The moment the boss fell to the ground, all of the members in Bai Lixin’s party also saw the system announcement, and the entire chat room was abuzz with excitement.

They had made almost zero mistakes during the dungeon raid just now.

First off, everyone had been in a club for a long time and had strong teamwork.

The second thing is that Bai Lixin picked players who are reliable, and although some of them were not equipped with the best equipment, their awareness or ability to listen to the command must be the best.

Additionally, there was also Bai Lixin’s advance explanation and his ability to adapt in the process of commanding in the face of danger. These points were all winning factors, and none were indispensable.

Seeing his team get the first armor, Bai Lixin breathed a light sigh of relief and smiled, “Thank you all for your cooperation. Without you, we wouldn’t have had this result today. ”

The rest of the team had also come for the first armor, and the fact that they had quickly cleared the level to get their coveted weapons because they had listened to Bai Lixin’s command had long been something that had excited them to the core.

The thought of the orange equipment that they would soon be able to own made the crowd unable to stop squealing in the chat room.

“Lu, you’re amazing! You are simply a treasure, the treasure of our club. If you were a woman, I would have married you off to be the wife of our club’s head. ”

Pei Fuchen:”… ”

Heh! This gang, it’s time to change the club leader!

Before the crowd’s cheers were over, a white smoke rose up from where the boss had fallen to the ground, followed by the appearance of a white-clothed old man with a white beard and an immortal demeanor.

As soon as Lao Er saw the old man, he dashed up to talk to him, only to have the old man speak:

“Don’t be reckless, little ant. How dare you talk to this old man? Let the one who leads your group come and speak to me.

Lao Er touched his nose and slowly backed away.

When Bai Lixin saw Old Man Tianji, his heart moved and he maneuvered his character up to him.

This time, the old man did not chase away Bai Lu as he had done earlier. Instead, Old Man Tianji made a gesture of raising his arms to embrace the sky.

Old man Tianji: “Oh, young warrior. My soul has been imprisoned here in the Demon’s Cave for a thousand years and has finally been redeemed. A thousand years ago, I died and fell after the great battle between immortals and demons, and my soul was trapped here, tangling with these demons day in and day out. ”

“Young man, would you please send me to the River of Forgetfulness and help me reincarnate? I am an old man with nothing to repay you, and I have nothing precious to give you now, except for a dragon and phoenix soul-attracting jade pendant from the Nine Heavens above. However, this divine weapon is a set of two; the Dragon Soul-attracting Jade Pendant and the Phoenix Soul-attracting Jade Pendant. So you need to find a destined person to send me to the River of Forgetfulness to obtain this divine weapon. ”

After the old man finished this large paragraph, a dialog box appeared on the computer screen in front of Bai Lixin:

[Will you accept the hidden quest: River of Forgetfulness? Once this quest is abandoned, it will automatically disappear and cannot be obtained again. Yes, No.]

Bai Lixin didn’t even think twice and clicked “Yes.”

The old man then said: “Brave young man, my soul pearl will guide you in the right direction. This is the Dragon and Phoenix Soul Guide Jade Pendant. Please take it. ”

After saying these words, he disappeared into a white light.

Along with the disappearance of old man TianJi, Bai Lixin received a system prompt.

[ Congratulations on obtaining the hidden series quest “River of Forgetfulness.” Congratulations on obtaining the Divine Soul Pearl X1. Congratulations on obtaining the Dragon Soul Guide Jade Pendant X1. Congratulations on obtaining the Phoenix Soul Guide Jade Pendant X1.]

Bai Lixin took the quest, opened the package and looked at the three items lying quietly at the back, a smile of understanding appearing on his face.

The “River of Forgetfulness” was a series of hidden quests that could be activated by the first team to clear the ten-man Demon Sect dungeon within 30 minutes.

Bai Lixin had never imagined that the team would work so well together this time, and that they would be able to complete it without any mistakes. That’s why the time was shortened to less than 30 minutes, giving him the opportunity to receive this mission.

In the original plot, this mission was received by Liang Xuan and Qiao Qun, who were also the original winners of the first armor.

In the original world, Liang Xuan was simply likened to the man who had saved this game. Almost all the adventures were encountered by him. The weapons he used were almost always of the highest quality, so it was as if the luck value of the whole game had been sucked up by him.

Was that really the case?

Bai Lixin snorted, a contemptuous look in his eyes.

Sooner or later, the truth would be revealed to the public, and by then everyone would naturally see where Liang Xuan’s good luck came from.

When that time comes, I am afraid that the wall will fall on everyone.

Bai Lixin received the quest and said in the chat room, “I just received a hidden quest thanks to everyone’s help. I feel like I’ve taken advantage of everyone, so I’ll create a group later and send a big red packet to each of you after I pull you all in, I hope you won’t mind. ”

Hearing Bai Lixin’s polite words, the crowd refused.

