After the darkness receded, Xiao Lan found herself sitting in a rickety van, which looked very dilapidated. The glass of the car window beside him was still taped on, and it clanged with the shaking of the body.
There was a smell of gasoline in the car mixed with the muddy smell of the car that has not been cleaned all the year round, which made people go straight up.
In addition to the driver and Xiao Lan, there were four people sitting in the car.
The driver drove the car on his own, and didn't react at all to all the players' actions.
One of the sleek but plain-looking women frowned because of the bad environment in the car. She complained: "What a broken game is this, I will toss people when I come up!"
Everyone's complexion is not very good. The environment is really uncomfortable. Another woman is already lying by the window with a vomiting expression. It is probably motion sickness.
The small man sitting next to Xiao Lan said to the crowd: "Why don't you introduce yourself at this time, it will be convenient to cooperate later. I will come first, my name is Gu Shengan, and I have experienced three games."
The man with freckles continued, "My name is Zhao Fan, and I only passed one game."
The woman with motion sickness turned her head and said weakly, "Tong Qing... Two sessions."
Xiao Lan: "Xiao Lan, experience one."
The well-dressed woman glanced at everyone and was a little impatient: "Liu Yiyi, it's been a dozen games. It's useless for you to say that, I won't take you."
She is completely uninterested in these rookies who have no more than three games. The death rate of new players within five games is as high as 70%. For old players, only those who have survived five games can be regarded as true junior players. She was naturally not interested in responding to a group of dead people.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became a bit awkward, and several other players exchanged glances, but they didn't speak any more.
Although a dozen games might sound great, but after a dozen games, aren't they still junior players like them? It doesn't seem to be much better.
Luo quietly appeared beside Xiao Lan's hand while no one was paying attention, and rubbed Xiao Lan's hand with her furry cheek. Xiao Lan stretched out her hand and touched it. The fur was moist and smooth, but not as warm as a living thing.
The tattered van was advancing on the rugged mountain road, and the road conditions worsened as it went forward. The four people in the car kept being bumped up and down, and occasionally bumped their heads, so they had to firmly grasp the seats to fix their bodies.
Unlike them, Xiao Lan sat where she was as steady as Mount Tai, but she stretched out her hand and gently grasped the handrail, looking very leisurely. Because Luo jumped directly onto his lap, forming a ball of black hair, which firmly fixed Xiao Lan's body like a pin on the sea.
With a sudden "clang", the van ran over from a pit, and the glass on a window fell off due to the huge vibration of the body. Gu Shengan, who was sitting next to him, had no choice but to hold it with his hands.
Gu Shengan worried: "Can this car reach its destination..."
Liu Yiyi touched her messy haircut and said irritably, "How come to this broken place at random!!"
As for the other two, they were so motion sick that they were speechless.
At this moment, they looked at Xiao Lan, who was calmly running up cats, with envy in their eyes. Cats have such an effect. I don’t know which copy is from the store. I want to woo woo woo...
Of course they don't know that ordinary cats don't have this function.
Finally, at dusk, the van arrived at its destination.
Xiao Lan hugged Luo and got out of the car and looked up. This is a wooden three-story hot spring hotel built in the mountains, which looks simple and elegant. The surrounding plants are luxuriant, the air is particularly fresh, and it is far away from the noise of the city, making it a good place for vacation.
"Ding Dong—"
At this time, a woman sighed faintly in the air: "Help me..."
As soon as this reminder came out, the player instantly felt that this was inside the game copy, and suddenly became nervous.
"How many are the guests who have made reservations before?" A tall and thin old man walked out of the hotel. He rubbed his hands and smiled at a few people. "I am the owner of Liudao Hot Springs. Welcome everyone. It's dinner time. Come on. Please come in."
Several people looked at each other, and they knew that this was the main venue of the game.
Under the guidance of the boss, the player came to the restaurant. At this time, there was already a table of people sitting down in the restaurant. The player sat at the table next to them under the arrangement of the boss.
At that table were four young people who looked twenty-seven and eighty-eight, plus an old man in his sixties with a respectable appearance.
The number of players is exactly the same as the players.
One of the nice guys with pigtails looked very cheerful. He took the initiative to talk to the players: "You guys are here to travel too?"
