"You two shameless... adulterers? Whores... "
—Just now, he ate the most.
A roll of toilet paper flew over and hit him on the head.
Volume 1 The Gap between Illusion and Reality: Chapter 183 Chapter 180 The Calm Before the Storm
The lunch at noon was extremely miserable.
Even that memory only lasted less than five minutes, but even though almost an hour had passed before, everyone except Bai Zhi and Ye Owl still hadn't recovered.
"You actually knew about this a long time ago, right?"
Sitting on the sofa outside the corridor, staring at the only night owl in front of him who had escaped unharmed, Zhenggu Heming had a look of resentment on his face.
"... I think what Black and White said makes sense."
After a moment of wordless silence, Night Owl turned his head with a slightly stiff expression.
"If we players want to live better, exercise like this is a must."
"I know it's necessary, but when someone else is eating, something like this happens suddenly. The food they eat is still... But why can you escape? Where is your exercise? I don't know what it means to share blessings and hardships. Do you think so? He really takes care of you... "
He rolled his eyes and slumped back on the sofa. Zhenggu Heming had a look of despair on his face.
"Anyway, I probably won't have any appetite in the next few days after today... That guy just did it on purpose."
"No, I did it on purpose."
Walking out of the theater carrying a garbage bag, Bai Zhi answered calmly.
"You still want to be a player like this? If you can't even overcome this simplest psychological factor, how are you going to face the endless and bizarre stories that will follow?"
"So if it weren't for the fact that you ate it and watched it, we would have joined forces to beat you up..."
Following Bai Zhi out of the cinema, he rolled his eyes and threw himself on the sofa.
"There really is no comparison between people... Your true identity in the real world is probably a special forces soldier from some army, right? How can you still eat under such circumstances?"
"If you are casually disturbed by external things, you won't survive long when faced with those strange stories."
Then Bai Zhi threw the garbage bag in his hand into the trash can not far away, and clapped his hands slightly.
"There are many forms of ghost stories. Not all ghost stories have physical existence. Some are an entire house, some are an area, and some are even a video tape, a piece of text, or a sentence. You can predict what you will do in the future. What type of ghost stories will we encounter? As the front line of defense against the invasion of ghost stories into our world, we players need to have a mind as strong as the ten thousand-year-old ice crystal on the Ice Throne."
"... Something more specific?"
After thinking for a moment, Zhenggu Heming tentatively spoke.
"My heart is like the Tathagata, and I am as calm as the Tathagata."
With one hand raised in front of him, Bai Zhi had a solemn look on his face.
"Donor, you are obsessed."
"Uh... it does seem to make sense...?"
Meng Qixia, Zhenggu and Mingye Owl looked at each other in confusion.
"He was beating around the bush and said that when we were eating, we were filled with shit, so everything we looked at was shit..."
With the rather speechless voice of Shenwu Tianxie, he was the last one to walk out of the cinema, also holding a garbage bag in his hand.
"Anyway, it depends on how you understand it. If you are willing to understand it this way, it is not impossible."
Shrugging, Bai Zhi turned his head and looked at the other party.
"By the way, why did you come out just now?"
In a sense, the suspicion on the other party has not been cleared away, and as he investigates, the suspicion on Shenwu Tianxie becomes more and more serious.
The unknown attacker who attacked Zhenggu Heming, the strange passage leading to Room 501, the non-existent tuxedo projected in the mirror... these are all conclusive evidences.
"If you didn't come out so early and left all the cleaning inside to me, maybe I would have come out earlier."
Reaching out to rub the corners of his eyes where the bloodshot eyes had not faded much, Shenwu Tianxie replied angrily.
"We have put all our hopes in completing this mission on you. What are your plans next?"
"Go to the mall and continue the lottery. Anyway, if you keep it in your hand, you'll keep it... I remember you lost something at the mall, right?"
As if he thought of something, he turned his head to look at the other person, Bai Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly.
"It's been a day and you still haven't found what you lost?"
"If I could think of what I lost, I would have found it long ago, but the problem is that I couldn't think of it, and when I checked my backpack, I didn't find anything left behind... "
Then he stretched out his hand and pressed his temples. Shenwu Tianxie frowned slightly, but then relaxed quickly.
"But things that can't be remembered are probably not too important and don't need to be taken care of."
"No, I may know what you lost."
After looking at Shen Wu Tianxie up and down, he crossed his hands and Meng Qixia spoke thoughtfully.
"You went to the supermarket at night and lost your stuff when you were fighting with those puppets and dummies, right?"
"Uh... so what?"
"It's very simple, you lost your love for your wife!!"
He sat upright from the sofa, his eyes burning under Mengqi.
"I can imagine the pain in your heart when you killed your beloved wife with your hands, but for the sake of justice, you did not hesitate... Hey, hey, hey, don't leave. Isn't my reasoning correct?"
… … … … … … … … … … … … … …
Like the supermarket, they actually didn't come there too many times. The only serious and careful comprehensive search was done by Shenwu Tianxie and the others when Night Owl was injured. After all, things like those here It can't be put into a backpack, and it can't be taken away after the mission is completed. At best, it can only be an eye candy.
Although most of the items and skills drawn in the Mystery Shop are very deceptive, some are better than nothing. After all, if you don’t use points like points for lottery, what else can you do with them
Everyone's luck today was no better than yesterday. No one drew anything like a skill card again. In less than five minutes, the draw was completed.
