"OK."

Chen Jiang smiled and nodded without speaking again, and walked into the house with Scar Dog.

Just walked into the back room.

Then he saw the barber put down what he was supposed to be eating, took out a gold-rimmed book from the side with a serious face, put it on the table, looked at Chen Jiang and said seriously.

"Although I don't know who introduced you here."

"But since we can find this place, it means that these two brave men are destined to me."

"I have a secret. This secret was passed down from my ancestors. In the basement of an old castle outside the city, there are treasures left by my ancestors. My ancestors were workers who built that castle."

"While building the basement, I unearthed a treasure underground."

"But the owner of the castle at that time would search the workers every time they left the castle. My ancestors had no way to bring that treasure out."

"So my ancestors chose to have that treasure embedded in the basement wall."

"This matter has become an obsession of our generation and has been passed down from generation to generation."

"As for what that treasure is, I actually don't know. If you find that treasure, remember to come back and tell me. It will also stop my thoughts."

"I'll give you that treasure. At least I don't need to pass this secret on to my son."

"You know, keeping secrets is a tiring thing."

"Warrior, get ready to go now!"

"..."

Scargo looked at the barber in front of him with a strange expression, and did not speak immediately. This passage was simply too familiar. Although he had never heard it before, it sounded like a mission line from a game plot.

The man in front of me... looks like he is just an NPC who issues tasks.

After Chen Jiang was silent for a while, he slowly took out a pistol from his arms and placed it on the table: "Do you recognize this thing?"

"Hero, you don't want to attack me, do you?"

The barber said confidently: "I can't be attacked. If you don't believe me, you can shoot me."

"boom."

Gunshots suddenly sounded in the empty room.

I saw a bloody hole suddenly appeared on the barber's calf. The barber was obviously stunned for a moment, and then his expression instantly twisted together. He covered his calf with an extremely painful expression and began to scream.

"Ah...it hurts, it hurts, it hurts so much!"

"How can you attack me, damn it."

Chen Jiang did not speak anymore, but stretched out his right hand and stroked the man's head, instantly healing the injury on the man's calf, and then said with a calm face: "Now you can tell me, about the player

Something about that?”

"Eh?"

The barber suddenly felt the pain in his leg disappear, and subconsciously looked down. After seeing that his wound had healed on its own, he was stunned for a moment, and when he heard a voice ringing next to his ear, he shrank instantly.

"What player is not a player?"

"Brave, I don't understand what you are talking about."

But when he saw the black hole of the gun that was raised again in front of him, he immediately became emotional and said with an ugly bitter look on his face: "Brother, what are you going to do? I really don't understand what you mean."

"Do you know Jiaye Company?"

"You know, that blood-sucking medical company has to come here every day to draw blood for me, because the people in this company who sell blood supplements are making crazy money."

"What is your relationship with this company?"

"Brother, I just opened a barber shop, what can I have to do with this kind of company?"

"I find that you are a bit rebellious."

Scargou frowned, grabbed the barber's head and smashed it on the table: "You answer whatever Brother Jiang asks you. How come this little mouth is so good at turning words?"

"Can you understand what I'm saying?"

However, when his head hit the table, no sound was made. Instead, the table sank directly into it.

Scar Dog looked at his hand with some confusion.

"hey-hey."

The barber raised his head and said proudly: "This table is fake, it's a doll. It's soft and doesn't hurt at all."

"..."

The next second——

The barber was kicked by the scarred dog and fell against the wall.

"Does it hurt now?"

"It hurts, it hurts."

The barber immediately got up from the ground, leaned against the wall with his face covered in blood, took a deep breath and said hurriedly: "Don't hit me, I'll tell you anything."

"I'm really just a barber."

"At the beginning, someone came to me and offered me a part-time job. As you can see, if someone walks into the barber shop and says he wants to take on a task, tell him this."

"Every time, 1,000 star coins."

"Of course I wouldn't turn down such a good thing, so I took it. At first I thought it was a role-playing game like a live-action script."

"Later I discovered that those people often called themselves players in words and discussed bosses and the like. I felt something was wrong because there were more people coming to me to take over tasks, and it had been going on for almost half a year."

"Although I felt something was wrong, I didn't delve into it. After all, I only have a lot of money."

"It went on like this until...you guys came."

He is not a fool. At this time, he has naturally discovered that these two people are not players anymore, which means that he should not say this to these two people. What the hell is going on.

"so."

Chen Jiang nodded thoughtfully, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Why were you so sure just now that I won't attack you?"

"Because those players once said in a conversation that if they hadn't been unable to attack NPCs, they would have been killed by the warehouse manager."

"Then after so many times, no player actually attacked me, so I became more convinced that players could not attack NPCs."

"Then you have a really big heart."

Scar Dog looked at the barber speechlessly: "Now that you have discovered that there is something wrong with these people, they look like real players, how dare you continue to tell them that story? Don't you feel scared when this kind of game invades reality?"

"You should at least call the police or something, right?"

"Call the police? How is that possible!"

The barber shook his head seriously and said: "If you call the police, my wealth will be cut off. Seven or eight people come to me every month to take on tasks. One time is 1,000 star coins, and eight times is 8,000 star coins."

.”

"Without this income, my store will collapse."

"Besides, what's so scary about games invading reality? The rent for my house is 4,500 a month. I pay it once a year. I have to pay next year's rent soon. If I can't pay, I will be forced to move out. This is the worst damn thing.

horrifying."

"okay."

Chen Jiang then stood up, patted his clothes and was about to walk out. Suddenly something occurred to him, and he paused and turned his head to look at the barber: "Give me the payment account, and I'll transfer you some hard-earned money."

"Ah? That's great. Thank you boss. Boss, you told me earlier. If you said this earlier, I would have done all the tricks from the beginning."

"Ding, 1,000,000 star coins have been credited to your account."

"Thank you boss... I'm sorry! One zero, two zeros, three zeros, one million? Boss, did you transfer one million star coins to me?"

"Um."

Chen Jiang nodded lightly, looked at the barber in front of him, smiled softly and said: "You don't need to thank me, I should thank you. I don't have a kind heart often, and you just happened to touch me once."

"Of course, if you plan to spend the money successfully, escape from the city as much as possible."

"The further away the better."

Then he didn't stop any longer, turned around and walked out of the inner room with a big stride, and walked towards the outside of the barber shop.

The situation is probably clear.

Those monsters are just shells. They only have combat capabilities when they are controlled by the player. When they are not controlled by the player, they are just corpses.

And those players obviously don't know that they are in the real world.

Perhaps those players thought they were in a virtual game and the passers-by around them were all NPCs, but little did they know that the passers-by around them were actually real people.

Jiaye Company’s method is very powerful.

He always thought that these monsters were from Jiaye Company, but now it seems... they are also from Jiaye Company, but not all of them.

Jiaye Company issues tasks to these players, allowing them to control the monster bodies provided by them and fight for them.
