Chosen Prophet [Unlimited]

Xiao Shi was sold into an opera troupe when he was seven years old.

He had no father, no mother, and no proper name since he was a child.He is Zhou Zhenan's tenth apprentice, so he is called Little Ten.According to Zhou Zhenan's intention, after they can officially perform on stage, they will be given nice stage names.

Zhou Zhenan has only one female apprentice, Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu has willow-leaf eyebrows and a pair of bright round eyes. He is very lively and cute. He cares about Xiao Shi the most.

So later Xiao Shi fell in love with Xiao Wu, which was almost a matter of course.

Xiao Wu likes to take pictures of people very much, and he can take pictures of people very beautifully.She took many group photos of Zhou Zhenan and Chu Qing. Zhou Zhenan liked these photos, and in order to reward her, he even bought a camera for her to play with.

Xiao Wu set up the camera in the yard, and often used the excuse of playing with the camera to be lazy and not to practice.

Her brothers and sisters are very hardworking.When they were practicing, the mischievous Xiao Wu always hid behind the camera.Any senior who makes a fool of himself in practicing kung fu must not be able to escape her sneak shots.

Once Xiao Wu was too lazy to be too lazy, and was scolded by the elder brother.

She was made to kneel in the yard and was not allowed to eat dinner.

That night, taking advantage of the dead of night, Xiao Ten secretly took a lot of candies and steamed buns to the yard to give to her.

He thought Xiao Wu might cry.Unexpectedly, when he ran over, he saw Xiao Wu smiling.

——While she was laughing, she was writing and drawing with a brush, and she didn't know what bad idea she was thinking.

"Senior sister, what's wrong with this again?" Xiao Shi approached her and asked her, only to find that she was drawing on a photo.

Xiao Wu picked up the photo and showed it to Xiao Ten. "Brother fell down during his practice last time. He fell to the ground with his butt pouted. I just took a picture of him. Now I draw him with two pointed ears and a tail in this photo. Do you think he looks like that?" A rabbit? Haha, let him punish me, I will show this photo to everyone! Let everyone laugh at him as a rabbit!"

Xiao Ten quickly covered her mouth. "Senior Sister, do you know what a rabbit means? You dare to say that to Senior Brother, so you are not afraid of being beaten by him? If Master hears it, he will scold you too!"

Xiao Wu blinked his eyes, very puzzled. "What's the meaning of a rabbit? It's so cute. I raised one when I was a child. The eldest brother is the big rabbit, I am the five rabbits, and you are the ten rabbits."

Xiao Shi really couldn't explain this kind of thing to his senior sister, so he had to fool around.

When the two of them were a few years older, Xiao Wu finally knew what a bad word "rabbit" was.She was never shy in front of Xiao Ten, and often joked about it with him. "Little brother, why are you embarrassed to explain to me?"

She didn't change her face, but Xiao Shi blushed every time she said it.

So the word "rabbit" became a secret between the two of them, a code that they could only understand.

Time flies.After another few years.Xiao Shi finds out that Xiao Wu has girlish thoughts, as if he is in love with someone.

At first Xiao Shi thought that person was Xiao Jiu.Because Xiao Jiu publicly announced that he likes Xiao Wu, and even gave Xiao Wu a rose.

But later Xiao Shi discovered that Xiao Wu didn't like Xiao Jiu, but their master Zhou Zhen'an.

Xiao Ten was sad, but also worried.

——Everyone knows how much Master loves Master.Xiao Wu is tempted by Master, and he is destined to be sad in the future.

But Xiao Shi didn't expect that Xiao Wu was so obsessed with love that she actually had a crooked idea - she drugged her teacher's wife Chu Qing's voice.

Because in the rumors, Zhou Zhenan fell in love with Chu Qing because of her good voice.

When they first met, Chu Qing was singing in the courtyard gate, Zhou Zhenan passed by outside, and heard her libretto through a wall, before seeing her, he first fell in love with her voice.

What Xiao Wu didn't expect was that Chu Qing's voice became hoarse, and Zhou Zhen'an still treated her as before, and even learned ventriloquism for her.

What she didn't even expect was that Chu Qing committed suicide later.

As soon as Chu Qing died, Zhou Zhenan almost went crazy.

Xiao Shi saw that something was wrong with the master. If he found out that Xiao Wu did all this, he would definitely kill Xiao Wu.So Xiao Shi persuaded Xiao Wu to escape.

