Chapter 72
Chapter 72
At this moment, a brave and strong man named Hou Yi appeared. He chased after the golden crows with his divine bow, shooting them down one by one. He left one alive so that it could continue to provide light and heat for humankind.
The magnificently adorned goddess, the Queen Mother of the West, grateful for Hou Yi's immense contributions to humanity, bestowed upon him an elixir of immortality. Hou Yi returned home with the elixir, only to find his wife was none other than Chang'e!
The player was disillusioned: "Ahhh, my goddess is already taken! Ahhhhh!"
Disillusionment!
Although this wild and handsome guy is very good-looking, how can a goddess have a husband!
"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"
After a moment of intense emotion, he calmed down, repeatedly telling himself, "Handsome guy with a beautiful woman, okay, handsome guy with a beautiful woman, okay..."
She was completely pulled out of character, and her emotions vanished.
Keep watching.
Chang'e put away the elixir. On the same day, Hou Yi went out hunting, and a man named Pang Meng came to Hou Yi's house.
This person, supposedly Hou Yi's apprentice, was delivering something, but subtly inquired about the elixir of immortality. When Chang'e brushed him off, he became enraged and threatened to search and steal it, infuriating the player!
She stood in front of Chang'e, trying to help, and even took out her sword to keep hitting the man. But her actions were useless; the two of them couldn't see her at all, and could only watch as the man passed right through her body and rushed straight to Chang'e, knocking the goddess to the ground and starting to ransack her.
Left with no other choice, Chang'e got up, ran to the medicine cabinet, grabbed the elixir, and ran outside.
The scene shifts to the courtyard, where an osmanthus tree looks very similar to the mutated osmanthus tree she planted.
Chang'e was injured and weak, and could not outrun Pang Meng. In her desperation, she stuffed the elixir into her mouth.
Suddenly, she radiated a dazzling light, and in the blink of an eye, her simple peasant clothes transformed into luxurious fairy robes, which then floated towards the moon.
Hou Yi, returning home from hunting, witnessed his wife flying away and chased after her, screaming heartbreakingly.
The scene was extremely sad, and Chang'e reached out to come down, her eyes filled with tears.
"Waaaaah, goddess, god, don't cry! Which jerk wants to break up our love! Ahhh!"
"Designer, you're so mean! How could you make my goddess cry? Waaaaah~"
The player cried as he ran after Hou Yi, but his short legs couldn't keep up, and he lost him in just a few steps.
She ran back and punched and kicked the dazed bad guy, but he didn't seem to feel anything at all.
"Aaaaaah, you bad guy! Designer, why did you make my goddess suffer like this!"
"Ahhh, goddess, don't cry, waaaaah! I'll plant an osmanthus tree for you and help you fight off the bad guys!"
As he spoke, he struck Pang Meng several more times!
The neighbors ran out and watched Chang'e fly to the moon, wiping away tears.
At the very end of the animation: on the day Chang'e flew away, the moon was full and at its zenith, around the fifteenth of August. Therefore, every year around this time, people sit under the cassia tree, eating mooncakes and gazing at the moon, remembering Chang'e.
Later, people fixed the day to commemorate her on the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month. The fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month gradually evolved into the Mid-Autumn Festival, an important festival in China, where families gather together for a reunion. Some travelers far from home often gaze at the moon and think of their loved ones, reciting sorrowful poems in solitude.
The animation ends here, and the instance returns, which is the courtyard where Chang'e flew away.
The player went inside, and everything was in good condition. There was a silver lucky bag on the living room table. She went over and picked it up; inside were several laurel seeds.
She shared her amazing experience in the chat channel: "I'm so sad for the goddess, it turns out she didn't want to go to the moon, sob sob. Video."
Players were very excited after watching her video; some even unlocked the goddess's adventure!
"Ahhh, there are glass shards inside! This is another example of a design that's just plain inhuman."
"It wasn't shards of glass, it was a knife aimed at me, waaaaah! My goddess is already taken, waaaaah~"
"Ahhh, no wonder he's the goddess's husband, those muscles, that tan, so domineering~"
"Waaaaah, designer, you actually designed a villain who can't be hit! You trash designer, come out and fight!"
"A miraculous encounter with Chang'e? OP, that's amazing! How did you do it?"
After carefully studying this player's video and learning the method, many people started planting osmanthus trees, but not all osmanthus trees can mutate into the Encounter Osmanthus Tree.
Players exploring the wilderness unlocked the Chang'e adventure. Chang'e was gathering herbs on Zhilan Mountain; helping her gather herbs would reward players with laurel seeds.
However, there were only one, not ten.
While story-driven players are engrossed in the Chang'e adventure, battle-obsessed players have also unlocked the new guardian deity, Erlang Shen!
The players actually ganged up on one of the heavenly soldiers, split into teams, and cooperated to kill him using siege weapons.
When the heavenly soldier died, there was a thunderstorm with lightning and a raging storm. The guild's doors and windows rattled loudly in the wind. If it weren't for the official information, the invincible players would have suspected that the guild was going to be demolished, and would have blamed them for it.
Amidst the lightning and thunder, a large black dog leaped out, looking majestic.
