Liu Xing thought that he had already become the third prince's subordinate after arriving in Liangcheng for the first time, but he didn't expect that it was just a registration at that time.
But think about it, although the third prince is relatively weak among the nine princes, he also has many capable men, so he will not accept him as a stranger in the first place, even if he draws it
The flatbread is not bad.
"Apeng, you don't need to worry too much. This test is actually quite simple. After all, it only takes a few days to get from Fei City to Tianshui Town. Because we also bought a lot of ox carts, the overall speed is pretty good.
, and this road is also a big road, so we don’t need to worry too much about some unsighted guys coming down the mountain to cause us trouble.”
Yu Lei patted Liu Xing's shoulder, and then took out something like a fire bomb from his arms, "This is a special smoke bomb. As long as you throw it out after breaking it, it will explode."
A puff of black smoke will be emitted to alert the surrounding insiders and let them know that someone here needs help, but if you really do this, it means you have given up the test."
Liu Xing took the smoke bomb and said with a smile: "Then I can throw it away now, because I am still confident that I can complete this test."
Before Liu Xing finished speaking, a pigeon suddenly fell into Yu Lei's hand.
Seeing the pigeon, Yu Lei's expression became serious, but he didn't say much.
Liu Xing knew that this was because Yang Qi and Dong Qing were present, so Yu Lei couldn't say much. After all, they were both outsiders.
So Liu Xing winked at Yang Qi and Dong Qian, and Yang Qi, who was the first to react, said, "Well, we have to go back and pack our things now, so we'll take the first step."
Then, Yang Qi took Dong Qing and left first.
After Yang Qi and Dong Qing left, Yu Lei said: "Apeng, you persuaded the troupe to go to Liangcheng so quickly, is it because these people are also related to Donggong Canglong?"
"Yes, they are all my brothers and sisters, so I didn't spend much time convincing them to go to Liangcheng. As for Yang Qi, who escorted me to Feicheng, he saw Miao Fei facing you, brother.
When I lowered my position, I knew you were not an ordinary person, so you wanted to get some benefits through me, and he has indeed got the benefits now." Liu Xing said with a smile.
"Because there are many people like him."
Yu Lei shook his head, pointed at the pigeon and said: "This pigeon is specially used by the third prince to communicate with me in a single line. It does not carry any letter paper on it, because it itself represents a message——
Go to Liangcheng as soon as possible! It seems that the third prince has returned from Luohua Castle and encountered something, so he asked me to return to Liangcheng as soon as possible to meet him."
Hearing what Yu Lei said, Liu Xing said without hesitation: "Brother Yu, are you going back to Liangcheng now? If so, I will explain the situation to Miao Fei for you."
"No, there's no need to be in such a hurry."
After Yu Lei released the pigeon, he shook his head and said: "As soon as possible here does not mean immediately, so I only need to arrive in Liangcheng within five days, because if the third prince is really anxious, then he will do it before this pigeon."
There are iron rings on both feet of the pigeon, which means that I must return to Liangcheng within three days, and the pigeon has iron rings on both feet, which means that I can rush back as fast as I can; so
I estimate that this pigeon was released by the third prince when he left Luohua Castle, so as long as I reach Liangcheng within five days, there will be no problem."
Hearing what Yu Lei said, Liu Xing breathed a sigh of relief again, because if Yu Lei left at this time, he would be in an awkward situation without relatives in Fei City, and he would also have to represent Yu Lei.
Going to Miao Fei's banquet may cause some embarrassment. After all, Miao Fei held this banquet just to entertain Yu Lei. As a result, Yu Lei, the real owner, did not show up and only one of his followers came. This was very difficult for Miao Fei.
There will be a huge sense of gap.
Most importantly, Liu Xing felt that the main reason why Miao Fei agreed to Yu Lei to help escort him and others back to Tianshui Town was not because he really wanted to go to Far West City to buy something, because although Far West City was a freight hub, it was
It is equivalent to a department store market in the real world. Although there are many types of goods in it, none of them are rare goods, so unless you want to buy bulk goods, there is no need to go to Far West City to buy things.
