When Qiao Zhuo woke up, he had already returned to his new residence in the jungle. The roof that had not yet been built had been covered by a complete wooden board at this moment, without any light leaking in.

The first time Qiao Zhuo regained consciousness, he was stunned for a while, and then he couldn't help holding his forehead and cursing in a low voice, what a beast!

He knew that Yan Qing had endured it for a long time, but he didn't expect this kid to hide so many tricks.

Qiao Zhuo propped up the bed to get up, the soft hay and sleeping bag under his body were well insulated, barely catching him from the cold.

But just when Qiao Zhuo was about to get out of bed, he inadvertently saw the herbs piled up in the corner of the residence.

Almost in an instant, Qiao Zhuo subconsciously recalled those special herbs that Yan Qing said last night, and now looking at the shape and color, they are clearly the same!

The pile of herbs was as high as a hill, Qiao Zhuo was terrified when he saw it.

Qiao Zhuo couldn't help but collapsed in his heart and said, "System, check whether Yan Qing's mental state is okay? Are you really crazy?"

The mechanical sound of the system ruthlessly broke Qiao Zhuo's illusions, and he said, "Check at the host's request...there is nothing abnormal, please rest assured the host."

Qiao Zhuo: "..."

As soon as the system's voice fell, Yan Qing from outside the door came in, and he grasped Qiao Zhuo's wrist with ease to check his injury.

Yan Qing, who was originally ordered not to leave any traces on Qiao Zhuo's body, actually reversed this order last night.

The man in front of him is not only covered with gnawing marks on his slender neck and shoulders, but also those dense and charming marks continue to extend down his neckline until they reach a position that cannot be seen under the cloth cover.

Qiao Zhuo lowered his eyes and let Yan Qing apply the medicine for him. Only the two of them knew that Qiao Zhuo really didn't have any intact skin on his body anymore.

Even the deepest thighs were left with tooth marks by Yan Qing.

Yan Qing's domineering and terrifying possessiveness seemed to finally have a home, and he went crazy and desperately declared his sovereignty over Qiao Zhuo.

Although Qiao Zhuo had made preparations long ago, he was also quite frightened.

Yan Qing lowered his head and suddenly asked, "Are you hungry?"

The man's shoulders are straight and broad, even sitting on the edge of the bed, blocking the light from the door, he looks very attractive.

Sitting in this shelter built by Yan Qing himself, Qiao Zhuo thought for a moment that he was being spoiled by the golden house.

But this is not a golden house, and he is not a little Jiao.

When Qiao Zhuo spoke, his voice was full of emotion. The hoarseness after the incident was very seductive.

"Eat, after eating, find out where this place is." Qiao Zhuo said while following Yan Qing's strength to get out of bed and stand up.

Yan Qing walked out of the residence with a deep and pleasant voice, "I didn't see any inscriptions here, but I found a cave deep in the jungle."

Qiao Zhuo was dazzled by the light outside the house, but before he could close his eyes, a big hand stretched out to block his eyes.

After a while, the hand was released.

Yan Qing went to the pot and lifted the lid, then stirred the rice porridge with a spoon, and said, "I walked in for ten minutes and I still haven't reached the end, it's very deep inside."

Yan Qing didn't explain why he didn't continue walking in, but Qiao Zhuo knew, so he didn't ask further.

Qiao Zhuo took the small wooden bowl Yan Qing handed over, and said flatly: "Then let's go in later."

Qiao Zhuo is looking for Huolun Island, Yan Qing is also looking for Huolun Island, all of them are looking for the legendary treasure place.

It is undoubtedly a dream ending to be stranded on a deserted island after being swept by wind and waves. If this island is the legendary Huolun Island, all problems will be solved easily.

Qiao Zhuo held the bowl in his hands and lowered his eyes to think, it seems that the plot line of the small world is coming to an end.

Qiao Zhuo was immersed in his own thoughts and didn't notice Yan Qing's eyes looking over for a while.

The blond-haired man sitting beside him in front of him has loose hair, and his dark blue eyes are so beautiful that it is unbelievable, not to mention that there are traces of Yan Qing everywhere on his collarbone at the moment.

Whether it's the pair of slender wrists or the trembling crow eyelashes, they are all extremely attractive.

Yan Qing only had a hearty meal for one night, which he felt was not enough.

Perhaps it was because the wolf-like eyes were too obvious, Qiao Zhuo, who was dragged into his mind by the man and frantically fiddled with him, suddenly turned around and looked sideways.

When the eyes of the two collided, Qiao Zhuo's hand holding the wooden bowl trembled unconsciously.

