Chapter 49 Plot clues
Under the gloomy sky, Li Muyang sat on the field ridge and opened his eyes again.
He scratched his head and was speechless.
"He's so damn dead again..."
Did Manager Wu take some medicine today?
Why kill someone when they meet?
After meeting Manager Wu, the system will give him two options, but no matter which one Li Muyang chooses, he will be violently hacked by Manager Wu, leaving him with no way to survive.
After dying several times in a row, Li Muyang is speechless now.
"I will die if I see Manager Wu, but I can't help but not see him..."
It stands to reason that it is impossible for interactive games to give a certain death option. If a certain death option is given, it proves that a certain previous key choice must have triggered the death flag, so the certain death option will appear.
But the three stages of development have just begun, and the game's plot has not even progressed a few steps. It is impossible for Li Muyang to trigger the death flag.
"Could it be that the point of breaking the situation is before meeting Manager Wu?"
Li Muyang read the file again, and this time he read the file to the end, before going to the ancestral temple to meet Granny Gu.
After loading into the game, Li Muyang met Xiao Yecao.
"Brother, Granny Gu wants us to meet her later."
Xiao Yecao informed this news.
Li Muyang shook his head: "No, let's go directly to the mountains."
This time, Li Muyang chose not to see Granny Gu, but took Xiaoweicao directly into the mountains to avoid the plot of the ancestral temple.
After arriving at the cave on time, Manager Wu stopped killing him, but his attitude was still as cold as usual.
After drawing blood with Xiao Weicao in the cave, Li Muyang took Xiao Weicao back to the village.
However, a cold wind suddenly appeared on the mountain road, and darkness suddenly flooded Li Muyang like a tide.
The feeling of being touched by a strange creature in the ancestral temple appeared again.
[You have died, the game has failed]
The death interface popped up, and Li Muyang opened his eyes on the field ridge.
"If I don't see Granny Gu, she will kill me directly?"
Li Muyang scratched his head: "It seems that my use value is not as great as imagined? If I don't go to see her as agreed, she will kill me directly without giving any chance to quibble."
This old woman is a bit murderous.
Li Muyang closed his eyes and entered the game again.
If you don't see Granny Gu, you will die. If you go to see Manager Wu after the plot of the ancestral temple is triggered, you will die.
So the breaking point should be between these two plots.
Li Muyang quickly found the direction to break the game and read the file again.
This time the archive was made when he and Xiao Yecao had just come out of the ancestral temple.
After leaving the ancestral temple, Li Muyang did not take Xiao Yecao directly to Manager Wu.
He was walking on the mountain road with the little weeds, thinking about what room he could maneuver before meeting Manager Wu.
The outsider demon cultivators in Heiyun Village are cruel and powerful. This group of demon cultivators is headed by a mysterious temple lord. However, Miao Fengjun is extremely mysterious and never appears in front of others. The villagers have never seen the true appearance of Miao Fengjun.
There are three cave masters under the temple lord, and under these three cave masters, there are eighteen stewards.
Manager Wu is one of them. Among all the demon cultivators, Manager Wu is already considered an elite monster with a high status.
It was impossible for Li Muyang to bypass Manager Wu and find the three cave masters, otherwise he would die faster.
This kind of evil cultivator from the old era is cruel and vicious, much more treacherous than the demonic cultivator with evil procedures like Demon Refining Sect, and there is basically no reason to explain.
Li Muyang walked into the cave with Xiao Weicao, but he did not go directly to Manager Wu. Instead, he bypassed the blood room and wandered around the cave.
The caves connected one after another form a vast underground world.
These caves are all extremely tall, with the highest points even hundreds of meters high. You don't feel depressed at all when you are in the caves.
Coupled with the transformation of the cave by the magic cultivators, except that the air in the air is obviously much moister and colder, there is almost no big difference between this place and the outside world.
There are even many beautiful spiritual flowers planted in the large hollow outside the pharmacy. The flower stems glow in the dark, like a fairy tale world.
Xiao Yecao followed Li Muyang and watched him bypass the blood room and visit all the caves they could visit. She couldn't help but ask.
"Brother, why don't we go to the blood room? If we don't go, Manager Wu will really get angry."
Xiao Yecao said worriedly.
Li Muyang, however, wandered around the cave as if he had nothing to do. He would chat with a demon cultivator when he caught him.
Talking to NPCs in the game is one of the main ways to obtain key information.
But now that Li Muyang saw a demon cultivator, he stepped forward to talk to him.
"...Brother, nothing happened in the cave today, right?"
"Sister, have you heard what happened in the cave today?"
"Hey...Uncle Dao, did you hear anything about what happened in the cave today?"
Li Muyang chatted with every NPC he met, trying to trigger key plot points.
However, after going through several conventional scenes such as the alchemy room, pharmacy, and marrow washing pool, Li Muyang still found the key clues.
Facing his inquiry, everyone was confused and didn't know what Li Muyang was talking about.
Fortunately, the low-level demon cultivators in this cave are all members of the Black Cloud Village like Li Muyang.
They wrap their hands with ribbons and follow the temple lord to cultivate demons. They are still natives of Heiyun Village and are acquaintances of the character "Jiang Xiaoyu".
Therefore, although Li Muyang's behavior of running around is strange, no one dislikes him.
The enthusiastic demon cultivator also reminded Li Muyang to take the lost soul to the blood room as soon as possible without delay. Manager Wu has a bad temper and something will really happen if he is angered.
And as expected, Manager Wu appeared quickly as everyone said.
"Jiang Xiaoyu! You didn't bring the lost soul to draw blood, but you're still running around in the cave... You want to make a big fuss, don't you?"
The gloomy-looking Manager Wu suddenly appeared and stopped Li Muyang.
Apparently the news spread that Li Muyang was running around in the cave, and Manager Wu followed the news.
Looking at Li Muyang with cold eyes, Manager Wu said: "Since you don't want to do something, then don't do it in the future!"
After the voice fell, Manager Wu waved his sleeves, and blood-red characters popped up in front of Li Muyang's eyes again.
[You have died, the game has failed]
Li Muyang on the field ridge opened his eyes and pondered for a moment.
"The plot clues cannot be triggered in the cave. Are the plot clues outside the cave?"
He read the file again, but this time he did not enter the cave, but wandered around the Black Cloud Village.
Li Muyang repeated his old trick and chatted with all the villagers he saw.
There were more villagers in the village. Li Muyang had been wandering around for two or three hours, but still no key clues were triggered.
Then two hours later, Manager Wu came over after hearing the news with cold eyes.
"Boy, do you dare to go over time?"
The next second, blood splattered and the game failed.
Li Muyang opened his eyes and read the file again.
"There are no clues in the cave, and there are no clues in the village...could the clue be on the mountain road before entering the cave?"
