Chapter 166 Can I struggle a bit?

Chapter 166 Can I struggle a little?

Canaan College is located in the heart of the Blackhorn Region.

The Skeleton City is located in the southern part of the Black Horn Region.

It’s a long way from Skeleton City.

After passing through Dusk City, Tianyin City, and Qianban City, we arrived at Heping Town, which means we have entered the sphere of influence of Canaan Academy.

Yang Shan believed that Xiao Xun'er must have an extremely advanced mount.

But the players didn't.

So we walked relatively slowly along the way.

By the evening, they were still on their way to Dusk City.

Although the human race is the "lord of all races", the Douqi Continent is too large. Apart from the gathering places established by the human race, the rest of the place is still a natural place more suitable for the survival of monsters.

So the team is now in the mountains and forests, and has suffered several monster attacks in succession.

However, the monsters were generally weak, and there were no casualties.

An NPC senior said:

"Everyone, take a rest here and try to reach Dusk City before night falls."

Yang Shan was conscientious in his duties along the way, and occasionally chatted with players such as Mei Yangyang.

However, Yang Shan did not show too much enthusiasm towards Xiao Xun'er.

Mainly because it's useless.

This girl is really different from ordinary girls.

The education I received and the things I came into contact with since childhood are hard for others to imagine.

Compared with Xiao Xun'er's background, Nalan Yanran looks like a country girl.
There are so many people who are enthusiastic about Xiao Xun'er.

Xiao Xun'er had long been numb.

So Yang Shan did the opposite!
He walked up to Xiao Xun'er.

At this moment, Xiao Xun'er was standing next to a tree eating food.

This food is similar to Roujiamo and tastes pretty good.

Xiao Xun'er naturally saw Yang Shan approaching, but Xiao Xun'er noticed that Yang Shan's eyes were not on her, but on the roujiamo in her hand.

Yang Shan: "Senior, can you give me some food?"

Yang Shan, who had a lot of food in his ring, now looked like he hadn't eaten for two days. Looking at the roujiamo in Xiao Xun'er's hand, he swallowed unconsciously.

Those young actors who only know how to make money cannot learn such acting skills even in 20 years!

Xiao Xun'er was really confused now.

When she was in the ancient clan, all her peers were very respectful to her and didn’t even dare to look up at her.

After going out to gain experience and coming to Canaan College, she had seen too many people who offered her all kinds of good things to express their admiration for her or who wanted to make friends with her.

But Yang Shan seemed to think that Roujiamo looked much better than her!
How to leave an impression in front of a girl who can be said to have no desires?

Three elements:

Contrast!

Contrast!

It’s still the fucking contrast!
Give her what she has rarely seen!
Yang Shan only hoped that Xiao Xun'er would give him something to eat for Ruolin's sake.

There is a story only when NPCs take the initiative.

But for the NPC to take the initiative, a reason is needed.

Maybe you do a lot of things for the NPC, but it won’t increase the NPC’s favorability at all.

But these things are not entirely in vain.

NPCs have their own memory banks, and these behaviors may one day become "reasons" for NPCs to take the initiative.

Yang Shan seized a small loophole in Xiao Xun'er's character:

polite.

Xiao Xun'er was the most popular among the player community in her previous life, not just because of her appearance and her identity as the heroine of the original novel.

Also because many of her actions are out of politeness.

Therefore, if any student of Canaan College met Xiao Xun'er on the street and called her "Senior Sister", Xiao Xun'er would at least respond with a smile and a nod.

Smiling is the expression that appears most easily on Xiao Xun'er's face.

So, if a junior is hungry and wants something to eat, would you give it to him out of politeness?

Generally speaking, no.

Because Xiao Xun'er has other senior students on her side, they can also give it.

But Yang Shan is the talented student that teacher Ruolin has been thinking about!
As Ruolin's most respected student and also her senior, it is within the scope of "courtesy" to take care of her.

So Xiao Xun'er didn't hesitate much and naturally took out another serving of Roujiamo from her ring. She even asked:
"enough?"

Yang Shan: "That's enough, I don't have a big appetite, thank you, senior sister!"

After Yang Shan took the roujiamo, he seemed to be thinking about something.

Then he put the roujiamo in his mouth, freed his hands, took off his Fire Cloud robe, and spread it behind Xiao Xun'er.

Xiao Xun'er just looked at Yang Shan quietly.

"You've been traveling for such a long time, aren't your legs sore? Everyone else is sitting, but you insisted on standing. Now you can sit down."

Yang Shan chewed his meat bun and said unclearly:
"I ate my senior's food, so I can't just owe her a favor. Otherwise, I'll be embarrassed to take it in the future. Now we're even."

