"Are we going to meet up with other players?" Tao Chengxin asked as he followed the girl in the white dress.
In addition to them and the dead Shen Tai, there are also Wang Qiao, Gao Baimei and Tang Yuan.
"Of course not." Sun Jiju said: "Those three people are not honest, especially that Tang Yuan."
"The two players who held him hostage the day before yesterday probably died in his hands."
Of course, Tao Chengxin was not really so kind to bring the others with her. What she was worried about was: "The third task of the dungeon is to find things. The three of us are a bit small."
"There were other unshowed players following us yesterday." She looked at Xu Huo, "Is that player and Tang Yuan together?"
"You want to know?" Xu Huo asked unclearly.
Tao Chengxin was not sure what he meant, so she hesitated and said, "Actually, I don't really want to know that much."
The girl in the white dress walking in front smiled and said, "If you want to know, it's very simple. Yesterday, three groups of people came to see me. The first was a man and woman, the middle was a ruthless man, and the third was polite. , gave me money.”
"Mr. Xu must know these three groups of people. You installed a monitor on my umbrella and you should have heard our conversation."
Tao Chengxin and Sun Jirou looked at Xu Huo at the same time. His expression at this time was completely different from yesterday. They had always felt that something was a little strange before, but they were so nervous that they never realized it. Now that they were reminded by the girl in the white skirt, they realized People here are pretending to be pigs and eating tigers!
Xu Huo did not deny that his goal had been achieved.
"If Wang Qiao and Gao Baimei didn't go to the Jimu Bun Shop, they must have gone to the Xianmei Sausage Shop. As for the person following me, if he were alone, there would be no need to question me and the tour guide."
He looked at the girl in the white dress and said, "You told him about the Bear Claw Restaurant and the Sausage Shop. If Tang Yuan goes there, there is a high probability that the two of them are together."
"You deliberately deceived us yesterday and asked us to check the authenticity of these places!" Sun Jirou immediately thought of his performance yesterday. He deliberately said confidently in front of other players that he had clues, but half-hidden them. The exposure was so fascinating that other players came up with the idea of following him!
Tao Chengxin stared at Xu Huo, "We were all fooled!"
"I didn't expect anyone to be so cooperative beforehand." Xu Huo glanced at the girl in the white skirt with a pointed look. At most, he wanted to get some information from the local people, but his age range was thirty-five. Above, even if the elderly people in the Jimu Fairy Tale City are almost dead, no one can verify it.
It is more convenient for other players to find people on their own initiative than for him to persuade them with words.
Whether anyone finds a clue or not, that's progress.
But he didn't expect that the girl in the white dress would take the initiative to show up.
The girl in the white dress smiled but said nothing.
The few people arrived at their destination quickly in silence.
This is a small courtyard at the corner of the fairy tale city. The girl in the white skirt opened the door and invited them in.
The yard was full of sunflowers. As soon as the four of them stepped in, the two sunflowers that were originally facing the door suddenly turned their backs.
Xu Huo and Sun Jirou didn't take it seriously, but Tao Chengxin was shocked, "Isn't this a prop?"
The girl in the white skirt turned around and said, "I heard this is a specialty of E19 Wormhole Point. It's called Sunflower, which is not too smart. It likes to carry people on its back."
Tao Chengxin said dubiously: "Has the sunflower become a spirit?"
The girl in the white dress laughed, "Human beings will evolve, and so will plants. This kind of sunflower generates a special pollen projection range under special circumstances. Its pollen will surround the sunflower to form a complete cycle. Once someone breaks this cycle, the sunflower will reproject pollen in another direction."
"So that's it." Tao Chengxin said: "I have only seen evolved animals before, but this is the first time I have seen plants."
"Plants are not like animals, they don't change obviously."
The girl in the white dress invited them into the house and said hello to the old man sitting in the rocking chair by the window, "Grandpa Bai, I'm back and I brought a few friends with me."
The old man in the rocking chair seemed a little slow to react. It took him a few seconds to turn his head and said slowly: "Tea."
The girl in the white skirt made tea, pushed the rocking chair next to the sofa, poured a cup for each person, and then raised the cup to feed the old man to drink.
The old man's hands were shaking so badly that he couldn't hold the cup at all. He held the girl's hand and drank two sips of tea, then smiled at her and said, "Drink."
The girl in the white dress wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.
Xu Huo and the others did not touch the tea cups, and the girl in the white skirt didn't care. She held the tea cup and said to the old man: "Grandpa Bai, they want to know what happened twenty years ago."
The old man's expression suddenly changed and he immediately asked: "Are they players?"
After the girl in the white skirt nodded, he seemed a little excited and tried to sit up from the rocking chair, but before his back straightened, he fell back. In the end, he could only hold on to the armrest and gasp, "Okay, okay, as long as you are players, We must spread the truth about Fairytale City."
Sun Jirou and Tao Chengxin looked at each other and said, "Old man, please tell me about what happened twenty years ago."
The old man's cloudy eyes flashed brightly, and he said: "There used to be players in the fairy tale city, but unfortunately they were all killed by the people from the government office."
"Twenty years ago, not long after Fairy Tale City entered the game, the government department deceived many players into LT Biopharmaceutical Company with lies about cultivating players, and conducted experiments on players. In less than two years, they developed a drug that can A potion that allows ordinary people to evolve quickly."
"When evolvers first start using this medicine, their physical strength and intelligence will increase very quickly. As time goes by, symptoms of xenosis will appear."
"But LT only told the players that this was a side effect of the medicine. As long as they take the antidote they developed, the symptoms can be relieved."
"Players are not all fools. After entering the dungeon, some people discovered the truth and united with other players to resist lt. However, they unexpectedly framed them as cannibals and injected them with a large amount of evolution potions, allowing them to survive in a short period of time. Becoming a human being and a ghost.”
"Some players were deceived into helping LT hunt down the alienated players. Players who knew the truth died and those who were caught were caught. Those greedy people wanted more players to get useful props and weapons from the dungeon. , actually put the potion into the drinking water system of Fairy Tale City."
"In just three months, half of the tens of millions of people slowly turned into alien species." Tears flowed from the old man's eyes. "In that month, the fairy tale city almost turned into a dead city. Except for the alien species, There is no living person to be seen outside, there are rotten corpses and blood everywhere, and those who were once compatriots are wandering in the streets in groups, eating the remaining corpses when they are hungry..."
