Chosen Prophet [Unlimited]

The morning light has dissipated.

The sun on the desert gradually became dazzling and hot.

The four people walking on the desert at this moment are the Second Senior Brother, the Junior Junior Brother, Bai Sinian, and Yun Hao.

The little junior brother pursed his lips tightly, looking very anxious.

The second senior brother was also in a hurry, his slightly chubby forehead was sweating all the time.

Bai Sinian and Yun Hao who were in the front walked very slowly. Each of them took a branch, and they both maintained the posture of moving forward slowly while pushing the sand.

The second senior brother couldn't hold back any longer: "No, two, are we looking for treasures in the sand? Can we hurry up? Where is the senior brother? Take us there quickly! This is life-saving thing!"

Bai Sinian looked back at him, and said with a smile: "Oh, don't mind, we just found these rocks hidden in the sand, the road is very difficult to walk! Yesterday a businessman in one of our teams fell hard, This leg is limping, so we have to walk carefully. There is no way!"

"But you're too careful—"

The second senior brother hadn't finished speaking when Bai Sinian suddenly interrupted him.

With a little light in his eyes, Bai Sinian asked him again: "Well, Second Senior Brother... You and Junior Brother have come and gone, have you never stepped on any stone?"

"No. Why don't I know what rocks are here?" Second senior brother said, "Otherwise, tell me the direction, and I'll take you there!"

Hearing this, Yun Hao and Bai Sinian glanced at each other, and asked the second senior brother: "It seems that you know where you will go without encountering stones? Can you accurately avoid these stones?"

"Stones are not stones. I don't know what you're talking about. But every morning before going out to give alms, the big brother will give us some luck. Which direction or where can't go, there will be bad luck, these big brothers will Tell us clearly in advance. He is very accurate in his calculations and has never had any problems! That's why neither my junior brother nor I have fallen down!"

The second senior brother urged anxiously, "So, don't rummage around in the ground, and don't be afraid of falling! Tell us where the senior brother is! Tell us the location, and I will use the information given to me by the senior brother." Take you there, you will be fine!"

As soon as the second senior brother said this, Yun Hao and Bai Sinian looked at each other again.

These two people have been in the same team before, and they have cooperated extremely tacitly until now.

Both of them are smart people, so naturally they quickly grasped the key information from the second senior brother's words.

Everything that Daguang did was done without the knowledge of the two brothers.He didn't mean to harm the two juniors, that's why he showed them the way and told them which places they couldn't go.

In fact, Daguang's behavior has in turn confirmed everyone's previous speculation - the culprit who set a trap for harming people in the desert is indeed Daguang.

In the following period of time, Yun Hao and Bai Sinian cooperated tacitly with the second senior brother and the younger senior brother wandering around in the desert to buy time for Duan Yi.

"Hey? You obviously saw Master Daguang here before?"

"No, no, we went the wrong way. You see, I said you should listen to me just now! You are a road idiot!"

"Who are you talking about road idiots? Many places in this desert look the same, and it's normal for me to misunderstand the road. Don't you think you are amazing? Okay, okay, this time you take it. I want to see how powerful you are , can you lead us to find the master immediately!"

"Don't talk nonsense, just follow me."

"Hey, let me go, the road you are leading is wrong, where is Master Daguang?"

……

Conversations like this keep happening between Bai Sinian and Yun Hao.

Second Senior Brother and Junior Junior Brother followed them from south to north, from west to east, and passed for a long time, but they didn't find any trace of Daguang.

After a long time, the little junior brother couldn't hold back anymore, and he finally came to his senses.

He looked at Bai and Yun suspiciously, clenched his fists and said, "Second Senior Brother, Senior Senior Brother said that he is going to Yilai Town today. I will go to that town first to see if I can find him! If I find Senior Senior Brother , it means that these businessmen are talking nonsense. It is very likely... This is a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain!

