Between life and death [unlimited]

Si Yufeng, just like his appearance, is a gentleman with a gentle face.His personality is also like a central air conditioner. He is always a warm and spring-like existence at ordinary times, and he can always take care of other people's feelings subtly. No matter what personality people are with him, they will feel very comfortable when they get along with him.

Almost everyone who met Si Yufeng would praise him: This man has a good personality and quality.

Indeed, he is good everywhere, but his life is not very good.

From childhood to adulthood, as long as he is there, bad things will happen.This special physique is almost comparable to Mr. Mori Kogoro, the "God of Plague" in the island country.

He had just met Jiang Lai, and his unlucky physique of "wherever there is me, there will be trouble" began to flourish again.

The moment Si Yufeng fell, Jiang Xun, who was far away from him, was also affected and fell with him.

The two fell several hundred meters down, getting closer and closer to the bottom of the abyss, and they could almost see the situation below clearly.Didn't expect the bottom of the abyss to look like a river beach?

When Si Yufeng wondered whether he would be smashed into a meat sauce or a meatloaf on the gravel-covered river beach, the familiar electronic synthesis sound sounded in his mind from time to time.

[Congratulations to the player who triggered the special mission: Son of the River]

[Mission background: In the Polatello area, there is a legend... Every night, the sons of the river will climb up from the river, waiting for those who are alone in the mountains and forests. The sound attracts humans, and the unfortunate humans passing by are their favorite food...]

[Task content: Help the troubled people in the Polatello area solve the cannibalism of the sons of the river. 】

[Mission duration: three days. 】

[I wish the players have fun in the game and have a good time! 】

What is different from before is that a new prompt sounded after this familiar mission statement.

【Ding!Since this task is a special task, only gold coins will be deducted for failure and will not result in death. Players can choose to complete this task in a team or alone. 】

[Player Si Yufeng's choice is:]

There are two options [team] or [single]

Si Yufeng glanced at Jiang Xun who fell at the same time as him, not far from him.

Jiang Lai should have also received the mission prompt.Si Yufeng carefully looked at his handsome and stern profile, and noticed that his eyes were still a little blurred.

Jiang Xun might not have finished listening to the content of this special mission.

Si Yufeng thought about it, and chose the option of [Team formation].

At this moment, Jiang Lai's eyes also focused.He should have just listened to the entire mission statement, and he hasn't made the option of forming a team or being alone, so Si Yufeng shouted at him enthusiastically from the air: "Jiang Li, form a team with me!"

The tone was natural, as if it was a matter of course for two people to form a team.

Jiang Lai didn't turn his gaze to him, but his voice was not loud enough for Si Yufeng next to him to hear clearly, "No need."

At the same time, a cold electronically synthesized voice reminded Si Yufeng immediately.

[Player team failed!Players are invited to complete special tasks alone! 】

Si Yufeng's smile immediately froze on his face.But he tried his best to control his mood. Even after being rejected, he did not forget his demeanor. He still smiled and wished Jiang Xun, "Then wish us all a smooth completion of the task!"

Jiang Xun didn't think it had anything to do with his rejection of Si Yufeng's team formation.Although they have completed tasks together before and exchanged names, the relationship between them is still strangers.Jiang Lai doesn't like to spend too much time with other people. He is more used to completing tasks alone, just like before entering the living space.

He has always been used to walking alone, if other people are suddenly added to the action, it will make him feel in the way and uncomfortable everywhere.

After the selection, Jiang Lai's consciousness became blurred again, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already standing on a river beach.

Recalling that he fell off only wrapped in a bath towel, Jiang Xun quickly checked his clothes.

Fortunately, I was fully dressed, and the game system was not so perverted that it didn't even provide players with clothes.

The time in the game was around noon at this time, and the place where Jiang Shuang appeared was on a gravel river beach next to a road.The sand and gravel here are a little yellowish brown in color, reflecting the direct sunlight at noon, Jiang Lai felt dizzy for a moment.

"Oh my God! What are you doing standing there?"

An exclamation came from the road next to it.It was a passing middle-aged aunt who saw Jiang Li standing still. She hurried to the edge of the gravel beach, but she didn't dare to get too close to Jiang Lai.

There was anxiety in her tone, "Come here quickly! My child, standing there is not a good thing."

Jiang Lai remembered the name of this mission: Son of the River.Looking back at the rushing water behind her, and noticing the anxious look of the middle-aged aunt, she turned and walked towards the aunt.

The middle-aged aunt has a traditional Western appearance, with thick eyebrows, big eyes and a high nose bridge. There are some wrinkles and sun spots on her face. Her skin has begun to sag. Her golden hair is wrapped in a scarf. Based on the clothes on her body, Jiang Shui deduces that this place is Country M in the last century.

"Hello," he was taken aback as soon as he opened his mouth. He spoke in pure English when he spoke Chinese.He paused for a while, but quickly adapted to this magical phenomenon within a few seconds, "Excuse me, is this the Polatello area?"

The middle-aged aunt nodded: "Yes, this is the Polatello area. My child, where did you come from?"

Jiang Xun was at a loss for words for a while, so he couldn't say that he came from country C, which is thousands of miles away... But the middle-aged aunt seemed to see something from his face, and continued to ask without waiting for Jiang Xun to reply. : "Looking at your curly red hair, you can't be Old George's distant nephew who came from another place, right?"

what old georgeIn Jiang Lai's impression, he didn't know Old George at all.Wait... red curly hair?When did he perm and dye his hair?

