Chapter 17: Birthdays
Everything was done, Qin Xiaolong left the village chief's house and found a random place outside to get off the line.
At this time, it was already the middle of the night, and after a busy day, Qin Xiaolong was also a little lacking, so he casually warmed something to eat, took a bath and fell asleep, it was rare that he did not practice the "Holy Spirit Formula", after all, cultivating when the spirit was not good, it would inevitably have an adverse effect.
When I woke up the next day, it was already past nine o'clock, and a good night's sleep was the best way to replenish my spirit, and while he was full of energy, Qin Xiaolong directly crossed his legs and cultivated. It was still nine weeks, but Qin Xiaolong found that there were faint signs of a breakthrough in his realm, and the efforts of the past three years had finally paid off, and Qin Xiaolong was also very excited.
Excitement is excitement, but Qin Xiaolong hasn't forgotten what day it is, July 3rd is Lin Qiaoer's birthday, and it is also his birthday. It's not that the two of them happened to have the same birthday, it's just that Qin Xiaolong was picked up by Grandpa Qin, and he didn't know when he was born, and with the meager salary of the old man, it was already very difficult to raise a child, so how could he have any extra money to celebrate his birthday. Lin Qiaoer's family also knew about Qin Xiaolong's situation, so every year on Lin Qiaoer's birthday, they called Qin Xiaolong to spend it together, and over time, it was also regarded as Qin Xiaolong's birthday.
In previous years, Qin Xiaolong was still a student, and even his studies were completed with the help of his neighbors, let alone any money to buy birthday gifts. It was Lin Qiao'er who would save pocket money every year to buy some small gifts for Qin Xiaolong. Originally, Qin Xiaolong was still suffering from the problem of not having money, but yesterday he unexpectedly made a lot of money, and all the problems were solved at once.
Qin Xiaolong was thinking about this, his mobile phone rang, he picked it up and saw that it was Lin Qiao'er calling, and picked up the phone: "Hey, Sister Qiao'er." ”
"Little Dragon, what day is it, do you remember?" Lin Qiao'er's playful voice sounded over there, which made Qin Xiaolong's mood feel a lot better.
"Of course I remember, how could I forget such an important thing."
"Oh? Tell me what day it is. ”
"Today, isn't it the third day of Chaos?" After Qin Xiaolong finished speaking with a smile, he suddenly heard that there was no sound on the other side, Qin Xiaolong thought that Lin Qiao'er was angry, and hurriedly said, "Sister Qiao'er, don't be angry, I'm joking, today is your birthday, how could I forget." ”
"Hehe, what scares you, I know that even if you play games every day, you won't forget, then remember to come to my house for dinner at night, and also, if you call Xiaoyong, I won't call him."
was teased, but Qin Xiaolong couldn't get angry with Lin Qiao'er. I could only smile helplessly: "Okay, I know, but you also know this game?" In Qin Xiaolong's memory, Lin Qiao'er would never touch games.
"Of course, this game is so promoted, I don't know how many people in the world don't know, and I also have a helmet, oh, I've played it for the past two days, but I won't fight monsters, and I have been promoted to level 3 by others." Lin Qiao'er said embarrassedly.
"It's your first time in gaming, so it's already good." Qin Xiaolong comforted.
"You still say that I, it's your first time playing a game, how are you doing now?"
"It's not bad, I've adapted to it, and I believe it will be a little bit better in the future."
"Well, that's good, let's do it first, I'm going to get busy, bye-bye."
"Bye-bye".
hung up the phone and called Wu Yong again, and it took a long time for him to pick up the phone, and an impatient voice came out: "Hey, what are you doing?" There is something to say, nothing to hang up. ”
"Damn, what are you doing in a hurry, rushing to reincarnate." Listening to the other party's tone, Qin Xiaolong replied with great displeasure.
"It's more urgent than reincarnation, you can tell me quickly, what the hell is going on."
"Today is Sister Qiao'er's birthday, and she asked us to go to her place for dinner in the evening." Qin Xiaolong said helplessly.
As soon as Qin Xiaolong said this, Wu Yong suddenly realized, patted his head and said, "Damn, how did I forget about this, hey." ”
"What's the matter, what's wrong with you?" Listening to Wu Yong's tangled tone, Qin Xiaolong asked.
"I just got a time-limited mission, and I'm going to finish him today." Wu Yong said helplessly, "You know how difficult it is for the novice village to receive a task now, and if this task is not completed, there will be a very serious punishment." ”
"Come on, we don't know you yet, and Sister Qiao'er won't blame you. Then you have fun, I'm hanging. ”
"Uh-huh, you help me tell her, and I'll make up for the gift later." After Wu Yong finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Qin Xiaolong looked at the time, it was less than 10 o'clock, and there was still some time in the evening, so he simply ate breakfast and lunch together, and then adjusted the alarm clock and entered the game.
Just completed a big task, and now there are no new tasks, Qin Xiaolong didn't know what to do for a while, and after thinking about it, it would be better to take advantage of the fact that there was no one in the leveling area at the advanced point, the leveling area.
After getting some supplies, I walked to the entrance of the village, which was the peak time for players, and the bustling players shuttled through the novice village, and there were many people who set up stalls there to sell.
"Sell a level 2 Xuantie weapon, only 100 Huaxia coins, pre-order as soon as possible."
