Chapter 268: The Storm Rises Again
Defeat, return tasks, unreasonable rewards......
Xu Xi's mind was full of these three fatal loopholes, if it weren't for the gloomy mood caused by Ah Sheng's death before, he would have noticed it a long time ago.
Xu Xi thought about it here, and Ziqi Donglai and the disciples all smiled evilly and reined in the horse, hehe, he laughed. Danxia wanted to remind Xu Xi, but was stopped by Coke.
Several people watched as Xu Xi was carried by the shadow and walked towards a horizontal branch!
Bang......
Xu Xi's brain hit the branch that came out horizontally, and his head turned red on the spot, and he almost fell off the horse.
"Hahahaha, you deserve it, haha!" Zi Qi Donglai and the others burst into laughter, and Coke rolled on the ground with exaggerated laughter: "You have to invite us to drink, otherwise, you will send out your ugly appearance as the number one in the world for everyone to enjoy." ”
Xu Xi rubbed his head depressedly, and a red mark was very conspicuous. Jueying shook his head proudly, and shook his head at Xu Xi's demonstration, as if to say that if you ignore the existence again, I will not be polite.
"Alright, alright, I'm sorry, I forgot to communicate with you!" Xu Xi glared at everyone depressedly and angrily, and patted the head of the Jueying who deliberately took him to hit the branch because he ignored it: "Let's go." ”
Jueying shook his nose in satisfaction, raised his forelimbs, and hissed back to the road.
was actually molested by a horse, these days, I really can't mix!
Xu Xi was melancholy......
I don't know if it was for the Jeying to knock his head, but it knocked Xu Xi's train of thought away!
Looking back and checking it in the forum, his heart moved!
The area around Blackwood Cliff is still in ruins, and has not yet been refreshed. Most of the scenes are refreshed within three days, and the destruction of a building and environment is generally refreshed and intact in just three days.
As for the longer ones, it will most likely not exceed seven days.
So far, exactly seven days have passed since the Battle of Blackwood Cliff, but Blackwood Cliff is still in ruins, and it has not yet been brushed back to its original state.
There's only one explanation for this, either the mission hasn't been completed yet, or it's a special scene in a special plot.
While Xu Xi was pondering, a pigeon flew from a distance and landed in the hands of Ziqi Donglai. He took out a note from the ankle ring and looked at it a few times, and suddenly became excited: "Zhenwu Seven Interception Formation, haha, I didn't expect to kill Dongfang undefeated, I can actually receive this task." Sorry, I'll go first! ”
Xu Xi is another spirit, yes, the other players who participated in the siege mission seem to have more or less transferred to other missions through this mission. Now, even Ziqi has received the task of intercepting the True Martial Seven Formation, but he has no other follow-up tasks......
Another irrational place.
The next day, Coke also received the task, Xie Xiaofeng died in battle, and Shenjian Villa asked him to go back to sit in place for a while......
In succession, the disciples, Maoyan and others have received tasks one after another. After a few days, only Xu Xi and Danxia were left.
While rushing towards the Forbidden City, Xu Xi combined all the clues.
In retrospect, from the original decision to start with Yan Zhendong, he officially re-entered the circle of Jianghu players, and the follow-up mission triggered by the whitewashing reincarnation was officially launched at that time.
What Yan Zhendong started was one of the return tasks, and it was an additional return of self-created martial arts. If it weren't for the nine-turn mission that didn't seem to be weak at all, maybe the "Once Upon a Time" series would not only be able to return the inch, but even capture the dragon and the crane might be able to get it back.
After Yan Zhendong, it was Li Xunhuan and Lu Xiaofeng, which seemed to have nothing to do with the follow-up mission.
The first two encounters with Gong Jiu were definitely the follow-up tasks of the East, and even the Divine Illumination Sutra was very likely. When he rejects Ah Sheng on the island, there is a subtle change in the questline, and then the return mission is launched......
Thinking about it carefully, Xu Xi was shocked to find that since he set foot in the rivers and lakes, everything he has done is related to the follow-up mission in the east.
The seemingly messy links and side quests, as the plot gradually progresses, are gradually pushed to the main line, which is definitely interlocking.
