Real Cthulhu Running Game

"By the way, Liu Peng, you are not in a hurry to return to Tianshui Town now, are you?"

Yin En suddenly said: "My family should have prepared lunch by now, so let's go back and eat and chat."

Liu Xing thought for a while, then nodded and said: "That's okay. Anyway, we have left the Taoist temple now, and there is basically no danger, so we can return to Tianshui Town before dark after dinner; but then again , Yin Qiang, do you remember that bachelor named Luo Tiedan? He is also getting married today, and he asked me to come over for a wedding banquet. "

When Yin En heard Liu Xing mention Luo Tiedan, his face suddenly became serious, "Liu Peng, you may not understand the current situation. There may be something wrong with Luo Tiedan's wife, because she was born today." I was sent over by my family when it was still dark. You must know that summer lights up very early, so I guess it was around five o'clock. Although the man and woman getting married this time was an old bachelor and the other was a widow, But it’s not like that, right? So I suspect that Luo Tiedan’s wife might be a bit shameful.”

After searching in his mind, Liu Xing determined that Far West City and its nearby towns did not have the custom of sending off relatives in the middle of the night, so Luo Tiedan's wife would not have visited the house while it was still dawn.

"This question may be big or small. It mainly depends on the identity of Luo Tiedan's wife."

Jin Neo on the side said: "When we met Luo Tiedan this morning, Luo Tiedan also said that he would take his wife to Tianshui Town, so we can see what is going on with her then."

"Well, since Luo Tiedan is willing to show up with his wife, it means that the problem here is not big. Is it possible that the family is just anxious to let him go?"

Yin En said as he walked: "The NPCs in this martial arts module should rarely get divorced, so this kind of widow who was sent back to her natal family is probably like this because she lost her husband, so she is very likely to be in this situation. Some gossipy women in the local area say that he is a life-killer for his husband; people's words are terrible, especially in this martial arts module, all kinds of rumors can really be turned into sharp knives, so the mother-in-law is willing to accept a husband like Luo Tiedan. ... Of course, if nothing unexpected happens, Luo Tiedan may never see his wife’s natal family in his lifetime.”

Liu Xing nodded, feeling that Yin En's explanation was very reasonable.

Soon, Liu Xing and others returned to the tailor shop, and "Yin Qiang"'s parents had already prepared a table of meals. Since they still had things to pack, they finished their lunch in advance, so this was convenient. Liu Xing and others sat down and chatted.

"The biggest question now is Tie Qiang's identity, or who he is working for."

Liu Xing picked up the bowl and said: "If Tie Qiang is just a neutral unit, then we don't need to worry about anything. But if Tie Qiang lied and he was working for a prince other than the third prince, then he is now staying in The Taoist temple is just waiting for an opportunity to cause trouble, so we must be careful, after all, we are too close to him, and in the eyes of outsiders, we are still the direct subordinates of the third prince."

"Yes, the most important thing is that we are now operating in Sweetwater Town. Sweetwater Town was burned down many years ago and then abandoned for many years. Therefore, under normal circumstances, it is unlikely that we would choose Sweetwater Town as our site. After all, we are big You can choose the surrounding areas of Liangcheng; so from the perspective of outsiders, there is a reason for us to stay in Tianshui Town, and it should be specially arranged by the third prince, so even if Tieqiang does not come, others will come to Tianshui Town to inquire. Situation! Anyway, we still have to take precautions."

Yin En continued: "But then again, didn't Tie Qiang say that his master went to visit the overseas fairy mountains? And we know that the so-called overseas fairy mountains are most likely to be related to some expelled scholars. Related, so I suspect that Iron Spear belongs to a force other than the nine princes, and this force may be hostile to all nine princes."

