This traveler only wants to choose the lowest difficulty

Chapter 5 The Case Has Been Solved

With the occupation of the capital by the coalition divisions, Wang Wu did not dare to take in the people of the regiment with such fanfare. The gates of the Shunyuan Escort Bureau were closed every day, and Wang Wu went to wander around the city every day, and got drunk when he came back.

Wang Dong knew that Wang Wu had a violent temper. The reason why he behaved like this was because he felt depressed when he saw the Chinese people suffering such humiliation, but he was helpless, so he used alcohol to relieve his sorrow.

If this continues, as the mission time approaches, Wang Wu's death will be imminent.

These days, Wang Dong has long regarded Wang Wu as his elder brother, and he is very reluctant to part with Wang Wu's death.

He also thought that persuading Wang Wu to escape from the capital would save him, but the moment he had this thought, the system popped up the options, and Wang Dong felt helpless when he saw those options.

As long as he tried to persuade Wang Wu, even if he revealed his ending, he would immediately trigger a first-level mission.

After observing for a period of time, Wang Dong knew that the space-time travel that the system sent him to was probably a parallel universe, and the changes his actions made to history would not have any impact on the real world he returned to.

But although he can change some things in this time and space, it is difficult for him to change the event nodes that will affect the main task.

For example, the main task in this time and space is the death of Wang Wu, so no matter what Wang Dong does, it may change other historical events, but absolutely cannot change the ending and method of Wang Wu's death.

Wang Dong believed that if he forcibly persuaded Wang Wu, he would immediately trigger a level-[-] difficulty task, and even if he was lucky enough to complete a level-[-] task and survived, the system would throw him another level-[-] task until Wang Wu was sent to the original level. Kill him like history, or until he is obliterated.Faced with such a result, Wang Dong had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​changing Wang Wu's fate.

Next, the people in the Escort began to busy transfer the people out of the city. On October 10th, Wang Wu was finally accused of hiding the Boxers. Facing the door-to-door search and arrest of the Imperial Guards, in order not to hurt the people in the Escort, Wang Wu decided to go out by himself. Surrender.

Seeing him getting up and about to walk out of the house, Wang Dong thought for a long time, and couldn't help walking forward. Seeing that the system did not flash the option, Wang Dong dared to whisper to Wang Wu: "Fifth Brother, you trust me, one day we will will drive these great powers out of China."

Wang Wu's eyes froze, he turned to look at Wang Dong, and asked, "Is there a day?"

"Yes." Wang Dong said firmly.

Wang Wu looked at him for a long time, then suddenly seemed to understand something and laughed:

"I see, that's good, that's good..."

He laughed and walked out the door, allowing the officers and soldiers of the Guards Battalion to cut his hands behind his back, and he continued to laugh when he was escorted away.

On October 10th, Wang Zibin was shot by the German army along the Donghe River, and his head was hung at Zhengyang Gate to intimidate the forces who dared to harbor the Boxers.

The people in the bodyguard bought back Wang Wu's body. In order to prevent trouble, several of his apprentices buried Wang Wu secretly. Wang Dong didn't know where he was buried.

When Wang Dong was worried that he would not be able to complete the task, a few mysterious guests came to the Shunyuan Escort Bureau. They were all grown up, obviously they were all Lianjiazi.

Although no one introduced him, Wang Dong heard that one of them had an obvious Tianjin accent, and Wang Wu's apprentices called him Mr. Huo. Wang Dong only felt that there were a few clues connected.After going back and thinking about it for a long time, Wang Dong finally thought of a person—Jinmen hero Huo Yuanjia.

Immediately afterwards, Wang Dong immediately recalled some stories about Wang Wu that he had read. He hurriedly bid farewell to the Shunyuan Escort Bureau and ran to the Zhengyang Gate. Difficulty, squatting under the Zhengyang Gate.

Finally, in the middle of the night ten days later, Wang Dong saw Huo Yuanjia and several people wearing night clothes coming to the gate of the city. They knocked down the watchman, flew up to the gate amidst the gunfire of the city guards, and captured Wang Wu. the first level.

