Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 2132 Wen Duan

  As Liu Xing saw from the outside, the Han Mansion is a big courtyard, not even as good as the Luo Mansion that Liu Xing visited in the Heshan module.

   It can be seen from this that the city of Fei is really a small place.

  However, although this Han Mansion is ordinary, the lotus pond in the middle is still eye-catching, because it is the time when the lotus blooms.

   "The lotus leaves are boundless blue in the sky, and the lotus flowers are red in the sun."

   Seeing this scene, Liu Xing couldn't help but want to chant a poem.

   Uh, it should be a sentence.

   "Good poem!"

  Han Yu, who was walking aside to greet Yu Lei, turned his head and said, "Little brother, did you compose the poem you just recited? Is it just this line or a complete poem?"

  Liu Xing was taken aback for a moment, and then wanted to be a Wenchaogong. After all, as a fan of online novels, before joining the Cthulhu Running Group game hall, Liu Xing actually fantasized about how to be a qualified Wenchaogong if he could travel to ancient times or parallel worlds, and finally came to the conclusion that he must have a thick skin.

  Now Liu Xing is also very thick-skinned, because in the game lobby of the Cthulhu Running Group, if the players are not thick-skinned, it is easy to reveal various flaws, so now Liu Xing can not only talk nonsense in a serious manner, but also lie without changing his face and heartbeat.

  So, in order to get in touch with Han Yu better, Liu Xing replied with a smile: "I also wrote this after seeing the lotus pond, and suddenly such a poem popped up in my heart. Therefore, Mr. Han, you, as the most talented poet in Feicheng, can recognize this poem of mine. I am also deeply honored."

  The main reason why Liu Xing dared to act as a copywriter with the cheek is that although the original author of this poem, Yang Wanli, has written several famous poems, he is not well-known in general, so he belongs to the type of "popular singers are not popular".

  So Liu Xing estimates that in this martial arts module, famous poets like Han Yu and Li Bai should appear, but non-famous poets like Yang Wanli may not be able to play, because if even Yang Wanli can appear, then the Cthulhu running game hall will have to prepare thousands of special models!

  If only the Tang Dynasty is counted, then the number of poets who can leave their names in history books has exceeded 2,000!

  The anonymous poets are not counted here.

   You must know that the Xinlong Empire only has more than a hundred cities, so it is impossible to arrange so many poet NPCs as easter eggs. After all, if there are too many easter eggs, it will overwhelm the host. At that time, this martial arts module might as well be renamed the poet module.

  As for why Liu Xing still remembers the poet Yang Wanli who only appeared in his childhood, it is because Liu Xing has a cousin named Yang Wanli, and the relationship between the two is not bad, so Liu Xing has some understanding of this poet with the same name as his cousin.

   It's just that Liu Xing didn't know at this time, when he became a copy of the above, the gears of fate began to spin!

   Just where Liu Xing couldn't see, a lotus flower suddenly appeared in a body of water, and its root system had already penetrated deep into the ground.

   "Where is there, although this poem of yours only has this sentence, it is better than my existing works!" Han Yu smiled and shook his head.

  As Han Yu said, although he has written several poems now, these poems are relatively ordinary, and there are no famous works.

  That's why Yang Qi and others thought that this Han Yu was just the same name and surname, not the Han Yu they knew.

  Of course, Yang Qi and the others also thought about being a copywriter to increase the distance with Han Yu, but in the end they all chose to give up, because they all felt that since Han Yu had already appeared, Li Bai and others should also appear in this martial arts module, so if they copied the wrong poem, the situation would be a bit embarrassing.

   What's more, Yang Qi and others are all locals of Feicheng, and although Han Yu is a foreigner, he has lived in Feicheng for more than ten years!

  So in a small place like Feicheng, other things may not be very good, but the human touch is quite strong, so even if you don’t know each other, you only need to ask one or two people to find out the general situation of each other.

