Chapter 69 The cave monster is so powerful!
Gu Rong's eyes were filled with mosaics. He stopped looking when he couldn't see anything and quickly shifted his attention.
There were many people at the scene, not only locals from Gujia Village, but also more than a dozen people from other places who had just arrived.
Six of the out-of-towners are gamers.
Gu Rong's eyes lit up when he saw Zhuang Yu and Shen Hanxiao in the crowd. Then he saw Lin Xuezhuo behind them, who was wearing a black windbreaker and a baseball cap.
Big brother! Little brother! Doctor uncle!
Gu Rong's expression was full of excitement. Without thinking, he immediately wanted to run towards the three people.
Old Man Gu grabbed his little fleshy hand and, seeing him trying to run again, pulled him back: "Don't run! You don't even know who you are, and you're just running forward! Follow me closely!"
Zhuang Yu, Chen Hanxiao, and Lin Xuezhou were all looking at Gu Rong.
Seeing that he wanted to run over here, Zhuang Yu immediately secretly gestured to him, telling him not to go over, and Shen Hanxiao also shook his head at him.
The two of them had taught Gu Rong how to use hand gestures before, and he had learned a little bit, which came in handy at this time.
When they first entered the dungeon, in the eyes of these NPCs, it was impossible for them, outsiders, to know a local child, so they could only pretend not to know them.
When Lin Xuezhu saw the two of them gesturing, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Gu Rong was indeed a kid who had learned hand gestures systematically. He understood Zhuang Yu's gestures as soon as he saw them. He was no longer in a hurry to run towards the three people and let the old man Gu lead him.
He is now a little kid in Gujia Village and doesn’t know the older brothers, younger brothers, and doctor uncles yet!
Gu Rong was the only cub at the scene. He was tiny, but extremely good-looking, delicate and adorable, with a skin as white as jade. Immediately, everyone's attention was focused on this little cub.
In addition to Zhuang Yu and the other two, the other three players also looked at the little NPC.
This was the first time they entered the same dungeon with this little NPC. They had only heard about it before, but now that they saw it with their own eyes, they couldn't help but take a few more glances.
The kid was wearing a green cardigan sweater. The sweater was very thick and pilled. I don’t know if the buttons were too tight or what, but it made the kid’s neck look even shorter, his upper body was round, and his two short legs were less than half a foot long.
All the players were so touched by the cuteness that they were excited inside, but they pretended to be calm on the surface.
The little top star in the forum is really as worthy of his reputation. Just looking at him, he is so adorable.
At the same time, aunts flocked into the live broadcast rooms of many players, throwing barrages of rewards at the players without asking for money.
[Ahhhhhh, the cub is here, everyone get out of the way!!!]
[Auntie is here, and I finally see my baby, my beloved baby! [Reward points]]
[Watching the baby from six camera angles is awesome! [Reward points]]
[Luckily, Luckily, Big Brother, Little Brother, and Big Brother Lin are all here, so I don't have to go through the dungeon alone!]
[Is the sweater that the baby is wearing too thick? The whole baby looks more like a small gas tank, hahaha! [Reward points]]
[Ah~~ Can you give me a doll? I really want to dress the doll up in cute clothes every day. If I can't raise the doll, I'll just have a baby like it!]
…
The aunts were running around in the live broadcast rooms of the six players, but they were more concentrated in the live broadcast rooms of Lin Xuezhuo, Zhuang Yuchen and Hanxiao.
Lin Xuezhou has the most fans and receives the most tips. Besides Zaizai's aunt, there are more fans of his own.
Because Lin Xuezhuo and Gu Rong always work together in perfect harmony, many viewers share the same concerns and are fans of both of them.
Although Gu Rong pretended not to know the three people, he couldn't help but feel happy when he saw them.
At this time, Old Man Gu also led him to the bonfire and mixed in the crowd.
The head of Gujia Village was a middle-aged man in his forties, tall and straight, neither fat nor thin. He smiled and stroked Gu Rong's furry little head, saying, "It's lively tonight. It's good to bring the children out for some fresh air."
