But what makes Liu Xing feel a little strange is why the side mission related to the black cat demon has not been triggered so far?
Is there any other important content about this black cat demon that has not been unearthed?
After everyone rested on the third floor for an hour, they came to the first floor together.
Except for Li Dian who stayed to assist Hu Cang in order to gain Hu Cang's trust, the others were ready to continue visiting Panlong Town.
Of course, before leaving, Zhang Jingxu did not forget to ask Hu Cang about the specific location of the teahouse opened by Xiao Mochen.
Liu Xing noticed that when Hu Cang heard the name Xiao Mochen, he couldn't help but frown, and there was a hint of entanglement and helplessness in his eyes. It seemed that the relationship between Hu Cang and Xiao Mochen was not simple.
After Zhang Jingxu chatted with Hu Cang for a while, he greeted everyone to leave the clinic, and then said to Liu Xing and Ishi Chuanling: "That Xiao Mochen is indeed Hu Cang's good friend since childhood, and he once lived in Hu Cang
Next door, but later because Xiao Mochen went to Rongcheng to work, the relationship between the two became cold. More than two years ago, Xiao Mochen returned to Panlong Town and opened a teahouse. By the way, Xiao Mochen
His original name is Xiao Yong, and his nickname is Goudan.”
Liu Xing raised his eyebrows. Unexpectedly, Xiao Mochen was actually called Goudan. Liu Xing couldn't help but think of Dogo Egg from the previous module. He wondered how Dogo Egg was doing in the Fisherman Village now.
Xiao Mochen's teahouse was not far away. Liu Xing and his party walked more than 20 meters to the left and found the teahouse opened by Xiao Mochen.
Just as Liu Xing thought, as soon as he walked to the door of Xiao Mochen's teahouse, he heard the sound of playing mahjong from inside.
At this time, Xiao Mochen was sitting on a lounge chair at the door, basking in the sun, with a teacup next to him.
Seeing the arrival of Liu Xing and others, Xiao Mochen stood up with a smile and said: "Hey, you are here, please come in."
Xiao Mochen's teahouse was well decorated, with the mahjong area and the tea drinking area separated, so Liu Xing and others were arranged to the tea drinking area. Xiao Mochen personally served tea and water to Liu Xing and others.
Zhang Jingxu once again turned on his real-time translation function.
After placing the melon seeds and peanuts, Xiao Mochen sat down and said: "There are no entertainment venues in Panlong Town. Apart from the black Internet cafe next to the junior high school, my teahouse is the only place to kill time. Everyone, you can
Come and sit in my teahouse anytime."
Wan Zhongshan nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, I like to play mahjong. I wonder if Brother Xiao can help me find some suitable people to play with."
Xiao Mochen laughed and said, "Don't call me Brother Xiao. I'm only twenty-one years old now. Brother Wan, you are older than me no matter how you look at it, so Brother Wan, you should just call me Brother Xiao."
, As for Brother Wan, if you want to play mahjong, of course there is no problem. We in Panlong Town dare not say anything else, but there are more than one person who can play mahjong, but most of these people who play mahjong are old men and old ladies, so there is no problem.
I can only earn one dollar and fifty cents, Brother Wan, don’t be too small.”
Seeing that the time was ripe, Wan Zhongshan cut to the chase and said, "Of course there is no problem with that. I was just here to kill time, and I didn't intend to make money by playing mahjong. But I wonder, brother Xiao, if you know how to play mahjong?"
Xiao Mochen was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Of course, in our land of Bashu, almost everyone can play mahjong, so naturally I can also play mahjong, and I dared to do so when I was twelve years old.
Let’s go to the table and play mahjong with the adults.”
Wan Zhongshan nodded, patted Xiao Mochen's shoulder and said, "Well, how about you, brother Xiao, come and play mahjong with me? After all, I need you to introduce me to other mahjong players."
Hearing what Wan Zhongshan said, Xiao Mochen began to look a little hesitant and confused.
Obviously, Xiao Mochen didn't really want to play mahjong.
At this time, Wan Zhongshan decided to use the challenge method, pretending to be surprised and said: "Brother Xiao, don't tell me that you, the owner of the teahouse, don't even play mahjong. Or, brother Xiao, don't you want to play mahjong with me?
?”
