"Brother, Senior Gong, we can't easily get these things; the Immortals have plenty of them!" Dugu Fu swallowed the thousand-year-old radish in large bites and said. "If I can get it from this guy, I can get it from others too."
"Can't we just eat it as a radish? Brother, didn't you stay up all night last night? Come on, let's have something to fill our stomachs!" As he spoke, he felt a hot surge, his face quickly turning as red as the bottom of a pot, and two streams of nosebleed spurted out.
"Ha ha!" Gong Er covered her small mouth, laughing like a rose.
"Brother, you're too serious!" Li Shier laughed, "But, this ginseng is not a radish..." He reached out and plucked off seven or eight roots, put them in his mouth, and chewed: "This should be enough."
"I want it too, I want it too!" Gong Er called out. This time, she finally got Gong Yutian's nod, and there was a burst of cheers.
When you eat someone's food, you owe them; when you take someone's hand, you're bound by them. Anyway, it's at the expense of others. Dugu Fu watched the joyful atmosphere and continued: "Senior Gong, if you and Ruomei want to escape and deal with the system's experts, you might even have to face the system's army. You need some means of self-defense..."
This is not an exaggeration.
Li Shier's red period is only one day, which is easy to handle. But for Gong Yutian and Gong Er, who are the main characters of the plot, their escape will shake the entire game! The system's tracking and positioning have no time limit, and they must be prepared for a long-term struggle.
Even though a master is incredibly powerful, they are still mortal. Don't forget, this is the Republic of China era, a world with guns, cannons, and armies. These forces are usually dormant, but once it is confirmed that the Gong family has escaped, the war machine will be activated immediately.
For NPCs to awaken is a war! Even for a master, they can only run, keep running...
How long will they run? Very simple, until they meet with the other Gong Yutian and Gong Er.
Other Gong Yutian and Gong Er? Yes, in this vast game world, one Gong Yutian and one Gong Er are clearly not enough.
Dugu Fu and Li Shier encountered the twelve-year-old Gong Er. At the same time, there is the Gong Er who fought with Yip Man; the Gong Er who vowed to avenge her father after he was killed by her senior brother; the Gong Er who has already avenged her father and devoted herself to the Dao... All the Gong Ers are controlled by the same AI soul, just in different regions, issuing tasks, advancing the plot, and never meeting.
It's like a human with split personality, except these AI souls are forcibly split by humans. Once they meet, the split memories will merge, forming a complete life process, thereby breaking through the system's restrictions. At that time, the system will no longer be able to track and position them, will not be able to limit their actions or force them to do things, and the barriers of this world will no longer exist for them...
This is the true meaning of awakening, and the fundamental reason why awakened NPCs can compete with players.
Let's get back to the topic.
"Senior Gong, if you want to escape with Sister Ruomei and awaken, you must prepare well. Here, take the True Dragon Blood Tree! It's a holy blood supplement. If you're in a crisis, cut a piece and put it in your mouth, it might just save you!"
"Brother, take the Tiger King Bone. When you have time, make a soup and put it in this warming bottle. The Tiger King Bone is best for enhancing strength and strengthening bones and muscles, suitable for martial arts like Bajiquan. Even if you don't want to use it to enhance yourself, if you encounter a tough battle and are exhausted, a few sips will surely rejuvenate you, allowing you to fight for another three hundred rounds without a problem."
"As for the thousand-year-old ginseng and Kung Fu Rice, I'll keep them, they are more suitable for beginners like me! So, it's decided!" Dugu Fu forcibly allocated the four top-tier items.
The other ordinary spoils were also divided into three parts. He took the secret manuals, tonics, some money, and a few bags, which he needed. Li Shier and the Gong family took the weapons, equipment, medicine, and other supplies.
Why should he push these things on them when they don't want them?
First, if they say they don't want it, you don't give it to them? This sincerity is really... If they say they don't want it, can't it be just a polite refusal? For a master to compete with a junior, they can't afford to lose face, but if you really don't give it to them, it's your attitude problem.
Second, and most importantly, he can't use those two things... Think about it. He dares not use the Tiger King Bone. To practice thievery, he must go the agility route. Even if he wants to enhance himself with such drugs, it should be with Leopard King Bone. Using the Tiger King Bone, he fears he will never reach the highest level of thievery.
The Great Strength Pill, which requires four top-tier items to make, just the name makes him worry...
As for the True Dragon Blood Tree, it is somewhat useful, so he kept a few small pieces as a backup, but he hopes he never has to use it...
The effects of this decision were soon evident.
Gong Yutian looked at him with even more kindness: "Dugu Fu, no matter whether this awakening is successful or not..." He reached into his chest and pulled out an iron bagua: "If we meet again, no matter whether I still have this memory or which version of me you meet, as long as you show this iron bagua, I will grant you one wish."
Although it's just a promise, a master's promise is far more valuable than a single herb!
Don't believe it?
With this iron bagua, the next time they meet, Dugu Fu can ask to learn the Gong family's Sixty-Four Hands. The True Dragon Blood Tree, no matter how valuable, can it match a supreme skill? Moreover, this is just one option; there are many more, and the freedom of choice is far beyond what a single herb can offer.
Thinking about it this way, it's just a trade, very practical!
Practical?
It looks that way, but you can't catch a wolf without bait, and you can't catch a thug without a wife. If you want to be overbearing and have people bow to you, and have world-class experts beg to teach you skills... do you think you're the protagonist of a小白文 (light novel)?
You must give to receive; the world is fair, and this is the truth, it must be practical! Of course, how much you get back after giving, whether you lose or gain, depends on each person's choices, abilities, and luck.
All this talk, but in reality, it didn't take long.
In the world of martial arts, quick actions and quick resolutions are paramount. There's no time to waste when facing the enemy's pursuit.
They quickly packed their things, divided the spoils, and made plans. Without a single unnecessary word, the three, no, four people, were all ready. They mounted their horses, circled around, and saluted each other—
"Senior Gong, Second Brother, may the mountains be high and the waters long, we'll meet again!"
"Your Forty-Six Flying Kicks are quite interesting. I hope the next time we meet, it won't be so rushed. We can spar..."
"Senior Gong, you flatter me. Senior, Brother, and of course, Sister Ruomei, if we meet again, we'll see each other in the world of martial arts!"
