Star Trace Gate

Chapter 54

The next day, at half past nine in the morning.

It has been less than twelve hours since Ren Ye entered the Star Gate again.

"Get up and go buy groceries with me."

Dad's shouting like a broken gong resounded in the living room. Ren also opened his sore eyes and glanced at the dazzling sunshine outside the window as a habit.

The warm breeze is blowing, the sun is shining, and it’s another good day.

After stretching on the bed, Ren also yawned and got out of bed, preparing to go to the bathroom to wash up.

"brush!"

Ren Qingning walked out of the next room like a ghost, wearing very cartoon pajamas, bare feet, and her hair was as arched as a chicken coop: "I'll use it first, you get in line."

"Remember to flush." ​​Ren Ye leaned his shoulder against the door frame and reminded him half asleep.

"I won't rush you. You'll stink to death." Ren Qingning quarreled with him out of habit and walked into the bathroom while rubbing his eyes.

In the kitchen, the father came over with a bowl of turtle soup and ordered Ren Ye concisely: "It's done."

"...I told Lao Huang and the others to come home for dinner today." Ren also reached out to take it and drank up the turtle soup in one breath.

The soup flowed through his throat and moistened his esophagus. In just a moment, Ren felt a sense of comfort all over his body.

"Pack it up, let's go shopping together." Dad took the soup bowl with his big oily hands, still cherishing his words like gold, and still looking dull.

This whole morning, time seemed to go back a few years ago, back to my childhood.

My sister was fighting to use the bathroom, my father was making breakfast in the kitchen, and Ren was standing in line in the living room, sleepy.

This familiar feeling is so good.

About twenty minutes later, the brother and sister finished washing, followed their father downstairs, and went to the small market next to them to buy vegetables.

The Haohua Farmers Market looks just like what Ren Ye remembered. There is dirty water everywhere on the ground, the smell of salty seafood is in the air, the surrounding walls are old, and the ceiling is open, allowing direct sunlight to be seen.

How many years have passed, this place is still the same, nothing has changed.

Ren Qingning was wearing a pair of hot pants, with her long legs exposed, and a small vegetable basket hanging on her slender arms. She was bargaining with the uncle and aunt.

Not far away, Dad bought some pork ribs and walked side by side with Ren.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask you." Ren Ye suddenly remembered something and asked smoothly: "How did you revise the ancient novel you and the editor worked on? Tell me about it."

Ren Daguo was startled for a moment and replied softly: "The subsequent plot has been greatly changed... I increased the emotional output and changed it into a story about father's love. Lao Xu and I chatted, and we both thought that this plot would definitely be a hit. .”

Ren also blinked: "The direction and setting of the subsequent plot have been changed?"

"Yeah." Dad nodded while holding his glasses: "Everything has been changed. Overturn and rewrite."

"Oh." Ren Ye replied with a smile: "Then I wish you to become a god soon and never hit the streets again!"

The father replied proudly: "Becoming a god is certain. If your father has this strength, it is just a matter of the length of time... maybe sixty years old, maybe eighty years old."

"Oh, I believe it."

As soon as the words fell, the father and son chased Ren Qingning.

In fact, after Dad was tested by the liar, Ren no longer doubted that he was related to the word "player". After all, people who watch the year are professionals. The reason why he asked his father about the plot direction was purely out of curiosity.

It turns out that the context of the two stories is too similar, and he is about to enter the Star Gate again, so I want to ask my father about the plot changes later to see if the "inspirations" of both parties will continue to collide.

But unexpectedly, Dad and Editor Xu had already changed the story drastically.

That's right. It's normal for a car to crash due to accidental inspiration, but if it keeps crashing, it's a supernatural event.

……

It was almost noon, and a family of three returned after shopping for groceries.

Dad went to the kitchen and got busy, while Ren followed his sister into the room to play games.

This is also a repertoire in the family. Every time during the holidays and family reunions, the father prepares a table of delicious food, while the brother and sister hide in the house, playing and waiting.

The two of them were playing a cooperative stand-alone game on a not-so-big monitor, connected to the PS5, with a lot of snacks and Fat House Happy Water beside them.

Ren Qingning's pretty face faced the sun, her expression stagnant, her body swaying slightly from side to side as the game controller was operated, as if her whole body was exerting force: "Hey, hey... don't be rash yet, wait a moment... !”

"What are you doing whining? Just do it together and that's it." Ren Ye beat him so hard that his forehead was sweating, and he kept urging: "You'll jump in a while, I'll control the BOSS, and you'll be in full swing."

"What the hell!" Ren Qingning muttered dissatisfiedly: "To play games, you have to use your brain! Rules, do you understand the rules?!"

"Quick, quick... give me more blood." Ren was also anxious.

"What the hell, I'm out of mana. You're such an idiot! It's over, it's over...!"

"brush!"

While the two were shouting, the monitor screen went black and both of them hung up.

"Oh!"

