[Inferior Specter Ring 003 (one star)]
[Price: 1 yuan]
[Description: The producer used very inferior technology to imprison the Specter in the ring, which can make the Specter obedient in a short period of time and possess the power of a two-star ghost weapon. ]
[Restriction: Specter that is forcibly imprisoned has a strong aggressiveness, and will retaliate against the holder after being driven for the second time. It is an inferior product with great side effects. ]
After Su Zimo read the remarks on the faded ring on the third uncle Sukun's hand, his eyes fell on the price of only "1 yuan", and the column of "restrictions" was not good-looking. Su Zimo suddenly felt that if there really was a mysterious system in his glasses, he might be using this price to dislike this "inferior Specter Ring".
After all, the price of an ordinary one-star ghost weapon starts at ten yuan.
"It's a very beautiful ring." Su Zimo glanced at the slender third uncle Sukun. In fact, apart from being extremely thin, Sukun had no flaws in his appearance, but perhaps it was because his eyes were too gloomy and he was once caught by a certain The gossip tabloids say that looks will be ignored because of temperament.
It is precisely because of this dark history that Su Kun is particularly addicted to jewelry and luxury auction activities. He also likes to adorn himself with jewels when he appears in front of the camera, but he will look more simple when he goes home.
"This is an antique ring that your third uncle bought at a high price. Even if Patriarch Su opens his mouth, he probably won't give it to you." The second uncle, Su Duan, is the largest in the Su family, and he is also the person who likes to attend the reception the most in the Su family. .
But maybe it's because of his short temper. Those so-called high-class people who wear dresses, hold red wine and dance to classical music and think they are elegant don't like this second master of the Su family, even if he is the second master of the Su family. No one likes a drunk guest who stomps on the piano and goes crazy.
Therefore, Su Duan is only popular with some upstarts and dog-meat friends most of the time, and the so-called receptions he attended are often described by Mr. Su Heng as "smoky and messy".
Someone once said that Mr. Su Heng has been a hero in the shopping mall all his life. One of the biggest omissions is that he completely neglected the growth of his four sons after the death of the old lady, and completely transferred the pain of loss to his dedication to his career. The various industries under the group have continued to expand, allowing the Su family to secure the position of the first family.
But when the old man Su Heng came back to his senses and wanted to turn around to look at his four sons, he found that the eldest son had become a playboy, the second son had become a drunkard, the third son had a crooked way, and the fourth son was reluctant to write and go into business. .
But these have nothing to do with Su Zimo. As long as there is no real messenger in the Su family who was involved in the car accident, Su Zimo will continue this blood connection, as long as there is no messenger in the original car accident...
"It's really a beautiful ring." Su Zimo nodded with a smile, "It just doesn't match the temperament of the third uncle, and it looks a little awkward. The agate ring that the third uncle wore when we met last time is very beautiful."
"The ability of this ring... Cough, you don't understand the value of this ring. Ten agate rings are not as valuable as this one." Talking about his own collection, Su Kun's tone was not so piercing. , "This is a magical treasure. It is a rare item that ordinary people can't collect. It's just one piece. It took a lot of money to get it."
Except for the fourth uncle Su Ni, each of the four sons of the Su family has a lucrative business in their name, so it must be a huge expenditure to make Su Kun say "a lot of money".
In addition, Su Zimo looked at the ring called "Inferior Specter Ring 003", and felt that there were at least two rings like it, and it should not be called a masterpiece.
Most importantly, Su Zimo felt that this ring was not brought out by Su Kun from the nightmare world. He should not even be an experiencer, but someone who got these unstable ghost weapons ignored their bad side effects. , and sell it directly to those rich and curious minds at a terrifyingly high price.
Su Kun is one of those who take advantage of it.
"Since it's a treasure, I think it's better to lock it in the safe. After all, the third uncle still looks better with that agate ring. Don't wear this ring often." Su Zimo reminded secretly.
"It doesn't make sense with an ordinary person like you." Su Kun touched the ring on his hand preciously, sneered, got up from the sofa and walked towards the dining table, "Don't you want to eat? You have to let a lawyer check it, right? "
"Where are Zixiang, Zilan, and Zihui?" Su Zimo looked around the hall, but did not find the three children of the second and third uncles.
Su Zixiang and Su Zilan from the second uncle's family are a brother and sister five years apart. The elder brother is a junior this year, and the younger sister should have just started high school. Su Zixiang and Su Zimo were only a few months apart before, but at the funeral of Mr. Su before, Su Zimo didn't even see this cousin attend.
Su Zihui is the daughter of the third uncle's family, the only seedling. It is said that she and Su Zilan are still classmates, because Su Kun's wife is also a famous family, so even if he has the heart, he can't continue to spread the branches.
In fact, the Su family did not have the habit of assigning one character in the name of the next generation according to the genealogy, but perhaps it was because Mr. Su chose the name "Zimo" for the eldest grandson, so that the second and third children also chose the name for their own children. With similar names, only the fourth child, who has always excluded himself, is more casual.
