Volume 1 Searching for Ruins in Troubled Times Chapter 42 Xixiang Village's Plea for Help

Walking on the road out of Lou County, Xu Yang looked at the dense notes written in his hand, although he was a little distressed, he was still very happy.

There is a saying in Huaxia that no matter where you go, as long as you can find a shopkeeper who runs the hall - then congratulations on successfully finding a jack of all trades.

This sentence is still applicable in the game, just now Xu Yang did not hesitate to spend 10 gold coins to exchange for a gold ingot, and directly and generously threw it to the shopkeeper. This shopkeeper, who only earns a few silver coins a month, almost didn't tell his ancestors for eighteen generations, this is the role of money, and this is also the role of the shopkeeper in the restaurant - to find out the news!

"Lord, you have explored so many bandit strongholds, where do we start?" Xiang Fu looked at the dense text on the note and began to ask.

This time, Xu Yang asked all the places near Lou County where there might be bandit strongholds, and the purpose was naturally to loot all these guys. Before, Xu Yang felt that he had limited troops at hand, but tonight he recruited so many soldiers at once, if he didn't rob a few cottage strongholds or something, his Mingyue Town would be eaten down directly!

"Well, starting tomorrow morning, the soldiers will start to clear in three ways. We still need resources too much......" After Xu Yang finished speaking, he carefully put away the note with the bandit stronghold near Lou County, and then took out the tiger tooth gun.

Because in front of the eyes of the two, a group of players appeared!

"Yo! I caught a fat sheep tonight, it's actually the mayor of the first town in the world, the Xinghuo Moonlight Brothers, it seems that this is the day for us to make the rats go on fire! A player with a sharp beak and monkey cheeks led about 100 people to block the entire alley, looked at Xu Yang and said.

Since there is no identity to hide, Xu Yang's name can be viewed as long as the player uses some means. After all, now that players have a little bit of a knowledge of the game, it's easier than ever to figure out the identity of a player, even if you don't have skills like probing, you can do it by asking the NPCs he talked to.

Xu Yang was not surprised that his identity was exposed, he was a player with an NPC by his side, and he was also a good general, so he would naturally be targeted by several guilds in Lou County. It's just that now Xu Yang doesn't confirm which guild is attacking him this time, and he has specially sent this so-called rat club, a group of clowns who jump off the beam, obviously covering their ears and stealing bells!

"Rats? I haven't heard of it,......" Xu Yang's voice was not loud, but in this quiet night, it reached the ears of every player, "but you are really worthy of your name, you really know how to act at night like a mouse." But I would like to advise you, if you don't really want to make everyone scream like a rat, then get out of here and let the people behind you come out......"

Rats cross the street and everyone shouts and fights! This sentence has always been the most hated by everyone in the rat club, but fortunately they are only a relatively loose organization. Every day, everyone advertises some tasks or hires to each other in a hidden channel. It can be said that these people who came today do not know each other, and the rat society is even more named because of its relatively loose organization.

But what Xu Yang said just now seemed to be a fuse, which made the entire members of the Rat Club angry. And the man who took the lead just now even said: "The village chief of Xinghuo Moonlight naturally looks down on our rat club, but today let's let us street rats come to understand the power of the mayor of the first town in the world!" Brothers, come on! ”

"Kill!"

"Exploding his equipment ......"

"Occupy the first town ...... his world"

"Kill him, and our rat club will be famous......"

With all kinds of shouts and killings, players holding all kinds of strange-shaped weapons killed Xu Yang and Xiang Fu one after another. At this time, few people noticed that when the most leading man saw everyone killing Xu Yang, he himself silently retreated.

This scene naturally can't be hidden from Xu Yang, and as soon as the gang surrounded him, Xu Yang asked Xiang Fu not to move, and if he was attacked, he could only use defensive moves.

Bite! Bite! Clang! Clang!

