The Trial Game of Life (renjian shi lian youxi)

Chapter 3 - Eiya Castle



When Tangcuo’s eyes were restored again, he stood in a strange room.

The room is not large, about ten square meters is equipped with a wooden bed, a simple bathroom separated by a fan-shaped glass door, and a small round table with two chairs. Looking at the decoration style, the bathroom is very modern, still separated from wet and dry, but the round table and wooden bed reveal the smell of the period of the Republic of China, and the floor of the room is old like an abandoned loft in a small western-style house.

Weird style.

Tang Cuo only thought a little, and quickly walked to the desk because there was a stained glass window. Opening the window and looking out, a strange city suddenly appeared.

No amount of thinking is worse than seeing it with my own eyes, and it was only then that Tang Cuo really had a real sense of stepping into another world.

A huge black city stood towering under the night.

It is black because all the houses and roads in this city are black, and the atmosphere of the whole city is solemn and solemn. But this is not accurate enough, because the roofs of some houses are covered with colorful glazed tiles, scattered like gems in huge cities.

And here, the lights are bright. The faint hilarity came from all corners of the city. As if every light was on, there was a figure shaking.

This is a living city.

There are western spires and towers, and there are also Chinese-style stacked pavilions.

There is an ancient carriage passing through the black stone road in front, and there is also a floating track filled with a sense of future technology. The lights in the car are like the webbing of stars, like a flying black dragon.

It is now dark, and there is no star or moon in the sky, but Tangcuo’s vision is still clear. Because there are not only street lights on the streets, a huge glowing sphere is also adorned on the spire of the tower in the distance.

It’s like the Pearl of the Night, and there are more than one. Judging by Tang Cuo’s visual observations, they are evenly and regularly distributed in the city.

Tang Cuo’s room is on the third floor. The piece he is in is like a residential area, a Western-style building, and they are only two or three floors high. The black stone street downstairs is very long. From time to time, pedestrians pass by, both men and women, young and old, dressed in modern style, but a little more style.

Tattered cloth strips, crumpled cloaks, camouflage jackets, etc., are all available. Tang Cuo has only seen this colorful fashion show in the novice area of ​​large online games.

Is this the Yongye City?

Where are they, Chi Yan?

After a moment, Tang Cuo turned his attention to the house again, and quickly locked the coat rack at the door. There hung a small golden bell, except for the size, exactly the same as Tang Cuo saw in the white fog space.

But Tang Cuo did not intend to ignore it, but directly grasped the door handle. Pressed down, but couldn’t push.

“Ding–” The bell rang by itself.

“Here is the broadcast guide for the survival of Yongye City for you: please open the system panel and complete the basic settings according to the current character points. The time limit is ten minutes. If in doubt, press 1; if the system fails, press 4. Survival is not easy, Please cherish life.”

What the hell?

Tang Cuo narrowed his eyes, but he didn’t see any system panel from beginning to end. Why is this broken game so annoying that you can’t die well, it’s more trouble than alive.

Thinking so, Tang Cuo even wanted to go to bed to sleep first.

He searched impatiently again in the room, even pulling up his sleeves and looking for any button on his arm, but found nothing.

Perhaps this broken system is voice.

“open.”

no response.

“Open.”

It doesn’t seem to be in English either.

“go to hell.”

“Please use civilized words to create a beautiful Yongye City together.”

Tang Cuo was too lazy to vomit, closed his eyes and took a deep breath, but when he opened his eyes, he found that there was an additional holographic display in front of him. And no matter where Tang Cuo looks, the panel is displayed directly opposite him, and it seems to follow his line of sight.

As for the opening and closing buttons? Perhaps it was the time he closed his eyes, more than three seconds.

The system panel is not much different from what Tang Cuo has seen when playing online games. It is divided into three parts. [Characters] [Skills] [Tasks] can be switched between each other. At the bottom is an independent equipment bar, ten grids, but all are empty. Tang Cuoyuan wanted to reach out, but he found that he just had this idea, and the [Character] interface was brought up by himself.

What to add? Does the negative score decrease?

Tang Cuo opened the skill and task panels again and found that they were all blank. Yes, he turned back to the character interface, facing these three simple and easy-to-understand items, and fell into rare reflection.

Intellect-8 may become mentally retarded, and Charisma-8 may become ugly, so Tang Cuo chose to use force-8 for three seconds. As for equal division, it is impossible to divide equally, Tang Cuo refused to mean.

“Ding–“

“It is detected that the player completes the basic settings and immediately generates a character image!”

So “click” unlocked, “bang”, Tangcuo fell. The pain of death returned to him in an instant, grabbing his internal organs and depriving him of physical strength and energy. Tide-like fatigue followed.

The sweat soon wet the broken hair of Tang Cuo Jiao Jiao, he relieved his breath, did not rush to sit up, and recalled the panel and glanced again.

