MTL - Be a Social Cow In An Infinite Game-Chapter 63 Travel with a group (23)
After being abandoned by the ruthless and unscrupulous tour guide, the first thing everyone did was to exit the ancestral hall and get out of sight of the half-faced holy Buddha statue.
There's no way, it's too courageous to run around under the ghost king's nose without hiding his identity.
Xia Zhiyi looked up to see the direction where the little bear was leaving.
Little Bear had disappeared, and there were only white clouds floating in the sky.
She couldn't help but sighed: "It's really comfortable to be a task NPC, I want to be one after seeing it."
When Jing Ruyu heard this, she took it back very calmly for her: "It's better not to be inappropriate. If you become a staff member here, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave the New World again."
Xia Zhiyi was right after thinking about it, shrugged: "What should we do now?"
The cubs are gone, and no one is helping to lead the way out of here. With the routine of the new world, they will definitely not let them touch the forest exit smoothly.
They seemed to have no choice but to stay here and wait for the bear to come back.
Jing Ruyu was not discouraged, she stood on the high platform at the entrance of the ancestral hall and looked around the whole village.
The new world will not set up a dead end, and you can definitely go out alive here, either wait for the bear to come back, or find a way by yourself.
"Go into the village and look for it, maybe there are some clues."
Before they could make a move, Feng Jiqiang and Wei Chuchu had already made a move one step ahead of them.
There may be some props hidden in this tribe, they want to find them before everyone else!
Cao An felt that he couldn't stay idle all the time, so he politely greeted Xia Zhiyi and the two, followed him back to the village, and searched cautiously.
He only hoped to get a hint that he could pass the level from under the ghost king's nose tomorrow night.
Even if you can't get the reminder to clear the level, it's good to give him a talisman, he will be tortured crazy every night!
The new world is not a place where individuals can stay! !
Jing Ruyu watched the three leave, and then said to Xia Zhiyi, "Let's go and have a look, and think about what to do tomorrow night on the way."
Xia Zhiyi nodded earnestly, and hugged her right arm in a habitual and natural way.
Caring for the injured is everyone's responsibility.
Jing Ruyu saw that she was serious about taking her life and death as her own responsibility, and for some reason, couldn't help but chuckled: "Zhiyi, don't be so nervous about me."
Xia Zhiyi looked at her in surprise: "Do you know what you are talking about?"
"You—" paused, looked left and right, and stared at her left shoulder with a suppressed voice after confirming that there was no one there.
Jing Ruyu's smile deepened, and her tone was extremely gentle: "I'm afraid you will blame yourself too much."
Xia Zhiyi didn't speak, and remained silent.
Jing Ruyu knew that she was right, and touched her face with a smile to comfort her: "Zhiyi, it is the best result that we are still alive and standing here, if I didn't go to you at that time, I would regret it for the rest of my life. "
As long as both of them can go on alive, what is a little injury?
She doesn't care about this bit of physical pain, she only cares about whether Xia Zhiyi is safe or not - she will never really care about her.
Xia Zhiyi's face was moved when he heard it, and his eyes suddenly became determined.
She hugged her beloved savior generously, and solemnly promised: "I will take you through the customs safely, believe me, I will definitely do it!"
"Um."
Jing Ruyu patted her on the back with a smile.
"We Xiaoxia can definitely do it."
"Let's go, let's go and see if they have a library here, maybe we can find some history books in it."
"it is good."
"and many more."
"?"
Xia Zhiyi turned around and walked towards a pile of firewood, took out a convenient wooden stick from it, weighed it, and waved it - yes, this is it!
"Find a self-defense guy before leaving, and when something pops out, I can give it a stick first!
"I'll go ahead, you go behind."
She put on a posture of guarding, and looked around like an eagle.
Jing Ruyu saw her vigilant and vigilant appearance as if facing a formidable enemy, she found it cute but couldn't bear to be hit, so she obediently walked behind her, and cooperated: "Okay, I'll walk behind you."
