Fortunately, those snake people also knew that the vitality of Director Li and other humans was very important to Star Color, so these snake people hoarded a lot of food and medicine in their lair to prevent Director Li and others from dying of hunger and disease.
Although Liu Xing and his party were worried that Xing Zhicai would return here at any time, Liu Xing and his party could not help Director Li and others, so after Ding Kun took the key and opened the prison door, Liu Xing and his party
They continued to carry food and drinking water to the prison and distribute it to Director Li and others, because now Director Li and others were so hungry that they really could not stand up.
Taking a break from his busy schedule, Liu Xing checked his phone and found that only three hours had passed since his group entered Tailai Village.
According to Liu Xing’s understanding of the Cthulhu Run Game Hall, Liu Xing knew very well that given the extremely difficult difficulty of this module, his group would have to meet the Star Color at least twice within these three hours.
Face, and now there is no snake man who can divert the attention of the Star Color.
Of course, he and his team can delay time by abandoning Director Li and others, but this is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.
So how to break the situation?
Liu Xing couldn't help but frown, because Liu Xing really couldn't think of any way to stop Xing Zhicai, even if it was just a low-end version of Xing Zhicai.
At this moment, a pleasant female voice sounded in Liu Xing's ears, "Are you Liu Xing?"
Liu Xing looked around and saw a beautiful young woman.
For some reason, Liu Xing always felt that this woman looked familiar.
But Liu Xing knew the name of this woman - Yang Xuanzhu, because Liu Xing had already seen Yang Xuanzhu's photo.
Before Liu Xing could speak, Yang Xuanzhu continued: "Sure enough, like Liu Qindong, you have long forgotten about me, an old classmate."
old classmate?
Fortunately, this was in the Cthulhu Running Game Hall, so Liu Xing could retrieve his memories by searching for keywords. Therefore, Liu Xing soon discovered that Yang Xuanzhu was actually his elementary school classmate, but because
Yang Xuanzhu changed schools and left when she was in the fourth grade of elementary school, so Liu Xing had long forgotten about Yang Xuanzhu, an old classmate.
And if Liu Xing remembers correctly, Yang Xuanzhu had a good relationship with Liu Qindong before?
Liu Xing touched the back of his head and said with some embarrassment: "Well, I remembered it now, Yang Xuanzhu, didn't you transfer to another school when you were in the fourth grade, so I really didn't think of you for a while.
Come, classmates."
Yang Xuanzhu smiled reluctantly, sighed and said: "It's okay, if I hadn't met Liu Qindong, I wouldn't be able to remember your name Liu Xing now. After all, it's been more than ten years, and I
I really didn’t expect that we would meet under such circumstances.”
Liu Xing sighed and said with a wry smile: "Yeah, I didn't expect that our old classmates would meet in a place like this, and we belong to three different camps... So, Yang Xuanzhu, can you give me
Can I tell you what this is all about?"
"Do you just believe me?" Yang Xuanzhu asked.
Liu Xing nodded and said seriously: "I went to your old house before coming here and found that Liu Qindong may have taken away a very important thing from your house, and if nothing else, this thing is the cause of all this.
The culprit."
Yang Xuanzhu sighed again, nodded and said: "Yes, it was that thing that caused all these incidents to happen; I believe you have also found out the false identity my grandfather used..."
Ten minutes later, Liu Xing finally learned the cause and effect of all this from Yang Xuanzhu.
Yang Xuanzhu's grandfather's real name is Yang Dacai. He was born in an ordinary peasant family in Yundian. When he was more than ten years old, his father sent him to a blacksmith shop in a nearby town as an apprentice.
Because it was the time when people were going to the mountains and countryside, many students came to the town where Yang Dacai was located, and those students happened to live next door to Yang Dacai.
Everything is of inferior quality, but reading is of high quality.
Yang Dacai has envied scholars since he was a child, so Yang Dacai was very envious of the students living next door to him, and those students also had a good impression of the honest and honest Yang Dacai, so Yang Dacai quickly became good friends with those students, and when those students were free
He will also teach Yang Dacai how to read and write.
In this way, Yang Dacai met his wife Luo Hui, and the two soon fell in love.
However, because Luo Hui was born in a scholarly family, Yang Dacai always had a sense of inferiority after falling in love with Luo Hui, feeling that he was not worthy of Luo Hui.
