Chapter 144 Meaning
Zhang Lianshu was about to ask a question, but suddenly a mess of footsteps came from the distance. A group of men from Fengdao Pavilion ran in with torches from the arch leading to the front yard.√∟
“These are players.”
Luo Yu could be heard from the sound of footsteps because their movements were very casual, which was an obvious mark for the player.
Zhang Lianshu nodded: "The show is about to begin soon."
"Yes, if there were no attempts, there wouldn't be so many players coming to get involved."
Zhang Lianshu looked at the group of players taking over the yard's defense system under the command of NPC, but asked: "What did you mean by Xiangxiang just now?"
"I'm asking what purpose do you think Xiangxiang is persistent in searching for me?"
Zhang Lianshu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, I can't understand her thoughts, no, I can't understand her obsession. I don't think she will find you for rational purposes or for interests. Perhaps as Zhao Ying said, does she like you?"
Luo Yu curled her lips and said, "I asked her this question, but she herself had no answer to this question. She said she wanted to find this answer, so she hoped to stay by my side and be friends with me, and hoped that I could help her find this answer that confuses her."
"Oh, so what?"
"Old Zhang, how do you think of Xiu'er and Xiaodie?"
"Do you want to say that they are not for rational purposes or demands of interest?"
"I don't know, in fact, what can I give them? Xiu'er said she likes to be with me, I'm just like her father, Xiaodie said she likes to be with me. Because I always support her and believe her, she is her most trustworthy friend. In addition, Xiangxiang wants to find the truth in her heart, what can I give them?"
"Then... do you think you like being with them?"
"Haha...it depends on how to define 'like'. I think helping them is a meaningful thing, and that's enough."
“Make sense?”
"Yes, it makes sense. The existence of every thing is meaningful. I think before you find the joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness that you once had, it is more realistic to find the meaning of your existence, such as you. If you have relatives, you say that you will not feel happy when you see your relatives, but what about your relatives seeing you?"
Zhang Lianshu was stunned: "When they saw me? Yes, they would be very happy to see me, I can see this."
"You see, your meaning of existence has, and with the meaning of existence, there is a goal, and with the goal, there is a driving force. Pursuing martial arts is also a goal, and making your loved ones happy is another goal. For us, having a goal is enough."
“It’s enough to have a goal?”
Luo Yu nodded vigorously. Zhang Lianshu still couldn't understand why it was enough to have a goal. What exactly was he? Rebirth of life? Or a product? Has this problem been solved?
"Shhh. Come, listen."
Zhang Lianshu terminated all the messy and invalid logic analysis process in his head. He listened carefully and heard it carefully. Sure enough, there were dense footsteps and weapons hitting them from afar. The sound soon became louder and louder, closer and closer, and then suddenly, a battle broke out in the originally calm inner courtyard.
The players who were guarding in every corner suddenly attacked their "companions" around them, or in other words, they never regarded these NPC companions as companions.
The sudden occurrence of the nest caused Feng Dao Pavilion to fall into crisis. In addition to the sects surrounding the pavilion, the surrounding defenses collapsed. The battle was short and fierce. Soon, the white light flashed continuously, and the battle had temporarily stopped.
"It's from Wentian Pavilion in Anyang."
Zhang Lianshu seemed to have understood the forces in Anyang City. Luo Yu nodded. He never cared about these things.
"The secret should be in this pavilion."
Luo Yu whispered, and Zhang Lianshu frowned: "But we didn't find anything inside just now."
"Because we have not wiped out the enemy, the clues will not appear."
The players quickly cleared the front and back yards and surrounded the pavilions. The people in Fengdao Pavilion also made the same choice as Luo Yu and others at the time. They retreated their men to the second floor and guarded the narrow stairs to wait for change.
However, the people from Wentian Pavilion quickly sent an elite team to attack the stairs. Although guarding the narrow stairs is beneficial to Fengdao Pavilion, which has a disadvantage in the number of people, the Fengdao Pavilion can invest quite limited in the narrow stairs and corridors. In this narrow environment, the two sides competed with the combat strength of the elite team, and Wentian Pavilion had the advantage.
Not long after, the people from Wentian Pavilion attacked the second floor step by step. Although the people from Fengdao Pavilion knew what the problem was, their strength was not as strong as others, they could only do nothing.
However, Fengdao Pavilion was not completely waiting for death. While they tried hard to block Wentian Pavilion's attack, they began to set fire on the top floor of the pavilion. After a while, flames had emerged from the windows of the pavilion on the top floor, and the blood-red fire was particularly dazzling in the dark night.
"Oh no, they set fire!"
"The elite team accelerated the attack, and the others carefully searched every corner of the pavilion and dug me three feet into the ground. There must be some secrets hidden inside."
"Call members to go online immediately, support us with all our strength, and lay out defenses in front and back yards and outside alleys."
