Chapter Fifty-Eight: Profiteer Su Xiao
"It's just a village, what's all the fuss about?" Su Geman smiled and patted Su Xiao's shoulder, "Even I can't figure out such a remote place, let alone you brave people from the other world!" ”
Su Geman's words are of course reasonable, but Chen Yaxuan understands why Su Xiao was surprised - Kekeli said that there are hot springs nearby, which means that Su Xiao must have explored the depths of the Savage Snow Mountain in "Abyss City", and he is absolutely not mistaken. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info But looking at the way he looks now, it shows that there must not be any village next to the hot springs of Abyssal City!
If he told Su Geman that he had played this world, the other party would definitely think that Su Xiao was sick, but a village appeared out of thin air, which made Su Xiao feel as if he had discovered something very important, so he hesitated and asked, "This village ...... When was it built? ”
It was no secret to Kkeri, and she generously replied, "It should be less than two hundred years." ”
"Two hundred years?" Hearing this number, Su Xiao became more and more sure that all this was not a coincidence, turned back to look at Ke Keli's eyes with expectant eyes, and asked tremblingly, "Is it after the last beast tide?" ”
"Last beast tide?" Sugman asked with a bewildered expression, "Was there a last beast tide?" ”
Su Xiao was directly immune to Su Geman's ignorance, and stared directly at Ke Ke Li, hoping that she could give herself a satisfactory answer, and Ke Ke Li did not disappoint Su Xiao, nodded and said: "I heard my grandmother say when I was a child, although I can't remember the details clearly, but it seems that because of the monster invasion of the mainland, some people in Peacock City hid in the depths of the snow mountain to escape, probably because they felt that the hot spring was very suitable for life, so they built a village there." ”
"Really...... This is true......" Hearing Ke Keli's words, Su Xiao lowered his head and muttered to himself endlessly, until Chen Yaxuan and the four of them panicked, he burst into laughter, and the crazy laughter resounded throughout the snowy mountain!
"Su Xiao, what's wrong with you!" Seeing Su Xiao's deranged look, Chen Yaxuan couldn't care about being reserved, and rushed over and hugged him! In this world, Su Xiao is her only support, if Su Xiao has a good one, Chen Yaxuan really can't think of it!
"I'm fine!" Su Xiao laughed and hugged Chen Yaxuan, hugged her in the snow for several turns, until she was dizzy, and then she lay in the snow with Chen Yaxuan in her arms, explaining: "The last time the beast tide was two hundred years ago, when there were no villages in the depths of the snowy mountains, that is to say, the last time the brave who was summoned to this world could not touch any villages in the snowy mountains!" ”
"What do you want to say?" Chen Yaxuan was dizzy by Su Xiao, and was even more confused by his words.
"I've been wondering, what does Abyss City have to do with this world? Now I understand that "Abyssal City" is a game created based on this world after the brave man returned to the real world two hundred years ago, so the two worlds will be exactly the same! That's why there are things in this world that are not in the game! Saying that, Su Xiao couldn't help laughing, "This shows that those who have been summoned to this world can go back!" ”
"Back to ...... Go to ......" Hearing this word, Chen Yaxuan's eyes suddenly welled up with tears, and she asked in disbelief: "Can we really go back?" Can we really go back? ”
"Of course!" Su Xiao said confidently: "According to my speculation, it will take about two years to clear the game, and in our world, if a group of people disappear collectively for two years, it will definitely cause social commotion!" But in fact, the last group of heroes cleared the game and returned to the real world without any impact. What does this mean? This shows that the timelines of the two worlds are different, even if we stay in this world for a year or two, we should still be in the college entrance examination after we go back! ”
"You're saying that a year here equals a second in the real world? Are you saying that we will still be able to integrate into that society when we go back? Chen Yaxuan sobbed excitedly, "Great...... It's so nice......"
"Abyssal City is a game made by the Holy Spirit Corporation, and I can guarantee that someone on the main creative team of Abyssal City is the brave man who was summoned to this world two hundred years ago!" Su Xiao said as she wiped away the tears from the corners of Chen Yaxuan's eyes, and said with a smile: "Believe me, we will definitely be able to go back!" ”
"Dude, are you leaving?" Even if Su Geman and the others didn't know what an online game was, what the college entrance examination was, and what a time travel was, they could guess something when they heard the conversation between Su Xiao and Chen Yaxuan and saw the surprised expressions on their faces. Although they have only known each other for two days, for Su Geman, he has established a friendship with Su Xiao, and when he learned that these two brave men from another world were leaving, he also wrote his sadness on his face.
"Young master, don't go! Sister, don't go! Alice hugged Su Xiao and Chen Yaxuan's arms and pleaded aggrievedly.
"What are you doing? Are you filming a bitter love scene? Su Xiao and Chen Yaxuan looked at each other and smiled, before explaining: "We are not from this world in the first place, and it is a matter of course to leave this world, what is there to be sad about?" What's more, the main quest hasn't been settled yet, and when I help you settle the world crisis, who knows it's the Year of the Monkey, you just want to cry, and you can save your tears for a few years? ”
"You're not leaving?" Alice asked tearfully.
