055 Bandit

Green grass is everywhere, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant. At this time, the carriage has walked out of the mountain road and is driving on the wide road in the wilderness. In the distance within sight, the people riding on the carriage can see what is going on in the wilderness through the window on the side of the carriage.

Cattle and sheep running freely, as well as other animals that occasionally appear.

Such beautiful and non-aggressive nature is the peaceful scene that most players want to see.

Perhaps affected by the relaxing environment around him, or perhaps still immersed in the joy of what he experienced last night and unable to extricate himself, Mengzhu, who was lying by the window, couldn't help humming an unknown tune.

, enjoying the scenery along the way happily.

Ever since the old man who called himself Gustan appeared in front of them, the old man had shown great kindness to the people in the convoy. And including the angry businessmen, other people in the convoy also expressed their feelings towards the man who wanted to ride.

The old man hitchhiking to the nearest town showed great enthusiasm, not only because he had just saved the people in the convoy and their property, but also because of the profession the old man introduced himself to.

As the captain of the escort, Kidd was also one of the people who actively welcomed the old man. He even prepared the best seat and the safest service in the convoy for the old man who seemed to be unable to see. But the name Gustan, he

He had never even heard of it, so Kidd was not even familiar with this dying old man.

However, he has heard of the profession of Destiny Weaver.

After endless entanglement with Kidd, Duan Qing learned from his mouth that the so-called destiny weavers are a very small group of people on the Free Continent. They are men and women, old or young, but every time someone

When I see them in the mountains, in the wilderness, or in the busy city, they always appear dressed as travelers, tell the world some strange words that contain inexplicable philosophy, and then turn away and disappear before their eyes. In short,

, the impression this group of people has left on the world, apart from being mysterious, is only those that show strength inadvertently.

However, according to rumors from some people who know the inside story, one of the most obvious abilities of the Destiny Weaver profession is to change destiny. Listen, their ability can even change a person's old physique and make a weak person strong.

, or make a physically strong person have the ability to cast spells.

It turns out that the purges circulating on the Internet are looking for you... Hearing this, Duan Qing opened his mouth wide, but in the end nothing came out.

Any role-playing game that contains attributes generally has an indispensable system: washing. This allows some people who have added the wrong attributes before, or who do not want to continue playing with this attribute, a chance to change their ways. But freedom

In the world, this system was discovered very late, and as mentioned above, if you want to meet those NPCs who can be washed, you need luck. Not to mention that the aborigines in the Free Continent are so strong, are they willing to help?

You still have a question. As soon as you hear the name Destiny Weaver, you will know that it is very powerful. If you want them to help players change their "destiny", it will probably cost a lot of money.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t be so many people like Hearts of Iron who delete their accounts and practice again.

It's a pity that the people on Duan Qing's side are all players who have just come out of Novice Village, and they don't need such services at all. If these hidden masters who travel everywhere can teach players one and a half moves like in ordinary games,

It's great when you think about it. But these people, not even those from the Warrior House and the Mage Association, have taught players even a single move. Otherwise, this game would not have maintained the record of having the fewest skills in the history of virtual games.

.

Of course, although you can't try a "washing" service, from Duan Qing's perspective, other rumors are relatively true.

After the mutual introduction that night, the blind old man was invited to the team by Kidd and received the highest level of treatment they could provide. However, the old man did not express too much gratitude for such hospitality. It seemed that

It seems that he has become accustomed to the attitude of the world towards him. And under this invisible status difference, when he looks around with his eyes covered by cloth, everyone he "sees" has a certain

A feeling of sincerity and fear when being seen.

Duan Qing and Mengzhu did not feel this way, because when they were looked at by those blind eyes, their feelings were no different from their usual feelings. The girl was even confused about the strange old man who had been looking here, not knowing that he

Amidst the flattery of those people over there, the crowd always looking at the players, what is the reason for that?

The old people in this game are indeed very strange... Mengzhu judged this in his heart.

But after that, her attitude towards this strange old man changed greatly. Because the old man seemed to have opened his eyes and understood their current difficulties.

"Fate tells me that you want to form an adventure group, right?"

This was what happened after everyone set up camp to rest and have dinner. When several players on Duan Qing's side were sitting together and playing time in boredom, the old man with a wooden stick walked over quietly.

Then, he asked this surprising question.

Several players stopped talking and looked at the old man who could read minds with suspicious eyes - the mountain wind at night blew Bai Bai, who rested his hands on the wooden stick and covered his eyes with cloth and didn't care about other people.

He "watched" them with his eyes motionless.

To be precise, he was looking at Duan Qing.

In the depressing atmosphere, everyone focused their attention on Duan Qing and the man named Gustan. After a long time, it seemed that he finally reacted, and Duan Qing replied slowly: "Yes, yes. Excuse me...

....”

"If possible..." The calm old man said what he meant directly: "I can help you."

He leaned on the wooden staff and bowed slightly, causing the businessmen who were peeking behind to exclaim. Several players did not feel flattered. Duan Qing squinted slightly and said nothing, as if he wanted to understand this sudden appearance.

The real purpose of the old man.

"I am quite famous within the Principality." Seeing the other party, the old man showed no expression. His tone remained unchanged, his voice was old and steady: "If you go to Fenghua Town and meet Rama...

Reporting my name should have some effect."

Duan Qing held his chin and lowered his head, seeming to be in hesitation. The uncle named Smiling Butcher sat aside and remained silent, while the other Baili Duyou showed a look of disdain.

