Chapter 210 Entering the dungeon "Recovering the Soul"!
"Okay, it's almost time. I wish you all good luck."
After Li Shoushi finished speaking, a young man outside the door bowed respectfully to Li Shoushi, and then walked in .
At the same time, he said softly: "Everyone, my ability is quite special, called "Scarecrow Substitute". I can replace the 8 players who are about to enter the soul-returning dungeon, and you will enter instead. According to our Information, there will be 10 players when the Soul Resurrection is activated next, and my highest ability can replace 8 of them."
Bai Wan and others nodded after hearing this, with a trace of curiosity in their eyes.
It is quite a magical ability. It can actually replace the person who originally participated in the weird game. This ability is very convenient.
Just listen to Li Shoushi say: "The cooldown time of his scarecrow substitute is also very long, and now it has just cooled down. Before, we had no official way to enter the game through formal channels. We could only go to the village to passively enter the game. In that case, we obtained The amount of information is very small.”
“Many of the Trick Hunters and villagers will become NPCs in the game after entering the game, so there should be many Trick Hunters who survived and became members of that world. You guys If you verify your identity, you can also seek help from them. "
"Many villagers have been invaded and forced to live as indigenous people, and try to protect them as much as possible." br>
Everyone nodded after hearing this.
To put it simply, there are two ways to enter this game. One is to enter through the normal way-the weird game. Just like the scarecrow currently replaces the original players, they will follow the normal script route.
Others were directly involved, and those characters could only play some insignificant supporting roles as NPCs.
They have all read the general information about the soul return.
Then when the time came, the young man displayed his own scarecrow.
Eight thin silk threads hang from the sky, and eight scarecrows are tied to them.
The scarecrow hugged everyone in Bai and Anhui, and then a message came in their minds.
【Ding——The special ability "Scarecrow" is detected, and the original player will be replaced in the dungeon "Return to Soul". 】
【Replacement successful, copy "Recovery" starts now! 】
Then Bai Wan and others felt a flash of white light in front of their eyes and disappeared from the headquarters.
Then Bai Wan gradually discovered that his perspective had changed to that of another person.
…
Fang Xiang was sitting in the train, feeling a little tired from the long journey.
He hasn't eaten for a long time, but he's not hungry yet. He can't eat every time he's on the train.
He took another look at the two suitcases placed on the carriage. After they were still placed safely, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
It was a gift for his girlfriend’s parents. This was his first time meeting his parents, so he was very nervous.
My girlfriend’s sister unfortunately passed away some time ago, so my girlfriend had to go home to attend her sister’s funeral, and she went with her.
He and his girlfriend have been in a relationship for three years in college, and now they are meeting each other’s parents for the first time.
I wonder if my girlfriend’s parents are very strict?
Fang Xiang was a little uneasy. He was the kind of person who was easily nervous, but now he felt even more nervous.
"Don't be nervous, my parents are still very kind." My girlfriend Chu Jiao said soothingly.
"How could it be? I'm not nervous." Fang Xiang said calmly with a sullen face.
My girlfriend smiled when she saw this and did not expose his lie.
Because they were tired from the journey, they were not in the mood to talk, so they just lay down to rest and play with their mobile phones.
My girlfriend’s home is a small coastal city, somewhat remote and not even accessible by railway.
“We’ve arrived at the station. Let’s go down and transfer to the bus.” His girlfriend pushed Fang Xiang.
After they got off the train, they still needed to transfer to a bus to reach the city.
Getting on the bus, Fang Xiang looked around.
There were not many people on the bus, they were sparse, and the driver kept complaining.
He can't make much money at all, and needs subsidies from the local government, but because this is the only vehicle in the city that connects with the outside world, it has to exist.
Looking at the unfamiliar environment, Fang Xiang became nervous again.
"Don't be afraid. My parents are easy to talk to. They are just a little bit old-fashioned. People in this city are like that." His girlfriend Chu Jiao said after handing Fang Xiang a bottle of water.
After Fang Xiang drank the water, he felt a little relieved and asked again: "Is there anything I need to pay attention to? It's the first time I met my parents and they didn't know the gifts I prepared. Is it enough..."
"That's enough. The two of them are usually very frugal! They don't care much about gifts. Of course, there is one thing that needs to be paid attention to."
Suddenly he said with a pause.
Fang Xiang also turned on the water and listened carefully.
Just listen to Chu Jiao say: "The only thing you need to pay attention to is that our city has a rather strange tradition. You also know that we are a coastal city, and mirages appear from time to time, and our family is not familiar with mirages. It’s quite taboo, so it’s best not to bring up the topic of mirages when chatting.”
“And if you really encounter a mirage, leave quickly and don’t stand alone on the beach for too long.”
Fang Xiang was a little confused after hearing this. What kind of custom is this? Can't talk about mirages or stand alone on the beach for too long?
