The Trial Game of Life

It was still on East Cross Street, or in Tangcuo's small room with a broken window, Chi Yan, as a real warrior, faced exactly the same scene as Wen Xiaoming back then.

It's called "Two Butchers and a Green Dinosaur".

"Brother Tang, listen to my explanation—" Chi Yan was also pretending to be well-behaved, blinking his eyes, trying to get the boss's mercy.But Tang Cuo interrupted him mercilessly.

"Did I tell you to talk?"

Chi Yan shrunk his neck aggrievedly, but Tang Cuo's face was still dark.

Just now on East Cross Street, no one dared to provoke after Jin Cheng Xiao revealed his hand.The old players retreated one after another, and the new players were so excited that they almost bowed to Jin Cheng and Tang Cuo on the spot.

Fortunately, the two reacted quickly. After catching Chi Yan, they hid back in the building, and then escaped.

After a long time, Tang Cuo finally calmed down a bit, "Say."

Chi Yan quickly explained: "I was deceived by them! I came to look for you in Area F two days ago, but I couldn't find you. I heard that there was a kitchen knife gang established here. After asking again, the gang leader they said is not brother You, so I joined in!"

When Tang Cuo heard the words "chopper gang", he became angry again.It was still Jin Cheng who stopped him with a smile, and raised his chin slightly to signal, "Go on."

Chi Yan: "Oh, in fact, everyone just doesn't want to be exploited by old players. If someone takes the lead in resisting, someone will respond. And we have weapons. The knives in the supermarket are really useful!"

Tang Cuo's bone chopping knife really pointed out a way for everyone.Under the premise that new players generally do not have weapons at hand, although the kitchen knives in the supermarket have no added value, knives are knives!

"We also bought a lot of pepper powder, chili powder, water guns, fishing rods, and other things. We have played many times these days. Although most of them lose, we have new players every day!" As he said that, Chi Yan became proud, "And Brother Tang, you two made a move this time today, it's safe!"

Hold your head steady.

Tang Cuo didn't expect that there would be new players forming cliques under his name. It's fine to form cliques, but he still took such a vulgar name.And this Chi Yan, who is not very old, dares to go up and raise his arms, and he is not afraid of breaking his arms.

Jin Cheng was very interested in him, and asked, "Look at the few words you yelled just now, you are very skilled, what did you do before?"

Chi Yan immediately scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a blushing face, "Hey, I even built a guild in online games, and I also like to participate in some group activities in school. Just now, I went up and yelled a few words."

Tang Cuo didn't think he just went up and yelled a few words casually. Those few words were clearly to the point and quite provocative. Even if Chi Yan was not a human talent, he would be a ghost.

"Aren't you from Area F?" Tang Cuo asked.

"I've been assigned to Zone E." Chi Yan nodded, "There aren't many new players in Zone E. I didn't see any of them. I was a little scared by myself, so I came to look for you. By the way, are you a new player too? ? You were so powerful just now, it was so cool!"

Chi Yan said the last half sentence to Jin Cheng.

Jin Cheng acted quite kindly, "My name is Jin Cheng, I'm not a new player, I just happen to know you, Brother Tang."

Hearing that, Chi Yan wanted to call him Brother Jin, but Brother Jin sounded a bit like Guo Jing, so he simply called him "Brother Cheng".Brother Cheng is a good man. He not only agreed to let Chi Yan stay, but also let him live in the room next door.

But for a moment, Jin Cheng's position in Chi Yan's heart was as close as Tang Cuo's.

"By the way, brother, have you seen that little girl?" Chi Yan turned serious, frowning, looking a little grown-up, "I've looked for it in the E area, and I've also looked for it in the F area, but I couldn't find it. She. She is so small and so eye-catching, and the Evernight City looks like this, I am afraid that something will happen to her."

Tang Cuo also thought of the little girl with the bald head. She hadn't escaped cancer, nor had she escaped from Evernight City. Now that four or five days have passed, it's hard to say what will happen to her.

Jin Cheng asked, "What kind of person is she?"

Chi Yan quickly told him everything he knew, Jin Cheng thought for a while, and said: "In the evaluation mechanism of Eternal Night City, the rating represents your survivability, and the points represent your grades. High survivability does not mean that grades are important. It must be good, the two are not equal. From F area to A area, although the upgrade condition is points, but the core is actually the rating. If the little girl you mentioned really died of cancer and was young, it means It means that her survivability will not be very strong, and she will probably be assigned to Area F."

What Jin Cheng said was basically consistent with what Tang Cuo speculated. He himself was assigned to Area F. The specific reason besides the negative score debuff should also be Mr. Crow.Just like Jin Cheng was fined and sent back to Area F.

Chi Yan was puzzled, "But if she's in Area F, why hasn't there been any news for several days? She won't be hiding in the room forever, she has to eat!"

