Chapter 216 Not a big problem
Late at night, three people were sitting on the rooftop, bored.
Time passed by minute by minute.
Li Qing looked down at his cell phone and found that it was already past midnight, and there was no response from Huangfu Miaomiao, so he immediately got up.
"Let's go to the next place," he said.
Huangfu Miaomiao stood up lazily, "Why don't we give Feng Ling a call? It's been four hours, and he should have finished eating no matter what..."
Li Qing knows a little more about the ways of the world than she does. "They will definitely reminisce about the past during dinner. It's rare for her to meet with her friends, so I think she shouldn't call."
Huangfu Miaomiao squinted at him, "Humph, it seems like you are very thoughtful."
Li Qing replied in a serious tone: "Since I have decided to cooperate with Feng Ling, I will do my best to shoulder my share of responsibilities. We are a team now and should divide the work and cooperate with each other. We can't put all the pressure on Feng Ling alone."
"What do you mean?" Huangfu Miaomiao was very dissatisfied, "Do you think I'm a burden to Feng Ling?"
Li Qing frowned and looked at Huangfu Miaomiao, "Of course that's not what I meant. You also contributed to the search for the maze. Without players accepting the maze mission, humans cannot open the maze in the normal way."
Huangfu Miaomiao held the bird cage in one hand and put one hand on her waist, and said very unhappily: "I want to call Feng Ling, not because I want to put all the things on her, but because I care about her. I haven't contacted her for four hours. Aren't you worried that something happened to her?"
Li Qing's mouth twitched slightly, thinking that it would be difficult to find someone in this city who could pose a threat to Feng Ling. If he had to find one, it would probably be Ye Zheng.
"There are 24 hours in a day, but we haven't been in touch for only 4 hours..." Li Qing murmured in a low voice, "Being together every moment is suffocating in itself."
Huangfu Miaomiao was so angry that she stood on the roof and shouted, "Feng Ling won't feel suffocated! You don't know her! You are talking nonsense!"
Xu Yiming saw that the two were about to quarrel. Although he felt embarrassed, he still stepped in without hesitation and advised them: "Well... let's go to the next location as soon as possible? If we find the entrance to the maze sooner, Feng Ling will be happy when he comes back."
Huangfu Miaomiao had an indignant look on her face. She suppressed her anger and walked downstairs, feeling very aggrieved.
She thought: I just wanted to call Feng Ling, why do you say I put pressure on Feng Ling? Why do you say I suffocated Feng Ling? Why, why? Why? It was obviously me who knew Feng Ling first!
The administrators were always high and mighty, and lower-class people like her had no chance to interact with them, so when she first met Li Qing, she just felt curious.
But who would have known that this Taoist priest had been following her and Feng Ling ever since. Not only had he become their partner, he had also surpassed her in every way. She really couldn't help but dislike him.
She also hated herself - she hated herself for knowing that Li Qing could help Feng Ling, but she still couldn't help hating him.
The more I thought about it, the more aggrieved I felt, and my eyes became red.
Huangfu Miaomiao strode forward angrily and raised her hand to wipe away her tears.
She walked so fast that the crow in the cage felt dizzy and cried out.
“Stop yelling!” Huangfu Miaomiao warned the crow fiercely, “If you attract players here, you’ll be dead!”
At the corner of the street ahead, a young woman sighed, "So many players have died. If they dare to come again, they are too heartless..."
"Feng Ling!" Huangfu Miaomiao was immediately delighted, picked up the birdcage and ran over happily.
The crow in the birdcage: “Ahhhhhh!——”
Feng Ling walked slowly to the street light and watched Huangfu Miaomiao running towards him with a smile.
"Except for the crazy people in the Xingxing Society, most alien species are still very careful about their lives. Besides, didn't you digest the new cards? You should be more confident~" Feng Ling said. She and Ye Zheng killed a lot of alien species last night, and roughly estimated that there were more than 60 cards extracted. At Li Qing's suggestion, Xu Yiming digested an antelope and Huangfu Miaomiao digested a chameleon.
So, Feng Ling is actually not that worried about these two people.
Especially Huangfu Miaomiao, Feng Ling thinks that the little skeleton's biggest problem now is that he is used to being a weak person. No matter what situation he encounters, he habitually puts himself in the role of a weak person, failing to realize that he is already stronger than most players.
Huangfu Miaomiao felt at ease as soon as she arrived next to Feng Ling.
She said: "Although our two cards are good at running away, there is also the Taoist priest. He alone is definitely no match for the players."
Feng Ling laughed, "Who told you to run? You two have the advantage of speed, you can definitely kill the alien. It's not too late to run away when you find you can't kill it."
Feng Ling said, his eyes fell on the crow in the birdcage, and then continued: "But we must ensure the safety of the maze administrator. After all, if it dies, the maze will pollute the city."
Huangfu Miaomiao felt sour in her heart and muttered softly: "Then I can only take care of the crows, not the Taoist priest."
Feng Ling thought about it after hearing this and said, "If you can't take care of it, then don't take care of it. It's not a big problem."
Huangfu Miaomiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and she looked up at Feng Ling, "...It's not a big problem?"
"Yeah." Feng Ling nodded.
In her opinion, the maze that Li Qing was responsible for no longer existed. If he died suddenly, it would not cause any impact. At most, she would lose some convenience when searching for the maze. However, this might be solved through human technological means in the future.
Moreover, Li Qing is now a free man. He does not need to guard the maze and can log off at any time.
So, if you encounter an emergency, can't you just go offline?
Huangfu Miaomiao of course didn't know what Feng Ling was thinking. She was already very happy, thinking that she had finally surpassed Li Qing! Oh yeah~ So happy!
Behind Huangfu Miaomiao, Xu Yiming and Li Qing also arrived one after another.
When Xu Yiming saw Feng Ling, he couldn't help but smile, "You spent quite a long time eating this meal, are you a friend you haven't seen for a long time?"
"Well, it seems like we haven't seen each other for ten or eleven years? I can't remember clearly," Feng Ling smiled, "I didn't expect to meet here. Fate is quite strange, so we chatted for a while longer. How about you guys? Have you found anything?"
Li Qing shook his head slowly, "The entrance should be in this area, but I haven't figured out the exact time yet."
Feng Ling asked him: "Have we missed the time when the maze opens?"
Li Qing frowned and thought seriously, "It shouldn't be. The time period in a day when the maze can be opened will not be just a few minutes. It should be a relatively long period..."
"Forget it, let's keep looking." Feng Ling looked around and asked them, "Where are we going next?"
"The crossroads ahead." Xu Yiming replied, "The crossroads, the rooftop, and the back alley. We have been circling around these three places."
Feng Ling nodded and walked towards the intersection.
Huangfu Miaomiao, Li Qing and Xu Yiming followed immediately.
I don’t know if Feng Ling was lucky tonight, but as soon as she and her men arrived at the intersection, a big golden exclamation mark appeared above the crow’s head.
