Qi Yan pushed his glasses: "... Thanks for the compliment. ”

Usually when he does this action, he will give Qin Rang a sense of "what kind of calculation is this guy doing", but at this moment, Xiao Qi's action of pushing his glasses is like a cute child pretending to be mature.

After washing up, Lu Zhi on the side took out a box of cigarettes from his inner pocket, and he planned to take a cigarette to wake up.

Qi Ji has the impression that Lu Zhi rarely smokes, or rather, Lu Zhi will not smoke in front of Qi Xiaonian.

Lu Zhi noticed Qi Yan's gaze, and also learned from Qin Rang's appearance and said, "Hey, it's useless to watch, children are not allowed to smoke." ”

He imitated the tone of the cart worker last night.

Qi Jiu: ......

It seems that both of his companions are in a relaxed state this morning, which is a good start.

"Oh, that's it, Brother Lu is really strict," Xiao Qijiu pushed his glasses again and quipped, "I will tell Xiao Nian about Brother Lu stopping children from smoking, Xiao Nian likes honest boys very much." ”

Lu Zhi was stunned for a moment, and in the next second, he immediately took back the unlit cigarette from the cigarette case: "Ahem, you don't have to, I actually quit smoking for a long time... Really..."

Xiao Qi smiled: "Oh, I see." ”

Chapter 122: Highway Circus (16)

As the sky grew brighter, there was a sound in the rest area outside the tent.

As soon as the players wanted to go out to see what was going on, the tent door curtain was lifted from the outside in, and the staff in blue uniforms bowed slightly and entered the tourist rest tent, and the wet wind of dawn also leaked into the tent with his movements.

"Good morning, dear visitors," the blue-uniformed staff looked at everyone with bony eyes and smiled regretfully, "It seems that there were no tourists to eat the tent we provided for supper last night, what a pity." ”

Everyone immediately exchanged glances in understanding, it seems that after eating those green snacks, the player's body will have obvious "side effects", otherwise the blue uniform work would not have just glanced at it and knew that none of them were eating supper.

"I'm sorry for what happened last night," the blue-uniformed staff pointed to the mottled blood stains outside the tent, "It seems that some tourists didn't follow the rules and left the tent without permission last night, and on such a foggy night, something terrible may happen outside the tent, so everyone must abide by the rules on the guide." ”

"If you really have to leave the tent as a last resort, remember to fill your stomach and protect yourself." The blue-uniformed staff smiled secretly.

Fill your stomach and protect yourself?

Is it possible to eat a late-night snack to avoid being killed by dangerous elements outside the tent?

"In order to allow tourists to better protect themselves during the next performance, I have prepared a "Tourist Safety and Confidentiality Agreement" here, please read the terms of the agreement carefully, I have signed the name for you in advance, you are welcome." Said the blue uniform staff.

Everyone: "......"

You've signed and confirmed our names, won't this agreement become a unilateral demand from the circus? We don't have the right to refuse, and it's called a fart agreement.

The Blue Uniform staff distributed the "Road Circus Visitor Safety and Non-Disclosure Agreement" to each player one by one:

"Dear visitors, good morning. Congratulations on the successful completion of last night's performance, in order to ensure the smooth progress of the next performance, please strictly abide by the following regulations:

1. Do not inform other tourists of the content of the project that has already been watched, otherwise it will infringe on the rights and interests of the relevant cast and crew, remember!

2. As a tourist, please refrain from harming other visitors in the public area, and be careful of other people who are not tourists.

Please keep in mind the above rules, respect life, and live in a civilized manner."

