Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 2124 Supply Quest

   So this is the real test?

   Liu Xing thought that he had already become the subordinate of the third prince after arriving in Liangcheng for the first time, but he didn't expect that it was just a registration.

But when you think about it, although the third prince is relatively weak among the nine princes, he also has a lot of capable generals under him, so he wouldn't accept himself as a stranger in the first place, even if he drew it himself. The flatbread was ok.

"A Peng, you don't need to worry too much. This test is actually quite simple. After all, it takes only a few days to get from Feicheng to Tianshui Town. Because we also bought a lot of ox carts, the overall speed is quite good. , and this road is also a big road, so there is no need to worry too much about some short-sighted guys coming down the mountain to trouble us."

Yu Lei patted Liu Xing's shoulder, and then took out something like a fire clip from his arms, "This is a special smoke bomb, as long as you break it and throw it out, it will explode. Let out a puff of black smoke to remind the insiders around, let them know that there is someone here who needs help, but if you really do this, it means you have given up the test."

  Liu Xing took the smoke bomb and said with a smile: "Then I can throw it away now, because I still have the confidence to complete this test."

   Before Liu Xing finished speaking, a pigeon suddenly fell into Yu Lei's hands.

  Seeing this pigeon, Yu Lei's expression also became serious, but he didn't say much.

   Liu Xing knew that it was because of the presence of Yang Qi and Dong Yu, so Yu Lei couldn't say much, after all, both of them were outsiders.

  So Liu Xing winked at Yang Qi and Dong Yu, and Yang Qi, who was the first to react, said, "Well, we have to go back and pack our things now, so let's take a step first."

  Then, Yang Qi took Dong Yu and left first.

  After Yang Qi and Dong Yu left, Yu Lei said, "A Peng, is it because you persuaded that troupe to go to Liangcheng so quickly because these people are also related to the Eastern Palace Canglong?"

"That's right, they are all my brothers and sisters, so it didn't take me much effort to persuade them to go to Liangcheng. As for the Yang Qi who escorted me to Feicheng, he just saw Miao Fei facing you, brother." When you set your position low, you know you are not an ordinary person, so you want to get some benefits through me, and he has indeed got benefits now." Liu Xing said with a smile.

   "Because there are many people like him."

Yu Lei shook his head, pointed at the pigeon and said, "This pigeon is specially used by the third prince to communicate with me one-way. It doesn't carry any letter paper on its body, because it itself represents a message—as soon as possible." Go to Liangcheng! It seems that the third prince has returned from Luohuabao, and something happened, so let me go back to Liangcheng to meet him as soon as possible."

  Hearing what Yu Lei said, Liu Xing said without hesitation: "Brother Yu, are you going back to Liangcheng now? If so, I will explain the situation to Miao Fei for you."

   "No, don't be so anxious."

After Yu Lei released the pigeon, he shook his head and said, "As soon as possible here doesn't mean immediately, so I just need to arrive in Liangcheng within five days, because if the third prince is really in a hurry, then he will be in the pigeon's place." There is an iron ring on the foot of the pigeon, which means that I must return to Liangcheng within three days, and there are iron rings on both feet of the pigeon, which means that I can go back as fast as I can; so I figured that this pigeon should have been released by the Third Prince when he left Luohuabao, so as long as I arrive in Liangcheng within five days, there will be no problem."

Hearing what Yu Lei said, Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief again, because if Yu Lei leaves at this time, he will be in an embarrassing situation in Feicheng without relatives and no reason, and he will go on behalf of Yu Lei. Going to Miao Fei's banquet may be a little embarrassing. After all, Miao Fei held this banquet to entertain Yu Lei. As a result, Yu Lei, the master, did not come, and only one of his followers came. There will be a big gap in words.

Most importantly, Liu Xing felt that the main reason why Miao Fei agreed to Yu Lei to help **** him and others back to Tianshui Town was not that he really wanted to go to Far West City to buy something, because although Far West City is a freight hub, it is only It is equivalent to a department store in the real world. Although there are many types of goods in it, they are not rare goods, so unless you want to buy some bulky goods, there is no need to go to Far West City to buy things.