Wang Dong hastened to use his lightness kung fu to keep up with them, and he saw them bring Wang Wu's head to the Shunyuan Escort Bureau. Soon, the troopers from the Escort Bureau and the man in black went out together again, and Wang Dong followed them to the Shunyuan Security Bureau. In front of an unnamed deserted tomb somewhere along the river, they dug up the tomb, opened a coffin, and there was a headless corpse in the coffin.

A craftsman carefully took out a needle and thread and sewed Wang Wu's head and body together.

It turns out that Wang Wu's body was buried along the East River.

In the last time, Wang Dong found time to go to Panjiayuan a few times. At this time, the capital was in chaos. Many people sold their properties and fled the capital. Panjiayuan gathered many treasures that the rich could not take away, and even the Allied Forces of Eight Nations ransacked the Forbidden City and the Summer Palace. It is a national treasure that flows out, but Wang Dong can only choose some small things that can be put into the ring.

Watching the countdown to the end of the crossing, Wang Dong broke into the backyard of the Escort Bureau with a large bag of stolen national treasures, delivered the items to the Wang family, and then climbed over the high wall with the family's surprised expressions , Go straight to Dongheyan.

After toasting Brother Wu with a glass of wine, Wang Dong sat in front of Wang Wu's grave, watching the countdown countdown to zero. After a while of dizziness, the world around him stopped. A questionnaire and a pen appeared in front of his eyes.

"The body of the Great Swordsman Wu was finally buried in—"

Wang Dong picked up a pen and wrote down the answer "On the beach along the east river of the capital", accompanied by the prompt sound of "The main task is completed, physical strength +1, and the overall rating of this crossing task is F+...".

In this way, Wang Dong ended his first crossing mission.

……

Wang Dong shook his head and put away his memories.

Seeing that the sun was setting, it seemed that he could not wait for the task today, so Wang Dong decided to put away his hoe and go to Yinling Town to see if he could trigger some random options and prostitute some attribute points for nothing. After all, strengthening himself is the best way to complete the task. Good guarantee.

Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly heard a voice behind him.

It was the sound of horseshoes, and Wang Dong was very familiar with this sound after staying for three months in the time and space where Chu and Han were fighting for hegemony.Moving his ears, the superb hearing brought about by persistently adding points made Wang Dong hear a lot of information in an instant.

There are quite a few horses, at least fifty. This is still the front army. Counting the broken-tail troops behind, there are probably a hundred horses, and the voice is so loud, it seems that they are still wearing armor.

Ok?
Wang Dong was taken aback, how could the number of one hundred knights crossing the Huai River in armor be so familiar?
He raised his head, and sure enough, he saw a group of knights from the Chu Army galloping towards them in the smoke and dust. A tall knight was in front of him, riding a black horse on his hips.

Xiang Yu!Wu Zui!
Xiang Yu, who broke out of Gaixia, finally arrived!

The main mission this time is called "The Overlord's Right Hand", which requires Wang Dong to investigate who took the right hand of Xiang Yu's body after Wujiang committed suicide.Now has reached the countdown stage. As an old system dog who has done four missions, Wang Dong knows that he must keep an eye on Xiang Yu now, lest he fails to see his ending and the mission fails. At the same time, he cannot keep an eye on Xiang Yu too closely. For this kind of main character, you can casually give him several tasks with the lowest difficulty level options. If you follow him too closely, you will easily kill yourself.

So Wang Dong's first reaction was to run, and follow at a distance.Just as he was about to pretend to be a dying farmer and throw away his hoe to escape, the system suddenly displayed a prompt:
[Option [-]: Join Xiang Yu's army - option reward: Fan Zeng's Art of War Book Volume [-] (Level [-])]

[Option [-]: Leave immediately—option reward: Intermediate Chinese Medicine Skill Book (Level [-])]

[Option 1: Stay in place—Option reward: Basic attribute points +[-]]

Can't run?Wang Dong was puzzled. The lowest option in the system is greedy for life and fear of death. It is rare to have such a rigid choice.

