Chapter Twenty-Five Encounter
"In the tea house with intervals!" Feng Xiao Xiao replied, One Sword Charging The Sky.
Wan Shi Tong had already shouted: "Nothing's going on, I'm out of here!" A flash of white light and he vanished from the spot once again.
In the blink of an eye, a sword burst into the sky and appeared in front of him. The wind whispered to look at him as if he didn't seem to have just gotten drunk at all, and asked in puzzlement: "How? Can you sober up from wine by going offline for a while and then coming back online?"
"What's going on? I used internal force to squeeze out the wine!"
"Why didn't you force me earlier!"
"I went offline for a bit to use the restroom, and when I came back after a few minutes, you were gone! I was just practicing my skills under that tree, didn't I just finish?"
"Oh..."
"Where is my big package? Is it with you?" Yi Jian Chong Tian Bian said while looking at the large package on the table.
"Can't you see?! You forgot to take it when you logged off, so I'll just hold onto it for you!"
"What is this?"
"This is the ore used for forging weapons!"
"Really? What mineral!"
"Look for yourself!"
The wind blew open the package, and in front of me appeared a large piece of dark black metal-like object. Fixing my eyes on it, the displayed item name was: ???
"Damn it, why isn't it showing what it is!"
"Yes, now it's just that I don't know what it is, so I took him to various blacksmith shops everywhere to identify it, but no one can tell!"
"I've seen you several times but I never saw you bring it with you!"
"That's just when things were conveniently delivered to the blacksmith's shop! The first time you saw it, that day I had just gotten it!"
"No wonder you said your mood was too good at that time!"
"Yes, when I first got it, I was so excited that I didn't sleep for several days. Unfortunately, even now I still don't know what this is. I've been to almost all the big cities in the game, but not a single blacksmith can identify what it is!"
"Where did you get this thing?"
"Job well done!"
"A very simple task, an old man asked me to help him kill a monster, I went and came back and he gave this to me, saying it's his family heirloom!"
"Is there also some task that needs to be done in order to know what this is?"
"I went to find that old man at that time, he said he didn't know either! Now I don't care about it anymore, just give it to you!"
"How can you say that!" I thought you said you'd take me there a long time ago.
"It doesn't matter, I already have a weapon. You seem to not have one yet, so just figure out how to make it into a weapon yourself. After all, something you get from doing quests shouldn't be too bad!"
"...Actually, you gave it to me when you were drunk!"
"Really? People say that a drunk man speaks the truth. It seems I also wanted to give it to you deep down, why are you being polite?"
The wind whispers in her heart: "You're acting like you're getting rid of a hot potato!" But she says out loud: "Then I'll take it!"
"Alright, keep it for now. When you've forged a good sword, don't forget to show me! I'm off!" With that, he jumped out of the window and left.
"Bang, thud! …… A few loud noises, the wind rushed out to take a look and saw a shoe hanging from the windowsill with a sword stuck in it. The person was lying on the ground, having smashed a small stall selling daily necessities with their own body. The NPC was pulling him away, demanding compensation! In his heart, he couldn't help but mutter: Didn't they say he's an expert? Could it be that the alcohol hasn't fully worn off yet?"
Turning back to take a closer look at this big thing, I found that it would faintly reveal strips of emerald green. I thought to myself, "This thing is not simple." After asking the old man for his address, I'll go and ask around!
Look at the time, it's almost when Liu Ruoxue used to go online. My heart still has a wave of panic. What will Xiao Yatou be like? What if she's an extremely ugly dinosaur?!
Just as he was daydreaming, another message arrived, and sure enough it was Liu Ruoxue, telling him to meet at their usual spot.
Rushing to the so-called old place, which is actually the city gate that must be passed through every day for leveling up. On the road, there are countless pairs of handsome and beautiful divine couples. Due to concerns about appearance issues, many evil wolves who had been holding back for several days took action today, and the speed matching index reached its peak on the first day of operation, and is still rising according to current trends.
At the city gate, people come and go, the wind whispers all around, searching for a familiar figure, but to no avail.
Suddenly, a rough male voice came from beside him and called out: "Feng Xiao Xiao!"
The wind is like a thousand years of ice cellar, the cold air directly enters the bone marrow, looking up at the sky and sighing that the heavens are not fair, creating and playing with people. I didn't even talk about love, but I still have the opportunity to experience this emotional gap brought by the reversal of yin and yang! I thought it's no wonder nobody wants to play with you, it seems only I, a young person who is not deep in the internet, can't see that you are a woman dressed as a man.
As he was lost in thought, the wind blew gently and he turned his head to see a familiar face. He thought for a moment and exclaimed, "You're Swordless! You called me?"
Jian Wuxin was startled by the weak and listless expression of Feng Xiao Xiao, and said: "It's me who called you, how can you not recognize me?"
The wind whistled and he let out a sigh of relief, saying: "Oh! It's you, what are you doing here?"
Jian Wuhendao said: "I'm going to level up, I heard that the mountain near Xiangyang is a great place for leveling up, I came here in search of it!"
Feng Xiao Xiao laughed and said: "In a place like this, which city doesn't have one or two nearby? Why would the system be so unfair?"
Jian Wuheng smiled and said: "That's right, I was bored in Yangzhou, so I came here to take a stroll!"
"The wind whispered: 'I'm still waiting for someone, I'll go practice later too, you go first, and if there's a chance, I'll come find you!'"
The two bid farewell, Jian Wuxin left first, and Feng Xiao Xiao let out a sigh of relief, thinking to himself: "Big brother, you've played me once, did you know that?"
At this time, a sharp and familiar cry rose from the crowd: "Feng Xiao Xiao!"
The wind was blowing gently, and he thought to himself, "Finally, the main character has arrived." He quickly responded with: "This is it! This is it!"
A familiar figure emerged from the crowd, and it was indeed Liu Ruoxue. After the blow just now, Liu Ruoxue being a girl already made Feng Xiaoxiao feel 70% satisfied. Upon closer inspection, she didn't look bad at all, her appearance matched her personality, and one could tell by looking at her that she was an outgoing and lively girl.
Liu Ruoxue ran over and also looked him up and down before saying disappointedly, "Why aren't you handsome?"
Feng Xiao Xiao said: "I didn't say I'm handsome!" He thought to himself: "Why are you speaking so directly again?!"
Liu Ruoxue said: "If he's not handsome, then so be it. Are we still going to level up today?"
Feng Xiao Xiao said: "Whatever you want!" Thinking to herself, somehow your tone seems to have a necessary connection with appearance and level.
Liu Ruoxue suddenly jumped in her thinking and asked instead: "What's on your back?"
"It's something I'm going to use to forge a weapon, someone else gave it to me!"
Liu Ruoxue's mind jumped again: "What kind of weapon do you want to use? Why not come to our Tangmen and forge it into a hidden weapon. It's so big, even if it doesn't have the automatic return attribute, making a few more would be enough!"
Feng Xiao said: "It's not decided yet, I haven't thought it through. Besides, this thing hasn't been appraised yet, and we can't make a move!"
Liu Ruoxue's thoughts returned to the starting point: "Then let's go practice leveling up now!"
Feng Xiao Xiao naturally wouldn't refuse, carrying a large bundle on her back, following Liu Ruoxue out of Xiangyang.
