Chapter 5: The Counsel of the Mysterious Man
Miken vine boundary, across the river city.
A few years ago, there were frequent wars in this city, and the people were struggling to make a living. Nowadays, all the buildings have been demolished and rebuilt, but it is impossible to see the decadence of the war and chaos many years ago.
Mu Jiujiu crossed the bargaining, one market after another, and came to the center of the city.
Everything here is new and curious to her now.
She really wanted to say sorry to the staff in the store at the beginning. At first, I suspected that I was buying some kind of bells and whistles, but I didn't expect it to be like this......
Impressive.
Even the NPCs walking on the street are like real people.
Before, Mu Jiujiu tried to talk to a passing NPC grandfather, and found that the other party was not stiff at all, and he was not the kind of NPC who would only repeat a few words at all.
The other party and her talked from "the climate and customs of the Qianteng world" to "the competitive grandson of his own family was accepted as a disciple of the Yue Jian Sect, and he is really a glorious ancestor...... If it weren't for Mu Jiujiu saying that he still had something to do, the old man would have pulled her to chat all day.
Look, even a common NPC passing by has its own story!
This game! It's so real!
"System-kun, do you know a copy of this game?" Mu Jiujiu asked, after all, it was not a way for her to wander around aimlessly like this.
System: "? ”
Mu Jiujiu saw that the system was silent, and then asked: "Can you tell me what the main quest of the game is, I should be able to pick up the novice quest now, right?" ”
System: "??? "What the hell.
Seeing that the system didn't answer again, Mu Jiujiu thought to himself: "Could it be that this game needs me to explore by myself, and everything has nothing to say for the time being?" ”
It's okay this way, it's just a lot more unknown and challenging.
Mu Jiujiu: "Can you tell me about the world map here?" ”
The heart of the system: "There is finally one I can understand!" ”
"Dear cutie, the world you are in at the moment, number 111. As far as is known, it is divided into two major realms: the Mitoji Realm and the Fuma Realm. ”
I had heard this point mentioned by the system before, and Mu Jiujiu nodded and motioned for it to continue.
"The world where you are currently located has a mild climate and many vines. During this period, there were countless sect pavilions, and each sect had different cultivation techniques. Among them, the more prosperous ones are the East Holy Palace, the Yue Sword Sect, the Cangyun Palace, and the Snow Shelter Valley. At the northernmost end of the Migration Realm, it is the activity place of the people of the Demon Realm, and in the northwest, it is the activity place of the people of the Demon Realm. To the easternmost is a vast ocean, which is also the boundary between Fuma and Fuma. ”
"Since the cutie is new to this world, I kindly recommend that you visit the Treasure Pavilion near here. As the name suggests, the Treasure Pavilion specializes in selling rare treasures, exercises and weapons. The cutie can go and buy some needed items. ”
"System-kun, you have a point, but can you tell me what the trading currency is here?" Mu Jiujiu silently added.
She is penniless now!
System: "......"
"At present, the storage ring of the target person has not been detected, please be self-reliant, self-reliant, come on~"
What the hell is the storage ring, and why should she have this kind of thing on her?
Is it a newbie item?
But after she asked about the system, the other party remained eerily silent again.
Okay, I'll just keep hanging out.
There are many shops along the way, and there are many hawkers on the streets.
Mu Jiujiu was dazzled, but he was shy in his pocket, so he could only look at it.
She reached out and removed the willow leaf from the tip of her hair, then looked up at the plaque in front of her.
- Gentleman's Teahouse.
Several guests dressed in brocade robes walked through the main entrance and handed over invitations to the waiters. The people who came were all literati and elegant guests who seemed to have quite a status.
However, what attracted the attention of Mu Jiujiu was not this group of literati and artists, but another person who looked at the Junzi Teahouse.
The man was dressed in coarse linen clothes, and his movements were casual, but his every move was quite charming.
At this moment, it is clear that he is just standing there quietly, but he gives people a different temperament from the people around him.
With his keen intuition, Mu Jiujiu thinks that this person is definitely not simple!
At first glance, it is a key NPC character!
Mu Jiujiu walked towards him, intending to talk to him. But before she could think of the opening remarks she should have, the other party's eyes looked over-
She froze.
These eyes are too calm.
This reminds Mujiujiu of the majestic mountains. It has gone through countless historical changes, but it has always stood quietly in its place.
It sees everything, but it doesn't say a word.
It may seem strange to describe it like this, but this is how the man in front of her feels for her.
Although his face is young, his eyes are full of vicissitudes.