When Wan Zhongshan said this, Xiao Mochen said helplessly: "How should I put it? Of course I want to play mahjong with you, Brother Wan, but my wife doesn't like me playing mahjong, so Brother Wan, you should also know
Yes, rake ears are abundant here..."
Raking one's ears means keeping one's wife in check.
When Wan Zhongshan heard what Xiao Mochen said, he couldn't help but be stunned. For a moment, he didn't know how to continue to persuade Xiao Mochen to play mahjong with him.
However, Zhang Jingxu immediately made up his mind and said: "This is not a big problem. Brother Xiao, if your wife comes later, just say that we forced you to play mahjong with us. I believe your wife will understand you."
."
Wan Zhongshan also reacted at this time, nodded immediately and said: "Yes, we will definitely cover for you, Brother Xiao, and I can see that Brother Xiao, you also want to play mahjong now."
When Xiao Mochen heard Zhang Jingxu and Wan Zhongshan sing along like this, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, then I will sacrifice my life to accompany the gentleman and play mahjong with you today, but don't betray me."
As a result, Wan Zhongshan took Xiao Mochen to find a mahjong table to sit down, while Liu Xing and the other two people, after drinking tea for a while, planned to leave the teahouse and continue to wander around Panlong Town.
Just when Liu Xing and others were about to get up and leave the teahouse, they saw a middle-aged man with a sinister look walk into the teahouse, then approached Xiao Mochen and said something with a playful smile.
Zhang Jingxu frowned and whispered: "That middle-aged man seems to be Xiao Mochen's father, and he came to Xiao Mochen to ask for money, but it seems that the relationship between Xiao Mochen and his father is not good."
Liu Xing nodded. Even if he didn't know what Xiao Mochen was talking to his father, judging from Xiao Mochen's expression and tone, Xiao Mochen hated his father, and the people playing mahjong around him
It's a habitual look.
In the end, Xiao Mochen, who couldn't bear the disturbance, could only take out a few hundred yuan from his pocket and handed it to his father, and then Xiao Mochen's father left the teahouse with a smile.
"Let's go, let's follow Xiao Mochen's father. I think there's something wrong with Xiao Mochen's father. Let's go see what he wants to do with the money." Liu Xing's God of Death said.
From the first moment Liu Xing saw Xiao Mochen's father, Liu Xing was sure that Xiao Mochen's father was a drug addict, because Xiao Mochen's father was sallow, skinny, weak in limbs, and had blurry eyes, which was very consistent with drug addiction.
Characteristics of a gentleman.
The most important thing is that in the Cthulhu Run game, there is a lot of information on the addict NPC, and it can be easily obtained by spending a certain amount of money. If necessary, you can also spend money directly.
Let the addict NPC work for you.
Therefore, Liu Xing felt that he should be able to learn the secret of the black dragon from Xiao Mochen's father, and the reason why Xiao Mochen and Hu Cang didn't mention a word about the black dragon.
As a result, Liu Xing and the others left the teahouse and secretly followed Xiao Mochen's father.
Xiao Mochen's father didn't go far and entered a small supermarket.
Liu Xing and the others quickly followed him into the small supermarket, pretending to buy water and cigarettes, but found no trace of Xiao Mochen's father.
This small supermarket is not large, with only four shelves, and there is basically no place to hide people. However, there is a door next to the cashier. It seems that Xiao Mochen's father must have gone in.
Liu Xing and others definitely had no way to get in now, so they had no choice but to finish shopping and leave the small supermarket.
By coincidence, when Liu Xing came out of the small supermarket, he discovered that the opposite side was Panlong Town Primary School. Because it was almost time to go to school, many primary school students wearing red scarves were entering the school.
But what makes Liu Xing feel a little weird is that the gate of Panlong Town Primary School is a vermilion arch dotted with some white patterns, so the overall gate of Panlong Town looks like a bloody mouth.
Because there was a teacher on duty at the school gate, Liu Xing and others could not enter Panlong Town Primary School, so Liu Xing and others could only continue walking along the street.
After walking a few steps, Zhang Jingxu stopped and said, "I didn't expect that there is a health center next to the elementary school."
Liu Xing turned around and saw that the Panlong Town Health Center was a single-family two-story building, covering an area of only about sixty or seventy square meters, and it looked quite old, because the walls of the health center were not tiled.