"Stop wandering around with them, go back and have a look. The elder brother said that among the three of us, someone must stay in the yard to watch. What if they destroy the skull and our ceremony? I think the general was right, the origins of these Chinese merchants are too suspicious!"

After saying this, the junior brother immediately turned around and ran away.

The second senior brother thought for a while, and felt that the younger brother's words were justified, so he looked at Yun Hao and Bai Sinian in horror.Then he squeezed the rosary in his hand hard, and hurried back in the direction of the sky burial platform.

Seeing this, Yun Hao and Bai Sinian quickly ran in another direction, intending to detour back to the Sky Burial Tower and inform Duan Yi and the others of the changes here.

Although Wu Junlan and Hu Jin were arranged to keep watch and they should be able to see the situation of the second senior brother's return, but they were afraid that something might happen, so they decided to go back together to have a look.

The direction the two of them ran was that they had brought the two senior brothers over while observing the trap just now, so they were not afraid of stepping on those weird stones, and they were able to return to the celestial burial platform very quickly.

·

Last night, after going back in time several times, the players saw Tong Nian committing suicide under the influence of some unknown force in the desert.

Knowing that they were powerless to change the ending, the players all returned to the camp to take a rest, and after dawn, they went back to the celestial burial platform, wanting to confirm what would happen to Tong Nian.

Because she didn't want to face the scene of her friend being dismembered, Dou Shuang stayed in the camp, while Dongfang Yu offered to stay with her.Except for the two of them, all the other players came to the celestial burial platform, and found that two celestial burial ceremonies had been held here, and the suspected heads of Tong Nian and the merchant had been placed on the skull wall.

After that, Duan Yi, Mingming, Wu Junlan, and Hu Jin stayed in the courtyard of the celestial burial platform, while Yun Hao and Bai Sinian left with their two senior brothers.

While Duan Yi and the others were discussing countermeasures and deciding on a plan to adjust the tiger away from the mountain, Hong Xian and Shu Rongrong seemed to choose to leave the yard early because they were unwilling to participate in the plan, but they did not go far.

Leaving the yard and passing Populus euphratica forest, the two hid in a big rock not far from the yard, quietly observing the situation near the celestial burial platform.

With the disappearance of the morning glow, the players and main NPCs in the desert continued to disperse and act separately.

The junior brother went to find the senior brother Da Guang; the second senior brother was heading back to the celestial burial platform along the nearest straight road; Run around quickly.

Duan Yi is still rummaging through boxes and cabinets in the three rooms in the yard at the moment, trying not to let go of every clue.

Tomorrow, I will carry the clay pot all the way away from the celestial burial platform, and head straight to the southern military camp.

When he was approaching the barracks, he found a place to hide those strange stones, and picked up some similar-looking stones along the way and put them into jars.

As for Dongfang Yu and Dou Shuang, after some discussions, the two also left the tent and started to rush to the celestial burial platform, as if they wanted to see the progress of cracking the dungeon.

At this moment, Hong Xian and Shu Rongrong were hiding behind a big rock, discussing countermeasures while poking their heads.

Shu Rongrong asked Hong Xian: "You said that little soldier is the NPC who has a good relationship with Duan Yi, what was in the clay jar he brought out from the courtyard of the celestial burial platform just now?

"

Hong Xian shook his head: "How could I have guessed this? But it should be a more important clue. I just don't know if he is helping Duan Yi out of selfishness, or is he following the plot of the dungeon."

After thinking for a while, Shu Rongrong said: "No matter what the possibility is, it is quite dangerous, right? If it is Da Guang's thing, he will definitely be angry when he comes back and sees that it is missing. Maybe this will increase the risk of death. "

What Shu Rongrong said was indeed a reasonable guess.

The risk of death for dungeons increases with the number of days in the game.

In the first two days, players may be able to explore at will. Even if the risk of death is triggered, generally speaking, the boss will not kill innocent people indiscriminately in the first two days, and stop after killing one or two at most.

