Chapter 1917 Back
Just when Liu Xing was thinking about life, Ao Guanhai, who was drinking in the sky, suddenly had his eyelids twitching.
"Jump right eye jump Choi disaster?"
Ao Guanhai put down his wine glass and looked at the Black Pharaoh with some confusion, "Speaking of which, do we Nyarlathotep clones have such particularity? Is it just that the twitching of the eyelids is foreshadowing something?"
"Uh, Ao Guanhai, are you sick? We are Nyarlathotep's clones, how could our eyelids jump? You must know that we can control ourselves 100%, which is theoretically impossible There is behavior beyond our control." Black Pharaoh shook his head and said.
"Yes, I feel the same way, but my eyelids suddenly jumped twice just now. This feeling is really very subtle, because I have never felt it before."
Ao Guanhai frowned and said: "I just said that this martial arts module must be postponed until later. Anyway, just put it out before the final module starts. As a result, a group of people are here in a hurry, and they have to put this A time bomb has been released, who knows how many traps our dear eldest lady has placed here and how many holes she has dug for us."
"Then we have to jump down, because if we don't complete this martial arts module, then our next plan will not be able to continue, and I think this is the most appropriate time to carry out the martial arts module, because now The Cthulhu Run Game Hall has the largest number of players, so many things can be diluted by these players. By then, players like Liu Xing and others will not get too many benefits, and at most they can only It’s just a guaranteed reward for the eldest lady to hack them.”
The Black Pharaoh looked at the clouds under his feet and continued: "So if you are really worried, then open your eyes at this time and take a look. But you still have to think about it. In this module, we only have An opportunity to observe the status of the module, and my opportunity has been used before, but the other brothers and sisters seem not to cooperate with us, even Wang and the Swollen Daughter, who had a good relationship with us before, And the Night Demon who is said to be our brother and friend."
"Yes, we only have one chance left now, and it is still in the early stages of the module. We are wasting the opportunity by using the Sky Eye at this time, because there are still too few things we can see! So we only have You can put aside your curiosity and wait until the later stages of the module to open your eyes again.”
Ao Guanhai shook his head helplessly and said: "That's it, let's just drink and brag here honestly and wait for the module's time to pass ten months later. But we have to pay attention to the movements of the people around us. If they If we want to open our eyes, then we have to go and take a look."
"I hope Liu Xing won't cause any trouble for us during this period of time."
One day in heaven and one year on earth.
While Ao Guanhai and Black Pharaoh were chatting in the sky, the carriage team of Liu Xing and others had returned to Boyang City.
According to the previous agreement, Yu Lei got off the car first to investigate the situation in Boyang City, while Liu Xing and others continued on their way to Tianshui Town, but before leaving, Yu Lei gave Liu Xing a small bag with a Several heavy pieces of gold.
But, Liu Xing felt a little headache when he saw the gold, because although the gold is very precious and valuable, the problem is that the gold is too valuable, so in ancient times, gold and even silver were not very involved. In normal transactions in the market, unless it is a large transaction, money will be taken out when the money is paid first hand.
As for gold, it is usually used as ballast stone for reserves, kept in well-protected vaults to eat ashes, or directly melted and made into various handicrafts.
All in all, the "paying with money" seen in some TV dramas is not historically accurate, especially when eating a bowl of noodles with a piece of silver on the table, which is simply a bigger injustice than being taken advantage of. . . After all, according to the current exchange ratio, a piece of broken silver the size of a fingernail costs more than ten yuan, and mining and smelting in ancient times were relatively difficult. Add in inflation and other factors, such a piece of broken silver would cost roughly as much as today. It costs about one hundred yuan, so this is equivalent to eating a bowl of small noodles or hot dry noodles that cost five yuan, and then throwing away a hundred yuan bill.
And if it's gold, it's probably equal to a hundred hundred-dollar bills. How can the noodle shop owner give you change?
Well, this reminds Liu Xing that when he was working on the castle module many years ago, he just took a hundred pounds to pay for breakfast without thinking about it. I guess the NPCs who saw this scene at the time would feel that they People are stupid and have too much money.
But there was nothing we could do about it. At that time, Liu Xing also participated in the official module of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall for the first time, so he didn’t know much about some things, so he thought that the character cards were all for one-time use, so the characters The money on the card can be used as desired, so Liu Xing adhered to the mentality of "don't use this money in vain" and took out one hundred pounds from his pocket without hesitation.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing looked at the gold in his hand again, and felt that he could repeat the operation of the year. When he returned to Heshan County, he bought a bag of steamed buns, and then took out a piece of gold and asked the other party to change it. You can enjoy the envy of others.
After all, Liu Xing is still a little moved. After all, wealth does not return to its hometown, just like walking at night in brocade clothes.
After gathering their mood, the carriage team headed towards Sweetwater Town.
That's right, Liu Xing finally suppressed his desire to show off, and planned to go back to Tianshui Town to see the situation of the alliance, and then go to Heshan County to meet his "parents" the next day! Because "Liu Peng" is now the third prince's subordinate, he has been able to recruit Liu Nan and two people to live in Tianshui Town.
One thing to say is that the alliance is indeed in need of a qualified doctor now. Because the temperature has been getting higher and higher recently, it is inevitable that some players or NPCs will suffer from heat stroke in the future, so we must prepare early now.
Soon, Liu Xing and others returned to Tianshui Town. Because Yu Lei had made arrangements before, Liu Xing and others boarded the passenger ship that had been prepared long after leaving Boyang City and returned directly by water. Arrive at Sweetwater Town.
So when Yin En was taking a bath by the river, he was also surprised when he saw Liu Xing, because he didn't expect Liu Xing to come back so early and take the waterway.
