Real Cthulhu Running Game

Zhang Jingxu smiled, sat down and said, "Isn't it that Yin Qiang is getting married? How can I, a friend of mine, not come back? So I asked my master for a leave, and he also knew about my relationship with Yin Qiang. , so he gave me the leave without saying anything."

"That's true. Your master has met Yin Qiang before, so it's normal for him to be willing to give you a holiday. But isn't Boyang City busy yet? Logically speaking, your Zhang family should also take some action." Liu Xing asked curiously.

Zhang Jingxu took a sip of tea, nodded and said: "It is true. Boyang City has become lively, but unlike other cities, only a small number of residents in Boyang City have chosen to leave. Because of the The city defense is still trustworthy, and many residents in the city have been in Boyang City for several generations, so they are reluctant to leave their homes. As for Feishimen, they are already recruiting people to repair the city defense and have begun to collect rolling logs and stones. , and the blacksmith shop doesn’t stop working around the clock.”

"Then Feishimen also came to our Zhangjiamen, or all the sects whose addresses are outside Boyang City. To put it simply, for our own good, let us go to the city to live temporarily for a while. To put it bluntly, we want to Let us live under someone else's roof, so that we can be legitimately allowed to work and contribute; so the old leader had already discussed with the leaders of other sects yesterday, that is, wait and see what happens, and wait until the troops are really at the gate before going to the gambling. It’s not too late for Yangcheng, they have the confidence and trump card anyway.”

"That's right, in this martial arts module, even the weakest martial artists can still crush ordinary people with strength. Of course, those ordinary people with extraordinary talents are another matter; so you are now Even if you don’t give Feishimen face, Feishimen will politely arrange accommodation for you in the future. However, your Zhangjiamen’s position is indeed a bit awkward. You belong to the kind of people who will face the enemy at the first time, but such a large army is pressing down on the situation. , usually leaving enough reaction time for you."

Liu Xing continued to ask: "So how did Feishimen react after being rejected?"

"What other reaction could there be? Feishimen guessed our thoughts from the beginning, so the envoy sent to contact us this time was here to convey the message. After hearing our refusal, he found a reason to leave. Anyway, it was like As you said, leader, when the time comes, Zhangjiamen will also live in Boyang City honestly, it is only a matter of time."

At this point, Zhang Jingxu lowered his voice, "Didn't Boyang City want to make another fish scale atlas before? But now there is no time, so Guo Er has ordered the city to search for the lost fish scale atlas. , and there is still a huge reward! Of course, if the person who got the fish scale album is willing to choose to return it, then Guo Er will forget about it, and the reward will not be less."

"As expected, but this so-called heavy reward is just some gold and silver property, which is meaningless to us now, because we really don't need this little money." Liu Xing shook his head and said.

"Guo Er also thinks so. He knows that the person who took this fish scale album probably has no idea about money, because this thing itself is difficult to sell, not to mention that there are only a few possible buyers, so for normal people For the gentlemen in Liang Shang, instead of taking away the fish scale album, they might as well take away the bottles and cans next to it; so Guo Er felt that the person who took the fish scale album did not do it for money, so he offered the chips It’s just a martial arts secret book, or a request that’s not too excessive.”

Zhang Jingxu said with a smile: "According to my master's analysis, this martial arts secret book should be a kind of hard qigong similar to the Golden Bell Shield, Iron Cloth Shirt and so on, because many years ago, a passing cultivator came to challenge Feishimen. , and this person was using a self-created hard qigong, hoping to use it to resist the attack of flying stones; so the bet between the two parties at that time was that if the casual cultivator won, Feishimen would give him a sum of money, and Feishimen would If he wins, the casual cultivator will have to leave his hard qigong in Feishimen, but Feishimen cannot let people learn this martial art casually."

