【Finally, I wish you all a happy trip. 】
After a dizzy spell, Gu Yan opened his eyes and found himself at the foot of a mountain.
The system's voice came into his mind. For some reason, Gu Yan felt that the tone of the system's prompt was a little different this time. He kept a watchful eye in his heart and checked the personal belongings he was carrying.
He first glanced at the background story next to the task panel. The system assigned him the identity of a tourist who came to travel to the mountain in front of him.
"The mountain is always covered with mist. Some people say that this is a forest where gods live, but the nearby residents keep silent about this mountain and seem to be very taboo about it." Gu Yan read the background story with a frown. When he read the last sentence of the story, he changed his tone and said in a very puzzled tone: "But you don't believe in ghosts and gods. You heard that there are very rare trees growing on the mountain, so you plan to come up and try your luck?"
Tani Yan: ...Okay, from this point of view, there is definitely a ghost on the mountain, and maybe the tree he is looking for is standing on the pile of corpses.
He was carrying a backpack, but it wasn't heavy and didn't seem to contain anything. When I opened it, I saw some necessary things for the wild, and a Vietnamese plant illustration book, but nothing special.
The more frugal...Gu Yan sighed slightly, he was also a provincial person, but later his family moved to the north. Now when he sees this word, he still feels nostalgic.
"Tanihiko? You're here too?"
Taniyako looked back and saw that it was Miki who was dressed the same as him.
Gu Yan greeted him: "What a coincidence, what is your identity?"
"Tourist." Mi Ji glanced at Gu Yan's side: "Didn't you see Xiao Yu?"
"No, she must be around here. Didn't you see her when you came?" Gu Yan and Mi Ji thought that as expected, they were in the same copy. They had a hunch that all this was not a coincidence.
"I came up from behind and didn't see her." Mi Ji looked at the mountain road ahead: "She might be up there."
"Then let's go over there?" Gu Yan suggested.
"Ah."
The two walked up the mountain path, exchanging the background stories they had received.
"I think there's something wrong with this unit's story. Surviving for a month is a prerequisite. No matter how many missions we complete, we have to stay here for a month unless we die at night." But if we die, we're really dead, so they need to be careful not to die at night. Mi Ji analyzed: "And... this resurrection condition is also very strange. I've never heard of it."
"I guess it won't be a good night." Gu Yan said helplessly, stamping his feet: "Also, this dungeon reveals an indescribable weirdness everywhere. And this mountain, this mountain is not a tourist attraction, but the road under our feet looks like it is often walked on. Who are the people who climbed this mountain? What are they doing here? What secrets does this mountain have? We don't know these."
"Indeed..." Mi Ji thought silently, "And we don't have a tent in our backpacks. It's risky to sleep outdoors, but the map doesn't show any villages or towns near this mountain."
This also explains a problem. There is no place to live nearby, which means they have to sleep outdoors at night. Adding the fact that there is no resurrection if you die at night, Gu Yan feels that his future is hopeless.
This night is destined to be a tough one.
The two of them walked up with complaints in their hearts. After a long time, Gu Yan suddenly squatted on the ground.
"What's wrong? Did you find anything?" Mi Ji asked.
"There is blood on the ground." Gu Yan frowned and pointed to the ground. Mi Ji looked closely and found that the grass next to him had been crushed and there were some blood stains on it. The ground of the grass was also dark in color, and he could smell blood when he got closer.
Gu Yan touched the ground and said, "The bloodstains haven't dried yet. They don't look like the traces of an animal being hunted. Otherwise, there should be animal carcasses nearby."
Judging from the amount of blood on the ground, someone must have been injured, and the injury was serious.
"Do you want to go and take a look?" Mi Ji asked. Gu Yan thought for a while, nodded and said, "Let's go and take a look. Maybe we can find something."
If the injured person is a player, he will know the reason why the player was injured, so as to avoid the danger in the next copy.
The two men followed the bloodstains on the ground. The bloodstains were intermittent, and it was obvious that the injured person was struggling to move forward. This also meant that the person was not being chased by anything at the time and most likely escaped death.
Are there ghosts attacking people in the woods?
The two didn't know it, but they found that as they followed the blood trail, the surrounding trees gradually became sparse, and a few steps forward, a bluestone path suddenly appeared!
