"I don't know, get lost."
Not long after, in the city of Tania, at the gate of Valia's tavern, one of the two guards guarding the tavern expressionlessly pushed a grey-robed magician aside who was in utter embarrassment, and then used Looking at the other person's face with a condescending expression: "Don't continue to cause trouble, otherwise we won't just beat you up, Imperial man."
"Haha, haha, as an imperial citizen, I'm really sorry." Duan Qing rubbed the bruises on his face vigorously, held his head and slowly climbed up from the ground: "Don't say it was to inquire about news, even came in I won't even give you a chance - hey, hey, don't do it! I've already been kicked out, what else do you want?"
"Do I need a reason to beat you?" Another guard in black raised his fist with a grin: "Appearing here is your biggest mistake, just admit it and bow your head."
"Wait a minute, your president Hank and I are good friends!" Duan Qing hurriedly raised his hands and stepped back: "There is also the Fei Si Tavern over there at Fars Fortress. We are also with a few people there. I know the tavern owner very well—ahhhhhh!”
The sound of heartbreaking blows then sounded in the corner of the street, and was accompanied by the miserable scene of the gray-robed magician who had been punched again, rolling and falling to the side of the street. After falling in the ditch for a long time, he pulled his body out of the raging rainwater. At the same time, he vigorously wiped his bruised and swollen face mixed with blood: "Cough, cough, cough, cough... you, You fools, you should at least practice some basic etiquette, right?"
"Etiquette is only for polite people - this is the exact words of our family president." He walked forward with his fists clenched, and two guards in black covered Duan Qing's face on the left and right. Figure: "For you imperial dogs, any politeness is superfluous."
"Okay, okay, I know, I know." Duan Qing pushed his hands and took two steps back to the corner again: "I will get out of this place quickly, you don't need to talk nonsense anymore, that news about the underground world, etc. You don’t need to tell me…”
"What did you say?" As if he heard some words that he shouldn't have heard, one of the big men reached out and grabbed the collar of Duan Qing's robe: "You said the underground world? How did you know that place? I'm warning you. , if you dare to reach out to that world, I will destroy your hands and feet now——"
A subtle sound of breaking through the air was then heard from in front of Duan Qing, accompanied by a feeling of light shrouding the area around the area. The big man in black from Valia noticed something was wrong. Then he hurriedly let go of his palm, and raised a stream of blood like a fountain into the mid-air as he retreated. Slowly putting away the dagger that had just drawn the straight line, the secret language Ninglan who did not know when she appeared in this space then gradually raised her body that was covering the front, and her usual smile was no longer visible to her at this time. The look on her face disappeared, replaced by the bone-chilling murderous intent that belonged to the maid, who had completely let go: "..."
"No, it's okay."
He hurriedly raised his hand to stop the shoulder of the maid who was about to rush forward. Duan Qing, who was covering his cheek, shook his head hastily: "I'm fine, don't do anything. If you make things worse, you'll be unlucky in the end." It’s still the two of us...ah hahaha! It’s okay, it’s okay!”
These last sounds were what he then stood up and said to the two strong men in black in front of him: "This is our servant. He may be a little excited about my beating. Don't worry, you two. If I say leave, I will definitely leave.”
"But sir——"
"It doesn't matter, let's just treat ourselves as passers-by now."
Seeing that the two scrupulous guards in black no longer pursued the figure who was looking for trouble, Duan Qing carefully pulled back the secret language Ninglan who wanted to continue looking for trouble, and then rubbed the scars on his face. , while whispering with his palms attached: "This is not the first time we have hit a wall after coming to Tania. Let's look for opportunities elsewhere. You... By the way, I just sent you to check for clues about Cabin Castle. As a result, how?"
"Connelly is still the person in charge there and did not give up and leave as the legend said." As if to get to the point, the cold tone of the codeword Ninglan brought a bit of calmness: "But Ninglan went to investigate. At that time, the man didn’t seem to be there, he must have gone out.”
"What about that passage?"
"It seems to be blocked."
The cold look on his face showed signs of disappearing, and the code word Ninglan whispered in Duan Qing's ear: "As the players' levels and strength gradually become stronger, Cabin Castle's business seems to be not as good as before. I heard later that Connelly didn’t do much business in that store because of the loss of power.”
"The entrance seems to have been blocked before we left." After saying this, she reached into her arms and carefully smeared the wounds on Duan Qing's face with the wound medicine she always had on hand: "At that time, The Fool Adventure Group has its own channels, so it doesn’t care much about these changes. Who knew that so many things would happen later——”
"The decline of Cabin Castle probably has something to do with the Fool." He grinned and screamed in pain for a while, then Duan Qing, who was standing in the corner of the street, interrupted the other party with a low voice: "They allocate the right to use the furnace. At that time, we didn’t seem to give much consideration to others. As the market demand of players increases, the results of this allocation will eventually show up slowly like a chronic disease.”
"The current situation can be regarded as a backlash against our poor thinking at the beginning." He lowered his head, and then sighed: "Thanks to the withdrawal of this civilian congressman, the three underground giants have Two have gone.”
"The only one left is Maggie's side."
His voice paused for a moment, as if he was remembering something sad: "She has been away from Tanya for so long, she must have lost control of the underground world, not to mention her nightclub. We suffered heavy damage in the Battle of Tania, and there was simply not enough spare power to—"
"Hey, you two."
Excited voices then sounded in the ears of the two people. At the same time, a player carrying a large package appeared at the end of the street and gradually walked out of the darkness. The player seemed to be confirming something. Approaching, the eyes that identified Duan Qing and the two finally became brighter with raised eyebrows: "We meet again!"