After many years, Zhou Zhen'an suddenly wrote a letter saying that the boss was seriously ill and asked Xiao Wu to come back to visit him.

In the end, Zhou Zhen'an found out that he didn't know where Xiao Wu had fled, and he didn't know where to send the letter, so he had to put it in his study.

Afterwards, Zhou Zhenan found a familiar reporter in the newspaper, and passed on the news in the form of a missing person notice.

At that time, the elder brother had already appeared on stage and gained some fame.

As a result, Zhou Zhen'an went crazy, his senior apprentice was seriously ill and dying, Rumeng Garden might be a bit evil, these news spread all over the country, and most of them also reached Xiao Wu's ears.

Xiao Ten thought it was a bait.

Xiao Wu will still be worried about Master and Senior Brother, if she sees these news, she will definitely come back.But when she came back, what was waiting for her was the dead end that Zhou Zhenan had set up for her.

Xiao Shi wants to warn Xiao Wu not to come back.It's just that although he knew Xiao Wu's address, he couldn't deliver the letter.

——There was a Li Shizuo who liked Zhou Zhenan's scene very much. Zhou Zhenan asked him for help, and he happily sent an adjutant and a group of guards with guns to guard outside Rumeng Garden.In this way, Zhou Zhenan trapped the nine apprentices in the garden and forbade them to send any news.

In order to help Xiao Wu, Xiao Shi went to see the elder brother, but the elder brother really pretended to be bedridden. The second elder brother cooperated with him in acting, and even specially invited a doctor to see him.

The third brother followed the doctor to get the medicine and planted it in the garden.When the fourth senior brother was gathering herbs to cook the medicine, Xiao Shi went to steal the prescription and found that the plant was called Artemisia annua.That's not a cure at all, but a poison.

This poison can only be prepared for Xiao Wu.

Xiao Jiu used to like Xiao Wu, so Xiao Ten could only find him to discuss countermeasures. "Does Master want to kill Xiao Wu?"

Xiao Jiu just shed tears and didn't speak.

Xiao Ten was anxious: "What's the use of you just crying? Tell me the truth. I saw Brother Seven digging a hole in the forest, and Brother Six cutting down trees to make a coffin. Are you guys going to join forces with Master to deceive Xiao Wu? Want to trick her back and kill her? I'm the only one who doesn't know about this?"

Xiao Jiu wiped her tears and said: "Yes. Master arranged this matter for senior brother. Senior brother knew what you were thinking, so he didn't tell you. As long as Xiao Wu comes back, he will definitely die. But what can I do? What? She did make a mistake..."

Xiao Jiu didn't help Xiao Ten find a way to save Xiao Wu.But at least he affirmed Xiao Ten's guess.

In order to help Xiao Wu, Xiao Shi scratched his head for many days, and suddenly remembered the secret code between him and Xiao Wu.

So, using the rabbit as the code name, he wrote a metaphorical nursery rhyme on a postcard, put the postcard in a book, and asked the adjutant at the gate of Rumengyuan to help him send it back to his hometown.

That book was a foreign-language children's book he bought in the early years. There were many cartoon illustrations, and a postcard with a nursery rhyme was inserted inside, so it didn't look obtrusive.He explained to the adjutant that it was a foreign toy that Xiao Ten sent to relatives' children.

The adjutant opened the book and checked it, and found nothing wrong, so he agreed.

In this way, the nursery rhyme was sent away, but Xiao Ten was still worried, fearing that in case of accident, Xiao Wu would not receive the letter.

So he wrote the nursery rhyme into a note and folded it into the curtain interlayer in the living room.

When he was a child, he often played hide-and-seek with Xiao Wu.Xiao Wu likes to hide behind this curtain the most.

Later, when he grew up, Xiao Wu still liked staying here the most.But it was no longer because of hide-and-seek, but because from this angle, she could see the master who was singing on the stage.Hiding behind the curtain, she always looked at Master with obsession.

So Xiao Ten thought that if she came back, she might be able to find the hint he gave her from the curtain.

This is not a complete solution.But Zhou Zhenan patrolled upstairs and downstairs all day long.The curtain here is actually a safe place in the dark under the lamp.The nursery rhyme is hidden here, whether Xiao Wu can see it or not, but at least it will not be discovered by Zhou Zhenan and other senior brothers.

Xiao Shi only hoped that if Xiao Wu came back, she would have a chance to see this note and escape in time.

