The bamboo forest is a magical place. In any costume drama, no matter whether it is a martial arts drama or a palace fight, if you don't see the bamboo forest scenery, you would be embarrassed to say that it was filmed by a flower grower. Therefore, in ancient times, the grassy rivers and lakes were also called green forest heroes. I think
It makes sense when I think about it.
However, the Gao sisters were not in the mood to appreciate this weird beauty, "Sister, did we arrive too late? That saint-seeker has already left!"
Gao Wen's face was also ugly. This bamboo forest looked so lush that you couldn't even see the outside edge. Coupled with the late morning weather, the entire bamboo forest looked gloomy. Of course, for players, no matter how eerie the environment is,
It's just a novel experience, but what makes Gao Wen a little unhappy is that this neighborhood doesn't look like someone is living in it! Is it possible that the saint-seeker has really left?
"Let's look for any clues first. Go to the sky and take a look to see if you can find a way out. As long as you fly high enough, you can probably still see the edge." Gao Wen pointed to the sky helplessly.
Gao Wu nodded and directly stepped on the magic book and began to rise. It only took a moment before he flew back in frustration. "Sister, we are in a basin surrounded by mountains. The bamboo forest is huge and the mountains are so high that they reach into the clouds.
went."
Gao Wen frowned, which meant that he couldn't find a way out easily. He thought for a while and said: "Anyway, this statue of Guan Gong led us here. There must be something mysterious in this bamboo forest. Let's look for it!"
"Uh...how to find it?"
"Look for it with your eyes, well, you can also use your ears or beard."
"It's not like you're looking for a mouse hole!" (=｀w′=)
Gao Wen no longer teased Gao Wu, but sat carelessly on the ground. In fact, when Gao Wu flew into the sky to find a way out, she had already discovered something was wrong. She closed her eyes and felt it for a while, then she was sure.
Gently picking up a bamboo leaf from the ground, a breeze carried the bamboo leaf to the ground not far away. Gao Wen walked a few steps to another place, then picked up a bamboo leaf and let it go. The magical thing was that the bamboo leaf fell to the ground not far away.
The leaves are actually getting closer to the bamboo leaves just now!
"Huh? That's weird." Gao Wu was not stupid and discovered the problem in an instant.
According to common sense, although the direction of the wind is always changing, there is always a general direction, but it is different in the bamboo forest. All the winds are converging towards one place, just like a whirlpool exists deep in the bamboo forest.
The wind from all around is converging there. However, the wind is not strong, and you won't even notice it if the leaves are not far away.
"Let's go, let's follow the wind and be a woman like the wind!" Gao Wen laughed loudly.
"She must be a crazy woman!" Gao Wu was helplessly picked up by her sister and muttered in a timid voice.
Gao Wen didn't care about his sister's complaints, he just kept throwing bamboo leaves happily, and the floating direction again and again guided them to the outside of a palace. This was a very... strange palace, the whole seemed to be made of obsidian.
, the color tone is very solemn and mysterious.
"Hiss! Ancient Egyptian sphinx, Olympus mythical statue, Mayan pyramid, African witchcraft doll, Indian totem, what the hell kind of style is this? The people living in this palace... must not be
Ordinary people!"
Gao Wen covered her face and complained, suddenly having some doubts, whether she shouldn't come, this saint contender is not very reliable!
Gao Wu walked slowly towards the palace with cat steps, and wiped on the two stone lions at the gate, "Sister, there is a lot of dust here, it must have been abandoned for a long time!"
Gao Wen raised his eyebrows. Since he was here, he always needed to go in and take a look. He thought about entering the palace. Well, the palace seemed to be completely open all around. There was not even a door. No wonder the wind was blowing everywhere...
Different from the random mix and match of styles outside, the first thing you notice when entering the palace is the rows of weapon racks!
"It seems that the owner of this palace is a martial arts fanatic. This weapon is really complete. Well, the names of the weapons are very complete." Gao Wu sighed helplessly.