I don't know if it's because this place is regarded as a tourist attraction, but there is a signboard in the center of the tribe, which clearly shows where the attractions in the tribe are located.
There is a library, and an arsenal.
Feng Jiqiang and Wei Chuchu designated the library as the second place to go, and went to the armory first.
Xia Zhiyi and Jing Ruyu decided to go to the library early in the morning, with a clear goal.
Cao An was caught in the middle, confused, and finally decided to go to the arsenal to get some self-defense guys before looking for clues elsewhere.
The group separated again.
Xia Zhiyi protected Jing Ruyu all the way, guarding the frontier, and finally arrived at the library of the Guyi tribe safely.
The library is also a bamboo building with two floors.
The door on the first floor opened with a slight push, but a lock was added to the door on the second floor, as if there was some secret hidden inside, which immediately aroused people's curiosity.
Xia Zhiyi touched the lock, looked and looked, and gave up.
"Let's go to the first floor to have a look. Anyway, the lock won't be open for a while, and we don't know that kind of lockpicking technique."
Jing Ruyu agreed.
The two went downstairs and stood at the door of the library on the first floor to observe carefully. After confirming that there were no messy things inside, they stepped lightly into the library.
The Guyi people made the library very warm.
The bookshelves on all four sides are full, and only half of the bookshelves are placed on the east wall, and the remaining half is used to open a bright window.
Next to the window is a round wooden pile table with fruits and water bottles on it, surrounded by soft pillows, cushions, and a cozy small hammock.
Lying on the hammock and looking out, you can see the clouds and green mountains, just like a human ink painting.
It is enough to imagine the leisurely life of a girl living alone here.
"If this is not the New World, it is also very suitable for vacation travel."
Xia Zhiyi praised her so much, and after she finished her praise, she remembered her original travel plan and couldn't help sighing.
She wanted to go out to play, but she didn't mean to come to this kind of place to play...
Jing Ruyu casually took a book from the bookshelf, opened it and asked, "Okay, why are you sighing?"
Xia Zhiyi followed suit to check the books inside: "Sigh, my travel plans are ruined."
Jing Ruyu turned to look at her.
Xia Zhiyi: "I was planning to go on a trip, but I was thrown into it. I haven't been anywhere yet."
It was only at this time that Jing Ruyu knew that she had travel plans.
Where would she want to play?
Is it because of this that you resigned?
"You...go alone?"
"Otherwise? Get a new girlfriend before you go?"
"?"
"That's not impossible."
"..."
Jing Ruyu closed the book without any information in her hand with a "snap", and put it back on the shelf with a blank expression.
"Mr. Xia, now is not the time to think about a new girlfriend."
Xia Zhiyi glanced at her expression, smiled secretly, then flipped through the book solemnly and said, "This is called having fun while suffering.
"My good travel plans are ruined, why can't I think about it?
"Oh, I really want to travel..."
After she finished speaking, Jing Ruyu put her hands on the shelf, and suddenly turned her head to look at her seriously.
She also restrained her joking tone: "What are you doing?"
I only heard Jing Ruyu softly said: "I will go."
She was sure and firmly believed: "You will definitely pass the test here, and you will leave here safely, and go to all the places you want to go—for sure."
Her ex-girlfriend is so smart and cute, God will not be willing to let her down, let alone take her life cruelly.
She believes that she can go to the end, get a new life, and live the rest of her life safely and happily from then on.
"You too," Xia Zhiyi said with a gentle gaze, curved lips and a smile, "We agreed to leave here together, you must not go back on your word."
Jing Ruyu smiled back.
"Well, I will never go back on my word."
Satisfied, Xia Zhiyi closed the book happily, and said happily: "The characters of the Guyi people are quite similar to Chinese characters, fortunately I can understand them, otherwise it would be nothing.
"Thank you New World for raising your hand here."
After reading it for a long time, the books here are basically story books, and the stories of the ancestors of the Guyi people are written in the language of the Guyi people, or some fairy tales.