But in the later stage, the system's restrictions on NPCs will be weakened, and NPCs are likely to wantonly attack players as the plot progresses.

Realizing this, he squinted his eyes and glanced at the desolate and temporarily quiet desert ahead, Hong Xian said: "In short, let's hide here and wait and see for a while, don't act rashly. But this location is a bit far from the celestial burial platform. Now Now that Duan Yi has left the Populus euphratica forest, let's take a look inside. He stayed there for a while just now, so there should be no danger there."

Shu Rongrong agreed to Hong Xian's suggestion, and the two of them left the big rock with their waists bent and sneaked into the Populus euphratica forest.

Both of them hid in the woods for quite a while, from the time when the morning glow completely faded to when the sun became scorching hot.

Seeing that there was nothing unusual outside, Hong Xian adjusted his posture and half-sat on the ground quite leisurely.

Leaning his head on a Populus euphratica forest, he looked at Shu Rongrong and smiled. "I didn't have time to talk to you alone before. So what happened yesterday afternoon?"

Shu Rongrong also smiled at him. "What else could it be? Of course I spent a time clock back to save you. You were the one who stepped on that rock in the first place."

Hong Xian looked at her and said, "But you mainly want to test whether that stone is a death trap, right?"

"It's a temptation, but also to save you. Why do you still ask that? I thought we were exactly the same kind of people." Shu Rongrong brushed her long hair, tilted her head and smiled coquettishly.

Shu Rongrong is indeed beautiful, even though she is wearing a dirty businessman's clothes, even if she is full of dust, but when she brushes her hair and tilts her head, she is so charming that people can't take their eyes off it.

After looking at her for a long time, Hong Xian sighed. "If we meet in reality, without these life and death matters, it must be very pleasant to fall in love with someone like you."

"What's so fun about falling in love?" Shu Rongrong said with a smile, "Just sleep with me."

Even Hong Xian seemed a bit dumbfounded when he heard such words.

Glancing at his expression, Shu Rongrong raised her eyebrows, and said, "Why do you look so surprised? You should know your personality best. If you are with someone like you, if you are really tempted, then you will suffer. Myself. I want to be smarter."

Hong Xian spread his hands and said: "Okay, I reflected on my behavior and found that what you said was indeed reasonable. Then it makes sense to be with you. We stay together when we are happy, and we separate when we are unhappy. It is enough to be happy when we are together. If I can't think about it and really like you, I will be scumbag by you. "

"Yes." Shu Rongrong looked at him with a half-smile, and blinked at him, "If we are really together, maybe I will wear many cuckolds for you."

In this way, the two hid in the woods and chatted for a while, when rustling footsteps sounded on the desert outside the woods.

Hong Xian was the first to notice the movement. After gesturing to Shu Rongrong, the two of them approached the direction of the sound with their waists bent. Then they hid behind the tree and looked out into the desert—it was Dongfang Yu and Dou Shuang who had left. come over.

The two people stopped in front of the west gate of the dilapidated courtyard.

Dongfang Yu said: "The gate of the courtyard is locked. I can't hear scriptures, nor can I hear any other conversations. Have the other players left? It doesn't feel right."

Dou Shuang frowned, subconsciously took a step back. "Then let's not go there yet. How should we go back to the barracks to find them?"

Dongfang Yu said: "We came from the barracks, and we didn't meet any players. If they are not here at the celestial burial platform, they should go to other places in this desert to find clues. But even if the players are not here, the believers should be there." .They should have someone guarding here, otherwise anyone can go in and explore Daguang's secret."

Dou Shuang asked: "You mean...in order to avoid people discovering his secret, Da Guang will definitely let people guard here?"

"Yes. So there must be something wrong with the sound of scriptures here." Dongfang Yu thought for a moment, and said, "Maybe some players have used the strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain. Daguang is not around every day, as long as his two senior brothers are lured Open, players can go in and explore."