Therefore, Liu Xing felt that Miao Fei wanted to show his kindness to Yu Lei and get a small favor, so that if he wanted to return to Liangcheng to develop in the future, he could gain a foothold through Yu Lei.
Therefore, if Yu Lei left at this time, Liu Xing estimated that Miao Fei would probably find a reason to say that he had something to do, and then stop following Liu Xing to Tianshui Town.
"Let's go, we've been busy for so many days, it's time to have a good meal."
Yu Lei made another hash, shook his head and said: "I got up a little early today, and I was a little nervous when dealing with the stinging liger, so I suddenly felt a little sleepy at this moment, so after eating, we
Let’s rest in Miao Fei’s restaurant for the entire afternoon, and then find a place to spend the night.”
Soon, Liu Xing and his wife arrived at a two-story restaurant owned by Miao Fei.
There is no way, the spending power of Philadelphia is not enough to turn the restaurant into a third floor.
Moreover, the banquet prepared by Miao Fei was also relatively ordinary. They were basically home-cooked dishes, but the cooking was more exquisite.
"Brother Yu, today's meal is a bit plain. I hope you can understand. After all, that's all the fresh ingredients you want to buy in a small place like Philadelphia."
Miao Fei picked up the wine glass and said: "However, there are so many farmlands in Fei City, so naturally some good wine can be brewed. So, Brother Yu, if you have nothing to do in the afternoon, just drink two more glasses. If you get drunk, go directly to the bar of my inn."
Just sleep in the font room, I have prepared everything for you."
"Then I'd rather be respectful than obey."
Yu Lei was not polite and directly picked up his wine glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Of course, the wine Miao Fei prepared for this banquet was the kind of rice wine that is very common in the real world. It was just filtered to a certain extent to make the rice wine look clearer.
It still tastes pretty good to drink.
Because he had to explore the river again in the afternoon, Liu Xing didn't drink much. He just took a sip while Miao Fei was toasting Yu Lei.
As a result, this banquet was also a feast for both the guest and the host.
Because the inn run by Miao Fei was right next to the restaurant, Yu Lei "flew" from the restaurant into the inn in one go. Liu Xing, after washing his face, went to find Dong Qing and others, but it was too late.
He hired a follower named Miao Shen.
Miao Shen is Miao Fei's nephew, a martial arts master who has just reached the third-rate level, and a fishing enthusiast.
Because he was worried about his own safety, Liu Xing pretended to accidentally mention at the banquet that he liked fishing, so he planned to follow the river to a nearby river to fish in the afternoon, so Miao Fei recommended his nephew to accompany him.
Of course, Miao Fei also took advantage of the opportunity to praise his nephew for his young talent and good talent, but he had not met a famous teacher in Fei City, so Yu Lei reciprocated and asked Miao Shen to follow him to Liangcheng to find a suitable teacher.
The teacher once again studied under him.
Under normal circumstances, various sects do not allow their disciples to turn around and worship the masters of other sects after they become disciples, unless the master's reputation in the world is very high and his martial arts is also very high.
But, those small sects that are not very powerful will not care about this, as long as you don't talk nonsense outside.
So Miao Shen brought a full set of equipment and also invited several of his fellow disciples to fish together.
So, Liu Xing took Dong Qing and Yang Qi, and then followed Miao Shen and others along the river to the mouth of the river.
Along the way, Liu Xing saw several more fishing nets floating on the water. Miao Shen mentioned that these fishing nets only appeared in the past month or two, but more importantly, no one recognized that these fishing nets were
It seems a little strange that I put it down, because it is not something shameful.
Hearing this, Liu Xing began to suspect that these fishing nets were actually related to Han Yu. Maybe Han Yu had discovered traces of the Hanyu crocodile, but he could not provide definite evidence to prove its existence, so he could only think of ways to do so.
Use these fishing nets to catch or stop Korean crocodiles.
Otherwise, Liu Xing couldn't think of anyone who would do this, and he wouldn't even admit that he did it.
