Chapter 1981 Crystal Lion
"When falsehood is true, it is also false, and there is no place for nothing."
Liu Xing touched his chin and said in a slight way: "So is there such a possibility that this brother-in-law is actually a smoke bomb, so that you all look at him?"
"I also thought about this possibility, because the brother-in-law's brother-in-law has no special performance except for occasionally looking at him, so we can't rule out the possibility that this is acting. After all, there are occasions that will not be allowed to attend because he is not qualified enough; and if these two people are fake relatives and are really superiors and subordinates, then they are unlikely to have such obvious acting mistakes? Take us players for example. I can act well with the Alliance star because we have been working together for several years, but if we want to act with Manager Meng, I may have to choose to refuse, because it is too easy to make mistakes."
"Yes, this mysterious organization should have heard of those rumors, so since they dare to sneak into Boyang City and wait for an opportunity to act, the people they choose should cooperate and understand well, and it is unlikely that such an obvious mistake will occur. Therefore, it is possible that it is true, false, true, or just go to true and true!"
Meng Fugui said seriously: "It is possible that the mysterious organization will prepare to have a double-stop service this time, so that the wealthy businessman and his brother-in-law will be responsible for the operation as dual cores. In order to save at least one of them after the incident, they have done this trick without distinguishing between true and false, so that the enemy will only focus on one person, so that the other person can have more time and space to do things, and then find a space to escape from Boyang City."
"Ah, I feel my CPU is going to burn..."
Kinho scratched his head and said, "So the problem is that there is too little information now, so we cannot determine what configuration the mysterious organization has prepared for this operation. Moreover, there are too few people available in Boyang City. After all, most people have to stay in the sect for 24 hours, and then some people have to stay in the teahouse to coordinate the overall situation, so there are not many people who can act freely outside. There is another problem, that is, the identities of our players are relatively ordinary, so there is no chance to enter certain areas, and these areas are where wealthy businessmen and brother-in-law often move, so we cannot obtain relevant information."
Liu Xing looked at Jin Nio with some surprise, because Liu Xing really didn't expect Jin Nio to stay in Tianshui Town silently, but he still knew so much about what happened in Boyang City. The most important thing is that he seemed to have not been to Boyang City yet.
Thinking of this, Liu Xing nodded and said, "That's right, our players' identities are indeed relatively ordinary, or they are not up or down, so this is not a good thing for us, because we are also very ordinary when we can contact NPCs. Whether we want to contact up or down, it will be more troublesome, but in this martial arts module, there will definitely be more important people, whether they are up or down, than in the middle."
Liu Xing's words made everyone nod, because in the martial arts novels they have read, whether it is the protagonist or an important supporting role, either the descendant of a young master or an important member of a sect, or a helpless little beggar, or an orphan whose family is destroyed, there are basically few ordinary people.
After a while, Liu Xing sighed and said, "Kinho is right. We really can't live in our own small circle, because we were not very comfortable with the life of ancient times. As a result, we are still separated from the NPCs. It is indeed quite comfortable to live like this, just like a vacation in an original farmhouse. But over time, if we have to live with NPCs, there may be many problems, so we have to adapt to the pace of NPCs' life as soon as possible! Therefore, we have no other opinions, so we will tear down the original wooden wall and allow players to live in other places."
Liu Xing nodded and said, "So you started moving early in the morning, right? Now you have no meals. If you don't have them, eat a little first and then arrange a place for you to live in."
So after a brief discussion, Liu Xing and others moved the canteen to a location close to the river, which was called convenient water use. In fact, they wanted to keep these NPCs away from the players so that they would not be able to swim around if nearby players accidentally.
"It's time to eat!"
In this way, even if Lin Hu rounded up, he was the number one master in Tianshui Town, the kind of direct descendant.
Liu Xing looked at Zhang Jingxu decisively, "Old Zhang, when you return to Boyang City, you will take a few people with you and bring some money with you! Now what our alliance lacks the most is money, because tomorrow the reward of the third prince will be delivered to Tianshui Town. At that time, Lao Zhang, you will go and choose a few gold, silver and jewelry that can be used, and then we will give you some activity funds after the inventory."
Before Zhang Jingxu could speak, the greeting of grandpa "Liu Peng" came not far away.
"Then let's eat a little, but you have to take care of tea and so on. After walking all the way, my kettle is empty."
As for Yoon Eun's fiancée and his family also came to Tianshui Town, so the marriage will be much more convenient in two days and there is no need to run so far to pick up the bride.
"Yu Lei is back today. He mentioned that many disciples of the sects in Yuanxicheng chose to take leave and go home, which is likely to include Lin Hu. So is there such a possibility now that Lin Hu will pass by that letter?" Liu Xing said with some concern.
As the only designated chef in the cafeteria, the only NPCs that can move freely in the league camp are "Liu Peng"'s grandfather and several chefs under him. As for the original runners, they have been replaced by players.
"Do we want to tear the exterior walls of the Alliance Camp first and let Tianshui Town integrate it?"
This time Yin En brought fellow villagers from Junxiang to Tianshui Town, including Liu Xing's longing for Lin Laosi.
However, the original camp of the league was just a little bigger, so this not-so-loud greeting could still be heard by players.
Liu Xing took the crystal lion and looked at it carefully and found that the crystal lion's carving work was pretty good, at least there were all the details. Although the mane was not clear, it could also show a feeling of "floating in the wind".
