It's almost like I'm a fairy

Chapter 31 The Earl's Wedding

The doors and windows of the clinic were all closed, making it look dark and cramped.

Qi Tianhe opened the window to let in the wind and watered the plants and flowers, before lying down on the sofa to rest.

The parrot brought the blanket over to cover him.

"It's time to go home and take a look." Qi Tianhe put one hand on his forehead, and suddenly opened his eyes to look at the ceiling.

I didn't know what to think of, so I sat up suddenly and asked: "When using team-building props, do you occupy the quota of people?"

"..."

The parrot resisted the urge to flap its wings, and slowly uttered a sentence that was overthinking.

Qi Tianhe came to a sudden: "So you are only half a person in the dungeon?"

No matter how good a psychologist is, it is difficult to see emotions from the faces of different species.But after he finished speaking, he analyzed a lot of things from the other party's behavior, for example, the tip of the wings that had been raised slightly. Qi Tianhe immediately changed the subject: "Even the game can't fully see your real body. It seems that you are better than me." It’s even better than I imagined.”

The tips of the raised wings changed to stiff vertical, and the parrot turned its head to one side: "That's it."

After coaxing the little ancestor, Qi Tianhe lay down again and closed his eyes. This time he slept for three hours. When he woke up, it was completely dark outside.

There was an unread text message on the phone, from Liu Tianming, asking when he would like to download the copy, saying that if he didn't want to wait too long, he could do it as soon as possible.Only then did Qi Tianhe know that Liu Tianming hadn't received the game mission for half a month, and he would receive instructions to download the dungeon in a week or so at most.

After looking at the recent customer appointments, Qi Tianhe replied, 'This Saturday. '

Because of the need to form a team to download the dungeon, plus the daily work schedule, the previous plan to go home had to be postponed.During the period, Lu Nanlai had a psychological diagnosis and treatment, and after the end, he talked about the topic of Yongye: "I heard that there was no particularly serious conflict between you and the witch general."

Qi Tianhe locked the diagnosis and treatment records, wondering: "There is no personal grudge between us, the most is a verbal dispute."

Why does his tone sound as if a war of shaking the world and crying ghosts and gods is about to break out?

Lu Nan didn't say a word. What he admired most about this man all along was his ability to tell nonsense without changing his face.

The time for diagnosis and treatment has passed, Qi Tianhe seldom does free private chats, so he sent Lu Nan away on the grounds that he still had something to do, and called Qin Yang on the way home to talk about opening a dating agency.

"If you are free, please help me check what procedures are needed."

It means that he is not free... Qin Yang was puzzled: "Didn't you just release the dungeon?"

It stands to reason that the time should be more than enough.

Qi Tianhe: "We will do it again on Saturday."

"Game arrangement?"

"No," Qi Tianhe said calmly, "Make an appointment with someone else to form a team."

Qin Yang on the other end of the phone was preparing a party with his friends, and suddenly felt a little inexplicably anxious. Even the returnees have worked so hard, why should he waste time playing freely?

How did Qi Tianhe know that a phone call would ignite other people's fighting spirit, and now he is busy contacting clients again to see if he can advance the appointment time for diagnosis and treatment.

After that, he didn't rest for almost a day, and his work schedule was full. Finally, on Saturday, he drove off early in the morning.

The location sent by Liu Tianming was not easy to find. After walking a few wrong roads, he finally saw a unique building in the distance.

Someone came out to help him open the door, and after entering, he had to drive another distance.I have seen a lot of Qi Tianhe in the courtyard, but it is rare to build such a magnificent one. After all, Tianhai City is a place where every inch of land is expensive.

An open space was specially opened up in the yard to build an artificial lake, and Liu Tianming was sitting on the shore fishing.

Qi Tianhe came at an unlucky time, just in time to scare away one of Liu Tianming's fish.

Seeing that the fishing rod that was shaking a moment ago became stable again, Liu Tianming sighed slightly regretfully: "Remember to owe me a fish."

Qi Tianhe didn't come here to be touched, he carried a fruit basket as a door-to-door gift, and after saying a few polite words, he directly opened his mouth to form a team.

The fishing rod was stretched out in front of him, and the sharp hook was still dripping with water.

A bit of astonishment appeared in Qi Tianhe's eyes, and he asked, "Is this the one?"

Liu Tianming saw the change in his expression, and made sure that the other party had never used team-building props, so he began to do the most basic science: "Common team-building props can often be found in dungeons, so there are all kinds of forms."

Qi Tianhe looked around the fishing rod, and humbly asked, "How do you use this thing?"

"Fishing, both parties in the team use it to catch five fish each."

"..."

Ten minutes later, the driver who had been driving Liu Tianming appeared with a bucket full of jumping fish.

Liu Tianming caught enough fish without any effort, and then handed over the fishing rod to Qi Tianhe.

"..." It was like a joke.

Qi Tianhe imitated him fishing with a strange expression. When the fifth fish was hooked, he suddenly received a game prompt:

[The team was successfully formed.

Members: Qi Tianhe; Liu Tianming.

