Chapter 216: Ancient games

Views:

Whether it is the underground city or the sky city, there is no moon in the two places. The underground city is indeed in a state of darkness all the time. Even if there is light, it is a variety of artificial light sources. come out.

And Sky City doesn't even have a dark night, let alone a delusional moon.

In fact, there is no sun here. Although it is in the state of perpetual day, the light of perpetual day here comes from the eternal light belt outside. , but it can already make Ronggui feel that the light outside is very dazzling.

However, at this moment, hanging above the black sky outside...is a crescent moon.

After staring at the moon for a while, Ronggui looked down and saw something very familiar and unfamiliar...

Misty rain pavilion? Small bridge running water? A classical pavilion with a slightly raised roof? !

Ronggui: This is...

"Xiaomei! Xiaomei! This is my hometown! It's the moon of my hometown! The building of my hometown!!!" Unable to hide his excitement, Ronggui immediately looked at Xiaomei behind him.

Through the moonlight, he also saw Xiaomei's current appearance:

I don't know what Xiaomei thinks, her appearance has not changed at all, and the color of her eyes has not changed, but her hair color has changed, becoming the same black as him.

"Xiaomei, your hair..." Ronggui was stunned again.

Xiaomei tilted her head slightly, her jet-black hair swayed like water, and she didn't say a word.

This is... shy

Ronggui blinked and did not continue to ask.

Look again at the game name Xiaomei is using now: "Xiaomei".

Pfft—Xiaomei and Agui, there is almost no change~

Look back at the place where they just climbed out: uh... It's an inn, with an antique style, and the words "inn" are written on the door plaque.

The inn is very dilapidated, the doors and windows are closed, and there is no light inside, no wonder I couldn't see anything inside before.

"What the hell is this place?" Not long after they came out, another person emerged from the inn. It was a boy with silver-white hair, wearing shorts and shorts as uncharacteristic as them. It seems that this is a novice outfit. .

That boy should be a player.

Ronggui looked at the boy and walked forward while muttering.

The whole town is actually quite dark. There are only a few lanterns by the roadside. Seeing the lantern that is very similar to Uncle Wang's house, Xiaomei also realizes something. went out.

However, this is really a dilapidated street. Not to mention that every door is closed, it is very dilapidated just from the door.

However, when they turned another alley, a brighter light suddenly appeared at the intersection ahead, and the boy in front immediately began to trot.

There seems to be a small shop there. A white-haired old man was fanning the stove listlessly. The silver-haired boy ran fast. When Ronggui and the others were still around the corner, he had already started chatting with the old man.

By the time Ronggui passed by, the boy had already hurriedly ran away, as if he was looking for something.

During this period of time, someone came out of the inn, and the latecomers took the lead. Those people deliberately rushed in front of Ronggui and the others. When Ronggui and Xiaomei walked past, they received the "task" from the old man. It's already quite a lot.

With a blink of an eye, Ronggui waited until the people in front were lined up to finish the task, and then pulled Xiaomei to stand in front of the old man.

"Hello, old man."

The old man didn't even look at him, he still just stared at the stove in front of him, and said after a while: "There seems to be not enough firewood in the stove, the fire is not strong enough..."

Wait, this... does it mean asking for firewood

So Ronggui took Xiaomei and decided to go to a place with firewood to collect firewood.

This seems to be a small town, with a river in front and a mountain in the back. If you want firewood, you have to go to the side of the mountain. You can understand this honor.

However, what surprised him was that he had come to pick up several sticks of firewood, and there was still no one else in Houshan except him and Xiaomei. What about the people who took over the task before? Did everyone pick it up

Ronggui told Xiaomei his doubts.

Xiaomei took a deep look at him and said after a while: "Actually, if you hadn't pulled me over, I wouldn't know what the other party wanted. I should still be searching for the meaning of the word "firewood"..."

"Huh?" After careful recall, Ronggui realized that the word "firewood" that the old man had just said was actually in his native language.

Ronggui: ? ! ! !

When they returned with some firewood, one person hurried to the back mountain, glanced at the firewood that Ronggui and Xiaomei were holding in their arms, and then squatted down and picked it up.

And many more gave up.

"...I don't know what the hell this place is! The whole street is in tatters, and the characters in the game still say some inexplicable things that I don't understand. Maybe it's a novice village for learning themes~ Forget it, I'm not good at learning themes. I'd better go find you..." The person who said it was the silver-white-haired boy who took up the task first. When they walked back with the firewood, the other party glanced at them, and in the end they continued to walk in the direction of the inn.

