iron mine, so the Flame Essence was disturbed by the mining activities. They kept making trouble and forcing these mine owners to quit.
Of course, in addition to the Fire Essence, there is another possibility, that is, there are relics of an ancient civilization under this iron mine, and the reason why the iron mine continues to have accidents is that the automatic defense function of this relic is triggered, so only in Things happen when you mine ore.
"As a chemist, I feel that if I went to work at my uncle's place, I would probably come into contact with something like a detonator."
He Rong sighed and said with a wry smile: "So it is very likely that I will be turned into pieces in this accident and cannot be put back together. However, my uncle is also very unlucky this time. In addition to having to pay compensation, In addition to many people, I have to find a way to sell this iron mine, because if accidents like this happen a few more times, my uncle will also be bankrupt, so selling the house at a low price this time can be regarded as working capital."
"But iron ore like this shouldn't be sold, right? After all, this has deceived several mine owners." Feng Sen shook his head and said.
"That's not necessarily true. As long as you set the price low enough, there will always be some people who don't believe in evil who want to take a gamble." Deng Yan replied with a smile.
