Chapter 48: Heading to the Trials
Meng Qingxiao was stunned by his question, a little unclear, "Did I say anything?" ”
"Repeat what you just said."
"Don't worry, no matter what the assessment, I promise you'll pass it." Meng Qingxiao picked up the bowl indifferently, and didn't let Gao Dalu drink a bowl first, and after drinking it, he let out a sigh and laughed: "Haha, Lao Tzu was inexplicably teleported to this bird place, and he has been depressed to death, and now he can finally be happy." ”
Meng Qingxiao scratched his head, frowned, thought for a while, and said, "Don't worry, I promise to give it to you." ”
"Not this sentence, the next sentence."
"I'm going to have a drink?"
"A little bit more."
"A little bit more?" Meng Qingxiao struggled to recall, "I was thrown into this bird place? ”
Gao Dalu immediately said excitedly: "Yes, that's it, what you just said wasn't throwing, are you talking about teleportation?" ”
"Seems to be, what's wrong, what's wrong with this sentence?"
"You're not from the Forgotten Lands?"
"Of course not, I'm from the earth, aren't you?"
Gao Dalu said: "I am a native of the country, and my parents are also indigenous here. ”
"Holy!" Meng Qingxiao jumped up suddenly, "I thought everyone here was teleported from outside, and there are even natives here, so why do you all look the same as me?" I've seen aliens, and although they're humanoid, they're a completely different species from me. ”
Gao Dau explained: "There are also people who are different from us, the chaotic land is very large, this area is the area where we Hanoi people live, and few other races come over. ”
"I see, then I think I'm lucky." Meng Qingxiao said suddenly.
"Tell me about life out there." Gao Dalu can't wait to be authentic.
"Where do you start?"
Meng Qingxiao thought about it, and then started from the starry sky of the universe, talked about the evolution of the universe and the birth of human beings, and then talked about countless parallel worlds, he said very quickly, and only said a little bit about everything, when the wine in the wine jar was drunk by him, he also finished talking about all these things.
Gao Dalu thought for a while and asked, "You just said that you were teleported in, what's going on?" ”
"Alas, it's hard to explain." Meng Qingxiao had no choice but to talk about the war between the earthlings and the Shixing people, and told the process when he and the leader of the Shixing people, 98 Jiagang, were teleported in by 98 Jiagang using a magical magic weapon like a lamp when they were fighting in the middle of the night.
"Damn, I get annoyed when I think about it, I heard passer-by A say that there is a temple of time in the middle of this continent, and I suspect that there is a way to get out there, but it took me a long time, and I can't get there at all."
Gao Dalu listened silently and said: "There is indeed a way to get out of here in the Temple of Time, but if you want to go to the Temple of Time, you can only go from the Eternal Land, because the only passage of the Temple of Time is in the Eternal Land. ”
"Really, that's great!" Meng Qingxiao stood up and said happily, "I'm going to the Eternal Land, I'm sorry, Brother Gao, I won't participate in your trial." ”
After he finished speaking, he was about to leave, and was grabbed by Gao Dadao.
"What are you anxious about, listen to me." Gao Dalu said angrily, "Do you think the Eternal Land is a place you can go to if you want?" ”
"You mean it's more chaotic than the Land of Chaos?"
Gao Dalu shook his head: "There is much more unity there than we here, we are full of gangs here, no one obeys anyone, there will be a big war every three or five times, they are more like a country, they have a supreme king, there is an elite army, we are even more strict here, we want to go over and climb to the sky." ”
"That's right." Meng Qingxiao frowned and sat back in his seat, "Could it be that I have no chance to sneak in alone?" ”
Gao Dalu sighed: "You don't understand at all, although the Eternal Land and the Chaos Land are next to each other, but these are completely two different worlds, even if a fly wants to fly into the Eternal Land, it is impossible for even a fly to fly into the Eternal Land, when I was very young, someone in the Chaos Land once got the rune, he organized all the Hanoi people in the Chaos Land to attack the Eternal Land together, but the result was still a fiasco and retreated, we didn't even bring out a handful of soil and a grain of sand from the Eternal Land." ”
Meng Qingxiao was still unwilling, "Tell me about it first, what difficulties do you need to go through if you want to go to the Eternal Land?" ”
"I'll tell you everything I know, but only if you pass the trials of our Blue Dragon Gang first." Gao Dalu said with a straight face.
"No problem, look at me." Meng Qingxiao didn't eat either, and got up and urged Gao Dalu to take him away.
The reason why Gao Dalu introduced Meng Qingxiao to join the Qinglong Gang is that gratitude is only one aspect, and on the other hand, the four gangs also have rules for recruiting talents, and the four gangs are also welcome to some really capable masters.
For example, a master of Tianyuan 6th stage like Meng Qingxiao, once he passes the trial and officially joins the Qinglong Gang, Gao Dalu can get the highest level reward as a recommender.
Of course, if Meng Qingxiao was an enemy undercover agent or betrayed the Blue Dragon Gang, Gao Dalu would also be jointly and severally liable, because he didn't know anyone.
The four gangs adhere to the principle of employing people without suspicion, and they almost do not investigate the background of people who join their gangs, as long as you strictly abide by the rules of the gang after joining, even if you are really an undercover agent sent by the enemy, they don't care.