As a result, Zhang Jingxu poured cold water on Liu Xing as soon as possible and said, "It's OK, but you have to add more money and add people! Because the problem now is that I and many other players have to stay in the sect, and my circle of friends has basically been fixed. Even if I can go out, I just go around nearby, so we have to send some players to Boyang City! As for Yuanxicheng, let's forget it. There should be not many plots worth mentioning there. It's enough to have Yang Yu and the others in charge; then you have to add more money! Because if I remember correctly, the account books in the teahouse seem to be ineffective. After all, the players in Boyang City point to the teahouse to provide activity funds."
Of course, there should be many ordinary people among the roles such as disciple A and passerby B.
At this time, Ginho said, "I think we should have more contact with NPCs instead of living across a wall like now. Although this is much more convenient for us players and we don't need to worry about being super-swimming at any time, it will also make us in a comfortable zone and slowly lose the ability to communicate with NPCs. This is not a good thing! Because the background of the module set this time was in ancient times rather than modern times. If it was just ordinary daily communication, it would be easy to say, but if it was put on the intensity, it would be troublesome. At that time, it would be stumble or accidentally said the wrong thing, it would be troublesome."
Yin Eun handed the crystal lion to Liu Xing and said seriously: "You should also know that the crystal is hard and fragile, so if you use the carving tools of these days, even if you carefully carve it, it will be easy to scrap the entire crystal. Even if everything goes well, the workload of this crystal lion is not low. It may not be possible to complete it in a few years."
"Uh, this is normal, too."
So, after lunch, Liu Xing and others went to tear down the wooden walls they built at the beginning, and the wood they removed was not wasted, so they directly built a fence for Juyi Hall.
"The people from Junxiang have come here, and they have brought all the things they should bring."
In Liu Xing's impression, in addition to some conventional money and cloth, the third prince's reward should also include some gold, silver and jewelry ornaments, so it would be better to use these things to give gifts to NPCs.
Then Yoon Eun came back too.
As the former shopkeeper of the teahouse, Meng Fugui said, "The teahouse account book is not much money. After all, we had just opened, and you came here. The teahouse basically had not done normal business for a few days, and they also paid a lot of money in other places. For example, the weapons and equipment needed by the hunting team at that time were all the money from the teahouse. Later, when I left Boyang City, the teahouse account book might have only a little bit of silver, but there were still a lot of tea coal and other things, which should be enough for a period of business... But, the weather has been getting hot these two days, and the teahouse business may not be too good. In addition, we can't charge players who come to the teahouse to do business, so there is no money after going around."
As for the bottle that stores the blood of the monster, it was packed in an iron box.
Kinho's words made Liu Xing and others silent because this is indeed a problem, and it may become a big problem.
"Then add more money and add people!"
"So we have to find ways to expand our circle of friends and let us access more NPCs, especially those that seem to have plots! We won't be busy for a long time, and when the important plot begins, we don't have the chance to join it as soon as possible." Liu Xing decided.
"I have no objection, but buildings like Juyi Hall still have to be protected. NPCs cannot be allowed to approach at will, so as not to have problems at any time." Meng Fugui nodded and said.
Because if Lin Laosi was willing to settle in Tianshui Town, his son should also choose to join Tianshui Town. Moreover, Yu Lei has brought back news that many disciples of the sect in Yuanxicheng chose to take leave and go home, so if nothing unexpected happens, Lin Hu will make the same choice because he is also clear about the situation in Junxiang.
"This is a gift given to me by an old man, saying that his father left behind."
Yoon Eun said as he took out a crystal statue from his pocket, as if it was a lion carved.
"Well, that's really possible. If Lin Hu chose to leave at the first time, then he should be on the road now, and the letter has just set off; but when we left Junxiang, we left notes at the entrance of the village and at their respective homes, asking them to come to Tianshui Town to meet their family directly, so as long as nothing unexpected happens, Lin Hu will just walk a few more steps." Yin En shrugged his shoulders and said.
Yoon Eun smiled and said, "And Lin Laosi has also written a letter to Lin Hu, asking him to come to Tianshui Town directly if he wants to go home, so Lin Hu is already our possession."
"That's right, it's less than a day from Yuanxicheng to Junxiang. Even if you walk a few more steps to Tianshui Town, it's only about a day, so he shouldn't have any surprises, unless the iron gun Taoist priest is working today."
This reminds Liu Xing of the famous Warring States Crystal Cup, which has always been nicknamed as being brought back by a time traveler. After all, this crystal cup is similar to a modern water cup, but it is a bit rougher.
However, if you know the craftsmanship level of the Warring States Period, you should know how rare this crystal cup is, because it is difficult to obtain such a suitable size and lean and transparent crystal, because there were few crystal ores that might have been discovered at that time; furthermore, as Yoon said, the crystal has a very hard texture, but it is very fragile, and it will break if you are not careful. Therefore, if you use conventional carving tools to carve the crystal cup, the wall of the cup may break at any time, not to mention how to remove the crystal inside.
So Liu Xing remembers that he heard a saying that even if the Warring States Crystal Cup was achieved overnight, the construction period was at least two years. If those failed works were added, such a crystal cup might take about ten years, and it also requires the cooperation of many skilled craftsmen.
Therefore, the Warring States Crystal Cup is worthy of being the top national treasure!
So the question is, although the difficulty of engraving this crystal lion is not as high as the Warring States Crystal Cup, it is not possible to be made in a few years, so the engraver of this crystal lion should not be simple.
Chapter completed!