Xiao Lan replied: "Yes, I came to travel during the off-season. It just happens to be more comfortable for fewer people to play. How about you?"
Little Braid shook his head: "We are the class reunion, and we will gather with the teacher after ten years of graduation."
He pointed his finger at the man in the suit: "Hey, this stylish manager Cheng is the initiator of this party."
Unexpectedly, the man frowned: "Fu Wenbo, don't talk nonsense, isn't it organized by Zhang Jie?"
The name Zhang Jie is a beautiful woman with a hot body and full of silicone on her chest. She looked inexplicable: "Me? Didn't Fu Wenbo send a message to let us come to the party?"
These people looked at each other. Everyone said that they had received the news of the party from others, but none of them admitted that they had initiated the party.
The atmosphere was a bit weird for a while.
It seems that the main line this time is related to these people. This game is not as clear as the previous supermarkets. Probably this is the difference between the novice field and the beginner field.
However, Xiao Lan noticed sharply that a short woman among the five had been looking at him with a horrified look. After Xiao Lan spotted her, her eyes dodged, and she never dared to look at him again. .
Xiao Lan found it strange. He had never played this game before. How could there be an NPC with an expression that not only knew him, but was also psychologically shadowed by him? He was also quite sure that the woman's eyes did indeed fall on him, not around or behind.
Did she see my poor temperament and worry about being infected? Xiao Lan thought.
At this time, the waiter just started serving dishes, breaking the stagnant atmosphere.
The dishes at the hot spring hotel are very good, using local delicacies, paired with fresh meat and vegetables, plus the chef’s extraordinary craftsmanship, it tastes very delicious.
With the help of food, the atmosphere in the crowd slowly eased again.
Only Liu Yiyi resented the poor quality of the tea prepared by the boss. Seeing that no one took care of her, she became angry with herself.
Xiao Zizi Fu Wenbo is a busy person, and he chats with Xiao Lan again.
During the chat, Xiao Lan learned that he was a photographer, Cheng Lang in a suit was a manager, Zhang Jie, an internet celebrity face, was an 18-line star with a background, and the old man named Yang Degao was their dean. The short woman who caught Xiao Lan's attention was Du Yuhui, a housewife.
This time they were revisiting their old place. They were also in this hotel on their graduation trip ten years ago.
Xiao Lan couldn't think of her relationship with the housewife. What was she panicking? Or, what does she know? Xiao Lan felt that maybe she should find time to communicate with her friendly, if she refused, then she would force a friendly communication.
Player's side.
Tong Qing suffered from severe motion sickness before, and now she can't eat anything at all. The smell of food makes her feel even more uncomfortable. She stood up, ready to go out to breathe.
But not wanting to move too quickly to turn over the stool, she hurriedly reached out to support the stool. When she got up, she grabbed a mobile phone in her hand and asked other players, "Which one of you has dropped on the ground?"
The players touched their pockets and shook their heads.
She turned her phone to the table next door, and shook her head over there.
As a result, everyone couldn't help but focus on their mobile phones. This is a very old mobile phone. It is not even a smart phone. It has a lot of wear and paint, and there is an outdated cartoon doll hanging on it, which is dusty.
Gu Shengan: "No one uses this style now, right?"
Zhao Fan also said: "I'm afraid production would have been discontinued long ago."
The players communicated silently, and they all realized that this is probably the key item for the beginning of the game.
Suddenly, the phone, which looked almost impossible to turn on, turned on automatically, so that Tong Qing shook his hand and threw it on the table. After a slow and lagging boot animation, a picture of a girl appeared on the screensaver.
The girl was seventeen or eighteen, dressed in school uniform, with long black hair, and a beautiful face. She was smiling a little shyly. She looked like a relatively introverted person.
Fu Wenbo has been paying attention to the movement of the player's table, and he looked at the phone screen when he saw it. But his face changed a lot when he saw it clearly. He pointed to the phone and said to the other people: "Yes... it's her..."
The other people looked strange when they saw this. They stared at the phone as if they were looking at some scourge.
"she is not… "
"How would it appear here?"
"It has nothing to do with me."
"Impossible, who of you did it..."
Even the old teaching director Yang Degao shook his hand and dropped his chopsticks on the ground.
