Real Cthulhu Running Game

If there is a conflict between two important NPCs of the same faction, it will be a very difficult choice for the players, let alone this kind of blood feud, where one NPC wants to kill another NPC.

Faced with such a situation, the player has only two options. One is to choose to help the two NPCs to reconcile. However, judging from the current situation, unless Gangzi was not killed by the mountain monster, Hu Cang would not be able to give up on Zhong Rensan.

Therefore, Liu Xing felt that the best choice for his group at present was to start to stand on the side and decide whether his group would stand on Hu Cang's side or Zhong Rensan's side.

But this is a very difficult choice.

If you choose to side with Hu Cang, then you must help Hu Cang kill Zhong Rensan. Although Zhong Rensan is just an ordinary middle-aged and elderly person, it should be easy and stress-free to kill Zhong Rensan.

Therefore, only by killing the mountain demon can Zhong Rensan take out the jade pendant, but Liu Xing feels that Hu Cang has become a bit black now, and it is likely that he will not wait until Zhong Rensan hands over the jade pendant before doing it.

And if my group chooses to stand on the side of Zhong Rensan, then they will definitely break with Hu Cang. At that time, my group will be kicked out of Hu Cang's house. As far as the current situation is concerned, Hu Cang's home is the "resurrection point" for my group in this module. . .

And even if his group is on the side of Zhong Rensan, Hu Cang will not choose to give up the plan to kill Zhong Rensan, then unless his group kills Hu Cang, he will face Hu Cang's endless pursuit, not to mention Hu Cang and Hu Li, a powerful ally.

Therefore, no matter standing on Hu Cang's side or Zhong Rensan's side, there are advantages and disadvantages. However, in terms of the current situation, Liu Xing is still more inclined to Hu Cang's side. After all, his group has established a cooperative relationship with Hu Cang, and the cooperation between his group and Hu Li was largely negotiated by Hu Cang.

But Liu Xing also knew that even if his group and Hu Li would help Hu Cang, it would not be easy for Hu Cang to kill Zhong Rensan. After all, there was a mountain monster beside Zhong Rensan.

The most important thing is that Liu Xing can be sure that Zhong Rensan, who is an important NPC in this module, also has a plot line. Even if his group gets Hu Cang to kill Zhong Rensan after getting the jade pendant, then this will miss a lot of useful information, and this is Zhong Rensan's exclusive information.

Thinking of this, Liu Xing felt a little headache.

Moreover, the current atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while, after all, Zhang Jingxu and others thought the same as Liu Xing, and were also struggling with how to stand in line now.

As for Hu Cang, he looked at Liu Xing and his party with a serious face, wanting to know the choice of Liu Xing and his party.

Liu Xing secretly sighed in his heart, it seemed that he had to stand up and show his position, and set the pace. After all, in the Cthulhu running game, the most taboo was the players who were supposed to be on the same line but stood on the opposite side.

Therefore, the first person to stand up and make a decision at this time can basically determine the line of other people.

So, in order to prevent Zhang Jingxu and others from standing up first and refusing to help Hu Cang take revenge on Zhong Ren, when Liu Xing was about to speak, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a little girl bouncing past the clinic door.

little girl? !

Liu Xing frowned, got up quickly and walked out of the clinic, looked in the direction the little girl was walking, and found that a little girl with double ponytails and wearing green clothes had mixed into the rushing crowd.

Liu Xing got up suddenly, but Zhang Jingxu and others were taken aback, so Zhang Jingxu said with some doubts: "What's the matter, student Meteor, what's the matter with your sudden surprise?"

Liu Xing turned around, frowned and said: "I just saw a little girl passing by the door, so I got up and chased it out to have a look, and found that it should indeed be a little girl."

Hu Cang frowned, and said, "What, Mr. Meteor, you read it right, right? I have been in this time-space-distorted Panlong Town for so long. Except for Hu Li and the proprietress of the black Internet cafe, I have never seen other women, especially some little girls, who don't exist at all, okay? So Mr. Meteor, you read it right, right?"

Liu Xing nodded seriously, and said, "That's right, I'm sure it's a little girl. Although what I saw just now was only the back view, she was wearing a green suit and wearing a double ponytail, and judging from her body shape, she should be a girl, so she is either a little girl, or a big lady dressed in women's clothes."

"Big lady in women's clothing?" Hu Cang asked suspiciously.

Liu Xing was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that in the era when Hu Cang entered Panlong Town, the term "lady in disguise" hadn't officially become popular, so Hu Cang didn't know what it meant.

At this time, Zhang Jingxu stood up and helped Liu Xing, "Mr. Hu Cang, a lady dressed as a big guy is a popular word in Meteor's island country, which means a man wearing a lady's suit."

Hu Cang suddenly realized, nodded and said: "So that's the case, but in this way, I heard that in our town near Panlong Town, there are indeed many children who wear women's clothing. You should all know the reason. Because of family income and patriarchal reasons, some families gave birth to boys after having several daughters. Because the family conditions are relatively poor, they can only wear the old clothes of the older daughters for the little boys."

"However, Mr. Meteor, the little girl you saw shouldn't be a big girl in women's clothes, because in my impression, there are no big boys in clothes in Beaulieu Town, because no boy has long hair and a double ponytail, and no boy has a green dress. After all, in Beaulieu Town in this era, the color of children's clothes is relatively simple, basically either black or white."

