The Trial Game of Life

229 Chapter 2 The Love between Humans and Ghosts

There is a countdown to vote and a time limit of 3 minutes, which does not allow players to think too much.Although the non-participating players are also curious about the fate of the participating players, they dare not say that it has nothing to do with them, but from the plot outline given by the three cards, they can't judge which is good or bad at all. Choose blindly.

Soon, the results will be out.

"Clang clang clang clang!" The clown raised his hand and pulled out a card from the void, took a closer look, showing an exaggerated expression of surprise, "I actually cast this card, it seems that you guys have very special preferences! This The plot is a big challenge for our contestants, let us wait and see whether they can successfully complete the challenge!"

In a word, everyone's appetite was whetted.The clown didn't have much ink, and threw the card back into the sky with his hands, only to see that the card was shining brightly, and the clown opened his hands and announced loudly: "The first scene of the large-scale situational reality show "The Love of Ghosts": The golden wind and the jade dew will meet!"

After the words fell, countless golden light spots fell from the card, like a bright rain of light, one after another.As soon as everyone was attracted by it, they found that the surrounding scenes began to change drastically.

Halos of light passed over the long black stone street under the feet of the people and the surrounding buildings. Wherever they went, it was as if a magic spell had been cast by the heavens.

In the blink of an eye, everyone came from the magical Eternal Night City to the ancient times.

"My god, this is really a large-scale situational reality show..." The players complained involuntarily, followed Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo to leave Chi Yan in the alien space, and couldn't hold back the bewilderment and excitement in their hearts. Said: "I know, I know! What kind of immersive experience is this? Evernight City is too advanced with the times, right?"

Qian Wei: "Amazing IMAX."

Peng Mingfan: "IMAX is a movie projection system."

Qian Wei: "Oh, it doesn't matter!"

Chi Yan couldn't help looking around. They were standing on the roof of the hotel just now. When the scene changed, the hotel became an ancient inn.He asked, "What dynasty is this? The Tang Dynasty?"

Peng Mingfan pushed his glasses, "Song. Most of those female NPCs are wearing gowns, and Qin Guan, the author of 'Golden Wind and Jade Dew' comes from the Northern Song Dynasty."

It was only then that Chi Yan and Qian Wei discovered that all the NPCs in the celebration had changed into ancient costumes at the moment, no, not only them, but all the contestants also changed their costumes.

Only the audience remains the same.

"Where's my brother? Where did my brother go?" Chi Yan remembered his dear brother Tang Cuo, and hurriedly looked for someone everywhere.Yan Yun and Leng Miao also temporarily left the alien space when the voting began, but they were obviously not within the care of the trio.

Peng Mingfan was the first to spot Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng, and pointed forward, "It's there."

There is a small wooden bridge [-] meters away. At this time, the sun is just right and the stream is flowing under the bridge. It is a good time to meet each other.

Such reunions are happening all over Eternal Night City. The task wall in the game lobby has become a real-time refreshed program data station. It currently shows that 67234 players have participated in the game.

Nearly [-] players were put into the scene of the show nearby, some met on the bridge, some met under the tree, and some met the moment the curtain of the carriage was lifted.A red thread leads them, so that all the audience can clearly see who should be in the same team with whom, except for the contestants themselves.

The first act, "Golden Wind and Jade Dew Meet".

"You are..." Jin Cheng looked at the person walking towards him, clearly not knowing him, but felt a trace of familiarity from his eyebrows and eyes.

It was a very upright and handsome face, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, a straight nose, a high ponytail, exposed forehead, and a strand of broken hair blowing across the cheeks with the breeze, completely in line with the traditional Chinese aesthetic concept of beauty. Man's request.But his attire is not so traditional. He is wearing a black uniform with narrow sleeves and a slim fit. There is a long knife around his waist. The most important thing is a pair of earrings hanging from his ears. The irregular black gemstones are no bigger than soybeans. Generous, but hard to look away.

This handsome guy took a look at Jin Cheng and walked straight past him.

Jin Cheng immediately turned around and strode after him, reached out and grabbed his arm, and asked, "Have I seen you?"

Tang Cuo turned his head and looked at him in a crimson official uniform. For a moment, he wondered whether he was an NPC or a player.But the NPC shouldn't have such a scar on his face, which looks too arrogant.

But Tang Cuo didn't have time to talk to him at the moment, "Let go."

Jin Cheng: "Why?"

Tang Cuo: "You're blocking me."

