forty-one

The light is everywhere, and it should certainly illuminate this filthy sewer.

Now, Ah Xing and I are walking one foot deep and one foot shallow in the black, smelly, dirty sewer. I can't imagine that there are such outrageous places in the game. If I know the ID of the starry sky, I must complain to him! Actually, I regret taking on this task. The aunt who posted the task said that almost everyone who took the task gave up after half an hour. That's why there are so many experience rewards for this quest.

What a wonderful time I had this morning, and in the blink of an eye, I was in such a place!

In the morning, I woke up early in the morning and changed into sportswear to go for a run. Well, I'll admit that I woke up a little early, I had never been in the habit of running in the morning, but since I accidentally heard about Mai Tian running every morning yesterday, I decided to add a morning run to my schedule.

After more than an hour of standing behind a tree in the cold wind, Mai Tian finally appeared in front of the Tiantian supermarket across the street in a dark blue tracksuit. I immediately greeted me with my cold, blue face, sneezing all the way.

I didn't stand in vain for the hour, and when she saw me, surprise was written all over her face.

"Morning......," she greeted me in surprise.

"Early ......" I had planned to say hello first, and I had already thought of a lot of cliché lines.

"Well, did you just get up?" She began to run slowly along the side of the road.

I followed her and replied, "yes, I just ran here and met you so coincidentally." ”

Mai Tian looked at me and said with a smile: "But you don't seem to be exercising at all, and your frozen face is purple." ”

Purple? Isn't it blue? I see, probably because my face was blue from the cold, and it was purple from the red......

"This one...... Actually, I usually exercise a lot, and I can't warm up within 10,000 meters......"

"Huh, huh? Today we will run 10,000 meters. She smiled sweetly.

A smart girl like her must have seen something. However, you want to scare me with 10,000 meters? Sorry, you hit the muzzle of the gun......

When we returned to the door of Tiantian Supermarket again, sweat was already oozing from my forehead. We really ran 10,000 meters, and if it weren't for my good physical fitness, I wouldn't have run to death. However, Mai Tian is also good, there are not many girls who can run 10,000 meters in this era.

"It turns out that you are amazing." She gulped down the fresh air and stood across the street from me from the supermarket.

"That's right, I said 10,000 meters is not enough to run." I said calmly, in fact, I was secretly speeding up my breathing, and seeing that I had reached her door, I asked, "Will you come back tomorrow morning?" ”

Mai Tian nodded, maybe she was really tired of running, and her face was a little red. She turned and walked towards the supermarket, and after just two steps, she turned around.

"Original."

"In!"

"Tomorrow morning at 7 o'clock, don't be late."

"Yes!"

I could already hear what she meant, she told me not to come late, but she told me not to come too early...... What does this mean? She would love to run with me!

Excited, I went for another 10,000 meters, sweating profusely before going home.

Who knows, when I got home and had a bite to eat, I was pulled to a hotel by Ah Xing as soon as I went online. In the hotel, I received this task from a rich aunt in a fur coat. According to the aunt, her wedding ring was accidentally diverted into the sewer and told us to look for it. I admire this task, in the huge underground world, I was asked to find a small ring. What's the difference between this and looking for a needle in a haystack.

Moses was not there, just me and Ah Xing. We pinched our noses and walked down this filthy sewer, looking around.

"I said, how can we find such an intricate sewer?" I asked Ah Xing dissatisfied.

Ah Xing said: "Don't worry, the task of the game is nothing more than killing monsters and running errands. Let's catch a monster and ask if we can't. ”

"It's not that I said, this kind of place doesn't even want monsters to come!" I said it decisively.

I'll admit I was wrong, I just finished saying that. From a dark corner, a washbasin-sized object bounced up, and rushed to my head like an octopus. Fortunately, I reacted quickly, and as soon as I lowered my head, it hugged Ah Xing's face tightly with its suction cup.

Ah Xing screamed indistinctly, and I hurriedly grabbed this strange worm, tore it off with all my might, and threw it into the distance.

As soon as the bug hit the ground, it attacked again, and the damn guy only pounced on the person's face. Luckily, I was quick to pick and poke my spear and pinpoint it to the wall. Ah Xing walked forward quickly and stabbed it to death with a dagger.

"! It's a face-hugging bug! Ah Xing looked at the illustrated book in horror and scolded.

