Xiaohui had a lot of fun on the trip to L Mountain. It was also her first time going on a long journey in so many years. Naturally, she was very happy.
It was worth mentioning that although Xiaohui was happy, she was not as curious about L Mountain's scenery as Yang Rui had expected. After asking, Yang Rui found out that Xiaohui had been to many places in the game. Naturally, Xiaohui had seen a lot of beautiful sceneries!
The 100% virtual environment was infinitely close to the real world. Players could watch and play as they wished. There was no admission fee. This was one of the benefits that the game provided to the players.
"Brother, do you know what wish I made at the top of the mountain?"
When they went down the mountain, Xiaohui looked at Yang Rui with blinking eyes. The suspended cableway made Yang Rui a little nervous, but this little girl did not seem nervous at all.
"What wish?"
"I'm not telling you! It won't come true if I say it out loud! "Xiaohui smiled mysteriously. Yang Rui knew that he had fallen into her trap again. He smiled helplessly and shook his head.
However, no one would have thought that the wish that Xiaohui made today would come true in the near future. It had even far exceeded her expectations. This was a story for another day.
The three days of the system update passed quickly. Yang Rui logged into the game as soon as the update ended.
Just as Yang Rui had unintentionally thought, during the three days of the system update, the game did not stop the timer. Instead, it was running continuously. Similarly, three days of game time had passed (based on the ratio before the update). Fortunately, Yang Rui had vaguely remembered this matter the moment before he went offline. He gave Wang Hai and Chi Zhong a few words at the last minute.
"Chi Zhong welcomes my lord!"
"Greetings to Constable Blazing Sun!"
Yang Rui had just gone online when he appeared in the meeting room of Mountain Town. Chi Zhong and another person who looked like a pawn in the meeting room immediately came forward to greet him.
"Chi Zhong is here. I was just about to ask you about the purchase of food!" The first thing that came to Yang Rui's mind when he went online was naturally the [Food First] quest! Only by completing this quest would Yang Rui be able to obtain the 1,000 gold reward!
After the system update, the game introduced the Game Pod mode. Yang Rui wanted to buy the Game Pod, and the prerequisite was to obtain the 1,000 gold coins reward!
The price of a gaming pod was 200,000 dollars per unit. Based on the current exchange rate between in-game currency and real currency, Yang Rui would need to exchange at least 1,200 gold coins to afford two gaming pods!
"Reporting to my lord, after three days of searching and purchasing, we have gathered all the food required for the mission. The last batch of food is about to be delivered to the other party! As a matter of fact, the captain of the guards that we hired is also here! "Chi Zhong reported truthfully.
"Reporting to Constable Blazing Sun, I'm the captain of the guards of the caravan." The pawn-like person cupped his fist and bowed again.
"That's good!" Yang Rui nodded. Only then did he notice the change in the way the pawn-like person addressed him. "In the future, just call me Village Chief Blazing Sun. There's no need to call me Constable!"
"This … isn't very appropriate." Chi Zhong hesitated and said.
Although Chi Zhong was young, he had a calm personality and was very thoughtful. He had shown this when he was searching for food. Especially after the system update, Chi Zhong's image seemed to have become more vivid!
"Now that our Mountain Village has been upgraded to Mountain Town, if we still call you Village Chief, I'm afraid it's against the rules. It will also affect our prestige! So it's more appropriate to call you Constable! "
Under Chi Zhong's repeated requests, Yang Rui did not insist. Calling him Village Chief was just a code name, so he did not care too much about it. Since calling him Village Constable was more beneficial for development, then he would just call him that!
"Reporting to My Lord, two days ago, a person dressed as a strategist came to visit our Mountain Town. He insisted on meeting Village Constable. Elder Wang Hai kept him at the checkpoint of Ao Lai Valley. I think he's called Cheng Li. This Mr. Cheng is a bit stubborn, but Elder Wang Hai said that this person is not simple. Although he did not let him in, he did not chase him away either! "
After instructing the soldiers to escort the food, Chi Zhong continued to report to Yang Rui.
"Cheng Li? Who is this person? "Yang Rui frowned." Could it be him?! "
Yang Rui suddenly thought of a possibility! If it really was him, then the drama was going to be huge! However, although that person's name was very similar, it was not "Cheng Li"!
"Let's go and take a look!" With Chi Zhong following him, Yang Rui quickly arrived at the checkpoint of Ao Lai Valley.
"Mr. Cheng, this is Village Constable Blazing Sun of our Peak Pavilion. This is Mr. Cheng Li …"
With Chi Zhong's introduction, Yang Rui quickly saw Cheng Li who was waiting for him at the checkpoint. This counselor-like visitor looked to be around 40 years old. His face was slender, clear, and his eyes were bright and deep. He looked to be very knowledgeable! However, his face looked a bit cold!
"Blazing Sun greets Mr. Cheng. Please take a seat!" Yang Rui very politely invited Cheng Li to a seat and poured tea at the same time.
During the entire process, this Mr. Cheng only nodded slightly and did not speak.
"It is my first time meeting Mr. Cheng. Blazing Sun is very honored. I would like to ask for Mr. Cheng's name. Please enlighten me!"
After the few of them sat down, Yang Rui asked tentatively. As long as he knew the other party's name, Yang Rui would be able to confirm whether the other party was the person he had guessed!
"Idle clouds and wild cranes, what name?!"
This Mr. Cheng in front of him finally spoke. However, he did not reveal any information that Yang Rui wanted!
"Haha, Mr. Cheng is too humble!"
Since the other party was unwilling to speak, Yang Rui did not continue to pester him. Instead, he very politely chatted with the other party. Many famous officials of the Three Kingdoms had weird tempers. Yang Rui could only try to communicate with them.
"This humble one's Mountain Town is located in a remote area. I wonder what Mr. Cheng's intentions are. If this humble one is fortunate enough to be of some help …"
"There's no need to help! I only wish to pass through your checkpoint. Constable Blazing Sun, please let me pass! "
Before Yang Rui could finish his words, this Mr. Cheng had already decisively rejected his good intentions and directly stated his intentions. Furthermore, his tone was very stiff. No wonder Chi Zhong said that this person's temperament was a little tyrannical!
"Alright! We will follow Mr. Cheng's wishes! "
Seeing Cheng Li's firm attitude, Yang Rui's thoughts turned quickly and he directly agreed to the other party's request. After all, they were just entering the checkpoint. The interior of the checkpoint was Yang Rui's sphere of influence. Yang Rui wanted to see what Cheng Li wanted to do! If they were to exit the checkpoint, Yang Rui might even delay for a while.