In this way, Ronggui and the others finally took over the task, but they were the first to complete it.

Seeing that they successfully handed in the task, many people also went to the back mountain to find the same thing, and at this time, Ronggui and Xiaomei were already completing the new task.

They went to find a "fan" because the old man said that the firewood was available, but the wind didn't seem to be strong enough, so the fan must be leaking and it was not easy to use~

So they went to find the fan again.

Some followed them to find it, and some went to check the information on their own, and then another group of people quit.

Others are probably tossed about by these inexplicable ancient words~ However, Ronggui is very happy. In order to find a fan, he knocked on many people's doors. Some people don't open the door, while others do The door is open.

Then he saw clothes that were very characteristic of his hometown → Although it was an ancient version, Ronggui was very excited about anything related to his own era, and Xiaomei~ Xiaomei also has a strong desire to learn about unknown things. , he not only listened to the explanation given to him by Ronggui, but also searched for materials on the Internet by himself, not to mention, he really found a lot of more detailed information that even Ronggui didn't know.

When they were in the fan shop, they saw a lot of very beautiful fans, not only the big fan of the stove, but also the small group fan, the folding fan, the feather fan... The craftsmanship is very exquisite, even Xiaomei is attracted by this design. Although Ronggui was proud, he could not tell the design concepts and allusions of these fans. In the end, Xiaomei found an introduction from the Internet and shared it with Ronggui. Together, the two learned about the development history of fans in Ronggui's hometown.

Although it took a lot of time, both of them were very happy.

However, when they handed in this quest and received a new quest, they discovered that there are not many people left in this small village.

To be precise, there are not many players left.

Most people feel that this kind of game is too difficult, and most of the time is wasted on researching materials. Rather than researching materials, they would rather go to other novice villages to complete some quests, so most people leave. .

This game is very free. If you are not satisfied with the novice village where you were born, you can go to other novice villages for a little money. Compared with looking for information everywhere, it is obviously easier to start from a different starting point.

People kept coming, and then people kept leaving. Before he knew it, he and Xiaomei were the only people left in the entire novice village.

The novice village without players is as quiet as a dead city, that... The so-called "ghost clothing" probably refers to this kind of thing? Rong Gui thought to himself and looked at Xiaomei with a bit of hesitation. He was reluctant to be here. After all, this place must be related to his hometown. However, the tasks here seem really boring, and there are no other players. In this way, there are only two Personal games... It's boring to think about.

"It's okay, if you like it, we'll stay here, anyway, I don't like playing games." Aware of Ronggui's thoughts, Xiaomei immediately said to him: "I have now mastered 800 ancient words from your place. Well, it's good to keep learning, besides—"

Xiaomei looked around: "The scenery here is different from other places. If we can complete all the novice tasks and go out to have a look, it should be worth a visit."

"Oh my god! I haven't thought of this before, but if you think about it, it's really worth looking forward to!" In the end, it was Xiaomei's words that made Ronggui excited again: "Let's have fun, and then play around in the game. Water, take a photo and upload it when you encounter a good scenery, and those players who left because they were afraid of trouble might regret leaving after seeing our beautiful photos!”

In this way, Rong Gui and Xiaomei became two life players.

=-=

Xiaomei learned how to make a fan from Auntie Fan, while Ronggui and Uncle Kansho started to learn how to fan the stove. Since there are very few players, they have a good relationship with various NPCs, and they are still in Uncle Furnace. The home got a small room.

The speed of the brain waves is very fast. They spent a week in the game, and when Ronggui woke up from the game, he realized that the real time had only passed one night.

Entering the virtual world for the first time, Rong Gui and Xiaomei both fell asleep in the game room.

When they chatted with Jalando about the game afterwards, they heard that they were born in that novice village, and Jalando was obviously a little surprised.

"It was a new novice village launched this year, but it was listed as the least popular novice village as soon as it was launched, because the tasks were cumbersome and difficult, and a little boring..."

"To be honest, we found this game in the system of the ancient game hall. I don't know where the ancient game is, but the scene is really beautiful, so I thought of adding it to the game section as a new map, but there is a very famous one. The history professor of the game was very interested in the game, provided a lot of help, and also helped decipher a lot of translation problems."

"It's just... With his help, the game seems to be more difficult, more like a learning mode game."

"Players don't like it even more."

"If no players stay in this section for a long time, to be honest, this section will be deleted if it is not good."

"Since you like it, let's have fun before the company deletes the file."