"I specifically consulted a lawyer before, and it doesn't matter if the juniors like Huihui can't find time to attend the dinner party." Su Gan, who came out of the rest area, helped explain, "I originally wanted Xiangxiang to attend, but he always I went to college abroad and haven't come back for a long time."
"So did Zixiang go to college abroad?" Su Zimo didn't know too many things. After regaining control of his body, he hadn't even left Shoushan where the main residence of the Su family is located—if he didn't pass the "An Yu Yi corner" If you go to Jiangdu.
"Zixiang is just unlucky. He was born a few months later than you, so he can only work hard to study finance abroad, saying that he wants to start from scratch like his great-grandfather grandpa." Su Kun's words now have a thorn again, "No. You are as relaxed as Zimo, the old man has prepared everything for you."
"Crack!" Su Duan, who had just sat down at the table, suddenly slapped his chopsticks on the table. The Su family's habit of eating is still traditional Chinese food, and they never liked Western-style knives and forks. For you, no matter how good you are, you are still my son, don't think that you two have a good relationship and you can take me seriously."
Su Duan's tone was like a cannonball. After sitting down on the side closest to the main seat, he glanced at Su Kun, and while playing with the tableware vigorously, he said: "Anyway, our task is to finish this meal, After eating, go home."
"You care about your son just like the old man used to, don't ask about the four words, can't I be the uncle's caretaker?" Su Kun sneered, "With you as an example, Zixiang can be admitted abroad by his own ability. The famous university is also a miracle, much better than the sons of other noble families who did nothing and took over the family business without even passing the college entrance examination."
"Zimo, uncle is not talking about you, of course, he is just talking about the sons of other noble families." Su Kun also picked up the wine glass and gave a salute to the master.
"Actually, I think my daughter is pretty good too." Su Gan put on a heartless look again, and said with a smile, "I have a daughter who is studying in Jiangdu, and she speaks softly and softly, Dad. Long, father is short, when it's cold, let's wear more clothes, when it's hot, let's drink more water, it's really a sweet little padded jacket."
"… "
Immediately, the entire dining table was quiet, and even Butler Mu, who was originally standing by the side, found something to do for himself, turned around and sneaked back into the kitchen.
Those "illegitimate daughters" of Su Qian are considered an open "secret" of the Su family.
If one of his "illegitimate daughters" has already gone to college, isn't it that Su Zimo's mother had it before she died
"Su Gan, you really dare to put the romantic account outside at the family banquet." Su Duan gave Su Gan a thumbs up inexplicably, "You are indeed my eldest brother when it comes to cuckolding your wife."
"What nonsense are you talking about? You just gave your wife a cuckold!" Su Gan glanced back, "If I dare to give my wife a cuckold, she will have to climb out of hell and kill me!"
"you… "
Su Qian's cruel words ended another topic at the family banquet.
In fact, this is also one of the reasons why Su Zimo doesn't understand this father. He always said readily that he has several daughters, and he always said that he would introduce his sisters to Su Zimo. But Su Gan was always too open about this matter, and every time he asked carefully, it made people think that he never regretted his deceased wife, nor the son left by his deceased wife, so the whole thing was very strange.
It is said to be a family banquet, but the Su family's family banquet may be the most silent in the eyes of others. During the period, everyone ate the food in front of them without saying a word, and there were even lawyers during the period. Came in and recorded a few minutes of video.
No family feast feeling.
It wasn't until everyone finished their meal and got up from the dining table one after another that Su Kun suddenly smiled and said to Su Zimo, "Zimo, Zixiang, he will soon finish his studies abroad ahead of schedule. I heard that he is still good. He has published several papers in his magazine, so I plan to come and help my family’s business when I come back, and Zimo, for the sake of the second and third uncles, will help you open a door for your brother.”
"Zixiang is graduating? Isn't he a junior? Why don't I know about this?" Su Duan's eyes widened, and the yellow wine in his hand dripped on his belly.
"I called him before to ask him what else he was missing, so he told me by the way." Su Kun gave Su Duan a look, then turned to look at Su Zimo, "Zimo, this should be Is it a trivial matter? After all, you and Zixiang played together from childhood to adulthood. Although Zixiang went to college and you became the head of the Su family, your relationship should still be there since childhood."
"I'm sorry, second uncle, third uncle, my brother manages the company's affairs this year. I can help and ask." The smile on Su Zimo's face was still the same, and it didn't seem to be affected in any way.
"Then I'll trouble the Su family." Su Kun said, and turned to leave the table together with Su Duan, even in a voice that everyone could hear, pretending to whisper, "Second brother, if you don't know this, I thought that Su Hewen was from the Su family, but your family Su Zixiang seems to have brought him from outside."
"Shut up!" Su Duan didn't sing with Su Kun this time, but stared at Su Kun with fierce eyes, "If you don't talk, no one will treat you as dumb. You don't need to worry about Su Zixiang's affairs in the future!"
"I really don't know how your pig gave birth to a son like Zixiang." Seeing Su Duan leaving alone, Su Kun couldn't help muttering.
