Online Games: Light and Dust

It dawned early in summer, and when we walked out of the dormitory, it was already a sunny day outside. S University has always been famous for its plane trees and ginkgo trees. Although it is already early autumn, the leaves are still green under the sunlight.Lin Yu was walking on the familiar road, and glanced at Cheng Xi, feeling a little dazed.

Walking with the person you like, no matter how familiar the road is, it will become different.

"Ayun has something to do today, so I'm going home." Cheng Xi led Lin Yu through a school cafeteria: "I'll take you to eat ramen."

"Do you eat outside the school?" Lin Yu asked.

"Go to a friend's place to eat."

The friend Cheng Xi mentioned was a restaurant called "Yunding Snacks" outside the school. Lin Yu used to go shopping for books and passed by that restaurant. He felt that it was completely different from the small restaurants on the street.Bai Xiaoxu told him that this shop was run by a rich second generation, and there were only two tables in it, and there was a piano, a bookshelf, and a fish tank, and fresh roses were placed on the tables every day, and they were free when ordered. Freshly squeezed juices.The rent of a 10,000-square-meter store outside the school is [-]+ a year, so a restaurant that ignores the market economy should have gone bankrupt long ago.

When Lin Yu and the others arrived, the restaurant had already opened. The restaurant was on the second floor. Climbing up the iron stairs, the balcony suddenly opened up, with black iron railings on the edge of the balcony.Flower beds are built on both sides of the entrance like sky gardens, planted with white Florentine irises, and the wall facing the street is full of floor-to-ceiling windows with water features on it. Sitting on the storefront and looking outside, one would think it is raining outside.There were no customers in the store, only a female shop assistant in a plaid dress sitting at the door trimming the roses planted by the door, saw Cheng Xi, smiled at him, and looked at Lin Yu carefully.

When you enter the door, you will see a large fish tank on the ground. The algae are like an exquisite underwater forest, and there are many beautiful tropical fish swimming around.There are really only two tables in the store, a round table that can seat about seven or eight people, and a square table by the window.The rest has a small circular stage, a piano, a bar, and a wine cabinet, but there are no other tables.

There's a guy in a shirt wiping glasses at the bar, next to a silver Alienware.Hearing the voice, he raised his head, saw Cheng Xi's posture of kicking the hall, and immediately smiled: "A rare visitor, Young Master Cheng."

"Stop talking nonsense, go and make ramen for me." Cheng Xi dragged away a chair next to the round table, motioned Lin Yu to sit down, walked to the front of the bar, glanced at the wine cabinet, very dissatisfied: "Nan Zhongyuan, you The broken shop is about to go bankrupt, and there is no bottle of good wine."

The person he called Nan Zhongyuan smiled, but was not angry. He put down his glass and took an apron from under the bar.

"I got up late today and didn't make noodles. I made chicken soup last night and made bridge rice noodles for you and your friend? You can make it for me first."

Standing by the bar, Cheng Xi turned his notebook around, and while typing on the keyboard, he rejected his proposal without looking back: "You only have ramen here. Don't try to try my dishes... "

"Okay, then I'll make the dough first." Hearing what he said, Nan Zhongyuan was not annoyed, he was still smiling, and while wearing an apron, he took out the ingredients from under the counter.It took a lot of effort to decorate this store. The bar counter and the kitchen counter are integrated. The kitchen counter is inside, which is much shorter than the bar counter. In addition to things like bartending and squeezing, there are also a lot of kitchen utensils on it. There is also a row next to the wine cabinet. Except for the dishes that take a lot of time to cook in the kitchen, the general breakfast can be done here.

Lin Yu walked over silently and stood beside Cheng Xi watching him play games.

Cheng Xi is manipulating a Huanhua on the screen who is wearing the fashion of Falling Leaves Zhiqiu to fight, but the strange thing is that, when the local tyrants go to buy fashions, this Huanhua is wearing a +7 Huanhua suit, and the weapon is only the same as Huanhua A matching set of heart-clearing medicine capsules.

When Lin Yu entered this game, he studied the professions in the game. Sunrise Warrior and Night Assassin both need extremely high operation skills to produce output, while Changfeng Archer and Yunlu Mage with high output are both crispy. , it is impossible to survive if the operation is not good, let alone the output, so the only choices left are Huanhua and Xinglin.The reason why Xinglin was chosen in the end is not only because Xinglin can level up on his own at low levels, but also because Huanhua's operation difficulty is higher than Xinglin's, not even lower than other professions, because most of Huanhua's skills are directional Skill.

