Volume 1 The Starry Sky Chapter 8 Mai Shen Xiang Tao Half Immortal
Out of the woods, but did not see the expected "novice village", only a lonely thatched hut, an old tree next to the house stretched crookedly in front of the thatched house, under the tree the old man with white hair sat behind a half-new and not old table of eight immortals, next to the table on the green bamboo pole picked up a disguise, on the book four big characters - "Mai Shenxiang"!
"It seems that this game is in the oriental fantasy style. Zhang Wangxi muttered to himself, relieved of the previous use of Chinese characters in the name of the game. At this time, the surroundings were already crowded with people, and the whole path was lined up in a long line, like queuing up to buy some in-demand goods, but fortunately, the speed of progress was not slow, it seemed that the efficiency of the white-bearded old man was really fast, unlike some departments of the alliance, doing things slowly, and things that could be done in five minutes could not be done in two hours.
The crowd is quite orderly, after all, everyone is not familiar with it, only some people who are naturally familiar with each other chatter and sell their opinions, as if they have just seen the novice village has become the top master of the game, in addition to some people shouting: "XX trade union accepts people, there are many benefits, there are many beauties, there are many beauties......", obviously this is just a familiar role. Surrounded by the crowd like this, Zhang Wangxi came to the old man's approach.
I saw that the people in front of me walked to the table in a row for a while, and then the old man raised his arms and shook his wrists, and the row of people entered the hut behind. No wonder it's so fast, this old man still processes it in batches, but I don't know if he has rheumatoid arthritis in his arm, this constant lifting of his arm and shaking his hand is a hard work, and Zhang Wangxi's groove has already vomited on the NPC's head.
In a blink of an eye, the person in front of him walked away, and then he saw the name on the top of the old man's head - Tao Banxian. This Tao Banxian squinted his eyes and twisted his beard, looking like an old god was there, and it was quite like that. Ten round stone slabs were spread on the open space in front of Tao Banxian's table, Zhang Wangxi and the people next to him walked up to the stone slabs, and the old man who was originally squinting opened his big eyelids full of wrinkles and looked at them for a while: "Young man, I see that you have clear bones and starlight in your eyes, and with a little practice, you will definitely be able to kill demons and save the common people, old man, I have some methods here, I don't know if you want to learn?" "
"Old man Tao, have you eaten this morning?" Zhang Wangxi didn't answer Tao Banxian's words, but replied thoughtlessly.
"After eating, why do you want to invite my old man to dinner? But I see that you also have no long things, so let's get down to business. Tao Banxian was stunned for a moment, and then pulled the topic back.
"Just ask, just ask" Zhang Wangxi was a little embarrassed, he complained a little more in the past few days, but he didn't expect retribution to come so quickly, and he was actually despised by an NPC. In fact, he just wanted to test the IQ of this NPC, an NPC who only knows how to do things according to the program and an NPC who can communicate are completely different concepts. Speaking of which, the current artificial intelligence is really good.
"Then what if I want to learn, what if I don't want to learn, what can I say?" asked Zhang Wangxi.
"Look," the old man pointed to the hut behind him, "There is a method in the house behind me, which can test what you are suitable for learning, so go in." ”
"Oh", it turns out that this is the place to choose a career, no wonder there was no time to create a character, Zhang Wangxi responded and walked down the stone slab, walking towards the thatched house, and suddenly remembered that he just saw others just pausing on the stone slab and came down, why did it take him so long? Thinking of this, he looked at both sides, and several people who went up to the stone slab with him also walked down, and walked towards the thatched hut in unison, and several of them also looked left and right like himself, obviously having the same idea. On second thought, this is the game world, and it's normal for an NPC to face multiple players at the same time, such as a group of people going to the NPC to get a task or hand in a task, there must be a few words of dialogue, and even show you a cartoon, in the eyes of others, it's over after standing there for a while, no fuss, it seems that you are playing less games to be so rare and weird.
I was thinking about it, but I didn't stop at my feet, and just as I was about to enter the house, I heard a noise from behind: "What are you squeezing, I didn't see everyone queuing!"
"Lao Tzu is crowded, you bite me? Lao Tzu is impatient to wait, so he has to come first!"
Zhang Wangxi looked back, and saw that two tall Caucasian people had already squeezed out of the crowd, and stretched out his hand to pull the person in front of him who was about to walk on the stone slab, it seemed that he wanted to go up to the stone slab first.
"Duh!" The old man Tao behind the table of the eight immortals glanced at the two people, a word popped out of his mouth, and the two white people who had just stretched out their hands "snorted" and disappeared into two clouds of white light, and the old man closed his eyes again, as if nothing had happened. The people who saw the scene were shocked, immediately quieted down, and lined up honestly.
Zhang Wangxi knew in his heart, no wonder the order was so good, it turned out that this old man Tao was still a part-time security guard, I was afraid that when he was queuing in the back before, someone wanted to cut the queue and was beaten back by this old man I don't know which resurrection point, so people lined up so honestly. Some people are quite normal in reality, and they know how to be courteous and courteous, once they are on the top of an ID that no one knows, they will completely become another person, and they will come when they open their mouths with foul language, and they love to kill trumpets and cut passers-by, and they are called "release pressure". Speaking of which, this kind of person is the most real side in the game.
Seeing that the row of people who followed behind had already gotten off the stone slab, Zhang Wangxi didn't think about it anymore, turned around and entered the thatched hut, but don't be beaten to resurrection by the old man Tao "BIU" because he blocked the way of others.
