Chapter 36: Yingxian Tower

Lin Qi heard someone shouting at him above, and when he looked up, he saw the blind bear Xia Zimo waving at him.

"Let's go, let's get out. We'll work together next time. ”

"Haha, next time we won't be level 20, when your level comes up, let's have a copy together."

Xiao Maomao said with a little regret, and the others echoed it.

"Yes, our group of 20-level students have graduated from Yingjie Town, and the future belongs to you young people, hahaha."

"Come on! Lads! ”

Lin Qi reacted at this time, in order to cope with the difficulty change of the beast tide, the bear blind man stipulated that the level of players participating should not be higher than 20. These people have been guarding Yingjie Town for a long time, and they are finally leaving.

Inexplicably a little melancholy and sour, Lin Qi stopped and arched his hand towards these lovely players beside him.

"The coming days are long, and the rivers and lakes will reunite!"

Everyone was taken aback by Lin Qi's move, but they were all a little excited and excited.

"Good! Reunion! ”

"Haha, each other!"

"Xiao Popo, I didn't expect you to be quite emotional!"

"Haha, he's a hearty boy, my brother likes it!"

"I'll go, what should I do if I'm a little moved, it's like graduation season!"

Looking at the actions of the players below, Yan Shuwan was also a little touched.

"Xiao Qi ...... Something seems to have changed. ”

"Oh, after all these years, who can not change? Let's go, let's go down and find him. ”

"Hmm."

The two of them walked down the stairs from the side, just in time to meet the people returning to the town.

'Everyone worked hard and it went very well defensively, thank you. Go back early and get some rest, as the rewards will be distributed later. ”

"Thank you, Lord!"

"Long live the Elder Adult!"

The crowd cheered and dispersed, announcing the perfect end of today's beast tide event.

"Huh? And the rewards? How did I not know? ”

Lin Qi looked at Xia Zimo suspiciously, and his expression seemed to be a loss of 100 million.

"It's thanks to you! When the mayor returned, he inquired about the situation of the beast tide, and when he heard that we were helping to defend the city, he said that he would give us a subsidy. I also just learned from the guild group, and you have caught up with it, and this is a rare opportunity to get money. ”

Lin Qi stretched out his hand directly: "Well, give it to me directly." ”

Xia Zimo blinked, tilted her head, and asked puzzledly, "What?" ”

"Money? Didn't you say I have it too? ”

"Your share, I invited Wan'er to eat at noon, and it has already been used."

"Huh?" Lin Qi was confused.

"Hey, hey, hey, it hurts! Hurt! What are you pinching me for? ”

Xia Zimo looked at Yan Shuwan beside her with grief and indignation, her helpless and regretful expression was like looking at her daughter who couldn't get married.

Lin Qi also looked at the girl with long white hair, and looked at it closely, this character pinched her face and pinched it quite well.

Long white hair, red eyes, slender and tall, black tight-fitting suit, and a white gauze skirt on the outside.

Noticing Lin Qi's gaze, Xia Zimo was a little shy: "Xiao Qi, don't look at me like this." ”

"Oh, it's Xiaowan. You're here too. ”

"Hey! Why are you in a tone that has lost interest! Bully my family Wan'er, be careful that I beat you! ”

Lin Qi was inexplicably beaten, a little confused, and looked at Yan Shuwan with a confused expression.

(What's wrong with this woman?) )

Yan Shuwan gave Lin Qi a helpless expression.

(She's not smart when she's young, so don't worry about her.) )

"Hey, what are you doing with your eyebrows? Speak ill of me! ”

Xia Zimo caught a glimpse of the interaction between the two at a glance, angry and funny.

Yan Shuwan's small movements were broken, and she looked panicked: "No, no." ”

"Xiaowan, what career did you choose this time? I'm not on the team, I don't see any other player attributes. ”

Lin Qi broke the embarrassment and asked Yan Shuwan.

"Samurai, heavy sword flow. I'm still confident in my fitness and flexibility. ”

Yan Shuwan took out a heavy sword as she spoke, unlike Lin Qi's level 5 little ragged, this was a thicker and more imposing large weapon, almost taller than her character.

"This ...... The contrast is a bit big. How many levels are you? ”

"Level 7, I haven't practiced much lately."

"Hey, I can understand how much you miss you guys who haven't seen you in years. Can we find a place to sit down and have a good conversation? ”

So, the three of them went to Yingxian Building, a newly opened small restaurant in the town.

