Volume 1 Never by a Sword Chapter 5 Eggs

The shuttle sounded in the grass, and a poisonous snake scurried out. It raised its small triangular head and looked at Tu Shi warily.

Same beginning, different ending.

At the moment when the poisonous snake raised its head, Tu Shi stabbed its exposed neck with a sword. The sword was fast, accurate, and ruthless, and it didn't have time to react with the viper's excellent dynamic vision, and it was stabbed to the ground by a sword. Tu Shi understood after suffering a few times that when the poisonous snake appeared, there would be a shuttle sound, and if he didn't notice it, he couldn't blame the system for not giving a hint; And when the poisonous snake raises its head, it is a flaw, you must seize the opportunity, you can't wait two or three seconds before attacking, otherwise the snake will dodge.

The viper was poked to the ground by the sword, and its long round body writhed wildly. After all, the novice uses a wooden sword, which is not sharpened, and the poisonous snake is only injured and not killed even if it is poked seven inches, and at this time it can be seen that the player's wit is coming: some grab the snake tail and throw it hard, and then kill the snake skeleton to be scattered; Some stomp on the snake's head with their feet, which can also cause damage; Some of them don't know where to pick up a knife, although it is small, it is better than a metal product, and it is more than enough to cut a snake's head. Tu Shi took out a stone from the storage bag, pressed the snake body with a sword in his right hand, and smashed the snake's head with a stone in his left hand. Scavenge the corpse and get a "snake gall".

Snake gall bladder: sweet, slightly bitter, cool, and cannot detoxify snake venom. It can be used in daily life (raw materials for pharmaceuticals, spirit refining, etc.). After use (oral), it can reduce the "immobilization" state by one second.

Tu Shi was not interested in pharmaceuticals, so he sold them all to the physician Huo Xiang. Suddenly, there was a sound behind him, and a poisonous snake appeared. He was still squatting, his head didn't return, his left hand spread back, and his palm was almost handed to the snake letter. The viper bent violently, coiled up, and observed the abrupt hand in disbelief. Tu Shi stood up at this time, he used his left hand to attract the attention of the poisonous snake, and with a sword stab in his right hand, he got another one. Here's a trick he stumbled upon: the gloves he wears can deter poisonous snakes.

Leather gloves: [Material] Sheep leather, linen, [Other Materials] wool, [Length] 20cm, [Width] 10cm, [Height] 1-5cm, [Volume] 300cm³, [Weight] 884.8g, [Density] 0.79g/ cm³, [Condition] Semi-old, [Maker] Unknown, [Remarks] Stained with realgar smell.

It's not that there are no leather gloves sold in the village, and the attribute data is exactly the same as this one in Tu Shi's hand, but there are discrepancies in the detailed attributes. There are so many leather gloves, only this one is stained with the smell of realgar, and only this one can repel snakes. Snake repellent, what a useful ability, but the system is not clearly written on the equipment attributes, which shows that this is also part of the "player's own exploration".

In addition to the two knacks of holding gloves and mastering the timing of his shots, Tu Shi's ability to kill snakes is largely due to his ability to identify the weaknesses of poisonous snakes. Snakes have weaknesses (three-inch and seven-inch), which doesn't require any game cheats, but anyone with common sense knows it. As long as you avoid the pounce of the poisonous snake and hit its vital point, then no matter how poisonous the poisonous snake is, it can only become a dead snake. Mastering this trick, Tu Shi quickly rose to level 3. However, a new problem arises: after level 3, the experience provided by the poisonous snake is slightly insufficient, and the level begins to rise, and it is easy to be poisoned if you continue to travel to a place where the poisonous snake is dense, resulting in low leveling efficiency. As soon as the old players saw this situation, they knew that it was time to change to a higher-level monster to fight.

Tu Shi walked back and met Bao Changfeng Youjing.

Chief: "Boy, didn't Chai Hu give you a stick?" A stick is longer than a sword, it can pull grass to explore the way, and it can strike first, isn't it more convenient to beat a snake with a stick? ”

Tu Shi: "No! I will never use any weapon other than a sword! ”

Chief: "Oh? I can't see it, you're still a little angry! ”

Tu Shi: "Because using a sword is more handsome than using a stick!" ”

Chief: "......"

Tu Shi found Orion again, handed in the task of "killing poisonous snakes", and asked, "Brother Chai, can you always lend me the weapon this time?" ”

Chai Hu looked Tu Shi up and down, probably evaluating Tu Shi's grade, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's okay." This hunting knife is for you. ”

"Is there a sword?"

"Huh."

There is no real time in the game, and you can only guess based on the sky. Now that the sun is setting and dusk, Tu Shi estimated that it was already dinner time, so he chose to go offline. After going offline, I felt that my lower body was a little strange, and Tu Shi suddenly woke up: I held too much urine! When players play the game of Qiankun, it is equivalent to light sleep, and they will not feel the urge to urinate during this period.

It's a bit inconvenient to not see the time when playing! A game jointly created by online game giants from various countries, it is impossible that no one has taken into account the built-in clock. In pursuit of realism, is "Qiankun" putting the cart before the horse?