Village Chief Gu also had a tumor on his head, but it was much smaller and could be barely covered by his hair.
The temperature was low at night, but the bonfire burned brightly, bringing a touch of warmth.
Everyone sat down around the campfire.
Gu Rong and Old Man Gu sat together, farther away from Zhuang Yu and the other two.
Gu Rong couldn't see it, but all the players could see that every person in Gu Village had a tumor on their head.
Everyone had different thoughts and tried their best to suppress the discomfort in their hearts.
Village chief Gu had people distribute food and drinks. Gu Rong, who was young, got a bottle of hot milk.
Gu Rong held the milk and drank it, but his big eyes were fixed on the uncle who was roasting the lamb leg.
Seeing Gu Rong's gaze, Lin Xuezhuo and the other two were not surprised, but they couldn't help but laugh.
The most important thing in the world is eating, and Gu Rong implemented this principle thoroughly.
At this time, Gu Rong's attention was attracted by another middle-aged uncle.
The other person was also roasting something in his hand, but it was not a leg of lamb, but a bunch of worm-like creatures.
He held dozens of skewers of roasted insects and roasted them over the fire, sprinkling them with cumin powder from time to time.
Not only Gu Rong noticed the middle-aged man, but others soon noticed him as well.
The six players also looked at the middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man had rough blond hair and looked like a foreigner. He was short and fat with a round face. His right eye was very strange. There was no eyeball in the eye socket, but a mass of milky white gelatinous substance. The gelatinous substance rotated from time to time, proving that it was alive.
Not to mention the players, even the locals of Gujia Village looked at the man with horror.
The middle-aged man was also from another place, but this was not his first time to come to Gujia Village, but his second time.
His name is Jones.
Jones ignored everyone's gaze and concentrated on grilling his insect skewers. Suddenly, he raised his head and grinned in the direction of Gu Rong.
Any other kid would be scared to tears by such a ferocious expression, but Gu Rong just tilted his little head and looked at the other person with a silly and cute face, without dodging or avoiding, and not afraid at all.
Jones's smile froze: "..."
Jones quickly looked away.
Seeing everyone looking at him, he raised his hand and touched his right eye, sneering, "You must want to know what's wrong with my eye? This is a souvenir I left behind when I last entered the cave. Village Chief Gu should still remember it."
Village Chief Gu kept smiling and nodded.
Jones: "This is also something I want to remind everyone. Tomorrow we're going to the cave, and there are these unknown insects everywhere. If you're not careful, they'll attach themselves to you. If you're lucky, they'll just be parasitic on you, and the two can coexist. If you're unlucky, they might eat you up and die miserably."
According to Jones's recollection, the first time he went down into the cave, his companion was parasitized by a milky white worm in the cave, which ate his body empty. When he discovered it, his companion was already dead.
He picked up the insect with tweezers and put it in front of his eyes to observe carefully. Suddenly, the larva moved and pierced his right eye.
"It was a tiny larva at the time, about the size of a peanut, but now it's grown enormous. It's taken over not only my entire right eye, but also half of my skull."
Jones patted the right side of his head. It felt soft, as if something soft was wrapped inside.
"He's doing really well in here, and we're getting along really well."
Hearing this, the bug in Jones's eyes moved slightly.
When everyone saw this scene, they couldn't help but feel creepy and their scalps tingled. They didn't know whether they felt more disgusted or frightened, and they felt very uncomfortable.
Jones picked up the roasted insect skewer and brought it to his mouth. As he chewed and swallowed it, he said, "I communicate with it every night before going to bed. We are like old friends, we understand each other well and coexist in harmony."
"I told it that when it grows up, it should arch its neck and not press on the cervical spine, as that would make me uncomfortable. It also needs to leave some brain space for me and not eat it all."
There was a swelling under the skin of his neck, as if something was breathing.
