Mortal practice

On Qixi Festival, Su Jue boarded Mie Ling as usual, and instantly noticed that the atmosphere around him seemed to be different from usual. He only knew what day it was when he heard the system message ringing in his ears.

This day is not very meaningful to the original owner who doesn't care about anything else except the game, because the original body does not have a girlfriend in the game or in reality. She washed her face with tears all day long, until she fell ill, she didn't have any good ideas about love and marriage, and she even shy away from this kind of relationship.

Therefore, his concept of Qixi Festival is just the countless activities and benefits brought by the activities.

If two-person activities are really needed to get prizes, such as equipment or skill books, he will randomly find someone to form a team, and after getting the prizes, they will go back to their respective homes.Of course, because his personal strength is too strong, there are still quite a few players who are willing to team up with him. After all, this is basically a business that can make money without losing money.

He was just about to send a signal to the young man to ask where the other party was, when he saw a message from the young man appear on the floating dialog box in front of him.

"I'm in the Golden Castle right now, there's an event here in 10 minutes, are you coming?"

For some reason, the other party was obviously asking a question, and Su Jue seemed to see Xia Hengqiu blinking at him with eyes full of hope.

Su Jue chuckled lightly, replied with a simple good word, and walked towards the direction of the golden castle in Yuanshen's memory.

That place was in the center of Mie Ling Continent. Su Jue walked all the way there and found that there were more than twice as many people around him than usual, especially the more people walked towards the golden castle.Sure enough, everyone came because they knew there were benefits?

"Master, do you want a partner this year?"

"Qiangu God, this event requires two people to register together to enjoy this event. Do you have a partner this time? Do you want to form a team with me?" On the way, I actually met several female players who the original body had worked with before, and they all rushed forward. When I came to ask Su Jue, Su Jue answered patiently at first that he already had a partner, but then simply shook his head.

Fortunately, the people around him have long been used to Su Jue's behavior, and they didn't feel that they were being humiliated. If they failed to ask, they went to find other familiar or relatively strong male players.

Su definitely doesn't know whether two men are allowed to form a team in this kind of Qixi double team game, but he has no interest in forming a team with anyone other than Xia Hengqiu, after all, he is actually relatively indifferent to the skills and equipment in the game .

When he came to the entrance of the golden castle, Su Jue saw Xia Hengqiu standing under a camphor tree about 50 meters away from the gate, looking left and right, among the crowd. He walked over.

Seeing Su Jue, Xia Hengqiu obviously breathed a sigh of relief: "I was so anxious, I thought you would not find me, after all there are so many people here..."

Su Jue shook his head: "You are not hard to find."

Every time I want to find him, the young man will always appear in front of him, this has become a law...

Xia Hengqiu didn't think too deeply about these words, he responded casually and entered the gate of the golden castle with Su Jue.

Su Jue turned his head and glanced at Xia Hengqiu. For some reason, he always felt that something was wrong with the other party today, but he couldn't tell what was wrong, but his eyes wandered from time to time, and he didn't know what life issues he was thinking about.

But he could see that the young man seemed to have known about the activities here in advance, and he led him in a certain direction with a clear purpose as soon as he came in.

Su Jue was a little curious about what the young man wanted to do.

After searching the memory of the original owner, he knew that this place leads to the highest place in the golden castle, the Fez Clock Tower.

Yuan himself had been to that place before, and he had climbed to the top several times for some reason. He knew very well that it was not easy for ordinary players to climb there.

"Is there any activity in the clock tower?" Su Jue asked.

"……what?"

Su Jue looked around and seemed to be distracted again. The young man who was full of doubts felt a little helpless in his heart and didn't ask any more questions.

All the way to the bottom of the clock tower, which looked about 100 meters long, there were already a lot of people gathered there, and they seemed to be discussing something with great interest.From the few words of these people, Su Jue realized that there seemed to be an activity of climbing to the top to snatch the night pearl, so he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

Could it be that the purpose of youth is this night pearl?

"That...cough," Xia Hengqiu seemed to realize that they had arrived, looked at the partners in pairs not far away, coughed dryly and asked Su Jue: "It seems that only two people can participate in a team. Would you...would you like to form a team with me?"

"……certainly."

Su Jue took a look at the restless young man. They had teamed up and downloaded countless dungeons. What's so awkward about this family now?

"Uh, but, this... the Qixi Festival team is organized in the name of a couple," Xia Hengqiu said bravely, "Otherwise, we won't let the team."

Su Jue didn't see the expectation and care in Xia Hengqiu's eyes, and naturally he didn't get the point of the other party's words, but it was even more baffling: "Of course I know this, but they don't know how to read minds, how do they know if we are together?" right?"

Xia Hengqiu had no choice but to point to the registration office not far away. Several "staff" who exchanged their work for game coins were recording the list of participants in the competition: "I need to tell them this..."

It's definitely not that Su has never participated in similar activities. Of course he knows this, but he doesn't understand what the young people are worried or struggling with: "Tell them that we are a couple, isn't that all right?"

When Xia Hengqiu heard this, his face blushed slightly, and he looked sideways at Su Jue's expressionless face. He really couldn't tell whether the other party had any other thoughts when he said this, but Su Jue didn't seem to reject it. But it is more likely that the other party has no awareness of this at all.

I don't know if it's good or bad.

Sighing secretly in his heart, Xia Hengqiu had no choice but to temporarily give up seeing something different from Su Jue's indifferent face, and dragged Su Jue towards the registration office.

"We want to sign up for the activity of the clock tower night light."

The staff glanced at them and said in a daze, "Only couples can sign up."

