Volume 1 Searching for Ruins in Troubled Times Chapter 30 Black and White Compass
Xuzhou, Guangling County Administration, Guangling City!
In a rather luxurious private room, a lot of things are staggered here!
"Come, come, come! This glass of wine, I salute Brother Xinghuo, brother, you are faithful to the city, and you are not afraid of the current disaster, you are really a big husband! A military general with medium stature and dark skin spoke, and the wine glass in his hand was full of salute to Xu Yang.
This military general is called Lu Houfeng, and he is the one who used the Xuanhua Axe against Xu Yang before. Don't look at this person's small size, but his strength has reached the spirit level, and his kung fu is even better, and commanding the cavalry to fight can be said to be invincible. And most of the caravans of the Lu family in Yangzhou and Xuzhou are so safe because of the protection of this Lu Houfeng.
Xu Yang also respectfully picked up the wine glass, and then drank all the wine in the cup and said: "Where is it, my little effort can't enter the eyes of Brother Lu." I just hope that one day my strength will improve, and then I will ask Brother Lu for advice! ”
Things were as Xu Yang expected, from last night's hidden weapon shooting into the room where he was resting, to today's daytime cavalry robbery caravan, all of this was written and directed by the Lu family. As for the purpose, as soon as Xu Yang came to his senses, Steward Lu and Xu Yang explained it clearly.
The Lu family's business is more in Xuzhou and Yangzhou, and this time they nominally hired a team to protect the caravan, but in fact, they were entrusted by the silver-armored young general to test Xu Yang. If Xu Yang really chose to leave when he saw the cavalry during the day, then the Lu family would not blame him, but they would still give him an escort fee. However, Steward Lu will truthfully report this matter to the young general of Silver Armor, and now Xu Yang is not only not cowardly, but also fought to the last moment, and the meaning of this is self-evident.
This banquet was a slight expression of Steward Lu's heart, and it could be regarded as an apology for Xu Yang for concealing the facts. Xu Yang is naturally willing to form this good fate with the Lu family, after all, the strength of the Lu family in Jiangnan is not weak, and if Xu Yang's guess is good, this Lu family is afraid that it will be that person's family!
How did Xu Yang break this bureau? Then we have to start with the letter that was shot into Xu Yang's room, there is nothing wrong with the content in my heart, but the way of threatening is too inclined to NPC forces. Let Xu Yang's body be in a different place? The only person who can threaten Xu Yang like this is the person who thinks that Xu Yang is an NPC, which means that the person who threatens must be an NPC, which makes Xu Yang think that this may be a hidden mission.
Thinking that it was an NPC's task, rather than a player's conspiracy, Xu Yang's thinking naturally relaxed. Thinking of the previous Silver Armor Junior General, he suddenly issued a mission to himself to protect the Lu family's caravan, and how could such a large-scale Lu family not have the power to escort the caravan? There were doubts in it, and seeing Steward Lu's dedicated acting skills this morning, he still gave himself a little hint of leaving at the last moment, which made Xu Yang extremely sure that this was a task.
can think that all this is due to Xu Yang's skill of returning to the sky, in the eyes of all NPCs, he is an authentic NPC, an aboriginal force. It is precisely with such a special identity that Xu Yang can easily approach these NPCs and let these NPCs reveal some of their careful thoughts. I have to say that Xu Yang bet right, tonight's banquet is Xu Yang's first harvest, and he has won the favor of the Lu family!
Bite! System Prompt: Congratulations on completing the hidden mission "The Temptation of the Silver Armor Youngster", and gaining the Lu family's favorability +100, Lu Xin and Lu Houfeng have become close friends with you!
As soon as the banquet was underway, Xu Yang heard a system prompt, it can be said that even if the Lu family does not give any remuneration this time, it is enough for Xu Yang to earn just by climbing to a big family in the south of the Yangtze River! Xiang Fu was naturally present during the banquet, and he had a meal with Lu Houfeng, the two had similar personalities, and there was a feeling of hating each other.
That night, when the banquet was gone, Xu Yang didn't wait for the silver armor general, and he was a little depressed in his heart. Originally, I thought that such a big pit was dug by the silver armor general, how can I say that even if he doesn't come to serve tonight, he should show his allegiance! However, before leaving, Lu Xin said one thing to Xu Yang, that is, the silver armor general should be waiting for him near Mingyue Village, and he already knew about this matter, as long as he went back, the silver armor general would definitely give himself an explanation!