The most important thing is that when Liu Xing went there, there were four people, but when he came back, there were more than ten people, and the three people who went with him were gone.
"Leader, why did you come back so soon? Isn't it logical that it will take several days before you can come back? Even if you take the water route, you can save some time, but it won't be that much faster, right?"
Yin En said in surprise: "So you didn't turn back halfway, right? Didn't the third prince see you?"
Liu Xing smiled and shook his head, got off the boat and said: "Everything went well. We met the third prince as soon as we arrived... the butler, yes, I did not meet the third prince this time, but I met the steward who can fully represent Manager He of the Third Prince, in short, our alliance has been recognized by the Third Prince, and now we can open for business openly, so Yin En, go and call Shopkeeper Meng and the others. I want to tell them something now. "
Yin En nodded and ran directly into the alliance station. Fortunately, this guy wore a pair of pants when taking a shower, otherwise the alliance station would be in a state of chaos.
As for Liu Xing, he first found someone to arrange rooms for several of the Third Prince's subordinates who were accompanying him, or the soldiers, because although they are not wearing armor or sharp weapons now, according to Yu Lei's statement, these few All the soldiers are elite guards of the Third Prince. Even Yu Lei is no match for them if they are fully armed.
Of course, this is all because Yu Lei's attacks are difficult to penetrate armor.
All in all, these soldiers are the guards and coachmen arranged by Manager He for Liu Xing. This means that Liu Xing can take these soldiers with him if he wants to travel far away, and he does not need to worry too much about his own safety.
But then again, the alliance station has also changed drastically after just a few days. Many buildings have been built and are just barely decorated. However, this original ecological building also has its own unique beauty. In short, the current alliance station finally looks good. It doesn't look like a construction site anymore.
Most importantly, the Juyi Hall, the most important building in the alliance station, has also been completed.
As for why it is called Juyi Hall, Liu Xing guesses that he has watched too much "Water Margin", but this is normal. After all, people of Liu Xing's generation have grown up watching the TV series of the four famous classics, except of course "Dream of Red Mansions" , because I really couldn’t see it at the time. . .
But in a sense, Liu Xing and other players and Juyi Hall can be considered a good match.
When Liu Xing walked into the Juyi Hall, Yin En and others were already seated. Of course, the middle seat was reserved for Liu Xing.
Liu Xing didn't show off, and after sitting down, he recounted everything that had happened in the past few days, except for Ge Jing's matter.
After all, it's still unclear what is going on with Ge Jing, so Liu Xing doesn't dare to say anything casually.
"It seems that the third prince has received reliable information, so he has already started to make preparations. Of course, the reason why Manager He believed what you said without saying a few words, the leader, is because they have already figured it out."
Baihecheng touched his chin and said: "Let's put it this way, even if we are talking nonsense and fishing for fame, it doesn't matter to the third prince, because our appearance is similar to some prophecies in history. It can be It is used to prove that the third prince is appointed by heaven, so that he will inherit the throne is the most correct answer."
"In short, this is a good thing for us, so that we can start doing things openly."
Liu Xing said with a smile: "The third prince will send us some supplies and rewards later, so we have to seize this time to lay the foundation to avoid being too impressed after next month. Therefore, the flag owners of each flag You have to make plans.”
As soon as Liu Xing mentioned the word "flag leader", everyone present suddenly became energetic, because they all knew that this was the highlight.
"The third prince will not interfere too much in our alliance, so our flag master will be selected according to the previous ideas."
Liu Xing took a sip of tea, and then said slowly: "Then the question is, so many days are enough for you to choose a few banner leaders? So can you give me a list now?"
"Huo Zijun, Zheng Fei, Yang Yu, and Jin Neo have been decided. As for the remaining two flag leaders, there is still some controversy." Yin En said.
Because Ding Kun has long been recognized as the flag leader, Yin En did not add his name here.
However, when he heard the name "Jin Neo", Liu Xing was a little surprised, because Jin Neo is quite a Buddhist, but he didn't expect that he would become the flag leader quietly. And it seems like no one else has a problem with it.
But it’s normal if you think about it carefully, because although this martial arts module is based on ancient China, the problem is that the players in the Cthulhu Run game lobby come from all over the world, so people like Jinio There are many more foreign players than local players like Liu Xing, so now it is indeed necessary to set up a flag in the alliance to manage foreign players.
Jinnio is very suitable for this position, firstly because he is also among the first batch of players in the alliance, and secondly because the Southern Empire where he is located is a marginal island country, so there is no need to worry too much about him becoming bigger in the future.
"As for the remaining two flag owners, the biggest controversial point is actually in terms of responsibilities, because there are some overlaps in the seven flags we decided on before, so we later re-divided them, but we still let some People feel dissatisfied.”
Meng Fugui stood up and said: "So after we finally thought about it, we simply regarded the flag leader as an honorary title. Specific matters will be assigned manpower and responsible persons according to the specific situation, so that it will not be too rigid."
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows, knowing that the connotation of Meng Fugui's words was nothing more than three words.
It’s a breakup.
This is actually what Liu Xing expected. After all, the players in the alliance are not monolithic and each has different ideas, so it is basically impossible to expect them to truly unite.
Therefore, being able to break up directly now is a good thing in Liu Xing's view, because Liu Xing is the leader of the alliance.
Therefore, Liu Xing could only pretend to be helpless and said: "Well, that's the only way it can be, then who are the candidates for the remaining two flag leaders?"
"In addition to Lao Bai and I, there is currently Goudan who is in charge of running the inn in Boyang City, and..."
Yin En reported more than ten names at once.
I feel a little uncomfortable with a cold. I will take a rest tomorrow and get an infusion.