Hearing what Yin En said, Liu Xing nodded and said: "There is such a possibility! At present, in addition to the power of the nine princes, the most powerful existences we know of are two - the former prince and the expelled princes. Zibaijia, they all have reasons to oppose the New Dragon Empire, and their strength may be no less than a certain prince. The most important thing is that the chess pieces of these two forces are scattered throughout the New Dragon Empire. You just have to deal with them. Partial actions cannot affect the overall situation."

"So the iron gun may be one of the chess pieces! But speaking of chess pieces, I remember that the chess pieces that have been announced so far seem to have nothing to do with the iron gun. Therefore, the master of the iron gun may be a high-level chess piece, so someone is drawing His information was not released after that," Jinio said curiously.

Liu Xing thought for a while and then said: "A famous teacher gives birth to a great apprentice. It is impossible for a mediocre master to teach an iron spear that is at least a second-rate pinnacle level, let alone to have this apprentice follow him wholeheartedly and serve as a master. What's more, This pair of masters and apprentices are still casual cultivators; so the master of Iron Spear should be a first-class master, and he also hides some secrets, otherwise he would not have been able to cultivate a Taoist temple many years ago, or in a place like Heshan County. A place where there is no village in front and no store in back.”

"If there is anything special about Heshan County, it is that it is very close to Wangxiang Terrace, so we have reason to suspect that the master of Tieqiang knows about the existence of Wangxiang Terrace, and even comes from Wangxiang Terrace! In short, We have to pay attention to the movement of the iron gun. It is best to let Yu Lei investigate the iron gun; then again, the rooster's crow can make the iron gun change his face and rush to deal with it, then It shows that this matter is neither big nor small, but if left unchecked, big problems may occur.”

"Warcraft?"

Jin Neo said seriously: "So the rooster crows may be related to World of Warcraft, because I noticed that the doors and windows of the wing are normal, so there is no reason why the wing is opaque, causing the rooster inside to crow randomly. ; So if the doors and windows are normal, the rooster in the wing should crow on time, and if it is a normal rooster, it should be let out to roam instead of being locked in a room. After all, the weather is so hot now. A rooster locked up in a room will become a snack."

"Yeah, I also think that this rooster, or the animal that can crow, is a monster, and it is a kinder type, otherwise it wouldn't be just locked up in the wing."

Liu Xing took a sip of tea and continued: "In short, this iron gun is really not simple. Before we can determine whether he is an enemy or a friend, we must be more careful about him."

"Be careful and you won't make a big mistake. A martial arts master like Tie Qiang who is so powerful but whose identity is still unknown deserves our extra attention. But Liu Peng, do you still remember our original reasoning?" Yin En asked.

"Of course, we didn't think that there were four magical beasts near Heshan County, occupying the four directions of southeast, northwest and northwest. Among them, the only magical beasts on the Taoist temple are still uncertain! So you mean that the iron gun brought Is it possible that this monster is the monster we guessed? Or is this monster related to the original monster in the Taoist temple?" Liu Xing said with a frown.

"Yes, I just think that the reason why Tie Qiang returned to the Taoist temple and brought a magical beast with him was probably to deal with this magical beast that had been staying in the Taoist temple for who knows how many years! Because Tie Qiang mentioned that he He will come back, mainly because he received orders from his master, so we have reason to suspect that his master sensed something; combined with the strange things that happened in the Taoist temple before, we can speculate that the monster in the Taoist temple may be good at spiritual things. attack, so the monster that Iron Gun brought back now can just restrain it, because sonic skills like rooster crow can restrain mental spells in many games."

"Mutual and mutual restraint? Some Warcraft can indeed restrain other Warcraft. Even if they cannot defeat other Warcraft, and even lose one-on-one with humans, they can defeat those very powerful Warcraft." Jin Neo nodded.

As soon as Jin Neo finished speaking, a bell suddenly rang!

Liu Xing subconsciously looked towards the direction where the bell was coming from, and found that the bell was coming from the high tower as expected.

"here we go again?"