So, is this really a little girl?

Liu Xing stroked his chin and said, "If this is really a little girl, then I think we need to find her now and find a way to find out her identity to see if she is a native of Panlong Town or a foreigner who entered Panlong Town like us."

While talking, Liu Xing gave Zhang Jingxu and others a wink behind Hu Cang's back.

Zhang Jingxu and others instantly understood what Liu Xing meant, knowing that Liu Xing was planning to find that little girl, and by the way, discuss the issue of standing in line for his group, after all, brainstorming.

Ever since, Zhang Jingxu and the others stood up one after another, expressing that they were going outside to look for the little girl.

Because he had to take care of Xiao Mochen who was still dumbfounded, Hu Cang could only say that he stayed at the clinic.

After leaving the clinic, Liu Xing said, "Zhang Jingxu, what do you think? Are we on the side of Hu Cang this time, or are we on the side of Zhong Rensan?"

Zhang Jingxu said without hesitation: "Of course I'm on Hu Cang's side this time. After all, we have a good relationship with Hu Cang, and according to the news you got from Hu Li, Meteor, Zhong Rensan came to Panlong Town to find food for the mountain monster. guilty."

Li Dian nodded, and continued: "That's right, Zhang Jingxu and I have the same thoughts. Although Zhong Rensan was killed by his ancestors, he was entangled by a mountain monster, and finally had to provide food for the mountain monster, because if he did not provide food for the mountain monster, the mountain monster would kill the whole family. However, this does not mean that Zhong Rensan can persecute other people's lives for his own family's life. Besides, Zhong Rensan and his family have gained a lot of benefits. After all, those precious medicinal materials are very valuable. "

Wan Chongshan sighed, nodded and said, "That's right, poor people must have something to hate. Hu Cang wants to find Zhong Rensan for revenge, and we have no reason to stop Hu Cang, so I have the same idea as Zhang Jingxu and Li Dian, and stand on Hu Cang's side."

Seeing this situation, Liu Xing smiled and said: "In this case, it seems that we are already on the same front. I think the same as you, it is better to stand on Hu Cang's side, but we still have a problem to solve, that is the jade pendant in Zhong Rensan's hand."

Zhang Jingxu frowned, and said: "This is a bit troublesome. The jade pendant in Zhong Rensan's hand is very important to us. After all, if we want to deal with that Chakang... um, that is the Chaxi you mentioned, classmate Meteor. Without that jade pendant, I'm afraid we won't be able to die together with Chaxi. After all, the Gu envoys in the Miaojiang area are more difficult to deal with than one. Suddenly, I also thought of a way to restrain the Gu envoys, because I have never encountered Gu envoys before. . . ”

Liu Xing nodded and said seriously: "Well, since you have even said that about Zhang Jingxu, then we have to get the jade pendant, so although we have to stand on Hu Cang's side, we must first get the jade pendant before sending Hu Cang to take revenge on Zhong Rensan. So after we go back later, we will show our position to Hu Cang and try our best to make Hu Cang guarantee that he will not rashly scatter his hands on Zhong Ren."

Zhang Jingxu and others nodded, expressing their agreement with Liu Xing's idea.

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, Liu Xing saw the little girl in green again.

Because the little girl in green got mixed into the crowd again, Liu Xing didn't have time to tell Zhang Jingxu and others, so he hurriedly chased after the little girl in green.

But Zhang Jingxu and others saw Liu Xing running up suddenly, they knew that Liu Xing had seen the little girl in green clothes, so they also ran after Liu Xing.

Finally, in front of a stall selling popcorn, Liu Xing finally caught up with the little girl in green.

However, when he saw the little girl in green, Liu Xing was stunned for a moment. To put it simply, the little girl in green was so beautiful, like a porcelain doll, and she also had a hint of immortality, which made Liu Xing's idea of ​​"three years of blood earning" disappear in a flash, and was replaced by an inexplicable sense of worship.

At this time, Liu Xing smelled a strange fragrance from the little girl in green clothes, some like the fragrance of flowers, and some like the fragrance of green grass.

So, to sum up, Liu Xing can be sure that the little girl in green clothes is a mythical creature, and even doubts that the little girl in green clothes will be the incarnation of Nyarlathotep.

At this time, Zhang Jingxu and others also chased after him.

Just like Liu Xing, Zhang Jingxu and the others were also shocked when they saw the little girl in green clothes, and when they came back to their senses, they all took a step back in unison.

After all, the little girl in green clothes is not human at first glance, so it is better to be careful.

At this moment, the little girl in green pointed at the popcorn and said, "I want this."

Liu Xing and the others looked at each other, and then Zhang Jingxu stepped forward, bought a bag of popcorn and handed it to the little girl in green.

Then, Zhang Jingxu smiled and said to the little girl in green: "Hi, little sister, I think you are not a native of Panlong Town."

The little girl in green nodded and said with a smile: "Of course, I am definitely not from Panlong Town, because I am not human at all."

Liu Xing raised his brows, he didn't expect the little girl in green clothes to be so upright that she directly admitted that she was not human. . .

Zhang Jingxu smiled awkwardly, and said, "Little sister, you really know how to joke."

The little girl in green shook her head and said seriously, "I'm not joking."
