Chapter 423: The Little Girl in Green
If there is a conflict between two important NPCs in the same faction, it will be a very difficult choice for players, not to mention this kind of blood feud, where one NPC wants to kill the other.
In the face of such a situation, there are only two ways for players to do it, one is to choose to help the two NPCs reconcile, but as far as the current situation is concerned, unless Gangzi is really not killed by the mountain demon, it is impossible for Hu Cang to give up his hand on Zhong Rensan, but from the clues known now, it can be inferred that the probability that Gangzi was killed by the mountain demon is already above ninety percent, and there is basically no other possibility.
Therefore, Liu Xing felt that the best choice for his group at present was to start standing on the side and decide whether his group would stand on Hu Cang's side or Zhong Ren's side.
But it's a very difficult choice.
If you choose to stand on Hu Cang's side, then you must help Hu Cang kill Zhong Rensan, although Zhong Rensan is just an ordinary middle-aged and elderly person, it should be simple and stress-free to kill him, but if you really kill Zhong Rensan, then it is basically impossible for your party to get the jade pendant in Zhong Rensan's hand, because the jade pendant in Zhong Rensan's hand has a special effect of being able to repel insects, and its color and material have already made it valuable, so Zhong Rensan will hide that jade pendant somewhere.
Therefore, only by killing the mountain demon can Zhong Rensan take out the jade pendant, but Liu Xing feels that Hu Cang is now a little blackened, and there is a chance that he will not wait for Zhong Rensan to hand over the jade pendant before making a move, so if he chooses to stand on Hu Cang's side, unless his party can make a successful persuasion judgment on Hu Cang, Hu Cang will definitely do it in advance, because this is also a plot killing.
And if his group chooses to stand on the side of Zhong Rensan, then it will definitely break with Hu Cang, and then his group will be driven out of Hu Cang's house, and as far as the current situation is concerned, Hu Cang's home is the "resurrection point" of his group in this module, every time the time and space are disordered, or if they die unexpectedly, their group will return to Hu Cang's home, then it will be very embarrassing to see Hu Cang, and maybe Hu Cang will be angry with his party and set various traps for his group...
And even if his party is on Zhong Rensan's side, Hu Cang will not choose to give up his plan to kill Zhong Rensan, so unless his party kills Hu Cang, he will have to face Hu Cang's endless pursuit, not to mention Hu Cang and Hu Li, a powerful ally, Liu Xing believes that as long as Hu Cang promises Hu Li to continue the front edge, then Hu Li will definitely turn against him without hesitation.
Therefore, whether it is on Hu Cang's side or Zhong Rensan's side now, there are pros and cons, but as far as the current situation is concerned, Liu Xing is still more inclined to Hu Cang's side, after all, his party has established a cooperative relationship with Hu Cang, and the cooperation between his party and Hu Li is also negotiated by Hu Cang to a large extent, so before he has the strength to confront Hu Li, Liu Xing feels that it is better for his party not to fall out with Hu Cang.
However, Liu Xing also knew that even if his party and Hu Li would help Hu Cang, it would probably not be too easy for Hu Cang to kill Zhong Rensan, after all, Zhong Rensan still had a mountain demon by his side, and that mountain demon should not be able to let Hu Cang kill Zhong Rensan so easily, and who can guarantee that Zhong Rensan has no other backhand?
The most important thing is that Liu Xing can be sure that Zhong Rensan, who is an important NPC of this module, also has a plot line on his body, even if his party asks Hu Cang to kill Zhong Rensan after getting the jade pendant, then this will miss a lot of useful information, and this is still Zhong Rensan's exclusive information.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing felt a little brain pain.
And the current atmosphere is also a little awkward for a while, after all, Zhang Jingxu and others think the same as Liu Xing, and they are also struggling with how to stand in line now.
As for Hu Cang, he looked at Liu Xing and his party with a serious face, wanting to know the choice of Liu Xing and his party.
Liu Xing secretly sighed in his heart, it seems that he has to stand up and take a stand and take a rhythm, after all, in the Cthulhu Run game, the most taboo thing is that the player who should be on the same line is standing on the opposite side.
