Real Cthulhu Running Game

"You can rest assured on this. I don't think any player will be short-sighted enough to betray us. After all, the benefits that can be obtained by betraying us are nothing more than a small profit, and they are all trivial extraneous things. You must know that we The most indispensable thing for players is money, unless the amount of money can reach an order of magnitude; and the consequences of betraying us are also very simple, that is, don’t even think about settling down in Boyang City, because most of today’s players in Boyang City have already We have joined the alliance, so if they dare to betray us, then don’t even think about taking to the streets.”

Meng Jin said with a smile: "The most important thing is that the reason why these players regard Boyang City as their birthplace is also obvious. That is, next to Boyang City is Wangxiang Terrace, so I guess these people plan to first Learn skills from a teacher, and then go to Wangxiangtai to try your luck. If you are lucky, you will make a lot of money. As long as the wolf players are right in their minds, they should know that Wangxiangtai has been targeted by our alliance. Therefore, if they still want to go to Wangxiangtai, they can only choose to join us, otherwise they will go to Wangxiangtai. The difficulty is not one plus one.”

As soon as Meng Jin finished speaking, Ling Yi suddenly said: "Speaking of Wangxiangtai, I heard a piece of news that I don't know whether it is true or not, that is, it was mentioned in a book called "Collection of Poems by Ren Yunxia" A place named Wangxiangtai! As far as I know, this Ren Yunxia is also a famous wandering poet in the New Dragon Empire. Of course, he is also a qualified traveler, because his parents are also considered to have the merit of following the dragon, and many The martial arts masters who assist the new Dragon Emperor have a good relationship, so Ren Yunxia has been practicing various martial arts since childhood, but his talent is also relatively average, so he can only learn a little bit, but it is enough."

"Then there is a very classic plot - Ren Yunxia's parents arranged a marriage for him. As a result, Ren Yunxia was not satisfied with the woman, but the marriage was not easy to avoid, so he simply walked away. He began to travel throughout the Xinlong Empire. He usually made money by writing things for others in the city. He accepted all letters and couplets from anyone who came. Occasionally, he would go to places like poetry gatherings and write by himself. to win a prize for his poems; so "Collected Poems of Ren Yunxia" is his work during this period. I took a look at the poems in it and they are actually quite good, and this collection of poems can also be regarded as Ren Yunxia's travel notes, because the collection of poems There are many poems describing famous mountains and rivers, which are highly overlapped with Ren Yunxia's travel route, and there are also some unknown places interspersed in them, but the specific locations of these places can be determined through investigation by interested people."

"So the book "Ren Yunxia's Travels" I read is a celebrity review version. Although the celebrity reviewer is a not-so-famous traveler, he has always envied Ren Yunxia's ability to travel around the world since he was a child, so he After some preparation, I reproduced Ren Yunxia's travel route and completed the relevant background of each poem, such as the general situation of the scenic spots, and what kind of stories Ren Yunxia left in the local area. By the way, I also wrote It comes with a landscape painting of the scenic spot, so this person is somewhat famous. Unfortunately, in general, his works are popular but not popular; but the problem is that several of Ren Yunxia's poems mention the three Wangxiang Terrace. The word "Wangxiangtai" is only mentioned once in the poem, so many people think that Wangxiangtai is not a real place name, but an image proposed by Ren Yunxia."

"Whether it was the reviewer who reproduced Ren Yunxia's travel route or the other people who made footnotes in "The Collected Poems of Ren Yunxia", they were not sure where Wangxiang Terrace was, but I took a look and Wangxiang Terrace appeared first. These three-character poem was written by Ren Yunxia at the Poetry Club in Boyang City, and this poem describes Heshan County. No, it should be said that the Heshan market was very lively at that time, and the local enthusiasm The villagers also invited Ren Yunxia to be a guest at his home! The most important thing is that according to the last sentence of Ren Yunxia’s poem, he accepted the invitation and went to the villager’s home as a guest, and then got drunk and ended up in a place called Wangxiang Terrace. Go to bed! Of course, in the opinion of those commentators, this is when Ren Yunxia saw the happy and harmonious host's house after having a good meal, so she thought of her family and hometown, so she called the place where she was. For Wangxiangtai."

