Opening a Shop in the Nightmare World
Chapter 38
If enough time is given, many people may be able to think of the things Su Zimo said, but because there is not enough time, Su Zimo, who can discover this in the shortest time, appears in the eyes of other experienced practitioners. Even more powerful!
"You really deserve to be the bully of Shoushan No. [-] Middle School." Du Xin looked at Su Zimo with glowing eyes, as if a pair of ears and a fluffy tail were moving.
"Shoushan No. [-] Middle School..." Cheng Yun, who was standing next to Du Xin, repeated it softly.
"Actually, it's too bad to have discovered this until now." Su Zimo would not be happy because of this, "It doesn't make much sense to be called Xueba, after all, everyone has something he is good at. And If the customs clearance fails, this title will be even more meaningless to people like me who don’t have enough nightmares.”
Su Zimo actually felt a little depressed. He always felt that he had unknowingly become the more active one among the trainees, but he was not a trainee yet.For Su Zimo, collecting ghost artifacts is the most important thing, but his intuition tells him that compared with the open first and third floors, there is a high possibility of ghost artifacts on the second floor, but if you want to enter the second floor, you must You have to follow the design of this nightmare world step by step.
If Li Gui can really come out from the second floor, then they should also have a way to enter the second floor.
"In short, we have new clues now." Jin Lei tried her best to smile in the tense atmosphere, looking at the trainees who took back the ghost weapon together - they may not even know that the props they own can be called For "ghost device", "everyone should have an identity."
"But what does it mean to have status? Do you want to wear all the clothes of those servants like you?" Du Xin scratched his head when he came out of the maid's room before, "Those clothes are all yellowed, like cheap clothes. Antique."
"Just as you said." Jin Lei, as the only person with a clear identity among the trainees, looked at Su Zimo, the rough guys and the girls around her, and the corner of her mouth ticked undetectably, "Anyway, the previous order I don’t remember it anymore, everyone will role-play according to the room they were allocated this time. Those in the chef’s room will wear chef’s clothes, those in the maid’s room will wear maid’s clothes, and those in the gardener’s room will wear the gardener tools, okay?"
"can."
To everyone's shock, the first practitioner who agreed aloud was actually Liu Xu who didn't speak more than 10 words from the beginning to the end!The dark-skinned trainee heaved a sigh of relief while putting away the red glove on his right hand.
Su Zimo remembered that except for this time, this Mr. Liu seemed to have come out of the maid's room, but this time he was assigned to the chef's room, so he escaped the fate of wearing a maid's outfit.
"This..." For some reason, "Cheng Yun", who had been assigned to the maid's room three times in a row, seemed to feel deep malice, but due to Cheng Yun's personality, he only showed hesitation.
"Shouldn't we change it now?" Cheng Yun finally couldn't help frowning, "You can wait a little longer."
"But we don't know when it will be reclassified, and we don't know how long a 'day' is in this nightmare world." Dr. Jin sighed, "At least the first day and the second day we have spent are fully It's different, maybe the third day will pass in a few minutes. Captain Cheng, we don't have much time left, we can't miss any important clue."
What Dr. Jin said was naturally good, but from Su Zimo's point of view, she seemed to really want to see Cheng Yun in a maid outfit.
"There are three sets of clothes in the maid's room. Apart from Dr. Jin, we have three other women here. We don't need a big man like me to join in the fun." Cheng Yun obviously did not accept the matter of wearing a maid's outfit, and even glanced at it Su Zimo fell silent again, "Even Mr. Su looks better in clothes like mine, right? If this is a live show, there must be more people who want to see ladies and Mr. Su in maid outfits." Some, no?"
"It's not a gimmick." Bai Man, who had been standing beside Cheng Yun as an assistant, even said softly, "It's all just for customs clearance."
"Yes, Captain Cheng is the only one besides me who has stayed in the same room three times among all the people present." Doctor Jin smiled flawlessly, "Look, I've already put on a white coat It's..."
"I see." Cheng Yun's face sank for the first time, but he put on a smile very quickly in the next second, making everyone who noticed this want to clap their hands and praise, "Everyone change When you are wearing clothes, check carefully for any new clues in the room you are in."