"As a result, you should have guessed that hard qigong like this usually has a very obvious weakness, so the sect leader of Feishi Sect at that time won by accident, so he felt that he was a bit invincible. After all, he They did not find out the weakness of this hard qigong, but they were lucky enough to win this round. So Feishimen spent money to buy the secret book of this hard qigong; only a few people have practiced this hard qigong over the years. Hard Qigong, because this martial art is not compatible with Feishi Sect, so this is why Guo Er is willing to use this Hard Qigong as a bargaining chip."

"Then how effective is this hard qigong? What kind of attacks can it block?" Meng Fugui asked.

Zhang Jingxu had long guessed that someone would ask this question, so he immediately answered: "My master's master once witnessed that gambling game with his own eyes, so he saw that the casual cultivator was able to block the flying flying swords within a hundred steps with his luck. The Shimen Sect Master's full blow, a hundred steps here is about fifty meters, which is considered the best attack distance of the Flying Stone Sect; and except for that weakness, this hard Qigong can be said to protect the whole body equally, so that scattered Xiu just stood there motionless, without even a change in his expression."

"It can be seen that this hard qigong that has no name yet requires at least Xuan-level martial arts, and it is said that the casual cultivator himself has not fully understood this martial arts, because he always feels that he still has some shortcomings, so the complete version of hard qigong You may have crossed the threshold of prefecture-level martial arts; but the most important thing is that this hard qigong is one of those martial arts that is easy to get started but difficult to advance to. This is good news for us players, because this It means that we can all learn this hard qigong, even if we are just getting started, it is equivalent to an extra layer of armor."

Liu Xing nodded, feeling that what Zhang Jingxu said made sense. Although logically speaking, this hard Qigong cannot be widely advertised because it would break the rules of the world, but he and his team are all players, and it can only last for a year at most. You will leave this module after that, so you can ignore some of the rules.

"So should we use the Fish Scale Album to exchange for this hard qigong? I think it can still be exchanged, because this hard qigong can comprehensively enhance the strength of our alliance. If we are lucky enough to have a few geniuses, then our alliance will also be considered powerful. I have a master who can do it. Although this master can only stand there passively and get beaten, it is better than not being beaten at all! And the reason why we took away this fish scale atlas at the beginning is because It’s just to make some money for the alliance, so there’s nothing wrong with taking action like this now.” Liu Xing said seriously.

At this time, Meng Fugui also nodded and followed up, "Yes, the current fish scale atlas is tasteless to us, because if there is no time, Guo Er might really compile a fish scale atlas. By then we The book in our hands is worthless, and may even become a hot potato. Unless Guo Er is prepared to make some small moves in the process, then the old version of the fish scale album in our hands will be even more valuable; so in At this time, exchanging the fish scale atlas for a martial arts book that everyone can access is indeed a good business, and it can also be effective immediately, giving all players an extra layer of protection."

"Then the question now is how to do this business. Although what Guo Er said is very nice, we have to be prepared that he will turn his back and refuse to admit it."

Zhang Jingxu sighed, shook his head and said: "This is what I am most worried about, because the solution Guo Er gave is to put the martial arts secret book on a dog, and then let the dog wander around the city wall. If the person holding the fish scale album is willing to do business, take the dog away, but you have to put the fish scale album nearby first, otherwise a stone will fly towards you from the wall; then the question is Well, what should you do if you put down the fish scale album and the flying rocks still come towards you? So we shouldn’t take such a risk, right?"

"That is indeed a bit risky. After all, if the people from Feishimen hit us at this distance, wouldn't it be a surefire hit? After all, we are just a group of ordinary people, and even if they don't take action immediately, they may be playing a long-term role. , catch big fish! So it’s not easy for us to evade the pursuit of the Fox Hunting Gate like Ge Jing did... Wait, we can let Ge Jing take action!"