Face hugging bug!! Such a disgusting monster?? I'm starting to understand why no one is taking on this task. This insect lives in dark corners without sunlight all day long, eats rotten sewage to survive, and attacks people by jumping on people's faces and covering you alive, suffocating you to death.

"Come on, let's withdraw too. This is not a task done by people! I said.

"Let's go, go back!" Ah Xing, who had just been hugged in the face, retched again and again.

Just as we were about to return to the surface, a hoarse, excited voice came from deep in the sewers: "It'smyprecious~~~~~"

Kindness? In my mind, I instantly had such an image of a lewd-looking bald goblin looking at a ring in his hand, stroking it back and forth excitedly. That's right, rings! Ah Xing and I glanced at each other, and we ran quickly in the direction of the voice. Illuminated by my prayer aura, we vaguely saw an exit ahead, and we rushed out of it with a quick pace.

"Oops!"

"What's wrong?"

"Didn't you notice we were in the air?"

"Ahh "Ahh With two screams, we fell out of mid-air. Fell into a huge cistern, but fortunately there was no silt in the cistern. We stood up and looked at the huge cistern. On the walls on either side of the cistern were dozens of outlets, and we fell out of one of them. Not far behind us was blocked by a huge iron railing, where the cistern drained.

Just as we were observing our surroundings, a strange sound sounded from inside the hollow water outlet. It was the sound of a bug crawling, so soo. But it wasn't one, and the sound echoed above the huge cistern, uniting into one.

"Over, we've been dumplings." I had a bad premonition.

"Wrong! It's you who gets dumplings. Ah Xing used stealth and disappeared into the darkness.

"Don't bring it like that. You're so unrighteous. "I broke down.

The sound is getting louder and closer. I saw a bunch of insects suddenly spewing out of several water outlets, a large number of face-hugging insects. The bugs sprayed to the ground, and they were dizzy from the fall. I laughed when I saw it.

"You're still laughing at all this situation? It's a man! The invisible Ah Xing gave me a thumbs up.

I took something out of my backpack with a "clang": "Don't forget I still have this!" ”

"I'll go~~~ You don't throw away the broken dinosaur meat, it's all stinky!" Ah Xing shouted.

Yes? I'm sorry to take the wrong one. I tossed the stinking piece of dinosaur meat and pulled a bomb out of my backpack again. That's right, the bomb - Rick Stability Dropping Bomb. When I took out the bomb, the insects that had fainted from the fall woke up and swarmed towards the invisible Ah Xing. What's going on?

I took a closer look, and it turned out that Ah Xing's kid was squatting in front of the piece of dinosaur meat to take a closer look.

"Hey, you said that after this dinosaur meat went bad, why did it turn white." He flicked the piece of meat with his dagger with interest.

"Ah Xing, look around you." I'm understated.

"Damn, help! ~~~~" Ah Xing found the bugs getting closer and closer.

"Don't worry, listen to me. Pick up the piece of meat and throw it out of the iron bar. "I commanded.

According to my analysis, the reason why the face-hugging insects want to besiege Ah Xing is not because of how handsome Ah Xing is, but because the piece of meat is too fragrant. Well, it's for the bugs.

When Ah Xing heard my words, he hurriedly grabbed the piece of meat and threw it towards the drain. Well, the force is big enough, and the throw is accurate enough - it smashed accurately on the iron railing, bounced back and bounced at me, and I actually got it as soon as I reached out.

"Ah Xing, I didn't say you. I've never played baseball, and the meat isn't like this~~~~"

Facing the swarming face-hugging insects, I said calmly. Already a few bugs jumped up and into the air.

"Huh! ~~~~~ it! "I threw the piece of meat out of my hand with all my strength, and the piece flew over the railing and landed downstream of the cistern. All the bugs rushed at the pieces of meat. Even the insects that jumped in the air changed their orbits and shot at the flesh like arrows.

Well, it's completely contrary to the principles of mechanics.

Ah Xing's eyes were dazzled, and he admired me more and more. Actually, I'm also blinded......

I just know that it's useless to be scared in the game. I've figured it out, and in reality, it's just a game.

"Ts! ~", I struck a match and lit the bomb in my hand. The bomb flew out in a trajectory that exactly coincided with the previous piece of meat, and flew towards the large pile of bugs.

"Boom!" A loud explosion echoed throughout the sewer system.