Each gang member has regular and quantitative tasks, these tasks are the foundation of your life to complete, there are rewards, if you don't complete it, you have to accept punishment, even if you are really an enemy undercover, you have made your own contribution to the construction of the gang, the gang will also welcome.
It's only when you show your personal ambition to become a gang leader that someone will investigate your background, and they'll look you up to the bottom of it, even if you walk with any foot first.
Assuming that the direction of the Temple of Time is north, and the place of exile is to the west of the land of chaos, Gao Dalu took Meng Qingxiao all the way to the southeast, and soon went out of the town, the vegetation here was more dense, and even a forest appeared, but the forest was very quiet, and even the birds could not be heard, Meng Qingxiao was very curious about this, and asked Gao Dalu what was going on.
"There are also birds in the Forgotten Lands, but there are very few, and they are mainly concentrated in the territory of the Outsiders and the Kunjia people, because they have a lot of water there. ”
"I just wanted to ask you, I forgot for the time being, why are we called Hanoi?"
"Our place used to be a body of water, but then a big war dried up all the water, and only the riverbed remained, and we lived here, so we were called Hanoi people."
"Oh, I see, I thought the river was referring to the Milky Way, and I was still thinking that the Stars are also people from the Milky Way."
"According to your description, the Shixing people should be Kunjia people, they live directly in front of us, and they will walk about 20,000 kilometers to their territory."
"Twenty thousand kilometers!" Meng Qingxiao screamed, "How big is this?" ”
"It's big, it's too big you can't imagine."
"If this is just a continent, then it must have a border, have you been to the border, what is it like?"
Gao Dalu smiled bitterly: "The farthest place I went to was the market where you met me before, which was the junction between us and the Xuanwu Gang. ”
"Haven't you ever thought about going to the outside world to see, what's the point of staying at home all your life?" Meng Qingxiao was surprised.
Gao Dalu didn't want to explain too much, shook his head and said, "You'll know later." ”
After entering the dense forest, after walking about ten kilometers, the scenery in front of me changed again, and the front was no longer a forest, but one after another green bamboo.
Gao Dalu stopped, pointed ahead, and said, "That's the green bamboo forest, the place where you assessed." ”
Meng Qingxiao was curious: "Why is the assessment venue so far away from the gang?" ”
Gao Dalu said: "This is a trial ground shared by our four gangs, do you think it is far away, the Xuanwu Gang is going to come farther." ”
"That means I'm likely to run into three other gang members inside?"
"Well, yes."
"What if it does?"
Gao Dalu smiled slightly and asked rhetorically, "What do you think?" ”
"Kill them!" Meng Qingxiao did not hesitate and immediately said viciously.
"Hahahaha, it's worthy of you, come with me, I'll tell you about ambergris."
Gao Dalu said and walked towards the green bamboo forest, Meng Qingxiao followed, they didn't go far deeper, and suddenly there was a fog on the ground, that is, in just a dozen seconds, the surrounding area was already filled with fog, and it was almost impossible to see things three feet away.
"Holy, this fog is so weird?" Meng Qingxiao was taken aback.
"Don't worry, there's nothing dangerous about the fog itself." Gao Dalu comforted, "Its only function is to obstruct your vision, of course, if your sense of direction is too poor, you may also get lost in it and not be able to get out." ”
Gao Dalu bent down and pulled up a grass from the ground, and said to Meng Qingxiao: "This is ambergris, but this ambergris is useless, what you need to find is the kind of six-leaf ambergris, which can only be found in the depths of the green bamboo forest, and after finding the six-leaf ambergris, you can come out." ”
Meng Qingxiao also plucked one from the ground, this ambergris grass has only two leaves, its leaves are very fat, much like the wasp (scientific name purslane) that is everywhere in their old house in Xinlu, but it is much larger than the leaves of the wasp, at least three times larger, and it is drop-shaped.
Gao Dalu continued: "Your assessment time is three days, I will not leave in these three days, I will always wait for you outside the bamboo forest, you must come here to find me, only to complete the assessment, if you have not walked out for more than three days, or walked out from other places, it will be regarded as a failure in the assessment." ”
"You get it, don't you?"
Meng Qingxiao nodded, and said with a sigh: "Understood." ”
"Do you have any more questions for me, if not, go in."
"yes, that's the question." Meng Qingxiao pondered for a moment, "Have you married a wife?" ”
Gao Dalu said expressionlessly: "No." ”
Meng Qingxiao asked again: "Could it be that you are still a virgin?" ”
"Get out." Tall and bared his sleeves and left, too lazy to pay attention to this guy.
Meng Qingxiao laughed and turned into the depths of the mist.
For the beginning of this assessment, Meng Qingxiao said that he must be able to pass, in fact, he wanted to use the battle armor to fly in at night, with the deformed technology tree of this world, he believed that nothing should be able to stop him.
The reason why it is said to be deformed is because Meng Qingxiao observed that he didn't even see a means of transportation, and the goods used in the market were actually board cars.
The first thing that can be considered high-tech should be the energy shield of the Easy Gang.
The second high-tech product is Xiaoyaozi's waning moon.
Although Meng Qingxiao couldn't figure out the principle, he could see at a glance that this weapon was not a fantasy artifact, but a high-tech weapon.
There is no fantasy in this world, there are just some things that you don't understand yet.
The third high-tech product is the computer that measures the level of repair.
All these things, all of them are around fighting, and this is a world that worships force, and they don't care about anything that has nothing to do with force.