It was just coated with a layer of cement, so now the interior red bricks are exposed in some places, and the windows are all old-fashioned wooden frame windows that push outwards.
"This health center looks a little too old, or in other words, the buildings in Panlong Town are very old along the way." Ishikawa Ling said with a frown.
Liu Xing thought about it carefully, and as Ishikawa Ling said, the buildings in Panlong Town are indeed a bit old. Logically speaking, Panlong Town is close to Rongcheng. Even if it is not very wealthy, it should be at the level of a well-off society.
Therefore, it stands to reason that the buildings in Panlong Town should not be so old, and after all, there should be one or two relatively new buildings.
Could it be that Panlong Town was turned into an independent space by a powerful being a long time ago, so the buildings in Panlong Town have not been renovated or rebuilt over the years?
But according to Hu Cang, Xiao Mochen returned to Panlong Town more than two years ago, so the time does not match up, unless Xiao Mochen entered Panlong Town by accident like his group.
At this time, Zhang Jingxu asked Ishikawa Ling: "Ishikawa Ling, generally speaking, what are the internal natural rules of an independent space, such as whether the wall will still be affected by weathering?"
Ishikawa Ling thought for a while, nodded and said: "If the person who established this independent space did not modify the internal rules of this independent space, then the internal rules of this independent space would remain the same, so the buildings in Panlong Town will continue to age.
."
"I see, then there is another question. If Panlong Town quietly becomes an independent space, then the residents of Panlong Town should be able to detect the anomalies in Panlong Town." Zhang Jingxu continued to ask.
This question was a bit sharp. Ishikawa Ling couldn't help but ponder for a while before giving his own answer, "It still depends on what the creator of this independent space thinks. If he is willing, the residents in the independent space will not
You will find yourself trapped in it, because since you have the power to create an independent space, you can hypnotize the residents in the independent space at will, so that their scope of activities will always be limited to the scope of the independent space."
I see.
Since Liu Xing and the others were not sick now, there was no reason to enter the health center, so Liu Xing and the others continued to move forward.
After walking about fifty meters, there were fewer and fewer buildings on both sides of the street, and it seemed that we were almost reaching the river.
Sure enough, Liu Xing saw the bridge that Hu Cang said was affected by the mudslide. A section of the road leading to the bridge had been completely covered by the mudslide, forming a pile of dirt nearly two meters high. Although people only need to be careful
It passed, but it was completely impassable to vehicles.
At this moment, Liu Xing heard a scream... but it was from a pig.
Obviously, the single-story bungalow not far ahead is the pig killing farm in Panlong Town.
But again, since there was no reason to go to the pig killing farm, Liu Xing and others had no way of entering the pig killing farm to find out what was going on, so they had to return the way they came.
Returning to the nearest fork in the road, Liu Xing and others chose a new road.
Soon, Liu Xing and others discovered Panlong Town Junior High School.
Panlong Town Junior High School is backed by the Panlong River, and its area is not too large. After all, township-level junior high schools generally do not have many students, because most of the students in the townships are sent to the county.
Therefore, Panlong Town Junior High School looks a little deserted, or in other words, there is no sound at all.
etc.
Liu Xing listened carefully and found that there was really no sound at all in Panlong Town Junior High School, which was very abnormal.
Liu Xing took out his cell phone and looked at it. Today was a Tuesday, and there was no holiday. Moreover, it was already half past two, so logically speaking, he should be in class.
Liu Xing frowned and told Ishikawa Ling and Zhang Jingxu what he thought.
"How about we go over and take a look?" Ishikawa Ling said.
Ever since, Liu Xing and the others walked to the gate of Panlong Town Junior High School. What surprised Liu Xing and the others was that Panlong Town Junior High School did not have a gate, and through the gate they could see the teaching building of Panlong Town Junior High School. The doors and windows had been seriously damaged.
There are even no doors or windows left.
It seems that Panlong Town Junior High School has been abandoned.
Liu Xing frowned and said, "What is going on?"
Zhang Jingxu shrugged and said with a smile: "It should be that Panlong Town Junior High School has been abandoned. After all, it is right next to Rongcheng. All the junior high school students in Panlong Town should have gone to Chengdu to study."