As for Bai Zhi and Ye Owl, their points have long been gone.
"Ah... everything is in tatters..."
Zheng Gu Heming, the only rich woman among the crowd, after drawing out all her points, looked at the pile of irreparable tatters in front of her, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly.
She was quite lucky. Among the rags she pulled out, there were some pieces of rare equipment. However, these equipments were basically unusable and could not even be repaired.
"How about selling these to me?"
After squatting down and picking up a few pieces of badly damaged equipment and looking at them for a few times, Bai Zhi raised his head and asked Zhenggu and Ming with seeming interest.
"I'll buy a rare piece of broken equipment for 50 game currency points. What do you think?"
"Uh... what do you want these things for?"
After listening to Bai Zhi's words, Zhenggu Heming couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"It is impossible to use equipment like this that is irreparable even as materials for building equipment. They have been completely scrapped."
"Just tell me directly whether to sell it or not."
Standing up from the ground, Bai Zhi shrugged indifferently.
"But the purchase price is just that, 50 game currency points each. After all, I don't have much surplus game currency."
After a moment of hesitation, Zhenggu Heming nodded.
In fact, these junks are really useless. At most, they can be thrown out to hit people at certain special times. Since the other party wants it and is willing to pay for it, then why not do it
Although she also knows that the other party is willing to pay for these rags that have no value in her opinion, it must be that these rags can exert greater value in the other party's hands, but this kind of thing... what does it have to do with her
Volume One: The Gap between Virtuality and Reality: Chapter 184 Chapter 181 The Lost Things of Shenwu Tianxie
Spending 250 game points, Bai Zhi purchased five pieces of rare-level equipment from Zhenggu Heming.
Equipment like this that is seriously damaged and appears to be irreparable has basically no use. It can be truly said that it takes up space in a backpack.
Among all the people, Zhenggu Heming, who can earn ten points every day, is a well-deserved rich woman, so she also gets the most rags from the mysterious store.
Therefore, Meng Qixia and Shenwu Tianxie made no secret of their envy. Meng Qixia, after clearing her throat, had already gathered around Zhenggu Heming affectionately to sing the legendary Rich Woman. song of…
Seeing Meng Qixia being chased and beaten by Zheng Gu and Ming who were so angry that he picked up a chair, Bai Zhi seriously suspected that the other party had a certain tendency of masochism. He had also said something like "husband or wife" at the dinner table before, but he was beaten by a night owl...
"Huh? Is there something on my face?"
Seeing Bai Zhi suddenly turning his head to look at him, Night Owl reached out and touched his cheek with some confusion.
"No, it's nothing."
Bai Zhi turned his head as if nothing had happened and looked inside the mysterious store.
In the past, he also spent his points to draw prizes here, but the ones he drew were all useless props or common-level equipment, but none of the rare-level equipment.
He did draw one of the skill cards, but it turned out to be the most deceptive power bank-type skill [Savior] that added blood to the opponent and charged it up...
As Shenwu Tianxie walked out of the mysterious store last, this trip to the mysterious store came to an end, and the current time was only around two o'clock in the afternoon.
Because of the painful experience at noon, no one wanted to go back to the entertainment area for a while, because as soon as they passed the movie theater, they would involuntarily think of what happened at noon and cause nausea... Although the contents of their stomachs Already vomited out.
However, in the super mall, there is naturally a place to rest. However, since there are only a few of them in the entire Nuo Da mall, plus those mannequins with exposed bones, the atmosphere here is temporarily tense. The inside looks a little weird.
It's just that in the past few days, everyone has experienced a lot more or less, and even the most timid night owl has not expressed any discomfort with this environment.
Among the people, they were either lying on the sofa to rest like Shen Wu Tianxie, or they were looking through the books borrowed from the library like night owls. Everything seemed unusually calm and peaceful.
It's just that under this seemingly calm environment, there is a fierce storm surging...
"Let's play cards!!"
After lying on the sofa for a while, Meng Qi suddenly sat up, unable to calm down.
"Don't you think this atmosphere is too boring? I remember there is mahjong in the entertainment industry. How about we play mahjong!?"
"Okay, bring me a bottle of herbal tea by the way."
The book in his hand turned to a new page, and Bai Zhi answered without raising his head.
"I want orange juice... forget it, let's just have Coke."
Glancing at someone next to him, the corner of the night owl's mouth twitched slightly.
"Two apples thank you."
Zheng Gu and Ming nodded slightly reservedly.
"Bring me a fruit plate, and bring me a few bottles of wine."
One person occupied a sofa, turned over, and Shenwu Tianxie yawned.
"… Enough."
Listening to other people's requests one after another, Mengqi felt like he was back in college when he left the dormitory and saw the animals calling him daddy one after another in order to be allowed to bring food. …
"The idiom is to pick up the dragon. Whoever can't catch it should go and get it. This is very reasonable."
Bai Zhi closed the book in his hand.
"Since you brought up this proposal, let's start with you first and proceed one by one in clockwise order."
"Idiom Solitaire..."
Glancing at Bai Zhi who was right next to him, Meng Qi's face suddenly turned dark.
"Can I apply to change my location?"
"sure."
Bai Zhi stood up from the sofa indifferently, and changed positions with Ye Owl.
"Is this okay?"
“… share the joys and sorrows.”
"Speaking with sincerity."
"Heart to heart."
“Adapt measures to local conditions.”
"Yi..."
