Real Cthulhu Running Game

"Why are you here?"

Liu Xing and Yin En said at the same time.

"Well, didn't I go to Junxiang? I've heard all kinds of rumors there, so they are planning to move. After all, the situation in Junxiang is even more embarrassing than in Heshan County. Because Heshan County has been more or less recognized by Boyang City and Far West City, and Junxiang has only received acquiescence at most; therefore, in the eyes of the folks in Junxiang, if the war spreads near Junxiang, then They are likely to lose their lives and money, so they have to find a place to get out of the limelight.”

Yin En spoke first: "So Junxiang gathered everyone together yesterday and decided to go to Tianshui Town to avoid disaster before I could say anything. The reason is similar to what we thought before. First of all, Liu Xing, I am the leader of the alliance. Good brother, so if I speak, there is no need to worry that Liu Xing will refuse them to move into Tianshui Town; and then there is Tianshui Town. Although Tianshui Town was burned to the ground more than ten years ago, Tianshui Town is still on the fish scale album of Boyang City. , I have seen this with my own eyes.”

"So, the folks in Junxiang also want to take this opportunity to become residents of Tianshui Town, which can be regarded as giving themselves a formal status. As for the few thin fields in Junxiang, they will be gone. Anyway, these fields are very important. Barren, or if these fields were not barren, it would be impossible for the folks from Junxiang to settle here. Finally, and most importantly, Liu Xing, you have been recognized by the third prince, so the folks also believe in Tianshui Town. The defensive strength will not be bad, and it will not be a problem to survive this chaos."

Everything is expected.

Liu Xing nodded and said with a smile: "If all the folks from Junxiang are willing to join Tianshui Town, then I will naturally support it with both hands, so Yin En, you should be responsible for this matter these two days, just in time for the wedding. This opportunity allows the folks from Junxiang to move directly to Tianshui Town; but then again, how many people are there in Junxiang now? And are there any talents among these people? What can they bring to our alliance? "

Faced with Liu Xing's questions, Yin En took out a letter from his pocket, "The reason why I am standing here now, in addition to coming back to get some new clothes for my fiancée, is to remove me from All kinds of information collected by Junxiang were written into a letter, and then someone was sent to Tianshui Town. After all, Junxiang was considered to have a prosperous population. Except for some tourists who had not returned yet, more than three people could go to Tianshui Town. Hundreds of people! So if Tianshui Town doesn’t prepare early, it will definitely be in a hurry when the time comes.”

Liu Xing nodded in agreement and said: "Yes, dozens of people suddenly came to Tianshui Town two days ago, which has already made us extremely busy. We can only find people to help temporarily, so if these more than 300 people are also If you arrive in Tianshui Town suddenly, you will only be busy with one thing that day; but I am planning to go to the Taoist Temple today and may not return to Tianshui Town until the afternoon, so you still have to find someone to send this letter back first. , let the other side make preparations in advance! By the way, Brother Ding’s character card left a few letters home in your house, so let me bring them back to him, lest he get another homesickness debuff."

"No problem, several families will go to Tianshui Town later, so I planned to ask them to help me carry this letter from the beginning. As for Brother Ding's family letters, I have also found them, because my family has not been here in the past two days. I'm packing my things, and I'll send these letters back later."

Yin En looked at the sky and continued: "Then I will accompany you to the Taoist temple. I can also talk to you on the way, but you have to wait for me on the bridge for a while. I will go and deliver the letter first. ”

Liu Xing naturally would not refuse, so he took Jin Neo and others to the bridge first.

At this time, Liu Xing, who was standing on the road, could clearly feel the word - depression, because there were only a few people on the road where people were originally coming and going, and they were all coming and going in a hurry. At first glance, they seemed to be in a hurry, and occasionally There were several people traveling with us, and they were a family carrying large and small bags.

The storm is about to come and the wind is filling the building.