Although it was a strange family banquet, the calm in the strangeness was also expected by Su Zimo. After all, this is only the first family banquet this year, and the Su family's changes are still in many media and aristocratic families. Under the watchful eyes, even if someone wanted to toss out something, they would not choose to jump out at such a time.
But the ring on Su Kun's finger still made Su Zimo more vigilant.
In Su Zimo's feeling before, the nightmare world is the nightmare world, and the real world is the real world. But after seeing the ring, Su Zimo suddenly realized that the intersection between reality and nightmares is actually much more frequent than he thought.
After returning to the room on the second floor after finishing the day's affairs, Su Zimo walked to the desk, turned on the newly installed desktop computer, and then entered a search engine interface that looked the most familiar, and typed in "Nightmare World" four Character.
After a few seconds, many different contents appeared on the computer, most of which were information that was useless to Su Zimo, but after browsing a few pages, Su Zimo found a small number of self-proclaimed A post by someone from "Nightmare World Trainer".
Most of these posts introduce the existence of the nightmare world and what the trainees need to do, but the things mentioned are extremely introductory, such as posts by newcomers who have just come into contact with the nightmare world.
There are not many replies to this type of post. Most of them regard "Nightmare World" as the imagination of the poster, and even think that the content of the post is the outline of an unpublished novel. In addition, most of the posters have disappeared. Posts like this It didn't make much waves.
Su Zimo browsed the Internet for a long time without much gain, but he felt that the information on the surface was nothing, and there must be a lot of information exchange and props in the "nightmare world" going on secretly. Buying and selling, it's just that he can't get in touch now.
For example, the "Dawning" organization I heard about before seems to have their own internal communication platform.
Turning his head to glance at the night outside the window, Su Zimo browsed the web page for a while, which could help him understand more quickly what had happened in the past four years.
When Su Zimo got up from the desk, the forty-eight-hour cooldown time for entering the nightmare world had passed, so he turned off the lights in the bedroom, opened the door behind him, and retreated into the "comfortable corner".
Because of the closure of the store, the "Satisfaction in a Corner" store was very quiet, and both Peng Peng and Ghost Umbrella returned to their own bodies and fell into a kind of self-dormancy.
In Ghost Umbrella's words, although he is stronger than Peng Peng, Li Gui keeps showing his body in "being in a corner", as if human beings are moving forward under ten times the gravity environment, and occasionally they have to change back. Rest awhile.
This is also the reason why Su Zimo decided to close the store occasionally.
However, Su Zimo is also considering switching the time of closing and opening the store, because he always feels that "being in a corner" seems to be more suitable for opening at night than during the day.
Thinking like this, Su Zimo picked up the backpack behind the counter, made sure that the metal pens and chocolates and other snacks were ready, then brought two bottles of Ghost Umbrella's special flower and fruit tea, and was ready to go to the next Nightmare World to stock up. .
But after thinking about it, Su Zimo still went back and stuffed the long-handled black umbrella into his hiking bag. He was not afraid of those brain-consuming nightmare worlds, but he was a little worried that he would need to use force to clear the level. In the nightmare world, the intensity of the evil spirits in those worlds is probably more terrifying than the last time.
Although I don't know what special abilities Ghost Umbrella has other than talking nonsense and making tea, Su Zimo thinks that he should always be useful.
Looking back at the shelves that made people feel empty because of the scarcity of goods, Su Zimo encouraged himself, opened the side door of the store without hesitation and walked in.
[Tonight, come to my house for a ghost story convention? ]
…
[When are you coming, I have been waiting for you for a long time. ]
When Su Zimo opened his eyes, he found himself standing in the bathroom of an unfamiliar apartment. In front of him was a half-length dressing mirror. The cold white light reflected Su Zimo in the mirror too pale.
He blinked, and out of the corner of his eyes seemed to see something passing through the mirror, but when he turned to look around, he found that the entire bathroom was empty and nothing.
The door of the bathroom was half-closed and not locked, which meant that Su Zimo could leave the bathroom with only him as long as he stretched out his hand and pushed it.
But what will his identity be after he goes out this time
Su Zimo didn't think much about it, because there seemed to be no second choice other than going out.
"Squeak."
The door in the nightmare world always seems to have a feeling of being stuck, as if no one has touched it for a long time, so every time it is opened, it makes an unpleasant creaking sound.
After walking out of the bathroom, Su Zimo found that he was indeed in an ordinary-looking apartment, with several closed doors in the living room and balcony.
It was still night, and three strangers were already standing in the lit living room.
They stood against the wall and looked at each other with their eyes. After seeing Su Zimo come out of the bathroom, everyone's body instantly tense, and they didn't breathe a sigh of relief until they saw Su Zimo clearly.
"There are only four practitioners in total, and this time our task should be easy."
Su Zimo also observed the three people in the hall, and found that the practitioners who participated in this nightmare world were all young, and they all carried a bookishness that had never been baptized in society.
"Try not to talk, everyone. Be quiet." A girl with delicate makeup pointed in the direction of the balcony, and then made a booing gesture to Su Zimo and the others.
Su Zimo looked at the balcony subconsciously, and then found two figures sitting there with their backs to them, motionless.