Originally, if not for Bai Lixin’s command, this raid for orange armor would have nothing to do with them.

One had to be content; they were just playing along to Bai Lixin’s rhythm and had only desperately fought for 25 minutes to obtain an orange weapon that could smash one’s head in the pie.

That hidden quest was well deserved. How could they still have the heart to accept Bai Lixin’s red packets.

Lao Er heard Bai Lixin’s words and hurriedly refused, “Xiao Lu, if it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have orange-grade equipment even if I played the game until it went out of business. And we didn’t do anything; we just followed your command. You’ve been studying the boss mechanics; how to win by surprise, and you even had a fever two days ago. No one on this team deserves this hidden quest more than you.”

It was rare that Lao Er didn’t make a fool of himself, and Bai Lixin laughed, but his hand didn’t stop moving as he created a group and quickly pulled everyone’s chat numbers into it.

After pulling the last one, Bai Lixin put his eyes back on the small group, but found that a red packet had already been sent out in the group.

He scrolled through the chat log and found that the person who sent the red packet was actually Pei Fuchen.

Bai Lixin smiled gently as he tapped his fingers on the keyboard: “Boss is awesome!”

Pei Fuchen’s chat room ID was the same as his game ID; both were “Battling Swordsman.”

He saw the Battling Swordsman type a sentence in the group about 3 seconds later: “Little Lu, you are still a student; keep the money. I will help you send red packets.

He replied, “Since the boss has said it, I will respectfully accept it! Boss, this hidden quest of mine requires two people to do it together. Even the equipment given by Elder Tianji comes in pairs, one for a dragon and one for a phoenix. I can only take one. The remaining one is needed for the other teammate. ”

“Boss, you operate well with good awareness, and you also helped me with the red packet. Why don’t you accompany me on this mission?”

After reading Bai Lixin’s words, Pei Fuchen only thought for three seconds before he replied: “Okay, no problem.”

Lao Er also typed in the chat room: “Damn, I’m just eating sesame seeds and losing watermelon! I also have good awareness, so tell me, how many red packets should I send? I’ll send them to you. Give me the spot!”

Bai Lixin snorted with laughter. This Lao Er was like a divine helper; it was like an assist every time he said something.

And sure enough, Pei Fuchen typed in the group, “Lao Er, come and duel. We are all men, and men have to use their strength to speak. ”

Lao Er:”… Boss, spare my life! Lao San, save me! ”

Lao San: “Heh!”

The chat group was having a good time, but in the end, Pei Fuchen did not duel with Lao because Bai Lixin had sent him an in-game party invitation.
He entered and found that, in addition to Bai Lu’s Dangling Song, his side account “Killing you just” was also listed.

Battling Swordsman: “Xiao Lu, why don’t you do the quest with your side account?”

Dangling Song: “Huh? Boss, how do you know this is my side account?”

Pei Fuchen: “…….”

Pei Fuchen frowned and looked down at his long, slender fingers. The fingers that pushed him into the pit!

He paused for a moment and typed a line with a serious face.

Battling Swordsman: “You told me that before.”

Dangling Song: “Huh? I did?”

Battling Swordsman: “You did. Think about it!” Well, that is probably true.

Dangling Song: “I don’t have a good memory, so I probably forgot after I did. ”

Pei Fuchen lightly breathed out a sigh of relief and continued tapping on his keyboard.

“How do I help you with your quest?”

” I can share the quest with you, and after sharing it, I can give you the Dragon soul attracting Jade Pendant. But before that, boss, let’s go to the chat room, I’m a bit tired of typing. ”

“Okay.”

Now that the people in the chat room were gradually dispersing, only a few were still discussing how the ten-man dungeon had been cleared in 25 minutes.

As soon as Pei Fuchen entered the chat room, he heard the sound effect of being pulled into a chat room with a “ding” and looked at his avatar that was in the chat room of “Swords and Songs”.

The name seemed to come from their two game IDs: “Battling Swordsman” + “Dangling Song.”

For some reason, when he saw this name, his heart suddenly seemed to fly up.

The small room with this name was like a nest for him and Bai Lixin, belonging only to the two of them and inaccessible to anyone else.

“Ahem ahem, can you hear me, Boss?” Bai Lixin asked, coughing twice to clear his throat.

Pei Fuchen put on his headphones and said, “I can hear you very clearly.”

“Oh that’s good. Boss, do you need to take a break at noon? Why don’t you take a nap first and we’ll talk later in the evening? ”

Hearing Bai Lixin’s concerned tone, Pei Fuchen’s heart warmed, and he replied warmly, “It’s okay, I slept early last night, so I’m not sleepy yet. Let’s do the mission first. ”

Bai Lixin said, “Okay, boss. In that case, you stay where you are for a second. I’ll come and give you the stuff first. Let’s see how many tasks we can accomplish today. I’m not in a hurry to finish this quest. Boss, are you there? ”

Pei Fuchen looked at the time in the bottom right corner. It was already 14:30, an hour and a half left before the 4 hour travel ban, and “I’m in even less of a hurry.”

