Chapter 220 Forcibly bribe the NPC boss and get stuck in the next plot!
"You said it." All the players were surprised.
"I also know the mirage you are talking about. My wife once saw a mirage on the beach and then disappeared. I want you to find her."
After Su Yuening and others heard this, they couldn't help but look at a photo hanging on the wall.
That is a group photo of grandpa and grandma.
At the same time, they also understood why the grandfather suddenly changed his attitude.
Maybe it was because Su Yuening also had a relative who disappeared in the mirage, so the old man felt the same way.
"But where should we find her?" Su Yuening asked.
"My wife also disappeared. She also saw a mirage on the beach."
As he spoke, the old man's expression couldn't help but become excited, and he continued to narrate with a hint of panic in his eyes. .
"My wife was walking alone on the beach that day, and then she told me that she saw a mirage, and the most amazing thing was that there was a restaurant in the mirage that she had never seen in the city."
"I was then I just smiled, thinking that she was a little old and confused. Even though I didn't go to school, I knew that a mirage was just a projection of some kind of light. Since it was a projection of our city, it must be true. It’s a hotel that exists in the city, but maybe we didn’t find it somewhere.”
“But my wife is a little stubborn and thinks that she was definitely right. That hotel is definitely not from our city. , she said that she walked in the city every day, and she didn’t know if there were any restaurants.”
“After I heard this, I didn’t take it seriously at the time. After all, eyesight naturally gets blurred as we get older. But maybe because we are both old and stubborn, we had a fight over this matter. In the end, my wife started not to believe in evil, and in order to prove herself, she started looking for that non-existent restaurant in the city. "
“I didn’t say anything at the time. After all, she had retired and was bored staying at home. She had something to do, so I left her alone. In this way, she went to look for her one day after day. A hotel that shouldn’t exist.”
Su Yuening and others listened silently and said nothing.
I just heard the old man say with some fear and self-blame: "Then one day she went for a walk in the city, and she never came back. I should have believed her earlier, and should not have let her go looking for her. Something."
"Is it possible that grandma got lost or encountered an accident?" Su Yuening looked at the self-blaming old man and asked after hesitation.
The old man shook his head and said unnaturally: "No, I have a friend who sells snacks on the street. He told me that he saw my wife and he saw her entering the house. I went to a restaurant...and when I asked him what restaurant it was, he was a little vague and his eyes were confused."
Then the old man's tone became a little panicked.
"At that moment, I felt chills all over my body. It was obviously under the scorching summer sun, but I shivered. I knew that my wife had found the non-existent restaurant in the mirage that she had been looking for."
“I didn’t know where to look for her at the time, or even whether she was still in this world. It’s been a long time now, and this has always been an obsession of mine, so can you get my wife back? I know she is gone. If you can finally tell me how she left this world, whether she was in pain, or give me a relic of hers as a memory, I will be satisfied."
< br>After listening to the old grandpa’s rambling words, Su Yuening and others were moved and at the same time fell into deep thought.
A restaurant that doesn’t exist sounds weird.
How to find this? There is no way at all, right?
The old man couldn’t help but feel sad when he looked at the photo.
“My old lady has been with me all my life, and I still can’t forget her. We have been together for more than 30 years. Man, how many 30 years are there in this life. Although we always quarrel when we are together. She had a rough life, but when she disappeared, there was still an empty space in her heart."
Li Guo and the others couldn't help but look at each other.
It seems that this non-existent restaurant is the next part of the game.
They must complete the exploration mission of this restaurant to obtain information.
Everyone couldn't help but look relaxed at this moment. Finally, they had some clues, so it was not in vain.
"Okay, Grandpa, we will try our best to find that restaurant and help you check the traces of the old lady." Su Yuening said very politely.
Just when they were about to leave, Bai Wan walked out of the kitchen. He had kicked all the empty jars in the kitchen to pieces.
He also heard the previous conversation. He also walked to the grandfather with some curiosity, and then took out a large gold coin from his pocket.
