Chapter 1022: The Legend of the Green Lake (I)
Except for the clothes that fit the background of the dungeon, the costumes of the other three people are too eye-catching.
This is not obvious in other dungeons, after all, there are all kinds of birds among the adventurers, and no one will take a second look at the grass that is far from the original grass, probably thinking of him as an alternative mage.
And in this dungeon, it's basically the same as the Xianxia background, where you wear a magic robe and full-body plate armor......
Later, they had to go out to continue gathering intelligence, and it was obviously not conducive to going out in clothes that the locals considered fancy dress.
And don't forget, they will soon go to participate in the full moon wine of the children and grandchildren of the Wang family according to the invitation, and they are still dressed in a rather magical dress, and it is estimated that they will not even be allowed to enter.
But having said that, even Ann Yizhi's messy dimensional pocket can't have clothes suitable for wearing here, and when you take off your equipment, you wear the clothes you wore when you first entered the game......
It seems to be more conspicuous.
Fortunately, there was a way to leave the grass on the plain, and he took out three sets of clothes that were said to be special for the disciples of the Rune Sect, and this thing could be picked up at will in the door.
This set of clothes is an elite-level item, and the attributes are okay, but there is a requirement of 'limited to the disciples of the Rune Sect', there is no way to sell it for money, and An Yi pointed out that they are just pretending to wear it, and the effect on it will not be activated.
But even if it is a relatively wide robe, it is impossible for An Yizhi to put it on the outside, his Mithril robe is too big, and so is the invincible brave, and that armor is too space-intensive.
Therefore, the two of them could only take off their equipment and stuff it into their dimensional pockets, and then put this set of Taoist robes on their bodies, and their defensive power was basically equal to that of naked.
Considering that the danger in the city should not be too large, it is not too dangerous to dress naked, and if you need to go out of the city, you can wear it back again.
Compared with the two of them, Lin Linglin saves a lot of trouble, her short body is relatively slim, and a set of wide Taoist robes is enough.
And the hair also needs to be changed, in this copy, it seems that there is also a statement that the parents of the body hair and skin are affected, everyone basically does not cut their hair, including Lin Linglin, the three of them do not quite conform to the rules.
So they put on the square hats given by the grass on the original side, and when the change was completed, there were two more fake Taoist priests and one fake Taoist aunt in the room.
It's just that An Yizhi always feels a bit like a fortune teller who opens his mouth and closes his mouth and closes your bad omen, especially the Taoist robe with white stripes on a dark blue background, no matter how you look at it, it looks like a magic stick.
Lili Yuan Shangcao said that the head of the Rune Gate had also complained like this, but he never planned to change it, because he thought that he couldn't be the only one who was trapped......
The head of the rune gate is really a tease.
After changing their clothes, everyone left the inn room and chose to go downstairs to find an empty seat in the lobby.
It's not particularly conspicuous when you change your dress, after all, there are still a lot of Taoist priests in Youfang, and the diners who eat breakfast in the hall don't even look at them with their eyes, unlike the brave and invincible just now, when they went upstairs, they were almost stopped by the shopkeeper.
- He was afraid that the brave would be invincible and break the stairs......
The easiest place to find out information is still a crowd gathering place such as inns and taverns, but it may be related to the fact that the people of the Celestial Empire are more accustomed to keeping a low profile, although there are a few empty seats in the hall, everyone either bows their heads to eat, or talks in a whisper, there is no such noisy feeling at all, and the possibility of getting information from the customer's mouth is extremely low.
Of course, a small voice does not mean that you can't get information at all, you must know that in this kind of inn, the most well-informed person is the shopkeeper who is busy taking care of business.
An Yizhi pulled open the bench and sat down boldly, and the shopkeeper immediately came over:
"What is the guest officer?"
An Yizhi said without thinking:
"Cut two catties of cooked beef, and then make a pot of good wine."
When I used to watch martial arts, those Jianghu high-rollers went to the inn to order food in this tone, and An Yizhi also wanted to try it.
Lin Linglin hurriedly said:
"Stir-fry two more vegetarian dishes."
"Well, sit down, and you'll be fine right away."
An Yizhi is a meatless and unhappy guy, if Lin Linglin didn't look at it, this product would definitely be three meals a day, and eating vegetables with An Yizhi has become a conditioned reflex......
The cooked beef and wine are ready-made, and it is not troublesome to fry two garlic vegetables, and within a few minutes, the shopkeeper came over with a plate and put it down.
"Slow use by the guest officer."
"Little second brother, stay here."
"What's the matter with the guest officer?"
The player doesn't need to eat, and orders something just to find the shopkeeper for information, which is the same as going to the tavern to collect information and have to buy alcohol and drink.
An Yizhi thought about it, and decided that it would be better to ask about the youkai first, this matter is the biggest contradiction found so far.
"A few of us heard from the caravan that there are monsters haunting this place, is it true?"
"It's impossible, who is chewing the root of the tongue."
The shopkeeper hurriedly waved his hand and said:
"The guest officer doesn't know, our Cuihu Town is guarded by the Cuihu Fairy, and the wind and rain have been smooth for hundreds of years, and the monsters and others dare not enter the city at all."
Green Lake Fairy? What the hell is this?
Raising his eyes to look at the grass on Lili Yuan, the latter shook his head lightly to indicate that he didn't know either.
