Chapter 31: The Third World
In that remote mountain village, there is a taboo that must not be mentioned.
Insensitive spectators, accomplices who fall into the ground, no one is innocent.
- "River God"
Soon, Gu Chong's third world time will come. This time, it was Lu Qiu who accompanied him in without a word. It's also very strange, he has known Luqiu Wuyan for more than half a year, but he has never seen Luqiu Wuyan open his own world.
"When it comes to the girl's year, it basically takes only once a year to enter, but the lowest level in the world every time is intermediate, and if you're unlucky, you'll meet the advanced world." Fang Linna said.
"Everything's ready?" Lu Qiu Wuyan wore a pair of military pants, the cuffs of which were tucked into field boots, and his long hair that originally reached his back was tied in a ponytail, which looked very capable. According to Lu Qiu's wordless request, Gu Chong also customized several sets of comfortable and active clothes and shoes, and the two stood together, quite matching.
Gu Chong touched and patted all over his body, and made sure that everything was brought with him, that is, the newly pierced ears on his ears, which made him feel weird.
This is definitely not because Gu Chong played for "Aimei", but because he wanted to wear the earrings that Luqiu gave him without words.
It was a very simple stud earring, some copper-colored, but not copper-made; It's just a rough pattern, some like stick figure flames, but it's too small to look at without looking closely.
According to Lu Qiu Wuyan, this earring and her ring are a set, which means that if something happened to Gu Chong wearing this earring, Lu Qiu Wuyan could probably feel it. Many hirers and their partners in the world will have one of these items to strengthen the bond between them.
The two sat on the sofa, after Gu Chong officially joined the "Crow", every time he opened the world or took on a task, he would come to the reception villa of the "Crow" in the city, as an elite member of the "Crow", Lu Qiu Wuyan is a person who has a separate room in the villa, so that he can not only ensure the safety of his body after losing consciousness for dozens of minutes, but also take measures in time after the accident.
The two of them sat on the sofa in Lu Qiu's speechless room, and the blood stains left here last time had been cleaned up.
Suddenly, a strange feeling came out of Gu Chong's mind, he looked at Lu Qiu beside him speechlessly, nodded, and the two stood up together and opened the door of the room.
Outside the room, the villa is still a villa, but the people in it are gone, and in the living room on the first floor, there is a man with a strange mask, and a large turntable that is somewhat shabby.
"Welcome to the Wheel of Terror."
The masked man stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, Lu Qiu Wuyan glanced at the names and levels of each world written on the turntable, because Gu Chong was only the third world, so the difficulty was not very high, basically all of them were low-level worlds, and they were only worthy of an intermediate world.
She took out the soul spear, and Gu Chong felt that the masked man was depressed again.
"Whew!"
"Congratulations, a C-class world," the masked man's voice smiled.
"Have fun—"
……
"Brother, brother,"
Gu Chong was woken up, he opened his eyes in a daze, and hurriedly sat up, it is very dangerous to fall asleep during the day in the inner world.
He sat up, only to find a little girl next to him, who seemed to be startled by his sudden sitting, and fell to the ground.
"You are?"
"Brother, don't get me wrong, I just wanted to ...... when I saw you pass out on the ground" The little girl looked at Gu Chong and stammered.
"Ah, it's okay, you also came into this world, right?"
"Yes," the girl nodded.
"My name is Gu Mengfan, what about you?"
"I, my name is Song Yu."
This is a barren mountain and old forest, but it is a bit like the world he experienced for the first time, Gu Chong and Song Yu walked together, walking down the mountain road.
"Is it your first time in the world?" Gu Chong asked kindly, Song Yu looked soft and weak, and his expression was always a little flustered, as if he was a novice.
Song Yu nodded, followed behind Gu Chong honestly, and didn't speak, just like a small shadow.
"It's okay, in the inner world, as long as you are careful in everything, there will be basically no problem." Gu Chong didn't say anything when he saw her, the two walked down the mountain road, and soon, they saw a village.
Sure enough, it has a similar cultural background to the world that Gu Chong first experienced, and at the entrance of the village, many people have already gathered.
Lu Qiu Wuyan is also mixed in.
Lu Qiu wordlessly saw Gu Chong walking over, glanced at him, and continued to look at the crowd. Gu Chong consciously walked into the crowd and did not speak.