  So Liu Xing felt that Miao Fei was still trying to show his favor to Yu Lei, and took a small favor by the way, so that if he wanted to return to Liangcheng to develop in the future, he could gain a firm foothold through Yu Lei.

  So if Yu Lei leaves at this time, Liu Xing guesses that Miao Fei will probably find a reason to say that he has something to do, and then stop going to Tianshui Town with Liu Xing.

   "Let's go, we've been busy for a few days, and it's time to have a good meal."

Yu Lei sent another Hatch, shook his head and said: "I got up a little early today, and I was a little nervous when dealing with the poisonous liger, so I suddenly felt a little sleepy at the moment, so we went to bed after eating Rest in Miao Fei's restaurant for an afternoon, and then find a place to spend the night."

   Soon, the two of Liu Xing came to a two-story restaurant opened by Miao Fei.

  No way, the consumption power of Feicheng is not enough to make the restaurant into three floors.

   Moreover, the banquet prepared by Miao Fei is also relatively ordinary, basically some home-cooked dishes, but they are more delicately prepared.

   "Brother Yu, today's meal is a little more simple. I hope you can understand it. After all, these are the fresh ingredients you want to buy in a small place like Feicheng."

Miao Fei picked up the wine glass and said, "However, there are so many farmlands in Feicheng, so naturally some good wine can be produced, so brother Yu, if you have nothing to do in the afternoon, drink two more glasses, and go directly to my inn when you get drunk. Just sleep in the font size room, I have prepared everything for you.”

   "Then I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

  Yu Lei was not polite, he directly picked up his wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

  Of course, the wine that Miao Fei prepared for this banquet is the kind of rice wine that is very common in the real world, but it has been filtered to make the rice wine look clearer.

   It still tastes good to drink.

  Because he had to explore the river again in the afternoon, Liu Xing didn't drink too much. He just took a sip with Miao Fei when he toasted Yu Lei.

  So, this banquet is also a joy for both guests and hosts.

Because the inn opened by Miao Fei was right next to the restaurant, Yu Lei "flyed" from the restaurant into the inn directly, while Liu Xing went to find Dong Qing and the others after washing his face. He hired a follower named Miao Shen.

  Miao Shen is Miao Fei's nephew, a martial arts master who has just reached the third-rate level, and also a fishing enthusiast.

  Because he was worried about his safety, Liu Xing pretended to mention that he likes fishing unintentionally at the banquet, so he planned to go fishing in the nearby river along the river in the afternoon, so Miao Fei recommended his nephew to accompany him.

Of course, Miao Fei also took advantage of the opportunity to praise his nephew, who was young and promising, with good talent, but he didn't meet a famous teacher in Feicheng, so Yu Lei also reciprocated by asking Miao Shen to go to Liangcheng with him to find a suitable teacher. The teacher once again apprenticed to a teacher to learn art.

  Under normal circumstances, the major sects do not allow their disciples to turn to worship the masters of other sects after leaving the master, unless the master's reputation in the world is very high, and his martial arts are also very high.

   But, those less powerful little sects don't care about this, as long as you don't talk nonsense outside.

  So Miao Shen brought a full set of equipment, and at the same time invited several of his fellow apprentices to fish together.

  Therefore, Liu Xing took Dong Jie and Yang Qi, and then followed Miao Shen and others to the river mouth along the river.

Along the way, Liu Xing saw a few more fishing nets floating on the water, and Miao Shen mentioned that these fishing nets only appeared in the last two months, but more importantly, no one admitted that these fishing nets were It seemed a bit strange that he let go of it by himself, because it was nothing shameful.

Hearing this, Liu Xing began to suspect that these fishing nets were actually related to Han Yu. Maybe Han Yu had discovered the trace of the Han Yu crocodile, but he couldn't produce any definite evidence to prove its existence, so he had to figure out his own way, plan to Use these nets to catch or deter Hanyu crocodiles.

   Otherwise, Liu Xing couldn't think of anyone who would do this, and he still didn't admit that he did it.

