"Is there a place for burning incense here?" Haoran turned around and saw a player carrying a giant crossbow and covered in silver armor standing behind him.
"Of course it's for burning incense, otherwise why would it be called Xiangtang?" The player was very surprised, pointed to the top of his head and said, "Didn't you see the words on the plaque?"
Haoran followed his gesture and saw a red lacquer plaque hanging above it, with two traditional Chinese characters written in Song calligraphy: Xiangtang.
"Friend, you look like a newcomer here. Even Xiangtang doesn't know about you!" The player muttered, and the more he looked at him, the more unfamiliar he seemed.
"I'm not a new guy, but this is the second time I've been to the gang station today." Haoran said very embarrassedly, implying that he was probably the most irresponsible gang leader ever.
"So that's it." After hearing what he said, the player nodded clearly and said, "Seeing as you are not familiar with the place, I happen to be free now, so I will tell you."
"That's it, thank you very much." Haoran cupped his hands with a smile on his face.
In fact, as the leader of his gang, there is no need to rely on hearsay about the role of the buildings in the gang. It only takes a few seconds to call up the gang interface in the player panel to see what new buildings and what fragrances are there.
The functions of things like military camps can be clearly seen at a glance. However, since this player is so enthusiastic right now, he is happy to listen to other people's opinions.
"Speaking of this incense hall, it's really a fun thing. Each member of the gang can burn incense twice a day, and each time he burns incense, he can get a lot of experience." The player introduced with a proud face: "That's because our Wizard of Oz level up
Only when we reach the third-level gang are we lucky enough to enjoy this benefit. If we move to other small gangs, we don’t know when we will be able to enjoy this kind of benefit."
"Sounds really good." Haoran's eyes lit up. He didn't have to do anything and could get two experiences for free every day. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a good thing?
"You know you've joined a good gang, right?" The player's face became even more proud. People who didn't know it might mistakenly think that the Wizard of Oz was owned by his family.
"Of course it's a good gang." Haoran nodded repeatedly, needless to say anything else, just because he is the leader of the gang here, he has to be praised wherever he goes.
"By the way, how much experience can I get each time?" He stared at the player and asked.
"There is no fixed number for this." The enthusiastic player said: "It is usually based on the player's own level, position in the gang and contribution. For example, although I don't have a position in the gang, I can donate at least one yuan every day.
With a white piece of equipment, if you burn the incense twice, your level will increase by 50% of the experience of this level."
"So cool? Then if you donate gold-level or above equipment, wouldn't you be able to level up every day?" Haoran exclaimed: "This can rival the efficiency of going out to defeat the boss."
"Do you think gold-level equipment is a stone?" The player glared at him and said, "Don't you know that the equipment explosion rate in Wuji is low? Also, the system has issued a new policy. From now on, except for bosses, there will be no more equipment.
It’s impossible to get equipment with attributes from ordinary monsters.”
"This is good news!" Haoran was overjoyed when he heard this. He only dropped white equipment. What's the point? We have the synthesis technique. As long as there are enough white equipment, any high-end equipment is not a problem. Moreover, the less good equipment is released, the better he will be.
If he could make a fortune from it, there was no way he could stop the money that was coming to his door. He was so happy that words came out of his mouth without paying attention.
"Idiot, you are so poorly equipped and you are still praised for it?" The player glanced at him angrily and said, "Do you think you are a master and can kill the boss when you meet him? Let me tell you, if you don't work hard, I'm afraid you will
I have to wear this piece of garbage for a month!"
"Cough, cough..." Haoran felt embarrassed and quickly coughed twice to cover up his gaffe.
"Forget it, I see you are a novice too, don't talk nonsense in the future when you don't understand anything." The player shook his head and said, "I'll go in and burn incense first, you can take care of yourself."
After saying that, he dodged and quickly entered the Xiang Hall. A few seconds later, the player came out with a satisfied look on his face, obviously having gained a lot of experience.
"Be good at killing monsters and improve your level. You will eventually succeed." Before leaving, he did not forget to give Haoran a few words of sincere advice.
"Haha, thank you." Haoran smiled at him and remembered this person's name "A Fei". This person's warm-heartedness left a deep impression on him. Looking at his equipment, if he had made it all by himself,
His strength should not be weak among archers. If there is a chance in the future, you can consider arranging a suitable position for him in the gang.
After Ah Fei left, Haoran also walked into the incense hall. After donating two gold coins for the incense, the system prompt sounded.
"Ding, player Kuangsheng Xiaobai, you burn incense for the first time today, and you will get 30% of the experience of this level."
"Ding, player Kuangsheng Xiaobai, since you are the leader of this gang, you will get an additional 10% of the experience of this level. This time, you will get a total of 40% of the experience of this level."
A large amount of experience poured in, and although Haoran didn't immediately upgrade, it made him feel warm and comfortable all over.