However, Miao Shen also mentioned that he often comes here to fish with his friends, especially his brothers, because although his sect focuses on boxing and kicking, it also attaches great importance to eyesight, so he lets all his disciples go there.
When fishing, the float must be removed, and the hand cannot always hold the fishing rod. Therefore, Miao Shen and others must always watch the fishing line to distinguish whether the slight shaking of the fishing line is due to a fish taking the bait or a disturbance.
As for the apprenticeship examination of this sect, one of the most difficult tests is to ask the disciples to catch a fish, but the weight and type of the fish are regulated!
This requires disciples to be able to distinguish every shaking of the fishing line, which fish is frantically testing the edge of the hook, and what size range the fish is in.
It has to be said that after Liu Xing heard Miao Shen's conditions for joining the sect, he felt that he would never join this sect, because even a fisherman who has experienced many battles may not be able to achieve such conditions, not to mention the martial arts model this time.
The fish situation in the group is also quite special. It's not like a certain river or lake in the real world, where there are basically only a few types of fish.
For example, when Liu Xing was fishing in Tianshui Town, he would catch more than 20 kinds of fish every day, no matter how small they were, ranging from small fish weighing just a few taels to giant fish weighing dozens of kilograms.
So for Liu Xing to tell what kind of fish it is and how heavy it is through the shaking of the fishing line, he basically has to close his eyes and become enlightened.
However, along the way, Liu Xing also paid attention to the situation in the river, but naturally found nothing. Miao Shen also mentioned that he used this road to go fishing every now and then and never encountered anything special.
Except there seem to be fewer snakes in the nearby grass.
Because there are a lot of farmland near Philadelphia, some rice grains will eventually fall into the soil, so many birds will settle nearby. After all, there is a sufficient source of food here.
The result is that these rice fields attract a lot of birds, and these birds also attract a lot of predators, such as snakes!
So according to Miao Shen, when he used to walk this road, he would encounter at least two digits of snakes in one round trip, but now he can only encounter one or two. He doesn't know if these snakes have moved to the woods.
However, the number has really decreased.
By the way, the most famous specialty dish in Philadelphia today is called Long Feifeng Wu, which is a snake and several birds cooked in a pot.
This is called the food chain.
When Liu Xing and others arrived at the mouth of the river, they did encounter a snake that was dizzy from the heat. It seemed to be preparing to take a bath in the river, but was caught by Miao Shen.
"If there is any specialty in Philadelphia, it would be the snake gall wine that is very good. There are all kinds of snakes around, and there is a lot of food in Philadelphia, so the snake gall wine brewed is also quite good."
As soon as Miao Shen finished speaking, another sentence suddenly appeared in Liu Xing's mind.
"Congratulations to the player for triggering the supply task - snake bile wine! Currently, a certain NPC is purchasing a large amount of snake bile wine at a high price. If the player can contact the NPC, he or she will be able to obtain a large amount of rewards."
"Remarks: This NPC may appear anywhere, so players are asked to consider whether to accept this supply task at their discretion, because after accepting this supply task, if you fail to complete this task, you will not be able to accept other supply tasks."
Supply tasks?
Liu Xing has been in the Cthulhu Game Hall for so many years, but he has never heard of any supply missions.
However, as the name suggests, this task is to supply a large amount of a certain item to an NPC in order to obtain a corresponding reward. This reminds Liu Xing of a common task in some martial arts online games, that is, the player transfers certain items to
Give it to the NPC.
So this kind of mission is still very reasonable in this martial arts module.
But, the problem is that the NPC who wants to buy the snake bile wine is not yet known where, so who knows if he will have the chance to complete this task before the end of this martial arts module.
So Liu Xing still chose to refuse this task and planned to wait until he found this NPC.
After arriving at the mouth of the river, Liu Xing and Yang Qi took their fishing rods and found a suitable place to start fishing. Miao Shen and others also consciously kept a certain distance from Liu Xing and the others.
"Although some things happened near the river, we still can't be sure that these things are related to the Korean crocodile, and it seems that the Korean crocodile has never touched anyone."