Ren Qingning had a bad temper and was so angry that he raised his long legs and kicked Ren Ye in the face: "Why don't you use your brain? You're so stupid that you're drooling... This is a mechanical game, okay? You have to read it thoroughly. Rules, before you understand the rules, being reckless is useless. The BOSS’s attributes are crushing, do you understand?”

"Gudong!"

Ren Ye lay on his back on the ground, threw away the handle, and started to play with it: "Some of its rules are not clear. It's a mistake to read."

"fool!"

Ren Qingning picked up Feizhai Happy Water and took a sip. Although her academic performance was not good, she was a good teacher: "It may take five or six years for a game company to develop a game. How could it not be clear?! It's you! I was careless and didn't find the rules in the details... If you want to play any game well, you don't play it, but try to figure out the designer's ideas. Do you understand?"

"Guess the designer's thinking?"

When she said this, Ren suddenly thought of Star Gate. There must be a designer for this surreal "large-scale magical game"...: "What you said makes some sense, but not much."

"Hey, let's see my sister clear the level by herself." Ren Qingning snorted and continued to play with concentration.

"Tap!"

There was a sound of footsteps and Dad walked in from outside: "The fish is steamed. I have something to do and I want to trouble you two."

"What?" Ren also turned around.

"Brush, brush!"

The father took two pages of manuscript paper, handed them to the two brothers and sisters respectively, and said with a smile: "Didn't I change the ancient-themed novel into a story about father's love? After so many years, I have worked hard to write it You raised me...I really want to hear what image I have in your mind, and how you feel about your father. Let's talk about it first, I can make suggestions and criticize...but I can also hit people."

"Don't write." Ren Qingning pouted: "Can these thoughts be written on paper? Can the thoughts written down be the true thoughts in my heart?"

"There will be a prize for collecting inspiration, one thousand words and five hundred." Dad offered the price.

"Whoosh!"

Without saying a word, Ren Qingning took the manuscript paper and placed it on Bai Nen's lap: "I'll take over this job."

"I have time to write." Ren Ye replied lazily.

It is not uncommon for my father to do this. In the past, he often asked his brother and sister for their writing opinions, so he gave very perfunctory answers.

"One week, give it to me within one week." Dad wiped his oily palms: "Okay, you can play. Ren Ye, call your colleagues and ask them how long it will take to arrive."

"it is good."

Ren Ye answered very perfunctorily every time, but he would always do what his father said.

Writing is a very lonely job, especially when there are few readers, and you will urgently need the approval of others. Ren also collected the manuscript paper, folded it and put it in his pocket, and stood up to make a call to Lao Huang and others.

"Ding dong!"

Just then, the doorbell rang.

"It seems to be here." Ren Ye stood up suddenly, ran to the living room, and opened the door.

"I came in a hurry, I didn't bring anything, it's just a trivial matter." Lao Huang held up some gifts and handed them to Ren Ye with bared teeth.

"I'm very poor, don't mind." Gu Nian handed over a shoulder and neck massager. Although it was not an expensive gift, it could be seen that she was very attentive. She knew that her father had to work at his desk for a long time and his shoulders and neck were not good.

Ren Ye looked at the long legs and thought to himself that this woman was kind to him and he could have a "deep relationship" with her.

"I brought two pairs of medicines to ensure that after uncle takes them..." Xu Peng held up two pairs of Chinese medicines that he didn't know what they were made of, and said in a naive tone: "Eat well, these two pictures are free, but later……."

People always choose auspicious ones to buy when giving gifts. Xu Peng gives gifts of traditional Chinese medicine. What a talented person he is.

"Ha, I will buy some quick-acting heart-saving pills some other day and deliver them to my uncle and aunt." Ren Ye answered politely and greeted everyone: "Come on, come in."

"Hi there."

Ren Qingning ran out of the house and said hello to everyone.

"well."

The three of them walked into the house and chatted with their father and sister.

……

Shanghai, Duoduo's pet paradise.

Yan Duoduo sat on the wicker chair, gently put down the phone, and muttered with a calm expression: "You really have no sense, why don't you invite me to dinner?!"

After saying that, he turned his attention to Tang Feng sitting on the sofa. This guy just arrived in Shanghai, wearing a very luxurious custom-made suit and a watch worth at least hundreds of thousands on his wrist.

If you are forced to expose yourself, you need to suppress it.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Tang Feng's eyes were full of dissatisfaction and defiance.

Yan Duoduo slowly withdrew his gaze and didn't say anything more. He just threw the information on the table over: "Take a look."

"Oh."

Tang Feng nodded, followed Yan Duoduo's example, crossed his legs, lowered his head and began to scan the Qingliang Mansion's information.

About five minutes later, Tang Feng raised his head in surprise and asked in disbelief: "The identity tag you want to give me is a singer, a female? You want me to play a woman?!"

Yan Duoduo seemed to look at him calmly, but she was still worried about the other party's resistance: "Do you have any objections?"

"I have no objection, I'm just very excited!" Tang Feng's eyes brightened: "It's so exciting!!!"