Just when Yang Dacai was hesitating whether to break up with Luo Hui, Luo Hui's classmate Yang An found Yang Dacai.
Yang An was born in a tea merchant family in Yundian, so his parents would often take advantage of delivery opportunities to bring some things to Yang An. Yang An was also a person with a generous temperament, so every time there was something good, Yang An would
Take it out and share it with your friends, including Yang Dacai of course, and because they have the same surname, Yang An always calls Yang Dacai brother.
One night, Yang An came to Yang Dacai with a bottle of wine, and the two chatted while drinking. The drunk Yang Dacai couldn't help but reveal his thoughts.
After Yang An learned of Yang Dacai's idea, he proposed that Yang Dacai go to his tea shop to help, so that Yang Dacai could save a lot of money every year and would not be broke to propose marriage to Luo Hui's family.
After all, being an apprentice in those days didn't pay you any wages.
Yang Dacai thought this was a solution, so he joined Yang An's tea shop as a waiter. With Yang An's help, Yang Dacai soon became the middle-level leader of the tea shop, and his monthly income was pretty good. This made Yang Dacai
With the confidence to be with Luo Hui, Yang Dacai, who became confident, finally grew up with Luo Hui.
Ever since, Luo Hui became pregnant.
In that era, it was a serious matter to get pregnant out of wedlock, so Yang Dacai went to Luo Hui's family to propose marriage. As a result, Luo Hui's parents still looked down on Yang Dacai and felt that Yang Dacai was not worthy of their daughter. However, considering their daughter's reputation,
Luo Hui's parents finally agreed to Yang Dacai's marriage proposal, but they asked Yang Dacai to hold a well-attended wedding in the provincial capital.
Although Yang Dacai had saved a lot of money over the years, the conditions for satisfying Luo Hui's parents were still insufficient, so Yang Dacai approached Yang An to borrow money.
As a good friend of Yang Dacai, Yang An naturally agreed to Yang Dacai's request. However, because Yang An did not bring so much money with him, he asked Yang Dacai to go to his house to get the money the next day. As a result, Yang Dacai came to Yang An's house the next day.
, discovered that Yang An’s family had been wiped out!
But next to Yang An's body, Yang Da saw two numbers - 48.
Of course Yang Dacai knew the meaning of "48" - Tai Lai Village.
Yang An's tea shop business is very prosperous, and there are purchasers in major cities throughout the southwest region. For the convenience of accounting, Yang An numbers the addresses of purchasers, and 48 is the number of Tailai Village.
However, Yang Dacai has always been curious about why there are purchasers in a village, knowing that other purchasers are at least county level.
Faced with Yang Dacai's doubts, Yang An always smiled and said nothing.
Just when Yang Dacai was thinking that Yang An would leave the clue "48" before the accident, a passerby smelled a strong smell of blood and saw Yang Dacai standing at the scene of the murder.
The next plot is very cliche. Yang Dacai panicked after the passers-by screamed, so he subconsciously chose to run away. As a result, Yang Dacai was naturally regarded as the murderer of the Yang family's massacre, because he only found the murderer at the scene.
Yang Dacai is the footprints of an outsider!
After realizing that something was wrong, Yang Dacai had no choice but to flee to Tailai Village overnight, because Yang Dacai knew that Yang An could not leave useless clues before he died.
Ever since, Yang Dacai entered Tailai Village under the pseudonym Yang An, and soon met the "purchaser" of Tailai Village, Yang Dacai's first "wife" Liu Min.
From Liu Min's mouth, Yang Dacai learned the reason why Yang An's family was exterminated.
It turns out that Yang An's family is a tea merchant on the surface, but in fact it is a talisman paper shop, and they only sell one kind of talisman - sealing talisman - from hundreds of years ago.
Every time Liu Min purchases goods from Yang An's family, she buys this kind of sealing talisman, because Liu Min's family has a bottle that has been passed down from generation to generation, and this bottle seals a terrifying mythical creature-the Color of Stars!
Of course, neither Liu Min nor Yang Dacai knew at the time that the bottle contained the Star Color in its embryonic state. They only knew that once the seal of the bottle was lifted, a terrifying mythical creature would be released!