The names are complete, because there is not a single weapon on the weapon racks that fill the entire palace, but the names of various weapons are written on each rack with clear labels. From the simplest swords, guns, swords, halberds, axes, hooks and forks to
There are more complex shark tooth swords, parting hooks, overlord spears, jasper swords, sentimental rings, Yitian swords, snow drinking mad swords, Qingsuo swords, purple Ying swords, and even various hidden weapons such as rainstorm pear needles and peacock feathers!
"Well, this label is made with great care. The handwriting is bold and bold, and the pen is so powerful that the material is printed on the shelf." Gao Wen nodded to express his approval of these labels. However, it was of no use. Just writing a name.
Who can't? I can use plasticine to make an Oscar-winning actress!
"Sister, look up there, it's so beautiful!" Gao Wu stretched out his paws and pointed directly at the ceiling.
Gao Wen looked up in a daze, her eyes suddenly filled with starlight, and the stars in the sky were reflected on the ceiling in a mysterious arrangement. If she had not known from the outside that the palace had a roof, she would have thought that the palace was completely covered with roofs.
Open air.
“This ceiling is quite interesting!”
"I'm going to explore the way up there." Gao Wu flew up to the ceiling with a hiss, then waved his little paw and said with a smile: "Sister, these are all virtual images, not real."
Gao Wen wasn't surprised when he heard this. He looked around and saw that the palace was actually not that big. It was a little smaller than a football field. However, even a small palace built in such an inhospitable place would still make people feel...
unexpected.
Time passed little by little, and the two sisters walked around for several times but found nothing special, not even an old hen that could gain experience.
"Could it be that these labels are the key?" Gao Wen rubbed her chin and was undecided for a moment.
At this moment, Gao Wu's cry came from not far away. Gao Wen frowned and ran to Gao Wu's side, only to see the label 'Qinglong Yanyue Sword' written on the shelf in front of her!
Gao Wen and Gao Wu looked at each other spiritually, then reached out and placed the Qinglong Yanyue Sword flat on the shelf. Buzz! A muffled sound accompanied by a dazzling white light burst out from behind. The surrounding airflow began to accelerate instantly, and Gao Wen turned around and saw only one
The shining portal suddenly appeared in front of me.
"So this is how the mechanism is opened!" Gao Wu suddenly realized, and then looked at the densely packed labels on the left and right, "Here I go! Sister, can't all these weapons open the portal? This is... a transportation hub?
"
Gao Wen rolled his eyes, picked up the back of Gao Wu's neck, picked up the Qinglong Yanyue Sword, and walked in. Then the white light flashed again, the door was closed, and the entire hall fell into deathly silence again.
…
Gao Wen has fantasized about a lot of things about the unknown saint seeker. In her mind, although this saint seeker hidden in the historical mission line may have a human appearance, due to the actual racial differences, it must be very different, maybe just like Xing Ye played
The difference between the Tang Bohu and the real Tang Bohu is the same. Although she doesn't know what the real Tang Bohu is like, she stubbornly feels that she is the truth.
However, when she stepped through the portal and saw the target, her imagination was overturned!
"You... okay, I didn't disturb you, right?" Gao Wen smiled and waved to say hello.
This side of the portal is no longer a hybrid-style palace. Instead, it is an antique small courtyard. In the center of the courtyard is a lush tree that grows to a height of seven or eight meters. Under the tree are bamboo lounge chairs and small tables.
, there is also a vegetable field that is obviously home-grown, and green shoots are stubbornly protruding from the vegetable field.
It felt like... one moment I was in the urban-rural fringe, and the next moment I was really back in the countryside! And the person I was greeting was sitting on a chair.
This is a middle-aged man, wearing a black loose robe, with one foot crossed and one foot on the ground. He is holding a bowl of noodles and sucking it into his mouth. This middle-aged man cannot be called handsome, but he looks very handsome.
There is aura, yes, there is aura. This feeling is very wonderful. To sum up, I can confirm that he is an interesting person.
