Chapter 207 Cang Ling Sword Discussion (Twenty-Two)

()    After climbing over the giant crocodile's corpse, Bei Ling and Xiao Tan continued to move forward. Because they had walked this section of road before, they unconsciously quickened their pace when they walked again. A few minutes later, the two people passed the place where they first encountered the monster.

After walking for another section, the two people's eyes suddenly opened up. The gradually widening tunnel finally connected to a cave with a very large space. There are groups of bell stones distributed on the ground and the top of the cave. Under the light, these stone crystals are colorful and in various shapes, which is a spectacle. Because the surrounding stone walls are rugged and uneven, and they are shaded by the stone groups, the whole picture of the cave cannot be seen at a glance.

"Separately look... to see if there is a tunnel leading to other places." Bei Ling said.

Xiao Tan nodded and pointed to his side: "Then I'll go there." Then he walked away.

They both have lighting equipment, and the sound transmission effect in this cave is also good. As long as there is no fork in the road, there is no need to worry about getting separated. So Bei Ling didn't say anything more and quickly walked in another direction.

Unfortunately, Bei Ling's luck was not good. The side she walked on soon ran out of road. After crossing a pothole-filled area, a relatively large pool of water appeared in front of her, similar in size to the one she fell into before. However, the top of the cave here was closed, and the stone walls surrounding the pool on three sides also declared that this was a dead end.

She turned back all the way and soon came to the place where she and Xiao Tan separated, and then she went in the direction where Xiao Tan had just walked. Not long after, she saw the light and Xiao Tan's elongated shadow behind a rock in front.

Xiao Tan also heard her approaching footsteps and turned around from the corner and stuck his head out: "Did you find anything over there?"

"No road." Bei Ling replied, and then asked: "What about you? What are you looking at there?"

"I think I found a door." Xiao Tan replied.

"Oh?" Bei Ling came to Xiao Tan while talking, and she also saw the so-called "door".

It was a three-dimensional octagonal sphere with a metallic surface. It was larger than a refrigerator and blocked a place that looked like a tunnel entrance. On the side of the device facing them, there was a piece of metal in the middle with a different color. When you touch it, a game menu will appear in front of the player. At first glance, it was obviously a very pure game setting and had nothing to do with the world view of the script.

"Is it a puzzle..." Bei Ling asked.

"Touch that place with your hand." Xiao Tan pointed to the piece of metal with a different color and said.

Bei Ling glanced at him, then stepped forward and touched the place where Xiao Tan pointed with her fingertips: "Oh~ This kind of puzzle oah..." When she saw the question in front of her, she immediately changed to a relaxed look, and her tone was already a little proud.

"Oah... This is this kind of question." Xiao Tan continued.

"You are standing here stupidly, just solving this?" Bei Ling asked.

"It is oah, but now that you come to talk to me, I forget everything I thought of before..." Xiao Tan replied.

"The answer is seventy-five." Bei Ling said as he drew the two Arabic numerals on the metal with his finger.

The next second, the surface of the metal sphere instantly changed to the same color as this one. Then it slowly opened from the top like a blooming bud. Pieces of metal plates were folded and laid on both sides of the tunnel and on the ground, unlocking the passage in front of the two eyes.

And there was a piece of equipment hidden in the middle of the sphere, which was now displayed in front of them.

Xiao Tan was surprised and said, "You calculated so quickly?"

"It's a piece of cake." Bei Ling looked up at him and said, "The questions I usually play for fun are more difficult than this."

The puzzle just now was actually just a nine-by-nine Sudoku puzzle, and this puzzle had given quite a lot of numbers by default, which was a relatively simple difficulty. The game menu did not require the player to fill all the empty grids. The player only needed to solve a few specific numbers and find the sum.

Even a third-grade elementary school student could solve this problem, but it might take more time without the help of paper, pen and other recording tools.

To put it bluntly, it is a puzzle that tests short-term memory, mental arithmetic and logical deduction ability. It does not require additional associations, which can be said to be Beiling's strongest point.

"Your usual pastime is terrible... Are you a mathematician?" Xiao Tan said.

"I'm a liberal arts student, okay." Beiling said, "Besides... Where can I find such a young mathematician? I just graduated in two months."

"Really... I always feel that you are the type of science nerd, I didn't expect it." Xiao Tan muttered.

Beiling snorted: "I don't think you are a medical student at all, you are as timid as a mouse"

Xiao Tan just smiled and didn't argue. He walked forward and looked at the equipment inside the metal body and said: "Pick up this item, just in case it is bound by pickup or something."

