"No.30 The winner of the 'Best Film Award' of the [-]th Golden Phoenix Awards is—"

"Ning Qiubai, "Tears of the Mermaid"!"

When the host dragged his tone and announced the winners of the Golden Phoenix Award, there was deafening applause from the audience.

Ning Qiubai stared at the golden trophy placed on the podium, and was stunned for a moment. It was Sheng Ming who pushed him lightly before he realized it.

Walking on the red carpet step by step, looking at the surprised, blessed, jealous, or joyful expressions of the guests, Ning Qiubai felt as if he was dreaming.

In the beginning, as a director, I just wanted to give the black dragon Io a chance to earn satisfaction, but I didn't expect to really embark on this road by accident.

Now that the highest award in the domestic film industry is close at hand, Ning Qiubai even felt a little absurd: Is this really something I can win?

He took the trophy from the presenter and looked down at it.

On the crystal-like transparent base is a pure golden phoenix flying with outstretched wings. If you look closely, it is somewhat similar to the outline of Sheng Ming's body.

Reaching this point, Ning Qiubai's heart suddenly stabilized.

He looked up at the host and smiled: "It's like a dream."

The host smiled and said: "Director Ning is one of the youngest directors since the establishment of the Golden Phoenix Award, second only to Mr. Sheng Xu, the winner of the first Golden Phoenix Award. He has a bright future."

Ning Qiubai was slightly taken aback.

Sheng Xu is a bright pearl in the history of domestic film. When everyone was still figuring out how to adapt to the art form of "movie", he used his amazing talent and wisdom to make rough but full of aura. Movies, and later more out of control, are almost "teaching people how to make movies".

The Golden Phoenix Award was set up for Sheng Xu. It was originally planned to be once every three years, but after several adjustments, it has now been changed to once a year.

What moved Ning Qiubai was that this late Mr. Sheng Xu was exactly Sheng Ming's grandfather.

It’s just that Ning Qiubai is well aware that compared with real geniuses, he is just standing on the shoulders of the giants of unreal games. Even if all the camera language is from him, without the scenes and actors of unreal games, he can’t reach the current height .

Therefore, Ning Qiubai said sincerely and modestly: "I am just a fluke. There is still a long way to go before the old man. I hope that I can bring more satisfying works to the screen in the future so that I can live up to everyone who supports me."

He raised the trophy and kissed Jin Feng lightly on the beak. With a smile in his eyes, he looked towards the guest seats.

Sheng Ming also looked at him, his light gray eyes were full of light, noticing Ning Qiubai's movement, he pressed his index finger on his lower lip, and kissed back indistinctly.

……

After the awards ceremony, even though Ning Qiubai really wanted to go home and spend the two-person world with Sheng Ming immediately, he had to attend the necessary entertainment.

Teacher Guo Jiuzhou, friend Geng He and others prepared a small celebration to applaud Ning Qiubai.

Guo Jiuzhou has already won a lot of Golden Phoenix Awards. Although he was happy for Ning Qiubai, he acted calmly: "Don't be satisfied with the Golden Phoenix Award. This is only a domestic award. The real world's highest award in the film industry is yours." Target."

Ning Qiubai nodded, his cheeks were a little red from drinking: "The teacher is joking, I still have a long way to go before the highest award."

Guo Jiuzhou laughed: "It's a good thing to have a goal!"

After pushing each other for a few rounds, Geng He asked, "Qiu Bai, when will your new movie start?"

Ning Qiubai thought for a while: "The script still lacks a bit of polishing, I guess we have to wait."

Guo Jiuzhou was a little puzzled: "Why are you so slow, what are you busy with?"

He wasn't accusing, but according to what he knew about Ning Qiubai, Ning Qiubai's script was delayed beyond expectations. Could there be a new idea?

Ning Qiubai and Sheng Ming beside him looked at each other, and sighed deeply: "I've been busy saving the world."

Guo Jiuzhou and Geng He laughed together, thinking it was inconvenient for him to speak, so they didn't bother.

