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 to Drifting, calling him "Brother Drifting" in a crisp voice. Drifting smiled at her, but he paid attention to Gu Fei. "Why are you here?"
"Haha, just wandering around." 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 …" Three Sighs of Flowing Maple was curious about Gu Fei, an unfamiliar face.
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 impolite. 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. Of course, he knew what kind of treatment his guild would receive if a stranger entered this area. However, Gu Fei knew that what he was going to do was probably cause trouble for them. Their quests were all issued by Giordano. If he killed Giordano, wouldn't their quest 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 points. He also remembered that he was a weak sorcerer, 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. 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 not stupid. She guessed that Gu Fei had other plans after reading the message. Fortunately, Gu Fei's pinch did not deal continuous damage in-game. The pain came and went quickly, so 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 with great acting skills 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, let's go! " Yan Xiaozhu grabbed Gu Fei and ran away. She was afraid that he would continue questioning her, so she did not know how to answer.
Flowing Maple Three Sighs was confused. Drifting to the side, he laughed. "Hehe, little girl, you're weird."
"Uh, yes, yes!" Flowing Maple Three Sighs quickly returned to his normal state, looking like a mature adult.
Gu Fei and Yan Xiaozhu hurriedly left. They only let out a sigh of relief 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 Flowing Maple Three Sighs? 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.
"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 said, "I mainly wanted to ask you about some things. Now that I'm done, I want to express my gratitude. As for the rest, I'll do it myself."
Yan Xiaozhu saw that Gu Fei was clearly not willing to say it. She guessed that he was not willing to reveal it, but her curiosity was not quenched. She 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 Han Family Young Master was indeed 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 Han Family Young Master emphasized the word "mission". Obviously, Gu Fei didn't think much of this kind of mission that didn't even appear in the mission list.
"I'll observe first," Gu Fei said as he took the binoculars from the Han Family Young Master.
After leaving the tavern, Gu Fei walked back to the government office compound. After looking around the walls, he found an empty spot and said, "Come out. I know you're there."
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 did not say anything. Actually, from the beginning, Gu Fei knew that Yan Xiaozhu had pretended to leave and would soon return to follow him. However, he thought that since the girl was so curious, he did not know what kind of trouble she would cause if he let her do things on her own. It was better to keep her by his side and look after her, so he did not pay much attention and allowed her to follow him.
"What are you planning to do?" Yan Xiaozhu had been following Gu Fei all the way and was puzzled by his actions. She did not see anything special about the spot Gu Fei had chosen to stop 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 exactly 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 wondering 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 down on her. Kids these days were really stubborn. Their education was such a failure.
Only then did Yan Xiaozhu realize that Gu Fei had rolled the rope neatly into loops. 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 stretch out his hand and throw the hook up 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.
"It's enough," Gu Fei answered confidently. As a professional martial artist, he naturally had a professional understanding of the equipment in his hands. He was very clear on how strong the rope was. It was not a problem for him to hang a person.
"Then you go first," Yan Xiaozhu said. She actually wanted to find someone to demonstrate.
"No need. Together." As Gu Fei said that, he pulled out another loop from his pocket as if he was performing a magic trick. Once again, he threw it onto the top of the wall.
"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 briefly explained to her, "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 sway. That's right, just like you …" Before Gu Fei could finish explaining, Yan Xiaozhu had already fallen. There were many things that seemed easy, but when it was actually done, one would realize that there were actually many intricate techniques involved.
"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." As Gu Fei finished speaking, he grabbed the rope. His movements were nimble, and his rhythm was appropriate. Climbing a wall was a despicable act, but Gu Fei made it seem like an art. 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, it verified Gu Fei's previous judgment of her. She was a talented girl who was born with excellent coordination. She quickly grasped the essentials. Although she was not as skilled and elegant as Gu Fei, she could still slowly climb up.
"What exactly do you do?" Being so familiar with such a 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 speaking the truth. She thought that because he was teaching on the spot, he claimed that 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 sway. As long as you hold the rope firmly, you won't fall. In the game, this kind of thing … Ah …"
Thump …
Gu Fei helplessly slid back to the ground along the rope. He looked at Yan Xiaozhu, who had fallen flat 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 claw hook will fall off."
Gu Fei sighed and picked up the claw hook that had fallen off. He threw it back onto the wall, pulled it tight, and handed it to Yan Xiaozhu.
"You know not to sway this time, right?"
"I know …" Yan Xiaozhu rubbed her butt, her eyes filled with tears.
"Then let's continue!" Gu Fei climbed up the wall while looking 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 up 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 about 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 accompanying her and advancing side by side, nodded. "Me too."
"Then what do we do?" Yan Xiaozhu asked.
Gu Fei sighed and emptied his hand to point upwards. Yan Xiaozhu did not know what he meant. As she looked in that direction, she heard Gu Fei say, "Teleportation, move!"
