When the text prompt appeared, the third child continued: "I personally saw the housekeeper leaving Kanyu House and heading towards Wubian City. I guess it has something to do with Luwei's murder this morning."
Chen Xinshui did not respond.
He turned to look at Zuo Chang, his face full of confusion.
It was also Zuo Chang's first time to come to this dungeon, so he naturally didn't understand the situation at hand.
He could only look at his nose with his eyes, and his mind with his nose, and act like he was in control.
Chen Xinshui glanced at the mission message:
[Lie down the fuel and taste the courage for today: talk to Lao San and go to the Guanshan Road tea stall. 】
With the third child...
dialogue?
Such tasks are extremely common in dungeons, but the "NPC" at this moment is someone he is familiar with, which makes it a little awkward.
Chen Xinshui coughed and asked: "Hey... Third child, do you have any countermeasures?"
The third child grinned and looked cold: "Brother Duan, how long have we been waiting for today? Now is the time! The housekeeper will go out soon. I can send you to a tea stall on Guanshan Road. There may be an assassination attempt there. His chance!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his sleeves, and a portal suddenly appeared in front of him.
Chen Xinshui was shocked!
Just a portal or something, this is an advanced magical power that only adventurers in the fifteenth realm can master!
Why is this third child...
The third child looked at him and said, "Brother Duan, hurry up!"
"...Brother Bei, let's go!"
Chen Xinshui gritted his teeth, called Zuo Chang, and immediately entered the portal.
Zuo Chang followed suit, feeling a slight sense of weightlessness. When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was on a mountain road.
Looking in front of me, I saw a luxurious mansion that could be called a palace. It should be the "Kanyu House", the ancestral home of the Aloe family;
Looking behind you, you can see the foggy edge city.
There is a tea stall next to me, straddling the two places. It cannot be called luxurious, it is just a convenient resting point.
"Ah yo yo, boy from the Chen family, you are finally here? Come here quickly, everything is ready!"
A beautiful lady walked out of the tea stall and looked at Chen Xinshui with a smile.
She looked at Zuo Chang with her eyebrows moving: "Who is this little brother? Is this your new friend?"
"This is Wild Beethoven, Brother Bei, and this is Sun Erniang."
Chen Xinshui gave a brief introduction.
Sun Erniang...
Zuo Chang became alert. He even stretched his neck to see if there was a slaughterhouse behind the tea stall.
Sun Erniang didn't pay attention to Zuo Chang. She looked solemn and said: "Reliable information, the housekeeper has left Kanyu House and took this Guanshan Road towards Wubian City. I estimate that in another quarter of an hour at most, he will He will arrive at my tea stall... If he can come over and have a bowl of tea, I will poison him and make him never come back!"
Zuo Chang stood aside and listened quietly.
Chen Xinshui just felt something was wrong: "What kind of person is the housekeeper, how can he drink your tea? I even find your tea bland! Besides, with all your tricks, I'm afraid you won't be able to seduce the housekeeper. Weng."
Sun Erniang chuckled: "It is indeed difficult to stun him, but it is not difficult at all to poison him. I have a family secret medicine, which can kill the strong men in the twelve realms! The only problem now is... something happened suddenly , my poison is missing two ingredients, if you can bring me the red grass that grows on the mountains and the gallbladder of the python in the forest, I will be 100% sure to poison the housekeeper!"
[Complete key nodes. 】
[Task progress update. 】
Here it comes, here it comes again.
Zuo Chang concentrated his attention and looked at the mission details:
[Get the snake gallbladder: Please get the snake gallbladder from the python in the forest within a quarter of an hour. 】
[Bravely picking fairy grass: Please pick the red grass on the cliff within a quarter of an hour. 】
At the same time as the task appeared, two coordinates appeared in the minds of Zuo Chang and Chen Xinshui.
Sun Erniang crossed her arms and said, "That's the thing. As long as you get something, I will find a way to make the housekeeper drink the poisonous tea."
After saying that, she spread her hands and actually called out two portals at her side, obviously leading to the mission location.
Chen Xinshui was a little uneasy and asked: "Sun Erniang, are you serious?"
Sun Erniang looked at him and answered the question: "Time waits for no one, go quickly."
"..."
Well, it turned out to be an NPC.
Chen Xinshui turned around: "Brother Bei, look..."
Zuo Chang waved his hand: "Without further delay, let's set off immediately! Which one are you sure about, the giant python or the red grass in the forest?"
Chen Xinshui thinks he can do it.
The python in the forest didn't know what its strength was, but Chen, after all, was an adventurer in the Twelve Realms and was extremely confident in his own strength; as for climbing the cliff, it was no problem.
He was a chivalrous man and immediately chose a dangerous one: "I'll leave the red grass to you!"
With a vigilant look on his face, he entered the forest portal.
Zuo Chang passed through the portal again, and the surrounding environment changed drastically. He was already in a snowy field. He looked up and saw a mirror-like cliff in front of him.
The cliff was a thousand meters high. Zuo Chang felt his neck hurt when he looked up, and then he saw a red light flashing on the top, which should be red grass.
Countdown, moving.
Zuo Chang stretched out his hand to touch the rock wall and found that the rock wall was extremely smooth. His hand felt as smooth as touching the back of Mayumi's hand.
He gathered his magic power and tried to climb——
As soon as the soles of his shoes touched the rock wall, Zuo Chang stumbled and fell into the thick snow!
This time, it was really unexpected.
Zuo Chang has the cultivation level of the Twelve Realms. Even without using any skills or using any external objects, he can temporarily levitate in the air with his own power. As for running along the wall, even Jackie Chan can do it, can't he still not be able to do it?
"There's something wrong with this rock wall. It's no longer a matter of whether it's smooth or not. It's repelling anyone from climbing."
Zuo Chang turned his head and looked around.
There is no other way out, and the fog is so thick that it won't dissipate even if you get closer.
If you forcefully rush into the fog, you will come out from the other direction and return to the original place.
There is only one way in this "scene", and that is to climb along the rock wall, no tricks are allowed.
But--
How to do?
"This copy seems to be very difficult."
Zuo Chang frowned, feeling an ominous premonition in his heart.
"There are strong obstacles in my mission, so Chen Xinshui's side... will it be equally difficult?"
at the same time.
in reality.
The projection on the wall was divided into two parts. Mayumi looked at Zuo Chang, then at Chen Xinshui, and said, "Lord God, why do I feel...that the mission is going to fail?"
The god checked the backstage and said: "I suffered a loss because I was not prepared. This time weaving destiny is very difficult. The Red Grass side needs to get the 'Wind Control Pearl' first, and the big python in the forest needs to achieve it." Realgar Sword'... Zuo Chang and Chen Xinshui are not prepared, so I'm afraid they will suffer."
Mayumi frowned: "I'm going to support you now."
"It may be too late."
God is very calm.
She looked at Chen Xinshui with her big eyes and said: "If it was the big python in the forest that Zuo Chang went to, with his power, he could kill the python even without the realgar sword. But now... this time the weaving of fate may have to it's over."
Fankou asked: "Senior Brother Duanshui Shui...is he going to die?"
"If you don't retreat, you will die."
The god calmly pronounced his verdict.