Speaking of this, Ling Yi looked at everyone's surprised eyes and said: "But we all know that there is really such a place called Wangxiangtai near Heshan County, and the poems about Wangxiangtai were mentioned later. In it, Ren Yunxia also expressed her feelings about missing this place, so those commentators thought that she was using the scenery to express her feelings. But according to our players’ opinion, this should really mean she misses Wangxiangtai! I was thinking After that, I carefully studied the poems written after Wangxiangtai appeared, and found several poems about daily reflections. Although Wangxiangtai was not mentioned, they mentioned that they could not forget certain places, and of course the local people. those people."

"What you mean is that Ren Yunxia was invited to Wangxiang Terrace by someone back then. Wangxiang Terrace was a place where people lived at that time, so he lived very happily there. This is a bit like Li Bai's visit to Wangxiang Terrace back then. Wang Lun wrote poems. In addition to the most famous one "To Wang Lun", there were actually three other poems. This shows that the relationship between Li Bai and Wang Lun was really good. After all, Li Bai only wrote three poems for Du Fu. But Du Fu wrote more than ten poems for Li Bai; so if the Wangxiang Terrace written by Ren Yunxia is really the Wangxiang Terrace we are looking for, it means that there are likely to be people living in the area, and these people are on the surface. Disguised as an ordinary villager, he will go to the nearby Heshan market to do business."

Zhang Jingxu frowned and said: "My character card is from Heshan County, but the problem is that I have never heard of Wangxiangtai, or a village related to Wangxiangtai. You know, I have also deliberately investigated it before. , I found that if I walked in the direction of Wangxiangtai, there might only be two or three villages along the way, and these villages should be still a long way away from Wangxiangtai on the map, so this is a bit of a problem, because those villages The village has close ties with Heshan County, and there is usually nothing unusual, unless a certain village hides the secret road to Wangxiang Terrace."

"The large hermitage is hidden in the city, and the small hermitage is hidden in the wild. Wangxiangtai can be regarded as a combination of large and small, right? It was originally hidden in the mountains, but it turned out that someone had opened a market nearby, so I simply joined it as a village, so that They look normal; and ordinary people these days stay on their own one-third of an acre of land all their lives. If they have nothing to do, they are unlikely to visit nearby villages, not to mention that they have to walk such a long mountain road... But the question arises again, how could these Wangxiangtai people invite Ren Yunxia to their village? Logically speaking, Ren Yunxia was still a little-known person at that time, and could even be said to be a passer-by." Meng Jin He said with a confused look on his face.

"Then there is only one possibility, that is, the people in Wangxiangtai actually know Ren Yunxia, ​​or they know Ren Yunxia's parents, because the surname Ren is not very common. Anyway, I only know two surnames when I grow up. Among the Ren people, one is named Ren Woxing, and the other is a female celebrity named Ren. In short, I don’t have any acquaintance named Ren around me; and we have been in this martial arts module for a while, Therefore, we should also be able to find that even without looking at the clothes, we can still tell the general identity of a person from his appearance and mental state. So although Ren Yunxia will inevitably eat and sleep in the open on this journey, he has always relied on his own knowledge. Make money, like writing letters or something."

After Ling Yi took a sip of tea, she said seriously: "So I think that when Ren Yunxia passed by Heshan Market, she would also set up a stall to write letters for people coming and going, but she was recognized by the people at Wangxiangtai. When I came out, I found out that he was a descendant of the Ren family, and learned that Ren Yunxia could also write poems while wandering around, and she also intended to compile a collection of poems after the wandering. After all, Ren Yunxia was only 20 at that time. I am in my early years, which is the age when I like to be in the limelight. After learning about this matter, the people at Wangxiangtai also started to think about it. However, these are all my personal guesses, so they are only for your reference. If you guess wrong Don’t blame me! That is, Wangxiang Tower was built in secret, and probably no one except the builders of Wangxiang Tower knew about it, including their accomplices in other places."