At this time, the man was obviously a little surprised. He looked at Gao Wen Gao Wu with wide eyes, but he kept talking. Hearing Gao Wen's greeting, he nodded and put down the noodle bowl, "I thought no one would come.
Unexpectedly...are you still used to using that big sword? Judging from your size, a weapon of this size cannot be used with perfect power!"
Gao Wen was overjoyed and saw her weapon at a glance. Needless to say, this must be the target she was looking for. Well, is this a test? You have to answer it seriously!
"No, my strength is not small, and with the help of my true energy, I can still use this knife very smoothly!"
"That's so easy!" The middle-aged man stunned Gao Wen with just one sentence, "Based on your height and wingspan, even if you are strong enough to effectively exert the power of the sword when you swing it, the area will be relatively small.
Shrink. Of course, you can adapt and change artificially, but not to mention the time it takes, just the changed usage of the sword will inevitably lose its majestic power. If you use a good sword, you will be able to use it in a strange way.
Weapons!"
Gao Wen blinked in confusion. Do you think this person has such a temper?
Before the middle-aged man finished speaking, he picked up the noodle bowl again and hummed: "Even if you don't believe in metaphysics, you should believe in science, but don't believe in animation or those nonsense on TV. What luoli is there?
There is absolutely no scientific basis for this kind of thing!"
Gao Wen smiled bitterly, how could he become illiterate in the blink of an eye? He coughed helplessly, "Actually... I'm just an actor!"
The middle-aged man nodded when he heard this, and hummed as if he was dissatisfied: "Okay, after all, you are quite honest, and you are not pretending to be a top student. Tell me, how did you think of answering the call?"
Gao Wen couldn't laugh or cry for a while, "Didn't you summon me here?"
The middle-aged man curled his lips and sighed: "The summons you mentioned actually stopped a year ago."
Gao Wen was stunned for a moment and had a bad feeling, "You gave up?"
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes, "To be precise, the previous saint-seeker gave up. How should I put it? He is completely disappointed in you!"
"Do you mind talking about it in detail?" Gao Wen asked with a wry smile.
The middle-aged man shrugged and didn't avoid anything, "There's no point telling you who he is now. You just need to know that he was quite concerned about this matter, but who knew he would show up in the first session?
The problem is, you players have not responded to his call for a long time, and there is no one looking for him. As time went by, he lost patience and simply gave up. After he left, the system had already created a connection to the task.
It is difficult to cancel the channel, so he connected the channel to me. If a player really comes to find him, I will send him away."
"Dismiss?" Gao Wen's expression became even worse. Could it be that his journey to become stronger was about to end before it even started? When Gao Wu heard this, he nuzzled Gao Wen's trousers in comfort.
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "You don't have to be too disappointed. According to the rules of the system, since the mission has been issued and the players have met the criteria for receiving rewards, the players will not be left empty-handed. Since he has sent the portal
If you received it from me, then naturally you would get a reward from me. Well, but because you players didn't take it seriously, that guy only left a reward in revenge."
Gao Wen was overjoyed when he heard this, but he hesitated when he saw the weird smile on the middle-aged man's face. Is this... a trap? "Do you mind asking, is it because the fight for sainthood is so important because there hasn't been one in a few years?
He gives up when people respond? Isn’t that too hasty!”
The middle-aged man chuckled, "Do you know how long he has been preparing for this task? And what measures have he prepared?"
Gao Wen opened his mouth, and the middle-aged man interrupted directly: "He was very picky at first. He felt that those who could learn from him must be among the best, so he buried the task clues in the hands of various celebrities in the history line.
Just like the Qinglong Yanyue Sword in your hand, Lu Bu's Fangtian Painted Halberd, Zhao Yun's bright silver spear, Huo Qubing's spear, Yue Fei's spear, and even Li Yunlong's Italian cannon also meet the conditions for his summons!"