This sentence flashed through Liu Xing's mind again, and he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

At this moment, Liu Xing suddenly saw a motorcade, but judging from the flag hanging on the leading car, it was a theater troupe that was performing a new play.

Because most of the NPCs in the martial arts module this time are illiterate, many smaller shops do not have signboards, but hang various patterned flags to indicate what kind of business they are doing, so the troupe The same is true, but they will change the color of the circle around the flag according to their status. White means that they are currently idle, then black means that they are going to perform somewhere, and red means that they are going to perform somewhere. They have new operas coming out and are ready for performances.

New play?

Liu Xing suddenly thought of the troupe that performed the stage play in Boyang City before.

It can't be such a coincidence, right?

Liu Xing thought for a while and felt that this was impossible, because the troupe was not very lucky. The lord of Boyang City passed away just after the show started, so they could not perform. After all, they were still beating gongs at this time. When it comes to drumming, it’s somewhat disrespectful.

Therefore, in Liu Xing's opinion, the troupe should have left Boyang City long ago and continued to move towards Liangcheng. After all, the troupe likes places with many people like this.

But then again, Liu Xing is also thinking about whether to take this opportunity to invite a few theater troupes to Tianshui Town, because in this module that lacks entertainment activities, the meaning of the theater troupes is equivalent to the TV set in the real world. , of course this is a limited edition during the winter and summer vacations, with TV series such as "Journey to the West" and "The Legend of White Snake" coming back and forth.

But this is enough.

And at this time, unless they are a very famous troupe, it is impossible to offer high prices to employers who are willing to take them in. After all, it will be difficult for them to receive business for a long time in the future, so Food and drink for so many people cost a lot of money, and they also had to find a place to live.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing carefully observed the members of this troupe and found that they were more or less unhappy. It seemed that the situation of this troupe was not optimistic.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing asked Jin Neo to stop the troupe.

Seeing that business was coming to his door, the class leader who was sitting in the lead car immediately jumped out and trotted all the way to Liu Xing.

"Sir, are you looking for someone to sing in an opera? Our Hongyun Opera Troupe can perform all the classics!" the troupe leader said with a smile.

Liu Xing nodded and went straight to the topic: "Oh, so how does your Hongyun Theater Company charge? If appropriate, I don't mind taking care of your business, but you should also know what the market is now, and your Hongyun Theater Company It must be from other places, right?”

As soon as Liu Xing said this, the class leader knew what Liu Xing meant. It was nothing more than a hint to him not to talk casually, but to think clearly before making an offer.

Especially at this time.

The troupe leader gritted his teeth and stamped his foot and said: "Young master, since you said so, how about we each take a step back? Our Hongyun Opera Troupe is willing to sing for you for free, but you have to provide us with food and accommodation. Of course, this can't be too bad. !”

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the leader of the Hongyun Theater Troupe would be so upright and didn't even need to bargain. It seemed that he was also a person who could assess the situation and knew that theater troupes like them now had no room for bargaining.

After all, it's a buyer's market right now.

"Don't worry, as long as your Hongyun Opera Troupe is willing to come to my place and perform well, then I will definitely not treat you badly, not only in terms of food and accommodation, but also in terms of your wages."

Liu Xing said seriously: "You should know Tianshui Town. If you don't know, it doesn't matter. I can tell you that behind Tianshui Town is the Third Prince, so as long as you go there and sing well, you will get nothing." It will be less!”

"We are willing to go to Sweetwater Town to sing opera!"

The class leader quickly said: "We originally planned to go to Tianshui Town, because we heard yesterday that Tianshui Town was rebuilt under the instructions of the third prince, so we were thinking about going to Tianshui Town to try our luck, after all... "

The class leader's words stopped abruptly, because Liu Xing was a subordinate of the third prince, so there were certain things that he couldn't say casually.

"Then you go directly there. When you get there, tell them that you met someone in Heshan County and asked you to come and sing in an opera. The people over there will know what's going on."

Liu Xing smiled and continued: "If you can, let's put on a play tonight. You also know that everything in Tianshui Town is still in full swing, so everyone has been very tired these days."

