001. This kind of development is really not surprising at all...

"So, I'm crossing over, am I?" Bai Xiaoqiu looked at the tall and dense trees around him, as well as the grass that could pop out of two Demacia at any time before his knees, and couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth, "But, I can cross it by playing a PSP for Mao!! ”

Here's the thing

Bai Xiaoqiu is a graduate student majoring in archaeology, and there are a lot of things to learn in a major like theirs, and from time to time he has to go to the wilderness to investigate. Bai Xiaoqiu, as their mentor's protΓ©gΓ©, although he has not yet graduated, he will be carried around the country by his mentor five miles away.

Just a few days before Bai Xiaoqiu's crossing, the mentor suddenly received information that there was a super energy reaction in a deep mountain and old forest, let's say that ancient ruins had been discovered. So after Bai Xiaoqiu tried to knock himself unconscious against the wall to escape the business trip attempt, he was ...... by his mentor An old man over 50 years old but can easily complete 80 one-handed pull-ups...... Dragged out the door with his trouser legs.

Bai Xiaoqiu's resistance to going out for inspection was not because he was afraid of danger or anything, but mainly because this guy was too lazy. After all, this kind of investigation like Bai Xiaoqiu and their conduct would not be dangerous, but it was proper to be dirty and tired.

But the probability is so subtle, just like some kind of small set of gatekeepers has a success rate of up to 99%, but there are always a few unlucky people who accidentally kill people every day, this time Bai Xiaoqiu played the role of a tragic unlucky egg

At the beginning of the expedition, it went very smoothly and there were no anomalies. But just as it was near the end, a group of people from the expedition team suddenly discovered a rather peculiar totem stone pillar.

The stone pillar was about two meters high, and its surface was not depicted with the common beast totems such as dragons, phoenixes, tigers and leopards, but a large area of dark and twisted, rather abstract and strange patterns. Bai Xiaoqiu leaned over and took a closer look, vaguely feeling that those patterns were made up of a patchwork of multiple weapons.

The authenticity of this monument has been established before, so that this never-before-discovered totemic pattern is of great research value. The old professor was immediately excited, and after ordering everyone to suspend the investigation and rest in place, he ran out to contact his superiors.

Bai Xiaoqiu was left and right, and found that he didn't know a good friend, and he didn't have a good-looking girl, and after doing nothing for a long time, he decisively found a corner and took out the PSP to play Monster Hunter.

This is an action game with the theme of hunting monsters, and Devil May Cry, Ninja Dragon, Bayonettatta and other similar games with gorgeous actions and smooth combos, the protagonist in Monster Hunter moves slowly as if playing Tai Chi, most of the moves have a great stiffness, and the action is ordinary and simple to give people a strong sense of realism.

That's right, realism is one of the biggest charms of this game.

Although there are inevitably many distortions in the game as a game, it can still be seen that the game maker team strives to restore a real hunting experience for the player, even if the object of the hunt itself is a monster that cannot exist in reality.

There is no swarm of mobs rushing over in the game, all you have to do is hunt all kinds of monsters in different environments such as volcanoes and grasslands. Most of the monsters' moves are extremely threatening, and players can often only seize the opportunity to slash twice during the stun period before and after the monster's move, and change places with one shot, and those combos that are not very flashy are only a little leeway when the monster is in an abnormal state.

At the same time, the monsters' super attack power and thick faceless and skinless health also make most hunters have to make careful preparations before the hunt begins - all kinds of potions, dye balls for tracking monsters, various trap explosives, etc., and at the same time, according to the monsters' weaknesses, types, moves and other characteristics, targeted selection of different weapons and equipment.

All of these settings allow players to feel the strength of the monsters and their own weakness, making every hunt seem incredibly real and challenging.

However, this setting also makes the difficulty of the game quite ghostly, and it is normal to be sent home by a dragon car after more than half an hour of rushing face, and then you can only take the task again and repeat the cycle. If you can hold on to this cycle more than 30 times and still haven't smashed the handle in a rage, then congratulations, you've evolved into a glorious jitter.

Bai Xiaoqiu has just entered the middle stage of shaking m, and he belongs to the kind of situation where he has escaped from the situation where the rookie is less than the top and more than the bottom. And what he didn't realize at the moment was that in the near future, he would be personally involved in a hunting activity that was much more exciting than a game

Just when Bai Xiaoqiu had just turned on the game console and entered the game interface, the totem stone pillar eight feet away from him suddenly shot out a white light special effect of the level of Kong Lianshun and enveloped him, and after the light dissipated, Bai Xiaoqiu had disappeared, leaving a crowd of stunned onlookers and broken glasses.

