214 Red Line Mission (B)
After dinner, Lin Xi hid in the pantry and watched everyone go to work overtime, and then secretly walked to the office area where there was basically no one.
Ye Chi's health warehouse is in the compartment of the office, and there is a single sofa bed in it, and he occasionally sleeps there when he works overtime. Thinking that he should still be eating now, Lin Xi dared to go over and knock on the door, otherwise it would be bad if he didn't let the main owner open the door for a long time, but attracted colleagues from other departments.
As she thought, after knocking lightly twice, Ye Chi's voice came from inside: "Come in." β
Lin Xi also took a special look back, and saw that no one pushed the door in, she guessed correctly, Ye Chi was still eating, and it was also the lunch box that Shen Qing brought back from the same treat.
Seeing her come in, Ye Chi was not surprised, but patted the sofa: "Sit first." β
After Lin Xi sat down, he took a few bites to solve the rest of the meal, cleaned up the coffee table table, and then turned around and came back with two more cups of steaming boiled water.
After handing a cup to Lin Xi, Ye Chi said: "I just went to see the forum, it's not that no one has done the marriage task, but most of them have failed, so no one has gotten married yet." β
Lin Xi drank water for a moment, and blinked in surprise: "It's all failed!?" Is this task that difficult? That...... Has anyone summarized the reasons? β
"Nope." Ye Chi shook his head, "I just said that the first level was brushed down, and now it is still in the upgrade stage, there are not many people who do marriage tasks, and no one cares." β
"The first level?" Lin Xi rolled his eyes, and suddenly thought of something: "By the way, I forgot to ask Yue Lao what did you do when he asked you to go in?" β
Although his thoughts jumped too fast, Ye Chi still understood it at one point, and narrated it while thinking about the wording.
Before I didn't listen, I only felt strange, but as soon as I heard Lin Xi, I immediately understood, and after a pause, he smiled and said, "This should be the so-called first level, right?" Test your knowledge of me? β
That's right, it's not the tacit understanding of each other, or the degree of understanding of each other, it's just a test of Ye Chi's understanding of her. Because Yue Lao did the same thing to Ye Chi, the first time he took the same thing out and let him choose what Lin Xi would pick, the second time he served the same food to see if he understood her preferences, and then whether he would subconsciously keep her favorite food and only eat a few other things, and the third time he still put the same books on the table, so that he could guess Lin Xi's choice.
And the reason why they were able to successfully obtain the conditions of the second level, that root was signed, of course, was because Ye Chi passed the test, and each of them met the requirements of the test.
This Lin Xi was not too surprised, because in her own opinion, he was the one who knew the most in the game at present.
Ye Chi also understood after she explained, and rubbed her head with a smile: "You......"
Although he only said these two words, Lin Xi still consciously understood it into a sentence - you are really a person who loves money and food, and then turned to the serious topic after a while: "Then we should be the second level now, where are you in the game?" Are there any small towns nearby? I'm right in town. β
Hearing this, Ye Chi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: "I'm also in a small town...... In this way, it seems that the test of the second level is for us to find each other, and then find the exit together. β
Although she hadn't been out of the town, she had probably seen the surroundings, either the woods or the fields or the rolling hills, and she really didn't see any other town. And the map is also blurry, and even the town where it is currently located is not marked, let alone anything else. Lin Xi nodded with a little headache and said, "It should be like this, then you can only rely on your feelings to find it." β
Ye Chi drank the remaining water in the cup, then took the empty cup in her hand and put it on the coffee table, and then pulled the person to get up: "Don't think too much, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, go back early today to rest, and wait for tomorrow." β
The afternoon was spent in the secret realm of the White Stone Cave Heaven, Lin Xi also felt a little tired and sleepy, and he didn't really want to change the trumpet to practice drawing talismans, so he responded softly when he heard the words: "Okay." β
However, what she didn't expect was that Ye Chi did not send her back directly, but drove to the Grand Theater in the city center, bought a ticket and went in to listen to a temporary concert, and then sent her to the door in the cold night.
And because the concert was not a famous artist, and the music played was also very familiar to Lin Xi, so he was not too excited but had a sense of relief, so that when he got to the car, he fell asleep all the way back, and Ye Chi was a little confused when he woke her up.
"Ah, it's here, then I'll go back, be careful on the road, good night." After Lin Xi, who came back to his senses a little, finished saying what he should have said in one go, he loosened his seat belt and prepared to get out of the car, but his right hand touched the switch of the door, and his left hand was pulled, and the whole person leaned to the left.
Ye Chi turned his head very calmly and kissed her lightly on her lips, and seemed to be quite reluctant to toss and turn for a while before straightening her body, and said softly: "Good night." β
For his second sneak attack, Lin Xi was frightened and a little crying and laughing, looking at his soft eyes, he made a decision in his heart, quickly leaned forward and put a little on the lips with natural color, and then pulled the car door down like an escape, and waved to the sluggish people in the car with a smile before closing the door: "Go back quickly, see you tomorrow." β
Ye Chi smiled helplessly, and waved at her, but he still watched her go upstairs and heard the sound of the door closing, so he cheered up and drove away.
*
Thanks to last night's concert, Lin Xi had a rare very good sleep, and woke up naturally with the biological clock in the morning without even waiting for the alarm clock to go off. And if you sleep well, your spirit is naturally good, and when you enter the game again, you see that it is still a small town where there are no acquaintances around and you can't contact the outside world, and you don't feel how depressed you are, but you are in a good mood and go to eat a bowl of freshly baked beef noodles first, and then set off from the town to find the charm.