Only Sheng Ming knew what Ning Qiubai was talking about - Ning Qiubai's thoughts these days were indeed on appeasing Nine-Tailed Fox, who was thinking about destroying the world every day because of her pregnancy.

The curse of the nine-tailed fox is too terrifying. Even Shengming, a phoenix of the same standard, doesn't want people he knows to have a deep-rooted love for others for no reason.

Fortunately, Nine-Tailed Fox will be able to give birth in a short time, and she will probably not be so irritable after giving birth... right?

Thinking that Wei Qi, who was like a powder keg, was staying alone with the culprit Yang Buwei, Ning Qiubai was a little worried that what he saw when he returned home was the cursed doll made of Yang Buwei's corpse, so he hurriedly found a reason to leave.

……

As soon as he stepped into the dungeon, Ning Qiubai's eyes darkened, and he said to himself: It's broken.

"Darkness in front of his eyes" is not a metaphor, but a description—his eyes were indeed pitch black, and he couldn't see anything, not even Sheng Ming who came in together.

Is this the curse of the nine-tailed fox?

Ning Qiubai took out his mobile phone a little uneasy, and was just about to adjust the rules when Zhang Muke sent him a message: "Create a new NPC."

Ning Qiubai has the ability to create non-self-aware NPCs in his copy, but seeing Zhang Muke posting this without thinking, he is slightly puzzled.Based on the idea that his own people would not deceive others, Ning Qiubai did it again and created a humanoid NPC, set up to look like a five or six-year-old child.

As soon as the NPC appeared, the originally blurred face became clear in an instant, and the eyes changed from absent-minded to bright, full of agile wisdom.

Ning Qiubai looked at this shrunken somewhat familiar face, and was stunned: "Zhang Muke?"

The NPC kid nodded and cleared his throat: "Zhang Muke is me, but I'm not Zhang Muke... You can call me 'System' by the name you usually call me."

Ning Qiubai's eyes widened instantly.

Zhang Muke is the system? !

Does Sheng Ming know?

Why did the system appear in front of him?

The child-incarnate system seemed to have anticipated Ning Qiubai's question, and smiled slightly: "Sheng Ming doesn't know, I created the identity of Zhang Muke just to hide beside Phoenix and guide him conveniently."

"Guide?" Ning Qiubai really thought about a lot of malicious conjectures about the system just now, but the word doesn't seem to mean that.

"Yes, of course I can't let a time bomb run around casually." Like a real child, the system sucked its fingers and asked curiously, "Speaking of which, fingers don't seem to be sweet, why do children like them? this way?"

"..." Ning Qiubai had a feeling that he and the system must be insane, "What do you think of Sheng Ming?"

"Don't worry, I won't be malicious to any NPC with self-consciousness, unless I don't want to live anymore." The system waved his hand, "Because the unreal game itself is the collective subconscious collection of NPCs with self-consciousness, each NPCs are equivalent to myself, or my own children, how could I want to hurt myself?"

In an instant, Ning Qiubai remembered that Sheng Ming had said firmly before that "the system will not give up any NPC with self-awareness", but asked him why, Sheng Ming shook his head again and said that this was from the cognition of the phoenix. I don't really understand.

But collective subconscious gathering or something... alaya?Ning Qiubai complained in his heart, even Alaya doesn't necessarily cherish every primate...

"There are too few newly born NPCs with self-awareness. Unreal games have entered an aging society for a long time." The system suddenly sighed and said something that made Ning Qiubai feel more peaceful, "The reason why I pull players into Unreal games is because The fate lines of these players can affect NPCs, and there is a possibility of awakening NPCs. If all conscious NPCs are dead, then the unreal game itself will not exist. "

"No wonder there is a re-employment app..." Ning Qiubai was thoughtful, then suddenly alert, "Then what are you looking for me this time? Do you want to take back my copy?"