Jin Cheng: "Huh?"

Seeing that he was puzzled, Tang Cuo suddenly became a little angry.He felt that such a conversation should not have happened, but he couldn't explain why, so he broke Jin Cheng away with all his strength.

He was as light as a swallow, jumped onto the railing, and after a few ups and downs, he arrived under the willow tree by the bridge.Jin Cheng stared at him blankly, still maintaining the movement of reaching out, a willow leaf was blown by the wind, and fell lightly on his palm.

This feeling is a little strange.

Tang Cuo was going to avoid the sun. Although he had just received the evil ghost badge not long ago, he still felt a little uncomfortable when he was directly exposed to the sun.In his mind, he clearly remembered about the game "The Love Between Humans and Ghosts", including the matter about the badge of evil spirits and about Lin Yandong, but he didn't know the man just now.

Is that the teammate assigned by the system?But which player would ask "Have I met you" as soon as he came up, as if a straight man struck up a conversation.

The man came after him again, leaned on the railing of the bridge, looked down at him, and asked, "What's your name?"

Tang Cuo: "?"

Jin Cheng: "My name is Jin Cheng."

Tang Cuo: "."

Jin Cheng: "Shall we form a team?"

"What are they doing???" Chi Yan lay in front of the window of a bookstore in the back, looking confused.He looked at Qian Wei, who was also confused.

The two looked at Peng Mingfan again. Peng Mingfan pushed his glasses and said, "It looks like they don't know each other."

Qian Wei quickly pushed Chi Yan, "Hurry up and try."

Chi Yan said "ohhh" a few times, put his hands around his mouth in the shape of a trumpet, and shouted: "Brother, brother! Look here!"

But neither Tang Cuo nor Jin Cheng responded, and the other contestants around did not seem to hear their voices, only the NPC and the audience cast their eyes.

Qian Wei spread his hands, "This time we are really an audience, and we just keep watching? Can't do anything?"

Peng Mingfan was thoughtful, and after a while, he turned and walked to the owner of the book shop, and chatted with him.The owner of the book shop talked a lot with him, and finally told him: "Master Lin's family ordered a copy of "The Jade Guanyin" from me, and made an appointment to pick it up today, but it's over. It's noon, and I don't see anyone. If you are willing to run for me, the reward will be good, how about it?"

Hearing this, Peng Mingfan turned his head to look at Qian Wei and Chi Yan.Both of them instantly understood that the celebration was still going on, but the stage was changed from Eternal Night City to Kaifeng Mansion, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty.

At this time, Yan Yun and Leng Miao were also going through the same thing as Tang Cuo and Jin Cheng.

Leng Miao was sitting in the sedan chair, but he had already forgotten the existence of Yan Yun, his memory had been modified, and he only remembered that he was participating in the game alone, and this game required two people to form a team, so he needed to find a teammate.

He looked down and saw the clothes on his body, the purple brocade robe, which looked like an official uniform, but Leng Miao was not familiar with the field of history and culture, so apart from seeing that it was an official uniform, he couldn't tell much about it.

He still has a fan in his hand, and the fan, in Leng Miao's view, is purely pretentious.For example, the way he conveniently used the fan to open the car curtain at this moment made him feel as if he was possessed by an ancient person, and he had to carry it for everything.

When the curtain was opened, the sedan chair also stopped, and there was a traffic jam ahead.The weather is hot and people are restless, and it seems that it will be difficult for a while.

There was a peddler on the side of the road beside the sedan chair, sitting under the eaves, dressed like an ordinary peddler, but with an extraordinary bearing.He was carrying two big wooden boxes, and he seemed to be selling along the street. There were several small signs hanging on the wooden boxes, which read: lychee paste, perilla drink, deer pear syrup, sweet bean soup, etc. It should be a seller of cold water.

Before he sold it, he drank it himself.Seeing that he wants to drink this and that, he looks like he has never seen the world, no doubt he is a player.

The salesman raised his head and met Shang Leng Miao's gaze, then he raised his spoon and asked with a smile, "Master, would you like a bowl?"

Other people's encounters were not as smooth as theirs.

Whether it is Tang Cuo or Yan Yun, it didn't take long to receive the badge, and the impact was small.But in Eternal Night City, there are many people who have received badges from the beginning, who are at the stage of becoming ghosts or have already turned into ghosts, and as soon as they are exposed to the sun, they flee in embarrassment.