As soon as he entered the house, Zhang Wangxi suddenly felt that his eyes suddenly opened up, looking at the low and dilapidated thatched hut outside, but there was a hole inside, and the size was at least nearly 1,000 square meters! The surrounding walls were no longer stake thatch, but turned into white and smooth stone walls, and the soft fluorescent light emitted from the stone walls illuminated the entire space, obviously this was a space similar to a game copy.
In the middle of the space stood a high platform, which took up more than half of the space, and there was nothing else, not even the people who had entered before, and it was obvious that everyone had entered a separate space. Obviously, this high platform is what Old Man Tao said can test what kind of profession is suitable for practice.
At the moment, I took two steps to the front of the high platform, and saw that the high platform was divided into nine layers, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, like a pyramid, a step went straight to the top, and the surrounding was divided into eight corners, and a stone pillar stood on each corner, and there were two egg-thick railings connected to the middle of the stone pillar. Under a closer look, the crystal stone platform was covered with large and small symbols, and Zhang Wangxi actually recognized a few, exactly the same as what he saw in ancient books, but he didn't know what it meant when he was sandwiched between a large number of unknown symbols.
"It seems that I guessed correctly, this game is Oriental Fantasy, no, even the runes have come out. Zhang Wangxi muttered a sentence and stepped onto the steps. As soon as the two feet stood firmly, they felt a slight warm current rising from the soles of their feet, quickly passing through their legs and reaching their internal organs, and finally even their heads and hands felt a warm warmth, and the whole body was abnormally comfortable, and it seemed that even the pores around the body were opened.
"Huh" Zhang Wangxi said softly, this situation had never happened in the previous game, and he squatted down curiously and touched the stone steps under his feet, his tentacles were slightly cold, and there was no trace of heat.
With curiosity, he climbed the stairs, and each step paused for a moment to experience the feeling coming from the soles of his feet, from the faint warm current at the beginning, to the last layer became an extremely obvious heat flow, and the heat spread throughout Zhang Wangxi's body, making his whole body rise to a sense of dryness.
Nine steps per floor, a total of eighty-one steps, after climbing the last level, Zhang Wangxi found that the top of the stone platform was empty, except for the railing around it, only a yin and yang gossip map was carved on the ground, the picture was full of various runes, and the yin and yang fish in the middle were black and white.
Thinking of Old Man Tao's words, Zhang Wangxi didn't want to think about it, so he stepped on the yin and yang fish in the center of the gossip diagram with both feet, and just stood firm, the gossip diagram lit up one after another, and every time he lit up, there was a trace of heat pouring into his body through his feet, and he disappeared after a week, and after eight times, the scenery in front of him changed, the stone platform disappeared, and the person appeared in the center of a circular field.
The terrain of this field resembles the ancient Colosseum, and there is a one-legged stone table in front of you, on which are lined up with a wooden sword, an iron knife, a cloth robe, and a gourd. It seems that this is the novice equipment, Zhang Wangxi grabbed the cloth robe and put it on, pinned the gourd to his waist, the wooden sword in his left hand, and the iron knife in his right hand, and instantly armed himself. Scanning the surroundings, a circle of eight stone doors was evenly distributed on the circular stone wall, and I didn't know which one to open first for a while.
At this moment, a stone gate rumbled up, and a green beast roared and rushed out, "It seems that you don't have to choose by yourself, it's really a headache to have no hint at all." Zhang Wangxi muttered to himself, and after a closer look, he saw a beast like a wolf and a fox rushing out, with green hair standing up all over his body, and he came straight to himself with his teeth bared, and his head was still on his head - Jungle Fox Wolf.
The wooden sword is inserted into the waist, the iron knife is clenched with both hands, and he is ready for battle, as for why he doesn't use two weapons, one is that the wooden sword looks neither strong nor sharp, I am afraid that the sword will be broken when the sword is cut up, and the power of one hand is wasted to take a broken wooden sword to cut the monster, no matter how it is calculated, the gain outweighs the loss. So why not rush in? Well, somebody thinks it's better to work at ease.
The jungle fox wolf didn't even test, he howled and pounced, and opened his wolf kiss full of fangs and bit Zhang Wangxi's neck, Zhang Wangxi hurriedly took two steps back, and slashed with both hands with a knife. However, he still hid a little slowly, and the fox's wolf's big mouth still bit the placket of the cloth robe, and "hissed" and ripped off one, and at the same time, the iron knife in his hand also slashed the wolf's head, and there was a sound of "dang" in his ears.
Zhang Wangxi was shocked, this wolf's head is really hard, I heard that this canine is a copper-headed iron-bone tofu waist, it seems that it is necessary to attack its weak point, thinking of this, his eyes are aimed at the waist of the fox wolf. Although the fox wolf was slashed on the head with a knife, it was not seriously injured, but also cut its scalp, and a trace of blood slowly oozed out, adding a little more hideous, but it also had a little more scruples, took a few steps back, lowered its body, and stared at the prey in front of it with both eyes, ready to attack.
Just as Zhang Wangxi's eyes moved to the waist of the jungle fox wolf, the fox wolf "swished" out and pounced suddenly. Zhang Wangxi secretly scolded himself "stupid!", you must keep an eye on its eyes to deal with the beast, otherwise the beast will feel that you are afraid and want to escape, and it will naturally rush up, at this time it is too late to hide, so you can only fight with it with your heart.