"No, you've done a good job. I'm here to reward you—for example, you used to be a contract worker, and now you'll be a serious civil servant." The system clapped its hands, and suddenly appeared in the dark space. Three little white foxes, "This is the first time that an NPC can directly give birth to an NPC with autonomous consciousness! Of course, if I hadn't come here, that nine-tailed fox might not be able to control the curse on it."

Wei Qi gave birth?

Ning Qiubai was taken aback, looking at the little foxes: "Thank you."

"Haha, trifles..." The system hesitated for a moment, then raised its head and stared at Ning Qiubai with pure and lovely eyes, "Qiubai, you see, Xiaowei and Xiaoyang gave birth to three in one birth. What are you two doing?" When is it born? I didn’t say that people who are all in the third year are actively responding to national policies..."

Ning Qiubai: "..."

Is this system bug?

The system went on for a long time, and finally took a breath: "Well, what I mean is, if you have a few more conscious NPCs, the unreal game can continue to grow. Anyway, Qi Wumu is convenient to have children, and it can sow a hundred seeds in one breath. It's okay too, right?"

The corner of Ning Qiubai's mouth twitched: "We don't have this plan yet..."

Before finishing speaking, Ning Qiubai saw an orange-red light appear behind the system, like a hole in the night.

Orange feathers floated in from the breach, and fell to the ground and turned into clusters of flames; then a gorgeous divine bird flew up from the flames, its sunset-like eyes fixed on the system, and its voice was cold and sharp: "Let go of Qiubai. "

The system raised its hand: "I didn't grab him."

Sheng Ming changed back into a human form, landed in front of Ning Qiubai, protected Ning Qiubai, and said coldly: "Whether you want to have a baby is our business, if you want to have a baby, do it yourself, don't ask us - don't forget, Now Qiubai is making contributions to you, not you are giving Qiubai benefits."

Ning Qiubai was very moved that Sheng Ming could break into the system space to save him, but he still pulled Sheng Ming's wrist and whispered, "Can't you change into a suit?"

It's too embarrassing to speak the truth with bare buttocks!

Sheng Ming stared at him helplessly.

The system looked between them, and suddenly sighed: "Okay, okay, I'm busy... I can't help my mother! When you want to give birth, use the APP to contact me. Son... let's go, let me go now!"

The system dodged the fireball thrown by Sheng Ming, waved at Ning Qiubai, and smiled, "Goodbye!"

Sheng Ming waved his hand with lingering anger, and the flames swept away, tearing this space to pieces!

Ning Qiubai quickly pulled him: "Don't hurt the little fox!"

Sheng Ming reluctantly let the flame go around the three foxes lying on the ground who hadn't opened their eyes, and muttered: "Turn back and throw that nest of foxes away."

Ning Qiu laughed, and patted the back of Sheng Ming's hand: "Don't be so harsh on the system, we are still working under the system anyway."

Sheng Ming turned his head to look at Ning Qiubai, was silent for a while, and suddenly said in a low voice, "Sorry."

"Sorry for what?"

"I got you involved."

From a root cause point of view, Ning Qiubai's encounters so far are inseparable from the phoenix. Although there are many good things in these encounters, there are also many painful and sad parts.

Ning Qiubai knew what he was thinking, and reached out to hold Sheng Ming's face: "If you do it all over again, do you still want to meet me?"

Sheng Ming moved his lips, then pursed them tightly, and after a long time, he whispered: "I think."

Although somewhat selfish, Sheng Ming is still unwilling to let go of Ning Qiubai.

Ning Qiubai's lips curled up: "Me too."

He put down his hand and put his fingers into Sheng Ming's palm.Sheng Ming held him back, his fingers penetrated into each other's fingers, and his fingers were intertwined.

It is also a handshake, but the interlocking of fingers gives people a special feeling, as if the hearts are bonded together.

Ning Qiubai and Sheng Ming looked at each other for a long time, and smiled at the same time.

"Teach me more in the future." Sheng Ming stretched out his other hand, stroking Ning Qiubai's side face, his voice was gentle but firm.

Ning Qiubai showed a bright smile: "To each other."
