Play Speak
Xue Jian came back to her senses after hearing this, her expression quickly returned to calm, and she shook her head and said, "Nothing."
"You didn't look like nothing happened just now. Don't hide it from me if you have something wrong." Chen Bei said.
"It's nothing, I just mistook him for the wrong guy. I saw a player who looked familiar, like a former opponent. But when I looked again, I realized he wasn't."
"I think you're lying to me..."
"It's nothing really."
Xuejian insisted, so there was no need to ask any more questions.
Chen Bei and his group were about to set off. Before leaving, he sent a private message to Leo.
Zero: [You guys are more than capable enough. Is there any other reason why you brought me in?]
Leo: [Didn’t I tell you that, first, I want to help you resolve the conflict with the Brotherhood, second, out of friendship, I want to take you through the game together, and third, I value your strength.]
Zero: [Is that all? If there is another reason, tell me now, I won't blame you. But if you hide something from me, it will hurt our feelings.]
Leo: [Brother, you think too much! There is really no other reason, and there is no conspiracy against you. You are just suffering from paranoia. But I can't blame you, the players are all crazy and it's hard for them to trust each other.]
Zero: [Okay then. I'm just being overly suspicious.]
Leo: [I put a lot of effort into getting you to join. The leader of this project is T00. I said a lot of good things to him before he allowed you to join.]
Ling Degree: [I will thank him again when I have the chance.]
Leo: [Don’t just thank him, thank me too!]
Zero: [Next time I meet a strong gay, I will introduce him to you.]
Leo: [? ? ? ]

Chen Bei's team set off.
In addition to him and Xuejian, the star-crossed couple, there are three other members of the strategy team.
The few of them got to know each other briefly and at least remembered each other's names.
Among the three, the one who played the game called "Green Wave Section" was more friendly towards Chen Bei and the others.
Green Wave stood at a T-shaped intersection, pointed around and said, "We don't have any clues right now. Should we split up and gather intelligence?"
"Okay, let's divide into two groups." Chen Bei said.
"Actually, I want the five of us to fight on our own and expand the scope of investigation. After all, we are all on the same side in this game."
"It's just a nominal cooperation, there's no guarantee that all players are on the same page. Plus, the game itself is dangerous. It's too fragmented and not very safe."
"You are quite careful."
"The grass on the grave has grown so high for the careless player."
"Haha, that's true."
Just when the five people were about to act separately, a fortune teller in a dark blue gown, holding up a fortune-telling banner, muttered something.
"I know yin and yang, I know the Eight Trigrams, I can tell good and bad fortune, I can predict fate and fortune... Ladies and gentlemen, if I'm right, you are looking for something, right?"
The fortune teller came closer.
He was tall and thin, with a moustache, sunglasses on his face, and a bowler hat on his head. He acted like a master, with his chin raised and his eyes looking not at people's faces but at the sky.
Several players exchanged glances.
Some plot-related NPCs still need to be taken seriously, and you can't just focus on fighting and killing them.
The green wave section continued: "Sir, you are right, we are indeed looking for something."
"Not only do I know what you are looking for, but I also know what you are looking for," said the fortune teller.
"Then just tell me straight. If you are right, we can discuss everything. We have always respected capable masters."
"You're looking for eyes! Different colored eyes!"
What the fortune teller predicted was really right.
In this case, either the fortune teller had overheard something before, or he is really able to tell fortunes and is a key figure in driving the plot forward.
It just so happens that several players are confused, and it would be best if they could get a clear goal with the help of this fortune teller.
So the green wave section became more proactive, applauded to show admiration, and asked where to find the eyes.
The fortune teller smiled mysteriously and said, "The secret of heaven cannot be revealed!"
Everyone who understands this sentence understands it.
Lu Bo Road Section smiled and said: "If you have helped us a lot, we will naturally honor you."
"It's just that filial piety can be big or small, more or less."
At this point, Chen Bei interrupted and asked, "Is 30 yuan enough?"
He had made some money before, but the total was less than 100 yuan, so he couldn't say much.
In the context of this game, 30 yuan should not be a small amount of money for ordinary people.
Chen Bei emptied the wallets of several NPCs to get this money.
Upon hearing this, the fortune teller glanced at Chen Bei, then sneered without saying anything.
The meaning is obvious, it is obviously too little.
"I'll give you all this stack of money." Chen Bei simply took out all his money, including small changes, whole bills, and coins.
The fortune teller still sneered.
Chen Bei had no choice but to take his hand back and shrugged, "This is all the money I have. I can't give you more."
The three people on the Green Wave section could also pay a little money, but it was not much in total and could not satisfy the fortune teller's appetite.
So the Green Wave Road Section began to ask questions, wanting to know how big the other party's appetite was.
The fortune teller beat around the bush, but finally revealed the truth.
It costs 500 yuan for one eye. There is no guarantee of accuracy. We will not be responsible if we cannot find the eye.
And you have to pay first every time.
Players didn't really care about this game-specific currency, so they accepted the price.
For players, making money is not difficult.
You can always get it by stealing or robbing.
"Five people need to find five eyes, and each eye needs 500 yuan for intelligence. Then each of you should go and get the money first." said Lu Bo Lu Duan.
"Okay, let's meet up again when we have enough money." Chen Bei said.
Before leaving, several people asked the fortune teller to wait there. The latter agreed with a smile and waited for them to send money.
Chen Bei and Xue Jian acted together and discussed how to make money on the way.
Chen Bei talked about how he made money in the past.
This approach is certainly not glorious.
Xuejian had no objection to this and even helped to come up with some ideas.
"Robbing passers-by doesn't make money very slowly, so let's just rob a store."
"I can see it."
The two men discussed it and began to look along the street for shops that looked wealthy.
I walked along two streets in a row, and all I saw were steamed bun shops, dim sum shops, and the like. They were all small businesses, and it didn't look like I would make a lot of money.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hooves was heard.
A group of soldiers came from the opposite side of the street. The three leading officers were riding horses and waving whips, looking very majestic. The soldiers behind them were walking, each holding a gun. They seemed to have received rigorous training, and their military appearance was neat and tidy, and they were quite imposing.
Passersby gave way one after another, and Chen Bei and the other man did not cause any trouble and just moved aside obediently.
As the team approached, the young officer at the front glanced at Chen Bei and the other man before leaving.
"This time the background is similar to that of the Republic of China. Look at the weapons of these soldiers, they are all quite old." Xuejian said.
"Don't worry about them, they're just a group of NPCs. They might be killed by some player at any time." Chen Bei said.
The two continued looking, and on the next street, they finally saw a store that might have a lot of money!