Seeing Cheng Yun agreed with a smile on his face, several old members of the Shuguang organization just nodded in response. Du Xin and Qi Xiaomin, the two new members and maids this time, didn't say what they wanted to say in the end. Cheng Yun didn't have any friendship with other trainees, and they naturally wouldn't have any opinions.
Anyone can come as long as they are not allowed to wear maid outfits!
As for Su Zimo, as long as they realize that he is "extra person", they can play however they want.
After everyone's suggestions were agreed, everyone went back to the previous room one after another, hoping that they could really find a glimmer of life hidden in this nightmare world through role-playing.
The reason why they chose to go back to the room one after another was because the maids and the trainees in the gardener's room were of different genders, so they acted separately.
The first one to come out was Liu Xu. Perhaps it was because the chef of the villa was a big fat man, so the yellowed white chef uniform was put on him like a sack. If the chef hat was not folded, it might also be his The whole head is covered.
Then there is Bai Man in the bodyguard's room, because the bodyguards in the villa don't have any special uniforms, so she asked Su Zimo for the tactical pen in the bodyguard's room, and took it in her hand as a tool.
Fang Qin, Xiaohuo and Wan Ling in the gardener's room did not have special uniforms either, but Mr. Fang Qin carried the Tai Chi sword behind his back and held a folding shovel in his hand. The metal part was already rusty.In Xiaohuo's hand was a similar shovel, which couldn't be folded, but its weight seemed to be about the same as that of Mr. Fang.
What was even more frightening was Wan Ling, who was wearing a white dress and looked very quiet. She found a pair of half-length gardening scissors somewhere—it seemed to be used to trim giant shrubs.When Wan Ling held the oversized scissors in her hands, the thin and small girl looked a little terrified.
What surprised Su Zimo the most was that the pair of scissors that Wan Ling found... turned out to be a ghost weapon!
[Broken ghost (two stars)]
[Price: 50 yuan]
[Description: Hidden in an environment full of ghost aura, the huge gardening scissors that have been washed away by ghost aura for a long time seem to have some kind of mutation, which allows the holder to use this scissors to cut off part of the human and ghost The connection between them is extremely effective against half-baked possessed ghosts, and can cause a certain degree of damage to ghosts. ]
Not just a ghost weapon, but a two-star ghost weapon...
After discovering this, Su Zimo didn't know how to feel sorry for himself, but he was glad that the girl found a good self-defense tool.
"Xiaoling, is this tool too heavy?" Jin Lei couldn't help reminding her because she was always clinging to her.
But Wan Ling just shook her head quickly, and then tightly hugged the scissors "Broken Ghost" in her arms, as if she could feel the sense of security this ghost weapon brought her.From the very beginning, the girl followed Dr. Jin's actions, and she could find that Wan Ling is a practitioner who acts by feeling.
Then came the lunatic who came out of the driver's room. He didn't put on the driver's old suit, but hooked the famous car keys thrown on the table on his fingers, still looking foolish.
Su Zimo didn't find the butler's uniform, and the wardrobe with the safe was full of very ordinary and unrecognizable clothes, unlike the white butler who was fired by him, he prepared a closet full of black tuxedos and white shirts, so In the end, he simply returned to the hall with a copy of "The Steward's Self-cultivation".
And the last ones to make a grand appearance are naturally the three trainees in the maid's room.
Qi Xiaomin is the one who has no psychological pressure and is at the forefront. If you ignore the old and yellowed maid outfit, she looks like a young and energetic little maid. Even the original simple ponytail has been changed into a double ponytail. It fits very well.
The situation of Cheng Yun and Du Xin is not so optimistic...
Cheng Yun looks like an ordinary man, but he is definitely not thin. Du Xin is a college student who is a part-time fitness instructor. One size fits all maid outfit.
When the two came out slowly, even Mr. Fang Qin, who had always been very approachable, couldn't help rubbing his temples, and murmured: "It's not necessary, it's really not necessary."
I saw that the two of them tried their best to put the maid uniform on their bodies due to the incompatibility of their sizes, but the zipper behind them couldn't be pulled at all. They could only hang it on their shoulders like wearing an apron. The skirt was also tied with a bow at the waist like a rough belt. It could be said to be as miserable as it could be, and it looked a little embarrassed.
"Let's do this first." Cheng Yun's expression was not good at the moment, but he went straight back to his seat by the dining table without saying a word.
