Chapter 255: The main quest that gradually became clear
Clown Emperor this guy didn't go online for two days.,And I also brushed the level for two days with peace of mind.,Lao Bai because he accidentally got an experience point bonus.,So the level rose faster than me.,At 1 o'clock the next night, I have successfully rushed to level 67 More than half of the experience,And I also rushed to level 68 and 47% more experience points.,Now I'm ranked third in the level list.,Old white is 8th.。
From the beginning of the third day, the Clown Emperor was finally launched.
"Ghost Ao main quest?!"
When I said this, he suddenly got up, and his face was very displeased.
Lao Bai and I looked at each other, and neither of us knew what was going on.
I saw the Clown Emperor biting his lip and staring at me, a little angry and a little helpless.
“…… Bastard, let you get on the ...... first" This guy cursed me angrily, then forced a sigh of anger, adjusted his demeanor, raised his lazy eyelids and asked, "Do you know, why did I go to Yinxian Village last time?" ”
"Oh?" Hearing him say this, I suddenly remembered that after saving Brother Yun in Yinxian Village last time, I met this guy by chance, and he was still mysterious and refused to tell me the reason at that time.
"What? Could it be that you are the owner of the main story of Ghost Ao during the closed beta period? So you're going back to look for Meime? ”
The guess was confirmed, and he nodded unwillingly.
Lao Bai didn't know about my private relationship with the Clown Emperor, so in his opinion, the Clown Emperor was already furious, so he hurriedly picked up the glass on the wine table and wanted to play a round: "Don't say it, don't say it, what are our brothers, come on, drink and drink!" ”
The Clown Emperor just smiled and glanced at him, and then responded lightly with a sentence of "not in the mood", Lao Bai kindly relieved the atmosphere, but was just hung there, embarrassed and overwhelmed, he could only cough dryly, and then drank it himself.
Seeing that these two people were a little stiff, I didn't want the plan to be dispersed before it started, so I smiled: "Alas, what are you doing?" We're teammates, sit down, sit down, talk. ”
The Clown Emperor gave me face, didn't say anything, just sat down silently, stared at the table with his hands crossed, and said: "During the internal beta period, the task I did was related to the ghost ao, but it was completely different from your plot, my task plot at that time was already the seal painter to seal the ghost ao, but the chain seal was needed to completely cut off all the connection between it and heaven and earth, that is, to isolate it in the enchantment outside the Three Realms, at that time, in order to collect all the rare herbs needed, I traveled through mountains and rivers to find all the human and beast territories, and it took a month and a half to collect them all...... ”
"Wait a minute!" Before he could finish, I reached out and interrupted him, "...... Among the herbs you collect, there is a taste called ...... Escapist? ”
"Huh? How do you know? Quests also let you collect? ”
"No, no ......, just ask."
I cleared my throat and returned to the seriousness I had just now: "Okay, don't talk about anything else, I came to you today, I just want to analyze and analyze the next task together, I have now received the material collection task of the Sealing Painter to draw the map of the Poisonous Insect Valley, which can be said to have no eyebrows at all now, so I can only take one step at a time to see the ......, but recently I turned to the map on the edge of the Imperial City to farm monsters, and I happened to take this task, don't tell me the number of unjust souls, don't tell me what it looks like, the ghost world is so big, where is this needle in a haystack." , this is the Galaxy Rice! ”
Lao Bai put down the wine glass, filled it for me, and poured it into his own cup: "Don't be so discouraged, this kind of task must be rich if you think about it with your toes, and you can really complete it in two steps, then others are still playing fart." ”
Although this is true, people are like this, and when they encounter difficult setbacks, there will always be negativity.
Just when Lao Bai and I clinked glasses and lamented that the system task egg hurt, the clown emperor suddenly looked up at the two of us coldly, as if he had some insight.
"No, it's not that the task is not detailed, it's that you didn't find a clear clue yourself."
"Oh?" This statement is novel, and I hurriedly asked: "Then you analyze and analyze, what clues did I not notice?" ”
"As you said, there was a mission brief in the previous mission that was very clear, explaining why the character of Anji was sealed in Yinsen, and it was his idea to let the army attack the dragon vein of Zhensoul Mountain in three ways; And you have also seen that if he was really sealed with the [Covering the Sky Night], then the seal of the city lord's death should have been lifted a long time ago, and the line after the saint's intention to lift the relics of the soldiers is very crucial. ”
Hearing him say this, I quickly recalled my previous experience, and the conversation with Anji reappeared in my mind, lingering on the faint murmur of the Holy Decree.
