Real Cthulhu Running Game
Chapter 2025 The former prince
The leading player paused before continuing: "If that Ge Dazhuang didn't lie, the original owner of this treasure box, the shopkeeper, was his fifth grandfather, and the shopkeeper's eldest son was his uncle, so that year His uncle was quite nice to him, and would bring him some candies and snacks every time he returned to Niujiatun. The reason why Ge Dazhuang knew where his fifth grandfather hid the treasure box was because during a Spring Festival more than 20 years ago, , his uncle got drunk and mentioned the matter accidentally."
"But Ge Dazhuang is pretty tight-lipped. We have tried several times to get information from him, but he stopped talking at the critical moment every time, so we can only honestly improve our favorability. ; But in the process, we seem to have had an unexpected gain, that is, the treasure box mentioned by Ge Dazhuang is actually not simple. It can be regarded as a treasure in itself, because there are some special patterns carved on the treasure box. It is said that these patterns may It’s related to the former prince, maybe it’s a treasure map!”
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, because the treasure map mentioned by this player can be regarded as a legend that has been circulated for decades. After all, the new Dragon Emperor did not clean it up when it came to an end, so the former prince was left behind. Such a "scourge", and the former prince also spent a lot of money to do a lot of things before disappearing, and also took away many rare treasures in the palace.
Therefore, although there was no news about the former prince decades ago, there are endless legends about him. For example, he is now the head of a certain sect, or he is hiding in a forbidden area of a certain sect. What's more, it was mentioned that the prince of the previous dynasty had been reincarnated through a secret method and became a grandson of the new Dragon Emperor.
However, among these rumors, the ones that attracted the most attention were related to the rare treasures taken away by the former prince, so many treasure maps appeared incidentally, and some of these treasure maps were genuine. The Eight Classics are drawn on paper. Of course, vellum is also paper, so parchment is also paper. Some treasure maps have become murals on the walls, or patterns on certain utensils. Some people even think that the street structure in a certain city is A treasure map, because the former prince was involved in the construction of that city.
Yes, this city is Far West City!
Although the construction of Far West City was started after the former prince took the title of "Former Dynasty", the structural diagram of Far West City was actually left by the former prince, because the former prince originally planned to regard Far West City as his own A palace to facilitate his journey south to Mount Gun for the Zen ceremony.
Gunshan is the land of Longxing in the previous dynasty. Therefore, after the prince of the former dynasty officially became the prince, he would go to Gunshan for the Zen Ceremony on behalf of his father every year. However, the time of the Zen Ceremony is not fixed and may occur. Error of nearly one month.
To put it simply, the Conferment Ceremony of Mount Gun must meet one condition, which is to wait until the maple leaves on Mount Gun start to change color. The first day after they completely turn red is the time for the Consecration Ceremony, and this process takes about two days. It was about 30 days, so Far West City was only a day's drive from Gun Mountain. That's why the former prince wanted to build a palace in Far West City so that he could have a place to kill time while waiting for the ceremony of conferring Zen.
As for Gun Mountain, although there is a closer city - Gun City, as the place of Zhenlongxing and the hometown of the former prince, there have been no new buildings for hundreds of years. In short, it is Three words are highlighted - original ecology, and even if a house collapses due to disrepair, the newly built house must be restored one to one. Therefore, the former prince did not dare to build a palace in Gun City.
So after making up his mind, the former prince personally drew a sketch of Far West City, and then handed it over to professionals for polishing. At the same time, he also sent some things in advance to prepare to participate in the construction process of Far West City. Among them are some bottles, cans, boxes and so on.
The result can be imagined. As soon as the former prince arrived at Boyang City, the new Dragon Emperor had already started to raise troops in his Longxing land. Therefore, the former prince had to put aside his city building plan, and the new dragon emperor he brought in advance Those things also began to disappear after the new Dragon Emperor became the Ninth Five Lords.
Therefore, in Far West City, there are actually many rumors about the former prince. However, as decades passed, these rumors were constantly confirmed to be rumors. Therefore, in the past few years, basically No one mentioned these rumors anymore.
But again, these so-called "rumors" may be just rumors to NPCs, but in the ears of players, they are almost the same.
"It seems like this is still a series of tasks."
Yin En said as he walked: "The scrap iron swords and tokens we found in Sweetwater Town are actually related to the shadow guards of the former prince, so it is really possible that the treasure box is the box used by the former prince, because that year When the former prince was preparing to build Far West City, he came to Boyang City with big and small bags. He wanted to witness his ideas from drawings to reality, so he must have brought a lot of boxes."
"But even if these boxes were brought by the former prince, there's no guarantee that these boxes are special, right? After all, the former prince never came back after leaving Boyang City, so he couldn't have the foresight to bring them in advance. Are you ready for a treasure map?" Liu Xing shook his head and said.
As soon as Liu Xing finished speaking, he saw the football field not far away.
Of course, although this place is called a football field, it is actually an open space after weeding, and a wooden gate with a fishing net was erected on both sides, which looks pretty decent.
Because it was summer, everyone wore relatively cool clothes, so in order to avoid injuries, after leveling the site, large stones were deliberately removed, and then a layer of turf dug from unknown sources was laid.
At this time, there were already many people running around on the football field, having a great time.
Then, Liu Xing recognized Ge Dazhuang at a glance, because this NPC lived up to his name. He was indeed strong and unstoppable on the court.
"Leader, if we want to organize Xiang Yongde in the future, then Ge Dazhuang is worthy of our training, because he is also a good candidate to be a captain. This is what Yu Lei and the others said." Yin En said with a smile.