In addition, Tu Shi also pondered that the taste is coming, level 1-3 is still relatively fast, but this speed is also based on the player's mastery of attack and dodge skills, or the player's playing style of exchanging death for experience. Players who don't choose either method may not have reached level 3 yet. This is different from any online game Tu Shi has played, some online games after you build a character, just the system takes a shining arrow and points you to do this and there, you can continuously upgrade to level 5 or 6, and you can also open a novice treasure chest.

Is there a similar task in "Qiankun" that can be accomplished overnight? It is possible that there is, but it is not easy to receive. NPCs are all intelligent, with personalities and temperaments, and the interaction between players and NPCs affects a lot of things, which is "intimacy" in numerical terms. If you respect an NPC, he will give you a task, if you don't respect an NPC, then you can consider using force to make him submit, but when you can use force to submit an NPC, you generally don't care about the tasks they can provide.

Such a real game...... It's very interesting!

In order to seize the time to practice, Tu Shi had already agreed with his family that he would not go home for dinner today. He went downstairs to grab a quick snack and hurriedly went online after eating.

It was getting late, and every house was lit up. With nowhere to stay, the players sit in the open space in the village, like a group of unemployed vagrants. There was a loud chatter complaining: "I said that I could buy something to eat with money, where to buy it!" The village is like a slum, there is not even a restaurant! You say, don't you? ”

The last question was Tu Shi, who smiled and nodded. In other online games, there are pharmacies and weapon stores in the novice village, and the novice village of "Qiankun" does not even have complete functional NPCs. In this regard, Qiankun is not a qualified online game, but it instead creates a realistic, low-productivity ancient country, where people work at sunrise and rest at sunset, living in their own acres and thirds of land, living a poor and boring life.

At this moment, Feng Youjing, the chief of the security department with a few young men, appeared with a pot of noodles and cakes, and shouted with a blowing beard and glaring: "Come over for dinner!" ”

The dough cake is a copper coin, and you can recover 50 satiety after eating, and the amount is enough, but the taste and texture are not good. So the loud voice complained again: "Is this for people to eat!" ”

"It's fine." Tu Shi took a bite of the dough cake, ate the sand with a click, still very happy, and replied to the man with a smile: "Can you feel the taste of the previous online games?" Besides, this cake is unpalatable because it's cheap, and we can eat it when we get out of the novice village! ”

"Friend, you are so optimistic, you can still laugh among so many people!" The loud voice shook his head, not knowing whether it was admiration or denial.

"Anyway, this game is the best I've ever played." Tu Shi raised his hand and shook his wrist: "It's just immersive." ”

Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, and continue to complain to others with a loud voice. Players like him who like to pick and choose are actually only a minority, and more people don't like this game because they are too used to the game mode of the past. The innovation of "Qiankun" is not only the hardware of the holographic helmet, but also the entire design concept that runs counter to previous games; It is compatible with the advantages of various types of games, but it confuses fans of all genres. Of course, those who play fighting games can accept the setting of "dodging monster attacks during battle", but they may not be able to accept the setting of Japanese RPGs (especially love and management) that "interaction with NPCs will affect the subsequent progress of the game".

"Big brother!"

Tu Shi turned around and found a little girl with pigtails running towards him. It was getting late, and the girl was carrying the slanting sun again, her face was blurry, and he only remembered who it was after a few more glances: the daughter of the snake farmer when he was doing the task of "Beware of Snakes and Insects" in the afternoon! The little girl ran to Tu Shi, stood on tiptoe, and gave an egg with a white handkerchief as if offering a treasure: "This is a gift from my father!" ”

The eggs are somewhat hot and cooked. What a rustic villager! Tu Shi was a little moved, thanked him repeatedly, and said in a loud voice next to him: "Hey, there are eggs to eat!" Many players noticed this, so they came up and asked the little girl how to sell her eggs. The little girl was afraid of life, so she hid behind Tu Shi and shouted weakly: "Don't sell, don't sell!" My hen only lays one egg a day, and today there is none! Go to my father! ”

The villagers who distributed the bread had not yet left. A young man noticed that the little girl was surrounded and was about to come over, but the chief of the security guard stretched out his hand to stop him.

Tu Shi put one hand around the girl's heart, and waved at everyone with the other: "Haha, let's get out of the way, don't scare the children." If you want to eat well, you should have a good relationship with NPCs and increase your intimacy. He turned his head and winked at the chief of the bodyguard, took the little girl's hand, and shouted as he walked: "Borrow, borrow!" Thank you! ”

When one of the older and the other was about to walk out of the crowd, one of them stepped forward and stretched out his hand to signal them to stop. He had a cold smile on his face: "Yu Qingfeng...... Right? Hello, this egg, you can make a price. ”

Tu Shi raised his eyes and first glanced at the ID of the comer: Xuanyuan Dragon God. This name is really crazy and cool...... Look at the man's face again, a little handsome, but his eyes are a little uncomfortable; Behind that person was a companion with his hands clasped, and his ID was the same shameful "Emperor Xuanyuan". All use "Xuanyuan" as the prefix of the name, and at a glance, you can tell that the two of them made an appointment before creating the role, could it be ......

Tu Shi burst into tears in her heart: Could it be that I, like the protagonist of the online game novel, met the prince who played the game with the group in the novice village?!

Of course, he only complained in his heart and smiled: "Okay, 5 copper coins." ”