Directional skills, as the name suggests, are skills that are shot in a certain direction. You need to be aware of the opponent's position, and sometimes you even have to predict the opponent's movement direction in advance to ensure a hit.In addition to Huanhua, Yunlu and Warrior also have a lot of directional skills, but Warrior is flesh and can get close to the opponent. When the distance is close, it doesn't matter whether it is pointing or not. Yunlu originally hides behind and throws range attacks, as long as the direction Don't be too outrageous, you can always hit a few people.But Huanhua's request is to accurately give the shield to his main T in the chaotic army, give the acceleration to the archer on his side, and at the same time leave the control skills to the assassin who rushes in to cut his archer, and finally Also slow down the person on the opposite side.Huanhua is known as group control, not only to control opponents in a narrow sense, but to control the rhythm of the team.

Lin Yu is very self-aware of his own operations, so he silently practiced Xiao Xinglin with blood.

But Cheng Xi was different.

The screen is obviously a team melee between players. There are more than a dozen people on the opposite side. Most of them are fighters. There are four or five fighters. There are also archers and Yunlu. There are only six people here, which happens to be a complete full-professional team.The main force of the team is a warrior, wearing a dragon-slaying suit, and the rest of the members are also good. The formation stands well, and the archer and Yunlu are caught in the middle, which is well protected.In order to facilitate fighting, Cheng Xi also set up a hidden game ID.

When the battle on the screen was at its most intense, two fighters on the opposite side rushed over from the side with the firepower of the archers and Yunlu. Xinglin on this side was half-meat, and even with the shield on, he could only hold less than three In seconds, seeing that the warrior was about to rush to the archer, Cheng Xi's Huanhua gave the archer an acceleration, and the archer rolled to the ground to avoid the warrior's dizziness. Then a shield was added to Yunlu, and at the same time the range decelerated and dragged the opposing fighter, giving himself an acceleration to rush to the front of the fighter, and cooperated with the archer to hit a wave of damage, Yunlu dodged to a safe rear and began to read the ultimate move.

The soldiers on the opposite side rushed up immediately, with one and a half blood and one full blood.

Cheng Xi decisively sold Archer.Putting a shield on him, he ran to the side. Fortunately, Xinglin used a big move to fill the archer with full blood, rushed over to escort the archer, and the archer escaped with half blood.One of the two fighters on the opposite side was also beaten to the brim, and hurriedly withdrew.Cheng Xi didn't chase, and set himself up to speed up, and the remaining full-blooded warrior who was kiting with the archer was having fun when the archer froze, and the opponent's assassin appeared from the air, and directly opened the big second archer.Cheng Xi didn't even bother to give the bow gloves to the shield, and gave him a mouthful of milk that was in 1V3, and the archer on his side was killed directly.Cheng Xi moved to avoid the assassin's skills to prevent him from getting close, and then imprisoned the warrior on the opposite side who was just about to escape, suspended in the air, and opened the ult directly.Nine long swords appeared from the sky in an instant, and one by one roared down. The three people who were besieging the soldiers, the two soldiers with blood on the opposite side, and the assassin who had just killed the archer were all nailed to the ground. Just as the move was finished reading, fireballs rained down from the sky, and the nearby channel was swiped by the death notices of six people on the opposite side.

The fact that six people were lost in an instant was too frightening, and the rest of them cringed a little. While hesitating, an assassin's clone suddenly appeared opposite him standing in the back row, first a spinning dart throwing dead blood. Then he drove a lot of Yunlu to beat him until he was left with bloody skin, killing him instantly with one move.

The rest of the people immediately scattered like birds and beasts.

Cheng Xi tapped the keyboard twice lightly, and Huanhua on the screen squatted down beside the corpse on the ground in a hurry and began to pick up equipment.

[Team] Fenghua Xueyue: Damn it!Do you want to be so ruthless that you even pick up the equipment I drop!

Cheng Xi unhurriedly picked up a longbow from the archer on his side and put it in the package.

[Team] Nanfeng: Not me.

[Team] Wind Flower Snow Moon: (#‵′) Convex.

Lin Yu looked hesitantly at Huanhua, who was still covered in blood on the screen.

"This person is not..."

"This is not my account." Cheng Xi directly clicked back to the city, raised his head, and pointed to Nan Zhongyuan who had made up and was standing by the bar with a smile on his face, watching Cheng Xi play: "I played for him."

The shop owner with flour on his hands smiled harmlessly at Lin Yu: "Hello, I'm Nanfeng."

Lin Yu hesitated for a while, and decided to make a corresponding self-introduction, so he also reported his game ID: "My name is Zifeiyu."

Cheng Xi took out a cigarette, leaned on the bar and smiled proudly at Lin Yu: "Now you know why this guy is on the PK list."

"Cheng Xi and I have known each other since middle school," Nan Zhongyuan said to Lin Yu while stretching noodles, "But my friend and I were playing in the first district. Did you see the assassin on our team just now? That's our Underworld Emperor." Helper."

Lin Yu silently stared at the dough in his hands that was being kneaded, beaten, stretched and beaten again, without taking his eyes off it.

"Are you cooking?" He asked Nan Zhongyuan.

"I'm making ramen." Nan Zhongyuan explained to him.