"Then what are your plans now?" Dou Shuang asked her.

Dongfang Yu looked around, lingering on Populus euphratica for a long time, and then placed it next to the big rock not far away. "Let's hide over the stone. Actually, you can hide in the forest, but I'm afraid there are traps in the forest. After all, the light in there is not good, and it's easy to step on the pit. Besides, it's too close to the celestial burial platform. If there is anything One, we hid over the rock, so we had more time to run."

Hearing Dongfang Yu's words, both Shu Rongrong and Hong Xian in the Populus euphratica forest heaved a sigh of relief.

Dongfang Yu took Dou Shuang to the same stone that the two of them used to hide earlier.

The reason why they chose to use that stone to hide before was also similar to Dongfang Yu.

Shu Rongrong originally planned that if Dongfang Yu and the others would enter the Populus euphratica forest, she and Hong Xian would leave quietly one step earlier.Of course, if she and Hong Xian were discovered by them, that would be fine, anyway, Shu Rongrong would not feel too embarrassed, but she would lose a chance to observe Dongfang Yu.

After a while, seeing that Dongfang Yu and Dou Shuang had already hid at the stone, Shu Rongrong gave Hong Xian a wink, and the two walked away from the stone and reached the other corner of Populus euphratica forest.

Then Shu Rongrong lowered her voice and asked, "Do you think there is something wrong with that Dongfang Yu?"

Hong Xian asked back: "What's the problem?"

Shu Rongrong said: "Since the last dungeon, she has been very solitary. She doesn't trust anyone easily, and doesn't team up with anyone. But why is she with Dou Shuang now?"

Glancing at Dongfang Yu, Hong Xian said in a low voice: "Well... your worry is justified, we all saw Tong Nian committing suicide last night, when we came here in the morning, we all thought we would see Tong Nian being separated. Corpse. We came late, missed it, didn't see anything, let's not talk about it. But we always came with this idea...

"It's understandable that Dou Shuang doesn't want to come here with us to face the scene of her friend being dismembered. It's also understandable if Wu Junlan proposed to stay with her and worry about her situation. But why does Dongfang Yu, who is alone, do this? ...is indeed strange. What do you think?"

Shu Rongrong bit her lower lip for a while, and then said: "I carefully recalled what happened yesterday afternoon. Do you remember that Dongfang Yu was the last one to return to the team?"

Yesterday afternoon, after Shu Rongrong designed Tong Nian, she has been observing Tong Nian's actions and imitating them.

Of course, when voting at night, she had a premonition that Tong Nian would probably die, but she would definitely not die. Shu Rongrong gave up imitating. She simply spoke logically and proposed that the princess was also logical, trying to make everyone think that the one in her The trap is different from Tong Nian.

At that time, she had no choice but to play by ear and take one step at a time.

In this way, although Shu Rongrong gave up imitating Tong Nian during the voting discussion at night, when the incident happened in the afternoon, she had been observing Tong Nian and trying to imitate her.She pretended to be in a coma, and pretended to see the red flowers, during which time went back several times.

When using the Reverse Time Clock, only the prop user will have the memory of those 10 minutes.

Therefore, Shu Rongrong also lost part of her memory.

In the end, when Duan Yi and his party came, Wu Junlan and others explained to Duan Yi. After listening in, Shu Rongrong fully understood the whole process of the matter.

At that time, Dongfang Yu was not there.

Duan Yi first asked Dongfang Yu where he was going and if he had also fallen into a trap.

And through his words, Shu Rongrong learned that what Dongfang Yu told Duan Yi and the others was that she would leave the celestial burial platform and join her line of business.But among my group of people, no one has seen Dongfang Yu.

She arrived late just when everyone was starting to worry about her safety.

