The two met at the entrance of the courtyard. Flowing Maple Three Sighs recognized Yan Xiaozhu, just like how Yan Xiaozhu recognized him. One of them was Big10, while the other was Qi Xian. They were both celebrities, but they weren't exactly friends.
The two of them nodded at each other. Yan Xiaozhu was very friendly toward Drifting, calling him "Brother Drifting." Drifting smiled at her, but he paid attention to Gu Fei. "Why are you here?"
"Haha, just wandering around," Gu Fei said. As Gu Fei said this, he turned to greet the two who were forever drifting with him. "Hi! Left hand, right hand, "Gu Fei called out. He was not confident that he could tell which was his left hand and which was his right hand.
"This is …" Flowing Maple Three Sighs was curious about Gu Fei, a stranger.
Thus, Drifting introduced Gu Fei as the most famous player in the game. He was a legendary existence that was above the Five Roaches. When Three Sighs of Maple heard this, they immediately felt embarrassed. They had long heard of Gu Fei.
Gu Fei hurriedly replied politely, not daring to be rude. In the end, Flowing Maple Three Sighs asked, "Why are you two here? If there's anything you need help with, just let me know! " Flowing Maple Three Sighs had good intentions. He knew very well what kind of treatment a stranger would receive if they entered this area. However, Gu Fei knew that what he was about to do was to cause trouble for them. The other party's mission was issued by Giordano. If he killed Giordano, wouldn't their mission completion rate be deducted by 1000 points? Therefore, the more polite Flowing Maple Three Sighs was to him, the more embarrassed he felt. He decided that it was best not to get close to this person.
Just as he was about to say a few words and leave, Yan Xiaozhu, who was beside him, was overly enthusiastic. She felt that it was a good opportunity to strike up a conversation with Flowing Maple's guild leader, so she said, "That's great, Guild Leader Flowing Maple … Ah! Ouch! "
Yan Xiaozhu suddenly screamed halfway through her sentence. Gu Fei, who was beside her, had suddenly pinched her. Gu Fei was afraid that he did not use enough strength to alert the girl, so he pinched her acupuncture point. He also remembered that he was a weak mage, so he used all his strength. Yan Xiaozhu had been slashed by monsters countless times in this game, but she had never felt such intense pain before. She screamed on the spot and turned her head to question Gu Fei. Gu Fei gave her a look and quickly sent a message: "Don't speak."
Yan Xiaozhu was no fool either. After reading this message, he guessed that Gu Fei might have some other plans. Fortunately, Gu Fei's pinch did not deal continuous damage in the game. The pain disappeared as quickly as it came. Yan Xiaozhu did not think much of it and immediately shut her mouth. But everyone heard her halfway through her sentence. Flowing Maple Three Sighs was looking at her in surprise. "What's wrong?"
At this time, Gu Fei also looked at her and acted surprised. Yan Xiaozhu laughed dryly and said, "Haha, it's nothing. I just suddenly realized that President Flowing Maple is very handsome today. Let's go! " Yan Xiaozhu grabbed Gu Fei and ran away. She was afraid that they would continue to question her, and she would not know how to answer.
The Three Sighs of Flowing Maple were confused. Drifting laughed and said, "Hehe, little girl, you're so weird."
"Uh, yes, yes!" The Three Sighs of Flowing Maple quickly returned to his normal state, looking like a mature adult.
Gu Fei and Yan Xiaozhu hurriedly left. They only relaxed when they disappeared into the fog and could no longer see the people behind them. Yan Xiaozhu immediately complained to Gu Fei, "I almost died because of you."
"Hehe, it's been hard on you," Gu Fei said.
"Then tell me, why didn't you let me mention it to the Three Sighs of Flowing Maple? It was such a good opportunity. Or do you have some secret? "Yan Xiaozhu emphasized the word 'secret'. Clearly, she already knew this was the case.
"It's nothing. It's none of your business. Go, go play with your sister! "Gu Fei said.
"Hey hey! You can't be like this! You kicked me aside after using me. Aren't you embarrassed? "Yan Xiaozhu said.
Children's words were really messy. What did she mean by "used me up"? It was really awkward. Gu Fei thought and said, "I mainly wanted to ask you some questions. Now that I'm done, I want to express my deep gratitude to you. As for the rest, I'll do it myself."
Yan Xiaozhu saw that Gu Fei was clearly unwilling to say anything. She guessed that he didn't want to reveal it, but she was curious and could only say, "Then tell me when you're done."
"That's fine." Gu Fei nodded.
The two said their goodbyes. Gu Fei got his bearings and returned to the tavern. The young master of the Han Family was still there. Gu Fei went up and said, "The binoculars are still with you, right? Let me use them."
"Do you have any progress on your mission?" The young master of the Han Family bit the word 'mission'. Obviously, Gu Fei did not think much of this kind of mission that didn't even appear in the list of missions.
"I'll observe first," Gu Fei said and took the binoculars from the young master of the Han Family.
After leaving the tavern, Gu Fei walked back to the government office compound. He circled around the walls and looked for a place without people. He turned around and said, "Come out, I know you're there."
There was no response.
Gu Fei grabbed a Flesh-Cutting Flying Knife and threw it in a certain direction. "Stop hiding."
After dodging the flying knife, the figure of a bandit was revealed. Yan Xiaozhu said in surprise, "You really know?"