The bloodstains went up along the bluestone path, and the surrounding trees were gradually covered by green bamboos. There were small stone lanterns placed every few meters along the road. If you ignore the bloodstains on the ground, this would be a very artistic scene.
The bloodstains on the ground gradually became less and less, and disappeared in the end. The two walked forward for a while and found a bamboo pavilion in front of them, with a person lying inside.
"Xiao Yu?" Gu Yan had good eyesight and immediately recognized the figure that looked very much like Yu Lan. When he got closer, he found that it was indeed her.
At this time, Yu Lan was sleeping soundly on the stone table in the pavilion. It was only after Gu Yan called her twice that she opened her eyes in a daze.
Gu Yan was speechless. How could this person be so careless that he could fall asleep in a dungeon? No, didn't she say she didn't have a system? Maybe she didn't know there was something wrong with this mountain.
"Ha, good afternoon." Yu Lan yawned. Her face looked a little pale, probably because the temperature in the forest was low.
"Were you inside the pavilion as soon as you came in?" Gu Yan asked as he sat next to Yu Lan.
"No, I walked up here." Yu Lan felt very sleepy, and she supported her head with one hand, obviously still wanting to sleep: "I saw there was a pavilion here, and I was too tired so I thought of taking a nap here."
"You are really bold." Gu Yan said helplessly: "We followed the blood trail to get here. I'm afraid there are ghosts that can attack people. How dare you sleep here?"
“Blood stains?” Yu Lan scratched her hair in confusion. She was probably still asleep and her reaction was a little slow: “Oh, that, it’s okay.”
"It's nothing, you head." Gu Yan glared at Yu Lan. Although he knew that Yu Lan didn't have a system, he still asked: "Do you want us to tell you the story and tasks sent by the system? Mi Ji and I checked, our tasks are the same."
"Did you also survive for a month? And then there were side quests." Yu Lan asked: "If so, I think we are all the same."
Gu Yan and Mi Ji looked at each other and asked, "How did you know?"
"The system suddenly gave me a task, but I only have a task, no story or identity." In fact, there is no need to know, she is very familiar with this place, and because she is very familiar with it, she dares to sleep here.
Yu Lan stood up, stretched, and shouted toward the bamboo forest: "Zi'an!"
There was a slight noise in the bamboo forest. Not long after, a white-haired little man wearing a black cape similar to that of a mini version of Erwin flew towards Yu Lan from the bamboo forest. He stopped in front of Yu Lan and smiled sweetly at her: "Mom."
"Fuck." Hearing the villain calling Yu Lan, Gu Yan and Mi Ji were shocked: "When did you have another son?"
"You have seen him before." Yu Lan blinked and held Yu Zian in her arms: "He is the one who was sleeping in Erwin's arms before. Later, Hill made him smaller. Have you forgotten?"
Forgot? How could they have forgotten? But they were right beside Hill when he cast the spell.
What shocked them was why the boy called Yu Lan "Mom"!
"Well, it's a long story." Yu Lan brushed Yu Zi'an's messy hair with her fingers: "In short, this child is called Zi'an, Yu Zi'an."
The boy said he forgot his name, so Yu Lan decided to give him this name. A name is a blessing from elders to children, and Yu Lan had no other wishes, just hoping that the boy would be safe.
Boy, no, Yu Zian also likes this name.
His eye sockets were still empty. Yu Lan consulted him and tore off a piece of white cloth to tie it on his face, but this could not hide the boy's delicate features, and they even looked better.
"Okay, okay." Gu Yan swallowed and accepted the fact with difficulty.
"What's the good of that?" Yu Lan pointed at Gu Yan and Mi Ji expressionlessly: "Come here, Zi'an, this is your Uncle Gu and Uncle Mi. Uncle Mi also has a younger brother, and he is also my friend."
"Hello Uncle Gu, hello Uncle Mi." Yu Zian called out obediently, but the clear and melodious voice of a young boy made the two men who were called uncle feel very upset.
Seeing Gu Yan's face full of despair, Yu Lan smiled happily: "Okay, let's go up the mountain. We are not even halfway up the mountain yet."
"Okay." Gu Yan sighed: "Come to think of it, I was originally planning to find the injured person, but I only saw you."
