Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2200 Selling Fish to Be Strong

"As for those who make the second choice, they are worried that there will be a stalemate later, so they choose to leave the city and live elsewhere. But among these people, there will definitely be people who have nowhere to go, such as Those who have no land outside the city, unless they plan to survive in the wild, can only find a way to stay in the homes of relatives and friends; but, if you want to stay in the homes of relatives and friends in normal times, you may just open your mouth. things, but the situation now is very different, because you may stay here for several months."

Shi Zixuan said: "If it were me, it is unlikely that I would receive any relatives and friends to live in my home at this time. Of course, relatives within the fifth server still have to help, so maybe at this time The NPCs who join us should all be immigrants who have no roots in the local area, or simply the kind of single-parent families... So how to put it, for us, these NPCs can only be described as tasteless and a pity to abandon, because Their joining will bring about zero improvement to the alliance, and they may even subsidize a certain amount of money."

Hearing what Shi Zixuan said, Liu Xing and others sighed, because they all knew that at this time, they could shamelessly join a strange convoy. Basically, they could be described as desperate, just like Junxiang's None of those NPCs would want to stay in Junxiang if they had the chance.

After all, the martial arts module is also set in ancient times, so the NPCs still have a strong sense of local sentiment. Therefore, if possible, no one wants to leave their hometown. You must know that if you want to start over in a strange place at this time, the price you need to pay is real. It is too big, and the probability of failure is not low.

Therefore, Liu Xing also feels that his team can attract some NPCs to join, but the benefits these NPCs can bring to the alliance are approximately zero, and the alliance even has to spend some money on these NPCs.

Just when Liu Xing was about to speak, a young man from Wangjia Village ran over.

“Liu Xiaowei, someone wants to defect to us!”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Xing and others were all surprised, because no one expected that someone would join the convoy at this time.

 Is this what you say and what you say?

“Leader, you have to be careful.”

Xu Bin, who came back to his senses, quickly said: "This man came to seek refuge with us after dark, so I have to suspect that this man may be a spy sent by a certain village to find out who we are! After all, our convoy looks quite similar from a distance, because Miao Fei at the front is riding a tall horse. You can tell at a glance that he is very powerful and is probably a martial arts master; as for the alliance leader, you This carriage looks quite luxurious. If I were a passerby, I would think that the owner of this carriage must be extraordinary, not to mention Qing Sheng’s carriage looks pretty good too."

"As for the villagers in Wangjia Village, although they are quite ordinary in terms of clothing, the problem is that every household can use oxcarts to transport things, which is extraordinary! You must know that in this martial arts module , many villages can only afford one or two cows, so even if all our fleet uses old cows, it will not be easy for outsiders to see. Therefore, if I were a spy from a certain village, after seeing such a When setting up a convoy, my first thought was that this convoy is not simple, it is probably a young man taking his tenant farmers to open up wasteland somewhere!"

On the day when the new Dragon Emperor ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor, he personally wrote an imperial edict. In short, the content is that after someone decides to separate the family, he can go to an unowned land to open up wasteland, as long as you can guarantee this land. If the land can produce relatively stable output within three years, then the land is considered yours.

Therefore, the children of some families feel that they have no future if they stay at home. The most they can do is to work as a shopkeeper in one of their own shops. Therefore, they want to give it a try and find some manpower and material resources from their families before setting off to open up wasteland. .

As for these children of common people who have aspirations, as long as they are capable families, they will basically provide support. Firstly, these children of common people only divide the family in name, but in fact they help the family manage new fields or pastures; secondly, There is a saying called Cunning Rabbit Three Cave. These branch families can become the main family when necessary to ensure the continuation of the family.

Of course, the most important thing is that this kind of investment is almost guaranteed to make a profit, because as long as there are no natural disasters or man-made disasters, or too many new lands are opened up with too much ambition and too little skill, then you want to ensure that these new lands will have stable profits within three years. It’s not hard to produce.