……

"Yarn! I'm just playing a PSP, what's in your way!! ”

After Bai Xiaoqiu symbolically roared and expressed his dissatisfaction with the crossing, he had already calmed down: "Looking at the environment, I should be in some kind of primeval forest now, according to the routine in the novel, and then either a monster suddenly pops out and is activated by me to kill the remnants of the blood, or I should meet some mercenary group or hunter uncle who happened to pass by and take me out of the forest."

As soon as Bai Xiaoqiu thought of this, he heard a sound from the grass not far away, a Galen who was nearly two meters tall, and if he wasn't wearing clothes, he would even be mistaken for a big bear, no, it was the hunter uncle who jumped out of the grass.

"Yo, boy, are you lost?" This uncle's smile matches his appearance very well, and he is all stupid.

The corners of Bai Xiaoqiu's mouth twitched again: "Your old man appeared a little too punctually."

The hunter uncle was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Are you waiting for me? But I don't know you, you're not from the village, are you? ”

"No," Bai Xiaoqiu was in no mood to complain: "Please don't worry about the question just now, I'm really lost, if you can, I hope you can help me, I'm already hungry." ”

"Oh, it's really a lost boy" The uncle glanced Bai Xiaoqiu up and down, "Okay, you don't look like a bad person when you dress and talk, you can go back to the village with me." ”

Bai Xiaoqiu looked at the canvas camouflage outdoor clothes specially prepared on his body to facilitate field work, and then looked at the coarse cloth clothes that were common in ancient costume films of the hunter uncle, and a drop of cold sweat was already flowing on his head.

[Let's not talk about it, I'm obviously very suspicious in this dress, and the painting style is completely different from yours! ] What's going on with your carefree attitude!! 】

Of course, Bai Xiaoqiu would not be stupid enough to say this, and after silently spitting in his heart, he followed the hunter uncle's ass back to the village.

……

"Oh, so this young man was rescued by you from the forest" The old man in front of him with a goatee, less than Bai Xiaoqiu's chin, thin and withered, is the village chief of Yishan Village, after listening to the hunter's uncle's statement, he looked at Bai Xiaoqiu from head to toe, ignoring Bai Xiaoqiu's appearance that was not in the same dimension as them at all, and nodded slightly, "Well, you really don't look like a bad person."

(Bai Xiaoqiu shouted frantically in his heart at this time: [So there is no one in your village with good eyes, right?] I myself feel suspicious, hey!! If you are short-sighted, don't learn from others to judge people by their appearance, hey!! 】)

"Since Erniu (that is, the hunter's uncle) has vouched for you, you will stay in the village for the time being and recuperate for two days. After that, do what you can to make ends meet. ”

Bai Xiaoqiu nodded and complained about it, but he was still very grateful to the village chief and the hunter uncle for being willing to take him in.

Under the leadership of the hunter Uncle Erniu, Bai Xiaoqiu came to a vacant guest room and stayed for the time being. After the hunter uncle left, Bai Xiaoqiu immediately checked his body.

"The appearance, height, and small ** have not changed, and the clothes he is wearing are the same as before, well, it should be a physical crossing" After confirming that he was still Bai Xiaoqiu, he rummaged through the plug-in all over his body: "Plug-in, where are you?" I can't live without you!! ”

As a result, after this toss, Bai Xiaoqiu did not find the plug-in, but found a large tattoo on his body that spread throughout his upper body.

"This pattern looks exactly like the one on the totem pillar!!" Bai Xiaoqiu took off his clothes and stared at his chest, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt that this tattoo was familiar.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you" Uncle Hunter suddenly remembered that he didn't tell Bai Xiaoqiu about the arrangements for breakfast tomorrow, and when he turned around and went back to the house, he happened to see Bai Xiaoqiu twisting his neck to look at his back, "What are you doing?" ”

"Ugh"

Before Bai Xiaoqiu could reply, Uncle Hunter suddenly saw the tattoo on Bai Xiaoqiu's body, "I seem to have seen this tattoo of yours somewhere." ”

"Huh?!" Bai Xiaoqiu was in a hurry, this tattoo was exactly the same as the pattern on the totem stone pillar that the guide zhΓ¬ crossed through, it was likely to be a clue about why he crossed here, Bai Xiaoqiu had to find out its origin no matter what, and now when he heard that the hunter uncle seemed to know something, he immediately became excited, "Have you seen this tattoo?!" ”

"No," Uncle Hunter shook his head, took two steps forward and pointed to Bai Xiaoqiu's chest and said, "I seem to have seen this knife on your tattoo, but I can't remember where it is." ”

Bai Xiaoqiu looked down with his hand, and found that the tattoo on his chest was indeed a long knife with a narrow blade, but it was not easy to see when mixed with other patterns.