Jones spoke in a nonchalant tone, as if he was used to it. He had already finished several skewers of roasted insects. Finally, he said, "Oh, yes, it's the kind of insect I have in my hand."
Everyone: “…”
Okay, very good, you are good at disgusting people.
Except for Gu Rong, everyone else lost their appetite and couldn't eat anything. It was a blessing that they didn't vomit.
Even the delicious roasted lamb leg was not tasted by the other players, but Gu Rong was not affected at all and ate a large piece.
Seeing that the kid was not afraid at all, Jones took the grilled insect skewers in his hand and asked him if he wanted to try two.
Seeing Jones eating with such relish, Gu Rong was eager to try it and even wanted to take it with her little hands.
Zhuang Yuchen smiled in shock, and cried out in his heart that this was impossible!
Lin Xuezhuo's face froze.
This kid is really ignorant and fearless.
006 and the live broadcast room also broke out in cold sweats.
006: [Little host, this is not edible! ]
Fortunately, Old Man Gu still had some common sense. He pulled Gu Rong's little hand and said, "If you eat that bug, you will be parasitized by it and eat the lamb leg!"
He was given a piece of roast lamb.
Gu Rong didn't really want to eat the grilled insect skewers, he was just curious. Now that he had the roasted lamb leg in his hand, he no longer thought about the grilled insect skewers.
Zhuang Yu and the other two breathed a sigh of relief, and 006 and the live broadcast room also breathed a sigh of relief.
006 said: [Little host, Jones just said that there are a lot of these bugs in the cave. They look scary. If you see them, don't grab them and put them in your mouth. They are not delicious!]
Gu Rong could only see mosaics. The roasted insect looked like a small, golden strip, not scary at all, but he still said obediently, "Oh."
Gu Rong was puzzled again: "But I'm not going to the cave, so how can I catch insects?"
Unexpectedly, just as he finished saying this, he heard a "ding" sound, the system prompt sound.
[Please ask NPC Zaizai to accept the second task.]
【Mission: Enter the cave.】
[Successful reward: 100,000 points and a set of children's protective clothing.]
[Failure penalty: Identity card invalidated.]
This copy is called "Cave Monster". The plot mainly takes place in the cave. If Gu Rong cannot enter the cave, he will be separated from the main plot and his identity card will naturally be invalid.
If the identity card is invalid, you will exit the game.
006 emphasized again: [Little host, never put insects in your mouth!]
Gu Rong: [Oh.]
006 saw him listening in and out of his ears, sighed, and couldn't help but worry.
*
The next day soon arrived.
Old Man Gu said that he would take tourists down the cave. Before leaving, he planned to wrap Gu Rong in a quilt as usual to prevent him from running around.
Anyway, after sending the tourists to the entrance of the cave, he will come back and will not follow them into the cave.
When Old Man Gu woke up, Gu Rong also woke up.
Seeing that Old Man Gu was still trying to wrap him up with the quilt, he immediately got up from the bed and said crisply, "Rongrong, go!"
Old Man Gu was stunned for a moment and said, "Where are you going? Stay home and sleep well."
Gu Rong leaned on his chubby waist and insisted, "Rongrong, let's go to the cave too. Let's go with Grandpa Gu!"
Old Man Gu looked at the cub in front of him. This time he did not refuse outright, but showed hesitation.
I have to say, ever since this little fool learned to call him grandpa, Old Man Gu's attitude towards Gu Rong has improved many times.
Gu Rong was the best at reading people's expressions. When she saw that Old Man Gu was moved, she immediately started to act cute and pitiful, clasping her hands together and bowing to Old Man Gu like a lucky cat: "Grandpa Gu, please! Rong Rong will go too!"
Old Man Gu: “…”
Who can resist such a soft and cute little baby acting cute?
Old Man Gu frowned and snorted coldly, "Send them to the cave entrance and come back. You little brat, why are you joining in the fun?"
While saying this, he dug out a small sweater, put it on the kid, and also put a woolen hat on Gu Rong.
