Fantasy Westward Journey: Return to 2005

But this is not the worst.

The most embarrassing thing is that this event not only needs to find a large number of NPCs and they will move at will, and the format of NPC names is not uniform, and some symbols even appear!
Some quick-thinking players have guessed at this time that according to the set of rules formulated by Qiancheng, the entire Bianliang City may fall into chaos when the event starts later.

Although the rewards of the event itself are very generous, it is inevitable that some people will make trouble in order to satisfy their own evil tastes.

Once someone opens a trumpet according to the couplet, it will inevitably affect the progress of everyone's search for NPCs, and even the simple ones may be deceived.

"You're so ruthless, Brother Cheng, the rules are formulated without any loopholes..."

"The ID is not uniform, and it has symbols, and the key NPC will move randomly. If this is done, can someone really complete the collection in one day?"

"That's right, Brother Cheng's hide-and-seek is a bit too difficult!"

"If you like to play, don't play! There are so many people in the district, if the rules are not formulated, won't those who like to take advantage of loopholes?"

"That's right, let's talk about whether you can find it or not. At least we must ensure that the initial stage is fair. I support Brother Cheng on this point!"

"Me too!"

Looking at the World Channel, which was already in the midst of heated debate following the announcement of Hide and Seek for All, Fang Yun didn't care, or he had expected it.

Compared with last year, the rules of hide-and-seek this time are indeed a bit more cumbersome, but there is no way around it.

You must know that this hide-and-seek is facing all players in Bianliang City. If you don't block all possible cheating methods in advance, this hide-and-seek will definitely become a game for a few people, and other players can only be reduced to a foil.

Fang Yun didn't care about the World Channel, which was constantly quarreling. Fang Yun paused for a moment, and then sent a paragraph to the world.

[World] Qiancheng: "Okay, I have already informed you all about the rules and rewards of this national hide-and-seek. Next, I will announce the couplets of this hide-and-seek and some clues about the hidden mission!"

"Stop arguing, stop arguing, the important thing is to take notes!"

"At first I was interested in couplets, but now I'm more interested in hidden missions."

"Since it is a hidden mission, the difficulty will definitely be very high. This panda is not easy to get..."

"It sounds like Sihong baby is easy to hold."

As Qiancheng spoke again in the world, the attention of the noisy Bianliang City players was immediately attracted. They stopped arguing and guessed what this so-called hidden mission would look like.

Under the anticipation of countless players, after a while, Qiancheng spoke in the world: "First of all, announce the couplet of this hide-and-seek for the whole people! The first couplet is: "Welcome to the New Year, Jiangshan Jinxiu", and the second couplet is: "Farewell to the old year Things are brilliant!" "

"it is good!"

"Don't say it, brother Cheng is really good for the joint election."

"I don't dare to say anything else, but if Brother Zhaocheng continues to do this, our Bianliang City may really usher in a 'Brilliant Things' this year..."

"Welcome to the new year, the country is beautiful, and the old year is farewell to the prosperity... It really is fourteen words."

"The couplets are really good, but why do I always feel that something is missing?"

With the official announcement of the Hide-and-Seek for All, some players have already set off to find NPCs immediately, but most players are not in a hurry. Clues to hidden quests.

And Fang Yun didn't keep everyone waiting. After announcing the couplet, he immediately said: "As for the hidden mission, it's actually very simple. It's the horizontal batch of this couplet!"

"???"

"Sure enough! I'll just say something is missing!"

"What the hell? Why am I a bit confused?"

"Stupid! Brother Cheng obviously means to ask us to find the horizontal batch of this couplet by ourselves? Whoever can find the panda belongs to him!"

"No...it's okay to find Hengpi, but you have to give me some hints, right?"

"Is there a possibility, brother Cheng has already given a hint?"

"Finally! At first, I thought that this event finally didn't need to use my brain anymore, but now it seems that I have to consume a lot of brain cells!"

Knowing that this novel and mysterious hidden mission turned out to be a horizontal comment on the couplet just now, many players were stunned on the spot, and didn't quite understand what he meant for a while.

On the contrary, there are some quick-witted people who have vaguely guessed Qiancheng's thoughts, but before they could verify it, Qiancheng added it again in the world.