Xiao Xun'er actually wanted to say that she didn't sit down just because her legs really didn't feel sore!

But Yang Shan insisted on linking the matter to "favors", and Xiao Xun'er really didn't want others to think that they owed her a favor because of such a small matter.

Xiao Xun'er, who was calm and composed, chose to go with the flow and sat down.

The purple-lettered Hundred-Refined-level equipment is what countless players dream of.

But now it has been taken by Xiao Xun'er. According to the nature of some players, the price of this equipment can be tripled or quadrupled!
Yang Shan did not take the initiative and sit on the Fire Cloud Robe with Xiao Xun'er. Instead, he sat opposite Xiao Xun'er, and the distance between them was absolutely reasonable.

Yang Shan held the roujiamo in both hands and ate it with great relish, as if it was the most delicious thing in the world.

He didn't even look up at Xiao Xun'er.

Xiao Xun'er continued to chew the roujiamo in her mouth, and after swallowing it, she said:
"Young fellow Yang Shan."

Yang Shan: “Hmm?”

Xiao Xun'er: "Is that thing important to you?"

"Of course it's important. Without it, I can't solve the problems of the Gama Empire."

Xiao Xun'er: "Gama Empire, I heard from Teacher Ruolin that if you only stay in the Gama Empire, you will be shackled and it will be difficult to climb to the real peak."

"There's nothing we can do. The Gama Empire is in danger right now."

Yang Shan seemed to speak casually:
"There is a force called Qingyun Society over there. They hide in the dark and have been causing chaos for a long time. One time, I passed by a village and saw beautiful mountains and rivers. I wanted to practice in peace and meditation there for a while."

Xiao Xun'er: "Village? Is the village beautiful?"

Yang Shan: "You don't know the village?"

Xiao Xun'er: "I've read about it in books, but I've never seen it. The books say that villages are mostly built by ordinary people who choose to avoid cities where competition for resources is fierce because they can't practice. They are small settlements that are not too far from cities and are rarely invaded by monsters."

Yang Shan nodded: "Yes, because they live in harmony with the world, most of the people in those villages are simple-minded."

Speaking of this, Yang Shan seemed particularly excited:

"Senior, do you know that I stayed in that village for a month? A whole month! The ordinary people in the village didn't ask me for a penny!"

"They were always smiling and said that there hadn't been any guests in the village for a long time and they hoped I could enjoy my stay here. They also often sent me large and small packages of homemade bacon, local eggs and vegetables."

"Sometimes when I'm lazy, I can go to the villagers' homes for a meal!"

Xiao Xun'er has a very high vision. Being from an ancient clan, what kind of good things has she not seen?

But Xiao Xun'er had never seen the life of the lowest class of human beings in the Douqi Continent.

Curiosity comes from the unknown. Xiao Xun'er listened very carefully:
"It seems that they are really kind." "Yes, but sometimes good people may not be rewarded."

The smile on Yang Shan's face gradually faded.

The roujiamo that was already in my mouth didn't seem to be fragrant anymore.

Xiao Xun'er was very smart and immediately guessed the reason why Yang Shan was acting strangely:

"Qingyun Club?"

Yang Shan nodded:

"How can I, Yang Shan, eat and drink for free? When I returned to the city, I bought several carts of livestock cubs and seeds and sent them to the villagers. They are ordinary people, and these are most useful to them."

Yang Shan stuffed the half-eaten roujiamo in his hand into his mouth and chewed it desperately.

Xiao Xun'er didn't urge him and waited quietly for Yang Shan to finish eating.

After Yang Shan swallowed it, Xiao Xun'er handed him some water.

Yang Shan was not polite, he took it and drank a few gulps, then said:

"Everything is gone. The houses have all collapsed. Old people, children, no one is spared. The Douhuang of Qingyun Society said that the souls of ordinary people can also be used. We just need to gather more."

"soul?"

Xiao Xun'er grasped the word accurately.

Yang Shan took another sip of water, as if he was drinking to drown his sorrows:

"If I hadn't run away quickly and escaped with a Breath-Resisting Pill I accidentally got, I wouldn't be alive today."

Xiao Xun'er blinked:
"You're in luck."

Yang Shan spent a lot of time talking about this story.

But the story is true!

It happened in a previous life.

However, the villains were not the Qingyun Society, but the Wanxie Sect of the Izumo Empire.

At that time, Yang Shan stayed in the village for a month because he was looking for an opportunity.

When he got the chance and prepared to return to the village to settle down, all the NPCs in the village had been taken away by the Wanxie Sect for poison experiments.

In a rage, Yang Shan rushed to the Wanxie Sect, but he was no match for the Wanxie Sect's Dou Zong-level supreme elder.

Yang Shan was never able to avenge that grudge until his rebirth.