All kinds of crisp metal crashing sounds continue to echo in the alley, Xu Yang Xiang Fu and the two are already super-level generals, and in the face of these players who only have the strength of junior and intermediate generals, they still have more than enough rubbing, even if there are occasional bows and arrows, they will miss because they are not accurate. There will even be arrows directly hitting their own people, and the fundamental reason for this phenomenon is the weakness of the player at this stage, even if the hired soldiers are only fourth-order, even if they are high.

In such a dark night, if you want to shoot two designated targets in a multiplayer melee, I am afraid that this will not be possible under the sixth-order soldiers. And this kind of small-scale siege is different from a melee, in which you have an approximate location of the enemy even if you don't have the right head, which is completely different now! There are only two enemies, and the rest are allies, which results in most of the arrows being wasted.

"Don't shoot arrows, everybody go up and fight these two guys. Even if it is grinding, it will grind them to death, as long as they die, then the first town in the world will be ours! Brothers, rush forward! Glory and wealth are just around the corner......" shouted the man in the lead, hiding behind the group.

At this time, Xu Yang also understood that this lewd man was definitely the leader of this group, or it was possible that the mastermind was the mastermind!

The battle lasted about 15 minutes, and Xu Yang and Xiang Fu had been relying on their high-level strength and pure gun skills to roam the siege of these players. Everything seems to be so smooth, like flowing water, and it looks extremely beautiful. Even though every move and style is a basic gun style, there is no superfluous action in that number of movements, and it looks so pleasing to the eye.

Bite! Regional news: If you are suspected of fighting in Lou County, the guards will forcibly arrest and detain you for an hour.

This system prompt sounded throughout the street, and then a large number of soldiers appeared at both ends of the street, surrounding both sides of the brawl. This is also one of the more interesting settings in the "Firmament" system, if the player fights in the city, he will not be arrested directly, but the guards will arrive within a certain time.

At this moment, the players of the Mouse Club are a little stupid, the strength of the city guards is not high, and some even have the strength of the fourth order, but these soldiers can not move. Because once you attack the city guards, it is equivalent to provoking the Han Dynasty, and now it is still a peaceful and prosperous era, who dares to openly rebel? All the players chose to obediently tie their hands and did not dare to resist at all. Of course, this also includes Xu Yang and Xiang Fu.

Rebelling against the guards? Even Xu Yang didn't dare, but there was no room for turnaround, when the guards escorted Xu Yang and the others, Xu Yang found a guard captain and quietly stuffed a gold ingot.

The captain of the guard weighed it slightly, and then reassured Xu Yang with a very tacit look. As a result, the members of the Rat Society were held for three full hours for the reason of gathering a crowd to make trouble. Xu Yang and Xiang Fu were taken to the county government to make a record, and they were released as victims. The law, of course, is to protect the people who are attacked, so that those who make mistakes without permission can be punished by the law!

After the matter of the rat club, Xu Yang and Xiang Fu returned to Mingyue Town without saying a word. But in the middle of the night, Mingyue Town has a special guest - Xiang Hu!

"Brother Tiger, why are you here so late?" Seeing Xiang Hu anxiously pacing back and forth near the mayor's stone monument, Xu Yang immediately ran over and asked.

For Xiang Hu, Xu Yang has a lot of emotions with others. This is the first NPC he has encountered in this world, or the one that has the deepest intersection with himself, from a certain point of view, Xu Yang doesn't even think that Xiang Hu is an NPC, because in his eyes, Xiang Hu is willing to take the villagers to rob for the son of the head of Xixiang Village, and then cooperates with himself willingly to "cheat money", which all shows that Xiang Hu is a love and righteousness.

For such a person, no matter where they are, they are respected. Xu Yang has a deep relationship with Xixiang Village, and at the first glance of Xiang Hu, Xu Yang vaguely felt that Xiang Hu was here to have something to do with Xixiang Village!

"Yoko...... No, Mayor Mingyue, I'm here this time to ask for something......" Xiang Hu said and was about to kneel.

This is worth it, Xu Yang is now a super-level general. With his relationship with Xiang Hu, if there is really something in Xixiang Village, he will definitely spare no effort to help, and Xu Yang believes that he also has this strength.