But having said that, in addition to some concubine children, there are also some legitimate children who will actively or passively separate the family after failing to compete for the position of head of the family, and then find a wasteland to live a leisurely life of "picking chrysanthemums under the east fence". I will never leave that one-third of an acre of land throughout my life.

Therefore, Liu Xing belatedly realized at this time that in the eyes of outsiders, today's motorcade was just an unlucky guy who was "invited" out of his family and was "escorted" by a martial arts master hired by the family to go to a certain place. A place to spend the rest of my life.

So the question is, will such a convoy be a little fat sheep in the eyes of those copycats?

of course!

The reason is very simple. In the final analysis, such a convoy has no cohesion. After all, the nominal leader of the convoy is actually a prisoner under house arrest. Therefore, such a convoy basically disperses as soon as it rushes. As long as it can entangle the convoy. Those martial arts masters inside, then all kinds of materials carried by this convoy will become their possessions.

More importantly, the main reason why some unlucky people reach this point is that their original head of the family doesn't want to do it himself, so he wants to let these unlucky people pass away decently through some unexpected circumstances, so that he doesn't have to bear the burden. Got some unnecessary infamy.

Therefore, in "Liu Peng's" memory, after the head of a family in Far West City died unexpectedly, several of his sons fought a **** battle for the position of the head of the family, and had to go out with the knife himself; however, Fortunately, they all maintained their last dignity and did not let their other brothers follow in their father's footsteps and make themselves alone.

 But after everything was settled, the new head of the family very "generously" paid the brothers a break-up allowance and asked them to go and establish a branch elsewhere. . . As a result, when these convoys were attacked by bandits and bandits, they could no longer be described as collapse, because the other people in his convoy just saw the bandits and bandits in the distance and dispersed in a hurry. The new owner of the family stayed where he was.

You must know that this is not the result of a discussion in advance, but a tacit rule formed over time that you understand and I understand. In short, I give you some money and things, and you help me solve some problems decently. question.

So Liu Xing now realized that this person might be a spy from a certain cottage, and mistook the convoy he was in for the convoy that "escorted" the head of the branch family. However, for the sake of safety, he sent a person to inquire about the news. After all, it was Not every new family leader wants to send away his brother who competes with him for the position of family leader, because in the martial arts module set in ancient times, NPCs still value bad virtues.

So what are the eight virtues?

 Xiao, brotherhood, loyalty, trust, etiquette, righteousness, integrity, shame.

 The word "Ti", which ranks second, can be summarized as brothers, friends and brothers.

So after losing his father and several brothers, the new head of the family quickly lost a lot of regular customers, and the family business was directly transformed into Gojo Satoru, no, it should be 2.5 Enlightenment. Therefore, these copycats will check in advance before taking action to ensure that they will not steal the chicken but lose the rice.

After thinking about this, Liu Xing nodded and said to Xu Bin: "A Bin, you and this brother go and bring over the man who came to defect to us. I want to personally determine who he is."

Xu Bin nodded and followed the young man to the back of the motorcade.

 “To be on the safe side, we’d better prepare weapons.”

Shi Zixuan said seriously: "There is a saying that to capture the thief first, capture the king, so if the person who comes to seek refuge with us has problems and still has some skills, then he may very well want to capture the alliance leader directly. Use this to blackmail our entire fleet! In this way, you can use your small gain to gain the most benefits at the minimum cost!"

 Hearing what Shi Zixuan said, Liu Xing and Schiller became nervous, because this possibility was not low.

"Let's do this. Alliance leader, just stay in the carriage and don't show your face. Come and talk to that person through the curtain. If this person really has a problem, then alliance leader, you can activate the mechanism in the carriage! As long as this person is not a second-rate expert. , I won’t be able to get in for a while.”