"Anji......, why are you bothering? ……”
Lao Bai suddenly came to his senses: "Oh, I understand, the Clown Emperor means that the seal is not the seal of the city lord, but the seal made of the souls of the soldiers, the purpose is to let An Si atone for their sins who died in vain." ”
The Clown Emperor nodded: "That's right, this line is very meaningful, and the brief description of the ghost turtle's mission only describes it like this, 'Those who were killed by it have become souls that cannot be transcended, Wandering in the ghost world and can't go through reincarnation', according to me, the real reason why they can't get out of it is not because they were killed by the ghosts, but because they were used to seal Anji, and now the mission requires us to help the scattered souls escape into reincarnation, so as to unlock the seal on Anji, then you might as well think about it, since the city lord feels sorry for those unjust souls, why don't you let them re-enter the reincarnation? Instead, use them as a sealing medium? Isn't that a slap in the face? ”
I immediately added, feeling that my thoughts had begun to be a little abrupt: "The city lord at that time must have his intentions in doing this, unless there is a compelling reason, there is no need to do such a unconscionable thing." ”
"Then it can be inferred like this," the Clown Emperor stretched out his hand and counted them one by one with his fingers: "These dead armies may really not be able to enter the reincarnation, but if they can't enter the reincarnation, they will be wiped out, and the city lord has restrained them in the seal, just to prevent them from dispersing, until later people break the seal and help them enter the reincarnation by the way; And now these ghosts are like countless rivers flowing down from the mountains, and it is difficult to find them one by one; But if we can find the source directly along one of the rivers, we can naturally get twice the result with half the effort, and now, one of them has been found by Xiaoyu. ”
With that, the Clown Emperor looked at me with a confident smile on his face.
"The river ...... is Ansi; The source ......"
Suddenly, it dawned on me, "The source is the action they took before they died, that is, the dragon vein of the Soul Town!" ”
Lao Bai gave me a thumbs up and praised my cleverness.
But the joy didn't last for a while, and a lot of questions followed, "Although the inference is very clear, but now that Anji's soul is gone, only an unconscious body remains, and if you want to get clues from him, you have to break the seal; But if you want to break the seal, you have to get clues from him, isn't this a dead end? ”
"Alas......" The Clown Emperor touched his forehead helplessly, and sighed in disappointment, "Say that you are good, you can make yourself dizzy...... the city lord is dead, Anji is faint, the current imperial city does not necessarily know these things, at first glance, it seems that the person who knows the dragon vein is indeed gone, but can you think about it carefully, will the mission set up such a mentally retarded bridge to play with the player's hard work?" Interlocking, do you understand? ”
Seeing that the more I thought about it, the tighter my brows became, but Lao Bai couldn't stand it anymore: "It's so obvious, what do you think, you change your mind, if you met An Si first, then where did you complete the task of finding the relics of the soldiers before?" ”
"Where else can I go? Don't you have to go back to the village elder to take over the task of fighting ghosts......" I replied casually, and they looked at me with relief.
Uh-huh??
Village Chief!
I'll go, I'll ride a donkey to find a donkey!"
"Alas......, being surpassed by Xiaoyu's goods, why am I so unwilling?"
"Coincidentally, I think so too."
"Don't talk about it, cheers for the two of us."
"Bosom friend, cheers."
The two of them who were not right just now, they drank without saying a word, obviously they had formed a team and PK together before, and they were not so used to it, but they suddenly had a common topic in criticizing me, and they looked like they hated to see each other.
"Alas, Clown Emperor, you stayed up so late before, did you get any treasures in the Rock Hell Palace?"
As I was chatting, I suddenly asked curiously, he just shook his head, but nodded again, "The boss didn't take my turn, and I don't know which ...... was cheaper, but the reason why I didn't have time to care about the boss was because I found the treasure room." ”
"! Then you're rich! ”
"It's not enough to get rich, but I got a pet egg and two skill books, and the rest is just some garbage equipment and gold coins."
It's not called ???
I envy you both and want to give you two big mouths.
I really found the right person to find him today, and the three of them rushed to Yinxian Village together without further ado.
"Oh? Why are you kid asking this? ”
The village chief was still there watering the flowers with his hands behind his back, as elegant as ever, Lao Bai and the Clown Emperor were playing chess at the table over there, and I came over to ask for clarification.