Yan Qing lowered his eyes and avoided it calmly. He picked up a wooden branch and swept the ashes on the ground.

Qiao Zhuo immediately put down the bowl, raised his eyebrows and said firmly: "I don't want to have a second chance of what happened last night."

Yan Qing's hand holding the wooden branch paused, his handsome brows and eyes became dignified.

Qiao Zhuo snorted and said, "I've seen all the herbs in the house."

Yan Qing had no excuses at all, and only tried to fight for it, saying, "But you like it too."

Qiao Zhuo cursed, then glanced coldly, "Nonsense."

Yan Qing's expression didn't change after being scolded, he just stared at the ground with lowered eyes and thought.

After eating, the two went to the cave together. As Yan Qing said, it was unfathomable, the oxygen became thinner as they went inside, and the surrounding area was so dark that you couldn't see your fingers.

The two walked for half an hour, and Yan Qing made up his mind that he could not continue, so they made a mark and returned the same way, waiting for the next time when they were more prepared before coming in.

Afterwards, they continued to explore this mysterious cave for five or six days, going deeper and deeper. Fortunately, they had marked the way along the way, and Yan Qing and Qiao Zhuo never encountered any danger.

Caves are explored during the day, and herbs are explored at night.

No matter how harsh Qiao Zhuo's words are, everything will be counted in Yan Qing's territory.

So under Qiao Zhuo's repeated resistance to no avail, the lubricating herbs piled up in the room as high as a hill were finally used up to the bottom.

Yan Qing's tricks are unspeakable, and Qiao Zhuo is hard to guard against, but even in such an ordinary day, Yan Qing's career growth value has increased by two points.

After another meal, the two got ready to explore the cave.

Qiao Zhuo put on a heavy coat, and tied a rope around his waist to connect with Yan Qing.

During yesterday's exploration, they found a deep pit. If they walked through the muddy pit, they might be able to reach the end of the cave.

Yan Qing glanced at Qiao Zhuo with his dark eyes, and said in a deep voice, "It's still the same as before. Once we find something is wrong, we will come out immediately."

Qiao Zhuo's golden-brown hair was tied up by Yan Qing with slender but flexible grass silk, and the man's neck was still covered with red hickey marks, as if he had been loved countless times.

Qiao Zhuo glanced at him and said, "I know."

These days they also often go to the beach, but they have never met anyone else on the Red Lady, let alone other strange fishermen.

This is a deserted island in the depths of the North Banya Sea, and it is possible that no one will come here for the first time in a lifetime.

Compared to Yan Qing who didn't know, Qiao Zhuo relied on the system in his mind to recognize immediately that this was the legendary Huolun Island.

So Qiao Zhuo was sure that the plot line of the small world would end on this deserted island.

In the first half of the cave, they were familiar with the road, but in a narrow section that required bending over, the two of them still walked with great difficulty.

This is where the oxygen is thinnest and where the danger is greatest.

Yan Qing raised his hand to hold Qiao Zhuo's shoulder, and moved to the front to lead the way.

Just when Qiao Zhuo followed Yan Qing into the narrow section of the road, the system prompt suddenly appeared in his ear.

"The hero, Yan Qing, has a career growth value of +5."

Qiao Zhuodang realized that something must be waiting for them after walking this road and the muddy land.

The narrow road was not long, but the two walked out within a few minutes, and Yan Qing turned sideways to check the belts they tied tightly to each other.

Qiao Zhuo suddenly raised his hand to hold Yan Qing's wrist, and said lightly, "I'll go ahead in a while."

Yan Qing was stunned for a while, but still nodded in agreement.

The muddy ground was very wet and cold, Qiao Zhuo couldn't stop shivering when he slipped into it.

Yan Qing's arm supported Qiao Zhuo's waist, and the man's muscular body was emitting a steady stream of heat.

"Go forward, don't stop." Yan Qing's voice was also trembling.

Finally, after a long journey, Qiao Zhuo touched a huge black rock.

The passage in front of them suddenly lit up, and there were several candles on both sides of the corridor. The flames were made of unknown materials, but they lit up automatically when they climbed up.

Qiao Zhuo stepped forward and twisted the heart of fire, and said lightly: "Small tricks."

The trouser legs of both of them were already stained with dirty mud and drenched, Yan Qing stood beside Qiao Zhuo and asked with his eyes.

Qiao Zhuo only said, "Go in."

The door of the stone room was open, no extra effort was needed, the two of them walked in side by side after a short rest.

I saw a small stone room that was not wide, and could even be said to be narrow, full of gold and silver treasures. The gold and silver mountains almost reached the ceiling, and everything around them was inlaid with gold and silver, and even the stone walls were made of white jade.Yes, extremely extravagant.