Probably because they had been silent with each other for too long, Mu Jiujiu was a little at a loss.
“…… Hi. She waved at the other man.
System Jun said that this action looks a bit silly.
However, this does not affect the self-feeling of the students who are happy about the wine.
The man chuckled.
"This ...... Senior, I have been seeing you for a long time looking at this gentleman's teahouse, so I have doubts, so I asked. Eventually, Mu Jiujiu spoke.
The man looked at her with interest: "It's just a revisit to the old place, remembering some people and the past, and feeling emotional." ”
Mu Jiujiu: "Could it be that he is cowardly in his hometown? ”
"Hometown cowardice...... the man pondered for a moment, then replied with a smile: "It's a bit similar, Xiaoyou's words are a little interesting." ”
"The reason why the predecessors revisited the old place, is it because they want to catch up with their original friends?" Mu Jiujiu asked casually, but he thought in his heart how to trigger the task.
After Mu Jiujiu finished saying this, the man was silent.
Halfway through, she heard him say with some difficulty, "...... I wish I would never see my old friend again. ”
"Why?" Mu Jiujiu asked reflexively, but as soon as he said it, he felt that he had overstepped it. After all, this is someone else's private matter, if you pull out something unspeakable, if you have the hatred of taking your wife or something, how embarrassing it is......
Wrong! Isn't the other party an NPC, why does she still think about the feelings of a bunch of data?
"As for the sake of ...... I was a man who was dying soon, and when I was reunited, I was separated again, which only added to my sorrow. Therefore, they are not born like this, and they will not see each other again. ”
Soon!? Mu Jiujiu keenly captured this word, knowing that this must be the key point of the trigger mission. I was about to ask further, but I heard the man divert the topic.
"Xiaoyou doesn't look like people here." The man glanced meaningfully at Mu Jiujiu.
Mu Jiu said that of course she doesn't belong here, she is a player.
This person should mean that she is not like a local, right?
But as soon as she came here, her costume was changed by the system to look similar to the people around her, how did she see it?
Mu Jiujiu remembered the other realm that the system said before, so he spoke: "Don't hide it, I'm from the Fujian realm, and I feel like I'm here to move vines...... The world is so vast, I want to see more people or things that I have never seen in my life in my life, so that this life will be in vain. ”
Hear no, the world is so big, she wants to go and see it!
The man chuckled when he heard this, and said meaningfully: "I am also from the Fujian realm, so it seems that I am very close to Xiaoyou." ”
Mu Jiujiu: "......" this luck.
Fortunately, the man didn't intend to get to the bottom of it, and said slowly: "It's a coincidence that I met Xiaoyou today, since that's the case, then I'll give you a piece of advice." ”
"Little friends came here by chance, don't indulge in it, get out in time." His eyes were like bottomless water.
I only heard the man say in a deep voice: "Sometimes the deeper the emotional bond, some choices may put you into it." ”
"......" Mu Jiujiu felt creepy in his heart after hearing this, what does this mean!?
After the man said this, he seemed to think of something, pondered for a moment, and added: "However, there is no absolute right path in the world, and I am just standing in my perspective to deny some things that I think are meaningless at the moment. In the end, it depends on the choice of Xiaoyou. ”
“…… Yes? Mu Jiujiu looked confused.
After that, the man stopped talking.
Mu Jiujiu was keenly aware that his eyes seemed to be a little older.
This is not a subjective assumption, but a feeling that is difficult to describe in words.
Emotional bonds? Get in on your own?
Mu Jiujiu thought to himself: "I can't give up real life for the sake of a game." ”
How can this man speak inexplicably......
Does he see that I'm a player?
How can it be!?
In the knowledge of NPCs, there should be no such concept, right?
Mu Jiujiu thought about it, maybe this person was just pretending to be a ghost, or maybe she was thinking deeply?
When the man had said this, he said no more.
He looked up and looked somewhere in the Junzi Teahouse.
"There are still important things to do today, so don't leave it at that."
The man grabbed the waiter and flipped over the wall with a tap of his toes. An unknown shadow disappeared into the backyard.
All of this happens in the light of light.
Mu Jiujiu feels that the whole person is not good!
First of all, this person is a master, and he really didn't see the wrong person.
Secondly......
This NPC senior, you haven't given me a task yet, at least give me a beginner package......
No, this is a special plot, I have to chase it!
Mu Jiujiu hurriedly went, but was stopped by the waiter outside the Junzi Teahouse.
The waiter smiled politely: "This guest, do you have an invitation?" ”
Mu Jiujiu: "......"