Dan all the shopkeepers who worked in the inn had a good eye, and when he saw that An Yizhi was interested in the Green Lake Fairy, he continued:
"It's all the legend of the older generation, before the war was in chaos, and it caught up with the catastrophe year, there was no harvest in the fields, the Cuihu fairy went down to the earth to use the fairy method to conjure food, and the warlords from all walks of life heard that there was a Cuihu fairy here, and no one dared to make a mistake, which allowed us to escape the disaster in Cuihu Town."
Leaving the grass on the plain asked:
"Has anyone seen the Green Lake Fairy with their own eyes?"
"Guest officer, you are joking, it is almost thousands of years ago, how can anyone have seen it with their own eyes, but the people in the town believe that there is a Green Lake Fairy to protect it."
"Little second brother."
Someone called on the other side of the lobby, and the shopkeeper answered, saying:
"If you are interested, you can go to the Lake Pavilion to have a look, there is a statue of the Green Lake Fairy, the little one will go and get busy first."
"I'm bothering the second brother."
The shopkeeper smiled and continued to be busy.
Ann pointed to the cup of wine and drank it all.
As a result, the spicy only stuck out his tongue, and said that the good ancient liquor was low-alcohol liquor......
"Green Lake Fairy...... I always feel that this information should be the key clue. ”
"Hmm. In addition, the shopkeeper said that there could never be a monster in the town. ”
An Yizhi continued:
"And the information I got from the caravan said that there are monsters haunting this place, so I can be sure."
Lin Linglin took over the conversation:
"Rumors of youkai are coming from outside the town, not inside the town, probably because someone wants to make a fuss about the fact that there are youkai."
"For example....."
Lili Yuan Shangcao hesitated:
"What does someone want to achieve with this demon slayer?"
"Grass, you said that monks don't interfere with mortals easily, right?"
Lili Yuan Shangcao nodded.
"Whether the matter of the Green Lake Fairy is true or not, she can be regarded as interfering."
"This is different, the monk has a saying about accumulating yin virtue, so he usually reaches out to help when he encounters a famine or something."
"That's ......"
To put it bluntly, most monks are a bunch of rotten good people.
A series of information swirled around in his mind, and An Yi pointed:
"Anyway, the next step for us is to find out the purpose of someone who plans to use the demon extermination, I feel that this is the main quest, and we can probably start from the legend of the Green Lake Fairy."
Although there is not much basis, An Yizhi always feels that the legend of the Green Lake Fairy must have something to do with the main quest, and the reason is very simple.
Routine.
Don't you see a lot of martial arts and immortals doing this......
"Taste this beef, it's much better than the steak you usually eat in the tavern."
In this case, only the brave are invincible, but he is not wrong, the taste of beef is really good.
An Yizhi put down his chopsticks and was about to pour another glass of wine, when he suddenly remembered something:
"Which of you brought the money?"
“……”
–‐‐——–‐‐——
The currencies of all planes of the multiverse world cannot be universalized, even if they are all gold coins, not to mention that in this Xianxia painting style, which is extremely similar to the ancient Celestial Empire in terms of customs and story background, it is definitely not scientific to still use gold coins to settle the bill.
It's too embarrassing to eat without money, but fortunately, there is grass on the plain.
He had a little broken silver in his pocket, and a string of copper coins, all of which were common currencies in this dungeon, otherwise the four of them would end up in the dilemma of brushing the dishes for the meal, which was also too miserable.......
By the way, it is said that the currency used in the monks is the spirit stone, and Hela quietly popped out of the dimensional pocket and looked at it and said that it was similar to a magic crystal, except that the spirit stone looked more like a jade, while the magic crystal ...... It's crystals.
But I have to say that the setting of the spirit stone is real earth.
After settling the bill, the four of them left the inn, and the next step was naturally to study the legend of the Green Lake Fairy.
The shopkeeper told them that there was a statue of the Green Lake Fairy in the Lake Center Pavilion, and the destination was there.
The origin of the name of Cuihu Town is the Cuihu Lake next to him, the lake area is not small, although it is not as big as the famous West Lake Taihu Lake, but it is also a large body of water.
It's on the south side of the town, and you don't have to go out of the city to get there, and if you can cross the green lake, you don't have to go through the city gate to enter the town.
The Lake Center Pavilion is not difficult to find, and you can see it by looking at it casually.
Of course, the so-called pavilion in the center of the lake cannot stand in the middle of the lake, but a red lacquered wooden bridge is built on the shore, and there is a hexagonal pavilion about 20 meters into the water, which looks quite elegant.
Cross this wooden bridge and come to the Pavilion in the Heart of the Lake, where a stone sculpture sits in the middle of the pavilion.
It looks like a typical fairy image, with a flowing cloud skirt, a drape, and a spiritual sideburns on its head, as for its appearance......
Anyway, the statues are pretty much the same.
This is the legendary Green Lake Fairy.
There is an incense case in front of the statue, and there are incense burners and fruit offerings on it, what the shopkeeper said is true, not to mention whether the Cuihu Fairy is still guarding Cuihu Town, at least the Cuihu Fairy has helped Cuihu Town, otherwise there will be no statue of her.
Ann circled the statue twice with his fingers, but couldn't see anything, so he had to ask Hela for help.
"There's something wrong with this statue"
Hela looked at it with arcane vision and said:
"There is some strange power left on the statue, and it is not a complete stone carving."
