路遇
Road Encounters
回到采药的地方,微微很快就把小雨家族那三人置之脑后,倒是有件事有些好奇,边采药边问奈何:“你怎么知道他在做连环任务?”
Returning to the place where they collected herbs, Wei Wei quickly put aside her thoughts about the three members of the Xiao family and became curious about something else. While gathering herbs, she asked Nai He, “How did you know he was doing a series of tasks?”
“下午我上过一次线,看见他在世界上喊要收七种羽毛。”
“I logged in once in the afternoon and saw him shouting in the World channel about wanting to collect seven kinds of feathers.”
奈何略略解释了一下,微微才知道,原来奈何下午上线,恰好看到魔道誓血在『世界』频道上喊要收购七种羽毛过任务,于是奈何就知道魔道誓血在做连环任务了。
Nai He briefly explained, and Wei Wei soon realized that Nai He happened to see Mo Dao Shi Xue calling for the collection of seven feathers for a quest that afternoon, which is why Nai He knew Mo Dao Shi Xue was doing a series of tasks.
微微有点懵,为什么收集七种羽毛就是做连环任务?
Wei Wei felt a bit confused; why does collecting seven kinds of feathers mean undertaking a series of tasks?
“有好几个任务都要收集羽毛啊。”
“There are several quests that require collecting feathers,” she said.
奈何:“嗯,但是发任务的NPC不同,收集羽毛是连环任务的36环,我到36环的NPC那等了一下,很快他出现了。”
Nai He replied, “Yes, but the NPCs giving the tasks are different. Collecting feathers is the 36th stage of the series. I waited for a bit at the NPC for the 36th stage, and he appeared quickly.”
除了膜拜,微微没其他想法了,他他他居然连第几环都记得!居然连第几环会遇见什么NPC都记得!这记忆力太惊人了吧!
Other than admiration, Wei Wei had no other thoughts. He actually remembered which stage it was! He even remembered which NPC would appear at which stage! That memory is incredible!
想到自己至今英语单词还只有背到P,微微不禁小泪纵横,很心酸的赞美他:“你记忆力也太好了。”
Thinking about how she still had only memorized words up to the letter P in English, Wei Wei couldn’t help but shed a few tears and sighed, “Your memory is really good.”
忽然又想到,大神下午就看见魔道誓血了,居然没立刻收拾他,而是算好时间晚上等在了天山雪池……这计算能力和算计能力也很惊人啊……太狠了。
Suddenly, she remembered that the great deity saw Mo Dao Shi Xue that afternoon but didn’t immediately deal with him. Instead, he calculated the time and waited at Tianshan Snow Pond in the evening... That ability to calculate and strategize is also astonishing... That's really ruthless.
微微玩梦游江湖的时间不知不觉的增加了。
Wei Wei realized that she was unconsciously spending more time on the game "Dreaming Rivers and Lakes."
以前微微有个很in的绰号叫“宅式美女”,现在已经被舍友称为“宅式霉女”了。以前微微还经常和舍友去逛逛街买买衣服,现在已经完全没兴致了,除了念书就是游戏。
In the past, Wei Wei had a trendy nickname called “Homebody Beauty,” but now her roommates had taken to calling her “Homebody Muddle.” Previously, she often went shopping with her roommates, but now she was completely uninterested, spending her time either studying or gaming.
这天傍晚,舍友们要去逛街,苦口婆心的拉她去,丝丝说:“微微,就当运动啦,天天坐电脑前身体不好的。”
That evening, her roommates wanted to go shopping and persistently persuaded her. Si Si said, “Wei Wei, just treat it as exercise, sitting in front of the computer every day isn’t good for your health.”
微微晕:“你也好意思说运动,天天早上要我帮忙跑操打卡不知道是谁,天天忘记打水要我带的不知道又是谁。”
Wei Wei countered, “You have the nerve to talk about exercise; who is it that asks me to help out with morning exercises and forgets to get water every day?”
丝丝语结,晓玲上阵:“微微你身上穿的衣服还是去年的吧,去买件新的啦。”
Si Si was speechless, and Xiao Ling jumped in, “Wei Wei, the clothes you’re wearing are from last year, go buy something new!”
微微满不在乎的挥手:“衣服够穿就好了嘛。”
Wei Wei waved her hand dismissively, “As long as the clothes are wearable, that's good enough.”
晓玲指着她手抖啊抖。“你一个美女说这种话,真是太可耻了!你再这样下去,会被踢出校园美女榜的。”
Xiao Ling pointed at her hand, shaking in disbelief. “For a beauty to say such things is really shameful! If you keep this up, you’ll be kicked off the campus beauty list.”
她不说还好,想到那个美女榜微微就郁闷,那个榜排就排吧,居然还弄个不安全指数,经过公众投票,她还高居不安全指数榜首!
It was better that she didn’t say that, as the very thought of that beauty list made Wei Wei feel depressed. Let them rank as they please, but they even had an insecurity index based on public voting, and she was at the top of the insecurity index!
微微撇头做不屑状:“踢掉最好,我向来跟别人比内在的!”
Wei Wei turned her head away in disdain, “Then kick me off! I’ve always compared my inner self to others!”
二喜终于怒了:“贝微微!你不去谁来杀价!你敢不去今晚大刑伺候!”
Er Xi finally got furious, “Bei Wei Wei! If you don’t go, who will help us haggle! If you dare not go, you’ll be punished tonight!”
微微:“……”
Wei Wei replied, “…”
这才是她们拉她去的真正目的吧,为了她无敌的杀价本领……
So that was the real reason they were pulling her along, for her unbeatable haggling skills…
最终微微还是屈服在二喜的暴力下,被拖上了街。
In the end, Wei Wei still succumbed to Er Xi’s force and was dragged out to the street.