Jiang Lai didn't care about the strange gaze of the middle-aged aunt, he pulled a strand of hair from his head, held it in front of his eyes, and it was indeed red like a flame.

Fortunately, he is Jiang Xun, and he doesn't care too much about his appearance, so after he made it clear that his situation should be similar to soul possession, he just let it take its course.

"Can you find my uncle?" Although his appearance has changed, he is still the taciturn Jiang Shang inside.He wasn't in the mood to talk, and asked straightforward questions about this uncle of the body.

Since the system has arranged such an identity for him, there should be a special purpose.Jiang Lai's current thinking is that he should be able to get some special clues from his "uncle".

The middle-aged aunt didn't expect Jiang Xun to be so rude, and asked him where his uncle was without any greetings.

But she saw Jiang Lai exuding an aura of not getting close to strangers. Although the middle-aged aunt was a little murmured in her heart, she still pointed the way honestly, "Go down this road, there is a place on the edge of the town. The fourth house I just entered has a very large garden and a villa with a red roof."

"Thank you."

Without too many words, Jiang Lai just thanked the middle-aged aunt briefly, and then hurried over in the direction the middle-aged aunt pointed just now.

Therefore, he also missed the pointing from the middle-aged aunt behind his back, "It's really rude... How could old Chris choose such a child as his successor..."

Jiang Lai, who was talked about behind his back, didn't have the slightest sense of being someone else's nephew who came from afar to look for relatives.Compared with how to maintain the image of the characters in the game, he cares more about how he can complete the task faster.

Following the guidance, Jiang Lai quickly found the red-roofed villa with a garden that the middle-aged aunt had just mentioned.I saw that the flowers in the fence on the side of the road were blooming very well, and it could be seen that this house was usually taken care of by someone.

Jiang Lai walked in along the cobblestone path. He stood on the steps and knocked on the closed door. Soon there was a "squeak" from the inside of the house, and the white wooden door was opened. narrow gaps.

From the gap in the door, one can see a blue pupil and a bloodshot eyeball, but there seems to be a layer of white mist in front of the eyeball.The owner of the eyes seemed to be suffering from cataracts, he couldn't see Jiang Lai's appearance clearly, so he asked, "Who is it?"

An old man's voice came from inside.

This is probably the old George in the mouth of the middle-aged aunt.Jiang Lai replied, "Uncle, it's me."

Because he didn't know the name of the body he possessed, he didn't dare to say more for the sake of caution.

Old George heard Jiang Lai's voice, and after groping in the dark for a while, he opened the locked door chain, "My dear nephew, little George, you are finally here!"

As soon as he opened the door, old George gave Jiang Xun a warm hug.

Jiang Xun was dumbfounded.What's going on, how could the name of this body be Little George?Isn't it only between father and son that names are distinguished in this way?

Old George suffered from severe cataracts, and he couldn't see the questioning expression on Jiang Shang's face. He just groped for the wall with his hands, and led Jiang Xiang into the house tremblingly.

Jiang Lai looked at the scene in the house in front of him.Old George seemed to be living alone. There was not much furniture in the house. There were only two dining chairs beside the dining table, and it was obvious that one was half-old and the other was brand new.It seems that it should be a new chair specially prepared for his nephew who came from afar.

"My dear nephew, do you still remember me?" Old George led Jiang Shui to sit on the sofa in the living room, with a kind smile on his old face, he asked caringly, "The last time we met was 20 years ago. It's been a long time ago, when you were just born, you were only that small."

As he said that, Old George stroked the length of the baby with his fingers. He seemed to recall the happy times in the past, and his whole body fell into warm memories, "After so many years have passed, you should also become a strong boy .”

Jiang Lai had been patiently listening to the old man rambling on about the old stories. Although there was no disturbance in his heart, he never interrupted the old man's memories.

Old George suddenly realized that his nephew hadn't spoken for a long time. He smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I said too much. It's just that I haven't seen my relatives for a long time, so I lost my composure. By the way, my nephew, I I forgot to ask you if you are hungry, after driving so far, you must be starving, right?"

"It's okay, by the way, uncle." Jiang Lai thought for a while and asked in a calm tone, "You asked me to come over, don't you have anything else you want to tell me?"

Such a straightforward question is still in line with Jiang Xun's style of going straight to the theme.

Old George had just planned to get up to make some food for his nephew, but when he heard Jiang Lai's question, his body froze, but it was only for a while, and he continued to slowly grope in the direction of the kitchen, "Your Mother should have received the letter, didn't she tell you? You must be hungry after walking so far, I will tell you after we finish our meal first. "

The old man was busy in the kitchen for a while, and simply warmed up some semi-finished food for Jiang Lie, and after serving the dishes on the table, he called Jiang Lie to eat, "Dinner is ready, come here to have a meal with your uncle , let's talk about other things after dinner."

Jiang Lai was sitting on a brand-new chair. He glanced at the carefully prepared delicacies on the table, but he didn't dare to touch the knife and fork easily. That salad that George just ate.

Picking up the fork and sniffing it at the end of his nose, he didn't smell the common drug or other poisons, so Jiang Shuang dared to eat it with confidence.

Although Old George's eyes are not very good, his ears are extremely sensitive. He caught Jiang Shui's voice of not eating for a long time, and asked him with a smile: "My nephew, are you afraid that your uncle will kill you?" You?"
