Marry an NPC if your EQ is low

The door opened silently.

But Ji Han didn't see the person who opened the door, he only saw the dark courtyard inside through the gate, the flickering lights in the distance, and the swaying shadows of flowers and trees.

He heard Bai Xiaoyi's gentle and polite voice: "Poverty Daoist took his disciples to practice on Ziyin Mountain, but a month ago the Taoist temple was occupied by a group of demons, so he had to flee with his disciples in a hurry, and wanted to go west to join his senior brother, passing through the treasure land. , I wonder if I can stay overnight?"

A hoarse and deep voice replied: "Of course, the master is willing to do good, and the Taoist priest must be very welcome."

The voice was extremely polite, but very unpleasant, as if a piece of sandpaper had been scratched through a person's heart.Following the sound, Ji Han saw the person who opened the door—he was hidden in the shadow of the door, his height was only up to Bai Xiaoyi's waist, his limbs were short, and although he couldn't see his face clearly, he didn't think he looked good.

Ji Han wondered, Li's family has a great career, so they naturally pay attention to appearance, so why would they choose such a person as the gatekeeper.

Hearing the words, Bai Xiaoyi thanked warmly: "Then thank you, Master." After saying that, he turned around: "Han'er, why don't you hurry up and catch up?"

The moment Ji Han followed Bai Xiaoyi into the gate of Li's Mansion, he heard a system prompt: "You have triggered the mission 'Chang'an Li's Mansion', please explore carefully and proceed carefully. Warm reminder: People are not necessarily people~ I wish you Enjoy the game."

... How can you enjoy the game with such a warm reminder!

Ji Han resolutely trotted forward two steps, and pulled up his master's sleeve.

His master's sleeves are much shorter and smaller than before, and Bai Xiaoyi did not let him pull it silently like before, but stopped and looked back at him gently, and gently took his hand away: "It will be a joke for the master to rely on the master so much at such an age." It fully shows the image of a good master who depends on his disciples for life.

Ji Han looked at his master silently, not realizing that his eyes looked not only pitiful, but also vaguely panicked.

People are always like this, when they feel that they are still very good, others actually look very low.

Bai Xiaoyi looked at him for a while, suppressed the smile on his lips, gently stroked his head, and whispered: "Let's go, don't keep the master waiting."

The host was indeed waiting for them.

The gatekeeper took them to the main room with the lights on and then withdrew, asking the master and apprentice to go in by themselves.

The interior of the room is a typical ancient household decoration, with vases and mirrors on the table, and carved wooden chairs on both sides.Among them, an old lady was sitting on the main seat, and a young maid who was only twenty-eight years old stood behind her.

This one is weird.

Not to mention that they didn't see anyone other than the gatekeeper from the beginning to the end, how did the master know they were coming? It was very strange to let an old lady come out to meet guests at night.What's more, judging by the appearance of this old woman, her status in Li's residence is obviously not low, and she has the demeanor of Jia's mother all over her body.The former can also be regarded as a system bug, while the latter is definitely related to his mission.

The old lady talked a lot when she saw them coming in.

When she spoke, she spoke hoarsely and slowly, and her words were quaint, and it may be because of her age. She kept saying some things over and over again, and she talked about a little thing for about an hour, during which the little maid kept telling the old lady He beat his back and didn't talk to him.

All in all, the old lady's general idea is that their family is very, very good, promising for generations, knowledgeable and well-behaved; her husband has passed away for many years, and now there are two sons and one daughter in the family.The eldest son is in charge of housework; the younger son is in poor health and stays sick all year round. His wife takes care of him and has no children yet; the daughter married to the Liu family in Yangzhou three years ago, but brought her grandson back to visit her old mother half a month ago.

Although the double Q in the game has declined, Ji Han's memory is still just as good. After listening to it once, he can remember the main mission characters, and the relationship is basically clear.

The old lady finished speaking contentedly, and took a sip of tea: "Where is the Taoist priest?"

When Bai Xiaoyi was about to answer, another group of people came in.

Facts have proved that there are always players who don't read the strategy. Even in a cheating game like Qinglang, they still have the courage to face the bleak life.

Of course, there is another situation, that is, they have more information than the people who wrote the strategy, and they know some secrets that others don't know, so they are willing to enter the tiger's den and risk wealth.

There were five people in total, three men and two women, and one man and one woman were acquaintances.

Ji Han felt as if he was being summoned by his teammates*, every time he met acquaintances in the strange dungeon, last time it was Li Meng and Wang Tuantuan, this time it was Niu Yang and Zeng Xiaoqian.

Niu Yang is Wang Tuantuan's roommate, that is, the girl in their friendly dormitory; Zeng Xiaoqian is his buddy next door, known as Zeng Ba, who is not only the top student in their class but also a well-known top student in his grade.Sister Niu Yang never played online games, she started Qinglang's journey after hearing a lot of good reviews from Qinglang and the three roommates in the dormitory were playing, so naturally she didn't pay attention to strategy forums and the like; Zeng Ba came here entirely for holography , one experienced advanced technology, and the other had a girlfriend who went to college in Shanghai. The two had been in a long-distance relationship for a year, and they could see each other often in Qinglangli.And for Zeng Ba, a hall-level academic master, what's the point of coming to Li's mansion to pick up a task at night?The pattern is simply broken.

