Chapter 127: Farmer: Xu Zhiyuan

"An old man? I thought this was a treasure trove of barbarians, but it turned out to be a dungeon with an old man imprisoned in it."

"An old man who could be sealed and locked up by barbarians must be quite powerful."

"Let's ask him who he is. If we trigger a hidden mission, we'll get rich!"

Several players who entered the dungeon saw a disabled old man curled up inside the hole. After whispering a few words, they shouted loudly to the disabled old man in the room:
"Old man, old man, who are you, what are you?"

"Old man, how long have you been held captive by the barbarians?"

"Old man, we are from the Yancheng Zhenbei Army. Can you tell us your identity?"

The player's shouting attracted the attention of the disabled old man. The disabled old man looked up tremblingly, which immediately startled the player.

What a face of suffering!
There were scars all over his face, with the skin and flesh turned outward, forming a hideous ghost symbol on his face. He had two pairs of eyes, and the eyeball of one eye had been gouged out, making the empty eye sockets particularly scary.

The other eye seemed to have not seen the light for too long, the eyeball was almost entirely white and the eyeball was almost invisible.

"These beasts are torturing the old man like this!"

"God damn barbarians, how cruel and insane!"

"Fuck it, I can't take it anymore. I'm going to kill some barbarians to vent my anger!"

The appearance of the old man made the players indignant. Seeing this old man who was tortured by the barbarians in various ways and was almost unrecognizable, several players could not bear it and rushed out with weapons to kill the barbarians.

"Don't be impulsive, brothers, lend a hand and save him!"

"He must be an important person to be tortured by the barbarians and imprisoned deep in the dungeon. Let's rescue him."

"Even if he's not an important person, we can't watch him continue to suffer here!"

"First break the wall, then rescue the old man, go to the forum and shake more brothers, and ask them to come for support!"

Seven players divided the work clearly and started to rescue the disabled old man. Four players started to knock on the wall, trying to break it open. Two players stood outside the dungeon to guard against the barbarians from coming to kill them.

Another player simply lay on the ground, logged off and went to the forum to start calling people.

As the wall was chiseled bigger and bigger, a strong stench wafted out of the room. The player who was rescuing the old man in the dungeon endured the nausea and simply took off a strip of cloth from his body and continued to rescue the old man.

After about ten minutes, the players chiseled a hole in the wall of the dungeon that was big enough for people to pass through. One of the players, named Li Yueheng, entered the room first. He wanted to help the old man out, but he didn't expect that the old man's legs were as soft as mud and he couldn't stand at all.

The old man's legs were broken by the barbarians and he couldn't stand up at all.

"Ahhhh!"

"Fuck you barbarians, you are beasts, beasts!"

Such a scene made Li Yueheng feel blocked in the heart. He roared twice, put his hands on the old man's chest, and regardless of the old man's dirty body and the stench, he carefully held him and walked towards the cave entrance.

"I am a member. I am a member."

A weak, vague, hoarse and harsh sound like the friction of paper rubbing against each other came out of the disabled old man's mouth. Because he had not spoken for a long time, the disabled old man's articulation was unclear and his pronunciation was inaccurate, so the players could not understand what he was saying at all.

"Can you hear what he's saying?"

"I can't hear it clearly. The sound is too soft and too vague."

"Don't listen. Look at the old man's hand. It seems he is pointing at something." Li Yueheng's eyes followed the direction of the old man's finger and saw a black, greasy object. He gently put the old man down, took the black, greasy object in his hand, and found it was a torn book.

When he opened the book, the contents were like ghost paintings, which made it completely incomprehensible. Li Yueheng placed the book in front of the old man and asked, "Old man, is this what you want?"

The one-eyed disabled old man with only the white of his eye could not see the book clearly at all. He stretched out his hand to feel around. Seeing this, Li Yueheng hurriedly put the book in the old man's hand.

"Yes Yes."

Li Yueheng put his ear close to the old man and finally heard the two words "yes" clearly. He nodded slightly, made an OK gesture to the players outside the wall, then hugged the old man and struggled to get out of the room in the dungeon.

"Are there any brothers to support you?"

"No, now everyone is frantically killing barbarians and looting supplies. No one is on the forum."

"Damn, let's be careful and try to avoid the barbarians!"

Li Yueheng was suddenly in great pain. Although he was an "old player" who entered the game in version 0.5, the herbs in Yancheng were sold out. He had already completed the pre-tasks for the job change of the Gongyang Sect, but now he was stuck in the job change process because he had no herbs.

Now, he can only be said to be stronger than the novice players, but he is still a layman and has not yet entered the stage of studying.

The six players around him were in a similar situation as him. They followed the powerful veteran players into the Iltsk Oasis. Chun Chun followed them just to experience it, not to see the combat effectiveness.

It would be great if seven people could kill two barbarians together.

"Go, go, go, be careful!"

"Xu Peng, Lao Yang, you two go explore the way first. Be sure to avoid the barbarians. Let's rescue the old man first!"

"Roger that!"

Two players were exploring the way ahead, and the remaining five players were protecting the disabled old man from behind. They groped their way out of the Iltsk Oasis to rescue the old man.

The Iltsk Oasis first erupted in a camp roar, then was invaded by players, and with the evacuation order issued by Wuzhuliuruo, the entire camp was in chaos.

But compared to the chaotic camp and the military camp where fierce fighting was taking place, the dungeon was relatively quiet. Li Yueheng and his group evacuated with the disabled elderly and unexpectedly did not encounter a single enemy.

This made the seven players feel relieved, especially after they left the two-kilometer range of Iltsk Oasis, they breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's next?"

"Go to the new resurrection point, or..."

"First, go to the new resurrection point to rent a carriage, and then go to Yancheng!"

Li Yueheng decisively chose to return to Yancheng. They first carried the old man to the new resurrection point and rented a carriage. Li Yueheng took the lead in taking off his shirt, and used the shirts of seven or eight players as bedding and placed them on the flatbed of the carriage, and then carefully placed the disabled old man on the flatbed.

Afterwards, a group of eight people took a carriage and headed towards Yancheng.

It takes one and a half hours by carriage from the new resurrection point to Yancheng. During this one and a half hour journey, Li Yueheng finally figured out the identity of the disabled old man.

During the Shang Dynasty, the Ji official of the Jixia Mausoleum in Yongzhou.

And his other identity is: farmer - Xu Zhiyuan.