"No problem! Our theater troupe happened to be rehearsing a few new pieces, and they were also combined with some stage plays from the west..."

Before the class leader finished speaking, Liu Xing interrupted in surprise: "Ah? Have you performed in Boyang City for more than ten days? I was your audience at that time, and I still keep the posters you distributed, but you Didn’t you use another name at that time?”

Hearing what Liu Xing said, the class leader said with some embarrassment: "Yes, it's us. As for why we changed the name, we were afraid that the newly scheduled dramas would damage our brand. After all, those dramas are not the same as our original ones." The play is very different."

At this moment, Yin En also came over.

So, Liu Xing sent the Hongyun Theater Troupe to Tianshui Town, and then came to the Taoist Temple with Yin En and others.

Because the Taoist temple in the martial arts module is still a little popular this time, there is a path leading to the Taoist temple, and now Liu Xing can already see the smoke coming out of the Taoist temple.

It seems that there are indeed people living in the Taoist temple, and there should be quite a few of them.

"In ancient times, professional scouts could judge the number of enemy troops by the amount of smoke. Those of us who are bodyguards also learned similar knowledge. After all, we usually have to deal with all kinds of bandits."

Jin Neo looked at the smoke and said seriously: "If everyone in the Taoist temple is in a group, then the number should be about ten people, at least five people."

Liu Xing looked at Jin Neo sternly without realizing it, nodded and said: "Then we are not much different in terms of numbers, but we still try not to conflict with them. As for when they ask us what we do, we just say we are It’s here to offer incense.”

Yin En on the side also said: "Liu Peng and I are both locals of Heshan County, so it is reasonable to say that we are here to offer incense. And I just heard that a Taoist priest went to the Taoist temple yesterday, but this Taoist priest It looked quite strange because he was carrying a long gun."

In this martial arts module, all martial arts people who come from Taoist sects basically use swords as weapons. Only a small number of them can use whisks as weapons. In short, those who use guns are not only one in a hundred, but also one in ten thousand. .

So this Taoist priest is indeed quite strange.

"It seems that this person is either a fake Taoist priest, or a Taoist priest with a story, or a Taoist priest who became a monk on the way, so he uses a spear as his weapon."

Liu Xing touched his chin and said: "As the saying goes, you have practiced swordsmanship for three years, swordsmanship for ten years, and guns for a lifetime. Therefore, those who can carry guns around the world are either useless. Either he is a real master, so we still have to be careful not to conflict with this Taoist priest, otherwise none of us can escape."

Because of Yin En's arrival, the people who entered the Taoist temple became Liu Xing, Yin En and Jin Neo, while the remaining four people stayed near the entrance of the Taoist temple.

Then Liu Xing and the others were rejected because the Taoist temple door was closed and locked from the inside.

This is a bit too much!

After the Taoist temple gradually fell into disuse, the original door lock disappeared, just like the ruined temple Liu Xing used to hide from the rain. And no one thought about adding another lock afterwards. After all, it was not kind enough to do so. Just like locking a shared bicycle in the real world, you will get scolded.

"Did the Taoist priest yesterday want to stay in this Taoist temple?"

Liu Xing knocked on the door, but there was no sound at all.

Yin En shook his head and said with a smile: "It seems that the people inside are cooking in the kitchen, so they can't hear our knocking. It seems that we have to stay at the door for a while, so I will talk to you about Junxiang." Let’s talk about the situation there! The main reason is that there are so many talented people there, they can be said to be proficient in all aspects of music, chess, calligraphy and painting.”

"Uh, how do you say this?" Liu Xing asked doubtfully.

"The thing is like this, didn't the older generation of Junxiang people escape from other places, so these people can be said to have all kinds of religions, so their descendants more or less followed them, but they usually also There's nothing useful about it, so it can only be said to be an arm's length exercise on paper, but it's enough for us." Yin En said with a smile.