This is also a product of the version update, because to create a more realistic ecological environment, some non-system function-oriented buildings have begun to appear.

Yingxian Tower is located on West Street, which is a newly developed street, and the three of them are all coming for the first time. This is a commercial street, in addition to restaurants, there are pawnshops, blacksmiths, jewelry and various street stalls, quite a night market flavor.

As soon as I walked into the restaurant, a junior second greeted me and greeted him respectfully.

"Welcome, how many of you?"

"Four, do you have a private room?"

"Yes, yes, please go up to the 3rd floor, and I'll take you there."

Following Xiao Er up, the three of them entered a private room with a large round table inside.

"Do you want to order now, or do you wait for someone to order later?"

"Order now, you can just order whatever you want, and then have a pot of tea."

"Okay! Wait, it'll be served! ”

After Xia Zimo let Xiao Er go down, she showed a happy smile: "I can finally order like this, it's so cool, haha." Epic update, kudos to the planner! ”

"I don't know what it's like to eat in this game, will I be full?"

Yan Shuwan was a little curious, she had only logged in twice in total, and the experience of the game was relatively small.

"We didn't know, so we had some fruit and potions before. I don't go hungry, so I haven't eaten officially. ”

"Anyone else coming?"

Lin Qi asked with some puzzlement.

"Yes, you and Wan'er chat, it's not good for me to be a light bulb. I'll have to find a little brother with me. ”

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

Lin Qi and Yan Shuwan were both shocked by Xia Zimo's speech.

"Oh, the founding of the country......"

Yan Shuwan breathed a long sigh of relief: "I thought you were ...... Hey......"

Lin Qi didn't know who they were talking about, Xia Zimo added in time.

"The first knife in Jiangnan, the guy who took the knife last time you went to the beast tide was my boyfriend."

(Oh...... )

Lin Qi had some impression of that person, he was a very powerful guy in the mouth of the excavator. It seems that the personalities are a little exaggerated, but looking at Xia Zimo, it seems that the personalities of the two people are quite compatible.

"Xiao Qi, I won't be able to contact you after you retire. How are you now? ”

"It's okay, I'm a sophomore."

"Which school?"

Shanghai Information Science and Technology University. What about you? ”

"I'm a freshman, and so is she, and we're both at Jingcheng University."

"Wow, they're all top students, admire and admire."

Lin Qi arched his hand, he was really surprised and admired, after all, he didn't have the ability to be admitted to the capital.

"That...... I heard your parents ......"

Yan Shuwan didn't know how to say it, but if she didn't ask it in person, she was afraid that she wouldn't know how to speak offline.

"Missing, haven't been found yet."

Yan Shuwan has inquired and has a certain amount of preparation in her heart.

"And how are you going to live now?"

"I rented a small house and made money by playing games and selling money. It's a little tight, but life can go on. ”

Xia Zimo was shocked, looking at the young man in front of him, his world was completely different from his own, and he inexplicably felt guilty.

Yan Shuwan burst into tears directly, and she stepped forward sideways and grabbed Lin Qi's hand.

"Xiao Qi, why didn't you come to me? You're such a person...... We're all worried about you. ”

Lin Qi was pulled by his hand and subconsciously wanted to withdraw it, but Yan Shuwan held it very tightly, and looking at her sad appearance, she couldn't bear to pull her hand.

"It's fine. I have a small family that takes good care of me. Life certainly can't compare to you, but it can't be hard. ”

Yan Shuwan had a lot of things to say to Lin Qi in her heart, but she didn't know how to speak.

That summer, they worked hard together and finally won the MOBA Esports World Championship. The team built from scratch is a luxury lineup except for itself, but it is still hard. The figure of that teenager, in that hot summer vacation, left a deep imprint on her heart.

Since then, the teenager first announced his retirement, and then disappeared from the public eye. Even he couldn't contact the teenager, and finally found the teenager's contact information through many inquiries, but he never replied.

He can talk about it now, it looks like he's coming out of the gloom, but who knows how he's spent the last few years. It must have been dark and lonely days, alone and alone.

The more Yan Shuwan was like this, the more she couldn't imagine what kind of pain Lin Qi had experienced, she stared at Lin Qi closely, summoned up all her courage, and turned the thoughts in her heart into words.

"Xiao Qi, I miss you very much......"