In fact, if you want to experiment, you don't necessarily have to wear a maid outfit for Cheng Yun, but maybe it's because the Cheng Yun they saw in front of them took out the "key of habitual stealing". Consciously or unintentionally, he was provoking Cheng Yun.
The victim, Du Xin, also quickly returned to Su Zimo's side, and said with a pitiful expression, "Obviously I was a gardener before, and the ghosts here are really bullying people!"
"This is also to find the 'silver line of life' to pass the test." Su Zimo flipped through the "The Housekeeper's Self-Cultivation" for a while, and finally closed the book because it was meaningless, adjusted his glasses and said, " Everyone, the first task prompt is to let us pay attention to the mirror?"
"That's right." Jin Lei nodded, "During this period of time, we should have completely avoided all things that can reflect light, so there is no problem with this one."
"So no one knows what's behind the mirror?" Su Zimo muttered to himself, but no one heard him.
"Speaking of..." Mr. Fang Qin played with the folding shovel in his hand, and suddenly said, "Where do you guys think the large sum of money in the housekeeper's room came from?"
The trainees who changed their clothes and sat around the dining table looked like they were attending a certain banquet. After hearing Mr. Fang's question, they all started to think about it. The biggest discovery they made in the nightmare world the next day In addition to the speculation provided by Su Zimo, it should be the things in the butler's safe. Since the role of the ledger has been speculated, the money in the safe should also be a clue.
"Mr. Fang, what did you think of?" Su Zimo felt that this old man holding a Tai Chi sword was unusual from the very beginning.
"Well, after all, I've heard of similar things before." Mr. Fang glanced at the direction of the stairs, "It seems that there is a study on the third floor before?"
"Well, but it's a mess." Dr. Jin nodded.
"The old man hasn't visited the third floor yet, but he's quite interested in the study." As Mr. Fang said, he got up from the chair with the folding shovel in his hand.
"I'll take a look with you." Su Zimo also got up, not forgetting to take the "The Housekeeper's Self-cultivation" with him.
Not all the trainees were dispatched this time, only Dr. Jin, Bai Man and Su Zimo stood up together. After the four of them walked to the stairs, Liu Xu, who had been silent all this time, also got up and followed behind the four of them.
Su Zimo naturally welcomes an extra three-star ghost weapon to help out.
A group of people arrived at the third floor in silence. Su Zimo glanced at the corner of the second and third floors where the vase had been removed before, and then watched Dr. Jin and Bai Man walk into the family doctor's room on the third floor. They seem to want to discuss something.
Su Zimo followed Mr. Fang Qin into the study room next door. He thought that Liu Xu, who was following at the end, would also enter the study room, but he turned around without saying a word, and went straight to the main room where Su Zimo appeared at the beginning. bedroom.
"It's really tragic." After Fang Qin walked into the study, he saw various books scattered on the floor.
Su Zimo, who followed in, looked around and found that the entire study room was very large. The dilapidated bookshelves almost covered the four walls, and the various books scattered on the floor were also covered in a thick layer, making it impossible to see the floor. the whole picture.
Mr. Fang Qin didn't seem to have the heart to step on those books, but because he couldn't bend down, he could only carefully push the books on the ground aside with the folding shovel in his hand.Su Zimo, who discovered this, helped to pack up the nearby books, and cleared a way for the old man from the door to the sealed window.
In the process of packing those books, Su Zimo suddenly found that there were not only books scattered on the ground, but also some flat boxes the size of books, most of which were carved wooden boxes, but the wooden boxes were empty and contained nothing.
"This kind of collection box is specially used to store precious ancient books." Mr. Fang took one of the boxes from Su Zimo, and gently stroked the carvings on the box with his wrinkled hands, "not to mention the original treasures inside. Things, just this box is worth a lot of money."
"The old man suspects that the servants of the family stole the ancient books collected in the study and sold them?" Su Zimo quickly understood what Fang Qin thought.
"Well, in order to make quick money and keep secrets, maybe they took a shady way and sold them at a low price." The old man sighed, "Although it sounds absurd, I have heard of such things a lot. .”
