Dating The Fallen Lord

Chapter 19: Caged bird1

Views:

Gu Jiu knew that her grandmother and uncle didn't believe what she said and thought she was comforting them.

She didn't know how to explain it.

Regarding the Zhutian Game, players will be banned by the rules of the world after returning to the real world, and are not allowed to reveal anything about the game world. Of course, this ban is only for low-level players. When players reach a certain level and can touch the rules of the world, the rules will not restrict players too much.

At this stage, for Gu Jiu, who has just experienced her first game, the world rules are forbidden to her.

This made her have some guesses about the Zhutian Game, but her current experience was too little and she had no evidence to support it, so it was hard to say anything.

For the next two days, Gu Jiu didn't go anywhere and stayed at home with his grandmother.

Old Mrs. Gu was both happy and sad. She certainly hoped that her child could stay at home with her, but if the price was her eyes, it would be better for the child to stay high outside and only come back to see her occasionally.

Old Mrs. Gu was worried that her granddaughter would get sick from being bored at home, so she advised: "Ajiu, if you feel bored, you don't have to stay at home with an old lady like me every day. You can go and play with your friends, or go to Qingzhu House to sit. I heard that Jingyi has adopted a lot of cats. How about raising a few cats and dogs at home?"

The Gu family did not have any pets, mainly because everyone in the family was busy. Later, after Song Qinghe got married, she soon became pregnant, making it even more difficult to keep a pet.

Gu Jiu took his grandmother's hand and walked in the small garden. "Grandma, I'm not bored. I wish I could stay at home with you every day! You are not an old woman. You are still very young. When we go out together, people often think you are my mother."

Old Mrs. Gu's heart was softened by her and she was very touched.

Who can resist such a spoiled little girl? I wish I could give her my whole heart.

"Grandma, if you want to keep a pet, just do so. Don't worry about me. But let me make this clear, I'm too lazy to take care of myself, so I won't help you take care of a pet." Gu Jiu said this in advance so that her family would not think that she wanted to buy a pet and then ask her to learn how to take care of it.

Can the eldest lady take care of a pet? If she could have a pet that would take care of her, she would be willing to have one.

Mrs. Gu said with a smile: "You don't have to take care of it. There are servants at home to take care of it. You can tease it if you like."

I have been thinking about whether to buy a guide dog for my granddaughter, but I am worried that I will be too obvious and make her sad... My granddaughter is a good girl. Even if she is sad, she will not tell them, but they feel bad for her.

Soon it will be time to enter the gaming world again.

In the evening, Gu Jiu said goodnight to his grandmother, uncle, and aunt, then went back to his room to rest.

Although she couldn't see clearly in the real world, she had lived in the Gu family for more than ten years and would not fall even with her eyes closed. In addition, in recent months, the Gu family had moved the furnishings in the house to take care of her, and many small objects and furnishings that would block the way were removed to prevent her from tripping.

After returning to the room, Gu Jiu went to the bathroom to wash up, and then changed into clothes suitable for going out.

Then she sat down on the edge of the bed, put on her glasses, and began to wait for the time to come.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Gu Jiu felt a familiar pull, and the world was spinning in his vision.

This strange feeling came and went quickly.

It was still the familiar gray foggy space, surrounded by thick fog and no one was around.

About to enter the D-level game field: Bird in a Cage.

Game mission: Survive for seven days.

After the system's mechanical sound rang out, a shopping mall panel appeared, listing a number of props and products.

Item 1: Holy Light Talisman, 200 points per piece, each person is allowed to purchase one.

Prop 2: The terrifying chainsaw, 500 points each, each person is allowed to purchase one.

Prop 3: Encircle the area as a prison, a defensive prop, 1,000 points each, each person is allowed to purchase one.

… …

Gu Jiu looked at the items and found that the points required for the props ranged from low to high, with the highest one requiring two thousand points. She didn't even look at them, and finally her eyes fell on some inconspicuous items in the corner.

Clothes: 1 point per set, no limit on quantity.

Toiletries: 1 point for one set, no limit on quantity.

Food: bread, water, instant noodles, 1 point per item, no limit on quantity.

Gu Jiu stared at the daily necessities and food that were sold as cheaply as street stall goods, spent fifty points to buy clothes, toiletries and food, and threw them all into the system backpack.

The baby voice of System No. 387 appeared: Ajiu, don’t you want to buy the Holy Light Talisman

Gu Jiu swiped at the mall interface and said nonchalantly, "A Holy Light Talisman costs 200 points. It's not worth buying it. It's better to buy more daily necessities. Even in the game world, the quality of life cannot be reduced."

system:…

The system suddenly wavered in its judgment. Could such a delicate lady really become a big shot in the high-level field in the future? Which player who entered the game world didn't use points to buy the props needed in the game world as much as possible? Clothes, food and other daily necessities were secondary.