说是逛街,其实就是在学校周边的服饰店转转,并没有跑多远。
Though they called it shopping, it was merely wandering around clothing stores near the school; they didn’t go too far.
没逛多久,微微手里就多了大包小包,都是舍友的,倒不是舍友奴役她,只是她们时不时要试衣服,放来放去麻烦,不买衣服的微微干脆就全部拿过来了。
Before long, Wei Wei’s hands were filled with large and small bags, all belonging to her roommates. It wasn't that they were forcing her to be their servant; they just had to try on clothes frequently, so instead of passing them around, Wei Wei simply took all of them.
又进了一家店,晓玲试了衣服出来,正好听到微微坐在那里自言自语:“难道我最近走跟班命?”
They entered another store, and as Xiao Ling tried on some clothes, she happened to hear Wei Wei muttering to herself while sitting, “Am I destined to be a follower lately?”
游戏里也是这样,奈何大神现在是越来越习惯差使她了……不过那都是她自找的。
It was the same in the game; the great deity was becoming more accustomed to bossing her around… But that had all been of her own making.
晓玲在旁听着不由好笑,这家伙居然还在哀怨呢,一脸的不甘不愿,游戏有那么好玩嘛。
Xiao Ling, overhearing, couldn’t help but laugh. This girl was still complaining, with a face full of reluctance—was the game really that fun?
走过去安慰的拍拍她:“好啦,别抱怨了,看在你帮我还了不少价的份上,本大款今天晚上请你吃天香居的红酒鸡翅,这总行了吧。”
She walked over and patted her comfortingly, “Alright, enough complaining. In light of you helping me haggle down a lot, I, the big spender, will treat you to roasted chicken wings with red wine at Tianxiangju tonight, is that acceptable?”
天香居是家很好吃的菜馆,就在学校附近,不过因为价格昂贵,去吃的学生并不多,也只有晓玲这种有钱的败家女才会常去。
Tianxiangju was a restaurant known for its delicious dishes, located near the school. However, due to its high prices, few students went there, and only someone like Xiao Ling, the rich spendthrift, would frequent it.
所以她此言一出,立刻迎来大家一阵欢呼,微微说:“我劳苦功高,鸡翅我要一半。”
As soon as she said that, everyone cheered, and Wei Wei remarked, “I’ve worked hard, I want half of the chicken wings.”
丝丝没好气的说:“谁跟你抢,我还要减肥的。”
Si Si retorted, “Who’s competing with you? I’m trying to lose weight.”
微微得意洋洋:“我吃不胖你就嫉妒吧,哈哈哈哈。”
Wei Wei replied gleefully, “You’re jealous I don’t gain weight, haha!”
她得意的样子实在欠扁,其实很瘦却号称喝水都会发胖的丝丝咬牙切齿的说:“晓玲,关门,放二喜,咬她!”
Her smugness was quite annoying; Si Si, who was actually very slim yet claimed that she would gain weight just by drinking water, gritted her teeth and said, “Xiao Ling, shut the door—release Er Xi, bite her!”
几个人早就饿了,剩下的店也没兴趣再逛,一齐笑闹着往天香居走去。
The group was already hungry and didn’t feel like visiting any more stores. They all laughed and bantered while heading towards Tianxiangju.
说说笑笑间,天香居已经近在眼前。丝丝正兴奋的说着系里男生的八卦,忽然停下了脚步,望着天香居门口,激动的抓住微微的手:“快看,那是不是肖奈!”
Amidst their chatter and laughter, Tianxiangju was just ahead. Si Si was excitedly talking about the gossip of boys in their department when she suddenly stopped in her tracks, looking at the entrance of Tianxiangju, and excitedly grabbed Wei Wei’s hand. “Quick, is that Xiao Nai!”
马路对面的天香居门口,一群衣冠楚楚的人正从里面走出来,微微一眼就看到了肖奈,在一群中年男人中,在灯火璀璨下,年轻挺拔的肖奈格外的显眼眩目。
At the entrance of Tianxiangju across the street, a group of well-dressed individuals was coming out, and Wei Wei spotted Xiao Nai at a glance, standing out among a group of middle-aged men in the dazzling light.
和以前见过的那几次不同,他今天穿着一身正式的西装,脸上甚至带着几分淡淡的笑意,依旧是清俊雅致带着几分清傲的样子,却又似乎多了一丝世故沉着。
Unlike the few times she had seen him before, today he was dressed in a formal suit, and there was even a hint of a faint smile on his face, still handsome and elegant while carrying a touch of pride, yet there seemed to be a hint of worldly composure.
“啊,快过马路。”
“Ah, hurry across the street!”
虽然肯定不会上前打招呼,不过近点也好啊。
Although she certainly wouldn’t go greet him, being a little closer was good.
丝丝激动的拉着微微飞快的穿过马路,但是已经来不及了,那群中年男人已经上了一辆商务车,肖奈也已经打开了另一辆车的车门。
Si Si eagerly pulled Wei Wei to quickly cross the street, but it was too late; the group of middle-aged men had already gotten into a commercial vehicle, and Xiao Nai was already opening the door of another car.
不过大概她们的动作太大了,肖奈在临上车前,仿佛有所察觉的向她们的方向看来。
However, perhaps their movements were too conspicuous, as Xiao Nai seemed to have sensed something and glanced in their direction just before getting into the car.
和刚刚在灯光下看到的笑意不同,此时的肖奈眉眼间堆满了漠然,眼神淡淡的平静的滑过她们,然后车门关上,车子开走了。
Unlike the smile she had just seen under the lights, this time Xiao Nai’s expression was filled with indifference, his gaze calmly gliding over them, and then the car door closed, and the car drove away.
