Chapter 19: The Hidden Crisis

After waiting for two days in a row, the competition did not start, and the adventurers were somewhat impatient.

And it's no wonder they.

In the past experience of the mission world, it is all swords, swords, bloody wind and rain, not only that, but even have to race against time, you chase me.

Now that I have entered this Xianxia world, the rhythm has slowed down all of a sudden, and many people are a little uncomfortable, and some people even have a sense of confusion.

In contrast, Shen Yi is much more leisurely.

Usually he would accompany Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er to talk and instruct them on some combat skills, and most of the time, he would hide in the room and fiddle with his computer.

The architecture of the system on the computer is now taking shape, a special figure that looks somewhat like a structural pyramid, constructed of red, blue, white, and black lines, interspersed with strange dotted lines, and more often unmarked blank areas.

Between the blank areas, there is also a strange thick/black line, and most of the time, Shen Yi is staring at this black line and meditating.

"Still watching your system deconstruct?" As soon as she entered the room, Wen Rou saw Shen Yi staring at the computer intently.

"Something isn't quite right. Shen Yi replied casually.

"What do you mean?" Gentleness sat down beside Shen Yi.

Shen Yi's finger fell on the black line: "This, it hasn't appeared yet." ”

"What is this?"

"Dark line...... To be exact, it's the hidden main line of this mission. ”

"Hidden main line? Isn't this mission a free operation? How can there be a hidden main line? Isn't it ...... to protect Li Xiaoyao?"

"He's not. Shen Yi has categorically denied: "The dark line I am talking about is an oppressive existence. It is like a kind of motivation that forces us to keep moving forward, and it is like an invisible corrective force, which can not jump out of the rhythm of the city no matter how much we jump. The first sentence of the opening sentence of system architecture is that the city will never give up its control over the adventurer......"

"You mean ......"

"We have to be prepared for a tough fight. Shen Yi tapped the computer screen and said in a very positive tone.

Gentle gasped.

Shen Yi's meaning has been made clear and clear, in addition to the 27,000-point task requirements, there will be hidden threats in this plot, and the current ease is all an illusion - in the plot maze, there are not only branch forks, but also countless mechanism monsters.

Gently got up: "I'll remind them to take it easy, don't forget where you are after a few days of stable life." ”

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside, as if someone was arguing.

Shen Yi and Wen Wen glanced at each other, and the two of them walked out of the room at the same time.

Standing at the top of the stairs, the two found that it was a man in the lobby of the inn arguing with the innkeeper.

The man was dark-skinned and not tall, but his finger joints were thick, and he looked powerful, and he was yelling at the shopkeeper at this moment. The man was clearly an out-of-town visitor, and his accent sounded a little awkward, but it was still intelligible, as if he was arguing over wine. The man accused the inn of mixing the wine with water, but the shopkeeper naturally refused to admit it, and the two sides argued.

In fact, the inn sells wine, and there is a lot of water, but the amount is different, depending on the conscience. The wine sold at the inn was indeed mixed with water, but not much, and the guests usually disdained it. After a long time, even the innkeeper thought that his own water was not mixed with water, just like an official receiving a few red envelopes was not considered a bribe, so he was quite dissatisfied with the man's accusation, and ridiculed each other, and the two sides quarreled about it.

Originally, this matter had nothing to do with Shen Yi and them, and they were about to leave after just a glance, but at this moment, the bloody emblem on Shen Yi's gentle hand suddenly sounded at the same time:

"Temporary Mission: Chase away the guests who quarrel with the shopkeeper, complete the task, and get a reward of 200 points. ”

As this prompt appeared, a large number of people appeared in each room, none other than the other members of the Broken Blades team and the members of the Wasteland Warriors.

"Huh, sitting in the house and having a mission to come to the door, that's a good thing. Wei Chibai looked at his coat of arms and walked out.

The task of affection was not only sent to Shen Yi Wenrou, but even other people received it.

At this time, they had seen the man in the hall who was arguing with the shopkeeper, Shi Kuijie smiled: "Is that such a guy? ”

As he spoke, he had jumped down the hallway.

Shen Yi frowned slightly, but it was too late to stop him.

Shi Kuijie had already walked up to the man, pushed him and said, "Get out, don't make trouble here if you have nothing to do, disturb Lao Tzu's purity, you can't afford it!"

As soon as he turned around, he glared at Shi Kuijie angrily, opened his mouth and scolded a few words, but he didn't know where the sentence was, and he didn't understand a single word.

Shi Kuijie didn't have the heart to pay attention to him, he just wanted to complete the task quickly, his big hand had already grabbed the man, and the man was also agile, so he retreated and dodged this grab, and pulled out a scimitar with his backhand and slashed at Shi Kuijie.

This guy's style is also ruthless, and he actually draws a knife directly without saying a word.

It's just that what good end can he do if he draws a knife in front of the adventurer, Shi Kuijie waved his backhand, and he has blocked the scimitar that has been chopped, and at the same time flew up and kicked the man in the lower abdomen.

If it weren't for Shi Kuijie's reluctance to lead the government to arrest someone, this kick would have kicked him to death.

Even so, the man was kicked out by him and slammed into the door of the inn, causing a loud bang.

This noise was so loud that it attracted a group of guests to run out of the room, and Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er were also impressively listed.

Zhao Ling'er even ran directly to Shen Yi, grabbed Shen Yi's arm and asked, "Brother Shen Yi, what happened?"