Haoran wanted to burn both incense today at once, but the system reminded him that the interval between burning incense must be more than 2 hours.
Forget it, since the experience gained also refers to the player's level, he might as well go out to kill monsters first, and then come back after a few levels to light incense. Haoran made up his mind and went directly to the wild after leaving the incense hall.
The station is not far from the Forest of Despair. Haoran first spent some time in the wild with the red poisonous scorpions. Under the continuous burst of magic, those huge creatures just fell to the ground. In just half an hour, he had already reached level 22.
By the way, I also harvested three pieces of white equipment.
Thinking that he had been online for a long time, Haoran was afraid that his parents would have objections, so he wanted to log off immediately. However, after looking around, he found that monsters spawned from time to time. If he went offline, it would probably be online next time.
Directly fell into the siege of a group of monsters.
After thinking for a while, he quickly returned to the gang and returned to the Demon Clan's Creation Temple through a special teleportation array. In fact, even if there were no safety considerations, he still wanted to go back and see how Ruo'er was doing. Since he escaped from the seal,
Behind the Earth, he tried several times to summon Ruoer Beauty, but failed. Although he repeatedly comforted himself, linking this abnormal state to a low level, there was always a hint of uneasiness in his heart.
"What, you're not dead?!" Just as he was looking around for Ruo'er, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.
"Miyuki, it's you..." Haoran was overjoyed. When he met this cousin, was he still worried about not finding the beauty Ruo'er?
"Ouch~" Before he could finish the rest of his words, he felt a huge pain in his arm.
"Is he really alive?" Miyuki retracted her hand thoughtfully. In order to test whether Haoran was alive or not, she showed no mercy at all when she twisted it off.
"Are you mistaken? If you were stronger, a living person would become a dead person!" Haoran looked at her angrily, baring his teeth in pain.
"How did you survive?" Miyuki had questions in her mind and quickly asked.
"It took a lot of energy to change." Haoran didn't want to dwell too much on this issue, so he asked again: "Where's Ruo'er? How come I didn't see her after walking around for a while?"
"Ruo'er..." Miyuki's eyes suddenly turned red when she heard her cousin's name, and two lines of tears immediately flowed down her cheeks.
"What happened?" Haoran was alert, and a very bad intuition arose from the bottom of his heart.
Miyuki just kept crying, as if she didn't hear his words at all. After a long while, she raised her eyes, which were swollen like a panda, and uttered two words: "Dead."
"What~!" Haoran was shocked. Miyuki's voice was quiet, but those two words echoed in his mind like thunder.
"It would have been better if you had come back a day earlier." Miyuki sobbed: "Because of your death, after Ruoer returned to the clan, he isolated himself in a secret room that was haunted in the past, and no one could approach it. Yesterday
The devil couldn't help but go see it in person, and found that she had died quietly in her room."
"Impossible!" Haoran covered his head in pain. When he came all the way, his mind was still flashing back to Ruo'er's sweet and affectionate appearance towards him in the boudoir a few nights ago, but at this moment, he suddenly heard
The news of her death was like a bolt from the blue.
"Ruo'er's expression was peaceful, as if she was asleep, but all the blood on her body was drained." Miyuki paused and continued crying: "She cut her own artery and left a suicide note."
"What was written in the suicide note?" Haoran's heart felt like a knife. He never thought that as an NPC, Ruo'er would actually commit suicide.
"There is only one sentence, 'The blue sky above is poor and the underworld is down.'" Miyuki sobbed.
"The poor blue sky has fallen into the underworld?" Haoran was stunned. This is a line from Bai Juyi's "Song of Everlasting Sorrow". It tells that Emperor Ming of the Tang Dynasty missed the dead Concubine Yang and was determined to find her no matter in heaven or on earth. Could it be that Ruo'er wanted to die after his death?
, go to the underworld to find your soul?
"Ruo'er, why are you so stupid!" Haoran looked up to the sky and cried. Even though he knew that she was not a real person, the pain of separation was no less painful than losing a close friend in reality.
"Ruo'er's body is still in that room. According to the custom of the demon clan, it takes three days after death to be buried." Miyuki held back her sorrow and said, "Let's go see her for the last time."
Haoran said nothing and rushed into the main hall.
"Wait a minute, I haven't said which haunted house it is." Miyuki's voice came from afar.
"I know." Haoran continued to run without looking back. There was only one haunted house that the two of them shared memories of, and that was the one where he conquered the silly boy.
Along the way, he met many NPCs, all of whom came to pay their respects to Ruo'er. Ruo'er was unparalleled in beauty, and she was also a proud daughter among the clan in terms of ability. Her sudden death in love has shocked the entire demon clan.
After the beauty died, all the tribesmen who had a chance encounter with her came to see her for the last time with pity.
