Chapter 250: One Sings Red Face, One Sings White Face! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
There was no communication along the way, this is how Zhang Yangqing and the one-eyed boy get along.
Both of them were carefully observing their surroundings, and it was normal for a strange insect to pop up around in such a place.
In addition to guarding against strange insects, it is also necessary to avoid being attacked by other people, because there is a shortage of food here, and it is not uncommon to survive by attacking others.
The One-Eyed Boy is also constantly worried about whether the crow will be exposed.
But he thought too much, the crow was home in this kind of place, and the pitch-black body completely disappeared into the jungle.
If he hadn't been able to sense it, the one-eyed boy would have thought the crow had flown away.
The sun had set, the sky was full of stars, and the moonlight was pleasant, as if to light the way forward for the two of them.
If it's not particularly dark, Zhang Yangqing feels that there is no need to use a flashlight, after all, in this kind of place, it is easy to attract the attention of others with a flashlight.
The evening breeze is light, the grass blades rustle, accompanied by the occasional chirping of birds, beasts and insects in the distance, which makes it even more secluded in the night.
Just when Zhang Yangqing was looking for the temple, some inexperienced Chosen ones in the first echelon also looked in the wrong direction.
Some found the nearby abandoned villages, and although the houses were dilapidated, there seemed to be a lot of people gathered here, all of whom had been turned away from the city.
There are also Chosen Ones who find a mine, and before they get closer, they smell a foul smell, as if they have experienced an attack, and as for what is inside, it seems that there is no need to explore.
After all, whoever has nothing to do will build a temple in the mine.
None of this was mentioned in the rules, and they began to explore other routes.
Some of the Chosen ones have been looking for hours and even found a hint like 'Scenic Sign' before finding the right path.
At this time, Zhang Yangqing and the one-eyed boy had already passed through a wooden mountain gate and stepped on the bluestone slab.
There was a slight light in front of me, and someone should have started a fire here, and the firelight illuminated the area.
It can be seen that the temple has been abandoned for a long time, and from the structure of the building, its walls have been mottled, and the beautifully carved wooden doors are half-open and half-closed.
Some areas are blackened by smoke and fire, and there are even traces of dilapidation, which are silently telling that this place has passed the baptism of time.
However, even though it has been dilapidated, you can still feel its former height and grandeur.
Zhang Yangqing and the one-eyed boy seemed to have been discovered as soon as they arrived here.
A few people gathered around, looking menacing.
"Are you human?"
The man at the head looked at the two strangers in front of him with a wary expression.
He was wearing a mask that was also a crow, and the flickering of light on the mask looked very frightening in the light of the fire at night.
But don't be afraid of the Chosen here, for they are also in the light of the fire at night, and they are just as scary!
"That's right, we couldn't get into the city, so we had to find a place to rest and make it here."
Zhang Yangqing personally explained, after all, the one-eyed boy doesn't have a lot of words.
To say this is to make it clear to these people that they are going through the same thing as they are.
Hearing this, the people on the other side seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
After all, the people who can get here are basically people who can't get into the city for various reasons.
If you can go in, who would come to a place where such a bird doesn't poop and suffer?
The man in charge was just about to let them in when a voice came from behind him.
"It's full here, go somewhere else."
A slightly caustic female voice came out.
She didn't seem to want outsiders to enter the temple.
This is actually very understandable, after all, in this kind of deep mountains and old forests, it is really not reassuring to let people you don't know rest by your side.
One less stranger, one more safe.
The man in charge also fell silent, after all, he was too embarrassed to speak, in fact, he didn't want people to come in.
Since someone said it, then he pretended not to speak first, and saw how the other side judged.
It can be seen that this guy also has a deep scheming.
Or rather, it's a script they've rehearsed and played for outsiders.
Here's a small conundrum to see how the Chosen ones respond to this sudden situation.
At this stage, El Greco and most of the Chosen ones choose to explain that they have no ill intentions.
By complaining about his misery, he eliminated everyone's vigilance against him, so as to integrate into this small group.
Zhang Yangqing's approach was relatively simple, as if he hadn't heard this sentence, he led people swaggering in.
Seeing that he was so strong, others didn't dare to stop him.
After all, everyone just wants to live, and they have all been infected with the virus, otherwise they wouldn't have gone in early?
Unless they are sure of killing, it is obviously unwise to fight with strangers and set up enemies at this time.
And the people here don't seem to have the same heart, they all have their own ghosts.
In that case, then who is afraid of whom.
The other Chosen ones also have their worries, after all, they are weak and they are not sure that they will be able to win against the people here.
According to the rules, the help of these people is also needed.
Without these people, they would not have found a way to enter the city, let alone find the location of the hive.
They also need to find a way to have a good relationship with these people and not have conflicts.
Now everyone's strength is unknown, so I don't dare to say too ugly.
Giving up some food in the right way can really please people.
It can also be said that the more the Chosen One wants to complete the hidden mission, the more humble this level becomes.
But Zhang Yangqing doesn't need it, he is a team in his own right, and his combat power can be said to be the strongest existence in this place.
