Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 868 High Risk, High Reward

But then again, as a lover of some historical novels, especially Three Kingdoms novels, Liu Xing still knows that the "Taiping Yaoshu" that Zhang Jiao got from Nanhua Laoxian in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is not the real one. The "Taiping Yaoshu", which is also the "Taiping Jing" in the Taoist classics.

   So what is the prototype of Zhang Jiao's "Taiping Yaoshu"?

  Zhuangzi's "South China Classic".

   So there are many players in the Cthulhu running group game hall who think that Zhuangzi is also one of the vests of the King of Yellow Clothes.

   Of course, in the eyes of those players, all the historical figures related to the yellow characters in the history of China and Xia are the vests of the king of yellow clothes, such as the Yellow Emperor or something. . .

"If you don't have any other opinions, then I'll buy the treasure from the mad believer's mouth later? Although this is not necessarily the "Taiping Yaoshu" in Zhang Jiao's hands, but even if you buy the original copy It's also a big profit for us, because I heard that the original version of "Taiping Yaoshu" seems to have been lost." Zhang Jingxu said.

   Liu Xing and others nodded and agreed with Zhang Jingxu's purchase plan.

Therefore, Zhang Jingxu brought enough work points to go out again, but this time Zhang Jingxu also brought King Kong and Luohan to be on the safe side. After all, Heishishan Prison only prohibits fights between prisoners, so from time to time, mad believers will use this to play Black eats black.

  You can't hit me anyway, it doesn't matter if you scold me.

   Therefore, Zhang Jingxu must be prepared. If the other party intends to blackmail him, let King Kong and Luohan "invite" him back as a guest.

After Zhang Jingxu and the others left, Yin En said with a smile, "Actually, I'm still looking forward to this "Taiping Yaoshu", because "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" blows up this "Taiping Yaoshu" like a god. , Calling the wind and calling the rain is an amazing spell, it would be great if we could also learn it."

   In the real-world Cthulhu running game, players can learn spells unconditionally in many cases, just need to get the magic book and learn enough time to use the spell.

However, in the game hall of the Cthulhu running group, it may be to improve the professionalism of magicians, so it has increased the difficulty of players wanting to learn spells, making it almost impossible for players who do not have a profession of magic to become self-taught. Professional players also need to spend more time and energy to learn spells.

   This is also the reason why Liu Xing and others did not follow Zhang Jingxu to learn spells, because it was too troublesome, and they could use fireball to light cigarettes in a short period of time. . .

"Wake up, it's still daytime." Zhang Wenbing said, "I used to have the opportunity to learn spells, and I'm also interested in learning spells, but unfortunately I was expelled from the teacher's door within two days of going to apprenticeship, because I really No talent for learning spells."

"Me too." Peng Lizhen said with a deep feeling: "My father is also a well-known fortune teller in the local area. He can predict that I will have a **** disaster a week in advance, or help others to count him. Where is the missing son now, unfortunately I really can't learn his craft, otherwise I can predict now that there are those crazy believers in the T zone who are suitable for us to start."

   Liu Xing raised his brows and looked at Peng Lizheng with a surprised look. He didn't expect his father to be a fortune teller.

   You must know that this is a famous hidden occupation in the game hall of the Cthulhu running group, because the exclusive skill of this occupation-fortune-telling is so powerful that it can be directly renamed to predict the future.

   This is much more reliable than Yoon En's other character card - Ishikawa Ling's mysterious prophecy.

But I don't know if the Cthulhu Running Group game hall also read some novels when designing the profession of fortune teller, so the Cthulhu Running Group game hall added an exclusive debuff to the profession of fortune teller - three Five disadvantages: Every time you use a fortune-telling skill, you will permanently lose a certain attribute value regardless of whether it is successful or not.

Therefore, in Liu Xing's impression, there are only a handful of players who are professional fortune tellers in the game hall of the Cthulhu Running Group, and they belong to world-class cherished and protected animals - as long as it is not a last resort, other players will try their best to protect their safety. .

  Unfortunately, as Peng Lizheng said, players need talent very much if they want to change jobs to fortune tellers. . . To put it bluntly, only real Ouhuang players have the chance to successfully transfer careers, because it requires five consecutive successes.

   "Then it's really a pity for you. I heard that some powerful fortune-tellers can really see through the mystery and change their lives." Ding Kun said enviously.

"Yes..."

   Peng Lizhen just spoke when a strange voice suddenly sounded at the door, "Excuse me, will you all leave Heishishan Prison in two days?"

   Liu Xing turned his head to look and found that it was the old man with glasses who had worked with him who was talking at the door.

  The old man continued: "I have heard about the amnesty order, so I want to ask if you are within the scope of the amnesty. If so, I hope you will do me a favor after leaving Blackrock Mountain Prison."

At this moment, the kp snail said: "Congratulations to all players for triggering a new side quest - a notice of missing persons, players can choose whether to accept this side quest, but here I give you a friendly reminder - this side quest It belongs to the type of high-risk and high-reward type, and the side quest is completed within half a month. If it times out, the side quest will automatically fail, and the penalty for failure will be that the side quests you complete afterward will only work for you. Provides two-thirds of the contribution revenue.”

   After listening to the words of the kp snail, Liu Xing and others couldn't help but look at each other, because this side quest looked difficult, and if it failed, it would be severely punished.

If each side quest only has two-thirds of the income, then Liu Xing and others will directly withdraw from the front of the leaderboard. After all, the rewards you get after completing three side quests can be completed with players of the same level. Rewards are flat.