"Is this shop yours?" Lin Yu asked him.

"Well, I opened it." Nan Zhongyuan has a better temper than Yi Yunyou, and always has a smile on his face: "I am also a student of this school, and I don't usually stay in the store. If you come to me in the future If I’m not around when you’re here, just tell the clerk, and the clerk will give you a discount.”

Lin Yu was always ignorant of the ways of the world, and he used to stay in the Institute of Science and Technology all day long, so he naturally didn't know that the circle that Nan Zhongyuan and Cheng Xi belonged to was one of the most difficult circles among all S college students to enter, although the reputation was better than that of the School of Art. The nouveau riche who "drive a sports car to class" are much more low-key, but they are not at the same level as them in terms of their family's economic strength or personal taste.Nan Zhongyuan's shop was their base, because Lin Yu was brought by Cheng Xi, so Nan Zhongyuan naturally included him in this circle.Nan Zhongyuan has seen a lot of worlds, and his vision of seeing people is not bad. His friendly attitude towards Lin Yu is naturally because of Cheng Xi's face.Don't look at him smiling all day long, in fact, he knows better than anyone else how close they are.

"The food in his shop is terrible, Xiaoyu, you don't have to believe his nonsense," Cheng Xi finished smoking a cigarette outside, then sat on the table and typed on the keyboard.

Nan Zhongyuan just smiled and was not angry.He is interested in and talented in cooking. In his opinion, cooking is no different from playing the violin and learning to paint.He opened this restaurant in college as a joke. Anyway, from his name, he is the second child in the family, and he doesn't need to be young to live a decent life.But if someone thinks he's aloof, chasing his dreams and rebelling against his family just because he opened a restaurant, it's ridiculous.

He and Cheng Xi have different values.

"Going out for a drink at night, Yu Sen and the others booked a seat at Richy." He said to Cheng Xi.

Cheng Xi was still typing on the keyboard.

"Don't go."

"It's just a group of people playing together. Isn't Yu Sen chasing that model recently? Even for her birthday, her friends will come. Didn't you always want Wang Yan to give up on you..."

Cheng Xi frowned.

"Don't say this in front of Xiaoyu." He looked at Nan Zhongyuan displeased: "Xiaoyu is still a student."

Nan Zhongyuan laughed as if he was joking.

"Aren't you a student too?"

"Xiaoyu is from the Institute of Science and Technology, and he will study for a Ph. D. Don't talk about these messy things in front of him in the future."

"Okay, okay." Nan Zhongyuan was not angry at all, and teased Lin Yu: "Is Xiaoyu from the 'Little White House'?"

The Little White House is the building of the Department of Mathematics of S University, and many famous mathematicians have come out.Because of the architectural style and the "noble and glamorous" (actually ignorant of the world) of the students of the Department of Mathematics, it is nicknamed the Little White House by the students.

"Ah?" Lin Yu was concentrating on watching the thinner and thinner noodles in Nan Zhongyuan's hands, and it took him a long time to realize: "No, I'm a physics student."

"That's amazing too." The owner of the shop ended the topic lightly, wearing a Charvet shirt that was a few thousand small, skillfully stretched the noodles, and asked Lin Yu with an excellent service attitude: "Xiaoyu likes noodles thinner or thicker?"

"Let's be more detailed." Lin Yu swallowed silently.

When the beef noodles are on the table, the whole store is fragrant. It is clear as a mirror, but it has a strong aroma from beef bones, yellow noodles, green garlic and coriander, red chili oil, and There are white radish slices, and then covered with large slices of beef cut by the owner himself, just looking at it makes people's index fingers move.

But Lin Yu kept staring at the soup bowl.

Looking at the shape, the color, and the rabbit-like tendons in the black glaze, it looks like a priceless Song Dynasty Jianyao rabbit.

"Why, Xiaoyu also has research on building kilns?" Nan Zhongyuan wiped his hands with a wet towel and smiled amiably.

Lin Yu picked up the chopsticks and silently uttered two words:

"fake."

Cheng Xi almost choked on the soup.

"Well, I found an expert to imitate it." Nan Zhongyuan still smiled harmlessly: "I personally like Jianyao porcelain very much. I have always wanted to buy a Tianmu lamp, but unfortunately I can't find it. If I can meet it, it doesn't matter how much it is. The money will be collected.”

Lin Yu silently sized him up and took a piece of noodles with his chopsticks.

"My family sells Jian Kiln."

Nan Zhongyuan's smile froze.

"Tianmu is what the Japanese call it. I don't have one at home. I have a few rabbits." Lin Yu lowered his head and ate his noodles: "But Jianzhan is actually a tea bowl. If you eat noodles with a tea bowl, my mother won't sell it to you. "

Lin Yu raised his head and glanced at Nan Zhongyuan, thinking that his expression should mean that he was overly sad and stunned.

"But if you really like it, I can bring one out of the house and show you."