"What, are you in any trouble?"
************************************
After passing through countless spiraling downward stairs, and turning through countless dark and different passes, the figures belonging to Duan Qing and Enyu Ninglan then stepped into the underground world of Tania again under the leadership of Feng Chui Mai Lang. On the ground, they wiped the wet hair on their heads at the same time - due to the long-term heavy rain, the rainwater accumulated from above Tania has now become overloaded with the increase in load, among which Some rainwater has also crossed the blockade of the ditch and started to seep into every corner of these underground passages step by step.
Therefore, the process of the three people going to the underground world actually became a process of traveling through the Water Curtain Cave countless times.
"Oh, such heavy rain is really unprecedented."
Once again, he waved away the figure of a man in black who was blocking the way. Feng Chui Mai Lang, who was walking at the front, put away his sweat towel with a low smile: "With Tania's water treatment ability, all the water has been processed." Forced to this point..."
"I thought this place had become Zeguo, but I didn't expect it was just dripping water." Duan Qing, who took out his cloak as a means of covering his face and covered his head with a hood, then replied in a low voice: "This city's underground technology It’s amazing.”
"Don't ask me, I don't know where they changed all the water." Feng Chui Mai Lang, who was walking in front, said with a smile: "Compared to this high-end city, Liberty City is simply a place where country people live. Ah, but—”
"Instead of asking me to guess how the drainage system here is structured, I am more interested in the heavy rain itself." He turned his head, and his excited eyes fell on Duan Qing and Duan Qing. On the body: "This heavy rain has been falling for more than ten days."
"I really don't know how long it will last."
He stopped and seemed to be seriously thinking about the answer to the question that suddenly came to his mind. Then, under the incomprehensible gazes of Duan Qing and Anyu Ninglan behind him, he scratched his head in embarrassment: "Ouch. , don’t look at me like this, I’m just worried that my business will be disrupted. You see, even going back has become a big problem now——"
"I remember you said you had something unfinished before." Duan Qing cleared his throat and asked in a low voice, "Is it done now?"
"Don't be so hasty to drive people away. After all, I haven't brought you to your destination yet."
A crisp sound then sounded in front of the three people. It was the sound made when a flying knife flying from nowhere was blown by the wind and the wheat waves suddenly reached out and slapped it down. He, who was still dressed as a businessman, then also sounded like He flicked his wrist as if nothing had happened, and at the same time smiled and signaled to Duan Qing: "You see, this is the underground world after all, and it is still very dangerous to walk on the road."
"We have heard of this." So Duan Qing had no choice but to cast his helpless eyes on the source of the flying knife: "In this state of the underground world without an owner, the level of lawlessness here is probably even higher. It’s already on the first floor.”
"Fortunately, I am still a bit thin-faced here."
Starting to move forward again, the wind-blown wheat wave walking in front then waved in the direction of the black shadow disappearing into the dark alley: "For my sake, more or less people here will still know how to do it." Give us a break."
"How did you get in with the people here?"
"Of course it's because of business."
Facing the question that Duan Qing then asked, Fengchui Mailang proudly revealed his rolled-up sleeves and strong arms: "As a businessman who aspires to become a businessman, if you don't open up the trade routes in the underground world, How can it be qualified? Not to mention the black shops here, even some scattered underground forces, I have a little bit of reputation... By the way."
"Who did you just say you wanted to find?" He turned around again, looked at Duan Qing and blinked: "When did you know him?"
"This probably happened a long time ago."
After answering the other party's question perfunctorily, this time it was the codeword Ninglan who stood in front of the businessman player with a smile: "As for the person we are looking for, we don't seem to have confirmed his name. We only know that he is An old man who runs a small shop, the kind with a severe hunchback..."
"Ah, I see."
He stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers. A look of realization immediately appeared on Feng Chui Mai Lang's face: "Is he the old hunchback? The one who likes gambling?"
"He does like to gamble on goods." Duan Qing sighed and nodded: "But the goods we gambled out at that time may not be able to be found now."
"Looking at the equipment you two are wearing now, you probably don't need that level of equipment, right?" Feng Chui Mai Lang laughed and shook his head: "But gambling is gambling, and it is a way of betting on luck."
"Because of some mysterious existence in this underground world, the gamblers here may have the most coveted products."
Following each other's footsteps and turning several corners, several people then came to the depths of the intricate passages of the underground world with countless looks between light and dark. More and more familiar scenes appeared again and again in Duan as time went by. Qing's eyes finally stopped at the corner of the two passages as Feng Chui Mai Lang stopped: "After taking so many detours, I thought I was in the wrong place... Hey!"
He kicked open the old iron door in front of him and shouted loudly inside: "Old hunchback! You should still be alive, right?"
"I should have warned you! Call me that name again and I'll smash your head into the dirt!"
Familiar metal pipes, familiar broken counters, and the figure of the hunchbacked old man sitting in the corner. Then, with some rainwater seeping down, he jumped up like a flying turtle: "You--you ——”
"Okay, okay, you can't kill me anyway." He waved his hand nonchalantly, and then Feng Chui Mai Lang squeezed into the room with his huge package: "And it's not me who's here this time. you."
"It's the two of them who are looking for you."
He turned sideways and gradually revealed the figures of Duan Qing and Anyu Ninglan under the bloodshot eyes of the hunchbacked old man. The old man's face, who looked a little crazy, also experienced a huge change from furious to surprised. , and finally shook his body happily like a child: "You, you are... you are the one..."
"good!"
He clapped his hands and his expression became crazy again.
"I finally have someone to choose from!"