Yangzhou and Chengdu are far apart in reality, but in the game, the sky’s the limit and it only takes one teleportation skill to reach them.

In the blink of an eye, Bai Lu, who was in Yangzhou, came to the swordsman. As soon as he arrived in front of him, he shared the quest with him.

Pei Fuchen took a closer look at the story before agreeing to accept the shared mission.

The moment he accepted the quest, a dialogue box popped up on the screen in front of Bai Lixin:
[Congratulations, player, you have completed Quest 1 of the “River of Forgetfulness” series of quests: Find your destined one.

 

You will be rewarded with the right to use the Dragon and Phoenix Soul Guiding Jade Pendant. Each player can only have one artifact from the Dragon and Phoenix Soul Guiding Jade Pendant. Which pendant does the player plan to give to the destined someone?]

Without even thinking about it, Bai Lixin chose the Dragon Soul-attracting Jade Pendant.

At the same time, a dialog box popped up in front of Pei Fuchen’s computer screen:

[Congratulations to the player who has obtained the Dragon Soul Guiding Jade Pendant X1. Please use this pendant wisely. A thousand pieces of gold are easy to buy, but fate is hard to find. Please cherish the person who has a shared destiny with you.]

“Finding the right person” was the first task in this series of quests, and it is only after finding a partner you can trust that you can start this quest.

The divine soul pearl of Old Man Tianji will guide Bai Lixin to find the entrance of the River of Forgetfulness, the river of the underworld.

Legend has it that under the Yellow Spring, the River of Forgetfulness joins the Underworld and the Human Realm, and that only through the River of Forgetfulness can one enter the Underworld, the land of ghosts.

What Bai Lixin and Pei Fuchen had to do next was to follow the quest guide and eventually find the entrance to the Underworld.

The difficulty of most of the hidden tasks was not low, and after doing the quest for more than an hour, they had only completed two.

Seeing that the quest progress bar showed a mere 5% progress, the two of them were in no hurry.

The advantage of this hidden mission was that there was no time limit, so Bai Lixin and Pei Fuchen did not have to complete it within a week or a month. So the two of them had plenty of time to get along and complete the mission.

In the evening, Bai Lixin had to play in the arena to brush up the score. Pei Fuchen thought about it and discussed it with Bai Lixin not to play in the arena for the time being. So he could finish the quest and then go offline.

Time flew by, but in the blink of an eye, another two weeks had passed.

During this half month, Pei Fuchen and Bai Lixin were working on their quest unhurriedly, and before they knew it, their quest progress had gone from 5% to 60%.

Their team was still in second place in the arena, but the gap between their points and that of the Everwins team had been getting smaller and smaller.

Pei Fuchen has been bound to Bai Lixin for the past half a month, and the two of them have been fighting monsters together, getting quests together, and riding horses together, just like an intimate couple.

Pei Fuchen’s mood towards this game has gradually changed to one of anticipation.

He looked forward to every time he went online and every time he teamed up with Bai Lixin.

When he received the review notice, Pei Fuchen was depressed when he thought that he would not be able to hang out with Bai Lu in the next two days.

He was an adult, but a rather intelligent one. If, at this point in time, he still did not understand his feelings for Bai Lu, he would really be a fool.

The first thing that he felt in his heart after he was sure that he liked Bai Lu was not pleasure, but worry.

If he were a healthy person, free from illness and disease, he would have rushed over and told him that he loved him at the first opportunity.

But he was not.

Pei Fuchen cupped the notice in his hand, slightly bowing his head and shading his eyes with his eyelashes.

He was a terminally ill man whom the god of death could visit at any time.

He had a ticking time bomb in his head. His body was his, but it was not entirely his.

Why add to the worries and sorrows of someone you love when you know you can’t give them security?

He loved Bai Lu, but he dared not bet his life against Bai Lu’s future life.

Bai Lu was still a university student. He still had a great future ahead of him. It could not be ruined because of his own selfishness.

Pei Fuchen only felt like his heart was frying in a pot, provoking him to pursue Bai Lu.

No, he would not do that. Since he could not give Bai Lu happiness, he would not chase him.

But to leave Bai Lu completely?

He couldn’t do that. He had never fallen in love with anyone. Now that he had, he even felt that Bai Lu was the one he had been waiting for.

He would neither seek out Bai Lu in reality nor keep his distance from him in the game.

In his opinion, this kind of detached but tacit relationship was the safest option.

Pei Fuchen thought a lot about things, but when he saw the familiar yet unfamiliar figure in the hospital the next day, all his determination was lost.

