Chapter 124: The Mystery Unsolved!
A fruit that can make people live forever. Why did this sound so familiar, Gu Qing felt as if he had heard it somewhere.
Coupled with the dense roots under Zhang Erwa's colorful description, Gu Qing instantly thought of the "Blood Source Fruit" that was destroyed at the Night City auction, and the local tyrant brother at the auction also mentioned the legend of "immortality"!
"Hey, this blood-derived fruit can't be the same thing as the fruit that Zhang Qiling gave to the villagers, right?" Gu Qing instantly became suspicious!
It's normal for Easter egg copies in the metaverse to be connected!
Gu Qing immediately shook his head, maybe he was thinking too much!
"Now we have to figure out the purpose of the cavalry coming here to slaughter the village, and what role that Zhang Qiling played in this historical catastrophe!"
"Second baby, how old is Zhang Qiling now?" Gu Qing Dynasty's second baby asked.
The second baby touched her head and said, "It's been a long time...... According to my grandfather, he was almost 100 years old when he first came, and now he is estimated to be nearly 300 years old, right?"
Hiss........ It is rumored that human Peng Zu lived for more than 800 years, and it is not impossible to be more than 300 years old!
"Aside from being a little infiltrating after death, this fruit seems to be a great treasure!" Gu Qing's head was big, and he was eager to find out the origin of this fruit!
Zhang Liuan also has a bloodline in his body, [Blood Source One Blood], he is a descendant of the Zhang family, is this how the blood source blood comes from!?
Gu Qing was shocked, the blood source fruit and the blood source are in the same vein, it is difficult to otherwise connect people.
Although the fruit in the auction is very precious, if you eat it, it seems that you will have to pay a terrible price to obtain "immortality"!
"This is also the reason why Zhang Liu'an has to risk his life to enter the auction anyway and destroy it!"
"What is the connection between the past and the present of this bloodline?" Gu Qing had a headache when he thought about it!
Drive! Drive! Drive!
Of course, at the same time as he thought of this, he and Zhang Erwa had already ridden a bloody BMW out of Zhangjia Village! All the way to the middle of nowhere!
Zhang Erwa also became anxious when she saw the flames in Zhangjia Village, and hurriedly asked, "Sixth brother, let's go, but there are still many villagers in Zhangjia Village!" Most of them are old people, and they will be killed by the cavalry!"
Gu Qing reined in his horse and came to a big river, glanced in the direction of the village, frowned and said, "I also want to save him, but I can't save so much, cross the river, get out of here first!"
Although Zhang Erwa's heart hurts, the cavalry pretending to be a bandit is overwhelming, and once surrounded, the two of them may have to be planted inside! I can only hold back my sadness and nod!
The big river is nearly a meter deep, but fortunately, the sweat and blood BMW is high enough, and the horse's hooves ride the waves, setting off a splash in an instant! Cross the river with ease!
"Finally escaped, the cavalry shouldn't catch up!" Gu Qing breathed a sigh of relief!
It was at this time that a text prompt appeared in front of me that only I could see!
[Ding, you saved the son of the main vein of Zhangjia Village, "Zhang Erwa", so that the Zhang family can survive with a high probability in the historical trajectory of inevitable destruction! ] 】
[Ding, the task of the Zhang family's murder has been completed! ] 】
[Quest Completion: 35%]
[The current mission has been completed, do you want to continue the game?] 】
[Countdown: 5 hours, 30 minutes, 11 seconds]
[Will you upload the result of this mission as the final result of this mission!] (Note: The final result can only be uploaded once, and it is also the final criterion for mission rewards!) )】
Well!?
Gu Qing looked at this information with some surprise, he didn't expect that rescuing Zhang Erwa would be considered a complete task!
"Just let the Zhang family save the bloodline, it can indeed be regarded as saving the Zhang family!"
"No wonder the mission rating is only D, so even if the mission is completed, the difficulty is really low!" Gu Qing muttered to himself.
Then he noticed that the task was only 35 percent complete.
"This ....... As a player aspiring to beat all metaverse levels, this level of completion is simply insulting....... I can't bear it!" This data is too stretched!
[Continue playing, don't upload data!] 】
Gu Qing decisively chose this option! It seems that saving the bloodline of the Zhang family is only a small part of this easter egg copy!
"There are still a lot of clues hidden in this that have not yet been explored, and there are still many mysteries to be solved!"
Gu Qing looked at Zhang Erwa, who was depressed by the river, and felt a trace of sympathy in his heart!
Zhang Erwa suddenly hugged the sixth brother and cried, "It's gone. Nothing is gone, the village is gone, everyone is gone, only my cousin and I are alive! Woo woo woo, what are you going to do in the future?!"
yes, what is he going to do in the future!? He's now a disaster-stricken man!
In the past, life in Zhangjia Village was not necessarily very rich, but at least he was able to grow up warmly with the help of his clan and relatives, even if he sometimes starved because of poor harvests and taxes, but he had a warm home!
Zhang Erwa looked at the fire in Zhangjia Village on the other side of the river, and couldn't help but feel sad and dazed!
"Live well!" Gu Qing hugged him and comforted this young man!
Fortunately, there is a cousin by his side who can be relied on, otherwise he will really collapse completely!
Although I know that this is a game, combined with such a peculiar oriental ancient background, in the era of war and chaos, life and death always come so suddenly!
"It's okay....... Sixth brother will accompany you back to the village after dawn!" Gu Qing sat down on the edge of the grassland by the river!
Zhang Erwa fell asleep under Gu Qing's comfort, and it didn't take long for the sun to rise, and the red sunrise was not dazzling at all, and Gu Qing realized that he seemed to have taken a short nap in the metaverse!
"It's the second day!" Gu Qing got up immediately, and Zhang Erwa woke up from last night's nightmare!
"It's only 35% complete, there must be clues in Zhangjiacun that I haven't found, I have to go back and see!"
Gu Qing looked at it, the fire in Zhangjia Village had been extinguished, and there was still a remnant of white smoke in the direction!
"Let's go, Erwa, let's go back and see, the cavalry seems to have left!"
"Good!" Zhang Erwa endured his grief, and now his state is much better than last night!
Gu Qing and the others crossed the river on the looted sweaty BMW as usual, turned back the same way, and when they came to the gate of Zhangjia Village, Zhangjia Village was already in ruins!
There are scorched marks everywhere, collapsed houses, and torn down earthen walls, just like a desolate village!
Gu Qing walked through the ruined village, and a strong smell of blood came!
"Sixth brother, over there!" Zhang Erwa reminds!
Then Gu Qing followed the footsteps of the second baby and sighed in his heart!
Zhang Erwa instantly shouted uncontrollably at the corpse, "It's dead, it's all dead!" Woo woo woo"
Gu Qing looked at the corpses densely piled up in front of him, and his scalp was numb!
