Dao Ying Nian Hua only realized he'd been tricked, but he couldn't figure out exactly when it had started. Was it when the other party entered Wulong Cave and discovered they were being followed, that this scheme was hatched? Or was it intentional from the very beginning, leading them in this direction?
"Can't open it?" Dao Ying Nian Hua asked.
The thief, who had already given up trying, nodded sadly.
"Who didn't make it in?" Dao Ying Nian Hua surveyed the four people in the cave.
"Yu Tian, Yu Tian didn't make it in," one person replied.
"Looks like he was ambushed and killed," Dao Ying Nian Hua sighed deeply.
"He already has 15 PK points, and he's still killing people!" one person exclaimed in surprise.
"He already has 15 points, so he doesn't care about one more or less!" Dao Ying Nian Hua said.
"That's not right. In the guild, Yu Tian is still level 30. He didn't die," one person discovered.
"Quick, message him!" several people shouted.
"I'm not dead yet. He slashed me once, locked the iron plate, and ran," Yu Tian Shen Ming replied.
"Locked?"
"Yeah, there's a lock on the entrance to this secret passage. He locked it. How do we open it?" Yu Tian Shen Ming asked.
"That guy can open this secret passage. He has the key! Quick, get people to chase him!" Dao Ying Nian Hua shouted, while frantically posting the news that Gu Fei was in Wulong Cave on the guild channel.
At this time, Gu Fei and Yu Tian Shen Ming had already emerged from Wulong Cave side by side.
"Your 'Ah' at the end wasn't very good," Gu Fei said.
"Really? I thought so too. I wanted to laugh so badly at the time, I almost turned 'Ah' into 'Ha'! Is it easy for me?" Yu Tian Shen Ming said.
The two walked quickly down the mountain road, and several figures appeared at the intersection ahead.
"How's it going?" You Ge stepped forward and asked.
"Of course, it's ok!" Yu Tian Shen Ming said triumphantly.
"Hmph, Dao Ying Nian Hua, trying to play games with me? He's not even close," Han Jia Gong Zi sneered, then turned to Gu Fei with a dark face and questioned, "Why didn't you follow the coordinates I set up exactly?"
"Nonsense, the coordinates you set up were either a big pit or had upright stone spikes. Was that a place to stand? Were you deliberately trying to kill me?" Gu Fei retorted.
"Alright, there's no time. Let's quickly move on to the next step!" Jian Gui said.
At the mention of the next step, Gu Fei became a little teary-eyed. "Can't I not go?"
"No, you have to go!" Han Jia Gong Zi's tone was firm.
"Hey, are you trying to trick me again?" Gu Fei said suspiciously.
Han Jia Gong Zi said coldly, "This is definitely the best plan. Get rid of those guys who are following you so closely, and just run along this road along the Wulong Mountains. Absolutely no one will be able to catch up to you."
"How much time is left before the coordinates refresh?" You Ge asked.
"9 seconds," Gu Fei said.
"Go quickly!" You Ge patted him on the back.
"Good luck!" Jian Gui stepped forward to pat him.
"You can do it!" Yu Tian Shen Ming came up and patted him.
"Yeah!" Zhan Wu Shang didn't say anything, just nodded vigorously.
"Get lost!" Han Jia Gong Zi looked annoyed just seeing Gu Fei.
"I'm going!" Gu Fei saw the new coordinates appear and immediately turned and ran.
"Won't he encounter anyone else on the way?" Yu Tian Shen Ming muttered.
"Absolutely not," Han Jia Gong Zi said confidently. "According to the last coordinate he left in the Wulong Cave, the people looking for him are all on the other side of the Wulong Mountains. Even the fastest of them will need ten minutes to get to our position."
"That's not right!" Yu Tian Shen Ming suddenly exclaimed, "Why would they spend ten minutes? After running for five minutes, the coordinates will refresh again!"
"Well, after they run for five minutes and discover the new coordinates, they'll head towards the new coordinates, which will take twelve minutes," Han Jia Gong Zi said.
Yu Tian Shen Ming was dumbfounded. "What about the coordinates that refresh the third time?"
Han Jia Gong Zi's expression was pained. "If they don't insist on reaching the second coordinate and change their route when they receive the third refreshed coordinates, four minutes later they'll realize they've reached a dead end..."
"And then?"
"And then? Then they can only go back the way they came..."
"But at this time, Qian Li will refresh the coordinates for the fourth time."
"That's right," Han Jia Gong Zi nodded. "But they still have to return to the location of the second refreshed coordinates before they can continue chasing. I can't even calculate how much time that wastes. I deeply admire anyone who continues to chase at that point."
"That's terrible!" Yu Tian Shen Ming exclaimed.
"There's something even more terrible," Han Jia Gong Zi raised his thumb and pointed behind him without turning his head. "These guys are taking those coordinates to look for him in the Wulong Cave... Heavens, you won't blame me for going too far, will you?"
The others turned around and saw that Zong Heng Si Hai had gathered a large group of people and were heading this way along the mountain road under the leadership of Wu Shi Zhi Jian, huffing and puffing.