Chu Jiao shook her head and said: "I don't know very well, but I have been like this since I was a child. You also know that I left this city to go to school outside when I was very young, and my grandpa accompanied me. . So I am really not familiar with my hometown. In short, the older generation seems to be a little scared about this matter. They say mirages are bad things.”
After hearing this, Fang Xiang felt a little ridiculous and said: "A mirage is just a weather phenomenon caused by the refraction of light."
There is nothing to be afraid of. It seems that his girlfriend's elders are a little superstitious.
After hearing this, Chu Jiao rolled her eyes and said: "I know you don't believe this, but mirages are indeed somewhat mysterious. After all, there are many scenes. In fact, we have not found the real scene in reality. It is said that there were people in the past. Seeing the scenes of ancient people fighting in the past, if it was due to the refraction of light, this would be impossible."
After hearing this, Fang Xiang said: "Those are just rumors on the Internet, or some of them come from people. It’s just some imagination. The scenery can actually be found in reality, but they imagined other scenes. It has been a long time and cannot be confirmed.”
Fang Xiang has never believed in these things.
"Okay, okay, I don't want to argue with you, maybe it's just like what you said, but no matter what, this is the custom in my hometown, do as the Romans do." Chu Jiao shook her head and handed He gave Fang Xiang a piece of bread and said.
Fang Xiang took it without saying anything, and slowly ate some bread to cushion his stomach.
That's right. Although he doesn't believe it, he is his girlfriend's elder after all, and he has to respect her.
The bus got off soon.
The whole city is relatively small and gives people a very quiet feeling.
"The transportation here is not very convenient, but the pace of life is relatively slow, which is suitable for retirement. If you walk a few kilometers over there, you can see the sea." Chu Jiao introduced to Fang Xiang with a smile.
Fang Xiang feels the place where the person he loves grew up, and feels both familiar and strange at the same time.
Because the city is not big, I quickly walked to my girlfriend’s house, which seemed to be a relatively wealthy family in the city. There was a large house in a community near the sea, like a villa.
“I didn’t expect that my girlfriend turned out to be a hidden rich woman.” Fang Xiang couldn’t help but joked as he looked at the big house in front of him.
"Don't make trouble, the housing prices here are low. A house of a few hundred square meters is not as expensive as a house of a few dozen square meters in the city."
Fang Xiang and Chu Jiao walked in .
The woman's parents were already walking in front of the door to greet her, and they looked very enthusiastic, which made Fang Xiang relax a little.
It seems that my father-in-law is still very talkative.
Chu Jiao’s parents’ hair is a bit white. Her father wears glasses that seem to be myopic, but he is quite kind. He is very grateful for the gifts that Fang Xiang delivers and keeps stuffing various kinds of things into his hands. food.
"You are a good young man. My daughter will be entrusted to you from now on." Chu Jiao's father smiled and said.
"Don't worry, uncle, I will definitely protect her for the rest of my life." Fang Xiang also expressed his determination in front of his father-in-law.
Fang Xiang gets along very well with his girlfriend's father, and they have a great time talking.
This also made Fang Xiang more and more relaxed.
But after chatting for a while, my father-in-law suddenly fell silent. After hesitation, he still said: "You can wander around this city more, but remember not to go to the beach. If you go to the beach, don't do it." "Stayed for too long."
Fang Xiang was stunned for a moment, and then heard his father-in-law say very seriously: "Remember, if you stay at the beach for a long time and encounter... that thing, remember not to look at it. , run home immediately!"
Fang Xiang also thought of his girlfriend's instructions before coming, and said curiously: "That thing...? Is it a mirage?"
My father-in-law. When the person heard this word, his expression changed slightly and he nodded.
Fang Xiang found it a bit funny when he saw the other party's reaction. Why was it so mysterious?
He wanted to say that mirage is just a natural phenomenon.
But thinking about what my girlfriend said before about her parents being stubborn, she didn’t say anything.
People of that era generally had little knowledge and had no education, so they were expected to be superstitious.
So Fang Xiang nodded, indicating that he understood.
Then Fang Xiang had dinner with his girlfriend and her family.
Then the girlfriend went to visit other relatives with her parents.
Because their sister died during this period, they relied on these relatives for a lot of help, so they went to express their condolences.
Since Fang Xiang is not married yet, it is not suitable to visit, so Fang Xiang wanders outside alone.
The pace of this city is indeed a bit slow, and everyone seems not too busy. There are many grandparents and grandparents walking leisurely outside, and some children are playing.
It would be nice to live in this city, Fang Xiang couldn't help but sigh.
Unconsciously, the sound of waves came from ahead.
Huh?
Fang Xiang couldn't help but froze for a moment and looked forward, only to realize that he had arrived at the beach without knowing it.
The water flows from far to near, and finally flows to the beach