Although Xu Yang was a little slanderous about this news, he also smiled and agreed to Lu Xin's departure. And Nima confessed a fart, you just recognize me and my lord, if you don't have a heart loyal to me, why don't you have to play with me like a fool here! These words are just Xu Yang thinking in his heart, no matter what, he can't expose the mind of this kind of player, otherwise he may not want to recruit a good general in his life.
In "Firmament", it is not impossible to recruit any general, the key depends on what means you use. Of course, the difficulty of this recruitment will be determined according to the ability of the general, and some generals are strictly protected by the system before some designated plots have not started. For example, now, there are many players who want to blend into the yellow scarf, meet Zhang Jiao and tell him the precautions of the uprising, and how to lay it out later, but is the system stupid?
This answer is absolutely no, if you are an ordinary player who has nothing, you just want to mix with Zhang Jiao, then I'm sorry, it is estimated that Zhang Jiao, the old god stick, can make you unable to go online for more than ten days! Don't doubt it, you just can't get online! Although the current Zhang Jiao has not yet reached the peak of his strength, he is definitely an existence that a player cannot provoke.
Putting aside these haves and nots, Xu Yang and the others stayed at the inn arranged by the Lu family that night. Bored at night, Xu Yang naturally cultivated his own Infernal Dafa, and waited until tomorrow morning to say goodbye to the people of the Lu family and returned to his Mingyue Village as soon as possible! After all, it has been four days since he left the village, although Mo Rufeng helped take care of the affairs in the village, but that guy was not much in the village, saying that there was a beautiful women's union in Haiyan County.
In order to prevent Xu Yang's forces from clashing with this beauty union in Haiyan County in the future, he definitely personally entered the union to find out the news for Xu Yang! In this regard, if Xu Yang believed him, he would have a ghost, but he did not stop Xu Mo from going to Haiyan County. Although this kid doesn't seem to be very reliable, Xu Yang is still very trustworthy in the face of big rights and wrongs, and if he can find his true love on this trip, Xu Yang will also be happy to see it!
The time for cultivation always passes quickly, and Xu Yang has also seen this sentence in many novels. But when he really fell into that kind of cultivation state, Xu Yang knew that TM was all a lie! Cultivation requires oneself to guide the true qi of the exercises in one's body to flush one's meridians according to a fixed route, and the whole process is carried out in a highly concentrated state of mind, and in this state, it is not that time passes quickly, but that it feels slower than normal!
"Could this be caused by the peculiarities of Infernal Dafa? Or are all fantasy novels deceptive? Xu Yang, who heard the rooster crow outside the door, asked himself a little confused.
However, after thinking about it for a long time, I didn't figure it out, so I was ready to get up and say goodbye to Steward Lu and the others!
Before leaving, Lu Xin gave Xu Yang 1,000 gold and a skill book as the employment fee for this time. This cost can be described as a lot, you must know that a fifth-order soldier is only 10 gold a piece to buy in the county, and although he brought a sixth-order soldier this time, there are only 50 people, and he only fought some bandits and bandits in three days, and there is no loss at all. Of course, Xu Yang understood a large part of the funds as Lu Xin's apology to him, after all, it is not good for businessmen to deceive people.
Xu Yang didn't think much about the 1,000 gold and accepted it directly, and then strode onto the teleportation array back to Lou County. This time, the teleportation array was not consumed by Xu Yang himself, but by the Lu family, otherwise Xu Yang would rather march back with the troops himself, after all, 50 gold is also a lot of money, enough to support the development of the village for a while.
Xu Yang looked at the skill book lying in his backpack, and the joy in his heart was uncontrollable! It seems that the Black Wind Cottage on the side of Mingyue Village has a solution, and when he goes back, Lao Tzu will come to the meeting with his second master Guan to see what you thieves are capable of!
Bite! System Prompt: Do you want to learn Skill Surrender?
"Learn!"
Does this need to be asked? Surrender technique, that is definitely the biggest killing move in the duel, a surrender technique, a large number of their own people appeared in the opposing army, how comfortable is this battle. is in the YY himself after the encounter of a plot battle, in the army of millions of people to use a surrender technique, then he is not a point to the hand cramps, but when he saw the explanation of the trick surrender technique, Xu Yang suddenly turned into a frosted eggplant, completely wilted!