Although there is no clear map to guide the way, the good news is that the town has only one road leading to the outside world - that is, it can only go forward, and behind the town there is no mountain to go up at all.
Ah, and I forgot that in this special map, you can't fly with your sword, you can only rely on walking, light skills, or horseback riding.
Thinking that he didn't know what he would encounter on the way, Lin Xi didn't waste his spiritual power with light skills, but summoned the horses that Jiang Han and them bought temporarily, and rode slowly all the way without hurrying.
After a while, Lin Xi rode through the path in the middle of the fields full of green seedlings, and came to a forest with sparse trees and no animals, this forest is connected to the mountain and winds up and down again, it seems quite bumpy and difficult, but this is not the case, this road can be passed all the way, not to mention the flat road, the width of the road is enough for a carriage to pass, and it is easier for her to run alone.
Seeing that he didn't encounter anything strange all the way in, Lin Xi simply sped up and ran along the only way to the depths of the mountain.
She learned Edgeworth very early, so it's very easy to go anywhere, and when she goes out to farm monsters and level up, she fights monsters all the way and delays her speed, so she doesn't go too far. This time, you can't fly with your sword, and you can't blame it, so you can only blindly move forward, and you can really appreciate the size of the map in the game.
When she went online, the game was exactly the middle of the day, and the sky was slowly darkening along the way, and the road ahead was still unknown, and when she looked up, she still saw the towering mountain peaks.
I don't know why, but after nightfall, the mountain is so dark that you can't see your fingers, not at all like outside, even if it's completely dark and there is no light, you can barely see the road. When Lin Xi realized this, he reined in his horse helplessly, walked along the hillside to the small river where he didn't know where he came from and where he was going, and after feeding the horses, he collected some hay and dry branches and came around to make a fire. Fortunately, she is a person who likes to carry a little bit of everything, and since the last time she used candles in the Reincarnation Tower, there has been absolutely no shortage of matches and candles in her bag.
After lighting a fire and starting a fire, Lin Xi took out her own pots and pans and started her picnic experience again.
I added some new ingredients to the town before, then went to the river to touch a fish, held a candle to pick some wild mushrooms and wild vegetables, and simply made two dishes and a bowl of fish noodle soup to solve the dinner problem.
Fortunately, there is no rain or snow here, the temperature is moderate, and even animals are afraid of fire, so after Lin Xi went to get some thicker branches to burn, he spread the wool cloak he bought before on the ground, and he could sleep when he lay down, and it was not bad to look at a dark blue sky if he didn't sleep.
Lin Xi consciously thought very beautifully, and the facts showed that she really thought too beautifully.
As soon as I lay down and looked at the stars, there was a strange "crunch" sound not far away, which was originally very light, but it was a little scary in this silent night.
Lin Xi almost subconsciously jumped up, and the next second, the twin swords that were put aside were pulled out and pointed directly in the direction where the voice came.
"Crunch" again, Lin Xi frowned, just became more and more guarded, the voice became more and more presumptuous, as if he saw her clearly through the light of the fire, and got closer and closer without any scruples.
The mantra of the sword technique move had begun to be recited silently, but at the moment when he was about to swing the sword out, Lin Xi suddenly paused and looked not far ahead with some surprise.
The sound was already close in front of him, and then the firelight Lin Xi could clearly see that it was a person, a man in white who was half stained with blood. He covered his chest with his hands, and there were still blood stains spilling from his fingers, and he obviously regarded Lin Xi as a savior, holding his heavy body and staggering to the fire, before he collapsed in front of Lin Xi's eyes and closed his eyes unconscious.
Even if he thought that it was unlikely that an injured person would suddenly appear in the deep mountains and old forests, but seeing that he looked like he was about to die, Lin Xi still couldn't bear to accept the sword, took the medicine from the bag to help him stop the bleeding, and fed him two more wound medicines.
The night in the game passed quickly, but unfortunately at the foot of the mountain, I couldn't see the spectacular scene of the first sunrise. Seeing that the sky was slowly brightening, Lin Xi added a few more branches to the fire, set up the pot and continued to cook noodles to eat.
When preparing the materials, after inadvertently glancing at the man in white who was still asleep, Lin Xi sighed and made a light chowder for two.
Probably because of the fragrance, when Lin Xi just served the noodles and wanted to call someone up to eat, the man spontaneously opened his eyes, his eyes flashed with a brief confusion, and then he sat up soberly: "Thank you, girl......"
Lin Xi turned his head to look at him, fortunately he didn't have amnesia, knowing that she was the one who saved him and not hurt him, he took out a pair of chopsticks from his bag and handed it over with the big bowl: "By the way, cook an extra bowl, don't waste it." β
He was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he remembered to raise his hand and take it: "Thank you, girl...... In the white smoke of Xiaqu, the girl's life-saving grace will be rewarded after returning to Qufu. β
Lin Xi just wanted to wave his hand to refuse, but suddenly paused again, nodded and smiled instead: "If you go to the mountain, then I will help someone send you back." β
Hearing this, Qu Baiyan's eyes lit up: "Is it really possible?" That's really thanks to the girl, there is no martial arts to be around, and I am separated from my family, I can't go back with the strength of one person, if there is the girl's help, it will be better. β
