Real Cthulhu Running Game

  Chapter 1962 Bad luck?

   "Maybe next month."

Su Qiusheng said indifferently: "I still need to make some preparations this month, and my master has watched the sky these days and found that there may be a heavy rain tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, so it is not a good idea to face the iron-eating beast at this time. Therefore, I still plan to go and make gestures with that iron-eating beast after the sky is fine and the ground is dry."

   "Then are you confident?" Lu Tianya continued to ask.

After pondering for a moment, Su Qiusheng shook his head and said, "I have no confidence, because that iron-eating beast is so powerful that even my master doesn't have the confidence to fight it alone. In the case of retreating, after all, the iron-eating beast waved its claws casually, and the tree as big as the mouth of the bowl would have to be broken in response! So my master once saw an eight-foot man who thought highly of himself and practiced hard Qigong horizontally. After getting ready, he was sent to the west by the paw of the iron-eating beast."

"Uh, then this iron-eating beast is too powerful, so why don't the various sects in Chiyou City join forces to get rid of it? I'm worried that this iron-eating beast will do something bad sooner or later, such as a certain According to some folk tales, iron-eating beasts will go to nearby villages to eat livestock and poultry, and even those misbehaving children." Lu Tianya said worriedly.

Su Qiusheng sighed, shook his head and said, "It stands to reason that we should have found a way to get rid of this iron-eating beast long ago. After all, iron-eating beasts don't really only eat iron, so many bad things have happened over the years. It's a good thing, but you should also be aware that the price you need to pay to get rid of this iron-eating beast is really too high. Even a first-class master like my master may die on the spot, so those sects are fighting for their own. I don’t want to go all out for my own interests... Of course, this is also normal, for example, when my master heard that I was going to participate in the test, he invited many people to drink overnight."

"But then again, this iron-eating beast will spend most of its time wandering around on its own three-acre land, and won't run out to make trouble unless it fails to find enough food, but This kind of situation will rarely happen, because the iron-eating beast can eat anything, so for the iron-eating beast, everything around it is its food, it's just whether it is good or not; therefore unless it is an iron-eating beast Tian is very picky about food, so he chooses to leave his lair to look for food outside, but he usually doesn’t run too far, so as long as we stay away from its lair, we won’t encounter any danger.”

   "Then we can set up traps and put the iron-eating beast's favorite food in the trap, so that as long as the iron-eating beast is attacked, then we can handle it." Li Mengyao said with a bright eye.

   "No, the idea has proven unworkable."

Su Qiusheng shrugged and said, "Before we prepared several different traps, and put iron-eating beasts' favorite food - refined iron, but the iron-eating beasts just didn't look at that trap directly, and even bypassed it specially. Those traps are obviously mocking us."

   "It seems that the intelligence level of this iron-eating beast is not low."

  Tian Qing took a sip of water and continued: "So as long as this iron-eating beast doesn't suddenly come out to cause damage, we really don't need to confront it head-on, because some of the costs are too high."

   "Yeah, but have you heard any gossip lately?"

Su Qiusheng suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Recently, the mountain is about to rain. I heard that the prefects are preparing to recruit troops in advance, and they have been frequenting various sects in the past two days. It seems that they are planning to invite a group of martial arts masters to come out of the mountain." To help him do things, to put it bluntly, I want to take this opportunity to perform well, and strive to become a dragon."

   "I think the prefect thinks too much."

  Lu Tianya said without hesitation: "Although the strength of our Chi You City is not weak, but if we count up, we will not be able to rank. After all, the strength of the other eight princes is higher than our eight princes."

"That's right, the Eighth Prince didn't intend to fight for the throne from the very beginning, that's why he chose to place the fief in our remote village, and he hasn't made similar preparations in recent years, so we all think that the Eighth Prince might choose Sit firmly on the Diaoyutai, wait until the general situation in the world is stable again, and then ask the final winner for the position of Prince Taiping." Li Mengyao added.

   "Heroes see the same thing!"

Su Qiusheng said with a satisfied face: "I also think that it is unlikely that the eighth prince will go to the Central Plains, because his strength is not strong in the first place, and his geographical location is also the worst among the nine princes. It may take a month or two for the soldiers to assemble, because the roads connecting some cities to the outside world are really poor, and they have to cross mountains and ridges."

   "Don't forget that some places are when miasma is exuberant, so sending troops at this time can only go a long way, and there is no guarantee that there will be attrition on the road." Tian Qing complained.

Su Qiusheng couldn't help sighing again, and said depressedly: "In fact, I really wanted to take this opportunity to make contributions and make a name for my Su, but the eighth prince really didn't do well! So why didn't I What about under the rule of the third prince? I heard that the third prince attaches great importance to martial arts masters, and the number of diners under his sect may exceed four digits!"

  Hearing "Three Princes", Tian Qing and the others thought of Liu Xing and others who were chosen in Heshan County.

  So what are Liu Xing and others doing at this time?

  Go down the river to fish.

   Today "Liu Peng"'s grandparents came to Tianshui Town, and they also brought their food, including a cart full of Laotan sauerkraut.

Of course, the car here refers to a cart pulled by mules, and the old altar sauerkraut is also authentic old altar fermented, so "Liu Peng"'s grandfather became the No. kitchen.

Therefore, a new dish will be served in the cafeteria tonight-pickled fish. After all, the weather has been very hot these two days. Eating some pickled fish can appetize and relieve the heat. Fish are plentiful.

  So Liu Xing called Ding Kun, and brought a few people to start fishing in the river. As for why he didn’t go fishing directly, it was because Liu Xing was worried that if he became a fisherman, he would directly transfer to the Air Force.

   What's more, in the past two days, after it was confirmed that the water monkeys were gone, the fishing nets in the river had also been removed, but a new filter was installed downstream, so that those big fish could not continue to flow down the river.