Shu Rongrong said to Hong Xian: "Do you remember, after Dongfang Yu returned to the team, she said that she saw some old woman and went to her house to sit for a while, so she came late. But how can there be any people around here? She went to talk to the old woman. What did the woman talk about? On the way back, I heard Bai Sinian ask her this. But she didn't say anything, pretending to be reserved. But it is very likely that she never met the old woman people."

Hong Xian asked her: "Then what are you doubting now?"

Shu Rongrong frowned in a rare way, and looked deeply at Dongfang Yu's direction. "Of course I suspect that she saw everything I did. If that's the case, she's well hidden. Think about it——

"I wasn't sure at the time. My behavior would definitely kill Tong Nian. I thought there was a 50% chance of her death. But in order to clear the level and to further explore the plot, I wanted to see what would happen to Tong Nian. I did it anyway. In order to achieve my goal, I even pretended to be dizzy and delayed the time by more than 10 minutes, lest someone use the reverse clock again.

"If Dongfang Yu really saw all this, what does it mean? It means that she didn't save Tong Nian by turning back the time clock. Dou Shuang didn't save Tong Nian in time because time was too late. But Dongfang Yu just watched everything happen. Yes, if she wanted to, she could stop everything. But she didn't. In her eyes, the possibility of Tong Nian's death should also be 50%, and she chose to stand by and watch."

Hearing this, Hong Xian's expression became more serious. "If she really saw everything, she not only failed to save Tong Nian, but now she deliberately ran to find Dou Shuang—this can only show that she wants to use Dou Shuang to deal with you, or...to deal with you and me."

Biting her lower lip again, Shu Rongrong said: "The current performance of the two of us is a little scumbag, a little bit sloppy, and a little annoying, but it's not a big villain. I even helped the werewolf in the last game. I can still find a reason to explain why Duan Yi was delayed. In short, there is still room for our image to be restored. But if Dongfang Yu tells this matter, it will really be completely detrimental to both of us. Bai Si Nian, Yun Hao... I don't think they are necessarily good. What if they want to get rid of us? What's more..."

The voice became deep, and Shu Rongrong said again: "Besides, Dongfang Yu's posture is to join forces with Dou Shuang to deal with us. In any case, we must...be the first to act first."

·

After about 10 minutes.

Outside the courtyard where the celestial burial platform and the skull wall are located, Yun Hao and Bai Sinian ran over panting.

The two passed by the south gate where Hu Jin was just now, called his name a few times, and after drawing him out, they ran to the west gate and called Wu Junlan.

Finally, the four of them went to the courtyard wall closest to the three mud houses and called Duan Yi's name.

Yun and Bai just called Duan Yi twice, and Wu Junlan caught a glimpse of a fat figure moving over the sand dunes not far away. "That seems to be the second senior brother, we have to get out of here quickly."

"Fuck, it's not just the second senior brother..." Hu Jin swallowed hard, and pointed his finger in another direction, "The two people over there...could be the little junior brother and Da Guang Da Boss! "

Hearing this, Wu Junlan, Yun Hao, and Bai Sinian turned their heads together, and sure enough, they saw two voices, one tall and one short, walking towards this side slowly under the scorching sun and on the yellow sand.

The person walking in front should be Daguang.

He wore a reddish-brown hat with many beads on it.Wearing a red monk's robe, he approached here calmly.

Looking at it from here, his pace is very slow.

But for some reason, he moved very fast, as if he could move quite a distance in the blink of an eye.

After Wu Junlan glanced at him, she seemed to be attracted by him, and began to keep looking at him.

It seems that he is really a god who can lead people to the Paradise of Ultimate Bliss in the Western Paradise. His eyes are full of pity and compassion, which makes people yearn infinitely.

Suddenly feeling her knees softened, Wu Junlan suddenly came back to her senses, and found that she almost knelt down to that person.

Immediately, a layer of sweat broke out on the back, and Wu Junlan took a closer look - Da Guang had already walked in front of her.

But my group, Yun Hao, Bai Sinian, and Hu Jin, all stood in place, and none of them thought of running.