Gao Wen had no excuse, and suddenly she didn't know how to complain. She always felt that something weird was mixed in.
The middle-aged man then added: "Later, when he saw no one responded, he lowered his standards again. What about Fengyun's peerless swords like Xue Yin Kuang Dao, Yi Tian Sword and Dragon Slaying Dao, and Qing Suo Sword and Zi Ying Sword?
kind."
Gao Wen was a little surprised. It turned out that in the eyes of the saint contender, these weapons were inferior choices. By the way, the saint contender knew the culture of the flower growers quite well.
The middle-aged man ignored Gao Wen's shock and said with a smile: "Who knows, no one will respond to his call. In the end, this guy lowered the standard again. Anyone who can practice weapons to level A can respond to his call.
who knows……"
"Isn't that right? If this is A level, no one should answer the call? After all, it is difficult to reach full level, but if it is only A level, there are still many ways." Gao Wen interrupted quickly.
The middle-aged man lay down on the bamboo chair carelessly and looked at Gao Wen up and down. However, there was no lust in his eyes. There was just an appreciative look like a teacher looking at a top student. He just looked at her.
After a while, he shook his head and said: "Your weapon usage skills should have stayed at level A for a long time. Have you ever considered why you didn't advance to level S?"
Gao Wen instinctively wanted to say that she had not accumulated enough experience, but Yu Xuan and Black and White's explanation of the skills flashed through her mind. Although from the system panel, she wanted to upgrade a skill, especially a skill such as a skill.
Reaching the full level only requires experience, but in fact, in addition to system rewards, players must have the understanding to upgrade themselves.
The middle-aged man knew that Gao Wen had thought of it as soon as he saw her expression, and then smiled and said: "You are not stupid. If you want to upgrade a kung fu to the full level, the player must have the most basic understanding. What is the most basic
Enlightenment? It refers to the essence of a kung fu, which is a relatively idealistic thing. Take your Qinglong Yanyue Sword as an example, the word "righteousness", how deep is your understanding? Have you fought side by side with your brothers and sisters?
Have you ever been moved by brotherhood? If you don't have any of these, why do you think you can use the Qinglong Yanyue Sword to Guan Yu's style?"
Gao Wen was a little confused. She lowered her head and looked at the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in her hand. For some reason, she suddenly felt that the knife in her hand was far less agile than when she first got it. It was lifeless, like the lonely indentation of an autistic child.
In the shadowed corner.
Gao Wen smiled bitterly. It turned out that she had been holding the treasure without knowing it. Could it be that Black and White was too strong, which made her so dependent that she gave up her efforts completely?
In fact, role models are all around her. Let’s not talk about how her man has accumulated a team to fight for saints along the way. Let’s just talk about the friends around him. In order to better master the Sharingan, Uncle Pancake kept taking his wife to do supernatural work.
The mission is to commit suicide. Yu Feng has never relaxed his practice of sword skills in order to master the Zanpakutō. Allen has been transforming himself almost every day. Li Se is thriving among the villains in Shushan.
Since then, it is said that the Xuanyin Beast Gathering Banner can now be pulled out to cover the entire New York. And Black and White, the cousin who got it while dawdling in S.H.I.E.L.D., it is said that he got the flesh and blood of Voldemort's unfinished dragon form last time, and now he can
Having transformed into a dragon, it can be said to be infinitely close to S-level. As for Yu Xuan, he has done the war mission more than once before!
Everyone is working hard in their own way. It seems that she is the only one who has been drifting with the crowd. She helps anyone who has a task. But honestly speaking, her strength is the same with or without her. Everyone just takes it out of friendship.
She is just playing, which is the fundamental reason why her strength has not fallen behind.
She is really too lazy, and she doesn’t even have a future direction. Including this time, she wants to obtain the law, but even she doesn’t know which law is suitable for her. The saint contender is not omniscient and omnipotent, and he can teach her.
What rules are best for her?
