Real Cthulhu Running Game

Chapter 2366 Hesitation

“Apeng, what do you think about this matter?”

Yu Lei suddenly asked: "In your opinion, should we take the initiative and find a way to solve this potential threat?"

Liu Xing didn't expect that Yu Lei would be so anxious. In less than half a day, he couldn't help himself and wanted to express his position on this matter.

If nothing unexpected happens, if I agree with Yu Lei's point of view at this time, then Yu Lei will probably take him to see Gongzi Ying immediately and describe his thoughts as "his and Apeng's" thoughts. .

No wonder Yu Lei was waiting for him at the door.

 So do you want to stand on Yu Lei’s side?

Liu Xing directly determined one thing at this moment, that is, he must not stand on Yu Lei's side at this time, because Yu Lei lacked sufficient understanding of mimic plants at this time, so the decision he made must be correct. It's a problem, and Yu Lei is really too anxious now. If he stands on his side, he will be implicated to some extent.

More importantly, Liu Xing also knows that he has some say in Tianshui Town today, or in front of Gongzi Ying, so if he makes Gongzi Ying make a wrong decision, then the problem will be big.

But, it is not easy for Liu Xing to stand against Yu Lei at this time, because he and Yu Lei have been good brothers for more than a month, so if there is a gap because of this, it will not be a good thing for Liu Xing. News, after all, Gong Ziying is just the icing on the cake for him, and Yu Lei can sometimes help him when he needs it.

It seems that I can only give an ambiguous answer now.

Liu Xing, who had made up his mind, was just about to say something when he saw Xia Fei walking out of the yard.

 “Yo, Apeng, you’re here.”

Xia Fei said with a smile: "A Ying happened to be talking about you over there in the pavilion, so A Peng, you go directly to find A Ying. I won't accompany you right now because I have to go now." Find that Iron Gun Taoist."

"Um?"

 Liu Xing and Yu Lei both looked at Xia Fei with surprise, not expecting that he would go to Taoist Iron Gun at this time.

"Taoist Iron Spear has actually been to Tianshui Town several times during the time we left Tianshui Town, and his main purpose of coming to Tianshui Town was to discuss one thing with Aying, that is, how to deal with the unknown tower. The World of Warcraft? Because we are not in Tianshui Town, Aying has never made the final decision. Therefore, Aying will arrange for me to have a chat with Taoist Iron Gun at this time. If there is a chance, I will go first. Explore the way in that tower." Xia Fei said with a smile.

 “Then I’ll go with you.”

Yu Lei said without hesitation: "Although we often say that one person should not enter the temple and two people should not look into the well, I think it is not a good idea for Xia Fei to enter that tower alone with Taoist Iron Spear, because I have I heard A Peng mention that the inside of this tower is quite cramped, and it is difficult for our light skills to work in it, so if Taoist Iron Spear has ulterior motives, Xia Fei will be in trouble."

"Ah, that's not the case, is it? Unless this Iron Gun Taoist is coming for me, it is unlikely that he will attack me directly? And I didn't know him at all before this."

Xia Fei wanted to say something, but was taken away by Yu Lei. Liu Xing knew that Yu Lei was trying to find a way out for him, because his hesitation had already made him understand his general thoughts, so Yu Lei Lei took this opportunity and chose to leave, so that Liu Xing would no longer need to express his stance.

 So after watching Yu Lei and Xia Fei leave, Liu Xing couldn't help but sigh, and then went to find Young Master Ying.

At this time, Young Master Ying was pacing back and forth in the pavilion, and he looked very anxious.

Of course, it would be strange if Young Master Ying was not anxious now, because if the blue fireball that suddenly fell was an ominous omen for the third prince, then it was a life-threatening talisman for Young Master Ying.

 That's why Gongzi Ying called Liu Xing at this time, in order to discuss with Liu Xing what to do next.

What should we do?

 Salad!

Liu Xing sighed silently, knowing that the current blue fireball had no solution, so Liu Xing felt that there was only one thing he could do now - let nature take its course.