But out of his firm belief that any prize option given by the system was intended to kill him, Wang Dong finally chose to stay where he was.

Xiang Yu broke through the siege overnight and led his cavalry across the Huai River. Behind him were Guan Ying's [-] cavalry in pursuit.

Xiang Yu used his extraordinary leadership skills to play Guanying around, and then he escaped from danger and came to Yinling. But at this time, he was exhausted and the road was unfamiliar. The army ran away one after another, even those who were farming would drop their hoes and run away.

When Xiang Yu was distressed, he suddenly saw a farmer standing on the roadside in front of him. The man was holding a hoe and looking towards him. He didn't look very smart. He seemed to be... scared out of his wits?

"Bring him here!" Xiang Yu pointed his whip, and the two riders ran forward quickly, dragging Wang Dong to Xiang Yu.

"Here, Father Tian, ​​let me ask you, which of the two roads ahead is safe?"

Wang Dong took a peek at Xiang Yu, and thought, tsk tsk in his heart, a typical tank player, with beards sticking out one by one, the flesh of his whole body almost tore through the leather armor, and not the very beautiful muscles of a bodybuilder, super tall Large muscle mass means super high energy consumption, and it is prone to hypoglycemia or even shock in an environment where food shortages may be lacking at any time or a protracted battle is required.

The Xiang Yu in front of me is a body with a high fat ratio, with a thick back and a general belly, and a beard all over his face. It is almost unthinkable that the person in front of him is only 31 years old

Just looking at it, Wang Dong couldn't stand the coercive air, as if a roaring steamroller was talking to him.

Wang Dong was glad that he had made preparations and had already put a layer of dirt on his face. With his current disguise skills, although he could not transform into another person, at least he could no longer tell his age and would not cause Xiang Yu to suffer. doubt.

The moment Wang Dong heard Xiang Yu's question, the system flashed an option:

[Option [-]: Refuse to answer—Option Reward: Zhang Liang’s Strategy Book Volume [-] (Level [-])]

[Option [-]: Let Xiang Yu go to the right—Option Reward: Intermediate Archery Skill Book (Level [-])]

[Option 1: Let Xiang Yu go to the left - option reward: memory +[-]]

"When King Xiang went to the Yin Ling, lost his way, he asked Yi Tian's father, and Tian's father said 'Left'."

"On the left, it is trapped in the Daze. It is chased by the old Han Dynasty."

When reading the materials, Wang Dong couldn't help complaining about Tian's father in this record.

If it weren't for this father of Tian who led Xiang Yu into the swamp and was chased by the Han army, Xiang Yu would probably have escaped with [-] riders, and he would not have died by the Wujiang River. ?
The moment he saw the system options, Wang Dong only had three words in his mind: The case has been solved.

Good guy, Father Tian is actually me.

Of course, the system does not create history. Wang Dong knew that Father Tian who answered Xiang Yu's question in history might have other ideas, but now that Xiang Yu has caught him, the Father Tian who originally answered Xiang Yu's question might have taken the opportunity to run away.

The most rewarding option is to refuse to answer. Wang Dong knows that if he refuses, he will definitely be killed by Xiang Yu on the spot. Answering to the right will directly change history and trigger a series of changes. For increasingly difficult tasks, it is safest to answer only to the left.

Xiang Yu saw Wang Dong blankly thinking for a long time, thinking that he was frightened and was about to have his subordinates torture him, when Wang Dong suddenly raised his head and said in standard Yinling dialect:
"left."

Xiang Yu asked, "To the left?"

Wang Dong nodded: "Left."

Seeing his resolute appearance, Xiang Yu believed it.Such an honest Father Tian will probably never lie to others in his life.

Tens of seconds later, Wang Dong fell on the side of the road, holding a piece of silver thrown to him by a knight in his hand, watching Xiang Yu's army go to the left.

Xiang Yu ran so fast.

Wang Dong's heart was sweating so hard.