Shen Yi patted her delicate little hand and replied: "It's nothing, it's just that there are customers who have a dispute with the store, and Kui Jie has gone down to deal with it, so there shouldn't be any problems." ”

Zhao Ling'er looked into the hall after hearing this, and saw that the man had already climbed up.

He knew that he was not Shi Kuijie's opponent, and he didn't dare to fight again, so he could only retreat, but his eyes were full of viciousness. Just as he was about to leave the inn, the man glanced at the top of the inn, and suddenly his whole body was shocked, and his eyes showed ecstasy, and then he lowered his head and hurriedly retreated, not even looking at Shi Kuijie again.

His gaze was just a flash, and most people didn't pay attention to it, but he was still discovered by Shen Yi.

His heart moved slightly, and he looked thoughtfully at the people around him.

It was obvious that he had discovered something to make that look.

But what will he find?

Adventurer?

It's impossible, the other party is just a plot character.

Then it can only be Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er.

Thinking about this, Shen Yi's heart suddenly froze.

At this time, Shi Kuijie came back from completing the task, and was laughing and saying to everyone: "Haha, two hundred points are in hand." ”

Because it is a group task, after Shi Kuijie completes the task, others also have rewards, but they only get half of them because they did not participate.

Even so, compared to the ease of the task, 100 points is quite good.

Shen Yi had already said, "No!"

"What's wrong?" everyone looked at Shen Yi together.

Shen Yi said in a deep voice: "There is a problem with that person, we have to change the inn immediately!"

Wei Chibai asked, "What's wrong?"

Shen Yi replied: "That person used a scimitar just now, probably from Miaojiang." ”

Miao Jiang?

Hearing this word, everyone's hearts fluttered at the same time, and they who were familiar with the plot of the fairy sword naturally knew what this word represented.

Everyone's eyes fell on Zhao Ling'er together.

Wei Chibai had already said quickly in English: "You mean, the people in Miao Jiang are still looking for Zhao Ling'er?"

Shen Yi replied coldly: "They never gave up. ”

"Then what's there to be afraid of?" Su En stepped forward: "No wonder the city will suddenly give this task, I'm afraid it just wants that kid to see Zhao Ling'er." But that's not better, in this way, you can receive the task of protecting Zhao Ling'er. Why, Boss Shen, you don't really treat Zhao Ling'er as a personal item and don't allow anyone to contact her, right?"

Shen Yi frowned, the situation he hated the most really happened.

Now no matter what he does or says, others will think about things to his selfishness, and he is even more eager to try the possible risks.

Of course, Shen Yi is not afraid of taking risks, but he hates taking risks without knowing the slightest root, and this is the case now. If what he expected was correct, in the next mission, there would actually be a big risk that would accompany them for a long time, and judging from the current situation, it was likely to be related to Miao Jiang.

In such a situation, waiting for an unknown crisis is by no means in his style, and he prefers to back away for a moment and see the limelight before making a decision.

But apparently the Warriors of the Wasteland don't think so, and for them, it's a good opportunity.

Shen Yi snorted at this: "If you don't go, I'll go!"

As he spoke, he pulled Zhao Ling'er's arm: "Let's go, let's check out and change to an inn." ”

Now Zhao Ling'er only listens to him, he wants to take Zhao Ling'er away, and no one can stop him.

"Damn, I thought it was some kind of great character, it turned out to be a bastard who shrank when he encountered the slightest danger!" Su En spat angrily on the ground.

"What the are you talking about, do you want to fight again?" Hong Lang was furious and rushed over to beat Suon.

"Fight, fight, I really think Lao Tzu is afraid of you!" Although he was already afraid of Hong Lang in his heart, Su En was still tough on his lips.

"That's enough!" Shen Yi had already shouted in a deep voice: "There is not much time, pack up your things and set off immediately! As for them...... Love to go or not!"

Wei Chibai looked at Shen Yi, he had been in contact with Shen Yi for a long time, and knew that Shen Yi was never untargeted, so after taking a deep look at Shen Yi, he took a long breath and said, "Then let's go too." Sun Ying, immediately go find a new inn. ”

A group of people hurriedly packed their things and prepared to leave.

At this moment, a small guy suddenly rushed in from outside the inn, shouting, "It's on!"

"What started?" a group of guests looked at the little guy.

The little guy ran out of breath and shouted, "Lin Jiabao...... Miss Lin competed to recruit relatives...... Here we go!"

Everyone upstairs was stunned at the same time.

Just hear the blood coat of arms has sounded again:

"Temporary Mission: Participate in the competition to recruit relatives, defeat the Lin family masters, and get a reward of 100 blood points for every game you win. Fight with Lin Tiannan to support 100 moves and get a reward of 3,000 points. Recognized by Lin Tiannan, Lin Yueru can be followed. ”

"In this mission, the use of any non-human ability will cause Lin Tiannan to have doubts about the identity of the adventurer, and the corresponding points will be deducted according to the suspicion, which will be included in the mission income. When the suspicion is high enough, it may be chased and killed by Lin Tiannan and the Lin family's masters. ”

Shen Yiwei, Chi Bai and the others looked at each other, and the task of recruiting relatives in the martial arts competition had begun at this critical time.

"Shen Yi!" Wei Chibai had already whispered to Shen Yi.

Shen Yi sighed leisurely: "Go ahead." ”

This task involves many people and has rich rewards, and he just can't do it if he wants to say no.