Although Young Master Ying also understood this at this time, as the person involved, he still wanted to do something, even if all he did was useless.

 So at this time, Liu Xing could only keep saying "yes, yes, yes" when facing Gongzi Ying, and once again reiterated that he would definitely support Gongzi Ying unconditionally and would definitely ensure Gongzi Ying's safety.

“Brother Peng, I am so touched that you can do this, and I can only rely on you now.”

Young Master Ying sighed, took Liu Xing's hand and said: "If the situation comes to the worst, then Brother Peng, you can follow me to Luohua Fortress! If that doesn't work, we can also go to the beach, because I have a sister Right over there, she can at least keep us fed and clothed for the rest of our lives.”

Liu Xing raised his eyebrows slightly. Unexpectedly, Young Master Ying had already thought of a way out.

Just when Liu Xing was about to say a few words to Young Master Yingxu, he saw Alice running over in a hurry. After whispering a few words to Young Master Ying, Young Master Ying said goodbye to Liu Xing and left in a hurry.

Before Liu Xing could ask, Alice shrugged and said, "If nothing else happens, Young Master Ying may be going to be a father, so he is so anxious now."

"ah?"

Liu Xing looked at Alice in confusion, because as a medical student, Liu Xing knew that Gongziying and Liang Waner had only met again for a few days, so how could they already have a child? Isn't this a little too fast?

"In this martial arts module, some things are a little faster than in the real world, so half a month is enough to see something." Alice smiled, turned and left.

After searching in "Liu Peng's" memory, Liu Xing discovered that the NPCs in the martial arts module this time were indeed extremely talented. Therefore, it was normal for Young Master Ying to become a father at this time, and it was not some nonsense. plot.

But this doesn’t seem to be good news.

As we all know, once people have concerns, they will inevitably become more cautious when doing things. After all, it is no longer the time when one person is full and the whole family is not hungry.

 So in Liu Xing's view, Gongziying may become more conservative after this, and he will also know what it means to think twice before making decisions.

 For players such as Liu Xing, such a young master seems to have become better, because no one wants to be led into a pit by an aggressive NPC.

However, Liu Xing is still a little worried that such a young master will only defend but not attack, and will also keep the royal guards and other forces firmly in his hands. After all, he has to ensure the safety of himself and his family!

As a result, Liu Xing and other players can do less things. After all, although there are many players, the individual strength is still too weak, so don't expect to accomplish anything big if you just rely on players to do things.

 Thinking about it, Liu Xing came to the new address of Wangjiacun.

At this time, Wangjia Village had already completed the construction of tables, chairs and benches, so the old village chief began to lead people to use the remaining materials to build the Juma, because he still remembered Liu Xing's words about the lack of fortifications in Tianshui Town at this time.

“Liu Xiaowei, I walked around Tianshui Town today and have determined where these horses should be placed.”

The old village chief, who had rested for a day, had regained his energy at this time, so he said to Liu Xing with a smile: "So, if you don't mind, Mr. Xiaowei, I will arrange manpower to put these horses on them now." Where they should be, build a few sentry towers at suitable locations! There is also the Canglong Temple in the East Palace on the mountain. If necessary, I can also participate in the design and turn it into a small fortress."

Without even thinking about it, Liu Xing nodded and said: "No problem, old village chief, you can figure it out yourself. I believe you can bring the defense of Tianshui Town to a higher level! As for the Canglong Temple in the East Palace, the old villager Chief, you can discuss it with everyone. If they are free now, they can help out and try to get it to take shape within this month, because some things are already starting."

 Hearing what Liu Xing said, the old village chief's expression became serious.

Liu Xing did not intend to hide it at this time, so he continued: "To be honest, His Majesty suddenly issued several imperial edicts in the past two days. In short, he made all the princes become state shepherds. , and at the same time divided the world into nine states."

 “State Shepherd?!”