"Roar! It's late! I've been waiting for you! ”

An exaggerated man swaggered the door and walked into the box, and his oversized voice directly frightened Yan Shuwan into retracting her hand. Although the man was very arrogant, he also felt that the atmosphere in the room was a little wrong, and hurriedly sat down beside Xia Zimo.

"Hey, am I here at the wrong time?"

"It's all you! I almost got to watch a good show! ”

The two exchanged heads and muttered to each other, but Lin Qi and Yan Shuwan blushed in embarrassment.

The man knew it was his fault, but it was already like this, and he couldn't let the atmosphere go on anymore. He stood up and stretched out his hand to Lin Qi.

"Haha, let's get to know you officially, my name is Zhou Jianguo, and I am now Wan'er's boyfriend, a senior at Beijing University. The name of the game is the first knife in Jiangnan, you can call me Jianguo, or call me Brother Dao. I'm supposed to be the biggest, right? ”

Lin Qi and Zhou Jianguo shook hands: "Hello Brother Dao, my name is Lin Qi." Sophomore year at Shanghai University of Information Science and Technology. ”

"Haha, you've been popular lately. I've also watched the battle between you and the NPCs in the gold list, and it's pretty powerful. I don't think I can beat her, haha, we still need to work hard! ”

"Wherever, I want to learn from Brother Dao when I have the opportunity."

"Oh, that's for sure. I'm almost every day, my senior year is too leisurely, and my goal is to be at the top of the bronze list. However, it still can't catch up with Lao Gao's progress. ”

Xia Zimo interjected at the right time and said: "He is trained by others, and he is very busy, where does he have time to soak in the game every day." ”

Yan Shuwan suddenly asked, "Zimo, have you and Xiaoqi ever known each other?" ”

Xia Zimo shook his head: "I know him, he just doesn't know me." ”

Yan Shuwan laughed lightly, pointed at Xia Zimo and looked at Lin Qi: "She is Xia Zimo, my little friend." She is very good at playing games, but she belongs to that kind of theoretical party, but the actual operation speed can't go up, and people in the industry call Wang Yuyan of e-sports. ”

"Hey, you just debunked my old bottom. How am I going to mess up? ”

Xia Zimo pinched Yan Shuwan's arm, but she didn't use any force.

"You're so famous, you can search directly if you know your name, what's there to hide. In the future, we will play games together, and we may have to cooperate more often. ”

Lin Qi nodded lightly: "E-sports Wang Yuyan has heard of it, a master of strategy and tactics, and she is also a big beauty." Brother Dao is blessed. ”

"Haha, that's, don't you see who I am? Hahaha. ”

Zhou Jianguo laughed out loud, but was slapped by Yan Shuwan.

"People are praising me, but you're getting proud."

The four of them talked and laughed, and the relationship gradually became harmonious.

Soon Xiao Er sent the vegetables and tea over, which was very authentic Northwest cuisine.

"Northwest towns so it's Northwest cuisine? This one is a bit detailed. ”

Zhou Jianguo was full of praise for the dishes, and the other three also nodded.

The taste was there, but there was no feeling of fullness after eating, which made Lin Qi very surprised.

"It tastes good, oh yes, I'll pay for it today, which can be regarded as an apology for Lin Qi."

Xia Zimo looked at the price on the menu with a little pain, this meal cost more than a dozen silver coins.

(No, it will be reimbursed according to the entertainment expenses.) )

"Thank you very much."

Lin Qi was also unceremonious, this girl had brought a lot of trouble to herself, but for Xiaowan's sake, she didn't care anymore.

The happy dinner was over, and when he walked out of Yingxian Tower, Zhou Jianguo suddenly patted his head.

"Hey, I forgot about it. Zimo, my grandfather asked me to go back to dinner tonight, and it's almost time for me to leave. I'll look for you again in the evening. ”

The three of them were stunned for a moment, and they all looked at the time, and it was indeed almost time for dinner. It's like having just finished a meal, why do you want to eat again, this feeling is weird.

"Let's go, let's go." Xia Zimo waved her hand and pushed Zhou Jianguo away: "Wan'er, what are we going to eat at night?" ”

"As long as it's not pizza, I can do it."

"That's a burger! Walk you! ”

Yan Shuwan was speechless: "How much you like junk food." Ay...... Xiao Qi, let's go down first, are you still there at night? ”。

"Well, I think I've been sleeping all the time lately."

Yan Shuwan nodded: "Then I'll come to you later." ”