Therefore, the first person to stand up and make a decision at this time can basically determine the side of others.
So, in order to avoid Zhang Jingxu and others from standing up first, Liu Xing refused to help Hu Cang take revenge on Zhong Rensan, and just when he wanted to speak, he saw a little girl jumping past the door of the clinic.
Little girl?!
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, quickly got up and walked out of the clinic, looked in the direction where the little girl walked over, and found that sure enough, there was a little girl with a double ponytail and wearing green clothes mixed into the crowd.
Liu Xing got up suddenly, but Zhang Jingxu and the others were startled, so Zhang Jingxu said with some doubts: "What's the matter, Meteor classmate, what's the matter with your surprise?" ”
Liu Xing turned around, frowned and said, "I just saw a little girl passing by the door, so I got up and chased it out to take a look, and found that it should indeed be a little girl." ”
Hu Cang raised his eyebrows and said: "What, Mr. Meteor, you are not mistaken, I have been in this time-space-chaotic Panlong Town for so long, except for Hu Li and the proprietress of the black Internet café, I have never seen other women, especially some little girl, there is no such thing as a girl, okay?" So Mr. Meteor, you read that right? ”
Liu Xing nodded seriously and said: "That's right, I'm sure it's a little girl, although what I just saw was just the back, but she was wearing a set of green clothes and a double ponytail, and judging from her body type, it should be a girl, so she is either a little girl or a women's clothing boss." ”
"Women's clothing boss?" Hu Cang said suspiciously.
Liu Xing was stunned for a moment, and then reacted that in the era when Hu Cang entered Panlong Town, the term "women's clothing boss" had not officially become popular, so Hu Cang didn't know what the women's clothing boss meant.
At this time, Zhang Jingxu on the side stood up to relieve Liu Xing, "Mr. Hu Cang, the women's clothing boss is a popular word in the island country of Meteor classmates, which means a man wearing women's clothing. ”
Hu Cang suddenly realized, nodded and said: "I see, but in this way, I heard that there are indeed many children in the town near Panlong Town who are women's clothing bosses, and the reason should all be known, because of family income and patriarchal ideological reasons, some families give birth to boys after giving birth to several daughters, because the family conditions are relatively poor, so they can only give the eldest daughter's previous clothes to the little boy." ”
"But Mr. Meteor, the little girl you see shouldn't be a women's clothing boss, because in my impression, there is no women's clothing boss among the children in Panlong Town, because no boy will have long hair and a double ponytail, and no boy will have a green dress, after all, in Panlong Town in this era, the color of children's clothes is relatively single, basically either black or white."
So, what a little girl, is this?
Liu Xing touched his chin and said, "If this is really a little girl, then I think it is necessary for us to find her now, find a way to find out her identity, and see if she is a native of Panlong Town, or a foreigner who has entered Panlong Town like us." ”
Liu Xing said as he carried Hu Cang behind his back and gave Zhang Jingxu and the others a look.
Zhang Jingxu and the others instantly understood what Liu Xing meant, and knew that Liu Xing was planning to discuss the standing of his group by the way while looking for that little girl, after all, brainstorming.
So, Zhang Jingxu and others stood up one after another, saying that they wanted to go outside to find the little girl.
Because he had to take care of Xiao Mochen, who was still stunned, Hu Cang could only say that he stayed in the clinic.
