Chapter 263: Holy Land
The name of the shop is "Duan's Restaurant", and its owner is Duan Hao, but the financial backer behind it must be Mr. Qin. Not only did they decorate "Duan's Restaurant" exactly the same as "Chaowei Feng Restaurant", but even the dishes were 80% similar.
But the damn thing is that the prices of their dishes are a full one-third cheaper than those at Chao Weifeng Restaurant. What's even more frightening is that the raw materials they use are not inferior products, but real materials.
This conspiracy of "hurting others with one's own strength" caught Westbrook off guard. He also thought about starting a price war with his opponent, but after thinking about it carefully, he gave up this ridiculous idea.
Under such circumstances, "Chaowei Feng Restaurant" could only sell a few special dishes, and the store could no longer make ends meet.
Since I can't find a way for now, let's put it aside for now.
Westbrook walked into his game room, put on his gaming equipment, and prepared to vent his depression in the game.
After entering the game, he appears in a private residence.
This is Harbor City, but it is still far, far away from the central area of Harbor City. This distance not only refers to the road, but more importantly, the identity.
Shopkeepers in the game world are divided into four levels: new shopkeepers, senior shopkeepers, elite shopkeepers, and super shopkeepers. Each major level is divided into three stars.
Currently, he is only a new one-star shopkeeper, belonging to the lowest level. The area under the jurisdiction of such a low-level shopkeeper is naturally a very remote place.
"Haiping Township" is the name of his current township. It is not prosperous and there are not many permanent residents. But even in such a remote area, competition is everywhere.
Here, the Qian family has jurisdiction over two streets. The family has arranged for two new shopkeepers to be stationed here, one is Westbrook and the other is Lin Shao.
Other neighborhoods are under the jurisdiction of other families, such as the Liu family, the Jin family, etc., and these families also have new shopkeepers stationed here.
There is an old saying: "A shopping mall is a battlefield without smoke." All player bosses have only one thought in their minds: how to become stronger and bigger, and how to kill other people.
The laws of the game world do not have so many rules and regulations to protect the weak, so players' behavior is greatly released.
Westbrook decided to vent his anger on a "poor ghost".
...
As time went by, the holy land became closer and closer, from the distant sky to the reality in front of him, and finally a huge monster appeared in front of him.
The Holy Land consists of four large areas.
1. Sacred Deer Forest
The Sacred Deer Forest is a fantasy ancient forest, where birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. It is beautiful and inhabited by a variety of pure beasts that are not infected by evil spirits and evil spirits.
There are continuous peaks in the forest. These peaks are different in distance and height. The scenery seen from different mountaintops is also different. It can be said that it truly confirms the ancient poem "Looking across the mountain is a ridge and the side is a peak, and the height is different from the distance."
There is a legendary beast living in the forest: the elk. It is the exclusive mount of the Holy Land Saint. It is said that it can only be found in this place in the entire Kyushu continent.
Several times rarer than the elk, it is a mythical beast called the Colorful Sacred Deer, which is also the origin of the name "Sacred Deer Forest".
According to legend, if someone can see the colorful sacred deer with his own eyes, he will be favored and blessed by the goddess of luck, and he will become one of the lucky ones.
2. Xingming Pavilion
Xingming Pavilion, as the name suggests, is a place for astrology and fortune-telling, because there is a group of mysterious and lovely astrologers here.
Astrologers are a special branch of diviners who are good at using the stars in the sky to divine fortunes for warriors.
The calculated results vary from person to person.
Sometimes it’s hard to laugh or cry;
sometimes ambiguous;
Sometimes it's incredibly accurate.
If players have any difficult and complicated diseases that they cannot figure out, they can come here for divination. They may be able to find the answers they need from the divination results.
3. Shengyun Mountains
Saint refers to a saint-level strong person; luck refers to luck and luck.
It is rumored that in this super large mountain range, there are Zun-level powerhouses and Saint-level powerhouses practicing in seclusion. They are the most powerful support and foundation of the royal family.
If a certain warrior can be accepted as a disciple by these powerful men, he will definitely be able to soar into the sky and achieve great things.
...
4. A city where people can live and work in peace and contentment
Anju Leye City is the main residential place in the Holy Land. It is composed of 1 main city and 4 auxiliary cities. Among them, the main city is populated by internal personnel of the Holy Land;
The four auxiliary cities correspond to the four major life skill occupations of weapons, food, armor, and medicine, as well as other life skill occupations derived from them.
...
Generally speaking, the Holy Land is very friendly to daily life players, and has special channels for education and training. However, if combat players want to enter the Holy Land, they need to go through a test, because the Holy Land adopts a "merit-based admissions" approach.
Take Zhenzhen for example, she can only be regarded as a life player, and the exercises she practices are only auxiliary exercises.
