Chapter 075: The Disappeared Players
But these tokens are hard-won.
Take just now, a token was hidden in the cave of the cunning hyena, Ning Chang ran frantically, and a dozen hyenas grinned and chased after him, chasing Ning Chang out of twenty miles before he returned stupidly.
What you have worked so hard to get, can you easily give green tea?
Dreaming.
Later, he went to catch two Dafei chickens, picked some wild fruits, and prepared to withdraw to the camp in the evening.
Ning Chang ran all the way, and finally rushed back before sunset.
I immediately looked at the stone monument in the center of the clearing.
There is still no change, and each token is still 50, which means that no one has completed the promotion until now.
"Besides Luo Li, hasn't anyone collected the tokens yet?"
Ning Changjiu thought secretly in his heart, muttering in his mouth.
In fact, I was a little surprised, the other players, including Shen Qian, Tang Mingsheng, Song Shangtian and others, they all acted in teams, but they couldn't collect a set of tokens?
Or is it because of the number of people, it can't be reasonably distributed?
The team of these three people is the largest and the strongest.
It stands to reason that their lineup can find a set of tokens, and then they can make one of the team advance.
But it seems that they don't want to do this, they all want to secretly maintain the competitiveness of the team, try to rely on the advantage of numbers, and find more tokens, so that more players in the team can advance together on the last day.
Ning Chang stood in front of the stone tablet and fell into thought.
In the next few days, it will be more and more difficult to find tokens, and maybe different teams will fight each other in order to advance.
At this time, Ma Yingying came over with some wild fruits and said softly: "For a long time, what are you doing standing here, I picked some wild fruits that taste better, you taste them, by the way, give me these two chickens, and drink chicken soup tonight." ”
Ning Changchang was also unceremoniously, handed over the chicken, took the wild fruit and ate it, sweet and sour, it was indeed better than picking it himself.
"Looks like I've wasted these wild fruits. ”
He said as he ate.
"No, when you stew chicken soup, you can add wild fruits to improve the taste, so that it tastes better. ”
Ma Yingying said with a smile.
After that, the atmosphere between the two became silent.
Ning Chang was no longer too lazy to ridicule this green tea, and their current relationship was just to use each other, and Ma Yingying was also very knowledgeable, and she kept wearing a fake smile on her face to hide her green tea smell.
But when lonely men and widows are together, even if they can restrain themselves, it is impossible not to communicate.
"How's it going, what's the injury on your right arm?"
Ning Changjiu forcibly broke the silence, even if it was an awkward conversation, he always had to talk about two sentences, otherwise how could he cooperate?
"Do you care about me? Ma Yingying was stunned for a moment, and then said with joy: "It's much better to have your concern." ”
Ning Changjiu: "......"
He was speechless again, and he couldn't stand Ma Yingying's appearance when she spoke.
And in the camp meeting room......
"Master Wei, there are five fewer students who have returned to the camp today, have you noticed anything strange?"
Gao Tianliang looked nervous and asked as he paced.
"I didn't notice anything wrong, maybe they were lost, or maybe they got the time wrong. ”
Wei Yibo touched his chin and replied with a frown.
"I didn't receive a call for help from the numbered token, so there should be no problem, let's talk about it a day. ”
Zhao Jixiang, the city lord of Huang Ama City, also expressed his opinion.
And so time passed, and it came to the third day.
That night, there were fifteen fewer players in the camp, plus the nine players from the previous day, a total of twenty-four people suddenly disappeared, and the imperial soldiers led by Wei Yibo did not receive a distress signal.
"What the hell is going on? Could it be that there is a problem with the code of the Xuanjin array numbering the token?"
As one of the officers in charge of this knockout match, Zhao Jixiang had an ominous premonition and wandered in his heart.
And Gao Tianliang, with a pale face, did not answer, and responded silently.
At this time, Wei Yibo rushed into the conference room, his tone was frightened, and said: "I checked the stone tablet and the number tokens of the players, there is no problem, if the token is broken, the stone tablet will react, but obviously, these twenty-four people have not broken their tokens." ”
People disappear out of thin air?
"Completely lock down the news and don't let people from the major colleges know about it, so as not to cause panic. ”
Gao Tianliang said to the two.
As the deputy director of the Ministry of War, the chief officer of this knockout competition, Wei Yibo did not dare to slack off, and immediately dispatched the elite soldiers of the empire to set off to search the entire Emperor Ama City.
That night all night, nothing substantial was gained.
But there were already rumors in the camp, Shen Qian, Tang Mingsheng, Song Shangtian and others all found that there were fewer members in their team, and they did not see anyone alive or dead, and they were very evil.
"How's it going?
Seeing Wei Yibo returning to the camp conference room after a busy night, Gao Tianliang immediately greeted him and asked anxiously.
Wei Yibo's expression was complicated, he just shook his head, and then said in a slurred voice: "I didn't see people, but the clothes were found one after another in the mountains and forests, and the tokens, money bags and some other food were there, but I didn't see anyone." ”
"Could it be that he was attacked by a strange beast?"
Zhao Jixiang stepped forward and asked.
"No, there are no traces of a fight in the place where the clothes were found, and I have taken people to investigate for a long time, and I will not be wrong. ”
Wei Yibo held the sword in his hand, his eyes were stern and dazed, he had never encountered such an evil thing in his life, if this matter made a big fuss in the camp, the consequences would be unimaginable, and even whether the [Daxing Emperor Examination] could continue was a problem.
"It seems that this matter will be reported to the Ministry of War. ”
Zhao Jixiang muttered to himself.
"Aren't Master Wei and I from the Ministry of War, I thought about this matter again and again and came to a conclusion. ”
Gao Tianliang's eyes turned around, and his footsteps paced back and forth, as if he had an answer in his heart.
"Then you don't say it quickly, what are you selling now? ”
Wei Yibo grabbed Gao Tianliang's shoulder and said eagerly.
"There are more than 200 contestants participating in the competition this time, including many people from private colleges and gang organizations. ”
"On Huang Ama Mountain, there are soldiers guarding all important places, and there has never been a special situation, so the disappearance of the contestants is also the work of our camp personnel, all things considered, who do you think is the most suspicious?"
Gao Tianliang, as the head of the military department, has always looked down on gang organizations, and he also has a lot of complaints about private colleges, because many third-class and ninth-rate players were born from them, so he has always opposed gangs and private colleges to participate in the [Daxing Emperor Examination].
This time, his fears were fulfilled. (To be continued)