Originally, both sides were fighting hard, but as soon as the fire broke out, the yard suddenly became chaotic. Players began to yell and adjust the layout. The remnants of the Fengdao Pavilion on the pavilion also began to laugh and scold loudly, and the scene suddenly became lively.
Zhang Lianshu turned his head and looked at Luo Yu and said, "It's lively."
"It's not counting, it's just starting. The treasure will definitely not be burned. This should be a mission mode."
"Did you say that you have to ask for a fire before a clue will appear?"
Luo Yu smiled and pointed to the colorful light that was faintly flashing in the fire: "Look, didn't that appear?"
Zhang Lianshu narrowed his eyes, looked carefully, and sighed: "It was actually hidden on the roof beam. The fire only appeared after the roof beam was destroyed."
Luo Yu shook his head: "If we had killed all the targets just now, there might be other clues. Now it has evolved into a strong attack, in order to advance the process of the situation, it is a natural choice to expose the treasures to the fire."
Zhang Lianshu nodded: "Are we going to grab it?"
Luo Yu glanced at Zhang Lianshu: "Are you so confident? You will be chased by the whole city. Even if you want to take action, wait until the time for the treasures is about to be protected. Besides, are these treasures useful to you?"
"Why didn't it? I have a pursuit to improve my martial arts."
"Okay, then you can do it. Don't think about me, I won't be snatching you something."
Zhang Lianshu looked at Luo Yu and seemed to be evaluating whether Luo Yu had the ability to compete with him, but Luo Yu ignored him.
Zhang Lianshu looked at the colorful light emitted from the fire and shook his head gently.
Luo Yu smiled secretly: "I'm going to quit, where are you?"
"Quit out? Why, even if you don't plan to take advantage of the troublesome situation, it's okay to stay and watch the fun."
Luo Yu shook his head: "This place will definitely become a battlefield later. We are too close to the core of the battlefield. Of course, if you plan to seize the treasure, it is better to stay. I will go to the periphery to check the cheaper ones and do the task by the way."
Zhang Lianshu thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll quit too. Even if I want to get a bargain, I don't have to stay here at this time."
Luo Yu smiled and said that this old guy’s IQ is not low.
The colorful light not only saw Luo Yu and Zhang Lianshu. Of course, the people in Wentian Pavilion also saw it, so the already fierce battle situation suddenly became white and fierce. The two took advantage of the lively fight between Wentian Pavilion and Fengdao Pavilion and secretly retreated. They climbed over the wall without hesitation and returned it along the alley to the rented yard.
As soon as they entered the yard, a large number of players rushed in from the main street. Not long after, the battle happened at the intersection of the entrance of the alley and the main street. Luo Yu and Zhang Lianshu, who were standing in the yard, could guess without reading it. It must be that Wentiange wanted to use the location to block the entrance of the alley to delay time and consume the time for the protection of treasures.
But other guilds naturally would not watch the colorful treasure falling into Wentian Pavilion, so they all tried their best to mobilize their strength to attack the entrance of the alley.
The elite of Wentian Pavilion was still in the Fengdao Pavilion courtyard. The power at the entrance of the alley was relatively weak. Not long after, the entrance of the alley was broken through. The people of Wentian Pavilion knew the importance of the entrance of the alley, so they quickly organized manpower to launch a counterattack at all costs. At the same time, they spread the news of the appearance of the treasure, hoping that the small and medium-sized guilds and free players would stab the opponent's chrysanthemum from behind.
As a result, the entire Anyang City became in chaos.
Luo Yu stood in the yard, listening to the lively battle outside the yard wall, looking at the night sky reddished by the flames, and grinned.
"Old Zhang, I'm going to get a bargain, you can do it yourself."
Zhang Lianshu also smiled: "If I get a baby, I will definitely tell you what it is."
Luo Yu turned his head and smiled: "I guess that treasure must be high-end equipment, maybe it is rare. If you can't use it, you can sell it to me first."
Zhang Lianshu was stunned: "Okay, I'm sure."
The two of them smiled knowingly, and left the yard one by one and the other. Outside the door, it had already become a big battlefield. Luo Yu didn't have to hesitate at all. He was right to kill people when he saw them. The only thing he had to worry about was to avoid those elite teams and the system army and yamen runners standing outside the melee battlefield to watch the fun.
In fact, they are not watching the fun. They just gather together to protect themselves. There are too many players fighting in the melee, and these troops and yamen runners can no longer suppress them. Moreover, the equipment of these guys is standard equipment, all of which are excellent or above. Many players are also deliberately trying to explode these NPC equipment, so they dare not disperse, and they dare not easily interfere with the players' battles.
However, some players will not be polite if they want to stroke the tiger's beard, especially lone thieves like Luo Yu, who will definitely give priority to attracting their hatred.