Feng came to the Holy Land this time not because he wanted to join the Holy Land, because he had long known the harsh conditions for joining the Holy Land and had to give up many identities. And he now carries too many identities, such as the head of Wufeng Village, the owner of Tianxialou, the killer, etc., and he cannot let go of these.
He came to the Holy Land this time for three purposes:
Objective One: Lucky Corridor
Legend has it that there is a magical corridor on the Shengyun Mountains called the Lucky Corridor. When a warrior passes through the corridor, he will be observed by the powerful men in retreat in the mountains. If he is lucky enough to be selected by these powerful men, he is likely to be accepted as a personal disciple and teach the supreme technique.
Before he reached his destination, he saw a dense and bustling crowd. At this sight, he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: "It seems there are quite a few people who want to be the lucky ones!"
Then, he walked onto this lucky corridor with confidence. According to his potential, his strength, and his opportunities, he had imagined in his heart that he would definitely be accepted as a disciple by many strong men. ,Then.......
Walking on the smoky mountain road and watching the warriors coming and going, he felt like he was visiting a scenic spot. One moment it was the beautiful Jiuzhaigou Valley, the other moment it was the magical Zhangjiajie, and the next moment it was the steep cliffs. The Tarzan......
"Imagination is always beautiful, reality is always cruel." He spent several hours lingering in the Lucky Corridor, but did not receive any message from the strong man, and he felt a little disappointed. But fortunately, the scenery here is really good, and the journey is not in vain.
Objective 2: Xingming Pavilion
Now that I have come to the Holy Land, of course I have to pay a visit to the famous Xingming Pavilion to get a divination for myself. The architectural style of Xingming Pavilion is obviously Western architecture. The main building is nearly 100 meters high, showing its majesty and solemnity.
With questions in his heart, he stepped into the gate of Xingming Pavilion.
The moment he stepped into the gate of Xingming Pavilion, the game character suddenly half-knelt on the ground involuntarily. He had never encountered such a ridiculous situation before, as if the game character was suppressed by some mysterious force.
Fortunately, this suppressive power came and went quickly, and he quickly regained control of the game character's body.
"Wow, this is so pious. I knelt down as soon as I entered the door."
"Haha, it must be for show."
"I guess it's the anchor who's here to make fun of me again?"
...
The sound of whispers nearby reached his ears. At this situation, he could only smile to cover up his embarrassment, then quickly stood up and quickly blended into the crowd.
The method of divination here is very simple, just write down your doubts on an empty sign, and then place the written sign on the divination table.
Then there is waiting, waiting, waiting for the divination answer given by the astrologer.
He wrote his question on an empty sign: How can I return to the imperial city?
After the empty sign was issued, he left Xingming Pavilion without staying. Because the rule of Xingming Pavilion is to ask questions at least once every three days, and no more than three times a month, there is no point in continuing to stay.
Just at this time, he received a message from Zhenzhen.
Zhenzhen: "Where is he?"
Feng: "Xingming Pavilion."
Zhenzhen: "Come to Sacred Heart Lake quickly."
Feng: "Okay, right away."
Sacred Heart Lake is a large lake located next to Anju Leye City. Although its area is not as large as Half Moon Bay, it has a unique royal style. The golden light shines on the lake, and the scene is like a golden moon falling on the lake, which is indescribably beautiful.
Soon, there was a man and woman walking by the Sacred Heart Lake.
Zhenzhen: "How is it? Isn't it beautiful here?"
Feng: "Beautiful, beautiful like a painting."
Zhenzhen: "How does it compare to Half Moon Bay?"
Feng: "Each has its own merits."
Zhenzhen: "What a perfunctory answer."
Feng: "Mainly, that night at Half Moon Bay, I just looked at you."
Zhenzhen: "Slick, by the way, what did you ask in Xingming Pavilion just now?"
Feng: "I asked, how can I return to the imperial city?"
Zhenzhen: "Do you want to go back to the imperial city?"
Feng told Zhenzhen about his agreement with Xiaotian. Now that he has successfully practiced the second level of the Blood Sword Sutra, according to the sect's regulations, he can recruit apprentices. But now I haven't found my way back.
Zhenzhen: “What’s the answer you got?”
Feng: "The king returns."
Not long after meeting Zhenzhen, he received a message from Xingming Pavilion. The message contained these four words.
Zhenzhen muttered silently: "The king is going back, the king is going back?"
Feng guessed: "You may need to cultivate to a fifth-grade king before you can go back."
Zhenzhen: "Xiaotian will understand you."
Feng: "I have no choice but to take it one step at a time."
Zhenzhen: "What are your plans next?"
Feng: "I want to find the headquarters of the Blood Knife Sect and practice the subsequent moves of the Blood Knife Sutra."
Zhenzhen: “That’s a good idea.”
Feng: "What a coincidence, I feel the same way."
After talking, the two looked at each other in the game across the Internet.