"Thank you for your kindness, but..." After a period of consideration, Duan Qing still planned to refuse this pie falling from the sky. In his opinion, the identity of the old man in front of him was too mysterious. He sold it to

There may be some conspiracy behind his favor. And based on his understanding of the Destiny Weavers, it seems that people who dance with fate will not end well in the end. If they are related to them...

.

But the most fundamental thing is Duan Qing's confidence in his own strength - in his opinion, the words he said before Baili Youyou are still a bit bluffing. He feels that those tests, trials, etc. are not nothing.

There are many obstacles to overcome, so if you seriously apply for an adventure group to play, it shouldn't be difficult.

However, before he could play with his words, he was grabbed by Mengzhu on the side. The girl's force was so strong that he almost fell over.

"Hey! Don't just let go of such a good opportunity..." Mengzhu said in Duan Qing's ear. Although her voice was not loud, her eyes were full of anxiety: "Although I don't know

Why, but such an opportunity is presented to me..."

"Pie never falls from the sky..."

"Oh, if you can save one, save one..."

This can be saved... Duan Qing finally understood what the girl meant, so he had to smile bitterly.

"Right... If the establishment of the adventure group goes smoothly, how much money can we save... Uh, no, how much trouble."

"...."

"The sooner we can establish an adventure group, the sooner we can find ways to make money..."

"..." Duan Qing's expression became very strange.

"The number of people is not a problem! I have already thought about it. I just need to find some free people to join me. The remaining problem is..."

"Okay, okay, I know, I know." Seeing that Mengzhu was about to start home mode, Duan Qing quickly stopped her imagination and agreed.

The two people returned to Gustan. Ignoring the vague smile hanging on the corner of the old man's mouth, Duan Qing said calmly: "Ahem, we discussed it... we can get your help.

, it’s our honor.”

The old man finally pulled up the corners of his mouth - in the eyes of the players in front of him, this was an ugly smile.

He put his hand into his arms, groped for a while, and then took out something. A few people took a closer look and saw that it seemed to be a bracelet woven with red and black ropes. The two red and black threads were twisted together in a spiral.

, although the material looks ordinary, it also reveals a hint of weirdness.

"Choice determines destiny, and destiny weaves the future." The old man said this, and then handed the bracelet in his hand to Mengzhu: "I guess you need some tokens."

The girl nodded her head as if understanding, and then took the bracelet over.

The old man smiled with satisfaction again, then slowly turned around and left slowly under the complicated eyes of others. Duan Qing covered his head and ran away with a headache, while Mengzhu held the bracelet and stared at it with blurred eyes.

After looking at it for a long time, he nodded happily and put it directly on his wrist.

So on the road the next day, the girl kept waving her right hand with the bracelet on and chattering in the carriage, which not only attracted the attention of the coachman, but also attracted the dissatisfaction of the other two players traveling with her.

Especially Baili Youyou, since what happened last night, his eyes towards Duan Qing have become even more unfriendly.

Isn't it just stealing your limelight... Duan Qing ignored the strange looks from the person sitting opposite him, and chatted with the excited girl from time to time, making her look forward to a bright future.

.

When the girl occasionally fell into a trance, Duan Qing would look out of the car boredly. At noon, the increasingly hot sunshine fell on their heads, and the roads in the wilderness were unobstructed, so the passengers were enjoying the boundless scenery.

At the same time, you can also see clearly the situation before and after the road.

Duan Qing stretched out his head and looked at the front of the motorcade - the carriage was traveling very slowly, and even on a road that was not wide, there was no risk of encountering the same danger as a car accident. Duan Qing set his sights on a carriage ahead.

, in that carriage, whose quality was obviously much better than other carriages, the old man was riding.

After a night, Duan Qing still didn't understand what reason would make an old man who was respected by the world rush to help two adventurers who met by chance. No, how did he know about Duan Qing before that?

What are Mengzhu's future plans? Is there really a way to read minds in this world, or are there people with abilities? Although it seems normal for these characters to appear in a world of swords and magic, this is a free world...

..

Duan Qing really didn't like this feeling of being out of control.

A cold snort came from the other side of the carriage again. Duan Qing knew without looking that it was probably the man who traveled alone for hundreds of miles. The man with long hair was probably looking at this side with disdain, probably because he saw that he was doing nothing.

He seems confident, and he must be a little unhappy in his heart. But how does he know about this kind of unknown benefit... huh?

In front of the convoy, the leading carriage seemed to have stopped.

"There's a situation!"

There was a shout from ahead.

The carriage gradually slowed down and then stopped. Duan Qing looked away from the front, and then began to look further away - there seemed to be some strange black shadows on the not-wide road, vaguely.

appear on the road.

"What is that, a tree root? A wheel? Or..." Due to the distance, Duan Qing couldn't see clearly.

"Anything is possible, it's just an obstacle anyway." The coachman sitting in front answered Duan Qing's question as if he was talking to himself.

"obstacle?"

"Yes." The coachman jumped out of the car, and then took out a long knife from under the shaft seat.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Several players finally noticed something was wrong.

"Don't worry, this situation is very common for us." The coachman did not look back, but his forward steps were close to the edge of the carriage: "It should be a bandit."

"What..." Duan Qing couldn't believe his ears: "There are still bandits here?"

"Of course." The driver, who was about to walk out of the sight of several people, looked back: "We often deal with them, so... don't worry."

He shook off the knife in his hand and walked to the front of the convoy.

"We...were attacked?"

Only then did a few people come out of the carriage. The girl rubbed her hands and asked Duan Qing next to her, and received a positive reply from him.

"Yeah." Duan Qing said with a bitter smile.

"It seems like we were... robbed."
