Chapter 29: The Underground Village of Hope (1)
"Big brother, look! Lantern? That's a lantern! ”
Before Chu Tian could speak, Bai Xiaofan had already discovered the light that suddenly lit up.
As a rough estimate, they were at least five hundred meters away from the lantern. What does this mean? This means that the place they are in at the moment is extremely wide, such a wide area, it is simply a dungeon!
The secret passage in the square connected to another hidden secret passage, and the other hidden secret passage actually led them into the underground world. It's incredible, it's more like a fantasy.
But if you think about it, it seems that nothing is impossible, after all, this is what others see as a "game world", and as long as the people who make the game are happy, they can also build a hell under the Hopeless Village.
Bai Xiaofan suddenly didn't want to move forward, not that he was afraid, but that he was a little upset. If he had known that this hidden task was so complicated, he might not have accepted it. From the beginning to the present, he feels that he has been played by "people" again and again.
The feeling made him uncomfortable and even disgusted.
He had the heart to leave and no longer care about the of Hopeless Village, but when he thought of the hardships he had come along the way, he wanted to see what kind of guy the final boss of this mission was. If you don't kill it, how can you solve the hatred in his heart?
"Big brother, why don't you speak? There's a lantern there, should we go over and have a look? ”
Bai Xiaofan took out the red big knife and held it in his hand, and then said coldly: "Go, let's go and see what is going on now." ”
The two of them stopped talking nonsense and immediately walked briskly towards the location of the lantern.
They walked very fast, a distance of a few hundred meters is a matter of a minute or two.
Seeing that the lantern was getting closer and closer, the people next to the lantern gradually became clearer.
If you look closely, it is a man in a black cloak, his entire body, including his face, is hidden under the cloak, and I don't know what he looks like, let alone who he is.
Chu Tian looked at the person carrying the lantern, and whispered beside Bai Xiaofan: "Big brother, this guy shouldn't be a boss, right?" If it's not a boss, could it be an NPC? ”
Hearing this, Bai Xiaofan frowned and said, "I can't say for sure, let's wait for the opportunity to act!" ”
After a few more seconds, they were less than five meters away from the man carrying the lantern, but even from such a close distance, they couldn't make out the guy's appearance.
Bai Xiaofan tightened the red big knife in his hand, who knows if he will do it directly.
Chu Tian's biggest problem with this talk is that he can't control his mouth.
I don't know where he got the courage, so he said directly: "Hey, who are you?" How did you end up here? Waiting for us? ”
Yes, he asked, but it saved Bai Xiaofan from speaking again.
Hearing this, the man carrying the lantern smiled and said, "I am the guide of Hope Village, and anyone who enters here is brought into the village by me." Welcome! ”
"Hope Village? What Hope Village? Big brother, aren't we in Hopeless Village? ”
When Chu Tian heard this, he immediately couldn't help but ask Bai Xiaofan.
Bai Xiaofan didn't answer his question, but walked forward quickly and stopped less than two meters away from the lantern.
"You say you're the guide of Hope Village? So where is Hope Village? ”
Hearing this, the guide smiled again: "Hope Village is behind me, there is full of hope, and it is a paradise on earth. Come with me, young man. I take you to find hope, to welcome happiness. ”
Bai Xiaofan sneered and said, "In a place where there is not even light, what hope is there?" What kind of paradise is a cold and dark place? Tell me honestly, who you really are. ”
With that, he aimed the tip of the broadsword directly at the guide.
The guide smiled and said, "Here, you can't kill anyone, including me." Young man, since you are here, come with me obediently. Oh, by the way, I forgot to tell you, we wish there was a well in the village, and I heard that there was a dragon living in it. Don't you want to check it out? ”
"Shenlong? The ancient well that was not found in the Hopeless Village is in this so-called Hope Village? Could it be that this Hope Village is my destination? ”
Bai Xiaofan thought for a while, and then said coldly: "Okay, I'll go with you to have a look." I'd like to see what the promised land you call really like. ”
The guide didn't say anything more, but turned around and walked forward with the lantern in his hand.
Seeing this, Bai Xiaofan hurriedly said to Chu Tian: "Be careful, there is something strange about this place." This guide is even more eccentric. ”
When Chu Tian heard this, he immediately asked in a low voice, "Big brother, what's so strange about this guy?" Talking weirdly? ”
Bai Xiaofan didn't have the patience to explain, and only replied: "He's not human!" ”
"What? He's not human? So what is he? Eh, big brother, you wait for me. Don't go so fast, I'm scared! ”
Bai Xiaofan and Chu Tian followed the guide and kept walking forward, and with each step forward, they all felt that the terrain was getting lower and lower, and the yin qi was getting heavier and heavier.
After walking like this for about ten minutes, they came to a stone monument under the guidance of the guide.
Bai Xiaofan deliberately took a look at the stele with a bracelet, and saw three big characters and four small characters written on it.
"Hope Village! Where the soul returns! ”
The three big characters of "Hope Village" are easy to understand, and that is the name of the village. But how to explain this "soul home"?
Bai Xiaofan thought about it secretly, and his palms were already sweating unconsciously.
Strange to say, they had just walked past the stone monument, and the front suddenly brightened.
Looking up, it's a big village. There are many big red lanterns hanging in the village, which illuminates the village as a city that never sleeps.
Chu Tian looked forward and said with a smile: "Big brother, this village is really not small. But why did they hang red lanterns in the village? Could it be that there is something to be happy about? ”
Before Bai Xiaofan could speak, the guide who was walking in front suddenly interjected: "The reason why the village is lit up is actually to welcome you. Every guest who enters our hope village will be warmly welcomed by us. I hope you have a good time in the village, it is a real paradise. ”
Bai Xiaofan was already very sure that this guide was an NPC, because his words were relatively straightforward, as if they had been designed a long time ago.
Since there are NPCs here, it means that this is likely to be the ultimate place to complete the quest "Rescue Hopeless Village".
He is looking forward to the next plot more and more, and maybe he will be able to see the final boss soon.
But just as he was about to enter the village with great anticipation, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his head.
"If you want to live, don't eat the food or drink the water in the village, or you'll never be able to leave here. Remember, you have to remember! ”
