That NPC went crazy again

When Ah Mai finally stabilized his emotions, it was already night.

The little girl stopped her sobbing and crying, opened her tear-filled eyes, and saw a cluster of warm bonfires in front of her at some point.

The orange flames illuminated a piece of snow, vivid and lively in the dark night, and even the sharp ice and snow were melted into rounded outlines, giving people a particularly gentle feeling.

Beiyuan put the fruit picked in this cedar forest on a stick and roasted it over the fire. For some reason, it smelled good.He casually handed over a bunch, "Eat it?"

Ah Mai looked at it for a while, but finally couldn't survive the hungry stomach, so he bit down, "...so hot!"

Bei Yuan: "I just wanted to tell you."

Although it was screaming hot, Ah Mai still bit it with big mouthfuls, as if he wanted to chew it up with the depression of the day.

While eating, Ah Mai glanced around and found that he didn't see Xin Xide's figure, so he couldn't help asking, "Where's that person?"

Bei Yuan fed a bunch of fruits to the curious Yan Wang who was eager to try, stroked the cat's fur, and replied casually: "He went out to do some business."

Under the training of Beiyuan's "Ai", that spider leg finally obeyed them obediently.Xin Xide felt that he had obtained Beiyuan's true biography, and immediately picked it up and went out eagerly, to see if he could use it to catch Mrs. Ghost Spider in one fell swoop.

With a low "oh", Ah Mai became quiet again, staring at the campfire without speaking.

Bei Yuan glanced at her, and suddenly asked, "Is that performance really that important?"

Although I just met him not long ago, at least I broke his house when I came up, so if there is a need, Beiyuan doesn't mind helping him.

But at present, all he knows is that this little girl seems to belong to a dance performance troupe, and she was going to participate in the performance in Sarn King City, but now she has been removed from the performance list.

"It's important, of course it's important." A Mai sniffed. It had been a long time since no one was willing to listen to her, "My hometown is an unnamed small planet on the border of the Sarn star field. The family might not even have a ticket to go out."

"But now, the king of the Sarn tribe heard about our ice dance from somewhere, and asked our planet to perform at the coming-of-age ceremony of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince ten days later. Commoners, nobles, and even the Crown Prince and the king said I might be there in person!"

"My grandfather even used his savings to buy a new terminal. He said he would watch the live broadcast at home, and he would be the first to find me on camera..."

Even if children have limited understanding, they still know that it is a very remarkable performance with an extremely spectacular scene.On that day, the eyes of the whole star field will focus on this place.The pinnacle of life, infinite glory, nothing is better than this.

But Ah Mai looked at the dismissal envelope that was thrown over during the day, and couldn't help but choked.The bonfire crackled and burst.

The group of children during the day belonged to the same performance troupe as Ah Mai, but they were backup members just in case.

The performance troupe was invited to the Emperor Star City, which was something that many people dreamed of for a lifetime.The adults around along the way even told their ears about this, which made the children feel awed and excited, with infinite longing.

Now that Ah Mai is unable to play because of a sudden problem with his leg, their chance has come. Naturally, none of them hope that Ah Mai will be well.It's better to be lame forever!

"When did your leg get hurt?" Bei Yuan had actually noticed the little girl's leg a long time ago, but he didn't mention it because he was worried about the pain of poking her. He only treated her as an ordinary person.

Ah Mai's expression darkened, "Three days ago, I was bitten by a snake on the way back to the dormitory."

"dormitory?"

"It's about 10 minutes to the east of the cabin, where the performance troupe lives. After I was injured, they let me move out to recuperate."

Of course, in fact, this dilapidated wooden house is more like being randomly selected to send someone away than to rest.

Bei Yuan asked again: "Have you not seen a doctor?"

Ah Mai: "I've read it, and it's said to be snake venom. After I gave an injection of antidote, there was no follow-up."

Beiyuan didn't know if the doctor was too perfunctory, or if the snake venom really made the most advanced medical technology in the imperial capital helpless.However, this familiar incident reminded him of Xinxid—you must know that Xinxid's hand that was forced to be reformed was poisoned by Mrs. Ghost Spider.

Later, Xinxide seemed to have specially researched a universal antidote?

As soon as he remembered this, Xinxid came back.

Seeing clearly what the man was carrying, Ah Mai couldn't help but let out a short scream, causing the Flame Beast to lazily lift its eyelids and take a disgusted look from the campfire.

What Xinxid held in his hand was the spider leg of Mrs. Ghost Spider, and now this leg was still thumping, as if trying to escape.

