Chapter 97 Village No. 7

"It's troublesome!" Tang An's expression turned ugly. In the current situation, there may be tens of thousands of villages in World No. 7. After all, there are not only villages around Yuntie City, but also in other parts of the world.

Finding the target village among the tens of thousands of villages is no different from finding a needle in a haystack. It may be even more difficult, and there is no way to find it.

"What's the matter, brother?" Seeing Tang An's ugly face, the man asked a question. Tang An shook his head and didn't speak, thinking about what to do about this matter. At this moment, a person came by, obviously Tang An asked I know that person, come over to say hello.

"You mean Village No. 7?" the person who had just walked over heard the description and asked without thinking.

Tang An was taken aback.

Judging by the way this man looks, he seems to know something.

"It's village No. 007." Tang An corrected it, and the other party shook his head: "I don't know about No. 007, but I have heard of No. 7. I just went there a while ago. In fact, that is not the number, but the village from the map. From the outside, it looks like a number seven, so it is called the No. 7 village."

When Tang An heard this, the hairs all over his body stood on end.

He immediately read the map, zoomed in on all the villages around Yuntie City, and looked for them one by one. Sure enough, he saw a place marking the village. The terrain looked like a number 7.

For some reason, seeing this, Tang An was almost certain that this was the village the engineer was talking about.

Because when Tang An came to Yun Tiecheng, he once saw a symbol at the city gate, two circles side by side. After asking about it, he found out that it was the mark left by the ancient miners' gate when establishing Yun Tiecheng, so it has been used to this day.

Then, if Yuntiecheng represents '00', the surrounding No. 7 village can be marked with No. 007, because 00 represents the city and No. 7 represents the village.

What a coincidence.

If it's too much of a coincidence, it's true.

This is God's will in the dark, who would have thought that he would find this huge No. 7 world so quickly.Of course, after Tang An calmed down, he understood that it was too early to be happy now.

It is still unclear whether Village No. 7 is where the engineer said the 'Golden Finger' is hidden, and whether it is or not, Tang An must go and have a look.

He didn't want the slightest delay.

After thanking those two people, Tang An was ready to go, but when Tang An turned around, he suddenly saw a scarecrow standing not far away.

It's exactly the same as the scarecrow last night.

Tang An froze for a moment, then looked again, it was not surprising that the people around him seemed to be accustomed to such a scarecrow appearing in the city.

This made it difficult for Tang An to understand, so he immediately stopped the two of them to ask.

"Is this your first time in World No. 7?"

Tang An nodded.

The two people said: "Don't make a fuss, those are grass puppets made by Tianzun Daomen with Taoism. They won't do anything to people, but they can break evil and prevent demons. In short, as long as they are weird things, these grass puppets can restrain them. You don't have to worry at all, although the grass puppets look a bit scary, they are all friendly and good things."

When Tang An heard this, he was relieved, but at the same time, he thought of another thing.

There is a talisman in the scarecrow's body, don't others know about this?
After tentatively asking, the two of them were also taken aback: "Not many people know about this, how do you know?"

Tang An was embarrassed to answer, but the two of them were not stupid, so they immediately guessed: "Could it be that you dismantled the scarecrow and took away the talisman?"

Tang An neither admitted nor denied it.

"If that's the case, it's not a big deal. The Tianzun Daomen is an extremely noble existence in the No. 7 world. It won't be common sense because of these trivial things, but it's best not to do too much, otherwise if something happens, no one can save it. You." The two warned and then left.

Tang An had ghosts in his heart and didn't dare to stay longer, so he also left quickly.

It's just that Tang An didn't know that he just experienced a dangerous situation. The scarecrow he saw had been staring at Tang An from the beginning to the end, and waited for him to leave. The scarecrow made a human voice: "There is no evil spirit in this man. , it shouldn't be him."

After speaking, the scarecrow staggered and walked in other directions.

……

Tang An knew that as 'players', they had many unique advantages over people in the plot world, such as viewing the map.

Because there is a map system, he can intuitively view the obtained map, which is very detailed. Just like now, he wants to go to the place known as 'Village No. 7' and just follow the route on the map.

Village No. 7 was [-] miles away from Yuntie City. It had to pass through woodland and a river, but Tang An couldn't help it. The journey was difficult, but it took half a day to finally reach the place.

Compared with the noisy and noisy Yuntie City, this village is a little quieter.Facing each other from a distance, there are dozens of huts, chickens and ducks can be seen everywhere, occasionally a shepherd boy passes by, and the smoke from cooking is around the eaves.

A place of peace.

Tang An quite liked this feeling. After entering the village, Tang An didn't see any other 'players' here. Obviously, this kind of precaution is not a popular area, and no outsiders may have been here for a long time.

Naturally, Tang An, an outsider, attracted the attention of many villagers.

A few children played around Tang An, and a few dogs in the village also barked, barked a few times, and after being scolded by the children, they ran over wagging their tails.

After following for a while, I was called back by the adults of various families. Obviously, this simple village does not rule out outsiders, but it also has basic precautions.

Tang An was looking for someone.

a beggar.

In the log left by the engineer, this is written.

"The beggar in Village No. 7 of World No. 007, exchange for the key GB7101!"

Tang An recited this passage almost every day to prevent himself from forgetting, so that he could recite this sentence backwards.

In this sentence, it can be said that every word is a key word, and both are indispensable.

Now that World No. 7 has come in, Village No. 007 should also be found. The rest is to find the beggar and use the exchange key to get things.

Tang An began to look around, looking for beggars.

What does a beggar look like, ragged, skinny, with nothing to do, sitting on the ground, maybe there is a bowl on the ground in front of him.

This should be the most standard image of a beggar, but Tang An walked around this small village and did not meet anyone like him.

Tang An didn't believe in evil, so he searched again, but still couldn't find it.

"Strange!"

Tang An stopped.

The village is not big, and you can see the head at a glance. A road that runs through the village, after walking around twice, it is true that no beggars were found.

Is it really the wrong place?
Thinking about it carefully, this possibility is really small. Judging from the previous inference, the place mentioned in the engineer's log must be here.

Tang An planned to wait and see.

Since they are all here, if you can’t find them, just wait and see, and you can only wait and see.

Tang An's imagination is now wide open. Since it is a plot character arranged by the engineer, it must be unusual. He cannot sit here all the time. He may only appear at a specific time. Who knows.

The people in the village were very sensitive to outsiders. Tang An was afraid of causing trouble, so he did not stay in the village, but he did not leave either. He sat on the hillside of a mountain behind the village, condescendingly watching the scenery not far away with his extraordinary eyesight. Village.

If there are beggars, Tang An can see them at a glance.

Time passed slowly, Tang An sat from day to night, and from night to day.