So after learning that there would be no sealing talisman in the future, Liu Min made a difficult decision, that is, to use his own life to strengthen the seal on the bottle, and then let Yang Dacai continue to guard the bottle.
In order for Yang Dacai to gain a foothold in Tailai Village, Yang Dacai and Liu Min had to fake their marriage.
Not long after the marriage, Liu Min, who was well prepared, used her own life to strengthen the seal of the bottle, and also set up a formation near her home to prevent some mythical creatures of average strength from entering.
What happened next was as Liu Xing and others knew. Yang Dacai couldn't help but go to Yundian to pick up Luo Hui and his son. At the same time, those snake people also came to Yingzui Mountain, and those snake people knew for some reason.
After noticing the existence of the bottle, he began to try to snatch the bottle away, but of course he failed.
Fast forward to some time ago, Yang Xuanzhu met Liu Qindong by chance, and quickly accepted Liu Qindong's pursuit, because Yang Xuanzhu had a very good relationship with Liu Qindong when they were in elementary school... Of course, Liu Qindong is handsome and a very good person.
important decisive factor.
When it came to Yang Dacai's birthday party, Yang Xuanzhu originally did not plan to take Liu Qindong with her. After all, she had only been dating Liu Qindong for a few days, and she did not tell Liu Qindong about it. As a result, Liu Qindong proposed to Yang Xuanzhu by "coincidence", and she was deeply moved.
After accepting the proposal, Yang Xuanzhu was moved and decided to take Liu Qindong to meet his parents.
Because the new uncle came to visit, Yang Xuanzhu's family members had to drink two more drinks. Therefore, when Liu Qindong excused himself to go to the toilet, no one noticed Liu Qindong walking into the blacksmith shop.
Then when Liu Qindong walked out with the bottle, a group of snake men suddenly came out from the side and instantly controlled everyone present!
What happened next was just as Liu Xing and others had guessed. Liu Qindong planned to turn Tailai Village into Fengmen Village in Shu, in order to attract those anchors and tourists who like to commit suicide to become the "reserve food" of Star Color. As a result,
Within two days, I met Liu Xing and others.
"By the way Liu Xing, I personally feel that those snake people seem to listen to Liu Qindong." Yang Xuanzhu said at the end.
Liu Xing nodded and winked at Ding Kun and others beside him.
It's time to use the last secret room.
After making arrangements for Yang Xuanzhu and others, Liu Xing and his party gathered in the square to start the secret room time.
"Liu Xing, how credible do you think Yang Xuanzhu's words are?" Ding Kun asked first.
Liu Xing thought for a while and said seriously: "Eighty percent, I have been observing Yang Xuanzhu when she was talking, and I also applied to kp for psychological confrontation, but was directly rejected by kp, so I am even more
I tend to believe Yang Xuanzhu."
At this time, Zhang Wenbing suddenly said: "I seem to have heard about the murder case of Yang An's family, because the police investigating the case at that time found a large number of talisman papers in Yang An's house, so they invited local Huaxia Taoist members to participate in the investigation, and found that the murderers
The person who killed Yang An's family was actually Yang An, or Yang An who was controlled, so the local police did not continue to pursue Yang Dacai. However, due to the lack of clues for investigation, the case was eventually shelved."
"In that case, the one who controls Yang An must also be a snake man, right?" Ding Kun frowned and said, "But what I'm more curious about now is who has the ability to seal the embryonic star color in a bottle
?!"
This question is also what Liu Xing wants to ask.
In Liu Xing's impression, even the Old Ones may not be able to do anything to the Star Color, even if it is in an embryonic state... unless it is an Old One who is extremely good at magic.
But why did this Great Old One seal an embryonic Star Color and hand over the sealed Star Color to a human family for safekeeping?!
This is when a familiar name appeared in Liu Xing's mind - Nyarlathotep.
Apart from Nyarlathotep, Liu Xing really couldn't imagine that other "people" would do such inexplicable things.
Liu Xing exchanged glances with Zhang Jingxu and others, and found that everyone believed that Nyarlathotep had to shoulder the blame.
After reaching a consensus, Liu Xing said: "Judging from the current situation, those snake people should have known the existence of that bottle a long time ago, and also knew what was in the bottle, but why did they kill Yang An first?"
Where is the family? Did those snake people just want to release the star color at the beginning?"