"Of course, it's for the purpose of slaying demons! The junior has already found someone who can draw a map, but the materials are still missing and have not been collected, and I suspect that there should be relevant clues in the dragon vein of Zhensoul Mountain, so I want to look for it. ”
Hearing me say this, the village elder finally stopped the pouring in his hand and looked back at me: "Well, yes, you kid has a heart, I know a little about the dragon vein, but it's just a legend of a few words, if you want to really find it, you need to uncover the truth yourself." ”
"But it doesn't hurt for you to say that."
The village chief pondered for a moment, stroked his snow-white beard and looked at the sky, his expression was very serious: "Yinxian Village is built on the eye of the vein, but the real location of the dragon vein is not necessarily here, and the specific location is still only known to one person. ”
"Holy Venerable?"
"Yes, it's the master you met, and the person who has crossed paths with him is just you, if you have to talk about it, the opportunity to enter is only the closest to you, and the rest, the old man doesn't know."
What to ask, there is no more to say, goodbye to the village chief, the three of them just walked out of the courtyard, Lao Bai couldn't wait to ask: "What do NPCs say?" ”
I told them about the situation, and the three of them fell into deep thought again.
"Otherwise, ......, Xiaoyu, you will go to the Celestial Master's Tomb again?"
"Phew! You can come up with this bad idea, that's my house? I can go if I want? ”
I have begun to be numb to Lao Bai's inattention, and scolding him is light.
"Didn't you say before that there was a jade pendant and a ...... Absolutely unauthored? Still not there? Hearing the Clown Emperor ask, I suddenly remembered that the general's cloth was also in his backpack at that time, and when I took it out, the handwriting on it was still intact.
……
"The weather is dry and the water is dry, and the Zhensoul Mountain is approaching, but the surrounding area is getting hotter, and the sergeants are exhausted and it is difficult to hold ......"
"Tens of thousands of enemy insects, General Xi led the army to intercept in order to save his life, but he did not return, and more than 1,000 soldiers were killed and wounded, when can he return to ......?"
"The town soul mountain has arrived, the ghost ao has poured out of the nest, the mountain is wide, more than thousands of miles, the military order is in the body, don't dare not obey the ......"
"The night is cold, only more than 100 soldiers survived, and everyone returned in triumph when they were recruited, and now they are lost in their mountains, and the way back is boundless, I am ashamed ......"
"The ghost is coming for nine days, the insects are dispatched, we stick to this cave, I don't know what life and death are? If you are fortunate enough to return, I am willing to resign and return to my hometown to support my father and mother......"
……
"Yes, they were ordered to rush to the Dragon Vein, if nothing else, they should have arrived near the Dragon Vein, and it was also written, 'The weather is dry and the water is dry...... 'Feeling hot' and 'night cold', which not only briefly describes the environment near the dragon vein, but also shows that the temperature difference between day and night in that place is very large, but also explains that 'Soul Mountain is coming', indicating that the place just described is not the place on Soul Mountain, but on the way to Soul Mountain, we can try to ask NPCs to see if there is a place with a similar climate there, other clues are not needed for the time being, you might as well start here. ”
More and more, I began to find myself aware of the gap between me and the Clown Emperor, his attention to detail was terrifying, and these lines seemed to me to be just a pendant story like a background, but he always found something useful in it.
This game is really not as simple as it seems on the surface, every bit of it is a detail that can withstand scrutiny.
For the specific scope of Zhensoul Mountain, I still have to go back and ask the village elder, and he can say one or two clues about this clue, and at the same time called the exorcist total, and told me everything the two of them knew, according to what they said, we roughly know the rough coordinate distance, and then just draw a straight line according to the two locations of the Imperial City - Hidden Line Village, and the location of the correct distance in the middle should be the place described by the general.
Came to the location in the coordinates, this is a novice village called [Taowan Village], and I inquired with many NPCs in the village that there is indeed such a place nearby.
And this place, we are still very familiar with.
"Mom, we should have thought of it a long time ago, the person who once sealed the ghost turtle can be regarded as finding it now."
Lao Bai's admiration was unanimously agreed by me and the Clown Emperor, and when I saw the scene in front of me, everything made sense.
Being able to seal the natural disaster of the ghost ao alone, and having a close connection with the Soul Town, and also knowing where the dragon veins are, only he can have all the conditions at the same time.
In the distance, the majestic mountain peaks stand.
[Tomb of the Celestial Master].
The person who seals the ghost ao, the holy venerable of Qiankun.