"Sell a level 3 Xuantie clothes, only 100 Huaxia coins, come and take a look."
"Sell a level 5 Xuantie weapon, only 500 Huaxia coins, first come, first served, if it's too late, it's gone.
Seeing this, Qin Xiaolong remembered that he had blackmailed Liu Er Shao with two pieces of equipment before, and looked at the backpack.
Dog fur coat:
Type: Top
Grade: Dark Iron
Equipment level: 3
Defend +4
Boots:
Type: Shoes
Grade: Dark Iron
Equipment level: 3
Defend +3
"Damn, this level 3 garbage can also be sold for 100 Huaxia coins?" Qin Xiaolong thought puzzled. How did he know that in the poor "Chaos" with a low violent rate, how many novices were still wearing those two novice equipment, like Qin Xiaolong, who was almost complete, and the entire novice village might not be able to find a few.
However, this reminded Qin Xiaolong that if he used the equipment he didn't use in the future, he could use it to make some extra money.
If nothing happens on the way to leveling, it will always be the most boring, just like Qin Xiaolong, who had to walk for more than an hour before reaching the leveling point.
Nowadays, there are many players who have come to level 5 of the Evil Wolf Leveling Point, and even the Level 6 Wolf Leveling Point has a few elite players who are struggling there. In order not to be discovered, Qin Xiaolong bypassed them and went straight to the level 8 big black bear leveling point. Why did you give up 7 Ban Wenhu directly, because Qin Xiaolong tried it, Ban Wenhu's attack power is high and extremely fast, although the blood volume is not high, it is not easy to deal with. On the other hand, the big black bear, with thick blood and thick skin, is also extremely powerful, but the reaction speed is very slow, Qin Xiaolong's attack can now break the defense, killing the black bear is much easier than the spotted tiger, the most important thing is to kill monsters by leapfrogging, and the experience value is much higher.
Dealing with this relatively bulky monster, as long as the attack can break the defense, it is very easy to kill, and because it is a single kill, in just about three hours, Qin Xiaolong has nearly 50% experience.
Monster farming will be boring to death, but if you watch your experience soar, it will be different, it wasn't until Qin Xiaolong's set alarm clock rang that Qin Xiaolong realized that time passed so quickly. But no matter how important it is, it is not as important as the evening event. I found a safe place to go offline, changed into a slightly better set of clothes, took my bank card and went out.
The afternoon in July was already very hot, coupled with the appearance of the "Chaos" game, so that there were few pedestrians on the road, and occasionally some people were in a hurry.
The scorching sun was also very uncomfortable, so he quickly found a good-looking jewelry store to enter. The store was quite large, but it was deserted, with only a few clerks chatting boredly.
Seeing Qin Xiaolong enter, several pairs of eyes looked at each other at the same time, probably seeing that Qin Xiaolong was not wearing well, so there was no next action, only a young clerk estimated that he had just come to work a few days ago, and was pushed out to receive Qin Xiaolong.
Qin Xiaolong didn't have much money before, and the clothes on his body were all stalls, and he didn't look like a rich lord, those clerks who had been doing it for a while were all old fritters, and he had seen a lot of people like Qin Xiaolong, basically they all came in to take a look, you wasted your tongue for a long time, and as a result, nothing was sold. Over time, these people were pushed to the new clerks to receive them.
"Hello, do you need anything?" Maybe she had just entered the society and hadn't brought colored glasses to see people yet, even if Qin Xiaolong was dressed very ordinary, she still patiently introduced all kinds of things to Qin Xiaolong with a smile on her face. Qin Xiaolong also came to buy this kind of thing for the first time, he didn't understand anything, he originally thought that he should be a rich man with a huge amount of money of 100,000 yuan, but seeing those luxury goods that cost tens of thousands of yuan at every turn, Qin Xiaolong still couldn't help but feel pain.
In the end, Qin Xiaolong spent 5,000 oceans and chose a delicate platinum necklace, although it was very distressing to spend so much money as soon as he made a move, but to buy something for Lin Qiaoer, no matter how expensive Qin Xiaolong was, he was willing to do it.
Everything is done, go to Lin Qiaoer's house, it is already past four o'clock, and the time is just right.
Lin Qiaoer's family runs a small restaurant, although the business has been good in recent years, but it is not rich, and it has to provide for Lin Qiaoer to go to college, so he just rented a three-story house in the slum, the lower two floors are used as restaurants, and the third floor is used as housing, which is half a street away from where Qin Xiaolong lives.
Qin Xiaolong used to come to help when he was free, and he was very familiar with this place, and he also knew several staff members in the store, said hello to each other, and walked to the third floor.
There was a knock on the door, and soon there was a sound of slippers inside, and then, a pleasant voice sounded: "Come, who?" ”
"Sister Qiao'er, it's me."
With a click, the door opened, revealing Lin Qiaoer's graceful figure. "Xiaolong, you're here, come in." With that, he turned around and continued into the kitchen, apparently cooking.
Lin Qiaoer is wearing a white short-sleeved dress with a light blue pleated skirt today, revealing her white and tender arms and slender and straight legs. Due to the relationship at home, there was a pair of slippers on his feet, the toes were as clear as crystal pearls, and the swan-like neck was beautiful, but there were no ornaments on it, which made Qin Xiaolong secretly happy to buy the right thing.
After changing his slippers, Qin Xiaolong also followed into the house.