The middle-aged man saw Gao Wen's face changing and knew that the conversation was not in vain. He smiled and said: "Actually, he has lowered his requirements to that level. Players should come to him. In fact, there are players.
He passed him, but he kicked that guy out as soon as he saw him. How should I put it? Although the relationship is between the saint seeker and his subordinates, those who follow him can be regarded as half of his disciples. He is a very demanding person.
, he would rather not teach those he disliked. So this situation only lasted for three days, and he became stubborn again and began to prefer lack of teaching to abuse! In the end, he had no choice but to give up on the fight for sainthood."
Gao Wen scratched his cheek and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He didn't respond to the call because he knew the truth about the saint contender and didn't want to cause trouble. Unexpectedly, he caused so much trouble to the saint contender. This... I feel very guilty.
ah!
"Do you mind asking? Where did the expelled player fail?" Gao Wu, who had been silent, said. She felt that knowing the relevant information might be able to help her sister.
The middle-aged man didn't hide anything, and said with a smile: "There's nothing to hide. Coincidentally, she was also a female player. She was much stronger than you are now, and she has already entered A-level strength. She is also a compassionate person.
The two great skills of Hang Sword Code and Tao Xin Demon Seed, and his swordsmanship can be regarded as superb."
Gao Wen was shocked, "You can't even look down on someone with this kind of strength? Fortunately, I didn't come at that time, otherwise I might have wasted my trip!"
The middle-aged man raised his lips slightly and smiled meaningfully: "As the old saying goes, a female cousin is ruthless and an actor is meaningless! Of course, I am not targeting you actors. After all, actors have evolved into a profession and cannot be compared with the past. But that
Female gamers are the kind who are ruthless and only care about interests. My friend naturally dislikes such people, so he kicked them out."
Gao Wen smiled awkwardly, "It seems that your friend must be a person of noble character. I admire you very much!"
The middle-aged man smiled, "Okay, there's no point in talking anymore. Let's get down to business. You can draw your reward now!"
Gao Wen immediately became happy when he heard about the reward. Although he didn't find the saint contender, at least he could still get the reward... "Wait a minute! Draw? Didn't he just leave a reward?"
The middle-aged man laughed very cheaply for a moment, "Yes, it is a reward, but there are many other garbage. You must accurately find the correct reward among them. If you don't find it, you can only receive the garbage."
It’s a consolation prize!”
Poof! Gao Wen wanted to vomit blood in his heart. This must be revenge! It must be revenge!
The middle-aged man did not give Gao Wen time to vomit blood. He directly waved his hand and shot out a light screen at Gao Wen. The light screen was projected into the air and pulled out a list of hundreds of pages like a KTV song request!
Gao Wen felt a little dizzy just by looking at it. There were about a hundred items in each page of the list, including pots and pans. They were all dusty and dim. They didn't look like good things. But these things were not taken.
You don’t know what special functions it has before you get it. People say that magical objects hide their own secrets. What if someone else’s magical weapon has this style?
The middle-aged man looked at Gao Wen and his eyes rolled around in a very good mood. He coughed lightly and said with a beaming smile: "Little girl, if you can't find it, just choose a weapon that suits your taste. You are afraid of the sword."
There is no future. Although these things are rubbish in his opinion, they are still good for you players and will not be worse than your knife!"
Gao Wen was startled, seeing the way the middle-aged man kept ogling her, was this implying that her reward was a weapon? He looked down at the knife in his hand, and all the details of Guan Yu's battle in Maicheng flashed in his mind.
Thinking about it, why did Guan Yu give the sword to him in the first place? Was it really just because she followed him to the end? Was the throbbing in her heart that the Qinglong Yanyue Sword gave her at that time really just a show effect?
"Thank you for your kindness, senior, but... I don't want to forget the entrustment given by an old friend. Since it chose me in the first place, I have the responsibility to carry it with me for the rest of my life!"
The middle-aged man paused and looked at Gao Wen with some surprise. For a moment, he seemed to see a trace of freedom and a trace of heavy responsibility in Gao Wen's eyes.