"I can't leave if I want to!" Chen Yaxuan kissed Alice's face with pity, "We're not leaving." ”
"Never leave?" Alice asked stubbornly.
"......Forehead" Facing Alice's expectant eyes, Chen Yaxuan really didn't want to be perfunctory, but fortunately, Su Xiao patted Alice's head at the right time, and said nonsense without blushing and heartbeat: "Don't worry, we will never leave!" ”
Generally speaking, as long as it comes to topics such as "the banquet that will not be dispersed in the world", the atmosphere will often be more solemn. Although Su Xiaoyi solemnly stated that he would not leave this world, for people like Sugerman and Kekeli who had a little life experience, it was still easy to judge that this was a lie.
For a while, the atmosphere was more solemn than before, and several people were speechless all the way, and walked through the snow-capped mountains under the leadership of Kekeli, looking for the hidden villages.
I don't know if it's because of the avalanche, some of the original monster groups around have disappeared, Su Xiao looked around, and there was only a piece of snow in a radius of several miles. At the same time, God also played a joke with the five people, and when it was getting dark, heavy cumulonimbus clouds rose from the originally clear sky, and the white sky and the white earth were seamlessly connected, making people suspect that they had fallen into a pure white labyrinth!
Just when Su Xiao felt that she was almost snow blind, Kekeli suddenly pointed forward, turned around and shouted at a few people: "See? Right ahead! ”
Found the village? A few people looked in the direction of Kekeli's finger, and sure enough, they saw some solid wood colors in the vast snow! Being able to find this legendary village before dark, several people were excited, and they all accelerated their pace towards the entrance of the village! As long as they can enter the village, they can eat hot food, drink a sip of boiling water, and live in a house with a fire! Compared to camping in the snow, it's a paradise treat!
However, when the five of them walked into the village, they were frightened by the scene in front of them!
"Someone's coming! It's an adventurer! As soon as Su Xiao and the others stepped into the village, they were discovered, and before they could understand, they were surrounded by forty or fifty yellow-faced and thin-skinned villagers, kneeling on the ground and begging, "Please give us some food!" You haven't eaten for a week, you can't die without help! ”
Such a grand welcome scene really startled the five people, and Ke Keli was the first to react, strode in front of a thin old man, and while helping him up, he said eagerly: "Village Chief, it's me, I'm Ke Keli, Grandma Trish's Ke Ke Li!" What's wrong with everyone? ”
"Klekrie? You're Kercory! The village chief was not old and confused, and after a few glances, he recognized Kekeli's appearance, and then said with grief: "Ten days ago, the avalanche closed the mountain and cut off the road into the city, and the people in the village couldn't get out, and no one came outside the village. ”
"How so? Isn't there a granary in the village? ”
"Don't mention it!" Speaking of the granary, the village chief was even more sad than before, "A few days after the avalanche happened, a group of blue-tailed squirrels fled to the vicinity of the village and occupied our snow wheat fields, and then a group of short-winged lizards flew in and took over our granary. Since half a year ago, the soothsayer calculated that the beast tide had dropped, and all the employed people in the village spontaneously entered the city to resist the beast tide, and there were only us unemployed people left in the village, how could we beat those ferocious monsters! ”
"I'm sorry, I've been away from the village for too long, I didn't know that the last avalanche would actually make the village like this!" After all, it was the place where she was born and raised, and Kekeli was also very bitter when she saw what happened to the villagers.
When the village chief saw Kekeli, he said excitedly: "Girl, for everyone's sake, you can't die without saving you!" Is there food? Let's have a bite to eat first! ”
"yes, give us something to eat!" The villagers begged.
"It's not that I don't want to, I don't have much food on me!" Of course, Kekli didn't want to see the village starving, but she only brought enough dry food for a round trip when she went out, and even if she took it out, wouldn't there be only one crumb of bread left in the hands of each villager?
Seeing that the villagers were so pitiful, Chen Yaxuan was moved by compassion, she looked back at Su Xiao, no one knew better than her how many ingredients were stored in Su Xiao's backpack! There are no less than 100 groups of rabbit meat and fish alone, not to mention the guinea fowl that he slaughtered for one night with skeleton soldiers, not 1,000 but 800, it must be no problem to relieve these villagers.
Su Xiao naturally also noticed Chen Yaxuan's gaze, he knew that this girl was kind-hearted, and he didn't want to leave a cold-blooded and ruthless bad impression in Chen Yaxuan's heart, so even if he was really reluctant to use these strategic materials, he had to be a tyrant.
"Well, I have some meat ingredients, so don't embarrass Keli." Su Xiao said loudly.
Hearing the meat, dozens of villagers whose eyes were green with hunger were so hungry that their saliva was about to drip down! As a village example, the village chief excitedly shook Su Xiao's hand and said happily: "On behalf of the people of the village, I would like to express my gratitude to you!" ”
"Don't." Su Xiao withdrew his hand coldly, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing the face of a profiteer, "Want food?" Let's make a deal first! ”