If there is no specified copy, the system will automatically match the copy after ten seconds. ]

Qi Tianhe guessed that the designated dungeon should be like the key given to him by the shaman before, a medium that can directly lead to a certain dungeon.

The game is more punctual than anyone else, and the node that gets stuck for ten seconds allocates a new copy:

[Earl's wedding: difficulty level S.

Background introduction: There lived a mysterious countess in the castle. The long-term loneliness made her yearn for love. At the same time, several warriors who came from far away wanted to marry this rich and beautiful mysterious countess.

Survival Goal: Survive until the countess' engagement banquet ends.

Tips: 1. Your love for Earl must be pious. 2. Those selected by the Earl will receive special gifts.

Entry time: midnight tonight.

Participation method: Stand in front of the mirror and recite Chapter 19 of Proverbs in the Bible. ]

Liu Tianming smiled meaningfully: "There are not many copies of romance these days."

Qi Tianhe nodded: "I hope this earl won't eat the heart of true love."

The dungeon was opened on the same day, so he temporarily stayed at Liu Tianming's place. There are quite a lot of books here, which is perfect for passing the time.

However, no matter how extensive the collection was, there was no "Bible" in the study room, so at midnight, the two of them stood in front of the mirror with their mobile phones, and read the materials they searched from the Internet word by word.

"...whoever bears false witness will not go unpunished, and whoever utters a lie will perish."

When I read this sentence, a layer of mist formed in the mirror, and the figure inside gradually blurred, but not long after, the phantom, which was almost impossible to see clearly, walked out of the mirror and reached out to Qi Tianhe. He took that pale hand.

"Can you accept who you really are?"

The faint question lingered in his ears, like a spell that blinded normal thinking and judgment.

"Whoever utters a lie will perish..."

When reason and consciousness returned, Qi Tianhe found himself sitting on a chair with a long table in front of him. The only few oil lamps could only provide sparse light for the huge castle.

Including Qi Tianhe, there were a total of four people, all men, who were holding a heavy "Bible" and reading a sentence at the same time.

At this moment, the players were already awake, they stopped reading and began to look at each other.

"I see your determination." A voice interrupted their searching gaze.

Everyone looked for their reputation, and the old butler in front of him was looking at them. His lips were thin and dry, and they seemed to split when he spoke.

"I also believe that you all sincerely want to marry the Earl." The muscles on the butler's face were so stiff that no one could feel any kindness: "Warriors who have come from afar, although you are all tall, handsome and full of enthusiasm, it is a pity that there is only one A man can marry a count."

"You are wrong," Qi Tianhe imitated his tone: "The count is the moon in the sky, and it is a luxury for me to bathe in a little moonlight, and I don't mind everyone living together."

"..."

The butler gave him an unfriendly look: "The Earl's brilliance cannot shine on everyone, please don't doubt her steadfast character."

"I was the one who was abrupt." Qi Tianhe softened quickly.

The butler suddenly showed a strange smile. He looked at the players and asked, "Let me take the liberty to ask you one last time, do you really want to marry the Earl?"

Before hearing the answer, he added lifelessly: "Those who lie will pay for it."

The psychological quality of the players is also very strong. Of course they are not sincere, but in order to impress the NPC, they nodded without hesitation.

Seeing this, the butler nodded in satisfaction, and ordered the maids on both sides who had no sense of presence: "Go and get the things."

The moment the maid turned around, the player suddenly had a bad premonition.

Before the things were fetched, the butler didn't say a word, and the silence that could hear a pin drop made the atmosphere tense.About 5 minutes later, the maid reappeared. The thing she was holding was covered with a white cloth. At first glance, it looked like a memorial tablet.

The housekeeper lifted the white cloth himself.

Fortunately, it was not the imaginary tablet, but an ancient bronze mirror with large rubies inlaid around it.

"This is one of the Earl's cherished collections," the butler stroked the edge of the bronze mirror, with a faint obsession in his eyes: "It can illuminate people's hearts."

Hearing this, everyone subconsciously changed their positions to cover their chests.

The butler first looked at the player who said that he would not marry a non-earl: "You come first."

The player hesitated for a moment.

The butler immediately changed his face: "Don't you want to?"

Without further delay, the player gets up and walks to the mirror.The mirror reflected his own blurred reflection, and nothing else appeared, so he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.

The butler stood aside, avoiding being seen in the mirror: "As the earl's partner, you must be sincere and not be mixed with any deceit. Do you think I'm right?"

The player froze for a moment, but didn't say anything dead: "No one can guarantee that they will not make mistakes in their life."

The butler actually nodded in agreement: "So I decided to give you a chance, but before that, please face this mirror and tell me what is the most serious thing you have concealed from the Earl?"

"What are you hiding?" The player was sweating on his forehead: "

The Earl and I never even met. "

The butler interrupted: "There are many things to hide, such as a previous love affair, for example, you came here to plot the earl's property...it has nothing to do with whether you knew each other before."

The player's lips moved, but he didn't utter a word.