"If you think about it, you can't remember where you've seen it?" Bai Xiaoqiu asked.

"Well, I can't remember." Uncle Hunter said: "Otherwise, I'll go back and remember it again, and I'll let you know as soon as I remember." ”

Bai Xiaoqiu nodded helplessly, it can only be like this for now.

――――――――――――――――――――――――

Several days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Bai Xiaoqiu has gradually adapted to life in the other world, and from the village chief, the hunter uncle and others, he has also learned a lot of knowledge about this world.

Although this world is very similar to ancient China in terms of cultural background and other aspects, it is by no means in any time period known to us. In other words, the place that Bai Xiaoqiu crossed into was a complete otherworld, completely unrelated to ancient China, although there were many places that were indeed very similar.

The living conditions of the villagers in the village are no different from the living conditions of the ancient people imagined by Bai Xiaoqiu, farming for farming, and raising silkworms for silkworms. At the beginning, Bai Xiaoqiu was still a little puzzled, because Mao was playing Monster Hunter when he crossed by himself, but the world he crossed over to had a feeling that he couldn't beat Monster Hunter. It wasn't until one day that Bai Xiaoqiu found a shiny gun and a row of strange-shaped monster heads on the wall of the village chief's house, that he realized that this was the Monster Hunter China Division!

This discovery made Bai Xiaoqiu both excited and excited because as a loyal fan of a monster hunter (although he had only been in the pit for a long time), it was a very touching thing to be able to hunt those monsters of all kinds in reality, and the egg pain was because Bai Xiaoqiu's golden finger of this product had not yet been revealed, probably because it had not yet arrived?

Damn, I said that I don't need Shentong Express!

In the absence of a golden finger, no matter how excited Bai Xiaoqiu was, he could only honestly nest in the village and follow the village chief's arrangement to do some work within his ability.

Yishan Village is said to be a village, but in Bai Xiaoqiu's opinion, it is actually no different from a small town, the place is big, there are many people, and all kinds of facilities are also very complete, when Bai Xiaoqiu was wandering, he found at least the farm, hot springs, weapon shops and open-pit mining areas, which appeared in the 4 kinds of functional places in the game, and he thought that the other facilities should not be able to run, but he has not found it for the time being.

And Bai Xiaoqiu's current job is to help mine in the village's mines.

This job is really not easy, fortunately, when he was on the earth, he often had to run around the mountains with equipment on his back, and his body bones were barely strong, plus it may be because of the crossing, Bai Xiaoqiu's strength is getting bigger and bigger day by day, and although mining is hard, it doesn't tire him.

Bai Xiaoqiu had just finished half of his work that day, when he suddenly heard the old village chief outside the mine calling him.

"Xiaobai, is there anything you are not used to in the life in the village?" After meeting, the old village chief first greeted him.

"No, it's all good." Bai Xiaoqiu smiled and said.

"Well, that's good." After the old village chief nodded, his face suddenly became stern, "The New Year is approaching, and it may not be too peaceful in the village recently." ”

"The end of the year is coming?" If the old village chief didn't say it, Bai Xiaoqiu really wouldn't have realized that the New Year was coming. Although it had just snowed a while ago, the temperature in the village had always been very warm, and Bai Xiaoqiu didn't feel cold at all when he only wore a single coat, he asked tentatively, "What does that mean?" ”

After so many days of contact, the old village chief had already discovered that Bai Xiaoqiu didn't know anything about all kinds of knowledge in this world, otherwise he wouldn't have come to inform Bai Xiaoqiu of such a common-sense thing. Fortunately, the old village chief didn't care about Bai Xiaoqiu's origin at all, he patted Bai Xiaoqiu's shoulder and explained: "The New Year is approaching, and the Nian Beast is coming."

"Nani ?!!"
