After the discovery of the first mysterious symbol, with a little attention, Xian Zimo soon discovered the second, third, and fourth ...... However, there is no pattern in the distribution of these symbolized trees.

But after all, this was the only clue for so long, and he was naturally unwilling to give up easily. So he took the big wolf to kill the wild monsters all the way and went deeper.

However, the closer you get to the lake, the fewer trees there are carved with symbols. By the time you could see the blue water, there were no symbols to be found in the surrounding numbers.

"Damn, rejoice in the air." Just as Xian Zimo was about to turn away, a huge piece of driftwood on the surface of the lake broke into his field of vision. Driftwood is nothing unusual, but driftwood carrying NPCs is rare.

It's just that the NPC doesn't look very comfortable, and the name on his head is [Wounded Explorer], but that doesn't prevent him from being a clue to the mission. Seeing the dawn, Xian Zimo hurriedly led the big wolf through the territory of the killer crocodile and came to the lake.

"Hey! The man, did you carve the symbols on the trees? ”

The shouting caused the NPC lying on the driftwood to raise its head. "yes." He responded.

Fortunately, the surroundings were still quiet at this time, otherwise Xian Zimo really didn't think he could hear the other party's voice. "I have something, can you show it for me?"

"Do you think I can still help others like this?" The NPC boy asked rhetorically.

"Then I'll help you go ashore first."

As soon as Xian Zimo's words fell, he heard the NPC on the lake refuse sharply: "You help me?" I'd rather be stuck here for a few more days than lose face. ”

"Shame?"

"Isn't it shameful enough to accept the mercy of the weak?"

The weak man in the words couldn't be more obvious, and the NPC's words were silent. "No matter how weak I am, at least I have come all the way here, and I haven't become as embarrassed as you, have I?"

"Too lazy to explain to a weak person like you." The young man simply turned his head away from looking at the shore, "In short, I will not accept handouts from the weak." It's so shameless. ”

"It's too bad to call Huazi!" encountered such a strange NPC, Xian Zimo could only return with a feather. But whether it is the strange character design of this NPC or the hard threshold to trigger the plot, the conditions for continuing this clue are no more obvious - to increase the level or combat power.

Looking back at the half-dead appearance of the young man, he could only pray that the young man's life was hard enough. It seems that in this game, even NPCs with a plot can die.

"Hey! You wait! ”

Xian Zimo turned around and walked only two steps, but behind him there was a weak call from the young man. Could it be that there is a turnaround? His heart jumped, and he hurriedly turned around.

"I don't want your help, but I know there is someone in the ancient capital who is in dire need of your help. If you're really that enthusiastic, go help her. ”

'The quest [Disappearing Soothsayer] has triggered an unexpected event [Not Help Me]. ’

It's good to have an accident! Xian Zimo was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Who are you talking about?" How do I find him? And how can I help him? ”

"She's in the house at No. 23 Cicada Lane, and when you knock on the door, learn to meow three times, and she'll open the door. It would be nice to bring her some food, and after that, when I get out of here, I will take care of her. ”

'Just you? The heart is really big, brother, it's good that you don't die here. Xian Zimo couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Did you recognize me after I helped him?"

"Is it worth your attention to such a small thing as delivering food? Sure enough, it's the weak. The boy said disdainfully.

Hearing this, Xian Zimo also understood that he couldn't expect this unexpected event to save time. turned around and took out the teleportation stone and was about to go back to the city, but he heard the guy behind him emphasizing:

"Remember, you're not helping me, you're just helping that person."

"Got it, got it."

After returning to Jingyao Square in the white light and letting the big wolf move freely to the nearby [Xiaguang Shallow Hill], Xian Zimo walked into the city gate. After buying a silver coin of food at the grocery store, he opened the map to find the [Cicada Alley].

"Damn, it's so remote, I'm dazzled to find it."

It took him a long time to find the three bean-sized words in the most inconspicuous corner of the map. It was an alley in a residential area, and if it hadn't been nominated by accident, he would never have noticed that there was such a strip on the map.

Once you've found the location on the map, it's easy to follow. It's not too far away, with a map, through the streets and alleys, a few minutes later Xian Zimo entered the cicada alley.

Sure enough, this remote alley feels like two worlds compared to the bustling streets outside the ancient capital. Without this, he didn't know that there was such a shadow area in the original magnificent ancient capital.

"No. 11, No. 13, No. 14......"