"Maybe she's already dead." Jin Cheng said this very lightly.

Chi Yan choked, and couldn't help turning his gaze to Tang Cuo.

Tang Cuo thought about it, and asked, "What's the difference between dying in Eternal Night City and dying in the dungeon?"

Jin Cheng likes Tang Cuo the most. He is very smart and can always hit the nail on the head when he asks questions, "There are only six districts from A to F in the seven districts of Eternal Night City. Guess what is the remaining one?"

Chi Yan shook his head obediently.

Jin Cheng: "It's a prison. You should have heard a sentence from the system when you first entered the game, the first rule of Eternal Night City: Survival is justice. All players who die in Eternal Night City have violated this law of justice. If you don't have the ability to live, or you don't have the courage to live, you will be punished."

"What about the murderer? Where's the murderer?" Chi Yan's eyes widened. "The murderer is guilty, but the murderer is fine?"

Jin Cheng spread his hands, with a smile on his lips, "This is Eternal Night City."

Chi Yan was so shocked that he was speechless. For a hot-blooded boy like him, such a fact was unacceptable.And if that little girl was thrown into prison, it would be even more unacceptable.

"Then can I go to the prison to find someone?" He asked hurriedly.

"The warden in District G is a pervert that even I dare not provoke easily. If you think you are living too well, you can go and shake it in front of him."

Hearing what Jin Cheng said, Chi Yan inevitably retreated a bit.But thinking of that little girl, Chi Yan couldn't bear it again. Fortunately, being imprisoned was just a guess, and Chi Yan felt that he could continue to look for it.

Then the three of them talked about the kitchen knife gang. Tang Cuo didn't want to be the spokesperson of the Laoshizi chef gang at all, but Jin Cheng had a different opinion.

"It's good to have such a force, but the name needs to be changed." Jin Cheng taught Chi Yan the secret with great interest, and Chi Yan listened with great enthusiasm and nodded repeatedly.

Tang Cuo didn't participate in the discussion throughout the whole process. When Chi Yan obtained Jin Cheng's true biography and was sent out by Jin Cheng for specific operations, he asked, "Why did you keep him?"

Standing by the window, Jin Cheng watched Chi Yan rejoin the group of newcomers, and said, "The two of you and I are too conspicuous in Area F, and we need a more conspicuous presence."

Tang Cuo raised his eyebrows, "You are the only one who stands out."

"That's not right." Jin Cheng smiled lightly, leaning against the window sill and turned around, "I wasn't the one who used the kitchen knife to chop people at the beginning."

"That's a bone cutter."

"Aren't they all kitchen utensils?"

Tang Cuo didn't bother to talk to him.

Only then did Jin Cheng regain his seriousness, "One thing I didn't lie to you is that I do have a lot of enemies. Although people from high-level areas rarely come to low-level areas, the news about me here must not be hidden, let alone just now I've already made a shot. To be on the safe side, we have to find two regular teammates, otherwise the higher we go, the more dangerous we will be."

After thinking for a while, Tang Cuo understood what he meant.People from different districts can't do tasks together, but it doesn't mean that Jin Cheng's enemies can't make trouble for them in the dungeon, they can buy others.

Theoretically, as long as you keep an eye on the two of them and follow them to take on the mission, you may be assigned to the same instance.

"But why do I have to be with you?" Tang Cuo asked sincerely.

"Because you still owe me money." Jin Cheng also answered him sincerely.

Tang Cuo was expressionless for a moment, turned around and walked back to the bed to prepare to rest.Jin Cheng watched him take out everything from the plastic bag in the supermarket, then stuffed the bone cutter under the pillow, and said, "Are you planning to murder the instructor in the middle of the night?"

Tang Cuo turned his head, "I'm even more curious about why you are still here in the middle of the night."

Jin Cheng spread his hands, "Because I gave up the next door to Chi Yan."

Tang Cuo: "Does it have anything to do with me?"

Jin Cheng: "I said yes, there will be."

Tang Cuo wanted to fight him.

Forget it, can't beat it.

The 24-year-old Tang Cuo was able to strike without fear, and then was rubbed on the ground by the instructor. The [-]-year-old Tang Cuo has begun to pay attention to planning before making moves—for example, in the middle of the night while he is asleep, he will make a black hand.

Jin Cheng narrowed his eyes, and intuitively told him that Tang Cuo was thinking about something not so good, just like when he was in the military camp.Da Li and the others always teased Jin Cheng that sooner or later you will capsize in the gutter and be beaten by a recruit, but Jin Cheng doesn't care.

He felt that Tang Cuo was like a little tiger, and sooner or later he would become the king of beasts. When others teased cats, he teased tigers, so awesome.