The players screamed their lungs out, their mouths agape from the wind.
"Ahhhhh, the Dharma Protector is coming! The new Dharma Protector is coming!"
"Ahhhhh, stop screaming for the Dharma protectors, scream for us first! We're going to die, ahhhhh!"
"Wow, that's incredible! This is seriously amazing!!"
"Aaaaaah, I'm dead again."
Many players were struck by lightning and died, but quickly returned.
Many players didn't remember the area code and quickly asked in the chat channel.
After this was announced, the players knew that a new guardian had appeared in that area, and they all rushed to join it.
Many players were stuck outside and couldn't get in, while those inside tried to hide inside the guild after learning about the situation, trying their best not to get caught up in it.
Because too many innocent players died, the White Impermanence also appeared.
Erlang Shen had not yet appeared, and many players thought that the commotion was caused by Bai Wuchang, which left them confused.
"Isn't it said that killing heavenly soldiers would attract the guardians of heaven? Why is Bai Wuchang here?"
"The White Impermanence made such a grand entrance! No wonder he's an NPC you can't challenge!"
At this moment, Bai Wuchang slowly walked over, cupped his fists slightly towards the dark clouds, and said, "Erlang Shenjun, how have you been?"
Erlang Shen descended on a white cloud, his most striking features being his enormous cloak and armor, as well as a gleaming three-pointed double-edged sword.
“A group of bandits killed my general. I have come to apprehend them. I hope that the White Impermanence will forgive any innocent people who may have been harmed.”
"Of course, of course, I'll make this occasion for you. Divine Lord, please unleash your full power."
After saying this, Bai Wuchang came to the main hall of the guild, stood quietly with his arms crossed, and held a mourning stick in his bosom.
At this moment, the raging wind, rain, and lightning ignored the players who hadn't attacked the heavenly soldiers. They were just a little uncomfortable from the oppressive force, but they felt comfortable when they came to the side of Bai Wuchang, though they were a little chilly.
So many players gathered around Bai Wuchang, eager to cling to him, but a little afraid, wanting to steal but not daring to.
"So handsome~"
"Even with a pale face, he's still so handsome~ I'm only a fist's distance away from my idol!"
"White Impermanence, do you have any missions available?"
The White Impermanence said with a smile, "I see you are a kind person, so I will give you a little trinket."
He then handed the player who had asked the question a red string for the Dragon Boat Festival, saying, "This string is the same one that Brother Fan gave me for the Dragon Boat Festival years ago. I made it myself. It may bring you some good luck."
The player was surprised to actually receive something and was a little bewildered holding it.
Players nearby, hearing there was something good to be had, rushed over, all asking the same question, but Bai Wuchang ignored them completely. He focused intently on the battle in the square, with countless players shouting encouragement on one side and the sounds of fighting on the other, all against a backdrop of lightning, thunder, and howling winds.
The players are too cunning!
There were over two thousand players, divided into more than a dozen teams. Those who died would return and rejoin the battle. Erlang Shen felt a sense of helplessness, as if the battle was endless and invincible.
What's even more impressive is that these players have excellent logistical support, using birds to carry all sorts of large rocks, weapons, and wood down on them.
Erlang laughed arrogantly, "I'm giving you some face because it's your first offense. But since you're being so unreasonable, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
After saying that, he glanced at Bai Wuchang, who nodded slightly, and then he unleashed his ultimate attack.
The third eye opened, and bursts of light, like laser particle beams, swept around 360 degrees.
Laser particle beams cannot last that long.
After the barrage was completed, he cast a Soul-Stabilizing Spell, and the dead players floated in the air, all of whom were then collected into his sleeve.
After the battle, countless players screamed with excitement at his handsomeness, bravery, and martial arts skills!
"Thank you for your help, White Impermanence. Until we meet again."
White Impermanence returned the greeting and said, "Until we meet again."
Then Bai Wuchang disappeared from the spot, the players beside him clinging tightly to his clothes, but ultimately failing. The clothes transformed into white spider lilies and vanished.
"Aaaaaah, my White Impermanence!"
"Ahhhh, my Erlang Shen!"
"Aaaaaah, my celestial hound!"
........
After the battle ended, countless players flooded into the guild area, drooling over the four guardians.
Do you think there's any chance they could become my husbands like flower fairies one day?
"I don't know, why don't we leave a message on the account together! I refuse to believe that the designer won't grant the wishes of over a billion people!"
"Okay, let's do it now."
"Wait a minute, let's form a team first to prevent players from disrupting the queue. We also need to keep things organized during the promotion..."
The two players were discussing quietly when another player overheard them and joined in. Within an hour, the group had grown to over 40,000 people.
At the end of the month, on the day the event settled, 99% of Qingfengyi's players went to both accounts to post the same message:
"We want the phoenix, or we'll give you four guardians!"
"We want the phoenix, or we'll give you four guardians!"
"We want the phoenix, or we'll give you four guardians!"
.......
Not a single line disrupted the queue; the data was processed very neatly.
Not only did they spam the two accounts, but they also spammed the chat channels in the Qingfengyi game and swept through all the videos posted by the streamers.