The mechanism Shi Zixuan mentioned is a standard setting for luxury carriages. To put it simply, as long as you press the mechanism, four iron plates will fall down, turning the carriage into a sealed space. This will not only resist arrows. attack, and can also block direct attacks from third-rate masters.

 “Okay then, I’ll do as you say.”

Liu Xing nodded and got back into the carriage. Schiller and Shi Zixuan stood on either side of the carriage to ensure that no one would rush onto the carriage to find Liu Xing without any hindrance. trouble.

Soon, Xu Bin led a person to the front of the carriage, and Liu Xing, who was sitting in the carriage, couldn't see the face of the person because of the curtain. He only felt that this person's physique seemed a bit strong. Compared with Xu Bin next to him grew stronger several times.

You must know that Xu Bin's physique is above the standard line, so the person next to him reminded Liu Xing of the standard idioms for military commanders in various romance novels - eight feet tall, with a strong back and a strong waist!

 Wait a minute, why does this person look familiar?

 In Liu Xing's memory, he had never seen many people with such a physique, so Liu Xing suddenly thought of an old acquaintance.

Just when Liu Xing was about to open the door curtain, Shi Zixuan opened it directly for Liu Xing. At this time, Shi Zixuan also looked shocked.

Seeing Shi Zixuan's expression, Liu Xing knew that most likely he had guessed it right. This person was really an old acquaintance of his.

Since then, Liu Xing took a deep breath and looked towards Xu Bin's side.

It's you!

Mai Yuqiang!

That's right, the man standing next to Xu Bin at this time can be said to look exactly like Mai Yuqiang. At least at this time, Liu Xing couldn't find any difference between him and Mai Yuqiang.

However, Liu Xing also knows that this person is most likely not Mai Yuqiang, unless Mai Yuqiang has completed the awakening like Alice, but this possibility is not high, because the biggest difference between Mai Yuqiang and Alice is , that is, Alice has been acting with Liu Xing and other players for a long time, so she has the opportunity to complete her awakening.

After all, when Liu Xing and others are making various judgments, Alice on the side will be more or less affected by these judgments. Therefore, under such influence, Alice may find that something is wrong with the world she is in. , thus awakening the original memory and knowing the existence of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall.

As for the NPC Mai Yuqiang, although he is very powerful and his strength can definitely be ranked among the top three among the NPCs Liu Xing has seen, he lives in Duwang Town most of the time and basically has no contact with him. Several players have been approached.

 So Liu Xing feels that the NPC in front of him is probably the prototype of Mai Yuqiang, so is this a model reuse in the Cthulhu Run Game Hall for convenience?

 “Liu Xiaowei, this is my friend Ma Yuqiang!”

Before Liu Xing could speak, Xu Bin said with a smile on his face: "Mai Yuqiang went to a nearby pier to make a living more than a year ago. There has been little business at this pier recently, so Mao Yuqiang wanted to come back to live. As a result, when he passed by our motorcade, he saw an acquaintance from Wangjiacun, so he chatted with the acquaintance for a few words, and then he was invited to join our motorcade."

 Is it better to sell fish?

Just when Liu Xing was about to say something, Xu Bin told everything about the fish gang.

First of all, the fish seller took Tang Seng's script and was put in a basin by his family and flowed down the river. Finally, he ran aground near the intersection of Fei City, so he was taken home by a kind person. However, The kind man soon discovered that the fish seller had a huge appetite and could eat more than ten of his peers put together!

But fortunately, this kind-hearted person was surrounded by kind-hearted people, so the fish seller lived a life of eating from hundreds of families. Therefore, he grew up without any danger and became a tall man. Eight feet tall, a super strong man who can eat a cow in one meal!

Of course, no matter how good the appetite of the fish seller is, he can't eat a cow, because he can't even afford a cow leg. So in order to be able to eat and drink enough, the fish seller simply lives by the river, every day. He has to eat hundreds of fish, and of course some of the good fish will be sold in the market.