Gu Jiu complained, "Your game is too stingy. The props are so expensive, and you want players to spend all their points quickly. I also want to buy props, but if I buy props, I won't have points to buy daily necessities and food. What if the game world this time doesn't provide players with daily necessities and food like the Cursed Village dungeon? Wouldn't I be unable to change clothes for seven days? I won't do that."

System: …What she said makes a lot of sense. It is speechless.

The system knows the situation of the game copy better than the players do. The situation of the game world that the players are about to enter is really just as she said, and players will not be provided with things like daily necessities.

"Actually, I want a stick that can be used to beat people and ghosts. It should be light and not tiring to lift. Is there such a stick?"

System: ... All the items in the mall are listed above. If they are not there, then there is none.

Gu Jiu curled his lips, and after finally reading the mall interface, he said to the system: "Okay, send me into the game world."

The system quickly sent her into the game world, as if afraid that she would say something that would embarrass Tongsheng.

A familiar consciousness revolved and appeared, and the gray fog in the field of vision disappeared, replaced by bright light.

Gu Jiu adjusted his glasses and looked around.

This is a European-style living room. It is very large and has a spiral staircase leading to the upper floor.

The door was closed, but the window was open, allowing one to see the sky outside. It was daytime, and bright light seeped in from the window, making the room bright.

There were nineteen people in the living room, as if they were the social elites, the lower classes, students and street thugs. Gu Jiu noticed that their expressions were different. Those with calm expressions were definitely the official players, while those with panicked or shocked faces were newcomers. There were quite a few newcomers, nine in total.

She remembered Fatty saying that the more players there were in a game copy, the more dangerous the copy would be.

Suddenly, Gu Jiu's gaze fell on the girl in a white dress not far away. He slightly bent his eyes towards her and smiled.

When Lu Ji saw her, he walked towards her without hesitation and stood with her.

"Miss Gu, we meet again." Lu Ji said in a low voice.

Gu Jiu's eyebrows curved, "Sister Aji, we are really destined to meet. I didn't expect to meet again in the second game world."

Players enter the game copy randomly, and unless there are team props, the hope of being grouped together is very slim. For example, in this game, except for Lu Ji, they did not see the familiar Wu Yang and Fatty brothers.

Lu Ji hummed and said nothing.

The other players were also looking at the surrounding environment and the people present. When they saw Lu Ji walking towards Gu Jiu, they knew that they knew each other. There were other players who made the same choice as Lu Ji. When they saw someone they knew, they all came over.

One of them was a handsome man wearing a well-tailored suit and gold-rimmed glasses, dressed like a social elite and very eye-catching.

Three players took the initiative to walk up to him and greet him.

Compared to the calmness of the players, the newcomers were panicked. Some of them were yelling, thinking it was a prank and that someone had locked them up here with malicious intent.

A Shamatte thug roared: "No matter who plays a prank on me, I will never stand by it!"

As he said this, he quickly ran towards the tightly closed door and turned the doorknob to open it. However, no matter how hard he tried, the door would not open. His face turned red, and he kicked the door hard, making it bang loudly.

Seeing this scene, several players sneered.

The other newcomers did not have the courage of that Shamatte gangster and stood there in fear.

They were not stupid. Although they did not understand what was happening or why they were in such a place, as long as they thought of the mechanical sound that just sounded in their minds, they vaguely understood that this was not a prank.

They looked at the group of calm and composed regular players, knowing that they must understand what was happening.

A woman with a pointed chin glanced at the crowd and her eyes fell on the elite man in a well-tailored suit.

Her eyes lit up and she moved closer to him. After being stopped by a woman next to the elite man, she was not discouraged and said in a coquettish voice: "Brother, can you tell us what is going on? What is the game of all heavens?"

The other newcomers seemed to have found their backbone and looked at the elite man.

The elite man took out a white handkerchief from his suit pocket and wiped his hands slowly, ignoring the newcomers.

Instead, a middle-aged man next to him took the initiative to step forward and attract the attention of the newcomers.

The middle-aged man had an ordinary appearance, the type that you would not be able to find in a crowd. He said with a smile, "I believe you all heard a mechanical voice in your mind just now. Don't doubt it, it's real, not your illusion! You have been selected as players of the Zhutian Game. Enter the game world to complete the mission."

"This time, your mission is to survive in the 'Bird in a Cage' for seven days. As long as you survive successfully, you will become a formal player in the Zhutian game world and be able to return to the real world..."

Gu Jiu looked at the elite man and the middle-aged man who was explaining, and realized that they should be veteran players in this game copy. They accepted the task assigned by the game and explained the game to the newcomers in the first game so that they would know nothing.

From what the middle-aged man said, he did not deceive the newcomer or hide the content of the task.