"It's alright, it's alright, your main body is far away from here, don't even think about going back." The man stepped on the snow with his spider's leg and crushed it unceremoniously into the snowdrift, finally calming down the wriggling limbs .

"How is it?" Beiyuan looked at the disheveled Xin Xide, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows, "You found out the target and fought?"

"It's a long story. Is there any water? I'm exhausted!" Xin Xide thanked, took the wooden cup handed over by A Mai without a word, and took a sip before explaining, "I followed this road all the way. After walking for more than half an hour, I arrived at a city. Hey, not to mention that the city is quite prosperous, it is almost comparable to Yunshang Kingdom!"

Beiyuan thought for a while, "It must be the royal city of the Sarn tribe."

"Sarn? Is this place a race? It should be, it looks like the prosperity of a race's main city." Xinxid rubbed his chin, recalling the scene at that time, "I went to the gate of the city and found a spider The position sensed by my legs was still inside, so I wanted to go in, but the defenders stopped me—"

Speaking of this, the man showed an incomprehensible look on his face, "The city guard said, 'the king has issued an order, and things related to the Wanzu are not allowed in the main city these days, and it is considered a violation to dress up as Xinxid. '...I don't quite understand, what do you mean by 'dressing up as Xinxid'? Am I not Xinxied?"

Beiyuan went to see Ah Mai for the first time, but Ah Mai also looked confused, and even said, "It's unreasonable for a big city to control what people wear."So Bei Yuan knew that Ah Mai, who was born on a remote planet, would most likely not be able to afford the cost of the holographic game cabin, so naturally he didn't understand the Wanzu game.

"What happened later?" Bei Yuan selectively ignored the other party's curiosity, mainly because he didn't know how to explain it.

He prefers to say that Wanzu is a world with special existence. Its foundation is not atoms but data. It used to be a unilateral intervention in the world of Wanzu, but now this kind of intervention has gradually evolved into two-way.

Fortunately, Xin Xide knew the priority of the matter, and did not hold on here, "Then the guards demanded that I be fined, and a group of people suddenly appeared and said that I looked like me, and wanted to take pictures with me."

Hearing this, Bei Yuan knew that this man who didn't like restraint would not be able to stand it, he raised his eyes and pointed out without any surprise: "You escaped."

Xin Xide spread his hands, "Escaped. The soldiers guarding the city chased me for a while, and I threw them off halfway."

The scene was quiet for a while, Beiyuan looked at him, and suddenly said, "Do you know what I'm thinking now?"

Xin Xide nodded, "I guess."

The two looked at each other, and said one after the other: "She should be parasitic on someone else."

"She likes young and beautiful girls as her hotbed."

After a pause, they said in unison: "We have to find a way to get her out."

Xin Xide: "Break into the royal city directly?"

Bei Yuan: "Too high-profile is easy to scare the snake."

Xinxid: "Then get in."

Bei Yuan: "Yes."

Dumbfounded by the tacit understanding of the two singing and singing together, Ah Mai silently moved to the side of Yan Beast, who was busy staring at the cowboy and didn't pay attention to anyone.

"What about the specific implementation?" Xin Xide covered his head with a headache, "This kind of place generally needs a pass like Yunshang Kingdom."

"I already have an idea." Bei Yuan looked at A Mai, and in the little girl's confused gaze, turned to Xin Xide and asked, "Do you still have your universal antidote?"

Xin Xide followed Bei Yuan's gaze to A Mai, spun around on the girl's lap, and immediately understood, "How much is needed?"

Bei Yuan: "It's completely cured."

Synsid: "Three."

As he spoke, he hooked it directly from the leather case at his waist, and three test tubes containing reddish reagents fell into his hand.

Xin Xide threw it out with one hand, and Beiyuan caught it firmly.

"Use one a day, one at a time, and it will be fine for three days without interruption. However, it will be very painful." Xinxid made it very clear, "The pain will last for an hour each time, and you must not lose consciousness during the period. Keep your legs moving to fully digest the potion. Let the little girl think about it carefully."

Bei Yuan nodded, then turned to look at A Mai, his golden eyes were calm and composed, with a kind of calming power, "You have heard it all, so what is your decision?"

Ah Mai was looking at the two in disbelief, combining the meanings in their few words, could it be that... did she mean to heal her leg?But is this really possible? !Can she really still dance and run towards her dream? ! !

The icy lake at night is so quiet that there is no sound, and the lake surface is as smooth and clean as a mirror.The surrounding cedars shed their branches and leaves, as if decorating a mirrored floral decoration.

The group of children who fought with Ah Mai during the day could not survive the cold snowy night, and they all disappeared long ago.

However, this is indeed the place where Ah Mai finally chose to use the drug.