Xu Xi was gloomy, it turned out that Ah Sheng's fate was already doomed from the moment he set foot in the rivers and lakes again.
Because he refused Ah Sheng on the island, he had the task of returning the country on his behalf, and because of the whitewashing of the country, he gradually came to the ultimate link of the siege of Blackwood Cliff under the promotion of the fusion of many plots.
Thinking like this, Xu Xi is creepy! Interlocking tasks, each link must be tightly linked to the next plot.
That is to say, from the return of selective martial arts, to the return of equipment, and then, and then next, it should be the return of insightful returns such as honor points.
The first two tasks have been completed, and the last link is missing.
The loss he had to launder back then was so great that the rewards such as 10,000 honors and other points for killing Ah Sheng alone were definitely not enough to make up for one-third of his loss. Therefore, the unreasonable reward this time is probably because this is not the ultimate part of the follow-up mission, but one of the stages.
But Ah Sheng is dead, and this follow-up mission is closely related to him, and if he dies, the last link will not be possible. But the system will never make this kind of mistake, and if it pays back two, the remaining one must definitely be returned, at least to give Xu Xi a chance to get it back.
To say that there is no chance to get it back, unless Xu Xi made a fatal mistake in the previous mission and wiped out the plot that should have appeared next......
But after thinking about it carefully, Xu Xi couldn't think of any fatal mistake he had made, so this statement was not true.
The plot of going to Zhenbei City because of "New Dragon Gate Inn" is obviously one of the follow-up tasks. In that link, Wang Zhu became a very important thing, with a great deal of importance, and it was also the first time that the rebellion was involved.
Rebellion, this time only the Nantian District has a rebellion. With the undefeated talents of the East, if you want to peak the Forbidden Dynasty, it is obvious that you will not only have such a little reliance, there must be something else.
Before the start of the war, the Blackwood Cliff was empty, and all important people such as seeking defeat were transferred.
Dongfang Undefeated knew what Xu Xi was doing, but he didn't stop it, and even felt that the extermination of the Sun and Moon God Sect was still very smooth.
With the undefeated ability of the East, knowing that there would be no good end, even if he would not run away with his pride, he would never let the imperial court exterminate the Sun and Moon God Cult so easily......
Add to that the loopholes for defeat, and the loopholes for the ruins of Blackwood Cliff......
The follow-up super mission of the East that was taken at the cost of whitewashing back then could not be completed so easily, and it was impossible to have only a little reward, and there was definitely a follow-up plot.
And the follow-up plot definitely needs the existence of Ah Sheng!
A guess came to Xu Xi's mind, an incredible guess!
He looked at Danxia and looked at her directly: "You said, if you fall from the Black Wood Cliff, will you definitely die!" ”
Danxia thought for a while: "Not necessarily, unless there is no internal strength, unless it falls too far away from the Black Wood Cliff, otherwise as long as the internal force and light skill level are at the Dao level, they will not die." ”
As long as it falls not far from the mountain wall, with the ability of a Dao-level master, there is always a way to fall slowly!
Xu Xi knew the answer, he just wanted to confirm it.
Danxia heard him muttering an earth-shattering sentence: "Speaking of which, Dongfang is undefeated and may not really be dead!" ”
This surprise was not trivial, Danxia didn't even understand: "If Dongfang is undefeated and doesn't die, how can we get rewarded?" "Danxia is just receiving a task from the periphery.
"I can't figure it out, if he's not dead, how can we get a reward? But there are too many flaws, there is only one explanation, he is not dead, or, he is dead, but there are other tricks! ”
When Xu Xi said this, his eyes suddenly sank!
If Ah Sheng cheats to death or dies, but there is a follow-up move, what is the purpose?
Ah Sheng is making waves behind the scenes, nothing more than to avenge his grandfather.
The best way to find the emperor for revenge is either to rise to the top or kill the other party!
Lao Ye is not Ah Sheng's opponent!
However, there is a person next to Lao Ye who Ah Sheng will never dare to approach - Zero Zero!