When he calmed down and was finally ready to speak, the housekeeper suddenly emphasized again: "Whoever spits out lies will surely perish."

The player closed his eyes and tried to speak in a calm tone: "I have a girlfriend, but I admire the count's beauty..."

After saying a word, something suddenly fell out of his mouth, the player was stunned, and found that it was a tooth with flesh and blood attached.He touched the side of his face belatedly, and there was a sharp pain in his mouth.

Seeing this, the arc of the butler's mouth widened, and every word was like a trial: "You lied... This is not the most serious concealment you think."

The player does already have a girlfriend in reality, and I thought it could be one of the reasons, but I didn't expect the mirror to be so strict.He endured the pain, and changed the topic: "Of course this is not the main reason..."

Half of his face was already swollen, and every time he opened his mouth, there was severe tearing pain: "I came here to get a gift from the Earl."

Although vague, but in the end to finish the sentence.

This speech is completely sincere. The gift that the player may get in the dungeon prompt is what he desires most at present. Which player will not be tempted by the item?

The housekeeper sighed faintly: "Your love comes from greed."

The player's heart tightened.

Butler: "But as I said, anyone who dares to express their sincerity will have a chance. If you can pass the next test, you may not be unable to win the Earl's favor."

Without specifying what the test was, the count gave him three dried rose petals.

The second person who stepped forward was a player who had downloaded more than ten instances of dungeons, and he seemed to have no scruples in speaking: "I might kill the count."

Just one sentence made the butler's complexion even more ugly. He snorted coldly, and only gave out a rose petal.

The previous player got some psychological comfort. From the current point of view, the more roses he got, the better.

Only Liu Tianming and Qi Tianhe were left.

The butler looked at Liu Tianming: "What do you think is the biggest secret you have kept from the Earl?"

Liu Tianming got up and walked to the mirror: "I want to reveal the Earl's secret."

Compared with props, he pays more attention to the exploration of the dungeon, which will directly affect the final settlement of the dungeon.

"You guys who are not sincere!" The butler cursed, but gave a whole rose.

Compared with the answers of the first two people, this is barely acceptable.

When it was Qi Tianhe's turn, he glanced at the butler first: "No matter what I say, I won't be sanctioned?"

Butler: "The earl is kind and generous. She has the best desire for love. No matter what secrets her future partner is hiding, she will be willing to give him another chance."

Qi Tianhe turned his head and stared at the mirror, stared at the blurry figure inside, was silent for a while, and then made up his mind and said slowly: "Actually, I... am not good at it."

After the words fell, the maids on both sides looked up at him at the same time with expressionless faces.

The butler's lips trembled: "No, it means..."

Qi Tianhe turned his face away and coughed lightly: "No."

***

The heavy iron door was closed heavily, and the crow was standing on the dry branch and screaming vigorously. Under the full moon, Qi Tianhe stood alone at the door.

When he finally came to his senses, he ran forward quickly and slapped the gloomy iron door with his hands: "Let me in! Didn't I just agree... The Earl is willing to give everyone a chance!"

Looking at the other players, they are either seeking money or killing their lives, how can they compare to themselves? !

The parrot appeared: "I thought your obsession would be a prop."

Qi Tianhe pressed the center of his eyebrows: "It depends on what you compare it with."

Yu Bi looked at the ancient castle under the moonlight: "You have to find a way to get in."

Getting kicked out means not even getting a chance to complete the task.

The iron gate was more than three meters high, and there were dense spikes standing on it, so it was impossible to climb over it by manpower.Qi Tianhe rolled up his sleeves and took out the prop [small shovel], and began to dig the tunnel.

It is indeed a special prop that can dig through the ghost wall. With a shovel down, even if it touches a hard stone, it can be broken easily.

The voice of the crow on the tree became more and more unpleasant, as if it was laughing at this farce.

The parrot fanned them away from the branches with one wing, and the world became very quiet for a moment, except for the sound of shoveling soil.

After digging for a while, Qi Tianhe stopped to wipe the sweat off his face, shook his head and said, "What's wrong with this world?"

NPC also began to pick people.

It was another shovel, and as the soil was raised in a fan-shaped arc, Qi Tianhe asked: "Is it considered a violation of the rules by the housekeeper?"

"The game only guarantees the safety of the player's life without violating the rules. If he didn't kill you, it doesn't count." After a pause, the parrot looked into the castle, where the butler was watching coldly through the iron window: "It's like He saw you digging a tunnel, so he couldn't kill you."

Qi Tianhe frowned:

"Isn't every NPC able to interfere with the player's progress?"

Parrot: "The problem is that he kicked you out for a reasonable reason."

There is still a possibility of salvation for those who murder for money, like him, it is estimated that there is no salvation.

"..."

Hearing this, Qi Tianhe rested his arms on the shovel and let out a long sigh. For the first time, he had the urge to swear, but he had to admit that he had lost at the starting line in this game from the very beginning.

The author has something to say: Qi Tianhe: What about treating everyone equally?

Countess: I'm sorry, I suddenly discovered that there is still something that love cannot overcome.
