Bai Youyou didn't quite understand why the elder would ask the player's opinion alone. It seemed as if he was not familiar with the player. According to her opinion, the system clearly assigned an identity to each player, and her announcement to join the NPC confirmed it.
got this point.
But now it seems that the players are not very familiar with the NPC.
Is it possible…
Is there a time limit for joining an NPC team?
Bai Youyou thinks this is very likely. After all, when entering the game, the average player will first quietly observe the surrounding environment and judge their situation based on the NPC dialogue. In order to avoid mistakes, they generally do not trade.
He rashly interrupted, and this time point is probably the time point given by the system to gain the trust of the NPC. After this time point, the players will have other identities.
Even though she is a member of the team, she is not as close to the NPC as she is.
Of course, all this is just her guess.
Regardless of whether the guess is correct or not, the fact is that she has become a member of the NPC, and the distance between the players and the NPC is relatively clear.
Bai Youyou's mind was spinning rapidly, but his face remained calm. After the elder finished the conversation with the players, he greeted them: "Everyone, please stay close and don't scatter."
"Lao You, keep an eye on Tuantuan."
The veteran is obviously the leader of this team.
Bai Youyou noticed that when the elder was speaking, the faces of the other NPCs were very serious. After he finished speaking, Hu Laoyou obediently picked up the quirky little girl who looked to be only seven or eight years old.
Such a young girl also followed the team.
And that monk, who could cause such a big reaction from the elders with just one word, seemed to be no ordinary monk.
This combination is really unique.
Bai Youyou pursed her lips and couldn't help but sigh again.
The senator walked in front holding the compass. This time his speed was obviously much faster.
The others followed him closely. Zhu Yingcang even took off his coat, revealing the shirt underneath. The white shirt made him look darker.
The ground is dry.
Branches fell all over the ground.
It makes a crunching sound when stepped on.
The forest is very quiet. Apart from the absence of birds, there are not even any snakes and insects. You can only hear each other's footsteps and breathing. Together with the dense forest that blocks the sky and lacks any sunlight, it is quite eerie.
Feel.
The whole journey was speechless.
The further we go, the denser the trees become, the thicker the trunks become, and the air becomes more humid. The wind comes from all directions, and the gentle branches and leaves like a big hand make a rustling sound, and bring infinite chill.
, which made the elders and others look unhappy, and they hugged the little girl in their arms tightly.
"Tuantuan, are you cold?"
"Not cold."
Tuantuan has a pretty face, with red lips and white teeth, and skin as white as a piece of jade. His black and white eyes are rolling, and he looks full of aura.
The five players obviously noticed something was wrong. Taking this opportunity, the middle-aged man pretended to smile casually: "Tuantuan is so cute. I remember that at her age, she should be going to elementary school."
The bearded man glanced at the middle-aged man: "You haven't gone to school yet."
"I know, I just said that she should be in elementary school at this age."
The senator sighed heavily: "In her situation, even if she goes to school, they won't accept her... That's all, let's not talk about this anymore, it's better to leave quickly."
This is interesting.
But the elder had no intention of continuing, so several players had no choice but to give up.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred.
Zhu Yingcang screamed as if he had stepped on something, and immediately fell to the ground lying on his back. Before anyone could react, he seemed to be held by the collar by a pair of big hands.
With a whooshing sound, he was dragged deep into the jungle.
"save--"
This speed is really too fast.
Only an afterimage can be seen.
"Ying Cang!"
The elder's eyes widened suddenly, and he chased in the direction where Zhu Yingcang disappeared. He also ran up with his beard in his arms. Jiang Qian's lips trembled, she bit her lower lip, her eyes were full of anxiety, she wanted to
He glanced at Bai Youyou, took Bai Youyou's hand, and dragged her forward.
Bai Youyou didn't react for a moment and almost didn't fall. Fortunately, her body balance was good, which prevented her from coming into contact with the ground.
A trace of anger flashed in Bai Youyou's eyes.
There was the sound of other people's footsteps coming from behind.
I tolerated it for now.
There is a deep drag mark on the ground where dead branches are intertwined. There are also faint blood stains on the drag mark, and there are even scraped skin and flesh. There are thick trees on both sides, which looks like a passage.
At about two hundred meters, the passage became chaotic. Towering trees were crowded together, leaving only gaps that could only allow one person to pass through at a time. The dead branches on the ground were replaced by weeds. The elders and bearded people in front of them
The figure is shadowy and obscured by the trees.
The sound of gurgling water came to my ears.
It seems that we have reached the creek.
"Be careful yourself."
Jiang Qian threw away Bai Youyou's hand, pushed the branches above her head with her hands, and easily passed through the gap in the big tree. Bai Youyou's stature was similar to Jiang Qian's, so she easily passed through.
"Be careful, the terrain here has changed."
At this time, a sweet female voice suddenly came from behind. Bai Youyou looked back and saw the innocent-looking female player turning her head with concern on her face. Sensing Bai Youyou's gaze, she raised her eyes towards
Bai Youyou pursed her lips and smiled.
His eyes are crooked, and he looks harmless and kind.
Bai Youyou blushed and smiled at her.
After passing through about a dozen gaps in the big trees, a clear stream suddenly opened up in front of them. At this moment, the elder and Lao You were standing in front of the stream, with their backs to Bai Youyou and the others.
Jiang Qian quickly stepped forward and walked to the elders and Lao You, looking anxious: "Uncle You, elders, have you found Zhu Yingcang?"
The senator's face was not very pretty. He closed his eyes, muttered something in his mouth, and moved his fingers slightly, as if he was calculating something.
Lao You turned his head and said to Jiang Qian, "No."
Jiang Qian's brows suddenly wrinkled: "What should we do? Nothing will happen to Zhu Yingcang, right?"
Lao You shook his head and sighed: "I don't know."
At this time, other people came to the stream one by one and heard clearly the conversation between Jiang Qian and the elders. The players had no expressions of surprise on their faces, while Bai Youyou pinched the corners of his clothes pretending to be nervous.
.
The extremely innocent-looking female player narrowed her eyes: "Did any of you see clearly what it was that dragged Zhu Yingcang away just now?"
"No." Everyone shook their heads.
It happened so suddenly. One second they were still talking, and the next second Zhu Yingcang was dragged away, and his thing was dragged very fast. However, in just a second or two, Zhu Yingcang disappeared.
The young man wearing a peaked cap said: "When I came here just now, I looked at the scratches on the ground. Apart from the scratches where Zhu Yingcang was dragged away, there were no other marks."
The pure female player raised her eyebrows: "In that case, the one who dragged Zhu Yingcang away must not have been a beast."
The young man nodded: "At least we can rule out pythons."?