The reason why Lao Ye kept Zero Hair by his side was because of Zero Shot's merits and Xu Xi, and secondly, it must be to prevent Ah Sheng!
Dongfang is undefeated and dead, and Lao Ye must relax his vigilance. He has always disliked Zero Shots, and without the threat of the East, I'm afraid Zero Shots will be assigned as soon as possible!
Whether Ah Sheng cheated to death or had a follow-up move, this is the best time to kill Lao Ye.
Even Dongfang may have cheated to death, after killing Lao Ye, and then ordered all the people who had prepared in advance to rebel, and then replaced Lao Ye's country......
Xu Xi's heart sank extremely quickly, and a Sheng died, he definitely didn't want Lao Ye, who was also a teacher and friend, to die!
Xu Xi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, yes, it's okay to say that the honor points are all good, the title of King Shenwu, except for the emperor, no one can return it to him. If you want to return the title of Shenwu King to him, you must Lao Ye recognize him first, and the law of the system is that you can only truly recognize him before you die!
"Danxia, let's go!" Xu Xi's hairs stood on end, he would rather not have those things that were returned, Lao Ye, don't die: "Let's rush to the Forbidden City as fast as possible!" ”
Danxia didn't ask why, and without hesitation, she and Xu Xi galloped towards the Forbidden City at the fastest speed!
On the official road along the way, players passing by saw two galloping whirlwinds rushing by, which was more than twice the speed of ordinary horses.
Xu Xi's roaring voice echoed: "Hurry up, hurry up!" ”
He has been forced by the system to attack Ah Sheng, and he doesn't want to make another torturous choice!
Ah Sheng and Lao Ye are the two NPCs he is most familiar with in the game, and they have the deepest and best friendship.
Ah Sheng has had an accident, and he definitely doesn't want Lao Ye to have another accident.
Players saw a peculiar landscape on the official road, some people didn't even ride horses, and ran wildly all the way with their feet.
"It's just a fool, there is no limit to the brains!" This is what the player commented.
The brain-dead duo is Xu Xi and Danxia. Their horses are all the top war horses, and their speed is the best in the world, but that does not mean that their horses can always run without limits, and they always have to rest.
When Jueying needed to rest, Xu Xi and Danxia had to rely on their feet to run, allowing them to ride empty and rest.
Fortunately, Xu Xi and Danxia are already at the Dao level, and in terms of short-range sprint ability, they may not be inferior to good horses, and may even be better because of the uniqueness of light skills. In long-distance galloping, it is not as good as a war horse, but Xu Xi's road-level internal force has a long history, even if he takes Danxia, who is not able to run, it is not a problem to do a certain distance of galloping.
It's just a day and night, running towards the Forbidden City without reservation.
In the long-distance gallop, Danxia felt more and more that the internal force was getting closer and closer to the edge of breakthrough.
Danxia had already learned the reason why Xu Xi was in a hurry, and she, who was emotional, naturally supported Xu Xi unreservedly.
Danxia has two archery masters in the game, one is Li Guang of the army, and the other is in the rivers and lakes. Li Guang has died in battle in the past few years, and when Li Guang died in battle, Danxia's discomfort was not much worse than Xu Xi's, so she knew Xu Xi's feelings very well.
The duo, known to players as a brain-dead duo, ran as far in a straight line as they could. There weren't many good things along the way, but some of the player fights and gang fights that happened on the city streets and the official roads in the suburbs were quite frequent.
I don't know if any players realize that Xu Xi is relying on high-intensity and high-level continuous fighting, so he can break through from the weakest to the level of the Dao level in just one or two years, and then become recognized as the number one master in the world!
At present, there are really many players who are desperately following Xu Xi's crazy upgrade route, and the efficiency is still greatly improved, and the resurrection is also very fast, but one of the reasons why Xu Xi can upgrade madly is also the residual experience and realm that cheer for you. Therefore, those players complained that Xu Xi rose fast, but they were not so fast.
Fortunately, these players' struggles and gang fights can't stop Xu Xi and Danxia, you know, in half a year, all the Dao-level players in Dongtu add up to less than twenty.