Because Xin Xide said to himself that he "doesn't want to see people suffer", he was busy trying to find a way to make the spider legs more obedient, so only Bei Yuan came with him.

"You probably haven't heard of it. My hometown is on the far border of the Sarn star field. It's a very small subsidiary planet." A Mai looked up at the stars in the sky.

"Ice dancing is the oldest custom on our planet. Everyone can dance. Some children have already learned the simple steps of ice dancing before they can even write their own names."

Beiyuan handed her the filled potion, while showing a curious look in a timely manner, "It sounds like there is something else to say about this dance."

A Mai took it without hesitation and swallowed it in one gulp. At the same time, because of Bei Yuan's answer, a little different brilliance finally appeared in his moist eyes, "That's a dance handed down by our ancestors on our planet—it is said that our The ancestors liked to dance very much, and the living conditions were very difficult at that time, and they could only find places by migrating around."

"Until one time, they met a real dragon during their migration! They strayed into the dragon's territory by mistake, and they were about to be wiped out. Suddenly, one of them asked for a dance for the dragon before he died. , that is a dance that no one has ever seen..."

When she said this, she suddenly ran out of words, probably unable to describe the picture, so she quickly and cautiously opened the story book she had been holding in her hand.

The storybook is already tattered, and its damage is entirely due to being read too many times, which has greatly overdrawn its own quality and lifespan, but obviously its owner is still trying his best to save it.Judging from the traces of repeated stitching on the spine of the book, it can be seen how much it is cherished on weekdays.

During the process, Ah Mai's hands began to tremble faintly, and he didn't make a sound amid the first wave of pain that came slowly.

Thus, Bei Yuan saw the page that Ah Mai had turned over——

In the picture, in a world of ice and snow, on an endless icy lake, a graceful dancer is dancing on the frozen lake, his fluttering skirt is like a white bird spreading its wings.At the end of the world, an ice-blue giant dragon lowered its eyes slightly, looking down from the depths of the snowstorm and under the sky.

The dragon's body is transparent, like a sculpture of ice and snow, with the immaculate dream and majesty in the wind and snow.In contrast, the dancer's body is as small as an ink dot, but it has a kind of holiness and piety like a sacrifice, which made everyone who saw this scene silent.

This illustration is fixed at this moment, but it seems that the dancer and the dragon in the picture will come alive in the next moment, which makes people hold their breath.

"Sometimes I often think, what are the dancers in this painting thinking when they are dancing? Looking at the life that is much smaller than themselves, waving their bodies desperately in front of them, what will the dragon think What kind of mood did the dragon feel when he let them go because of this dance...?"

Speaking of this, Ah Mai's breathing was already messed up, fine beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead, and she couldn't stop shivering in the cold wind.

The medicine finally started to take full effect.

Bei Yuan looked at her, "If you really want to know, it's not difficult."

"What... what...?" The pain was too violent, as if there were countless ants desperately drilling into the crevices of her bones, but after a while, her consciousness was blurred.

Ah Mai could only see Bei Yuan's lips slightly opening and closing, but he couldn't distinguish the other party's words at all.In the end, beads of sweat dripped into her eyes one after another, and she could only vaguely see the shining golden eyes.

She was so painful that she couldn't make a sound, but she still firmly remembered that she should keep walking and not stop.

Although according to normal inspirational stories, at this time, it should be the girl who worked hard to the end, and was finally reborn from the ashes.

However, this is still a 13-year-old child who may not be called a girl at all, let alone this is a disaster that many adults cannot endure.After waiting for more than 40 minutes, Bei Yuan realized that the opponent had reached his limit - if there were no other changes or external forces, this kid would fail.

Bei Yuan decided to help her.This is the second plan he came up with when he asked Xin Xide for the medicine, just to prevent this situation from happening now.

The method he wants to use is a bit like "anesthesia". By intervening in the other party's spiritual world, let her temporarily escape the pain of reality, so as to survive this period of time.

Almost every highly intelligent life form in the ten thousand races has not weak spiritual power, even the spider monsters have "mental attack", so as the last dragon with too many levels above the spider monsters, there are naturally some.

He then expanded his spiritual field and guided Ah Mai, who was almost unconscious, to link with him.This was Bei Yuan's first attempt of this kind, but with his spiritual strength, it was not very difficult.

However, there is still a small problem -

After Beiyuan spent a few seconds building the spiritual world, he suddenly discovered that in the spiritual world where only he and A Mai should exist theoretically, a third strange spiritual body appeared.

...Who is this?

Why does it make him feel a bit like the Chasing Dragon Clan in Ten Thousand Clans? ?