Surrender: Battlefield skills, used on all enemies in the designated area, there is a certain chance that the enemy will defect, each ordinary villager needs to consume 1 silver coin, recruit a fourth-order ordinary soldier needs 10 silver coins, a fifth-order ordinary soldier needs 1 gold coin, a sixth-order soldier needs 10 gold coins, and so on. Note: The amount of gold consumed to use it in non-combat conditions is halved, and the more famous the village the lord is, the greater the success.
Is this skill good? Good! Strong or not powerful? Very powerful! But according to Xu Yang's original thoughts, shouldn't this surrender technique be able to persuade people to his own camp with his own mouth? But after seeing this skill, Xu Yang knew that there was still money to be spent on it. This is a typical mouth-to-mouth and money-giving ah! However, considering that the price he recruited seemed to be one-tenth of the purchase of soldiers in the city, Xu Yang was also relieved.
However, Xu Yang's peace of mind did not last long, and when the game was half a year later, Xu Yang found out that the original "Firmament" game deliberately raised the price of soldiers tenfold at the beginning, and it was not until later that it gradually calmed down! Of course, that's all for later.
After the teleportation array returned to Lou County, Xu Yang asked Xiang Fu to take 50 sixth-order Praetorian Guards back to Mingyue Village, while he put on a mysterious black cloak and went to the market to start Taobao! More than ten days have passed in the game, and now players generally have the strength of fourth-order soldiers, so there are also a lot of treasures on the market. However, there are some ways in this, and Xu Yang, as a person who can rank fifth on the list of Chinese people, is naturally well versed in this!
After spending most of the day shopping around the Louxian market, Xu Yang saw that he still had more than 2,000 gold in his account in Mingyue Village to squander, and he couldn't help but feel like a local tyrant. This is why he relied on the black gold token of the first village in the world, plus the 1,000 gold that Lu Xin had just given to have such a huge amount of money. It is precisely because of so many huge sums of money that Xu Yang has the idea of wanting to come to the market for consumption!
Suddenly, Xu Yang was attracted by a stall. There's a very interesting thing there, a black and white compass, and the name of this item is called the Black and White Compass!
Black and White Compass (Gambling Items): You can pre-set two correspondences and rotate the black and white compass. The result of the black and white compass will affect the probability of the next related event, and each use costs 100 gold coins, which can be used once a day!
This is a somewhat vaguely described item, but the point is that you can use it to make decisions, such as if you are going to gamble. Then next time you can set your win or loss on both sides of the black and white compass, and if the rotation of the black and white compass is a win, then you can go bold and press! Of course, this thing only talks about the probability of affecting the next event, as for whether it can be completely affected, it doesn't say!
Such a vague description also corresponds to the identity of this compass gambling prop, and everything is gambling. However, Xu Yang, who had the technique of surrendering, thought of a crazy idea the moment he saw this black and white compass, and this idea lingered in his mind!
"Boss, how about I want this compass for 500 gold coins?" Xu Yang walked to the booth and said aimlessly.
But when he saw the identity of the boss, Xu Yang was depressed! I rub, the world is so big, how can I only meet him! And the boss who raised his head was also stunned when he saw Xu Yang, I wiped it, the world is really small, every time I have something, I can meet this guy!
The owner of this stall is none other than Leng Feng. Before, this guy Lou County sold a good internal exercise method, and Xu Yang still needed this thing very much at that time, so he gave a more pertinent price, but at that time, Leng Feng felt that this internal exercise book should be sold at a better price in the early stage, so he didn't sell it to Xu Yang.
"Forget it, since it's you, I won't buy it! You sell your 1000 gold coins slowly! As soon as Xu Yang saw Leng Feng, he gave up the idea of continuing to buy this thing, this Leng Feng is a profiteer as a whole, as long as the thing is in his hands, then this goods is definitely a treasure.
If you give 1000, he will ask for 1500, and if you give 1500, he will ask for 3000. Typical pulling and not going backwards, such a person is the person Xu Yang hates the most - there is no one!
"Wait...... 500 gold, I'll sell you ......" Seeing Xu Yang turn around to leave, Leng Feng instantly stood up and shouted.