Along the way, I even encountered several waves of battles from top players, but this still couldn't stop Xu Xi and Danxia, and they almost killed the people who stood in the way, and broke through continuously at the fastest speed!
After such a bombardment breakthrough, when Xu Xi and Danxia were about to approach the Forbidden City, there was less fighting in the rivers and lakes, that is, seeing the brain-dead duo whose reputation had just spread, the players who were already in full swing also hurriedly dodged to the side!
Of course, Xu Xi and Danxia will not entangle with them, as long as they are willing to get out of the way, and do not hinder them from rushing to the Forbidden City, even if the sky is shattered, it has nothing to do with him.
The brothers of the Shenzhou Society are distributed all over the place, and when they saw this brain-dead duo, they naturally recognized their human skin masks, and sent congratulatory messages one after another: "Congratulations on becoming the legendary brain-dead duo!" ”
"Get out!" Danxia was gentle and tranquil, but Xu Xi was not a gentleman, and scolded the past.
The congregation of Shenzhou did not mention it.
Xu Xi was not in the mood to joke, but felt extremely heavy.
The Demon Night Star who was wandering around the Forbidden City helped him to investigate, and he was still in the Forbidden City, but he had received an order from Ye Gucheng to rush to Dongsheng District to carry out a mission. The old demon couldn't stop it desperately, but was put down by Zero Zero.
You have to rush and intercept the zero hair, otherwise Lao Ye's safety will not be guaranteed.
The Forbidden City finally appeared in Xu Xi's sight!
He thought about it, and in order to save time, he quickly handed the sword jade to Danxia: "Danxia, please help me go to the east gate to intercept the zero hair, and bring him back to the palace at all costs!" ”
"Good!" Danxia agreed softly and rushed to the east gate.
Xu Xi rushed straight into the city, the Demon Night Star was already waiting for him at the city gate, Xu Xi directly handed over the Jueying to him and took him to the inn for fostering, and quickly rushed to the palace with his skills!
Just came to the gate of the palace and was about to enter, Danxia sent a message: "Lao Xi, no, I can't stop him, but he handcuffed him." ”
"Kendama is invalid?" Xu Xi was taken aback, could it be that this task could only be completed by him himself, and others could not interfere at all?
"It didn't work!" Danxia had a wry smile in her tone.
"Holy!" Xu Xi stomped his feet, looked at the palace, gritted his teeth and turned around and rushed to the east gate.
Saving people is like fighting fire, if Ah Sheng is not cheating to death, with Lao Ye's martial arts, no one can kill him. If Ah Sheng made a move, there would be no zero shots, and no one would be able to stop it.
Fei also rushed to the east gate, Danxia was helplessly stared at by the NPCs of the Yamen, and the forbidden lock was handcuffing her.
As soon as Danxia raised her hand, she returned the sword jade to Xu Xi, Xu Xi lit up the sword jade and shouted: "Let her go!" ”
"Yes, sir!" The NPC immediately released the person respectfully.
Xu Xi was stunned, Jian Yu was effective, it seems that this mission is indeed a "welfare" that he completed alone.
Danxia quickly pointed and said: "He is on the official road, and he has probably walked two miles!" ”
Xu Xi nodded, used his skills to chase along the way, and sure enough, he saw a melancholy prince walking on the official road with a burden!
grabbed this guy, and before the melancholy of the sporadic hair could be transformed into a surprise, he saw Jianyu and immediately turned over and bowed down!
Really!
Xu Xi smiled bitterly, this task could really only be completed by him alone: "Brother Fa, don't ask anything, the emperor is in danger, you can go back with me immediately!" ”
"The emperor is in danger? It's great......" Zero Hair jumped three feet high, felt that something was wrong, and sneered: "Meet, I mean, let me protect the emperor today!" ”
"Let's go!" Xu Xi was impatient that this guy was running too slowly, so he carried him and ran out of a smoke dragon, bumping into Danxia halfway, he smiled apologetically at Danxia: "You go with me to try it!" ”
This time, when he came directly to the outside of the palace, Xu Xi lit up the sword jade, and rushed in with Danxia carrying the shiny zero hair on his head! The guards didn't stop them.