When he saw Bai Lu, dressed in the light green uniform for volunteers, walking towards him with a smile on his face, Pei Fuchen’s heart raced, and a voice in his heart hissed loudly: “Go up to him, embrace him, take him into your arms fiercely, hold his lips and taste the sweetness in his mouth. Rub his ass hard, feel his sexy curves! ”

Pei Fuchen clenched his fists and stiffly pulled a smile across his face as he tried his best to suppress his instincts, “Hi, what a coincidence.”

Bai Lixin tilted his head to look at Pei Fuchen, who was a head taller than him, and smiled, “I just applied for a volunteer position at this hospital some time ago, and it just happened to be my turn to help out recently. Are you here for a review? ”

Tell him you like him!

“Yes, I come for a review every two weeks. The doctor had originally decided to use chemotherapy on me at my last review, but the last test suddenly revealed that the tumor was showing signs of getting better, so he gave up on the chemotherapy and continued with the medication. ” Suppressing his internal hiss, Pei Fuchen tried his best to maintain a gentle smile.

Bai Lixin’s eyes lit up at his words, reaching out to grab Pei Fuchen’s wrist and saying, “Really? That’s great! Congratulations! I told you that you would get better and better. Trust me! ”

With his hand holding Pei Fuchen’s wrist, Bai Lixin told S419M, [Invoke dimensional points to weaken Pei Fuchen’s tumor]
[As ordered, Lord Host. Ding! Consuming

1000 points, the tumor in Pei Fu Chen’s brain has shrunk.]

Grab his hand back! Pull him into your arms, desperately caress and ravage him!

“Thank you for your auspicious words. But it was only after that encounter with you that my tumor began to improve, so maybe you’re a real blessing to me. ” Pei Fuchen said, as he put his hands in his trouser pockets to hide their trembling.

“Haha, is that so?!” Bai Lixin clapped his hands, “In that case, how about this? You go for the check-up, and if the tumor has gotten better again, then I will definitely be your lucky star. If so, then you must treat me to lunch!”

Pei Fuchen nodded, “Naturally, what’s your… um, where will you be later? I’ll treat you to lunch, but since we’re in the hospital, there’s nothing good to eat. We might have to go to the hospital canteen and eat something casual.” Pei Fuchen was just about to ask for the phone number when he suddenly remembered that he and Bai Lixin had chatted with each other on the phone and stopped himself.

Bai Lixin pretended not to notice and smiled, “I will be in the volunteer lounge on the third floor. If you need anything, just come to me. I’m here to help out. I’m familiar with some things. ”

The two talked for a while longer, and Uncle Xu kept urging that the inspection time was approaching, before Pei Fuchen reluctantly left.

The examination lasted from 8:30 am to 11:30 pm, and the results were unexpectedly good, once again surprising the attending doctor.

The tumor had shrunk a little more! It was only a little, but it was a miracle!

A tumor not spreading is a victory, but Pei Fuchen’s tumor had not only stopped spreading, but there were also signs of cells dying and the tumor slowly shrinking back.

A miracle! A miracle of life!

The attending doctor’s glasses almost fell off as he looked at the slightly pale Pei Fuchen up and down: “Mr. Pei, have you taken anything else these days, apart from the medicine I have prescribed for you?”

Pei Fuchen shook his head, “Not really.”

Hearing this, the doctor was somewhat unconvinced, and he asked again, “Then Mr. Pei, have you encountered anything magical these days?”

Hearing the doctor’s words, Pei Fuchen gently hooked the corners of his mouth, his eyes slightly misty, as if he had fallen into some sweet memories, “Yes, I met someone.”

Seeing his expression, the doctor immediately laughed, feeling that Mr. Pei had met someone he liked.

For now, knowing that he could not get an answer from Pei Fuchen for the time being, the doctor sighed.

Tumors have always been a desperate disease, and once one is diagnosed with one, it is equivalent to being given a death sentence.

Medical technology was advancing rapidly worldwide, but there was still nothing that could be done about tumors.

He wanted to know the reason for Pei Fuchen’s improvement so as to make a small contribution to the cause of curing tumors. But now, it seems that Pei Fuchen is just a special case. Perhaps he is really not meant to die!

Once again, his parents were overjoyed to receive news that their son had improved, but they were unable to get away from the company. They only wished they could fly to their son’s side with wings on their bodies.

Finally done with the morning’s examinations, Pei Fuchen looked at the time. It was almost 12 o’clock and he interrupted the doctor in a slight hurry: “Doctor Huang, if there is nothing else, I will go out for a while. Don’t worry, I won’t go out of the hospital. I have a lunch appointment with someone at the canteen. You don’t mind, right? ” He said and pointed to the watch on his wrist.

Only then did the doctor realize that it was almost 12 o’clock. He smiled awkwardly and reluctantly sent Pei Fu Chen off.