The big rabbit is sick, the second rabbit looks, the third rabbit buys medicine, the fourth rabbit boils, the fifth rabbit dies, the sixth rabbit carries it, the seventh rabbit digs a hole, the eighth rabbit buries it, the ninth rabbit sits on the ground and starts crying, and the ten rabbits ask why it is crying ?Nine rabbits said, five rabbits will never come back!

Xiao Wu, this is the dead end set up for you by your master and your brothers. They prepared the poison to kill you, dug the pit to bury you, and prepared the coffin to carry you to the grave... …

You must not come back.

If you come back, after seeing the nursery rhyme, please leave as soon as possible.

Xiao Wu did not return to Rumengyuan in the end.

Zhou Zhen'an believed that one of the nine apprentices was a traitor, so he passed the news to Xiao Wu.

But he didn't bother to find out who the traitors were, so he directly killed everyone to be buried with Chu Qing.

When Xiao Shi died under the bullet, his only thought was—fortunately, Xiao Wu survived.

A few months later, a puppet doll was sent to Rumengyuan.

The puppet doll wears a jade on its chest, an ancient scroll and a letter wrapped in its clothes.

Master, I asked the puppet to visit you and my brothers for me.

I owe my wife my life, and now I will pay it back with this piece of jade.

——Xiao Wu's own handwriting.

After five full days of rest in the resort area, Duan Yi began to think about what props to buy.

In fact, regarding this matter, he has more or less talked with other players in the past few days-since everyone will enter the next instance together, when buying props, everyone can discuss it.

There are only 50 gold coins per person, and the items that can be purchased are really limited. However, the functions of some items can be shared by multiple players. If everyone is willing to share the items and negotiate the purchase allocation in advance, the use efficiency of gold coins can be maximized.

Duan Yi's proposal was not successful. Wu Junlan and Peng Cheng were willing to share information about the props with him, but they had already spent the gold coins; the others had reservations, not only unwilling to share the props, but also unwilling to let people know that they bought them. What kind of props did you get.

In the end, Duan Yi only got one teammate—Tomorrow.

Duan Yi still has reservations about whether tomorrow is worth trusting.

But no matter what, on this day, he walked into the item store together with tomorrow.

There are not many props priced below 50 gold coins. There are only four items, namely clue highlighter, danger warning bell, return to starting point beads, and attack-resistant umbrella.The first two are 10 gold coins, and the latter two are 15 and 25 respectively.

The function of the props is clear at a glance, as straightforward as the name.

Duan Yi finally chose to return to the starting point bead and resist the attack umbrella.

The former is used in a maze situation, the player can return to the starting point by crushing the bead.

As for the latter, it is an umbrella that can resist a fatal injury.

These two things cost Duan Yi a total of 40 gold coins.There are still 10 gold coins that he didn't spend, and he plans to save them for next time.

He is very interested in one prop - a clock that turns back time.This thing can turn back the time to 10 minutes ago, and the user will retain the memory of these 10 minutes, but others will not.

Duan Yi intuitively felt that such a thing would be of great use, but he couldn't afford it for the time being, so he had to save it for later.

According to the prompt on the store screen, after completing the purchase, the physical object will be automatically sent to the player's room.

So he left the store and Duan Yi went straight back to the hotel.

When he entered the door, he saw that two things had already been placed in the entrance—a black umbrella and a bead strung with red thread.

Duan Yi knelt down to pick up the two items, hung the beads around his neck, and temporarily put the umbrella on the shoe cabinet.

Then there was a knock on the door, and it was tomorrow who came with his props.

Tomorrow, I will display all the props that I just purchased.Duan Yi found out that he had bought an umbrella to resist attacks, a clue highlighter, and a bell that could warn of danger.

To Duan Yi tomorrow: "I think your bead back to the starting point is very good. But if we go together, we can share this prop. So I bought the props you didn't buy. If you need it, just take it from me .”

"Well, good. You put away the props." Duan Yi nodded.

Thinking of something tomorrow, he said again: "Since there are props that can resist death damage, the next dungeon may be more dangerous. You should be more careful then."

Duan Yi thinks so. "Well, for the remaining two days, we all have a good rest. We don't know what will happen in the next dungeon yet."

"Okay. Then I'll go back first. You go to bed early." After saying this tomorrow, I said goodbye.

Duan Yi glanced at his back, but what he thought was, what if the two were on opposite sides in the next game?
