Su Wu noticed that the simulator’s official name for Lantern Gui was ‘Eye Jui’.
This title may not seem appropriate at first glance.
Why does the simulator call red lanterns all over the sky ‘eye tricks’?
Are those red lanterns strange eyes?
If the red lanterns covering most or even the entire city of Mingzhou were just a weird eye, how big would it be?
Or is this weird thing itself made up of countless lanterns?
An indescribable shadow lingered in Su Wu's heart. He shuddered and shook all the speculations out of his mind to stop his random thoughts.
He looked at the dial again.
This time, among the items that can be brought out in the simulated future, the big rooster that has been captured by Su Wu is not included.
I don’t know if it’s because the big rooster is a living creature, or because even though he caught the big rooster, the simulator still didn’t judge the chicken as his property.
The items that can be taken out this time are all things that Su Wu had brought with him before.
Wallets, mobile phones, gold, etc.
The simulator gives extremely harsh exchange ratios for gold, silver, currency and other items that can be circulated.
For example, to bring out one gram of gold, three hundred simulation coins are needed.
Taking out three hundred dollar bills also requires 300 simulated coins.
At this stage, the value of 300 simulated coins is far more than 300 yuan, and it is impossible to exchange it even for 30,000 yuan.
In addition to these currencies that can be circulated, the simulator's exchange rate for other items is relatively loose.
But Su Wu didn't need those things now, so he skipped this option.
The batch of candles Su Wu bought outside had been used up. The last time he rushed to the girl and took away her pet.
You can't be so reckless next time, at least you have to save that girl.
——If she dies, the big cock will most likely die soon too.
Therefore, Su Wu decided to take a break tonight and wait until he comes back from buying candles tomorrow before starting the simulation.
After conducting so many simulations in a row, he was under great mental pressure and needed to rest to relieve himself.
…
On the 14th, the weather was sunny.
The yellow water stains on the wall continued to deepen, and the mildew stains continued to thicken and began to spread throughout the room.
Su Wu's room was filled with boxes of candles.
Each box of candles is forty centimeters long, almost as thick as a drinking glass.
He sat in front of his already very messy desk, carefully observing the map of Mingzhou City, and from time to time he picked up a pen to draw a path on the map.
After a long time, Su Wu put the map into his backpack and thought: "Start the simulation!"
"Welcome to Perfect Life Simulator!"
"Your wallet balance is 816 Yuan Yu, and personal life simulation consumes 1 Yuan Yu."
"Whether Yuan Yu is consumed to bring real items into the simulation game."
"Yes." Su Wu chose to bring the imperial bell and a box of candles into the simulation.
Bringing a candle into the simulation requires one Yuan Yu.
To bring a box of candles into it, you need five Yuan Yu - there are twenty candles in one box.
Be ready.
Darkness instantly covered the place.
By the time Su Wu came to his senses, he was already in the small temple.
The flame on the lampstand burned silently, as if it didn't need fuel to stay bright.
Or maybe the fuel was something Su Wu couldn't see.
Being in the temple, a sense of security suddenly emerged in Su Wu's heart, but he had no time to enjoy this stability. First, he took out the candles that were specially tied with tape from the box, then picked up the mobile phone on the ground and checked the time.
It's now 10:43 at night.
There are still twelve minutes left before the critical moment of ten fifty-five.
Below the time displayed on the screen, there are messages inviting people to join the work group that are popping up one after another.
Su Wu ignored those weird invitation messages and put his phone in his pocket.
Then he lit a candle and took it in his hand. With the bundle of nineteen spare candles on his back and the imperial bell hanging around his neck, he ran out of the small temple while the neon lights were shining.
The Imperial Bell has no effect on ‘Eye Trick’.
Although he started simulating it from the archive of the small temple, Shadow Trick was isolated from the scope of Eye Trick's influence and could not appear here.
But Su Wu insisted on spending a Yuan Yu to bring the Emperor Bell into the game. What he wanted to guard against was not only the shadow ghosts, but also other ghosts that might be circulating in Mingzhou City.
For example, there is a strange group of jobs that will appear at any time.
Under the premise of ensuring that the candle would not be blown out, Su Wu rushed to the car as quickly as possible, opened the door, pulled out the headless body, squatted down under the candle, turned the car key, and started the car in one go.
The car started smoothly and gradually accelerated.
The engine roared, and the scenery on both sides of the vehicle turned into colorful strips of light.
Veteran driver (green): You are proficient in various ground vehicles with steering functions, can skillfully pass through various dangerous road conditions, and fully utilize the performance of the vehicle.
Su Wu used the last green talent upgrade spell to give the old driver this talent.
It has to be said that the gap between white talent and green talent is visible to the naked eye.
On the ground today, whether it is cars, armored vehicles, bicycles, electric vehicles, or livestock such as cattle and horses, as long as they have steering capabilities and are ground vehicles, Su Wu can perfectly control them!
Cars are racing on the road.
At 10:40, Su Wu had already driven through the intersection where RT-Mart was.
At this time, the neon lights were still shining, and the signs of the evil eyes had not yet appeared.
Su Wu saw a figure holding a big cock and walking with her head down on the side of the street. She turned the steering wheel slightly and parked the car directly in front of the girl.
He pushed open the car door, holding a swaying red candle, and shouted to the girl: "It's very dangerous here, why are you running around alone on the street?"
Aren’t you afraid of being plucked off your head by a lantern from the sky?!”
While Su Wu was speaking, the neon signs and lights around the street suddenly dimmed. In the darkness, only the lampposts shining straight from the cars and the candle in his hand could bring people a sense of security.
The girl was startled by the car that suddenly jumped out in front of her.
Under the light, she couldn't see clearly Su Wu sitting in the car, but she could hear the concern in his words. Her eyes turned red and she was about to speak.
Su Wu said again: "Hurry up and get to the car. By the time the lantern rises, it will be too late!"
His words contained important information and gave the girl a strong hint.
Let the girl believe that red lanterns rising in the sky is a terrible thing. The reason why Mingzhou City is like this is precisely because of those red lanterns!
This is also true.
However, Su Wu didn't have time to explain to the girl at the moment. His words were completely in a strong commanding tone. This tone would make people who were confused at the moment subconsciously choose to rely on him.
An electronic voice sounded vaguely at this time: "You have realized the temporary talent: the art of speaking (white)."
"The art of speaking (white): Your words are easier to convince.
If the person you are talking to is your enemy, your words will make it easier for the enemy to become angry and even lose their mind under the constant stimulation of words."
