Absurd deduction game

When he regained consciousness, Yu Xing found that he was sitting on the ground, and his butt was painfully hurt by a stone.

There was a lot of noise and noise all around, and the wind in the mountains was mixed with the smell of weeds and some animals. It was hard to tell whether it was refreshing or smoky.

He opened his eyes, and a cowhide kettle was thrown in front of him. The strong man who threw the kettle was dark-skinned, wearing coarse linen clothes, and his hair was hastily tied into a ball on his head. He greeted him: "Boss, drink some water! You'll be ready later." It’s time to eat, do you want us brothers to hunt two hares and pheasants?”

Several people dressed similarly swallowed their saliva.

...boss? Did you accidentally turn me into a bandit leader? Yu Xing's first reaction was to complain in his heart.

He nodded, and the few people greeted each other and walked into the forest. They linked arms and spoke without suppressing their voices. They were really no different from bandits.

"..." Yu Xing unscrewed the kettle and took a few sips, then looked up the environment calmly by raising his head.

He is in the mountains.

The environment here is very similar to Guolong Ridge, but the woods are denser and the ecology is more active. Several small insects are crawling next to the hand that supports his body, and one of them is trying to climb up along his fingers.

He was shaken mercilessly.

In addition to the few "bandits" just now, there are also several big men sitting on the ground to rest. They are all muscular and have big swords tied around their waists. There should be about ten people in the two parties combined.

Several horses stopped in front of a carriage carrying goods. A large flagpole two people high was tied with a rope to one side of the carriage. When the wind blew, the flag waved in the wind.

Yu Xing took a few more glances and determined that it was a line of traditional Chinese characters arranged vertically - Youlong Escort Agency.

Oh, it's an escort.

It seems that there is no need to kill friendly NPCs, which saves trouble.

"It's really difficult to cross Longling..." Several men frowned and complained, and Yu Xing looked away.

A narrow path that seemed to have been trampled by passers-by was filled to the brim by his "Youlong Escort" team.

As for him, he was also put on a rough cloth that looked like the uniform of the escort agency, with a pair of leather boots on his feet, one side of his waist was occupied by a broadsword, and the other was curled up with a dark riding crop.

The long black hair that reaches her waist is tied into a high ponytail and hangs neatly on the back of her head. Only a few strands of broken hair show freedom on her forehead.

Yu Xing confirmed his situation in just a few breaths - he was temporarily safe, he was a member of the escort agency, and he was transporting something with the team to a place that was about to be haunted.

【……】

The system may have just wanted to report the background of this copy to him, but it was caught off guard and choked.

[This deduction is a live broadcast. Due to the sudden triggering of the copy, there is no preparation time. The live broadcast room has been opened directly. The time of this deduction cannot be determined. There is a black box opportunity every day, and it lasts for five minutes. 】

The black box mechanism, a long-lost little black room, can actively block the live broadcast room for five minutes every day.

Yu Xing raised his eyebrows but said nothing, waiting for the next information from the system.

[You are a new escort who joined the Youlong Escort Agency not long ago, but you are highly appreciated by the chief escort for your skills. This time, you are directly appointed as the escort commander, and you are fully responsible for the escort mission to Fengtou Town. 】

[But this is just the surface. 】

[You have a surly and irritable personality, and you have tormented everyone who dissatisfied with you, but you are still in a bad mood, because along the way, you can feel more and more that what the head escort asked you to transport is not a good thing. , the other party gave you this death mission just to kill you on the road. 】

[Identity mission has been triggered: Find out what the transported goods are while alive. Time limit: before arriving at Fengtou Town. 】

[Note: This deduction requires players to follow the character's performance. If they are judged to be out of character, they will be punished. If they are judged to be seriously out of character, they will lose a life. 】

[Note: Deducers’ sacrifice slots, special physiques, special abilities, and props have been banned and will be unblocked when entering Fengtou Town. Deducers are advised to make good use of their roles. 】

Yu Xing screwed the lid on the kettle and laughed. The bodyguards who had been complaining just now fell silent. The monsters that were said to be able to stop children from crying at night were probably not that effective.

He saw the fear hidden under the faces of the escorts.

It's the fear of the role he plays.

He pretended to lean back and fall asleep, and began to focus on the information generously provided by the system.

Putting aside the role of character, what does it mean to "lose a life" if you are seriously out of character?

Does the Deducer have more than one life?

Also... it is not uncommon for abilities to be blocked. In many high-level deductions, due to the system's lack of control over the copy, the player needs to complete tasks to deepen the control of the system in order to unlock the abilities.

But this time it’s different. The mission is specifically stated, and the restrictions can be lifted once you reach Fengtou Town... Why?

I'm afraid there's another secret behind the ban that can be unearthed.

Yu Xing clenched his fist and tried to feel the power of this character.

His appearance was still his own, but the aura flowing in his body was not. He quickly learned through the strange synchronization that this character had good whip skills and wild sword skills, and was quite capable in a fight. He is lifeless and has high explosive power. Other than that, he is just an ordinary human being.

The system snorted and said in a very mean tone:

【Ordinary Humans~】

"..." Yu Xing's temples jumped.

Well, he is an unusual human being with blood evil energy that can suppress some ghosts.

As the old saying goes, ghosts are afraid of evil people. Judging from the evil spirit in his character, Bao Buqi is a lone star of evil.

The system placed a "What did I say" emoticon in his mind.

[The character design this time has nothing to do with me. The fact that you can use such a cruel shell is probably a natural choice? 】

Yu Xing: "Ha~ Probably, I'm more concerned about what you've been cheating on lately? You've also updated the emoticon module."

He has become more comfortable imitating human tone.

The system did not answer and used the topic change method.

[The main mission has been triggered: transport goods into Fengtou Town. Time limit: None. Failure penalty: stay forever. 】

[You have obtained a simple map of the northern part of Longling, a bottle of Mongolian sweat medicine, and a broken amulet that you picked up. The items have been put into the temporary backpack - the baggage on your back. 】

Yu Xing raised his arm slightly and felt the bundle tied diagonally to his body.

Tsk.

This copy is a bit old. Clothes were originally troublesome, but now they have a lot of burdensome baggage.

His unhappiness surfaced, making the team boy who was preparing to set up a pot for cooking tremble a little.

Fortunately, Yu Xing has just entered the dungeon and has not yet begun to explore many mechanisms. Overall, he is relatively calm and does not immediately harm the minds of the NPCs.

It was getting dark, and a few game hunters came back with a full load.

A group of escorts had a meal around the pot, and then continued their journey before it was completely dark.

Yu Xing pulled out the map. The destination, Fengtou Town, was marked with an eye-catching circle on the right side of the map. Calculating the distance, he still needed to walk a third of the map with his escort.

After some random chatting, he learned that it would take two days to travel one third of the map.

"Okay, if you don't see any deducers when you come in, you have to carry the ghost for two days." Yu Xing muttered, got on his horse, took off the whip from his waist, and led the team off. (End of chapter)