Liu Xing nodded in agreement, because this Ge Dazhuang does seem to be much better than other NPCs, so he is a talent worth cultivating.
But having said that, Liu Xing only remembered a question at this time, that is, Niujiatun is not far from Tianshui Town, so why did Ge Dazhuang come to settle in Tianshui Town?
When Liu Xing raised this question, Yin En was the first to explain: "When the shopkeeper was still there, their family must have had a good reputation in Niujiatun. After all, as a shopkeeper of a business, his annual income was It couldn't be lowered, not to mention that there were some other benefits. As a result, after the Dongchuang incident, the family's life naturally plummeted! Although the business firm did not deal harshly with other members of the shopkeeper's family in the end, they still had to take away all the valuables in the family. Let’s go, except for the few acres of thin farmland at home, this family will soon be separated.”
"Some time ago, Ge Dazhuang's father was also drunk, and then he set fire to other people's homes, so everything in the house had to be paid for other people's debts. Therefore, Ge Dazhuang's family heard that we were here. After recruiting people, they moved here directly; but having said that, Niujiatun is also a good place, because the land there is quite fertile, and wasn’t there a fire tiger passing by many years ago? So it has been there for many years. There are no more weeds or bugs.”
Is there such an operation?
Looking at Liu Xing who was a little surprised, Yin En said with a smile: "The existence of monsters can make ordinary animals afraid to approach, and the existence here includes the breath and taste of monsters, and of course the flames on the fire tiger. This It can be regarded as a kind of magic mark; so when the fire tiger passes by, those weeds cannot be burned by wildfire, because the flames on the fire tiger can be described as tarsal maggots, so these weeds are in After touching it, it was burned to pieces.”
"Oh? So Huo Hu can be considered a little expert in farming."
Liu Xing shook his head, looked at Ge Dazhuang and said: "So we also need to go through the plot line of Ge Dazhuang. Maybe it can trigger the mission of returning to Niujiatun."
Just when Liu Xing and others were preparing to play for a while, they saw Huo Zijun and others coming back.
Liu Xing naturally stepped forward to greet him.
"Leader, we have almost completed the investigation in Tieshan Village."
Huo Zijun took a sip of water and said with some sigh: "It's similar to our previous guesses. After the mines in Tieshan Village dried up, a mysterious man hid in the mines because he was hunted down by a group of people called wild wolves; After this man hid in the mine, he was trapped in it due to a tunnel collapse soon after. He survived for a while and then died. However, due to thunderstorms during this period, his voice was recorded on a tape, and the so-called The strange sound is actually because this person has gone crazy and started talking nonsense."
As expected.
Liu Xing nodded and asked, "Are there any other gains? Or since you know his situation, you should have opened up the way in, right?"
"Actually, there is a tunnel that leads to the area where the mysterious man is. However, this tunnel was boarded up, so it seemed to be blocked after the landslide. But with a little effort, this road can be opened. ; After we entered, we recovered this mysterious man’s notebook, as well as some of his belongings, such as a large ring-headed knife that looked pretty good, and a special pendant, and according to the notebook, this pendant It may be related to the former prince."
The former prince again?
"Of course, this pendant is said to be related to the former prince, but in fact it is just a good quality pendant. It is possible that the former prince left it in a hurry when he stayed in Boyang City. In his opinion, such a pendant may be just an ordinary pendant. In short, this pendant is not a prop, and it does not trigger any new tasks."
Huo Zijun took out a pendant from his pocket and handed it to Liu Xing, "But the style of this pendant is indeed a bit strange. In short, it is not an ordinary style, so this mysterious person values it so much, and those so-called wolves are also very special." Maybe he came here for this pendant."
Liu Xing picked up the pendant and took a look at it, and found that its style was indeed quite special. It turned out to be in the shape of a tiger's head.
Yin En, who was standing aside, saw the pendant clearly and said, "If I remember correctly, the former prince seems to be born in the year of tiger, so many things related to him will have tiger patterns, such as The armor he wore when he went to the battlefield was a tiger helmet and a tiger visor, and there was also a running tiger on the arrow, which meant that it was like adding wings to a tiger."
"Then this pendant should be kept well. It might be useful in the future."
Liu Xing returned the pendant to Huo Zijun and said, "Then let Deputy Leader Meng put this pendant away. Teacher Huo, you have worked hard these days. Take a good rest for two days after you go back."
"I also want to rest, but the problem is that there is a lot of encrypted information in this notebook, so I have to find someone to decipher the information later, because ordinary people will not write any encrypted information in their notebooks; and According to the notes in the first half, this mysterious man set out from Yingshan City thousands of miles away and was chased here by the pack of wolves, so I feel that this plot line will not end so easily, and the identity of this mysterious man is also unknown. It's not simple, so we may have to wait until the information is decrypted before we can trigger a new mission." Huo Zijun said seriously.
Hearing what Huo Zijun said, Liu Xing's expression became serious, "Then if you have any news, please inform me as soon as possible. If you need any help, you can also ask me for help. I will try my best to help you decipher the identity of this mysterious person."
After bidding farewell to Huo Zijun, Yin En said: "It seems that not only the nine sons of the new Dragon Emperor, but also the long-missing prince of the former dynasty are planning to come forward and do something about it, and we seem to have a lot of questions about it here. The plot line of the former prince, so we need to strengthen the defense of Sweetwater Town to avoid being caught off guard."
"It seems it's time for us to put the Xiangyong Plan on the agenda. Anyway, there isn't much to do during this period." Liu Xing nodded.