Fortunately, there was no deliberately blacked out part of this "agreement", and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Qi Ji looked thoughtfully at the second rule and asked, "I see that there is a mention of "itinerant people who are not tourists", could it be that there are other people in the circus besides the staff and tourists?" ”

Blue-uniformed staff: "Sorry, although our security is strict, there is no guarantee that dangerous elements will not get in. ”

Qi Ji continued to probe: "Who exactly are these dangerous elements? ”

The blue-uniformed staff shrugged: "I can't answer your question exactly, but I can only tell you that in the eyes of service personnel like us, some scum must be cleared out of the road circus, but they haven't found the right time yet." ”

Qi Yan was silent for a moment, and he looked at the blue uniformed staff fixedly: "Really?" ”

"Of course, we, the circus service staff, must be responsible for the safety of our visitors." The blue-uniformed staff said firmly.

Qi Yan pursed his lips and asked deliberately in a cliché, "But after we came out of Mr. Clown's tent last night, the reception staff we met didn't seem to say that." ”

Qin Rang glanced at Qi Yan and thought to himself that here it is again, this Chacha's teammate is online again.

The blue-uniformed staff raised their eyebrows slightly: "What did the receptionist say?" ”

Qi Zhen scratched his head: "I can't remember the specifics, but my impression is different from you......"

The staff in blue uniform snorted in a low voice, and said with disgust: "Oh, I only say the above on behalf of my own identity, dear tourists, we will be responsible for your safety anyway." ”

As he spoke, the staff straightened their backs and subconsciously shook their blue work uniforms.

Qi Zhen looked at his actions, and his mind was already guessing.

"We are responsible for the safety of our visitors" –

Similar words have appeared in the circus "Tourist Safety Instructions"!

"I see, Mr. Staff," Qi Zhen calmed down and suddenly called out to the blue-uniformed staff who were about to leave, "The fourth article on the "Visitor Safety Instructions": Please do not trust the staff outside the blue uniform, even if they claim to be the most senior staff member of the circus, remember that only the staff in the blue uniform will be willing to be responsible for the safety of the guests. Am I right? ”

The part that was blacked out before was the "blue uniform".

The blue-uniformed staff who was about to leave turned his head, he glanced at Qi Yan deeply, and then raised the corners of his lips happily: "Dear visitor, although you look very young, you are very smart, and we look forward to you having a good time in our circus." ”

That's right!

Qi Jiu's tense nerves relaxed slightly, and at the same time, the system sent a hint and reward for successfully unlocking the hidden rules-

[Congratulations on completing the missing part of the fourth content of "Safety Instructions" and unlocking Survival Coins*200]

[Complete the contents of the rules to obtain additional item rewards: "Blue Uniform Staff's Favor]*1]

["Blue Uniform Staff's Favor" Instructions: You have a high popularity in the Blue Uniform Staff group, you can summon the Blue Uniform Staff once in any scene of the circus, and they can help you solve many tricky problems and dangerous situations]

Qi Jiu is very satisfied with this unlocked additional reward.

Next, all players with guest status were prompted to unlock the rules.

In an instant, everyone simply exploded.

"Damn, the staff member who gave us the tip last night... It's a red uniform! ”

"So he's lying all the way? Animals are not dangerous? Won't we be turned into performing animals either? ”

He prompted, "Please don't trust the staff who are peddling food in the tent!" It seems ...... that way" The player who said this happened to believe the staff in red uniforms, and did not buy the supper sold by the cart in the tent last night.

And the other player, like him, who didn't buy a late-night snack, has become a blurry puddle of rotten meat outside the tent......

"Qi Yan, what do you think is going on?" Qin Rang was very confused, and turned around and asked Qi Zheng's opinion, "Isn't the hypothesis that we deduced that eating those green foods will turn into animals valid?" ”

Although Qi Yan looked like a seven or eight-year-old child, Qin Rang knew that this "little friend" was reliable enough.

Qi Zhen rarely showed an embarrassed expression, he shook his head, and his voice was low as if he was muttering to himself: "I'm not sure, the rules only say that 'only staff in blue uniforms will be willing to be responsible for the safety of tourists', but the "safety" mentioned in the rules... What exactly is that defined? Won't you be killed? So is it safe to become an animal? ”

Qin Rang heard it in a fog: "Huh? What do you mean? ”

"Last night, the staff who peddled supper in the tent were wearing blue uniforms, if the hypothesis that "tourists are transformed into animals by eating green food" is true, then the staff in blue uniforms want tourists to become animals..."