   And this side quest is a quest that is limited to half a month to complete. . . Although it is said to be half a month, it still takes three days to stay in Black Rock Mountain and two days to return to Osaka to rest, so the time that can really be used for this side mission is only ten days.

  The most important thing is that this side quest may need to go to the territory of the public faction to complete. If this is the case, then the difficulty of this side quest will increase by a notch.

   So Liu Xing felt that for the sake of safety, it would be better for him to refuse this side quest, even though this side quest might bring him rich rewards.

But before Liu Xing could speak, Yin En said first: "Yes, we will leave Heishishan Prison in two days, so sir, tell us what you need us to do first, and we will be happy if it is convenient. I'll help you, but if it's inconvenient, we can't help you."

The old man outside the door nodded, walked in and said, "No problem, what I need your help is actually very simple, that is to find someone for me after leaving Black Rock Mountain Prison, and then tell him something - time is up. ."

  Yin En raised his brows and said half-truth: "Master, this sentence you asked us to bring is a bit interesting, will that person silence us after hearing it?"

   Liu Xing and others nodded very cooperatively.

The old man shook his head and said seriously: "You guys are thinking too much, the person I want you to look for is actually my unmasked grandson... Back then I abandoned my wife and daughter to join a secret church. , I completely cut off contact with them. After I finally became the leader of the secret church, I wanted to reunite with them. It turned out that my wife died of illness shortly after I left, and my daughter was also getting married. After giving birth to a child, he died in a car accident, so this is the only grandson left with my blood relationship."

"But just when I wanted to meet my grandson, something happened, which caused the secret church I was in to be on the verge of collapse, so I secretly sent some money and a key to my grandson, that one. The key corresponds to a safe stored in a certain bank, but the safe needs a password to be opened, and the password is hidden in the words I just said, as long as my grandson doesn't throw away the password book I gave him, He should be able to take out the contents of that safe."

   "Oh, there should be a trump card in that safe that can make you make a comeback, old man?" Yin En guessed.

The old man sighed, nodded and said, "Yes, I thought I would only be detained in an ordinary prison, and I would be able to go out after more than ten or twenty years, but I didn't expect that I would be detained directly in Black Rock. Mountain Prison is a ghost place, and it is impossible to leave Blackrock Mountain Prison in my lifetime, because no one other than you knows the existence of my grandson, so I am not included in this amnesty order."

   "Then why don't you report this situation to the top? I believe they will consider letting you leave the Black Rock Mountain Prison after knowing that you still have a grandson." Liu Xing couldn't help asking.

As a result, the old man quickly shook his head and said, "That's not good, because although the secret church I belonged to has been destroyed, my enemies outside are still alive and well, so if I reveal that I have grandchildren In fact, then the group of **** **** will definitely come and kill them, so for the safety of my grandson, I can only choose to keep this secret and continue to stay in Blackrock Mountain Prison."

   "That old man, do you trust us so much? Don't you worry that we are also your enemies?" Liu Xing then asked.

The old man smiled and said seriously to Liu Xing: "I really don't worry about this, because I actually know a spell, this spell can make my hearing focus on a certain point, so I am in the brewing center. I heard the conversation between you and Murakami Nishikang, and knew that you were not sent by my enemies, because my enemies had sent people to Heishishan Prison before to get rid of me, so if you were sent by my enemies If so, it is impossible not to know what I look like, so I will choose to come to you for cooperation."

   Liu Xing frowned. He didn't expect that the conversation between himself and Murakami Nishikang would be heard by the old man. The most important thing is that he and Murakami Nishikang also talked bad things about the old man.

At this time, Yin En took up the conversation and said, "Okay, but sir, do you know that the island country is now in a mess, divided into two factions, the public faction and the martial faction, which are separated into one side, so it is not easy for us to go to the hostile forces. Let me talk to you on the site."

"What, has the island country turned into this ghost now?" the old man said in surprise, "That's it, I'll tell you the information about my grandson right now, if you drop by, go there, if not It’s fine if we drop by; because my daughter is married to a Chinese person, my grandson’s name is Liu Xuyu, and he lives in Tokushima Prefecture, Shikoku. If nothing else, he should have graduated from college now, and his most obvious characteristic is He has a very special family genetic disease, and in short, he has to go to the hospital every week to extract knee effusion."

   "Is that all the information?" Yoon Eun said with a frown.

The old man scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, there is only so much information I can give you now, after all, so many years have passed, and even if I tell you some information, it may only be counterproductive."

"Well, if we have the opportunity to go to the Shikoku area, we will find your grandson, but whether we can find it is another matter. After all, it is too difficult to find someone with this information, not to mention those who are now College students will choose to stay in big cities like Tokyo after graduation, so I suspect that he has long been away from Shikoku." Yun En said.

The old man    understood this, of course, so he quickly said, "Of course, if you can find my grandson, it would be great, but it doesn't matter if you don't."

The old man paused and continued: "In order to thank everyone for your help, if you really find my grandson, you can follow him to get the safe, and the contents of the safe will be nothing but some gold, silver, jewelry and passbooks. Besides, you can take the rest of the things, after all, my grandson is an ordinary person, and he doesn't need those things."

   It seems that the "those things" in the old man's mouth should be the reward for this side quest.

   "Well then, we will try to find your grandson." Yin En nodded and said.

   But as soon as he finished speaking, Yin En immediately contacted the kp snail, "kp, I just promised the old man on the surface, I didn't really want to accept that side quest, so don't shake your hands."
