Gu Fei's own method was actually to find someone. Finding this person and then finding that person was the simplest and most effective way to find someone.
Of course, the person Gu Fei wanted to find wasn't Death Remnant Dream. With his current relationship with Death Remnant Dream, he believed that if he wanted to go east, Death Remnant Dream would point him west. If he said that he wanted to find someone, Death Remnant Dream would tell him that someone's entire family had died during the Ice Age.
The person Gu Fei wanted to find was Xi Xiaotian.
Xi Xiaotian had once said that she was involved in the shady business in this group, and Gu Fei had never used her as a human resource. Thinking back, he actually knew quite a lot of people in the game, mainly people from all over the world. Thinking of Sword Ghost's complicated expression when he saw the wretched guys in the Flower Garden, Gu Fei was silent for a long time again.
He didn't have many friends since he was a child. He focused most of his energy on martial arts and never went to a proper school. In such a social circle, there were almost no opportunities for him to interact with outsiders. When he grew older, he began to come into contact with people in the martial arts circle. But martial arts were already declining, and even the Gu family, who practiced martial arts, didn't practice it anymore, let alone others. This circle was already very small. It was difficult to meet someone, even more difficult to meet someone of the same age, and even more difficult to meet someone of the same age and get along with them. Even if they did meet, they would be far apart from each other, and would disperse after a brief exchange of blows.
It could be said that Gu Fei had lived alone for the past twenty-five years with martial arts as his companion. Even though he was teaching in school now, he was just an ordinary colleague with other teachers. For Gu Fei, there was no one who had a real common language with him.
Now that it was the game, everyone had a common topic: the game.
Apart from that, it was obvious that the leaders of the major guilds had taken the world hegemony as a common language with Gu Fei and pulled him into their groups through their connections.
There were also the Flower Garden Immortals, who treated women as a common language and idolized Gu Fei, hoping to learn from him.
There were also the Prince Elite Group, who were all outstanding talents in this world and dragged him along to look down on everyone else.
There were also the Purple Crystal Reborn girls, who liked to gossip and join in the fun. Gu Fei was once the core of their gossip.
These were all mixed together by accident. Apart from these, there was also the Coward's Savior, who could talk about martial arts with Gu Fei. Although his level was too low, he could only listen to what Gu Fei said. The two of them were like teacher and student, and there was no discussion between them. Apart from that, there was also Xi Xiaotian, a girl who had the same hobbies as him, but was unable to display them.
Although she was just using trickery, he was using kungfu …
But why do these two words rhyme? Gu Fei was distracted.
While he was arranging a meeting with Xi Xiaotian, Gu Fei casually glanced at his friends list. The students were beginning to come online one after another. When the last name lit up, Student Ah Fa, as the student representative, immediately summoned Gu Fei. Other miscellaneous comments also came out.
He brought along quests, leveling, and everything else he could.
He gave them money, equipment, scrolls, anything that could be given.
Gu Fei could tell that these students had probably been oppressed by their teachers too much, and this was a chance to extort them with their lives. Yesterday, when they were gathered together, they had to line up, shout slogans, and march forward. Even such an embarrassing situation could not make them back down …
"Are you all done with your homework?" Gu Fei replied indifferently.
"Teacher, today is the weekend!" The students bared their fangs and brandished their claws. Who knew if they had some sort of secret plan to use the weekend to extort Gu Fei.
Gu Fei was calm. He did not care much about these things in the game. They were all his students, and it was fine to let them take advantage of the situation. But he had already given them all the equipment yesterday, and he did not have any money either. Bringing along leveling? There were more than 20 of them, and there was no place for more than 20 people to level together. As for bringing along quests … There was no such thing as bringing along quests. These things were mainly used to run errands. If they encountered a battle that they could not win, they could ask for help. But what was the point of running errands? Oh, people like Imperial Shenming, who had a poor sense of direction, needed to be brought along. As for the others who brought along quests, they were definitely people like Immortal Amidst Flowers, using this as an excuse to pick up girls and bring them around the world.
However, the students were very quick-witted. It was not practical for more than 20 people to level together, so they split into two teams and let Gu Fei take turns leading them. As for how much experience Gu Fei would sacrifice to bring them along, they did not care. They were brazenly using the excuse of extorting their teacher. How could this be considered extortion if they did not suffer any losses? Surely the teacher would not punish them to run the field for something like this!
Gu Fei did not mind, but he had some matters to attend to. He told the students that he would be there in a bit, and then went back to work.
Gu Fei saw Xi Xiaotian next to the fountain at the center of Cloud Peak City.