They roughly searched through dozens of books, but they didn't find any historical books related to the girl and the half-faced Buddha. They did know what the costumes of the Guyi people looked like. It is mainly green, with a circle of black tassels pinned around the waist.
The two had to wonder whether the relevant clues would be on the second floor, and even this history did not remain at all.
At this time, only the girl was left. If she didn't take the initiative to record, who would know what happened next?
"Perhaps, she is writing a diary?" Jing Ruyu made a hypothesis.
Xia Zhiyi nodded: "It's possible, let's go to Grandma Luo's house to look for it later."
The two of them now agree that Grandma Luo is probably the girl in this story, and they may not be able to gain anything from her family.
Xia Zhiyi squatted down while talking, and was attracted by a book on the bottom shelf that was incompatible with the surrounding style.
The color of the spine is mottled, which is exactly the same as the wall of the ancestral hall.
She raised her hand to beckon Jing Ruyu to come over, poked the spine of the book lightly with a wooden stick, and said in a low voice: "I am a little concerned about this book, but I am afraid that it may be deceitful. After staying in the new world for a long time, it is not easy to read anything." ..."
However, she poked for a long time and nothing came out.
She didn't dare to relax, so she held the stick carefully, trying to get the book out just like that.
At this moment, a bone hand suddenly protruded from the small space vacated by the bookshelf!
It quickly grabbed the wooden stick with astonishing strength, and it was stubborn, unwilling to let go!
Xia Zhiyi was startled suddenly.
Jing Ruyu instinctively leaned over to protect her, but she suddenly stretched out her hand, and while her bony hand was focusing on the stick, she pulled out the book with lightning speed!
After getting the item, Xia Zhiyi decisively threw away the stick, and immediately stood up and grabbed Jing Ruyu's hand: "Run!"
Before Jing Ruyu could react to what she just did, she was led away from the library on the first floor.
The two didn't run far, and stopped after drawing a distance from the library.
Unlike the expected critical situation, nothing behind them caught up, as if they just jumped out to scare them.
Xia Zhiyi first confirmed Jing Ruyu's wound.
"Are you okay? Did you touch the wound? Does it hurt?"
"It's okay, let's read this book."
"it is good."
It was only then that Xia Zhiyi noticed that the thing she had risked to get...was very light.
She couldn't help frowning: "Why is this thing so light?"
Weighed it, shook it, and there was a crisp sound inside, as if something was being shaken and bumped around.
"There's something in it, it looks like an iron box... Shall we open it and have a look?"
"Okay," Jing Ruyu said, "Be careful."
Xia Zhiyi thought for a while and said, "Is there something sealed inside, after we release it, he will say to help us realize our wishes, and then we can use his hand to kill the half-faced holy Buddha?"
"..."
At this moment, Jing Ruyu actually felt that this brain hole... quite reasonable.
"Open it and have a look, it would be great if it is."
To be cautious, Xia Zhiyi put the things on the open ground, searched around and finally found another stick.
"Stay away."
She protected the injured Jing Ruyu behind her, and when they stood far away, she carefully stretched out her stick to pry the iron box.
After a long time, the iron box was finally opened.
Unlike what I imagined, there is no colorful light rushing out, and there is no grand scene of the big devil smiling "ho **** ho" to say that he has finally been released.
The weather was calm, and the atmosphere was a little awkward for a while.
Xia Zhiyi leaned forward - the iron box was empty, and there was a lonely key inside.
The two looked at each other.
Xia Zhiyi turned the box over again with a stick, and the key fell into the mound, but nothing appeared.
She was silent for a moment, and then carefully pulled the key to her feet with a wooden stick, and bent down to pick it up.
"Too cautious," she sighed, "I was not so cautious when I was doing exam questions when I was in school."
New world, oh new world, you are really harmful!
Jing Ruyu looked at the key in her hand, put it in her palm to observe carefully, and turned to look at the second floor of the library.
"Is this the key to the door lock on the second floor?"
"Zhiyi, I'm afraid we have to go back and have a look."
The author has something to say:
There are more changes.
jj smoked again, unable to reply, numb.