  So your character card was an ordinary person who didn't know a few words a month ago, but now you can suddenly write an exquisite poem, that will indeed be suspected.

  However, Liu Xing did not have so many restrictions, so he dared to act as a public servant in front of Han Yu.

   Just when Liu Xing was about to speak, a sentence suddenly appeared in his mind, "Congratulations to the player for gaining the appreciation of the special NPC, and the favorability has reached the conditions to trigger the special task, so the player is requested to decide whether to accept this special task within five minutes."

   "Remarks: This special task has a very serious failure penalty, please consider carefully!"

ah?

  Liu Xing really didn't expect that this special task would have a serious failure penalty, which Liu Xing has never seen when triggering other tasks, and this special task will not have too much punishment, right?

  After all, the triggering method of this special mission is related to Han Yu’s favorability, which means that this special mission is related to Han Yu, and the plot should start soon after it is triggered, which means that the location of this special mission is Feicheng.

   Could it be related to that big crocodile?

   But, no matter how powerful this giant crocodile is, it probably hasn’t reached the level of a monster. So now that Yu Lei and Xia Fei are in charge, and with the support of Miao Fei and others, it’s unlikely that there will be problems dealing with such a giant crocodile, right?

   Could it be that Han Yu is going to use himself as a bait to attract the attention of that big crocodile?

  That's unlikely, right?

  Suddenly, Liu Xing also began to hesitate whether to accept this task.

  Because judging from the description of the task, if I fail, it is very likely that I will tear the card?

  Do you want to take a risk?

  In the past, Liu Xing would still choose to take a gamble, because although this special task is said to have serious punishment, but this time the martial arts module does not have the penalty of tearing cards, so in general it means no punishment!

   The big deal is to leave this martial arts module early.

   But, the problem is that Liu Xing is no longer alone. Hundreds of players in the entire alliance rely on themselves to earn achievement points, so if they tear up their cards at this time, the development of the entire alliance will be greatly affected, and even fall apart!

   So forget it?

   Just when Liu Xing was about to reject this extremely risky special task, Yu Lei who was on the side suddenly said: "A Peng, I didn't expect you to be able to write poems. Then you have to write a love poem for me later. It's up to you whether I can get married this year."

  Liu Xing nodded subconsciously, and said with a smile: "No problem, I will definitely prepare a perfect love poem for Brother Yu..."

  Before Liu Xing finished speaking, another sentence appeared in his mind, "The player chooses to accept the mission—Han Yu's Awakening!"

ah? Does this count as accepting a mission?

  Liu Xing didn't expect that he was just responding to Yu Lei's question, and in the end, he was interpreted by the Cthulhu running team game hall as accepting the task. Isn't this a bit too messy?

   But the matter has come to this point, Liu Xing can only check the specific situation of this special task.

  "Han Yu's Awakening: Special NPCs have the power to be sealed, so if you want to lift this special seal, you need the assistance of players!"

   "Players, please be prepared. This special mission will be officially triggered after dark tomorrow, and what players need to do is to protect Han Yu and let him survive until midnight on the third day."

   "Remarks: Players need to ensure that Han Yu's HP is as healthy as possible, so that the possibility of Han Yu's awakening will become higher."

   A classic conservation mission.

   Judging from the character introduction, what Liu Xing needs to do is to protect Han Yu until midnight the day after tomorrow. Of course, the actual task time may only be about four hours, because it is already dark at 8:00 p.m.

   At the same time, the probability of Han Yu's awakening is related to his blood volume, which requires Liu Xing to protect Han Yu as much as possible, at least to ensure that he can complete the task fully.

   It seems that we still have to face the big crocodile.

   "A Peng, what's wrong with you? Isn't it difficult to write Lao Yu's love poems?"