Many people were separated from their companions on the way to escape. Because of the loss of memory, they could not see the existence of the red line, so they might just pass by.

There are also some who, even if they meet face to face, are wary and suspicious of each other for various reasons.

Only the audience held the perspective of God and clearly saw the red lines on the wrists of the contestants.In less than 10 minutes, these red lines were stretched and intersected with each other as the players moved around, making a mess.

"How do you play this game? That's not the point of messing around with mandarin ducks, is it?"

"I can't fucking tell who is on the same team as who!"

"What if you find the wrong teammate? You won't end up hacking your teammate to death, right?"

The audience talked a lot, and everyone stopped doing the celebration games, especially when the names of Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo were mentioned, they were even more unwilling to fight.

A well-known couple in Eternal Night City turned into strangers, fought and turned against each other.

Of course, the following eight characters are the best wishes of the players deep in their hearts, and when the players in Area C found that Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo were still inseparable even if they didn't know each other, they all put on indifferent faces .

And at this moment, the clown's voice finally came again.

"Have you all found your teammates? Hurry up, there are only 10 minutes before the night comes. The first act "Golden Wind and Jade Dew Meet" is divided into literary and military combat, and the daytime mode is Wendou: Flying Flower Order. The night mode is Wudou: Skeleton Illusion.”

"Do you still remember the basic rules displayed on the big screen before? Ghosts are afraid of light, people are afraid of the dark, and teammates share their lives. Players must protect their teammates while playing the game."

"In 10 minutes, the fighting will start, and Wendou will follow. Players, please get ready."

The rules of Eternal Night City are always like this, they say half and keep half, and never let you know carefully.The players did not dare to be negligent, and hurriedly determined their teammates within 10 minutes, which made the audience anxious.

Wrong, at least half of the people are looking for the wrong one!

But the night came as expected, and the light was instantly deprived, replaced by white paper lanterns lit in front of every house.Pale candlelight, slightly gloomy.

Then an old and hoarse man's voice sounded. He drew his tone and seemed to be beating a gong in his hand, singing: "There is no skin or flesh, and there is a burden of pain and sorrow. The puppet also pulled the silk thread, looking for A petty appearance teases the enemy. If you see through a shame, then you are not ashamed? You have been alone since Wuli."

The voice was up and down, but the sound of the gong seemed to be drunk, scattered and disorderly.The rough voice at the end seemed to be laughing, and the laughter echoed in the night sky of the Northern Song Dynasty, like a ghost parading in the night, which aroused goosebumps on one's arms.

Tang Cuo was not afraid of ghosts, so he listened carefully.But just when the laughter seemed to spread from the east to the west, and then hit the wall back from the west, he caught a glimpse of a skeleton popping out from behind Jin Cheng.

The skeleton grinned and tilted its head, looking funny and lively. The moment it met Tang Cuo's eyes, it suddenly removed a rib from its chest, and stabbed it at Jin Cheng's back.

"Dang!" Tang Cuo immediately drew his saber and held his ribs.But after Jin Cheng took the opportunity to dodge, he raised his eyebrows and looked at the position of the skeleton just now, and asked, "What did you see?"

Tang Cuo: "You can't see?"

Jin Cheng spread his hands with an innocent look on his face.

Tang Cuo understood, this is called ghosts and ghosts.He is a ghost, so he can see skeletons, but Jin Cheng can't because he is a human.The two states of day and night limit the performance of one person respectively. If you want to survive, you must cooperate.

"Stand back." Tang Cuo passed Jin Cheng directly, and forced the skeleton back with a knife.

Jin Cheng looked at his back, touched his nose, and suddenly felt so handsome.

It's a heartwarming feeling.

what happened?

This is bent?

No way?

Tang Cuo didn't have the time to think about it. He charged for a blow, but it fell through.If the skeleton had divine help, it looked not very agile, but before Tang Cuo's knife came, it suddenly lifted into the air.

like-

"Puppet." Tang Cuo finally saw the transparent silk thread wrapped around the skeleton's limbs. The thread stretched into the night sky, and it was impossible to see where the end point was.

At this moment, Jin Cheng cleared his throat, and said, "The Illusion of Skeleton Illusion is from the Southern Song Dynasty, by Li Song. The painting shows a large skeleton manipulating a small skeleton in a puppet show, and two women and children are in a puppet show. Playing around, the picture is lively, peaceful and relaxed."

Tang Cuo: "."

Hell lively and peaceful and relaxed.