"(ˉ▽￣~) Tie~~, well, for the sake of this girl you are quite pleasing to the eye, let me give you a hint, you are in urgent need of a technique that can perfectly match you with a weapon like a broadsword!
"
The middle-aged man's words made Gao Wen excited. Kung Fu? Subconsciously, he stretched out his hand to turn the page forward, intending to look for any kung fu he hadn't noticed... "I'll go! Why can't I turn the page forward?"
The middle-aged man raised his eyebrows, "Oh hahaha, didn't I tell you? This option can only be turned backwards!"
Creaking, creaking, Gao Wen gritted his teeth for a moment, this is so stupid! Resisting the bulging veins on his forehead, he stretched out his hand and started to turn backwards. However, there were not many things similar to the exercises. It took him two minutes to turn.
I saw a book on page 78.
The book was so dark that the content could not be seen at all, so Gao Wen simply chose it. Either way, it was fate, so if you can make a decision in such a tricky situation, just make a decision. Don't let that guy tell her that there is a time limit.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man lost interest in chatting anymore. He reached out and pushed, and the strong but empty force directly pushed Gao Wen back to the palace in the bamboo forest.
"Sister, this is the weirdest NPC I have ever encountered!" Gao Wu looked around and realized that he was in a familiar environment before he dared to speak.
Gao Wen shook his head, turned around and said: "This is not a serious place, let's leave first." After saying that, he walked out first. When he left the palace and looked back, three big characters suddenly appeared on the originally mixed-style building.
'The Temple of War'!
"Huh? What's the point of the Temple of War?" Gao Wen blinked and suddenly remembered the secret book. He took out the book and opened it. It turned out to be an album composed of seven or seventy-nine pictures!
At the same time, marks are also given in the system panel in time.
God of War Catalog: A mysterious book composed of 7749 pictures, which can be integrated into the player's exclusive weapon to form a unique special skill.
God of War Catalog! This name is really thunderous. For players who play in the East, Master Huang's works are very familiar.
Exclusive weapons? Special skills? It turns out that the God of War catalog is set by the system for this purpose.
Gao Wen had no intention of continuing to study the pictures. Just kidding, Master Huang is very pornographic. What if there is something in the picture that irritates your eyes? Just use it! He slapped it on the Qinglong Yanyue Knife. In an instant,
Countless mysterious carvings appeared on the handle of the knife, and the entire long knife seemed to have been reborn. The faint dragon's roar echoed in my ears, and the initial throbbing was felt again.
She knew that this was Chang Dao... acting coquettishly?
"Looks like this trip was not in vain, let's go home!" Gao Wen let out a proud laugh like a barbell.
Gao Wu rolled his eyes and said, "It's dinner time, I'll go offline to find my brother-in-law, hum!"
Gao Wen was startled, "You want to betray me, little bitch!" Before he could finish his words, he saw that the kitten had stopped moving and lay on the ground as if asleep.
Gao Wen had no choice but to pick up the kitten's tail and tuck it under her arm, like a pillow.
At the end of the mission, the Qinglong Yanyue Sword whistled softly and brought it back to the modern line. As soon as Gao Wen's front foot landed, she saw a flash of light in front of her eyes. She subconsciously struck it with a knife!
"Huh? Who are you?"
"I feel the jealousy hidden deep in the dark corners of your heart. You are eager to become stronger and change the world! Come on, tell your wish and I will fulfill it. Join me! Join the Dark Knights!"
Gao Wen drooped his eyelids and tried his best to make himself look less hot and irritable, your sister! I am so jealous, have you felt it?
"Come on, I feel the breath of Shinto from you. You are a god abandoned by mankind. Join me! Become a ruthless iron fist! Say your grievances and your wishes!" The guy roared again.
Gao Wen pursed her lips and cooperated, it's not easy for others, "My wish is...well, to kill all the unlucky people in the world!"
"...How about you think about it again? I'll go back and think about it again!"