"They are willing to keep these boxes, I am afraid it is to deceive people." Su Zimo put these heavy boxes back on the empty bookshelf one by one, "Whether it is the family doctor's work log, the ridiculous light and dark ledger, or these The empty shells that are left behind are all disguises created by the housekeeper and those servants in order to prevent the scandals they have done from being exposed."
"It's ridiculous." The old man took a deep breath, and slammed the broken wooden floor with the folding shovel in his hand.
Su Zimo also found a small side door opened between the bookshelves in the study. Because the door frame had fallen off, standing in front of the door, he could see the room next to the study. In that room were some completely damaged bookshelves. The stumps of plush toys and plastic toys should be the toy room Dr. Jin mentioned earlier.
The owner of the toy room should be the little girl in the group photo that Su Zimo saw in the master bedroom before, but he doesn't know why the owner of the villa specially added such a door between the study room and the toy room.
"what?"
At this time, Mr. Fang Qin suddenly found a stack of things from the floor full of books, and wanted to bend down to pick up the stack of papers with a surprised expression, but the movement was still a bit difficult.
"Xiao Su, help me." This time, Mr. Fang did not address Su Zimo as "Mr. Su".
Su Zimo helped pick up the stack of paper, and found that it turned out to be a stack of manuscript paper of some age, with vigorous pen writing on it, it is not surprising to say that it is an excellent copybook.
[It's better to walk on a lonely mountain than to live in a busy city. ]
"Maybe you haven't seen this before?" Mr. Fang Qin took the stack of manuscript papers and said with some emotion, "I once had an old friend who didn't get along very well. He once liked a book called "Notes on the Lonely Mountain" very much. This book, this book is neither an ancient book nor a famous work. It is just a "hypocritical" work about an old man who has been busy for half his life and is tired of everything and everyone around him, so he seeks quietness in the busy city. Of course, this is my opinion As for the evaluation of this book, my old friend at that time was just like the author of this book as a cold and weird old man who disliked everyone and everything, so that’s why I can resonate with this book, right?”
"At that time, my old friend Tebao read this book every day, and found a box that was more expensive than those, as if he wanted to make it a family heirloom." Mr. Fang Qin pointed to the books next to him. The book box used to collect estimates, "The most ridiculous thing is that he put the book on the shelf later and never read it again."
"Since I like it so much and resonate so much, why did you put the book on the shelf?" Su Zimo felt a little strange.
"Hahahaha." Mr. Fang Qin couldn't help laughing a few times, "Because the old man's daughter-in-law gave birth to a precious grandson for him, and that smelly old man with a weird temper goes around that little baby who peed on him every day, where is it? If you are willing to give up this 'bustling city', why would you want to find that 'lonely mountain'?"
Mr. Fang's eyes looked thoughtfully at the young man in glasses.
"But it doesn't seem to be the owner's collection of books." Su Zimo looked at the manuscript in the old man's hand, "It seems to be a handwritten manuscript."
"That would be terrible." Mr. Fang Qin's smile suddenly faded, and he looked at Su Zimo with a serious expression, "If the owner of this study is the author of "Notes on the Lonely Mountain", then it means... what we have experienced Do nightmare worlds really exist?"
"Okay, let's not talk about this." Old Master Fang coughed a few times, and handed the manuscript to Su Zimo, "There doesn't seem to be any other clues in this study. It's better to go down and meet other dolls first."
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
Just when Su Zimo and Mr. Fang were about to leave the study, Xiaohuo's shout suddenly came from the hall.Because I don't know what made a big boy yell so frightened, the old man supported by Su Zimo quickened his pace, and together with Dr. Jin and Liu Xu who ran out of other rooms, they hurried downstairs to have a look. .
"You really deserve to be the bully of Shoushan No. [-] Middle School." Du Xin looked at Su Zimo with glowing eyes, as if a pair of ears and a fluffy tail were moving.
"Shoushan No. [-] Middle School..." Cheng Yun, who was standing next to Du Xin, repeated it softly.
"Actually, it's too bad to have discovered this until now." Su Zimo would not be happy because of this, "It doesn't make much sense to be called Xueba, after all, everyone has something he is good at. And If the customs clearance fails, this title will be even more meaningless to people like me who don’t have enough nightmares.”