[World] Qiancheng: "As everyone guessed, the hidden task of this hide-and-seek is to find the horizontal scroll of the couplet just now. There is no hint for this horizontal scroll. You need to understand and find it yourself from the upper and lower couplets just now. No .1 Players who have found it can contact me through YY, once confirmed, the super giant panda will be yours!"

"……really!"

"My god! There is no reminder, brother Cheng, are you serious?"

"Search for comprehension through Shangxialian... Brother Cheng, I think you are embarrassing us illiterates."

"I think it's quite exciting. Since it's a hidden mission, of course there must be something different. Let's not talk nonsense, buddy, go find Hengpi now!"

"I'll go too! The horizontal batch is only four words, at worst, it will be hard and concave!"

After confirming that the hidden mission of hide-and-seek is officially looking for unknown Hengpi, the world channel of Bianliang City is instantly devastated.

Many players thought that the biggest difficulty in today's hide-and-seek lies in the [-] moving NPCs. However, after the details of the hidden mission were announced, they discovered that the difficulty of connecting up and down is not even as difficult as the hidden mission!

The only thing that makes them feel better is that compared to the full fourteen NPC's Shangxialian, the banner can only have four characters at most according to the specification, which means that as long as they can guess the specific content of the banner, it is actually easier to find it than Shangxia. The connection is much faster.

Looking at the wailing World Channel, Fang Yun smiled, and finally typed: "Okay, all the content and winning conditions of this national hide-and-seek have been announced. Next, I wish everyone good luck!"

After all, Fang Yun stopped paying attention to the world, but immediately switched to YY, exchanged a few words with the beast masters who were in charge of this hide-and-seek activity, and then controlled the respective NPC trumpets to run towards the hidden corners of the fantasy maps go.

At the same time, when the players who were wailing on the World Channel saw Qian Cheng's words, they also realized that the deal was done, so they didn't care about the nonsense, and quickly threw themselves into the task of finding the NPC.

Since the event has just started, the players in Bianliang City at this time can be said to be the most exciting time, and almost all the maps that can be reached in the entire Fantasy Westward Journey have players looking for them.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what is lively, this is lively!"

At this time, Beast Lord was hanging on his YY private channel with Su Jiu Fang Yun and others, watching the players all over the world yelling and scurrying frantically looking for NPCs, he couldn't help but smack his lips and sigh.

After the three-day event, his biggest feeling is that he is tired, very tired.

But at the same time he was tired, his whole body was as if he had been beaten with chicken blood. For three consecutive days, he was more excited than Fang Yun, the chief planner. It's like two different people.

And the biggest reason why there is such a big gap between his performance before and after is that the activities held by Fang Yun in the past few days are too novel and interesting. When he can't participate, he can only participate indirectly by acting as a behind-the-scenes person. in.

In fact, not only him, but also Sujiu, Huanghe and others had similar thoughts.

Huang He even made a suggestion yesterday, saying that if Fang Yun plans to hold the Spring Festival Gala next year, can he not tell them in advance, it is best to treat them as passers-by, so that they can also participate in these exciting and lively events activities.

Of course, Fang Yun categorically rejected Huang He's proposal. This kind of large-scale event involving an entire server could not be handled by him alone, and he couldn't trust outsiders. The only way was to use his own people.

So no matter how greedy the Beast Lord and the others are for these activities, Fang Yun will never agree to their request. At most, he will agree to give everyone a share of their hard work after the Spring Festival Gala is completely over.

But when Fang Yun and the others were chatting and manipulating the event NPC and waiting for the players to check in, they saw a message suddenly appear on the World Channel.

[World] Merry Nine: "Damn it, I just happened to find an NPC, but that guy ran away when he saw me. In the end, he just couldn't catch up. What a pity!"

[世界] Liu Li: "Really or fake #火眼? I haven't met one until now, where did you meet?"

[World] Drunken Dream Jiangshan: "[Merry Nine] Are you sick? How many times have I told you that I'm not an NPC, can you stop pestering me? #火狂"

[World] Gravity: "Fuck, bro, your ID...couldn't it be an NPC pretending to be a real person?"

[World] Drunken Dream Jiangshan: "I pretend to be you @#%@#..."