"Hmm." Yu Lan responded vaguely: "I didn't see anyone else when I came up. Maybe I can see them halfway up the mountain."
"Xiao Yu seems to be very familiar with this place?" Mi Ji looked at Yu Lan, a hint of doubt rising in his heart.
"I have a map." Yu Lan was silent for a while, then took out a piece of paper from the player's backpack. On the paper was a simplified version of a map, and it was obvious that it was torn from Yu Lan's notebook.
Mi Ji opened his mouth but didn't say anything.
When Gu Yan saw Yu Lan take out the piece of paper out of thin air, he suddenly realized that Yu Lan was not carrying the same mountaineering bag as them. Could it be that her identity was different from theirs?
"No." Yu Lan's eyes widened in surprise. "No, it would be tiring to carry such a big backpack and climb the mountain. How can it fit into a player's backpack?"
It saves trouble if possible, and you don’t have to worry about losing it. Isn’t this killing two birds with one stone?
Gu Yan and Mi Ji were silent again, as if, it was indeed the case.
The two silently took off their backpacks and stuffed them into the player backpacks, and then set off. Apart from anything else, climbing the mountain was indeed much easier without the backpacks in the way, and the surrounding scenery was beautiful. If you didn't say anything, you would have thought they were here for an outing.
"Xiao Yu, you are a celestial master, can you see anything wrong here?" Gu Yan pointed to the sky: "I think there is nothing strange here."
"It's nothing strange." Yu Lan took out two popsicles from somewhere, gave one to Gu Yan and the others, and she and Yu Zian ate the remaining one. Yu Zian had never eaten a popsicle before, but he liked the cool feeling very much, and his feet dangling in the air swung happily.
Yu Lan said vaguely while holding a popsicle in her mouth: "The feng shui here is pretty good. Look, there are mountains and water, and the scenery is pleasant."
As she spoke, she took out the simplified map and said, "Beyond this mountain, there are several hot springs. That's why there's fog all year round. After all, the humidity is too heavy to dissipate."
Gu Yan curiously leaned over to take a look, but found that he couldn't understand the map. It was too simple: "Who drew this?"
"Zi'an drew it." Yu Lan said nonchalantly, "Zi'an took a walk around here while I was sleeping and drew everything he could see."
In fact, Yu Lan couldn't understand it either, but she was familiar with the place. The map was for Yu Zian to remember the way and also to fool others just in case. Now, she was using the map to fool Gu Yan.
Gu Yan looked at the dense wavy patterns on the map, thinking that they should represent hot springs, and nodded doubtfully: "Oh, so that's how it is..."
"What's so special about the middle of the mountain?" Mi Ji looked at the map. To be honest, he couldn't tell where the middle of the mountain was from here.
"It's halfway up the mountain...Is it heaven above and hell below?" Yu Lan said vaguely: "I'm not sure either, you will know when you see it."
Yu Lan pointed to a place not far away. Before she knew it, the road under her feet became wider, and it was obvious that someone had deliberately made it.
Not far ahead, a small building appeared on the roadside, with blue bricks, black tiles and glazed windows. If there hadn't been electrical appliances inside, Gu Yan would have thought he was playing an ancient laptop.
The three of them walked around to the front door of the small building and saw two large signs next to the black door. There were "Things to know before entering the mountain" written in very eye-catching red fonts. It was hard not to attract attention.
Gu Yan leaned over to take a look and read what was written on the sign.
——As the saying goes, it is easier to go up the mountain than to go down. I believe that all of you have made sufficient material and psychological preparations when you enter the mountain. There are supplies in the house. Remember to take the fireworks for help. Don't be too proud to use them. Otherwise, if you really die, it will not be our fault.
——Turn left to Wanguilin, and turn right to the dojo. Although I think it is unlikely that people who come to the dojo will go the wrong way, just in case, please go into the room and ask someone to take you to the dojo.
——Remember! Whether you are here to gain experience or have taken the wrong path, you must go into the house and explain the situation to others! If you die on the mountain, we will not be responsible!
——Tinglan said.
Gu Yan twitched his lips. Why did he feel that this notice...had a tone that sounded a little unclear, and seemed so familiar?