However, Miao Shen also mentioned that he would often come here to fish with his friends, especially his brothers, because although his sect mainly focuses on boxing skills, it also values ​​eyesight very much, so he asked all his disciples to go fishing. When fishing, the float must be removed, and at the same time, the hand cannot hold the fishing rod all the time, so Miao Shen and others have to keep an eye on the fishing line all the time, to distinguish whether the slight shaking of the fishing line is due to a fish taking the bait, or wind and grass.

  As for the entrance examination of this sect, the most difficult test is to let the disciple catch a fish, but the weight and type of the fish are stipulated!

   This requires the disciples to be able to distinguish every time the fishing line shakes, what kind of fish is frantically testing the edge of the bait, and what kind of range the size of the fish is in.

It has to be said that after listening to Miao Shen's conditions for becoming a teacher, Liu Xing felt that he would never join this sect, because even a seasoned fisherman might not be able to meet such conditions, let alone this martial arts model. The fish situation in the group is also quite special, unlike a certain river or a certain lake in the real world, there are basically only a few types of fish in it.

  For example, when Liu Xing was fishing in Tianshui Town, he caught more than 20 kinds of fish every day, ranging from a few taels of small fish to giants weighing dozens of catties.

   So let Liu Xing tell what kind of fish it is and how heavy it is through the shaking of the fishing line. Basically, he can only close his eyes to open his eyes.

   But along the way, Liu Xing also paid attention to the situation in the river, but naturally found nothing, and Miao Shen also mentioned that he went fishing on this road every now and then, and he didn't encounter anything special.

   Except that there seem to be fewer snakes in the nearby grass.

  Because there are many farmlands near Feicheng, some rice grains will eventually fall into the soil, so many birds settle nearby. After all, there are sufficient food sources here.

   It turned out that these rice fields attracted a lot of birds, and these birds also attracted a lot of predators, such as snakes!

So according to Miao Shen, when he was walking this road before, he could encounter at least two-digit snakes, but now he can only encounter one or two. I don’t know if these snakes moved to the woods In fact, the number has really decreased.

  By the way, the most famous special dish in Feicheng is called dragon flying and phoenix dance, that is, a snake and a few flying birds are cleaned up and cooked in one pot.

   This is called the food chain.

   And when Liu Xing and others came to the river mouth, they did encounter a snake that was dizzy from heat. It seemed to be going to take a bath in the river, but was caught by Miao Shen.

   "If there is any special product in Feicheng, it is that the snake gall wine is very good, because there are all kinds of snakes around, and there is also a lot of food in Feicheng, so the snake gall wine brewed is also quite good."

   As soon as Miao Shen finished speaking, another paragraph suddenly appeared in Liu Xing's mind.

   "Congratulations to the player for triggering the supply task—snake gall wine! Currently, a certain NPC is buying snake gall wine at a high price. If the player can contact this NPC, he can get a lot of rewards."

   "Remarks: This NPC may appear anywhere, so please consider whether to accept this supply task at your discretion, because after accepting this supply task, if you fail to complete this task, you will not be able to accept other supply tasks."

  Supply tasks?

  Liu Xing has been in the game lobby of the Cthulhu Running Group for so many years, but he has never heard of any supply missions.

However, as the name suggests, this task is to supply a large amount of certain items to an NPC, so as to obtain corresponding rewards, which reminds Liu Xing of a common task in some martial arts online games, that is, players send certain items Give it to the NPC.

  So this kind of task is still very reasonable in this martial arts module.

   But, the problem is that the NPC who wants to buy snake bile wine is still unknown, so who knows if I have a chance to complete this task before the end of this martial arts module.

  So Liu Xing still chose to refuse this task, planning to talk about it after finding this NPC.

   After arriving at the mouth of the river, Liu Xing and Yang Qi took fishing rods and found a suitable place to start fishing. Miao Shen and the others consciously kept a certain distance from Liu Xing and the other three.

   "Although some things happened near the river, it is still impossible to confirm that these things are related to the Han Yu crocodile, and it seems that the Han Yu crocodile has never done anything to anyone."