Looking at the chaos caused by a player named 'Drunken Dream Jiangshan' on the World Channel, Fang Yun and the others who were fishing and waiting for others were almost dumbfounded.

Does this work too?
I have to say that this player ID named Drunken Dream Jiangshan is really suitable for the occasion. Whoever made Fang Yun's upper line is "Welcome to the New Year Jiangshan Splendid", he directly took up the two characters of Jiangshan, and he couldn't help others not to go Lenovo.

But after regaining his senses, Fang Yun was a little bit dumbfounded.

By the way, didn't these guys listen to his rule description carefully? Each active NPC will only contain one word in the couplet. Although this Drunken Dream Jiangshan ID is suitable for the occasion, it is obviously impossible to be an NPC.

The farce in the world is still going on, but Fang Yun has no time to eat melons.

In front of his NPC trumpet, Xuan Cai'e, who was holding a sea and wearing a black fruit dye, appeared at this time.

Xuan Cai'e's ID was 'meow a meow', which made Fang Yun uncertain whether the other party was a girl or a big guy.

But obviously this is not the point, the point is that his NPC trumpet is in the deepest part of the shipwreck, in the room of the merchant ghost called Mengxin Nightmare!
Bianliang City is an old district that has been in service for several years, and the flow of people on the shipwreck can be known without thinking, and it must not be much.

Although occasionally there will be a large player who comes to bring a small player, but overall, the current Bianliang City Shipwreck is an unpopular map, and most players will basically never think of this place unless they encounter special circumstances.

Before meowing a microphone and entering the room, Fang Yun had already met with several trumpets.

But those trumpets didn't notice him without exception. After all, the NPC Fang Yun is a primitive dyer, and the weapon in his hand is only a bronze axe. Anyone who sees it can immediately understand that this is a true Unbuttoned trumpet.

Those trumpets obviously thought so too, so they basically completed the task quickly after entering the house, and then left in a cool manner, completely ignoring this cute little tiger.

Fang Yun was very satisfied with the responses of these trumpets, and even later he was still thinking, if no one finds him, should he stay here forever, or change to a slightly more obvious place to help those unlucky people make it easier Woolen cloth?
But he never thought, before he had considered what else to do, this Xuan Cai'e, who was called Meow Mi, walked in unexpectedly.

He came to Fang Yun's trumpet with some hesitation, looked at the troll king who stood quietly in the same place and had the ID of 'Do more with less' in front of him, meowed and seemed a little uncertain, and he didn't know for a long time. Say nothing.

The other party didn't say a word, so Fang Yun naturally didn't make a sound either. The two of them just stared and stared in silence for half a minute, and then couldn't help typing and asked: "That...excuse me...you Is it one of the NPCs playing hide-and-seek this time?"

"I'm."

Faced with the other party's inquiry, Fang Yun's mouth curled up, and he immediately typed a response, but the language was extremely concise, and he looked like an AI.

But who knows, whether it was because he answered too decisively, he meowed a little as if he didn't believe it, and asked again: "Then...then do you have any evidence to prove your identity?"

Seeing that the other party still wanted him to take evidence, Fang Yun was almost amused, and typed back directly: "Sorry, no."

As soon as he uttered these four words, he meowed and immediately stopped asking.

She realized that her question just now was a bit too much.

After thinking about it, considering that there are still a bunch of NPCs waiting to be found by me, I dare not keep chattering with this NPC after meowing, so I stopped asking more questions, holding the idea of ​​fishing for big fish and small fish together, After punching in and taking a group photo with Fang Yun's NPC trumpet, he left in a hurry.

Looking at the back of the other party leaving, Fang Yun picked up the cup and took a sip of water, but a smile appeared on his face.

This is actually what he wanted.

In his opinion, simple hide-and-seek activities are too simple. With the player base in Bianliang City, if he continues to follow last year's rules, he may have a bunch of trumpets turned upside down in less than half an hour.

And if you don't want to end the game so quickly, Fang Yun needs to rack his brains to set up various obstacles for the players.

After thinking hard for a long time, Fang Yun finally thought of a somewhat damaging method, which is to use the rules to create a "suspect chain" involving players in the whole server, so that they will collectively fall into an environment of mutual doubt, thus greatly delaying them to find out. Time the correct NPC! (end of this chapter)