Countless peerless treasures that amazed the world were randomly thrown on the ground, full of swords were inserted in the golden mountain in all directions, and the gems radiated bright light under the candlelight.

But the most eye-catching thing is the dark red throne on the top of the golden mountain. There is a crown on the velvet-like throne, and huge gemstones are engraved on it. Power seems to be within reach at this moment.

Qiao Zhuo and Yan Qing stopped immediately.

Yan Qing's expression was very complicated, except for a little shock, there was no joy.

Qiao Zhuo lowered his eyes and squatted down, casually fished out gold coins from his side and said with a faint smile, "I didn't expect the legend to be true. It seems that the question of where this island is is finally settled."

Yan Qing silently watched everything in front of him without moving, the bridge of his handsome nose cast a shadow on his profile.

Qiao Zhuo took a step forward and lay down in the golden mountain, letting the gold coins and precious stones be buried in his neck. The man raised his beautiful dark blue eyes and said with a smile, "I will not worry about food and clothing in this life."

On the way back, the two were silent the whole time.

The light from the hole in the distance has already penetrated in. For some reason, Yan Qing suddenly grabbed Qiao Zhuo's wrist, "Wait a minute."

The voice of the system rang in Qiao Zhuo's ear: "Little World hero Yan Qing, career growth value +3, still short of the last two points, host please come on!"

Qiao Zhuo immediately realized what happened. The dark cave seemed to be the last shelter for the two of them. As long as they walked out of here, all the pretense would disappear, revealing the cruelest truth.

Qiao Zhuo looked up at Yan Qing, and finally walked out without any hesitation without saying anything.

Yan Qing followed closely behind, but he still chose to block Qiao Zhuo when he saw the sunlight outside the cave.

What they saw didn't surprise anyone.

I saw that the regular army led by Gus was standing against the pirates headed by Adrian and Weedy. Both sides were holding guns.

The dense crowd became agitated when they saw Yan Qing and Qiao Zhuo walking out of the cave.

Gu Si was both surprised and happy: "Commander! Commander, you finally came out! I saw the marks you left along the road..."

Adrian and Widdy shouted excitedly: "Joe! You're really alive!"

Qiao Zhuo glanced sideways and found that most of the pirates on the Red Lady were here, and the casualties were not serious.

Both Yan Qing and him chose to leave marks along the road, and the two groups of people gathered in front of the cave without any precedence.

Everything was an unreasonable coincidence, it was almost tailor-made for this small world hero and the big villain to fight to the death.

The motivating voice of the system is still echoing in Qiao Zhuo's ears.

Yan Qing, who survived and found the correct location on Huolun Island, suddenly gained popularity in the regular army.

Seeing the two standing side by side, Gu Si felt that Yan Qing had caught the big pirate, and could not help yelling loudly: "We warned the North Banian pirates in the name of the empire, and now give up resistance immediately, maybe there is still a glimmer of life!"

The second after Gusi yelled that sentence, Adrian and his party also scolded angrily.

The scene fell into chaos for a while, but because Qiao Zhuo and Yan Qing were in charge, the two sides only talked about it, and didn't really do it.

The accident happened in an instant, with a click, the sound of a bullet being loaded.

Qiao Zhuo's revolver didn't need to be loaded, so his pistol reached the man's forehead half a second faster than Yan Qing.

But Yan Qing's speed is also very fast, his handsome black eyes are like obsidian at night, shining brightly.

Everyone's voices disappeared, and countless pairs of eyes watched Yan Qing and Qiao Zhuo raise their guns to confront each other, and a terrifying atmosphere spread instantly, covering the entire island.

The sound of high tide in the sea can be clearly heard in the distance, and the salty sea breeze is lingering on the tip of the nose, and this place is not far from the beach.

Yan Qing's arm holding the gun was very steady, without shaking at all. He smiled and said, "Joe, your gun is still as fast."

Qiao Zhuo raised his chin coldly and said ruthlessly, "My bullets are faster."

The system was frightened by the scene in front of it, and quickly stopped it: "Host, the male protagonist Yan Qing's career growth value is only two points away from reaching full value! Don't make mistakes at this time!"

"Mistake?" Qiao Zhuo smiled, but there was no smile in his eyes. He said bluntly: "Little system, I remember that when you opened the mysterious mall that time, there was a wooden box in the corner of the commodity shelf."

What Qiao Zhuo was talking about was the empty wooden box engraved with the English word Hope.

When the system was first introduced, it said that it could help the tasker fulfill any wish.