【task】

Alive.

The mission has been updated, but it’s as simple as hell. The only thing to be thankful is that although the pain came back, the wound did not follow, but was weak.

But there was nothing to eat in the room, there was no change of laundry, and he wanted to live, which meant Tangcuo had to get out of the room.

Oh wrong, Tangcuo didn’t bring nothing, he brought a survival assessment report.

After a while, the pain eased and physical strength recovered. Tang Cuo climbed from the ground and picked up the “brick” again. As the only property at present, Tang Cuo decided to take it with him, and he could use it as a weapon when necessary, and he had seen it, and there was not even a piece of toilet paper in the toilet.

Wait, can this thing be put into the equipment bar?

When Tang Cuo thought about it, the assessment report disappeared from his hand. Then open the equipment bar, there is a book pattern in the first space.

He tried again to take it out of the equipment bar, and in the blink of an eye, it came back. and so–

Is it really a piece of equipment?

Tang Cuo thought of God, and suddenly, Tuk Tuk knocked on the door.

Who will it be?

He narrowed his eyes slightly, the cold light flashed in his eyes. But soon, this cold light was depressed by laziness, and he stepped forward to open the door casually.

“Hello.” The man has a fat and grinning face, in his forties, with thin hair but a gentle smile. Wearing a whitish blue tooling, a vegetable basket in his arms, every calluse on the rough palm reveals the ordinary.

“Something?” Tang Cuo’s attitude was cold.

“Are you new here? Introduce yourself. My name is Lu Wenming and I live in this street. I want to ask if you need help?” The middle-aged man smiled and took out one from the vegetable basket The promotional sheet was stuffed with Tang Cuo, saying: “Look, you can exchange points for currency. One point can be exchanged for 10,000 RMB. It’s very cost-effective. You don’t have anything in the room now? You can buy it in RMB. You can stay here with money. Survived.”

Tang Cuo held the thin piece of paper and could not see the emotion.

Lu Wenming is very patient and continues to say: “I don’t hide you, I don’t want to report that there is no help for people here, but I will also charge a fee from it. I can’t fight, I can’t do anything else. People are different, the points will be earned soon. And the newcomers have a protection mechanism, only need to deduct five points in the first month. If you exchange money with me now, it is nothing more than paying a little extra fee, but I can give you Provide guidance for newcomers.”

“Guidelines?”

“You just came here and don’t know? What is the place of Yongye City, how to use the points, how to do the tasks, where to buy things, you can know it for yourself after a while, but if you know it earlier, prepare more? Look, I didn’t hide it. We are straightforward and honest in business.”

“Credit?”

“what?”

Lu Wenming was stunned. He had been in this business for so long, and he still heard the newcomer open the credit for the first time. Back to God, he blinked his eyes, looked at Tang Cuo with a smile, and said: “Why can’t you take credit, Yongye City never takes credit. After all, no one knows whether the person in front of him will disappear tomorrow, credit How can I return the outgoing account? I can’t take credit, I can only get a loan shark and turn it up five times.”

Tangcuo: “Oh.”

Perhaps Tang Cuo’s reaction was really different from that of other newcomers. Lu Wenming carefully looked at his expression, and the smile on his face converged. He considered it and asked, “Do you think about it again?”

Tang Cuo: “I think about it.”

“Are you going to buy it?”

“No, I plan to borrow.”

The next second, while the landing civilization hadn’t responded yet, Tang Cuo grabbed his hand and dragged him into the house, closed the door, pressed it against the door panel, and cut his hands. The sound of closing the door was very soft, and Tang Cuo deliberately withdrew the moment the door closed.

The food basket fell to the ground, and the paper was scattered all over. Lu Wenming exclaimed, but was covered.

“If you cooperate well, you can live. If I guess right, everyone has died once, and once again, the end should be worse than death.”

“Um! Um!” Lu Wenming nodded frantically.

Tang Cuo only released his hand and covered his hand, but only moved a little down. The cold fingertips stayed on Lu Wenming’s neck, as if he could twist it off with just a little effort.

Lu Wenming cold sweat DC. Which newcomer was not in perfect condition when he first came here? Either you don’t feel at all like a mental retardation, or you are frightened by the shadow of death, and even a determined person needs time to get used to it, and a little coax can get hooked, but what about this one behind him?

Looking back at the situation we just met, Lu Wenming was so angry that he thumped his chest in his heart. He was supposed to leave Tangcuo the first time he noticed the difference. What made him feel lucky?

“I, I really didn’t lie to you. The current exchange ratio of Yongye City is 10,000 to 20,000. I charged a handling fee and I have to pay a part. In the end, I may not even have one point in my hand! The newcomer finally I will change it. Although there is not a lot of 10,000 yuan, but you can stay through the first few days. I am also a life-seeking. You are good, don’t worry about me…”

“RMB is useless, points are hard currency.”