Yang Shan finally laughed, although it looked a little forced:

"So, Senior Sister, I will do everything I can to take that thing away from you. I may pester you, but I promise that I will not use force or any despicable means."

Xiao Xun'er: "Junior, there are other ways to become stronger. There is no need to be obsessed with something that you cannot do."

Yang Shan: "Senior sister, do you think that I will have to give you the things in the end?"

Xiao Xun'er nodded:
"Well, your chances are probably slim."

Yang Shan smiled bitterly: "Then can I struggle a little?"

“This is your right.”

Xiao Xun'er stood up, keeping her proper smile:
"Thank you for sharing these things with me. This has given me a better understanding of the village."

Yang Shan: "You can use your ears to know and recognize, but it is better to use your own eyes to recognize. If you have time, you can go to some villages to have a look."

Xiao Xun'er: "Okay."

Yang Shan picked up the Fire Cloud Robe and dusted it off:

"Okay, senior sister, I'll bother you more in the future!"

The roujiamo was finished, and it was inappropriate for Yang Shan to stand next to Xiao Xun'er anymore.

He had to make sure that Xiao Xun'er didn't feel awkward when interacting with him.

So Yang Shan returned to the freshmen.

Xiao Xun'er's gaze did not linger on Yang Shan for too long.

She thought to herself:

"Village. Qingyun Society. Could it be that the Soul Palace is restricted in Zhongzhou, so it has secretly sent people to other regions?"

[Ding! Players, please note that Xiao Xun'er is grateful to the player for improving her cognition. Xiao Xun'er's favorability is increased by 1. Current favorability: 1! ]

Hearing the system prompt, Yang Shan breathed a sigh of relief.

It is so difficult to increase Xiao Xun'er's favorability that many players in the previous life used themselves as examples on the forum.

Being able to gain a little favorability in a short contact is already a pleasant surprise.

After all, usually, the increase or decrease in favorability will only occur when the NPC actively interacts.

Mei Yangyang saw Yang Shan coming back and whispered:
"Master Yang, why did you talk to Xiao Xun'er for so long?"

Yang Shan: "What's wrong?"

Mei Yangyang: "We followed Xiao Xun'er all the way. Xiao Xun'er basically just said a few words, be careful, it's okay, it's time to hurry on."

Yang Shan: "Of course I have special communication skills."

Mei Yangyang's eyes are full of stars:
"Wow, Master Yang, you are amazing."

Yang Shan still feels very benefited by the admiration of the little fan girl.

Who would have thought that Mei Yangyang's next sentence would be:
"Can you teach me so I can use it to repair the cliffs in the forest?"

Just then, a rustling sound suddenly occurred in the forest.

The experienced college students have already taken out their weapons:

"Be careful, someone is coming!"

In the Blackhorn region, especially outside the city.

When people meet, they usually don't smile and nod, but instead smile, draw their swords and say "robbery".

From the four directions of southeast, northwest, northeast and southwest, there were about ten people each, attacking the Canaan College student team at an extremely fast speed.

The leaders of the four teams are all Douling-level masters!
The humble little employee finally got the job done.

Yang Shan had been waiting for this moment for too long.

Sometimes, when there are no opportunities, you need to create them.

The killers in the Blood Robbery Tower always care about money rather than people.

Except Canaan College!

There was no way, Luo Xie, the master of the Jiexue Tower, couldn't even beat Hu Qian, the dean of the external school of Canaan College.

However, the killers of the Blood Robbery Tower usually have another identity in the Black Horn Region.

Among them there must be people from the Blood Clan.

Yang Shan’s task of giving Su Yitang was very simple.

Carrying 200,000 spirit stones, he went to rob the Blood Tower and asked two people whose identities were openly those of the Blood Sect to find the Blood Sect's young leader Fan Ling, and described to him in vivid detail how he met a peerless beauty in the Skeleton City.

Most men like beautiful women.

The same goes for Fan Ling.

Moreover, he likes to use the natural Yin energy of women to temper his fighting spirit after entering the sage mode.

After all, the Blood Sect's founding technique is based on the cold and yin nature of blood.

A stunning beauty is about to pass through Twilight City, how can you miss it?
If the other party is an inner school student of Canaan College, Fan Ling might have to think about it.

But if they are just students from other colleges, there are also many prospective students in the team who have not officially reported.

Then there is no need to worry about anything!
There are indeed many geniuses in Canaan College.

But even if there are geniuses in the outer courtyard, they have not yet grown up.

Kill them all and take the beauty away!
Four teams surrounded the students of Canaan College. Fan Ling rode a gray wolf and looked at Xiao Xun'er with an obscene smile on his face:
"What a stunning beauty! Hehe."