  No way, there are hundreds of mouths in Tianshui Town now, and fish is the easiest and free source of protein.

  So at this time, after Liu Xing and others entered the water, they felt that fish were passing by them constantly, and they even bumped into themselves.

   "Liu Xing, are you worried about your big toe?"

Ding Kun next to    whispered: "Although your new nails have grown, I think it is better for you not to touch the water at this time, let alone this kind of river water that does not know how many bacteria and microorganisms it contains."

  Liu Xing nodded, thinking that what Ding Kun said was very reasonable, and of course it was true. Liu Xing had said the same thing to those patients with nail injuries before.

  However, Liu Xing didn't know the reason, the word "fast" protruded from his newly grown toenails, and it looked a little newer than the other nails next to him.

  So Liu Xing tried to check his new nails, and found that everything was normal, no difference from normal nails, even if he pressed it, he would not feel any pain.

   Then this is good?

   Liu Xing expressed some doubts about this, because the nail loss this time was the same as the previous low back pain, and it came and went quickly, as if he had obtained a temporary experience card, and he would immediately return to the original state when the time came.

  So after struggling for a while, Liu Xing decided to go into the water for a try, but so far everything is normal.

   This is absolutely perfect.

Liu Xing shook his head and continued: "I now suspect that I triggered a bug in the game hall of the Cthulhu Running Group, otherwise why would these strange symptoms suddenly appear on my body, and then disappear without a trace after a day? And you have never encountered a similar situation. At the same time, I did encounter a bug in the game hall of the Cthulhu Running Group before... But when it comes to bugs, I thought of Tener again, so is this possible? Is it a small gift from Turner?"

   "There is a possibility."

Ding Kun replied immediately: "After all, the portable weapons that Turner prepared for us can be brought into this special martial arts module, so it is not difficult for him to leave you some small gifts. Of course, this may also be a special Gnar prepared some hints for you to do certain things?"

   "Makes sense."

Liu Xing pondered for a while while touching the fish, and then said seriously: "Is there such a possibility that Tener wants me to go to that Taoist temple! You see, two days ago I suddenly had a pain in my waist There is a problem, and I, a doctor from modern times, can't find the cause of the disease, so what would it be in ancient times? Isn't it because I feel that I may encounter something unclean? Or because my heart is not sincere, so Being punished by the gods in the sky? You must know that there are real gods in this mod!"

As soon as Liu Xing said this, Ding Kun suddenly realized, "Yes, if I look at what happened to Liu Xing from the perspective of an NPC, then the advice I can give is to go to a Taoist temple. And there is only one Taoist temple near Heshan County, and we have entered it once in the previous module! So Tener may be reminding Liu Xing that you should go to the Taoist temple, and there may be new discoveries inside! "

  Thinking along this line of thought, Liu Xing felt that he had suddenly hurt his nails, and it was possible that Turner was urging him to move quickly. After all, the biggest impact of toenail injuries on him was reflected in walking.

  Of course, if according to another line of thought that Liu Xing did not tell Ding Kunming, then Turner also expected that he would get the Night Roar Statue, so this is to help him trigger the Night Roar Statue's dream function?

   But no matter what, if all this is really what Tener did, then Liu Xing has to lament that this Tener is worthy of being a Yisian, and he can be counted to this step!

   At this time, Liu Xing suddenly heard the sound of the dice falling to the ground, and then felt a big fish hit his calf, making him take a step forward involuntarily.

   Then Liu Xing twisted his foot.

   There is no way, there are too many broken stones in the river, so Liu Xing used to tiptoe when moving, and only took the next step after he was sure he had stood firmly.

  The result is still a trick.

   But fortunately, twisting his foot this time was only a small problem, because the buoyancy of the river water lessened Liu Xing's damage, so Liu Xing did not lose HP this time.

  But Liu Xing has no way to continue fishing.

   "Liu Xing, what's wrong with you? Did a fish bite you?"

  Seeing that Liu Xing was a little strange, Ding Kun asked with a smile: "You have to be careful, we caught several mullets in this river a few days ago, and these mullets have teeth."

   "I sprained my ankle."

  Liu Xing couldn't laugh or cry: "Just now I passed a dark dice suddenly, and then I was hit by a fish. As a result, I accidentally sprained my foot, but the problem is not too big. It looks like it was just an accident."

"Uh, if Liu Xing and you have been normal these two days, I think it is an accident that you sprained your foot, but you have been injured for no reason these two days, and you still hurt your foot, which makes people have to I suspect that your previous guess was correct."

  Ding Kun said solemnly: "So you should go ashore and deal with it now. We have caught a lot of fish here, so we don't need your helper."

  Liu Xing nodded, then swam to the shore, and then checked his injured foot, and found that there was no major problem.

  So Liu Xing got up and took two steps, and when his injured foot fell to the ground, he felt a little pain.

  Just a small problem.

   This made Liu Xing heave a sigh of relief, thinking that this was just an accident.

  However, Liu Xing still decided to go to Heshan County tomorrow, to be precise, to go to that Taoist temple to see if he can change his luck.

  Although there was an episode where Liu Xing was suddenly injured, today’s fish catch was still good enough for everyone to eat fresh and delicious pickled fish.

   But before Liu Xing had time to go back, he saw He Xiong coming to Tianshui Town alone.

   Seeing this situation, Liu Xing took the initiative to attack and said: "Brother He! I saw the Ge Jing you were looking for!"

  He Xiong was also surprised when he heard Liu Xing say that, because he really didn't expect Liu Xing to say this.

  However, he still reacted quickly, and said after dismounting alone: ​​"Brother Liu, have you really seen Ge Jing? Then where did he go?"