Liu Xing's eyes lit up and he said: "Ge Jing was able to use two legs to avoid the people on horseback from the Hunting Fox Sect, which shows that his Qinggong is very good, so it is not difficult for him to get rid of Feishi Sect's possible pursuers. After all, The Feishimen side can be regarded as a passive defense, and they have to prioritize the safety of the fish scale album. As for Ge Jing, he should also agree with our idea. After all, he is living under someone else's roof now. It would be unreasonable if he doesn't help at all. Moreover, we can also use this opportunity to confuse the public and confuse the people from the Fox Hunting Sect and the Flying Stone Sect."

"Yes, after the Fox Hunting Sect learned that Ge Jing had stolen the fish scale album from Boyang City, and that he took the time to exchange the fish scale album for a martial arts secret book while being hunted by him, this would definitely make them doubt their life. And change the direction to pursue Ge Jing; as for Feishimen, after learning about Ge Jing's situation, they should doubt why Ge Jing took the fish scale album, but there is also a certain chance that they will doubt us, because we He also stayed in Boyang City during that time, and Ge Jing has some relationship with us. At the same time, when Ge Jing finally disappeared from the sight of the Fox Hunting Gate, he was not too far away from our Tianshui Town."

Meng Fugui suddenly smiled and said: "But if Feishimen realizes this and begins to suspect that we took the fish scale album, then Guo Er will most likely choose to let it go and no longer pursue who took the fish scale album. , because he would suspect that all this was the instructions of the third prince. After all, we went to Liangcheng afterwards. Logically speaking, we might have brought the fish scale album to see the third prince at that time."

"Yes, maybe Guo Er will think that the third prince wants to take action against Boyang City. After all, the existence of Boyang City is a thorn in the side of the third prince."

Liu Xing nodded and said: "But we still have to find a way to complete the exchange. For example, let Guo Er put the things in a designated place? In short, let's decide one thing first, that is, exchange the fish scale atlas for the martial arts secret book! How about that? ?”

Everyone present had no objection.

Then, Zhang Jingxu talked about another thing.

"At present, it is certain that the wealthy businessman does have a problem, but the problem is that his brother-in-law seems to be the one who really makes the decision! Because after my investigation during this period, I found that the wealthy businessman always brings his brother-in-law to attend, and there are When the wealthy businessman needs to make a decision, he will also look at his brother-in-law! For example, the wealthy businessman came to see the old master two days ago and wanted the old master to make a fortune for him. After all, the old master came from the Taoist sect. I also have some experience in fortune telling."

Zhang Jingxu said seriously: "At that time, I found a reason to follow the old boss, and I saw something was wrong with that brother-in-law's eyes. Because you also know that the eyes are the windows of the soul, so you can read a lot just by looking at it. Information! And in this martial arts module, the eyes of those with high martial arts skills are even more unique. For example, although my master is still a third-rate master, when he gets serious, his eyes can only be described as bright. As for the old leader, I really don’t dare to look him in the eyes because I feel panicked just thinking about doing that.”

"And this brother-in-law's eyes have been twitching from the beginning, and occasionally there will be a glimmer of light. In short, it does not fit his personality - he is just waiting to die, and he will only follow his brother-in-law to enjoy the good things and drink. ; So at that time, I felt that this brother-in-law was not simple. He might be preparing to pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger, or let the nominal brother-in-law block the knife for me; and in the subsequent process, I found that the wealthy businessman would occasionally take a look. His brother-in-law, this is obviously unusual, because if this brother-in-law just follows him to see the world, there is no need for him to care about him so much."

"The most important thing is that when the old boss asked us to leave first so that he could tell the fortune for the wealthy businessman one-on-one, the wealthy businessman glanced at his brother-in-law subconsciously. I could see that there was an inquiry in his eyes, and The brother-in-law blinked immediately, and the wealthy businessman slowly asked his brother-in-law and others to leave with me. When I took them out of the room and waited outside the door, the brother-in-law started to make innuendoes at me, as if he wanted to He seemed to be trying to win me over, and I had a lot of arrogance with him."