  Xia Fei said with a smile: "You may not know that Yu Lei and the eldest lady of the Ge family have known each other for many years, but they lacked an opportunity to get married. Because this eldest lady is a typical lady of the family, she hopes that Lao Yu is not the kind of simple martial artist. She also needs to know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, so she asked Lao Yu to write her a qualified love poem. In the end, Lao Yu himself wrote a few poems because he was too poor..."

  Before Xia Fei finished speaking, Yu Lei who was next to him covered his mouth from embarrassment.

   I didn't expect Yu Lei to have such a short story.

  However, this is a difficult task for Yu Lei who suffers from dyslexia. After all, it is very difficult for him to read and write, let alone write a good poem.

  If it weren't for Yu Lei's good brother Xia Fei's description of the Ge family lady, Liu Xing began to suspect that the Ge family lady was looking for a reason to reject Yu Lei.

  Liu Xing calmed down, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, then I will definitely not let you down, Brother Yu! After we return to the inn later, Brother Yu, please tell me about yourself and Miss Ge's situation, so that I can write a poem that suits your situation, lest it be seen that you have hired a ghostwriter."

  As a man who has been a representative of Chinese classes since he was a child, Liu Xing thinks that he has quite a reserve of love poems, and Liu Xing is not worried about any problems with the love poems he prepared for Yu Lei!

   That's right, Liu Xing is going to give Yu Lei a modern poem!

  Liu Xing believes that the young lady of the Ge family should know about Yu Lei's situation, so if Yu Lei comes up with a serious and high-quality ancient poem, it will definitely arouse the suspicion of the young lady of the Ge family. Therefore, at this time, a modern poem is most suitable for Lei.

  Although the formats of modern poems and ancient poems are somewhat different, the emotions contained in them are common, and modern poems are more like what Yu Lei can write.

  The most important thing is that Liu Xing guessed that Miss Ge's family didn't really want Yu Lei to write an excellent love poem for herself, because she also knew that if she wanted to complete this task in Yu Lei's situation, she might wait until she was old.

  So Liu Xing used the experience he had gained from his relationship with Tian Qing. This young lady of the Ge family wanted Yu Lei to write a love poem for herself with true feelings, even if this love poem was **** and nonsense in the eyes of others.

  It seems that although Yu Lei and Xia Fei are first-class martial arts masters, they are still not as good as ordinary people like themselves in terms of emotions.

  Thinking of this, Liu Xing said confidently: "Brother Yu, don't worry, I've already thought about what to do! So let's not keep Prefect Han waiting."

   "Don't worry, if there are no accidents, my father should still be processing the paperwork, because a lot of orders have been sent from Liangcheng in the past two days, so it will take some time to process."

  Han Yu said with a smile: "So please follow me to the living room and sit for a while. I have ordered my servants to prepare some special snacks of Feicheng. I believe you will like them."

  After coming to the living room of Han Mansion, Liu Xing saw many paintings and calligraphy works on the surrounding walls, but none of these paintings and calligraphy works were signed by Han Yu.

  It seems that these calligraphy and paintings are all made by Han Taishou.

  However, as a man without much artistic talent, Liu Xing can still see that the level of these calligraphy and paintings is quite high, at least much better than the so-called "masterpieces" he has seen in the real world.

  Of course, Liu Xing also knows that some masters in the calligraphy world work hard for fame, and their normal works are quite good.

   "My father usually only has one hobby, which is to study calligraphy and landscape painting. Unfortunately, my talent in this area is really limited. Up to now, I haven't had a single work that can hang in this living room."

  Han Yu shook his head, sighed and said: "I don't know why, I have some talents in all aspects, but these talents are a little better than ordinary people, that is, what we often say is more than what is above, and more than what is below; but I always have a feeling that I should be more than that! This sounds a bit ridiculous, but I really have such a feeling, and I have also been dreaming in the past two days. I admire it!"

  The story begins!

  Liu Xing immediately regained his spirits, and said, "I am born to be useful! Brother Han, you should believe in your own feelings, because only you know yourself best, and now you are only a step away from jumping over the dragon's gate like a carp!"