Fortunately, the dilapidated house numbers outside each house had not been completely erased, and he found them in the alleyway according to the vague numbers on them. However, when he counted to the 20th, there was movement in the alleyway ahead.

As far as I could see, I saw a dozen sturdy men banging on the door of a wooden house. Looking at the names on their heads, [Bandit (Level 12)], this is not the key, the point is that these names are actually red.

The red name is the hostile unit that is allowed to attack, but this is in the main city, and you can actually see the red name unit, Xian Zimo couldn't help but feel novel. However, before he could make a move, a bandit was already walking towards him.

"Hey! Boy, if you don't want to die, take out all the valuable things on your body. ”

-92

[Heart-seeking] is indeed a valuable thing.

A punch hit the bandit in the cloth clothes, directly emptying the full life bar. The bandit flew a few meters away with his strength and fell beside his accomplices.

"Pounce!"

The muffled sound of the corpse hitting the ground made several bandits who were busy smashing the door and picking the lock notice the anomaly on the side. Perhaps it was because they didn't see the scene where their accomplices had just been killed by a punch, and the advantage in numbers gave them the courage to pull out their respective weapons from their waists.

As for Xian Zimo, he didn't mind playing with these "low-level humanoid monsters". After getting used to fighting the level 19 and 20 monsters, and then facing the bandits in front of him, he couldn't help but have the illusion that he was playing a game of "Mushuang". Before he used [Heavy Punch], he didn't expect to be able to punch the opponent away.

The two sides clashed again, and there were two more bodies of bandits on the ground. This time, the bandits saw the gap between the two sides clearly, and the state of [panic] spread over their heads for a while. Even though they still had an absolute advantage in numbers, no one had the will to fight anymore, and they turned around and fled towards the surrounding alleys.

Xian Zimo didn't bother to chase these level 12 wild monsters, and then turned his head to look at the door that had just been knocked on by the bandits. The door number on the side reads "No. 23".

"This is what it is."

He stepped forward and knocked on the door, only to find that the wooden door was already fragile, and if it hadn't been for his interruption, the bandits would have broken in. Speaking of which, he should be considered lucky.

Remembering the boy's instructions, he learned to meow three more times. After waiting for a long time, a weak voice sounded inside: "Salou, is that you?" ”

Hearing the female voice in the room ask, Xian Zimo understood, it must be the name of the young man. So he replied, "I'm a friend of Salou, and he asked me to bring you some food." Cat meow is also what he asked me to learn. ”

The people in the house opened the rickety wooden door: "So where is he now?" ”

"He's in trouble right now, and it probably won't be a while before he comes to you." While handing over the food, Xian Zimo replied. Seeing that the other party didn't reach out to pick it up for a long time, he noticed that the other party seemed to be a blind man.

'Complete the Unexpected Event [Not Help Me], gain 100 XP, and opinion of Salou'

"Oh. Thank you for the food. The girl standing in the shadows took the food and paused before asking, "Can you give me another dagger?" Or something else, any weapon will do. ”

'The quest [Vanishing Soothsayer] triggers the unexpected event [Trouble with the Blind Girl]. ’

"Are you afraid that those bandits will come and harass you again?"

"Yes. Please. The blind girl prayed.

Xian Zimo rummaged through his backpack, and the only extra weapon in the entire bag was the [Murder Stab]. Although I feel a little distressed, for the sake of the dragon egg task, I still have to endure the pain. Anyway, he doesn't need a dagger himself, and there is no one else around him who needs a dagger, so just give it.

"Is this okay?"

"Yes, yes, thank you so much."

However, with the exception of the opinion increase hint, the hint of the completion of the unexpected event still does not appear. Suddenly, Xian Zimo realized that this accident could not be solved with a dagger.

It seems that the problem lies with the bandits just now, but now that everyone is gone, it is impossible to kill them all. Thinking about it, he had a flash of inspiration, "It's not safe for you to have a dagger, otherwise you can stay in a nearby hotel first, and when Salou is done, I will bring him to you." ”

"But...... I don't have any money. ”

"Alright, I have."

"Thank you so much, I will definitely remember this kindness. Wait for me, I'm going to go into the house and get something. ”

' +10 Opinion

A few minutes later, when the blind girl slowly walked out of the shadows in the room, Xian Zimo realized that she had pure white hair. His intuition told him that this girl should not be an ordinary NPC either.