Su Zimo actually felt a little depressed. He always felt that he had unknowingly become the more active one among the trainees, but he was not a trainee yet.For Su Zimo, collecting ghost artifacts is the most important thing, but his intuition tells him that compared with the open first and third floors, there is a high possibility of ghost artifacts on the second floor, but if you want to enter the second floor, you must You have to follow the design of this nightmare world step by step.

"Just as you said."

Those in the chef’s room will wear chef’s clothes, those in the maid’s room will wear maid’s clothes, and those in the gardener’s room will wear the gardener tools, okay?"
"can."
To everyone's shock, the first practitioner who agreed aloud was actually Liu Xu who didn't speak more than 10 words from the beginning to the end!The dark-skinned trainee heaved a sigh of relief while putting away the red glove on his right hand.

"Yes, Captain Cheng is the only one besides me who has stayed in the same room three times among all the people present." Doctor Jin smiled flawlessly, "Look, I've already put on a white coat It's..."

"It's ridiculous." The old man took a deep breath, and slammed the broken wooden floor with the folding shovel in his hand.
Su Zimo also found a small side door opened between the bookshelves in the study. Because the door frame had fallen off, standing in front of the door, he could see the room next to the study. In that room were some completely damaged bookshelves. The stumps of plush toys and plastic toys should be the toy room Dr. Jin mentioned earlier.
The owner of the toy room should be the little girl in the group photo that Su Zimo saw in the master bedroom before, but he doesn't know why the owner of the villa specially added such a door between the study room and the toy room.
"what?"
At this time, Mr. Fang Qin suddenly found a stack of things from the floor full of books, and wanted to bend down to pick up the stack of papers with a surprised expression, but the movement was still a bit difficult.
"Xiao Su, help me." This time, Mr. Fang did not address Su Zimo as "Mr. Su".
Su Zimo helped pick up the stack of paper, and found that it turned out to be a stack of manuscript paper of some age, with vigorous pen writing on it, it is not surprising to say that it is an excellent copybook.
[It's better to walk on a lonely mountain than to live in a busy city. ]
"Maybe you haven't seen this before?" Mr. Fang Qin took the stack of manuscript papers and said with some emotion, "I once had an old friend who didn't get along very well. He once liked a book called "Notes on the Lonely Mountain" very much. This book, this book is neither an ancient book nor a famous work. It is just a "hypocritical" work about an old man who has been busy for half his life and is tired of everything and everyone around him, so he seeks quietness in the busy city. Of course, this is my opinion As for the evaluation of this book, my old friend at that time was just like the author of this book as a cold and weird old man who disliked everyone and everything, so that’s why I can resonate with this book, right?”
"At that time, my old friend Tebao read this book every day, and found a box that was more expensive than those, as if he wanted to make it a family heirloom." Mr. Fang Qin pointed to the books next to him. The book box used to collect estimates, "The most ridiculous thing is that he put the book on the shelf later and never read it again."
"Since I like it so much and resonate so much, why did you put the book on the shelf?" Su Zimo felt a little strange.
"Hahahaha." Mr. Fang Qin couldn't help laughing a few times, "Because the old man's daughter-in-law gave birth to a precious grandson for him, and that smelly old man with a weird temper goes around that little baby who peed on him every day, where is it? If you are willing to give up this 'bustling city', why would you want to find that 'lonely mountain'?"
Mr. Fang's eyes looked thoughtfully at the young man in glasses.
"But it doesn't seem to be the owner's collection of books." Su Zimo looked at the manuscript in the old man's hand, "It seems to be a handwritten manuscript."
"That would be terrible." Mr. Fang Qin's smile suddenly faded, and he looked at Su Zimo with a serious expression, "If the owner of this study is the author of "Notes on the Lonely Mountain", then it means... what we have experienced Do nightmare worlds really exist?"
"Okay, let's not talk about this." Old Master Fang coughed a few times, and handed the manuscript to Su Zimo, "There doesn't seem to be any other clues in this study. It's better to go down and meet other dolls first."
"Ah ah ah ah ah!"
Just when Su Zimo and Mr. Fang were about to leave the study, Xiaohuo's shout suddenly came from the hall.Because I don't know what made a big boy yell so frightened, the old man supported by Su Zimo quickened his pace, and together with Dr. Jin and Liu Xu who ran out of other rooms, they hurried downstairs to have a look. .