"I can see that I can't use this. It's really bound by pickup. I'm afraid I'll sell it to the store." Beiling replied: "You pick it up." She was right, because the item on the ground looked like a pair of boxing gloves. Players who specialize in shooting can't even pull the trigger when wearing this, so there's no point in keeping it ready.

Xiao Tan heard this and went over to take the item in his hand.

[Name: Vending Machine Beater]

[Type: Weapon]

[Quality: Excellent]

[Attack power: Weak]

[Attribute: None]

[Special effect: There is a 1% probability of displaying "The Perseverance of the Beater"]

[Equipment requirements: level 25 or above, fighting specialist C or general specialist C]

[Note: Have you ever had money swallowed by a vending machine? If so, you should know that a light tap or a few random punches are all in vain. Only a sharp blow to the point can make the damn machine work as usual.

PS: Yes, I once had an ogre vomit his kidneys out. 】

After Xiao Tan read it, he handed it to Bei Ling and asked her to check the attributes. "Fortunately, it's not picked up and bound. This weapon is not suitable for me at all. Besides, I have to practice eight more levels before I can equip it."

"This pair of gloves will definitely be very powerful for players who are fast and specialize in boxing." Bei Ling looked at the properties of the item and suggested: "If you plan to take it to the auction house, the price can be set higher."

"Well... let's wait until the script is over." Xiao Tan took the items again and put them in his bag.

Then they set off again, entered the unlocked intersection, and started walking along a new stone tunnel.

After walking a few steps, Bei Ling suddenly thought of something, and she asked: "Hey, by the way, you are not short of game coins anyway, why not give the equipment to the leader? It is equivalent to giving him six How many game coins are there?”

"Brother Jue definitely doesn't want it." Xiao Tan said without turning around: "Whether in reality or in the game, he will never accept money given to him directly or indirectly."

"Oh~men's twisted self-esteem..." Sad Spirit said in a long tone.

"You can't say that, it's not just a matter of who's in love with who's self-esteem." Xiaotan seriously denied Beiling's words: "If two friends with a big difference in economic conditions want to maintain their friendship, the most important bottom line is not to There are frequent and unequal exchanges about money. Otherwise, as time goes by, there will be no basic trust and equal conversations between the two parties. "

Sadling looked at him and was silent for a few seconds, then smiled and said: "Listen to your come-over tone...a rich second generation, right?"

"Uh..." Xiaotan hesitated for a moment before replying: "That's right..."

"That's right. It's not a shame. Are you still afraid of admitting that your family is rich?" Beiling said.

Xiao Tan does have his concerns, ever since he was a child, except for the issue he just mentioned about his friends. Another problem that troubled him was...the girlfriends he had dated before were either here for money, or their attitudes began to change after they learned that his family was rich. However, Xiaotan is the type who still feels that the other person has a conscience and a hard time after being deceived. If it weren't for the two bad friends Feng Bujue and Bao Daru who secretly protected him, Wang Tanzhi would have been equated with being taken advantage of.

Xiao Tan turned his head and wanted to explain: "Haha... It's actually not bad. It's not as bad as you thought..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Bei Ling stood on tiptoes like a pet dog and reached out to pat Xiao Tan on the head: "Even if I know your family is super rich, I won't change my attitude towards you." There was a look in her eyes. His true nature was fully exposed: "Because my family must be richer than yours, so in my eyes, you are just a poor person."

"What kind of self-confidence is this... Is your father the richest man in the world?" Xiao Tan asked, but he didn't say it out loud. He just replied: "Well... this is the first time in my life that I have been called poor. , I don’t know why it feels good..."

"This is mean." Sadling immediately answered. The reason why her words were not blocked may be that the system recognized this point of view... As the two of them chatted, a crossroads appeared in the front section of the tunnel.

The three passages with completely different directions looked featureless from the intersection, and there were no signboards to indicate the way forward.

"Which way?" Sadling asked.

"Eh? This should be my line, right?" Xiaotan replied: "Isn't it always you who makes the decision?"

"It's up to you to make a guess at such a clueless choice." Sadling replied.

If Feng Bujue were here, he would have made the same decision, because anyone who has been in contact with Xiao Tan for a while will find that this guy is of good quality... "Well... then..." Xiao Tan raised his head Miner Hat looked left and right, and finally said: "Let's go in the middle."
