Chapter 6 At dusk, the iron bell rings
"You're dead."
Yu Yi tried to enter the village a few more times, but found that it was the same ending.
The black shadow in the village is a strange thing, it disappeared without even reacting to it, and the tetanus wood knife is purely a decoration.
There was no way, Yu Yi could only wait for dawn to speak.
Time flies quickly in the game, and there is a big gap between it and the real world. It didn't take long for it to enter the day, and Yu Yi was not idle, taking advantage of the night to wander around, and lay down a few more times.
Okay, the guys in my hands are all antiques, and they don't use it.
Yu Yi found that he would not be forced to return to the teleportation point after he died, which may be the characteristic of his profession, which is quite convenient.
Normally, when the game dies, it will return to the save point, and lying in place and waiting for the resurrection is the only conscience.
This is also exhausting, dangerous, and easy to waste time.
Although your own death is nothing, seizing the time to advance is the top priority.
Yu Yi secretly thought to himself, the two people he met today had obviously mastered some kind of power, and his strength far surpassed his own, and he was definitely not the first batch of players.
I don't get into trouble yet, just be a little transparent with peace of mind.
"It's dawn, and you're finally stepping into the village. It's still early, there are no pedestrians on the street, and you're walking alone on the road. ”
"The sun is rising, and the light fog is getting darker. The thatched houses were covered with mist, and the bluestone slabs were also stained with moisture. You hear the door open, and the villagers are a little surprised to see you, but they don't say anything, ignore your presence, and begin to work day after day. ”
"There are more than 20 families in the village, but there are many more houses, many empty houses are idle, I don't know where their owners have gone, and the dilapidated doors and windows have not been repaired, and it has been some years."
"You find an old man with a white beard sitting in front of the door, and tea is steaming on the small table next to the old man. He sees you and waves to you. ”
As soon as you look at the description, you can understand that this is not the legendary novice village head, and you should take the task according to the process.
"The old man is a little interested in you when he first arrives, he sees the unusual aura on you, and after talking for a while, you hope to know more about the village."
The old man nodded lightly when he heard this, if you can do a few things, then he will be happy to tell you the information.
Quest Start: Find the village chief's lost firewood knife, and complete the quest to increase the village chief's friendship and some rewards.
Isn't the lost firewood knife the one in my backpack?
Well, it's a no-brainer.
Yu Yi happily opened his backpack, but found that the tetanus firewood knife was missing, what was going on, there were not many things in total?
I'm afraid it's not a ghost, but looking at the villagers' descriptions are the same as the wooden people, it shouldn't be possible.
Yu Yi looked at it and finally found the problem.
"A worn-out storage bag (broken) doesn't know how many years it has passed, it can barely be used, and it may lose its items."
You're really losing something!
Such a big firewood knife fell to the ground and didn't know how to look back?
It's also a stomach ache to think about.,Items must be placed in the backpack in addition to use.,It's just that the props aren't angry.,Fortunately, other things are still there.。
If those materials are lost, it will be a real blood loss, and you must hurry up and complete the task, and find a way to spend the night in the village.
Yu Yi rubbed his temples and manipulated the character to look for the second lost firewood knife along the way he came.
"The people of the village have come out, but they don't have any communication with each other, they are like machines, living like walking corpses."
[Death Observation Technique] is activated.
"A different scene appeared in your eyes, the black air filled the sky, as if the death realm had descended, and the seemingly ordinary village had turned into a purgatory on earth in your eyes."
Hey, what's going on?
Yu Yi shuddered when he thought about this scene, sometimes the imagination brought by the words would be more impactful, and the black air in this village was so thick that his eyes were smoking.
This old village chief has thick eyebrows and big eyes, kind eyebrows and good intentions, not like a bad person, why is the village so weird?
"You picked up the lost hatchet on the road and paid some small price for your carelessness."
Yes, it's all my fault.
Thinking of the picture just now, Yu Yi also had some bad guesses about this firewood knife.
It's kind of like a murder weapon......
"Undead Guidance Triggers ......"
"There is a vague shadow in the nearby alley, lurking in the darkness, and when you walk into the alley, the shadow disappears instantly, as if sensing your arrival."
Yu Yi thought for a moment, it was still important to send the knife, what if he lost it again. I don't have time to play a game of peek-a-boo.
"You turn back and hand the knife to the old man, who nods with satisfaction and tells you about the past."
"A few years ago, it was a bustling town, where the inhabitants lived at sunrise and sunset, and the town became a paradise."
"Suddenly, one day, a gang of robbers entered the town, and the horses' hooves crushed the peaceful life, and the blood stained the town red. The looters took most of the property, and the paradise turned into purgatory. ”
Since then, every time the bandits have arrived, they have brought great disaster to the people, and many residents have packed their bags and tried to flee the place. The next morning, their heads were dropped at the junction of the town, their escape route cut off, and the iron bell on their horses' necks became a nightmare echo in their ears. ”
"The town has lost all its vitality and has gradually become a deserted village, swallowed up by time and blades."
Presumably the scene he saw was the resentment and death that had accumulated at that time, but he didn't expect this village to have such a miserable past.
You can't escape, all the fruits of your labor don't belong to you, and even your life is in the hands of others, and no one can bear such torture.
What's the point of such a life?
Yu Yi sighed, glad that he lived in today's era.
So the wilderness, which was once part of the town, is now so dilapidated.
Facing the old man, Yu Yi also had different emotions, these are his personal experiences, it is lucky and unfortunate to be able to survive in that situation.
The old man took a sip of tea and continued to tell the old story.
"Occasionally, a young chivalrous guest visits, sees this sad scene and asks about the situation, hearing about the experience, the young chivalrous man is angry, sad and angry, my generation of chivalrous and righteous people, the road will be uneven will draw a sword to help, and at this time the nightmare struck again."
"At dusk, the iron bell rings."