Holding Xiang Hu who was about to kneel, Xu Yang hurriedly said, "Brother Hu, what are you doing, hurry up." Also, you just continue to call me Yangzi, what kind of mayor does it seem to be a foreigner......"

Feeling Xu Yang's kindness as always, and the tone was still the Yangzi who went into the mountains to hunt with himself and other villagers, Xiang Hu smiled awkwardly and said: "Before I came, the village chief told me that Yangzi is already the mayor of a town, and you have to respect it when you see it, and etiquette is not ......."

Xiang Hu slowly said a lot of things, obviously those things were specially explained by Village Chief Xiang before he came. And Xu Yang took Xiang Hu to his room at this time, after all, outside is not a place to talk about things.

"Brother Tiger, you should have something important to do this time! Tell me what's going on, if it's not an urgent matter, Village Chief Xiang is afraid that he won't let you come to me so late! Seeing that Xiang Hu was much smoother than before, Xu Yang asked.

Only then did Xiang Hu react that he had a task in coming to Xu Yang this time. hurriedly spoke: "Yoko, it's not good! Something big has happened in our Xixiang Village! No, no, together with Dongxiang Village, something big has happened to both of our villages......"

Seeing Xiang Hu's face change, Xu Yang knew that the problem was not so simple. And Xiang Hu also began to say gradually, the beginning of the matter should have been seven days ago, when a small road that was only seen in Xixiang Village and Dongxiang Village suddenly collapsed. There were no casualties because no one was around. But then the two villages discovered the landslide, made a blockade on the side of the road, and walked over to the side of the road.

But the strange thing has just begun, the collapse looks bottomless, and there have been people who have tested the depth of this collapse during the day, but the torches that were dropped did not make any sound in the end, and then fell directly into a gloom. Such a place would not have caused panic in both villages, but on the night of the third day, the two villages began to have lost poultry.

It's terrifying now, if it's just an extra crater, then even if it's deep, it may be caused by an earthquake or something. But now it's a lost animal, which can't help but think of something else, and when the lost animal is linked to the place where the collapse occurred, some daring villagers decided to go down and take a look!

Several well-prepared villagers went down to the site of the collapse at noon today, but in this way, they never came back! At this time, the village chief of Xixiang Village immediately thought of Xu Yang, the great benefactor who once helped him save his son. And after the village chief said Xu Yang, Xiang Hu immediately said that he came over overnight to invite Xu Yang, but Xu Yang was still in Lou County when Xiang Hu arrived, which also made Xu Yang come back and saw Xiang Hu waiting for him.

"Listening to you say that, is there anything special about the place where the collapse occurred?" Xu Yang asked.

To say that there is no problem in the place of the collapse is absolutely impossible. It's just that I don't know if the loss of poultry in Xixiang Village and Dongxiang Village has something to do with this thing, although this is a game world, Xu Yang doesn't think that such a big landslide is just to steal a little poultry.

Xiang Hu scratched his head, thought about it carefully, and said, "Look, the characteristics of the place where the collapse occurred...... Black, very black! Generally speaking, the sun shines at noon, and even the darkest place should be able to see something, but that place gives people the impression that it is always dark, and it is not clear what to see. ”

Black? Can't see anything clearly, not even at noon? What's going on? Suddenly Xu Yang had a bold guess, it couldn't be that thing, right?

Bite! System prompt: The head of Xixiang Village released the Xixiang Village story mission "Exploring the Unknown Landslide" to you, do you accept it?

"Accept!"

Without any reason, Xu Yang immediately confirmed that he accepted the task. Story missions, but they are relatively rare missions in the game. Except for some large-scale plots and regional plots, it is extremely difficult to trigger any plot quest in other circumstances, and the rewards of plot quests are often very rich, Xu Yang believes that with his existing relationship with Xixiang Village, this quest will definitely not be a loss.

The most important thing at the moment is to investigate the location of the collapse first, and find out if the situation is as you think......