Liu Xing looked at Yin En and asked, "Have you ever heard such bells in Heshan County these days? Has anyone mentioned anything strange happened over there in the tower?"

Yin En didn't even think about it, just shook his head and said: "No, I have never heard the bells in the past two days, and I never mentioned the tower when chatting with the neighbors. You know, things like this are very dangerous. Good conversation piece, if it had happened someone would have mentioned it.”

In this martial arts module that lacks entertainment activities, a trivial matter can become a topic of conversation for several days, so a "big event" like the sudden ringing of a bell in an unmanned tower is the focus of everyone's discussion.

"So we are going to investigate the tower?" Jinio asked.

Liu Xing thought for a while, and finally shook his head and said: "Forget it, we are leaving here soon, and we will not come back to live permanently in a short time, so if we start investigating the tower now, it will not only be difficult to investigate If the truth is revealed, and we may be attacked by potential enemies, then we will lose more than we gain! In short, if the sudden ringing of the bell is some people who are pretending, then sooner or later they will reveal their flaws, especially in Heshan County After all the people are gone, they will most likely swell up and no longer worry about being discovered."

"So is there such a possibility?"

As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, Yin En said directly: "So this bell is actually related to the Warcraft? Even the bell we heard may not be a bell, but the sound made by the Warcraft! You know if the sound is Hong Zhong is an adjective."

Roosters and dogs crowing?

I don’t know why, but this idiom suddenly popped up in Liu Xing’s mind. Could it be that the rooster crows in the Taoist temple is actually related to the “bell” near the tower?

If this is the case, it means that the monster in the tower is entering its active period, and it may not be long before it will see the light of day again!

Fortunately, due to the accidental collision of his group, most residents of Heshan County chose to leave. Otherwise, when this monster appeared from the tower, there was no telling how much damage it would cause.

"Looks like we have to leave as soon as possible."

Yin En said seriously: "Fortunately, my family has almost packed their things, so you can go back to Shan County together this afternoon. As for me, I will go to Junxiang first and find a way to let them go tomorrow." We will set off directly the day after tomorrow..."

Before Yin En finished speaking, Liu Xing felt a sudden light above his head, and then saw a snowflake slowly falling on the table.

snowflake?

When Liu Xing looked up, he saw sparsely falling snowflakes in the sky. It seemed that this sudden fine snow had enveloped the entire Heshan County.

Snow in June?

No, it’s already summer, definitely after June, so isn’t snowing a bit too much at this time?

Besides, the weather is still so hot!

Obviously, this snow came very strangely and was definitely not a normal natural phenomenon.

"Liu Peng, do you still remember what we saw when we rushed to the scene after we heard the loud noise near the tower for the first time?" Yin En said with a frown.

"Ice, ice that has melted."

Liu Xing's eyes lit up and he said: "So, it seems that there is indeed a magical beast hidden under this tower, and this magical beast is very likely to have ice attributes! The most important thing is that it is still slowly waking up. In other words, it is restoring its own strength, so when it made a sound for the first time, it only caused a few more ice blocks near the tower; but now its ability has recovered a little, so it has been able to create a It’s snowing lightly, so if we continue at this pace, I doubt this monster is capable of creating a blizzard.”

"Well, wouldn't this monster be able to serve as an air conditioner?"

Jin Neo said with a smile: "The weather is so hot now. If there is a snowstorm, it will be equal to the cold and the hot. The final temperature should not be much colder, so this is a good thing for us, right? Can you at least keep cool for today?"

Liu Xing couldn't help but be stunned. He wanted to retort but couldn't find a suitable reason.

Because what Jinniao said is right. If the strength of this monster has not reached the point where it can turn things around, then the blizzard it creates and the hot weather in summer can indeed cancel each other out. In the end, this monster is a monster that can Active refrigeration and air conditioning.

So it would be a good choice to bring this monster back to light?

Of course, this monster still has to be dealt with before winter, otherwise the weather will be really cold at tens of degrees below zero.