The old village chief took a breath, shook his head and said: "Your Majesty is really cruel and ruthless. He even dared to take it out to his sons. Isn't this forcing their brothers to rebel? You know, even the former dynasty The prince only served as governor and could not even get the title of state pastor! If His Majesty's staying behind closed doors is a sign of preparation, then if he now allows his sons to become state pastors, it is equivalent to one by one. I gave them a kick and told them to start fighting quickly.”

Just when Liu Xing wanted to say something, he noticed that the old village chief's eyes flickered at this time, as if he was thinking about something very important, so Liu Xing silently closed his mouth and waited for the old village chief to make a decision.

After a while, the old village chief made up his mind and said to Liu Xing seriously: "Master Colonel, I hope you can arrange some qualified carpenters for me, because I want to make several bed crossbows! You must know that in addition to family kung fu and military skills, our Wang family also has a secret craft - making bed crossbows! You must know that bed crossbows are a great killing weapon, but few people know how to make them, and these people know how to make beds. People who make crossbows will also be locked up with good food and drink, so I dare say that even under the third prince, there are not many people who can make bed crossbows."

"oh?!"

Liu Xing looked at the old village chief with surprise. He didn't expect that the old village chief could make a bed crossbow! You must know that the bed crossbow is in this martial arts module, but it can kill even the first-class masters instantly. Therefore, there are no bed crossbows on the walls of Boyang City and other cities, and Liang City is only in the inner city. Several bed crossbows were installed on the city walls.

"Of course, the bed crossbow I can make is just a simple version, because a truly authentic bed crossbow has very high requirements for materials, and it also requires the skill of the craftsman who made it. If there is any mistake, all the previous efforts will be wasted. , start all over again! However, although the bed crossbow I made is only a simple version, it is completely sufficient at this time. Even a heavily armored warrior cannot block the damage of this crossbow bolt, so I plan to use it at the Canglong Temple in the East Palace. Install a few bed crossbows, and then prepare another one by the bridge, so that you can shoot the first bird!"

The old village chief pointed to the hillside beside him and continued: "And I also found that there is a lot of clay on this hillside, so we can make some clay pots to prepare, because the bed crossbow I made can also be made by replacing parts. Turn it into a small trebuchet, and then we can put some fire oil, gold juice, or boiling water and iron nails in the clay pot! In this way, we can give the enemy a head-on blow, as long as we can block their first attack If we attack with waves, we will have a chance to hold on to Sweetwater Town."

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.

According to Liu Xing's understanding, this siege battle also pays great attention to one-stop attack, because if you cannot capture the city in a short time, then your siege time will be measured in years, so holding on to the first round of attack is crucial Very important to Sweetwater.

“No problem, I’ll arrange for a few carpenters to come over and help you. As for the materials, please make a list first, and I will arrange it for you as soon as possible.”

Liu Xing was not polite and immediately went back to find Yin En and asked him to bring all the carpenters in Tianshui Town to Wangjiacun, regardless of whether the carpenter was a player or an NPC.

Fortunately, compared to blacksmiths, carpenters can be found everywhere. After all, in this martial arts module, who doesn’t have a few pieces of wooden furniture at home? So let alone a professional carpenter, even an ordinary person can do some simple carpentry work.

So Yin En quickly took a few people to find the old village chief, and Liu Xing also asked Meng Fugui to prepare some useful materials and send them to Wangjiacun.

"If we can really make a few bed crossbows and trebuchets, then our chances of holding Sweetwater Town will be higher... But, do we really have to hold on to Sweetwater Town then?"

Meng Fugui said hesitantly: "If there are not many enemies, then we can still guard Tianshui for a while, but if there are too many enemies, we will still have to fight hard, right? Because we haven't reached a situation where everything is dead, after all. As long as we live, we can continuously earn achievement points."

“I think we can still take a gamble, because there is a chance that bicycles can become motorcycles.”

Liu Xing said hesitantly: "But if we can really win the empty city, then it is okay to abandon Tianshui Town."