Gu Fei didn't say anything. Actually, Gu Fei knew from the beginning that Yan Xiaozhu had pretended to leave and would soon return to follow him. But he thought that since this girl was so curious, he didn't know what kind of trouble she would cause if he let her do things on her own. He might as well keep her by his side and keep an eye on her, so he didn't pay much attention and let her follow him.
"What are you planning to do?" Yan Xiaozhu followed Gu Fei all the way and was puzzled by his actions. She didn't see anything special about the place that Gu Fei had stopped at. She walked closer and saw that Gu Fei had just taken out a large coil of rope from his pocket and was carefully straightening it. There was a cross hook tied to one end of the rope, and as Gu Fei straightened the rope, he looked up at the tall wall beside him.
"Wow … You're not thinking of climbing up from here, are you?" Yan Xiaozhu was surprised.
"That's what I was thinking," Gu Fei said.
"It's so tall." Yan Xiaozhu looked up. The wall was more than ten meters tall.
"Mm. I was just checking to see if the rope was long enough, "Gu Fei said.
"Then why aren't you pulling it open?" Yan Xiaozhu saw that Gu Fei was still rolling the rope.
"Don't you know how to multiply?" Gu Fei looked at her in disdain. Kids these days were really stubborn. Their education was such a failure.
Only then did Yan Xiaozhu realize that Gu Fei's rope was neatly rolled into circles. Just by multiplying it, she would know how long it was.
"Almost, it's enough," Gu Fei finally announced.
Following that, Yan Xiaozhu saw Gu Fei reach out his hand and throw the hook onto the top of the wall. Gu Fei turned around and pulled with all his might. It was very stable, a success on the first try!
"What do you do?" Yan Xiaozhu was shocked by Gu Fei's professional skills.
"Do you want to do it?" Gu Fei asked her.
"Is it sturdy enough?" Yan Xiaozhu was a little worried.
"Yes," Gu Fei answered confidently. As a professional martial artist, he naturally had to have a professional understanding of the equipment in his hands. He was very clear about how strong the rope was. It was not a problem to hang a person.
"Then you go first," Yan Xiaozhu said. She actually wanted to find a demonstration.
"No need, together." As Gu Fei said that, he pulled out another circle from his pocket like he was performing a magic trick and threw it onto the top of the wall again.
"Is there more?" Yan Xiaozhu asked blankly.
"It's enough," Gu Fei said.
As he said that, Gu Fei had already grabbed the rope on the left. Yan Xiaozhu followed suit. Gu Fei explained to her a little, "Lower your center of gravity. Mainly rely on the strength of your arms. Don't use too much force with your feet, or else the rope will shake. That's right, just like you …" Before Gu Fei could finish his explanation, Yan Xiaozhu had already fallen. Many things looked easy, but when you actually did it, you would realize that there were actually many inherent skills.
"Are you sure you still want to do it?" Gu Fei asked.
"Definitely, definitely, and definitely," Yan Xiaozhu said.
"The basic points are what I've said. Let me demonstrate for you." After saying that, Gu Fei grabbed the rope. His movements were agile, and his rhythm was appropriate. Climbing the wall was like a piece of art to Gu Fei. In the blink of an eye, he had climbed three meters. Gu Fei looked down at Yan Xiaozhu. "How is it?"
"Let me try!" Yan Xiaozhu tried again. This time, Gu Fei's judgment of her was verified. She was a talented girl, born with good coordination. She quickly grasped the essentials. Even though she was not as skilled as Gu Fei, she could still slowly climb up.
"What exactly do you do?" Being so familiar with this job, Yan Xiaozhu really suspected that Gu Fei was doing some kind of special job.
"I'm a teacher," Gu Fei said.
"Tsk …" Yan Xiaozhu curled her lips. She did not know that Gu Fei was telling the truth. She thought that because he was teaching on the spot, he said he was a teacher.
"Hmm, that's it. Stabilize your center of gravity and climb up steadily." Gu Fei continued to instruct.
"Actually, it's fine to shake. As long as you hold on to the rope, you won't fall. In the game, this kind of thing … ah …"
Thump …
Gu Fei helplessly slid back down the rope. He looked at Yan Xiaozhu, who had fallen on her back. "I know that you have more endurance in the game than in real life, but I'm not afraid that you won't be able to hold on. I'm afraid that the hook will fall off."
Gu Fei sighed and picked up the hook that had fallen. He threw it back onto the wall, pulled it tight, and handed it to Yan Xiaozhu.
"You know not to shake around this time, right?"
"I know …" Yan Xiaozhu rubbed her butt, her eyes filled with tears.
"Let's continue!" Gu Fei climbed up the rope and looked at Yan Xiaozhu beside him. This time, the girl finally did not dare to be careless. She carefully followed Gu Fei's instructions step by step. However, she was a little too careful this time, and her speed of climbing was very, very slow. Gu Fei looked up. At this speed, it was very likely that she would run out of strength at the last moment! Even if it was in the game.
However, Gu Fei did not dare to urge her. He knew that the girl was already afraid of falling. The more he urged her, the more nervous she would be, and the worse it would be for her to continue. He could only hope that she would climb more smoothly and gradually pick up speed.
In the end, Yan Xiaozhu was careful to the end. Finally, after climbing more than ten meters, when she was four to five meters away from the top, she turned her head and looked at Gu Fei timidly. "I don't think I can climb anymore."
Gu Fei, who had been walking beside her, nodded and said, "Me too."
"Then what do we do?" Yan Xiaozhu asked.
Gu Fei sighed and pointed upward. Yan Xiaozhu did not know what he meant. As she looked in that direction, she heard Gu Fei say, "Teleportation, move!"