Lu Wenming was stunned, because Tang Cuo used affirmative sentences. At this moment, he almost doubted whether Tang Cuo was a newcomer. He pressed his lips tightly for a few seconds, and finally shuddered to answer: “It’s not really useless…really! Most of the daily necessities and food are still bought with money. The points are very precious, so the money is still useful, just ,just……”

“It’s just not that useful.” Purchasing power drops, but it’s better than toilet paper.

“Yes, yes, that’s it.” Lu Wenming echoed and actively cooperated: “Anyway, you still need to use the money. How about I sell you 20,000 at the market price? If you don’t earn you a point, you should pay it. Friends, no no no, 30,000! How about 30,000?”

Tang Cuo finally let him go and said, “Twenty thousand, borrow three days.”

Lu Wenming regained his freedom and wiped Khan exaggeratedly. He didn’t bargain with Tang Cuo now, and picked up the vegetable basket with a smile and took the money out of it. He took a small look at Tang Cuo while digging it out, and before handing two stacks of money in front of Tang Cuo, the pleasing face quickly piled up.

“You count?” he said.

Tang Cuo didn’t answer, but Lu Wenming saw a hair in his heart, and the hand holding the money shrank back. But at this moment, Tang Cuo reached out again.

Lu Wenming’s retracted hand was firmly grasped, and he felt a pucker in his heart, and he immediately showed a fierce light with a pleasing and frightened face. The change was instantaneous, Lu Wenming loosened the RMB, withdrew a card from it in a flash, and threw it to Tangcuo with a scream.

“go with!”

The card spins in mid-air, but it plays like a slow motion in the eyes, allowing Tang Cuo to see the contents of the card.

Tarot cards, magician.

Unknown battle mode means endless danger.

Tang Cuo quickly retreated, and at the same time his wrist shook, and two stacks of RMB were thrown at the Tarot cards. The banknotes scattered, but they caught fire when they passed the tarot cards.

If a banknote is a fire, two hundred sheets are countless fires. All the banknotes spontaneously ignited without wind, and in the next second, they grew stronger again. The strong heat wave made Tang Cuo, who had left early, almost roasted on the spot, and even smelled of a burnt hair.

“Fool!” Lu Wenming raised his **** to Tangcu with a sullen face. He had never seen such a stupid method of death with a firecracker trick to fire a woman.

This is also true of the newcomer, who was accidentally caught by him just now, it must be that the little white face is too deceptive. It was obviously a villain that set fire to robbery, and looked like a child talking under the national flag.

But to think about it, Lu Wenming has been much cautious at the moment, raising his hand to recall the Tarot card and turning around, he didn’t want to understand the whole process of Tangcuo’s burning. However, at the moment he grasped the door handle, a heavy object flew into the air, hitting the back of his head.

“Boom!” Lu Wenming nibbled on the door again, his head almost cracked, and he rolled all over with pain.

Fireball dissipates directly as the user falls to the ground, as if everything just now was an illusion. Tang Cuo walked over casually, picked up the “bricks” on the ground, and smiled for the first time.

He looked at Lu Wenming: “Foolish.”

Lu Wenming was very angry when he was in pain. How could he not expect Tang Cuo to be completely harmless under the fireball attack? Is he still a newcomer? !

He looked up in horror but saw Tang Cuo behind him, the glass door of the bathroom open. There is only one truth-Tangcuo hid in the bathroom when the fire burned. And Lu Wenming hurried away, did not wait for the fire to flood in, so was KO on the spot.

Having figured this out, Lu Wenming suddenly lost his face, and he knew he had no chance of making a comeback. On the mind, even luck, he is not as good as this young man in front of him.

Tang Cuo is not good, Lu Wenming is not sure about his next destiny.

“I just want to know, how do you doubt me?”

“Occupational disease.”

It is impossible for Lu Wenming to know that Tang Cuo is a detective. He observes everything and doubts everything.

In such an unusual city, ordinary people are not ordinary. Lu Wenming seemed to tell the truth about the rebate, retreating in order to gain Tang Cuo’s trust step by step, but did not know Tang Cuo has always been stingy about this.

Lu Wenming didn’t know that before Tang Cuo’s newcomer entered the Yongye City, they also triggered the lucky turntable because of poor performance. After a game, they are strictly not pure newcomers.

What he is even less likely to know is that Tang Cuo’s points are negative, and this business cannot be done from the beginning.

Tang Cuo was not interested in explaining so much, and took a look at the system panel.

Health: 3%

*You are one step away from death.

The author has something to say that the basic settings of Yongye City will be unfolded one by one in the next, because this is a new world, involving more aspects, so if you see something that is not mentioned, it is probably behind and piled up. It will be boring together.

In a word, this is probably a “dark black utopia”.