Fortunately, Xu Xi has been to the palace countless times, and he has a little taste of his own back garden, plus sporadic guidance, and soon rushed to the place where Lao Ye was dealing with business.
No one!
Zero Hair patted his head: "By the way, at this time, the emperor usually accompanies the queen in the imperial garden!" ”
Xu Xi almost wanted to slap this kid to death, making such a mistake at such a critical time!
I had to carry this guy and continue to run in circles, and after a long time, I ran outside the imperial garden, and a guard was squatting to guard it.
Xu Xi lit up the sword jade, but this time it didn't work very well, the guard stiffened his neck and said: "This is the emperor's own ** generation, no one is allowed to disturb him and the queen at this time!" ”
"Holy!" Xu Xi scolded!
"Rush in!" Zero Hair has a bad idea, but it's the only bad idea that seems to work.
Xu Xi unceremoniously directly overturned the guard and rushed into the imperial garden.
Sirens sounded everywhere in the palace, and the sound of assassins and arresting assassins was endless.
However, at this moment, the demon moth came out again, and slapped Xu Xi's thigh: "Oh no, the forbidden god locked me at home!" ”
Zero Zero's words made Xu Xi almost vomit blood, and before he was tired to death, he felt that he was about to be killed and disabled by Zero Zero.
Just as he was about to turn to look for Komoriko, he suddenly heard a conversation in the Imperial Garden!
It was the voice of Lao Ye and the queen talking, Lao Ye's tone was calm, and his breath swept over: "Who is it, come out!" ”
Xu Xi dragged the scattered hair out like a mop, and saw that Lao Ye, who was with the queen, was unharmed, and finally breathed a sigh of relief: "City Lord, it's great that you're okay!" ”
Ye Gucheng's eyes lit up: "What happened?" ”
Xu Xi's mouth squirmed for a long time, but he didn't know where to start, and sighed: "It's hard to say, this matter is related to the undefeated ...... East."
"Who is she?" Lao Ye's eyes were like electricity, swept over Danxia, and said lightly.
"A friend in the rivers and lakes!" Xu Xi replied, thinking to himself that his guess was all wrong?
This is unreasonable, Xu Xi unknowingly became a member of the Reasonable Party, silently straightened out all the clues, and still came to an almost unanimous conclusion.
It's just that Lao Ye is fine, if Ah Sheng hadn't died, with Ah Sheng's tutorial, I'm afraid he would have rushed to the Forbidden City a long time ago.
Xu Xi paused for a long time, but he really didn't know what to say. Seeing that this sporadic eyesight is good, I don't know where to take out Xiao Senzi and entangle!
Xiao Senzi smiled faintly.
"Don't talk about it yet!" Lao Ye treats the queen well, which is enviable, he waved his hand to Xiao Senzi: "Send the queen back!" ”
Xiao Senzi smiled slightly, his gaze leisurely swept over Xu Xi and Lao Ye and Zero Hair's faces, not moving at all!
Xu Xi stared at Xiao Senzi, Ye Gucheng slowly turned his face, his eyes fell on Xiao Senzi's face, and Sen Ran said, "Who are you!" ”
Xiao Senzi showed Bai Sensen's teeth and smiled softly: "I am not enough to worry about my name, but I am the right envoy of the Eastern Sect Leader!" ”
"Today, I will make a plan for the Eastern Sect Master before his death, and come to take the life of the Ye City Lord."
A bolt from the blue!
Xu Xi's mind was dizzy for a while, yes, the left and right envoys of the Sun and Moon God Sect, only Xiang Wentian appeared in both the film and the original book, and the mysterious right envoy never appeared.
Pity him, he thought that Xiao Senzi would be the next generation of Dongfang Undefeated, but it turned out that he was very wrong from the beginning.
It turned out that one of the purposes of Dongfang Undefeated to instigate the rebellion in Zhenbei District was to send Xiao Senzi to the palace, and then become a trusted eunuch of Ye Gucheng.
Xu Xi's mind was confused all of a sudden, and the place that was originally unknown suddenly came to his senses!
(To be continued)