Then he said: "Grandpa, we won't do the task. How about I exchange this gold coin for your information?"
The system states that Bai Wan's gold coin can be used to bribe NPCs. , I don’t know if it will work.
Everyone was staring blankly at the gold coins in Bai Wan's hand, wondering what his family wanted to do.
How can I not do this task even if I say I won’t do it? It’s about my wife.
That was a thirty-year relationship...
Then, Li Guo and other players were dumbfounded to see the old man looking at the big gold coin, his eyes shining, and then He took the gold coin in his hand, opened his mouth and bit it with his teeth.
Then the old man put the gold coins in his pocket. His serious face disappeared and was replaced by a kinder smile.
He smiled and said: "Oh, I guess you young man is so thoughtful, okay, if you find it troublesome, then you don't have to go to that restaurant. It's so far away, so you don't have to look for my wife. Oh, the people who have passed away. Just live in memory, people always have to live in the present. Come on, I will tell you the information."
Su Yuening: "..."
Li Guo: " ..."
Zhang Xuerou: "..."
After hearing the old man’s shameless words, the players all opened their eyes wide.
Especially Li Guo.
Damn it, what you said just now was so sad, I almost shed tears, now do it for me.
Didn’t you say that you have been in love for 30 years? Isn’t that what you mean by feeling empty? Are you empty of a gold coin?
But Bai Wan showed a smile and said: "Old man, you are right, look at it, don't always live in the past."
"Oh, young man, you are right. The old man just has no one to wake me up. My wife must be hoping that I will step out of her shadow and live a good life. Now what you have done has completely woken me up. "The old man and Bai Wan had a very happy conversation.
Su Yuening also twitched the corners of her mouth, and couldn't help but complain: "It wasn't Bai Wan who woke you up, but the gold coins in his hand.
Bai Wan kept looking in front of him. The old man stroking the gold coin was also very satisfied with the effect of the gold coin.
At this moment, he didn't even need his wife's relics
Bai Wan also looked at the old man with some interest. This is too realistic.
But this way you can forcibly skip one process and go directly to the next process.
Of course, this is not the main purpose. The main purpose is to verify whether this method works. Pass.
After all, the non-existent hotel sounds like a rather dangerous and weird place, and you should get a lot of exploration points by entering it.
So if you can really find this hotel, you still have to go. Go in and explore
Of course, this link is now omitted, which also saves a lot of time and can enter the main line faster
As for the old man, there is no need to pity him. Since this is the main mission, his actions have already caused countless players and villagers who want to get out to die.
Whether you want news about your wife or want something else, the result of sending everyone to a hotel that sounds weird is the same.
Then, the old man pointed out the window and said: "The cactus in front of me has always been placed in this position. If I remember correctly at the time, from where I had been sitting, the girl was this far away The cactus should be roughly the size of a palm."
The old man gestured with his palm to the cactus in front of him.
Zhang Xuerou walked over and looked at the approximate location, then walked outside alone. She first found the general location, and then under the guidance of Bai Wan and others in the room, she approached the location marked by the uncle.
"Okay, stop here! It's almost here."
Li Guo looked at where Zhang Xuerou was standing now, and it completely overlapped with the uncle's palm. .
Bai Wan and others also brought four shovels out of the house and walked over.
The three of them came to where Zhang Xuerou was standing, then picked up the shovel in their hands and started digging hard
It was much easier to handle once we had the approximate location. After digging for about two or three minutes, the group of people looked overjoyed.
Dang——
A dull sound came from under Su Yuening’s shovel.
"Quick, come here! Dig it out together!" Su Yuening said excitedly.
A few people each shoveled soil, and within a few minutes everyone dug out a wooden box.
The players couldn't help but look happy, patted the dust on it, and then opened the very old wooden box.
Creak——
The contents of the wooden box were revealed. There was a drawing book inside and...
A gold coin?
Seeing this, Li Guo and others could not help but twitch the corners of their mouths again.
Damn, why are there even clues about the key missions including Bai Wan's gold coins? Are your gold coins so pervasive?