Qin Rang: "Huh? So? ”

"Let's assume that green food can turn visitors into performing animals, and the safety of visitors is the responsibility of the blue uniformed staff, who are selling green food, and they secretly want the tourists to become animals...... Is it possible that the transformation into the animal itself means that the safety of tourists can be guaranteed? ”

Qi Yan's thinking was running rapidly, and he said directly what he thought, causing Qin Rang, who couldn't keep up with his train of thought, to be even more confused.

But Qin Rang understood the last sentence: "It makes sense to say that, if tourists become circus animals...... Isn't there a need to participate in dangerous spectators? Does the main quest also change with identity? ”

"What happened to that uncle last night may also be avoided because of the identity of the animal..."Following Qi Yan's assumptions, Qin Rang began to speculate on himself.

The more he thought about it, the more reasonable he felt, maybe turning into an animal could really ensure the safety of the player!

In the urban weird talk that players have heard in the past, "making animals" is synonymous with circus horror legends, but the "Rules Book" has always been very cunning and likes to do the opposite, maybe the transformation of humans into animals itself is the shortcut to clear the dungeon?

"But that's all speculation on my part, and we have to figure out how players react when they eat green food." Qi Yan said.

But in the case of uncertainty, the risk of eating green food without permission is still too great.

Even if players can avoid many risks after becoming animals, a new question arises, how can players who become animals regain the human body?

Before figuring out the specific rules and logic, Qi Ji will not act rashly.

And his goal was never to become an animal, but to get a position as an animal trainer who could tame that guy.

The staff in blue uniforms glanced at the time and announced, "Dear visitors, please note that the next show will take place at 9 o'clock in the morning, so please don't be late." ”

"It's still early, you can check out the lounge area, the cast and crew are selling their specialty food again, but remember to eat with caution."

After the explanation, the blue-uniformed staff left the tent.

By this time, the rest area outside the tent had become lively, and the sound of footsteps and shouting broke the quiet of the early morning.

As people left their tents one after another, the night fog had completely cleared, and just like last night, the rest area was full of itinerant vendors and tourists.

Overcast clouds pressed low on the distant horizon, as if a heavy rain was brewing, making the circus on the wilderness road look even more depressed

Moist winds blew from all sides of the wilderness, and the air smelled of rocks and moss.

Qi Yan walked into the crowd, and among the tourists and players who came and went, only he still maintained the appearance of a child.

Qin Rang grinned and said, "Qi Yan, it seems that you will have the honor of being the youngest player in the circus. ”

"I don't mind if there are privileges." Xiao Qi shrugged.

Because he was a lot shorter than before, Qi Ji now had to tilt his head hard to see the food being sold by the itinerant vendors.

Qi Yan soon noticed that the number of street vendors pushing carts walking in the rest area increased.

Last night there were only clowns selling desserts, acrobats selling barbecue and magicians selling drinks, but this morning there was also a stall selling colorful sugar dolls.

The candy doll booth was parked in a corner of the lounge area, almost blocked by the dazzling array of red balloons and sequined costumes flowing through the crowd, and the salesman in the wooden mask and candy-colored floral dress was also low-key, and could even be described as passive, not only did she not shout at her wares, but she also leaned against the fence of the lounge area with her arms crossed, with an impatient gesture that you would like to buy or not.

"Borrow it."

Xiao Qi Zhen worked hard through the crowd and came to the sugar doll stall and tried to stand on his toes.

When he saw the sugar dolls sold at the stall, he quickly confirmed his guess -

Chapter 123: Highway Circus (17)

Lifelike sugar dolls are skewered on maple sticks, and it seems that in order to enrich the taste, the exquisitely crafted sugar dolls are sprinkled with various nut crumbles.