"We are." Xia Hengqiu said, and after speaking, he glanced at Su Jue, but Su Jue still didn't respond.

The staff member was a girl who was a therapist. At this moment, she glanced at the two in surprise, then nodded in understanding, showing a meaningful smile: "So it's really like this?"

This time it was Xia Hengqiu's turn to be taken aback: "What?"

"Are you Xia Geqiu?" the girl asked.

"……you know me?"

"I was lucky enough to see the Great God Qiangu Juebai before, and I remember his appearance. I heard that the Great God is always a loner, but recently, people saw him fighting monsters with a person named Xia Geqiu every day. yy, I’ve surpassed you, and now you really haven’t let me down... By the way, don’t you watch the gossip column of the World Channel? Someone is serializing your fan fiction.”

Hearing this, the two were stunned for a moment without speaking.

Su Jue really never watched that kind of boring stuff, and Xia Hengqiu was not very interested in those things, but what he didn't expect was that because of Su Jue's special treatment to him, they were actually yelled at by many people...

These people are really... Xia Hengqiu thought to himself, they are too powerful...

The second he heard those words, he quickly turned his head to look at Su Jue's expression, but was disappointed to find that the only expression on his face was still expressionless.

Is this happy or unhappy, or does it not matter?Xia Hengqiu was tangled.

"Okay, I've already registered your account information. Fortunately, there are still a few places left. I wish you two good results." The girl said with a smile.

Xia Hengqiu nodded in embarrassment as a response, then followed Su Jue in silence and turned back to the bottom of the tower.

"Do you know the rules of the game?" Su Jue asked, as if he had completely forgotten the episode just now.

He didn't remember that the original body had participated in this show, it seemed that it was because he was not interested in things like Ye Mingzhu. After all, besides being good-looking, there are actually many substitutes in terms of practicality.

"Actually, it's just forming a team, and then you can rest," Xia Hengqiu said. "This activity is to send a party to climb the tower. Before the timer expires, the Ye Mingzhu will belong to whoever holds it."

Su Jue understood the point at once, which means that only one of two people can grab the pearl, and the person who climbed to the top first may not necessarily get the Ye Mingzhu, because as long as he gets the Ye Mingzhu within the time limit, no matter whether it is by first First served or by grabbing, it doesn't matter.

"You mean, you go to grab it?" Su Jue asked.

Xia Hengqiu nodded.

Why don't young people let themselves go?Similar things can be easily obtained by relying on Su Jue's ability.

Su Jue opened his mouth and was about to ask, but when he saw the young man looking up at Ye Mingzhu, the other party's bright eyes and determined expression, he swallowed the words back.

The other party has his reasons for doing so.

Maybe this bead has an extraordinary meaning to young people.

The activity started soon. Su Jue was standing at the bottom of the tower, surrounded by many female players cheering for his male partner. It seemed a bit awkward for a male player Su Jue to stand here silently, but Su Jue seemed born without Embarrassed or embarrassing, he calmly looked up at the young man climbing the tower, without blinking his eyes.

This activity is not as simple as it seems.

Especially compared to Xia Hengqiu.

For the sake of fairness, the use of floating skills is not allowed in the process of climbing the tower. You must climb up step by step. This is because of the occupational restrictions of the players. Some people can fly and some cannot. If the players who can fly can fly quickly Going up, the speed must be faster than others, is this a fart?It's just that there is no skill in Mie Ling that can fly up to more than 100 meters at once, and the skill will be invalid after 20 meters at most, but it is also suspected of being cheated.

The reason why it is said to be difficult is that there are not many places where the clock tower rests. Although the tower wall has a certain degree of friction and inclination angle, it is better than nothing. If one is not paying attention, it will slide down. Either they slipped down by themselves, or they were attacked by other players.

There are also those who were knocked down halfway up, and had to start over from the beginning.

But the young man seems to have been taking one step at a time, steadily climbing to a little more than halfway, it looks like he has practiced several times.

Su Jue recalled the last two times before he went offline, every time he heard the young man say that he had something to go somewhere, and sometimes he even ended the book early because of the matter that the other party said, did he come here?

Why do young people want this luminous pearl so much?Su Jue was a little confused, but in the next second, his gaze froze.

Because another person appeared next to Xia Hengqiu. This person had thrown many players down before. It was clear that the other party didn't look for him or provoke him, but he seemed to enjoy throwing people down. Most importantly, this person It's still an acquaintance, and it's the Huang Hai who was called a knot before.Maybe his girlfriend is among the female players standing not far away shouting for support.

Xia Hengqiu, who was struggling to climb the tower, seemed to suddenly realize something at this moment. He felt a slight chill coming from the left side, and subconsciously stepped on a small closed window next to him. It wasn't that he reacted quickly, he probably fell down by now.

He turned his head just to meet Shang Huanghai's playful gaze, and the other party sneered, "Hey, isn't this the little follower of Qiangu Juebai? Come to grab the Ye Mingzhu? Why don't you let your master come and grab it?"

Xia Hengqiu gritted his teeth. He couldn't bear the way the other party was arrogant and said such disgusting words, so he couldn't help but replied, "None of your business?"

"None of my business?" Huang Hai didn't expect that the guys in this guild who were not as high as him and had no background dared to talk back to him, and suddenly became angry: "Don't you fucking look at how much you are? Believe it or not!" Can get you down in seconds?"

When Huang Hai sees Xia Hengqiu now, he will think of Su Jue, and when he thinks of Su Jue, he will think of the humiliation of that day, new and old grudges are brought out together.