Don't forget, those two weird crows are hovering nearby, as long as Zhang Yangqing wants to, no one here can live.
Your life and death are under my control, and you still have to negotiate terms with me?
It's good for me to keep you alive and talk to me.
So Zhang Yangqing's attitude is so arrogant and domineering.
When the leader saw that he was so arrogant, he saw that the wind made the rudder rise, and while the contradiction was not too big, he said: "You can't say that, we have a lot of positions here, besides, one more person will have more strength, and all the people who come are family." ”
As he spoke, he began to warmly greet Zhang Yangqing and the others into the temple.
This sentence can be said to be an afterthought, but it is also exquisite.
He saw that since Zhang Yangqing was not so easy to drive away, he hurriedly pulled Zhang Yangqing into his camp.
Anyway, it wasn't Zhang Yangqing who he offended, when others sang with a red face, he began to sing with a white face.
This would show his good intentions, at least on the surface.
Besides, the strength of a little temper is good, and those who don't have any ability will naturally retreat here.
This direct unreasonableness proves that he has the ability to be confident.
The two newcomers are still men, so they may be able to make good use of it.
Zhang Yangqing just nodded and said some normal things, and did not thank him for accepting himself.
After all, this is a deserted temple, and it's not your home.
Why should I act like I'm a guest?
Zhang Yangqing just felt that these people were still useful, and he was too lazy to stiffen the relationship.
When he came to the firelight, Zhang Yangqing found that many people here were wearing crow masks, and it was also to avoid being infected with other kinds of viruses.
As long as you wear a crow mask, you can communicate with other patients in close proximity.
The woman who had just spoken, dressed in a nurse's clothes and wearing a mask, could not see her appearance.
The night was dark, and there was no way to observe what virus was on people's necks.
At the rehabilitation center, the Chosen ones know some special ways of judging.
There are three types of people in the rehabilitation center, each carrying three different viruses, which are purple, red, and green.
The Chosen ones are all purple, so they can come into contact with patients who are also purple, so that they will not get sick.
Here, Hilde, the transcendent of Hans, has a ghost idea.
He felt that since only humans would be infected with the plague virus, then the one who did not have a mark on his neck was not a wormman?
Is that what the rules tell him?
In fact, here, experienced Chosen One knows that he thinks too much.
None of you here are doctors, so who can tell if the mark on your neck is real or fake?
Those who are not sick will definitely put a mark on their necks and disguise themselves as patients to blend in, and the purpose is not known for the time being.
Doesn't it seem a little abrupt for a person who is not sick in this place?
Therefore, the judgment method is very simple, that is, according to the rules, let the object of suspicion be infected with the three diseases silently.
As for what to do, the Chosen have just arrived in this place, and there is no way to obtain useful information for the time being.
As long as it is a smart chosen one, it will be constantly observing during this time.
And the audience seems to be able to perceive one thing, that is, the aura of the Chosen One has changed.
Most of the Chosen ones are trying to figure out how to fit into the rhythm of this place.
One of the Chosen ones began to do it at his own pace.
Those who are familiar with Zhang Yangqing know that as long as he knows the rules of customs clearance, in fact, the restrictions on him in the strange world are not very great.
The time is around half past nine, and it is not yet time to rest, and there are still some people moving in the temple.
Zhang Yangqing first observed the nearby buildings.
There are two large halls dedicated to the gods, which look a little dilapidated and have not been cleaned.
In addition to this, there are five small rooms, two of which have collapsed, and only three can accommodate people.
As latecomers, the Chosen ones naturally have no room to live in.
After all, I don't know anything about the situation now, even if there is a place to sleep in the room, no one dares to lure the wolf into the room.
The middle-aged man who acted as a peacemaker next to Zhang Yangqing had a son.
They live in room 1 of the three houses.
The female nurse in the crow mask and her friend lived in room 2.
Here you can tell that there are three female nurses.
As for room 3, it is a family of four, a couple with two children.
In addition, there were five other people, male and female, who slept in the two idol halls, all of whom seemed to have come alone and were unidentified.
Now everyone is wearing masks, and no one knows what anyone looks like.
The mask should only be opened when eating.
It seems that no one wants to be infected with other types of viruses.
There is another point to note here, that is, the Chosen One, who carries a lot of food, seems to be targeted.
Like Zhang Yangqing, if you simply put food in your pocket, it is not easy to be noticed.
Even if the people here knew that they might have food hidden on them, it wasn't much.
"Today, you two can choose a place to deal with these two temples."
The middle-aged uncle should have come earlier, or have a good relationship with other people.
So his words still have a certain prestige.
It's as if he's just doing the distribution.
The other Chosen ones also knew that they had just arrived here, and it was impossible for them to have conflicts with the people here, so they thanked them and agreed.
Zhang Yangqing nodded and didn't say anything else.
According to a night's inquiry, there were 14 people here in addition to the Chosen One.
Some people seem to have rested in their rooms, or they don't want to come out for some reason, so there are only about seven or eight people in front of the Chosen One.