This girl was always dressed in a weird way. Gu Fei already knew that she was an Archer, but she was currently wearing a mage robe that dragged on the ground. Underneath the robe was a Thief's Cloak. Otherwise, there was no way to explain how she was wearing a hat. Only a Thief's Cloak would have such a hoodie style.
Gu Fei waved at her as he walked up to her.
"That's rare. You actually took the initiative to find me. What do you want?" Xi Xiaotian went straight to the point.
"What happened last time?" It had only been a few days since Xi Xiaotian was killed, but Gu Fei had not asked about her. That time was a misunderstanding. Gu Fei did not help her on purpose, so he felt a little apologetic after the incident.
"Nothing happened! This kind of thing happens all the time! I was stabbed by someone just now! " Xi Xiaotian said as she took out a piece of bread from her pocket and slowly chewed on it. She was probably trying to replenish the HP that she had lost after that stab.
Gu Fei was not in the mood to get involved in Xi Xiaotian's career dispute, so he directly skipped the topic. "Are you still in that place? The one that dropped equipment. "
"Oh, them! Their business didn't do well, so we don't have much contact anymore. But we still have some contact. I heard that you made Little Can very miserable yesterday! "Xi Xiaotian said.
"He asked for it," Gu Fei said indifferently.
"Why are you looking for me now? Do you want to get information and continue hunting me? "Xi Xiaotian said coldly." I won't say anything. I'm just trying to make a living. Why do you have to kill me? "
"Make a living?" Gu Fei didn't understand.
"That's their job. They're from the studio. They drop equipment and the boss pays them. It's that simple," Xi Xiaotian said.
"Oh, then it's not easy to make a living." Gu Fei said.
"Especially when I met you," Xi Xiaotian said.
"I'm really unlucky. So I better find another way to make a living! "Gu Fei said indifferently.
"Looks like you have something else to talk to me about!" Xi Xiaotian was also a smart person. From his words, he could tell that Gu Fei didn't have any intention of upholding justice and hunting down this group of people.
"It's like this. When Remnant Dream died yesterday, he dropped this equipment. It's very high quality. I don't know where he got it from," Gu Fei said.
"Oh, you want to find out who the owner is and return it?"
Gu Fei nodded.
"You're really too noble. Standing here, I feel like I'm a microorganism." Xi Xiaotian's words were filled with ridicule, but his face was expressionless. Gu Fei couldn't figure out what he was thinking.
"Where's the item? What is it?" Xi Xiaotian asked.
There were two daggers. Gu Fei casually took one out and handed it over.
Xi Xiaotian took a look and said, "Now that the dagger is in my hand, aren't you afraid that I'll run?"
"No …" Gu Fei's other hand held onto the sword.
"It's useless even if you kill me. The item is still on me," Xi Xiaotian said.
"Then run!" Gu Fei said.
Xi Xiaotian didn't move and handed the dagger back, "I've never seen this equipment before."
"Oh?" Gu Fei was puzzled. However, he also knew that there was no need for Xi Xiaotian to hide this.
"If I'm not wrong, I'm afraid that only Little Can can explain the origin of this equipment," Xi Xiaotian said.
"What do you mean?" Gu Fei asked.
"I'm confident that I know all the equipment they got, but I've never seen this set of green letters. Someone must have hidden it. Since you said that Remnant Dream died, then he must have hidden it, "Xi Xiaotian said.
"So he's really the only one who knows who dropped it?"
"Yes. Also, it's very likely that this item wasn't dropped by anyone. They were a professional group of robbers, so they would definitely aim for someone's valuables and then purposefully blow them up. Under these circumstances, how could such an unknown equipment be hidden? "Xi Xiaotian said.
"Maybe they didn't know at the start, but it fell out when they died?" Gu Fei said.
"Why wouldn't they use such an exquisite equipment if they could? If they couldn't use it, they would either auction it off or store it safely in the warehouse. Why would they keep it in their pockets? "Xi Xiaotian said.
"That makes sense. Then what do you mean? "
"Maybe they were fighting a boss, or it dropped by chance during a quest, and Little Can hid it. I don't think I need to explain his motive! "
"Understood." Gu Fei nodded.
"So, if you want to talk about the owner of this item, it can only be Little Can. Do as you see fit! "Xi Xiaotian said.
"Then I'm the owner now, tsk tsk." Gu Fei looked at the dagger in his hand.
"You got lucky … Then I'm leaving, see you tomorrow," Xi Xiaotian said.
"Tomorrow?" Gu Fei was puzzled.
"Isn't tomorrow the mercenary group finals?"
"Oh? You're in the Black Hand mercenary group? "Gu Fei was surprised.
"Hmph, you have to be careful, I'm very despicable." Xi Xiaotian raised his hand and made a shooting gesture at Gu Fei, then turned around and left.
"Despicable …" Gu Fei was silent.