But Jin Cheng didn't live in Tang Cuo's room in the end, for fear of being bitten by a tiger and having no place to vaccinate.He didn't tell Tang Cuo where he was going, he just walked out of the room, went downstairs, and left East Cross Street.

Tang Cuo stood by the window and watched, his eyes were far away.

Half an hour later, Ruby Tavern in District F.

Amidst the sound of the "dingling" wind chime, Jin Cheng pushed open the door and walked in, and greeted the waiter waiting at the door with ease, "A glass of brandy, is your boss there?"

The waiter wore a clean and tidy Western-style uniform and was polite, "Yes, sir, box 19."

Jin Cheng nodded, and went straight to Room 19.

This tavern is different from other taverns. It is a typical baroque style, luxurious and pompous, and there is a breath of money in every corner.Corresponding to this is the expensive price on the menu, even if it is just a glass of ordinary beer, it will cost the player a quarter of the points.

There were hardly any customers in the tavern.

Jin Cheng waited in box No. 19 for a while, the door opened, and a man with long hair who was dressed as luxuriously as the interior decoration walked in.He has strange facial features, with raised phoenix eyes, and is dressed in a purple suit.

"I made a bet with the black hat the day before yesterday, saying that you have been quietly doing something important lately, so you were sent back to Block F again?" He casually pushed a glass of wine in front of Jin Cheng, and put a ruby ​​on his thumb The ring was as red as blood.

"Why do you talk so much nonsense all day long? I'm afraid you were all dumb in your previous life." Jin Cheng took a sip of the wine, his tone playful and cold.

The other party didn't care, and leaned back against the booth in a lazy posture, "Tell me, why are you looking for me, you don't have any interest in F area, do you?"

"Why can't I be interested? I want information on the existing players and missions in Area F. The more complete the better, the focus is on two people, one named An Ning and the other named Chi Yan."

"Are you out of your mind?"

"You just have to answer if I have?"

"Of course I have information. The Ruby Tavern never smashes its own signboard, but I really want to know why? Last time you were fined back to Area F and left after staying here for a week. What do you need so much information for?"

Jin Cheng shook his wine glass, and asked back, "What price do you want to get information from me?"

The other party smiled, "I'll give you a [-]% discount."

"Half and half."

"Are you a businessman or am I a businessman? The price is higher than mine."

"Don't you know? Suzhou people cut half the price."

"Isn't your ancestral home from Beijing?"

"Oh, my apprentice is here, he is from Suzhou."

"Do you think I dare not drive you out?"

The other party was about to be laughed angrily by Jin Cheng. This was some kind of unreasonable bargaining, but Jin Cheng's words revealed an important message to him.He wondered how true this "disciple" was, and finally said bluntly, "I'll give you half the price, two hundred points."

Jin Cheng put down his wine glass, "Deal."

"I'll say hello, as long as it's my territory, I'll be courteous when I see you as an apprentice in the future, but you have to tell me who your apprentice is."

"You'll find out soon enough."

"Will you die if you don't protect the calf? Are you an old hen?"

"none of your business."

Jin Cheng raised his head and drank the last sip of wine, put down his glass, patted his buttocks and left, coming and going in a chic way, making people angry and speechless.

Halfway there, he turned around and said, "Remember to deliver the things to East Cross Street."

What answered him was a wine glass flying in the air, Jin Cheng tilted his head to avoid it, the glass hit the pillar with a "bang", and hundreds of thousands of oceans just disappeared.

Jin Cheng shrugged, anyway, it wasn't his money that was thrown away, so he didn't feel bad at all.

Leaving the Ruby Tavern, he returned to East Cross Street.

The people on the street dispersed, and most of the windows of the houses facing the street were closed. Occasionally, a few people poked their heads out to look, and quickly retracted.But if you look carefully, you will find that there are several pairs of eyes hidden in the corners of all sides, spying on everything in the dark.

In these eyes, there is the result of Chi Yan's active learning from Jin Cheng.In the final analysis, the so-called Kitchen Knife Gang is just a loose sand that has barely gathered together, and it is still far from a real foothold. It is already strong enough to hold the territory of East Cross Street.

As for other prying eyes, they came from farther away.

The news about East Cross Street was transmitted layer by layer in the night, some of them fell silent, and some of them caused waves.

In the high-rise residence near the central area of ​​District F, a man fell directly from the hammock, covered his buttocks and asked, "What did you say?"

"A man with a scar on his face."

"Handsome or ugly?"

"Uh... handsome."

"Hold."

The man cursed under his breath, pacing up and down the room.After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "You let people keep watching, and don't provoke him beforehand. Then tell An Ning and the others that they are going to upgrade the mission and go to Area E."

The author has something to say:

Eternal Night City is a big stage, and there will be many people appearing in the central city and the seven major districts, so in this infinite stream, in addition to the various game copies, there are also many plots in the city.