Ji, Niu, and Zeng met and started reminiscing about the old days, from how Niu Yang started playing games and happened to meet Zeng Xiaoqian to Zeng Ba’s girlfriend and classmates who did the main task—so he sent him to finish the task at night, Zeng Ba just happened Niu Yang, who was about to complete the mission again, took her to the nearest mission point, Li's Mansion, and briefly explained the series of causes and consequences.

The remaining three players belonged to a group, and they also came to do the mission, but they dared not enter in front of the eerie gate of the Li Mansion.Just when they met Niu Zeng, the two of them gathered enough courage to come in.

Seeing Ji Han, the two naturally left the original team and sat beside Ji Han.

Although a suit of ordinary player equipment can take away the aura and brilliance of the whole body, Xiao Yi's charm is still at the MAX level even if he only looks at the white face. Niu Yang said that as an honest and innocent girl, he can't resist at all!So he quietly asked Ji Han: "Who is this?"

Ji Han thought for a moment, then said firmly, "My master."

Niu Yang and Zeng Xiaoqian thought it was an ordinary player master, so they didn't pay attention.Niu Yang hurriedly said hello in a low voice: "Master Ji Han is good."

Zeng Ba also smiled shyly, and nodded in greeting: "Master Ji."

Bai Xiaoyi nodded with a smile, and glanced at Ji Han with a slight smile in his eyes.

The girl in green was slightly dissatisfied when she saw the two people who had just joined the group run away in an instant, but she didn't say anything.No matter how realistic Qinglang is, it is just a game and still follows some rules of traditional games.In traditional online games, it is often the case that in-game acquaintances fighting side by side are not as good as acquaintances nodding in reality.Just now, when Ji Han talked with Niu Yang and Zeng Xiaogan, it was obvious that they knew each other in real life, and she couldn't care less about it, but she couldn't help but feel unhappy, so she took her two teammates to sit on the other side.

Seeing that everyone sat down, Mrs. Li didn't ask other questions, and didn't continue to ask "Where is the Taoist?" Instead, he repeated what he had just said, and it lasted for nearly an hour, repeating Reply, not a word or a pause has changed.Ji Han knew she was an NPC, so he didn't find it strange, it was just annoying.Bai Xiaoyi didn't say anything, but kept looking at Ji Han from the corner of his eyes, but his apprentice didn't notice.

After finishing speaking, Li took a sip of tea and turned to Bai Xiaoyi: "Where is the Taoist?"

Bai Xiaoyi smiled slightly, with a gentle air suddenly: "The poor Daoist Bai Wu originally took his disciples to practice on Ziyin Mountain, but unfortunately the Taoist temple was taken over by a group of demons a month ago, so he had to flee with his disciples in a hurry, wanting to go west. I went to my senior brother face to face, passed through the treasured land, and saw that the master’s family is quite benevolent, so I came to stay for one night.” The words were the same as what I said to the gatekeeper.

Then he turned his head and pointed to Ji Han next to him: "This is my apprentice Bai Han."

At this time, Ji Han suddenly became aware, he found that the master did not say his real name.Bai Xiaoyi is easy to understand, after all, the name of Purple Immortal is known all over the world, but he also changed his name to "Bai Han", which is a bit strange.

When Mrs. Li was talking just now, he and Niu Yang Zeng Xiaoqian became friends with each other. At this time, he quietly sent a private message: "Don't say your real name."

Sure enough, after listening to Bai Xiaoyi's words, Mrs. Li looked at Zeng Xiaoqian: "Where did these two guests come from?"

Zeng Xiaoqian: "We are passers-by, my name is Zeng Ba."

Niu Yang: "I am Niu Bao."

They are talking about the "nicknames" they are usually called.

Mrs. Li nodded, and turned to the woman in green: "Where are the three?"

It was a man in short gray clothes who answered: "We are also passers-by, my name is Xu Wen'an." He waved his finger at the girl in green clothes: "Sister-in-law Xu Wencai." Finally, he pointed at another man in a blue gown: " This is our friend Zhao Qing."

Mrs. Li nodded and said: "Everyone is tired after traveling so far, it's getting late today, go to rest earlier."

She turned her head and ordered: "Jing'er, arrange a room for some distinguished guests to rest."

The back-beating servant girl should be the one who led the seven people out to a row of rooms behind: "There are seven rooms here, and the servant girl has arranged for someone to clean them up. Please feel free to move in."

The brothers and sisters of the Xu family first picked three rooms to go in, and when it was their turn, Zeng Xiaoqian and Niu Yang looked at Ji Han and his master, and at each other.In the end, Zeng Ba turned his attention to Niu Yang: "Let's go, let's go to rest too."

Although they all know that the next step is definitely not "rest".

Ji Han nodded to the two and waved goodbye temporarily.

Jing'er turned her gaze to Bai Xiaoyi: "The Taoist priest, please rest earlier."

However, Bai Xiaoyi smiled slightly. Even though there were dark clouds and no moon in the sky tomorrow, his smile seemed to be full of brilliance, and You Tan was born in darkness. Let alone a human being, even a fairy or ghost would lose his mind for a moment.Ji Han felt that his master was smiling very wrongly.

He said: "Trouble girl, my little apprentice and I are used to practicing together, we don't need two rooms, one room is enough."

Jing'er shook her head, and said in a polite manner: "Prince Taoist, please do what you want." Then she withdrew.

Bai Xiaoyi suppressed his smile, and said lightly: "Let's go." He took the lead and entered the room next to Niu Yang, Ji Han followed, and the last room was vacated just like that .