After leaving the clinic, Liu Xing said: "Zhang Jingxu, what do you think, this time are we on Hu Cang's side, or on Zhong Rensan's side?" ”
Zhang Jingxu said without hesitation: "Of course I am on Hu Cang's side this time, after all, we have a good relationship with Hu Cang, and according to the news you inquired from Hu Li, Zhong Rensan came to Panlong Town in order to find food for the mountain demon, although Zhong Rensan's original intention was to dig up the corpse to provide food for the mountain demon, but because of various force majeure factors, Zhong Rensan still gave the living to the mountain demon as food through various means, so no matter what, Zhong Rensan is a murderer with a lot of crimes. ”
Li Dian nodded, and then said: "That's right, I have the same idea as Zhang Jingxu, although Zhong Risan was killed by his ancestors, so he was entangled by a mountain demon, and finally had to provide food to the mountain demon, because if he didn't provide food to the mountain demon, he would be killed by the mountain demon, but this does not mean that Zhong Resan can persecute other people's lives for the lives of his own family, not to mention that Zhong Resan and his family have gained a lot of benefits, after all, those precious medicinal materials are very valuable." ”
Wan Chongshan sighed, nodded and said: "That's right, poor people must have something to hate, Hu Cang wants to find Zhong Rensan to take revenge, and we have no reason to stop Hu Cang, so I have the same idea as Zhang Jingxu and Li Dian, and stand on Hu Cang's side." ”
Seeing this situation, Liu Xing said with a smile: "In this case, it seems that we are already on the same front, I think the same as you, it is better to stand on Hu Cang's side, but we still have a problem to solve, that is, the jade pendant in Zhong Rensan's hand." ”
Zhang Jingxu frowned, and said: "This is a bit troublesome, the piece of jade pendant in Zhong Rensan's hand is very important to us, after all, if we want to deal with that Cha Kang... Uh, that's the Chaxi in your mouth, if you don't have that jade pendant, I'm afraid we won't all be able to pull Chaxi to die together, after all, those Gu envoys in the Miao Jiang region are more difficult than the other, and for a while, I also thought of any way to restrain the Gu envoys, because I had never encountered a Gu envoy before... ”
Liu Xing nodded and said seriously: "Alas, since even Zhang Jingxu said so, then we must get the jade pendant, so although we have to stand on Hu Cang's side, we must also get the jade pendant first, and then let Hu Cang go to take revenge on Zhong Rensan, so after we go back later, we will make our position clear to Hu Cang, and try to let Hu Cang first ensure that he will not rashly scatter his hands on Zhong Ren." ”
Zhang Jingxu and the others nodded, indicating that they agreed with Liu Xing's idea.
At this time, Liu Xing's eyes saw the little girl in green again.
Because the little girl in green blended into the crowd again, Liu Xing didn't have time to tell Zhang Jingxu and the others, so he hurriedly chased after the little girl in green.
And Zhang Jingxu and the others watched Liu Xing suddenly run up, and knew that Liu Xing saw the little girl in green, so they also ran with Liu Xing.
Finally, in front of a stall selling popcorn, Liu Xing finally caught up with the little girl in green.
However, the moment he saw the little girl in green, Liu Xing was stunned for a moment, to put it simply, this little girl in green is really beautiful, like a porcelain doll, and there is a trace of fairy spirit, which makes Liu Xing's idea of "three years of blood earning" fleeting, replaced by an inexplicable sense of worship.
At this time, Liu Xing smelled a strange fragrance from the little girl in green, some like flowers, and some like the fragrance of grass.
Therefore, to sum up, Liu Xing can be sure that this little girl in green is a mythical creature, and even has some doubts that this little girl in green will be the incarnation of Nyara Totip.
At this time, Zhang Jingxu and others also chased after him.
Like Liu Xing, the moment they saw the little girl in green, Zhang Jingxu and the others were also shocked, and then when they came back to their senses, they all took a step back.
After all, this little girl in green is not a human at first glance, so it is better to be careful.
At that moment, the little girl in green pointed to the popcorn and said, "I want this." ”
Liu Xing and the others looked at each other, and then Zhang Jingxu came forward, bought a bag of popcorn and handed it to the little girl in green.
Then, Zhang Jingxu smiled and said to the little girl in green: "Hello, little sister, I see that you are like this, you should not be a native of Panlong Town." ”
The little girl in green nodded, and said with a smile: "Of course, I am definitely not from Panlong Town, because I am not human at all." ”
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect this little girl in green to be so upright, and she directly admitted that she was not human...
Zhang Jingxu smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Little sister, you are really joking." ”
The little girl in green shook her head and said seriously, "I'm not joking. ”