Qiao Zhuo kept his eyes open back then, because such a huge temptation could not be unconditional, and all the prizes were clearly marked with prices, but why was it that only the wooden box had no conditions for obtaining it?

Until he finished jumping through several small worlds and connected all the clues that the system had leaked, Qiao Zhuo finally understood, and he also felt that he had guessed right.

If this is not a mission world, but a game.

"Is it a login reward?" Qiao Zhuo asked.

The system suddenly fell silent.

Everything around was terribly quiet, there were obviously thousands of people standing here, but at this moment it was as quiet as if there was no one there.

Adrian and Widdie beside him seemed to be stuck, and even Gus, who had been yelling just now, stopped all his movements as if there was a bug.

Only Yan Qing in front of him has not changed at all, his eyes are still alive.

Qiao Zhuo guessed that this is a game that needs to be played with the correct ending, so it is not difficult to guess the way to get the wooden box along this path.

There is no need to obtain conditions and costs, which may represent an extremely difficult mode, but there is another possibility, perhaps its collection does not require conditions at all.

Hope is basically a player's game login reward.

As for why Qiao Zhuo has not been able to claim it, it can only prove that he logged in wrongly from the very beginning.

From the moment he woke up, the system in his ears cheered loudly to welcome him to the villain system.

But how could the main perspective of a commercial game be assigned to a doomed villain?

The system is lying.

The player should enter the game as the male protagonist, and achieve the peak career achievement ending, with career as the main character, and feelings with the other.

This is the logical and refreshing way.

This is the perfect ending that the system has been talking about.

But Qiao Zhuo made a mistake in logging in and chose the identity of a villain. All the endings he got through all the time were just helping the hero to reach the pinnacle of his career...

If you want Qiao Zhuo to have a perfect ending...

Then the person standing in that position should be him.

Just when Qiao Zhuo was thinking about it all, the system in his mind heard a frenzied electrical sound, as if it had completely collapsed.

"Detected, detected bugs... please host... host, host %#&%...destroy...destroy."

"Warning! Warning! Warning!"

A bright red light flickered in Qiao Zhuo's mind, and everything around him returned to normal.

Adrian saw that Qiao Zhuo was not in the right state and wanted to step forward to support him, but Gu Si beside him suddenly raised his finger and pointed to the distant sea, his face turned pale with shock, and shouted: "Tsunami! It's a tsunami!"

Everyone was in a panic, turned around and ran away in a hurry.

At this moment, all gold, silver and treasures are nothing but possessions.

The screams and cries of the crowd were close at hand, but Qiao Zhuo didn't care about it.

Yan Qing stood on the spot, with his arms straight, his eyes like torches, his handsome eyebrows and eyes were as sharp as sculptures, and his deep eyes were fixed on Qiao Zhuo. He suddenly said, "Qiao Zhuo, I'll count to two."

Suddenly a mysterious singing sounded on the island, just like the nursery rhymes of those children.

"holon island, holon island, gold coins, silver coins and rubies, the red lady of Stormy Sea Fortress, holon island, holon island, the brave pirates defeated the dragon, overcame the thorns and regained the treasure..."

The giant dragon sung in this song probably refers to the monstrous waves and tsunami.

Qiao Zhuo looked back with those dark blue eyes, his expression was not panicked at all, it was extremely calm and beautiful.

Yan Qing: "."

"two."

The moment Qiao Zhuo pulled the trigger, he smiled and said, "Hey, I guess who you are."

The man's ending trembled for a moment, "One."

There were two shots in succession outside the cave.

The waves engulfed the entire island in an instant, and all traces disappeared in an instant.

There was a frenzied electric sound from the system, and it kept shouting: "The hero of the small world, Yan Qing, has died, and the mission has failed... The hero has died, and the mission has failed..."

"Warning! Warning! Warning!"

The deep sea in North Bania is calm, and you can't see the edge as far as you can see. There is only cold wind here, not even a gull, and there is no Holon Island.

Suddenly, the screaming system froze suddenly, as if something had strangled its throat forcefully, and could no longer make any sound.

The original hero of the small world has died, and there is a vacancy waiting.

In the next second, a completely unfamiliar and indifferent electronic voice sounded, with a hint of solemnity.

"Player Qiao Zhuo has successfully logged in, please receive the registration reward - HOPE."

Qiao Zhuo sneered with his eyes closed, and the wooden box really appeared in his mind.

All the sounds disappeared with the tide, and a huge red exit button appeared in front of Qiao Zhuo's eyes, as well as a game interface.

Qiao Zhuo grabbed Yan Qing's finger in a pool of blood, pressed the exit button resolutely, and cursed with a smile: "fuck."