"Aren't you almost there?"
At this time, in the crowd, a beautiful woman dressed very brightly spoke. Everyone looked at her, and the wide open neckline caused many men to glance at her frequently, but the women did not shy away from it, but stood up proudly.
"Almost, a C-level world, there are enough of so many people." A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses who looked very Sven said, but he was no different from other men, sticking to the gorgeous woman, and his eyes revealed his true heart.
The woman looked at the man with glasses and was very happy, and her steps unconsciously moved towards the man, and her body leaned over completely, half leaning on the man.
"Ma'am, don't do this," said the man, pushing her away, pointing to a girl with short ear-length hair beside him, "my girlfriend is still here." ”
The girl he was referring to was expressionless and didn't even roll her eyes.
"Oh, that's really rude, I'm sorry little sister, hehehe," said the woman, covering her mouth and chuckling.
"Now that everyone is here, let's introduce ourselves." Lu Qiu Wuyan spoke at this time, and she glanced at the girl with short hair with her ears, and seemed to be very interested in her.
"Okay, so everyone knows each other, please take care of the rest of the days," said the gorgeous woman with a smile.
"My name is Wu Yan."
Well, people live up to their name.
"My name is Song Yinan," the man with gold wire glasses pushed his glasses.
"Xie Jinyu," said the short-haired girl with her ears.
The rest of the people reported their names in turn, and when they went to Gu Chong, Gu Chong smiled and said, "My name is Gu Mengfan." ”
Song Yu hid behind Gu Chong and whispered, "My name is Song Yu." ”
"Xia Wuyan," Lu Qiu said silently, "Since everyone knows each other, let's divide the team first." ”
Detachment, it is a normal thing in the inner world, whether it is a hirer and a customer, or a companion, or a straggler, they will not want to be alone.
As soon as Lu Qiu was speechless, everyone turned their heads one after another, looking for a partner.
"Miss Xia, can I join a group with you?" Gu Chong stepped forward and said wordlessly to Luqiu. Lu Qiu nodded wordlessly, and agreed with it. At this time, Song Yu, who had been following behind Gu Chong, also timidly walked up to Lu Qiu Wuyan and asked in a low voice:
"Well, can I join you too?"
Lu Qiu glanced at Gu Chong wordlessly, Gu Chong didn't see it, but looked at Song Yu and said enthusiastically, "Yes." ”
Lu Qiu is speechless: ...... Never mind.
Wu Yan originally had a good impression of Song Yinan, but Song Yinan dragged his family to bring him to the house, so he had no choice but to hook up with a middle-aged man who was not tall, but looked very strong, and the two came and went, and they were sticky.
Song Yinan looked at Wu Yan who had switched to someone else's arms, her eyes were full of pity, she had no choice but to hug Xie Jinyu and talk to her in a whisper.
At this moment, I saw a middle-aged man running out of the village in a hurry and came to everyone.
"I'm sorry, but our village chief is preparing the things to be sacrificed in seven days, so let me take you into the village."
As he spoke, he led the crowd towards the village.
Huaishui Village is located in a relatively low-lying location, surrounded by endless mountain ranges, and there are also many rivers running around the village.
The most amazing thing is that in the middle of Huaishui Village, there is a river, although the river is not deep and the river surface is not wide, but even in the driest weather, the river has never stopped, and even the water level will not be lowered much.
The village was also named Huaishui Village.
I don't know when, history is no longer verifiable, and in the middle of that river, a bare land appeared; It is also said that the ancestors of the village once dug up a terrifying statue there.
After the statue was excavated, the water level of the Central River began to rise rapidly, flooding many villagers' houses one after another. Even the big rivers outside the village have a faint tendency to overflow. But the strange thing is that no matter how much the river floods, the piece of land in the middle of the river where the statue was dug will not be flooded.
The ancestors said that the statue was the river god, and the river god was dug out without permission, which angered the river god, and the river god wanted to condemn them to Huaishui Village.
So the villagers spontaneously donated money to build a small earthen temple in the place where the statue was dug up, which was used to worship the river god, and sacrificed to the river god on the day when the statue was dug up every year, praying that the river god would not condemn them.
After the river temple was built, the river fruits were really not flooded, and the villagers of Huaishui Village lived here for a long time.