These people were either roasting near the fire, or leaning against the edge of the pillar, and a few were beside the Chosen One.
Without exception, the seven or eight people outside were also very wary of looking at the Chosen One, and they all seemed to be carefully observing the Chosen One.
After being covered with some basic information, the middle-aged man did not continue, and seemed to wait for the next stage.
The so-called next stage is the recognition of the Chosen One by other people who are observing.
If they all say casually or agree, then the middle-aged man will tell the Chosen One something.
This time is also the stage of free observation of the Chosen One.
Aside from not going near those three houses, the Chosen One seems to be able to go anywhere else.
The first thing the Chosen One has to do is, of course, choose a place to rest tonight.
There are two temples, one of which houses an idol with eyes open, and the other with eyes closed.
Here, Hilde, the transcendent of the Hans Kingdom, thought of a rule.
[Rule 3: If you can't enter the city, you can find an abandoned temple outside the city, where it won't be attacked by bugs.] 】
"Bugs don't attack here, is it because there are special rules, or is there something strange about this idol?"
Hield began to murmur inwardly.
Being able to think of this actually proves that he is already a chosen one who can gather intelligence.
At least in this weird world, there is a relationship of restraint in some things.
For example, the material of the statue of the god, or the fact that there are other things in the temple that scare the strange insects.
If you can find this thing, it will be a huge help for clearing the level.
As for the [Red and Blue Potion] [Well] [Black Mandarin Fruit] mentioned by the rules, and the like.
The Chosen ones are not stupid enough to say it all at once.
It's easy to see that something is wrong, and it's hard to explain.
One of the questions to be solved right now is where to sleep.
In this large hall, where the eyes of the god are opened, there are three lone wolves living in it.
The temple looks relatively clean, seems to have been cleaned, and there is only one statue of a god inside.
The other is that there are two lone wolves living there, which is a bit dirty, but there are more small idols inside, which are on both sides.
It is said to be living, but in fact, it is just to find a random place to sleep.
Not to mention the carpet, there is not even a quilt to cover.
Here, Zhang Yangqing habitually complained about the poor rest environment of the strange talk world, and knew to move the car seat up.
Then we started to analyze the situation.
The father and son, three nurses, a family of four.
They basically belong to their respective camps, and they all have certain trustworthy helpers.
If they are in a union relationship, then these nine people are the sovereigns of the temple.
Here, most of the other Chosen One would choose the temple where two people lived, creating a delicate balance.
Zhang Yangqing is different, he chose this temple where the three of them lived.
The audience suddenly understood something when they saw this, and everyone was analyzing why Zhang Yangqing chose this way.
Because as long as he has to win over the other three, then he has five people.
It also has a certain status and right to speak in this temple.
Don't look at the dozen or so people here, the mystery inside is not small.
Just like a small complex society, how to stand up is what the Chosen One has to do at the moment.
It's not that the audience is over-interpreting Zhang Yangqing's every move, but Zhang Yangqing's every move is indeed mysterious.
Not only ordinary audiences, but even the expert group and the major transcendent forces are also analyzing.
If Zhang Yangqing knew that they were analyzing, he would definitely say: In fact, is there a possibility, the main thing is that this side is relatively clean
In fact, Zhang Yangqing has many strong people, and it doesn't matter which side he chooses.
Who said that only these three can be co-opted? Or these five?
His style of play is not so humble.
Now that you know how to pass the level, let's play openly.
Zhang Yangqing looked for a clean place in the temple, and said to the one-eyed boy: "You rest first, and I will call you then." ”
It's a simple phrase, but the message is clear.
The temple wasn't safe, at least some people didn't welcome them, but they wouldn't attack the Chosen One for the time being.
The rules say that this place will not be attacked by insects, so it is impossible for insects to attack them.
But the rule just says that you won't be attacked by insects.
There must be other unknown places in the vicinity, and there must be people living in these places who have been denied entry by the city.
When people in those places run out of food, they will raid other places in search of food.
Zhang Yangqing can see through observation that some traces of this temple are not collapsed before, but have been damaged recently.
This shows that the temple has also been attacked.
Now there are two conjectures.
For one, the people in this temple were strong and repelled the others.
Second, the people who live here now are all the ones who have killed and robbed the former people.
In any case, Zhang Yangqing felt that he couldn't be careless.
Because he has his own team, he has a choice.
Even if the other Chosen One knew there was a problem, they could only gamble their lives here.
Because they want to integrate into the camp of the middle-aged uncle and accept his arrangement, so as to exchange for a chance to live.
The reason why Zhang Yangqing let the one-eyed boy rest at this point is also because he has been busy for a day, at least his body is very tired now.
In the case of partnership, you can't squeeze too much.
If Zhang Yangqing took his younger brother, he wouldn't be so polite.
The one-eyed boy also replied with a "um" as usual, and rested in the place chosen by Zhang Yangqing.
This kid is a submissive character, but it doesn't mean that he is a fool.
Only by obeying the arrangement of the strong can we live.
This is how the weak survive.