And Bai Wan was very surprised and said: "Thank you, everyone, thank you, thank you for your support."
Then he put the gold coins in his pocket.
I didn’t expect that there would be gold coins in this treasure box.
Then Bai Wan curiously opened a picture book on the side, which contained some childish cartoon pictures.
The scene inside is of a little girl standing on the beach. On the opposite side of the sea is a mirage. Inside is a dreamy and beautiful forest with lush trees and various colorful flowers.
Bai Wan looked at this dreamy painting, frowned, and raised his hand thoughtfully to turn the next page, but was interrupted by Su Yuening's hand.
The look in his eyes was very alert, as if to say, "Don't touch it with your hands, and you've missed the key clue again."
Bai Wan looked at Su Yuening's vigilant eyes and felt aggrieved. Bugs didn't happen to him all the time, so this furry monster knew how to be wary of him.
And Su Yuening pulled the aggrieved Bai Wan behind him, and started flipping through the album instead of Bai Wan.
Each page has the same content, also a picture of a little girl and a mirage.
As the girl's height continues to grow, the scenery of the mirage is also constantly changing.
This seems to be the story of a little girl growing up with a mirage.
And the mirage in the picture looks very beautiful and dreamy, not as scary as it is now.
This little girl should be Chu Xuan, right?
What is the significance of this painting? It seems that this girl is not afraid of mirages, and she seems to see it through the picture...
Does the girl have a slight fondness for mirages?
Thinking again, my second uncle once said that mirages only appear after a girl is born.
So does this painting illustrate the connection between girls and mirages?
And the mirages at that time still seemed dreamy and not as scary as the mirages now.
It’s a good message that girls and mirages have a good relationship.
At the same time, the exploration value suddenly reached 40%
Bai Wan and others also looked happy. It seemed that the picture they found was a very crucial prop.
This trip to the beach was not in vain.
Of course it was so smooth, thanks to Bai Wan.
Everyone couldn’t help but look at their family members again.
This abstract family can actually bribe NPCs, and the gold coins bursting from the jar have this effect.
But didn’t this gold coin come from Grandpa’s house?
It was used to bribe him instead. What's the point?
Li Guo and others looked strange.
Using other people's gold coins to bribe others reminded them of those illogical RPG games they played when they were children.
Those games always inexplicably and unreasonably enter other people's homes and take away treasure chests.
"Now that the clues have been obtained, let's go back for the time being?" Zhang Xuerou looked at the seaside. The seaside was very unsafe now, and it might turn into a mirage again at any time.
"Wait a minute, there is something under the wooden box." Su Yuening's eyesight was better, and suddenly she saw a yellow sticker pressed at the bottom of the original wooden box.
Bai Wan picked it up curiously.
I saw a puppet drawn on the sticker, and then the system also popped up a prompt about it.
[Prop name: Puppet Imitation Sticker
Belongs to: Ordinary game props
Effect: It can be attached to any character to make the character perform the same actions or behaviors as yourself. 】
It turned out to be a game prop.
After everyone saw this prop, they couldn't help but fall into thinking.
They didn’t expect to stick to the character and make the same movements as themselves. What is the use of this ability?
"This effect doesn't seem to be particularly strong. I thought it was some good treasure." Zhang Xuerou couldn't help but said with some regret.
Li Guoquan shook his head with experience and said: "Your thinking is wrong. Because of this, this prop may be very important. Maybe this is an important prop."
< br>Bai Wan also nodded.
Some key props are used to clear the game, such as the locator in his initial ghost ship copy, which is used to locate non-existent rooms.
Although it is blocked by my own ability, it is of no use.
After everyone discussed it, they handed over the puppet sticker to Bai Wan for safekeeping. After all, he was the captain of this operation.
And Bai Wan was able to obtain this information by bribing NPCs.
“Let’s go, let’s go back before the mirage appears again.” Li Guo couldn’t help but say.
"Wait a moment, I still have something to do."