"Wangxiangtai, as the name suggests, is a high platform that can be used to overlook your hometown. The core of it is two words - homesickness! So if my guess is true, then the construction of Wangxiangtai was started after the new Dragon Emperor ascended the throne. It took about ten years to complete, and during this period there must have been a lot of losses. After all, the construction site of Wangxiang Terrace was in the deep mountains and old forests, where it was not only difficult to build, but also to obtain supplies and building materials. It is also very difficult, so unless this Wangxiang Terrace is really just a pavilion, there will definitely be a lot of people involved in the construction, but not too many. After all, it is not easy to gather so many people into the deep mountains and old forests. "

"All in all, if you want to build Wangxiang Terrace, you will definitely have to pay a huge price, so there should not be many people staying in Wangxiang Terrace in the end, so they could only find a place to live nearby, and then they met a small The small problem is how to spread the news about the completion of Wangxiang Tower. After all, this Wangxiang Tower should not be placed there for decoration; but, you should be able to guess that these people who built Wangxiang Tower probably They are on the opposite side of the New Dragon Emperor, so they dare not go out at will, because this may cause Wangxiangtai to be destroyed, but they also want to let other people know the existence of Wangxiangtai, so Ren Yunxia became the breakthrough point in their eyes."

"After learning about Ren Yunxia's situation, these people deliberately approached Ren Yunxia, ​​and then found an opportunity to invite Ren Yunxia to their village as a guest. After Ren Yunxia became extremely drunk, they took him to Wangxiang Terrace The periphery, or some unimportant but seemingly powerful places, in short, is to make Ren Yunxia remember it deeply without causing too much suspicion; just to be on the safe side, I went to check some other places before. Books, I found that this martial arts module also has a Peach Blossom Spring type of legend, and the earliest version appeared more than 300 years ago, so I suspect that the people at Wangxiangtai may have deceived Ren Yunxia into believing it. Wangxiang Terrace is also a paradise for peach blossoms, and at the same time, Ren Yunxia vowed not to tell anyone about Wangxiang Terrace casually."

"Isn't it enough for outsiders?"

Zhang Jingxu took over and said: "It is indeed possible, because Ren Yunxia has learned martial arts from many martial arts masters since he was a child, so he should also have a sense of heroic spirit, that is, to abide by his oath, maybe this is also Wangxiangtai The reason why the people were eyeing him; in short, Ren Yunxia might have stayed in Wangxiangtai for a while and had a lot of fun, so when the people in Wangxiangtai mentioned that she didn’t want to be disturbed by too many outsiders, Ren Yunxia I swore that I would not tell others about my experience at Wangxiang Terrace, but I couldn’t help but recall Wangxiang Terrace in my poems, so I wrote the words Wangxiang Terrace?”

"No, I suspect that the people from Wangxiangtai deliberately asked Ren Yunxia to leave the words "wangxiangtai" in the poem! This is what I think. The person who has the most contact with Ren Yunxia should also be a cultural person, because he What needs to be done is to guide Ren Yunxia, ​​so according to my thinking, this person will most likely choose to make friends through poetry and write and recite poems with Ren Yunxia; thus, Ren Yunxia wrote this first poem. When the poem about Wangxiangtai was first mentioned, the man started praising the poem. Finally, when leaving, he said that Ren Yunxia could keep the poem as a testimony of their friendship, and reminded Ren Yunxia of it later. I will continue to write poems while I am at Wangxiang Terrace. Anyway, if I just mention the three words Wangxiang Terrace, nothing will happen."

Ling Yi sighed and said: "If this is really the case, then Ren Yunxia has been fooled. His collection of poems will let interested people know that Wangxiang Terrace has been built and is located near Boyang City. So as long as these people go to Boyang City and inquire about it, they will have a way to go to Wangxiangtai. Therefore, I personally think that Wangxiangtai is probably related to some people from the previous royal family, in order to one day make a comeback. Of course It may also be to survive, but in short, we must be fully prepared when we investigate Wangxiangtai."

"My friend, what you said makes sense, but the problem is that this guess only comes from a collection of poems."