"Oh, I still need to take them to rescue Dao Ying Nian Hua in the secret passage," Yu Tian Shen Ming suddenly remembered.
"Do you have the key?" You Ge asked.
"No," Yu Tian Shen Ming said.
"Where's the key?" everyone asked.
"In the secret passage," Yu Tian Shen Ming replied.
"In the secret passage?" everyone asked in confusion.
"Yeah, Qian Li said he threw it in the secret passage," Yu Tian Shen Ming said.
"Then how are we going to get them out?" Only the honest Jian Gui was still pondering this question.
"I don't know. I'm just making a gesture. I don't even remember how to get to the entrance of the secret passage anymore," Yu Tian Shen Ming said, waving goodbye to the four of them. "I'm off."
With that, he turned and ran down the mountain road, shouting as he ran, "Boss! Something bad happened! Dao Ying and the others are trapped in the tunnel!"
"Shall we go too?" The four of them also started down the mountain road.
"I wonder where that road leads to?" You Ge asked.
"You'll know when Qian Li comes back and you ask him," Han Jia Gong Zi said calmly.
"He won't log off for 30 hours, can Qian Li handle it? I usually only see him playing for three or four hours," You Ge said.
"That's his problem," Han Jia Gong Zi said.
"It should be fine, right..." You Ge said.
"It's fine!" Jian Gui said affirmatively.
"Yeah!" Zhan Wu Shang nodded.
"The mercenary团won't accept any missions until Qian Li comes back. Let's have a big vacation, everyone can do their own thing!" Han Jia Gong Zi waved his hand.
At this time, Gu Fei was walking quickly in the Wulong Mountains. The mountain road was very wide, with a mountain wall on the left and a cliff on the right. The road ahead and behind was hidden in a cloud-like mist. There were no small monsters to kill along the way, so the journey was very boring. Gu Fei could only speed up his pace, hoping that a training area would appear ahead.
An hour later, news came from Yun Duan City that players were returning to Yun Duan City in droves, announcing that they were giving up the pursuit mission. Moreover, many people were left with temporary aftereffects. Whenever they heard a number used to indicate a location, they immediately entered a state of dementia. Some with severe symptoms would become abnormal when they heard calls for table 7 or table 8 in the tavern.
Even more miserable was Zong Heng Si Hai, who turned the Wulong Cave upside down but couldn't find Gu Fei's shadow. The entire guild was helpless in the face of a rusty lock. Dao Ying Nian Hua and the four full-agility warriors trapped in the tunnel finally decided to explore the unknown exit at the other end, only to stumble into the bedroom of the mountain bandit boss, Suo Tu. The consequences were imaginable.
Most heartbreaking of all, just as Dao Ying Nian Hua and the four full-agility warriors were being sent back to the resurrection point by Suo Tu, Wu Shi Zhi Jian was announcing on the guild channel that the little blue monster guarding the entrance to the secret passage had spawned and been successfully defeated, and the key had been obtained and would soon open the tunnel... And a small group of people searching for Gu Fei deep in the Wulong Cave were extinguished by the嘍囉who swarmed in at the sound of Suo Tu's whistle. When the members of Zong Heng Si Hai emerged from the Wulong Cave again, they were scarred, both physically and mentally.
Gu Fei, who was walking alone on the mountain road, passed the time with these messages sent by the guys from the mercenary团. Suddenly, he saw a faint figure in the clouds and mist directly ahead.
"I've been walking for so long! I finally encountered a monster!" Gu Fei was excited. He stretched his limbs and pulled out Yan Zhi Xi Li from his pocket and rushed up.
As the distance closed, Gu Fei gradually saw more clearly. He didn't recognize the person, but the sack on the person's back was unexpectedly familiar.
After further reasoning, Gu Fei took off the black cloth from his face.
"Xiao Yu?" Gu Fei called out tentatively.
The sack warrior turned around. Who else could it be but Xiao Yu?
"Qian Li!" Xiao Yu was also pleasantly surprised. "What are you doing here? Are you doing a mission?"
"Yeah, a mission, a mission!" Gu Fei nodded while wiping his sweat. He was still wondering how to answer Xiao Yu's question about why he was here, but he didn't expect this girl to come up with an answer for him.
"Oh, are you going to Ye Guang Village?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Yeah!" Gu Fei answered casually, muttering in his heart, what kind of ghost place is that.
"That's great, me too!" Xiao Yu said.
"Really, that's good..." Gu Fei said.
"Let's go together?" Xiao Yu said.
"Of course," Gu Fei replied.
"What mission are you doing?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Oh, Eddie's Mission," Gu Fei answered casually.
"What kind of mission is that?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Uh, it's a mission chain," Gu Fei replied.
"A mission chain!" Xiao Yu exclaimed. "You got a mission chain!"
"Yeah... I got it by accident," Gu Fei said.
"I'll help you!" Xiao Yu said.
"Uh, this... I don't know how to continue yet. I'm just going to try it out," Gu Fei said.
"Of course, a mission chain isn't that easy to complete. But don't worry, with my help, it'll definitely work. I'm a mission expert!" Xiao Yu patted her chest and said.
