07. The carrot of Damocles
"The ravine of the times lies in front of everyone, and the main mission that has not been updated for a long time is like the carrot of Damocles, hanging under everyone's crotch. Blazing God's heart gradually sank. Could it be that he guessed wrong?"
A deep voice slowly echoed in the room.
"Holy shit, I thought it was the system narration." Lord Grim jumped in fright, and then he realized that Mu Su was dubbing the voice.
Chi Shen helplessly held his forehead, but he had to admit that he thought it was a narration just now.
Could it be that my guess was wrong?
"The Carrot of Damocles... I know what the Sword of Damocles, the Sword of Cantilever, Carrot... are?"
Wen Xiang is a good girl who always asks questions.
If a nurse from the hospital was present, he would have stopped her from asking at the top of his lungs.
Unfortunately not.
That day, the men here finally remembered the fear and pain that Mu Su had once dominated.
Musu didn't give them a chance to stop him, and started talking eloquently. He looked as if he had talked about it countless times.
Mu Su cleared his throat and spoke slowly in a low tone like telling a horror story: "Why don't you search for Damocles' Carrot on a search engine? You will feel like you have been reborn after reading it."
Several people looked at each other, opened the search engine one after another, and entered the keywords given by Mu Su.
A few minutes later, several people returned to the game, looking at each other in silence.
Chi Shen moved his butt uneasily and hesitated for a while. Wen Xiang marveled at the novelty of the story. Lord Grim was restless, as if the carrot was under his butt. Finally he gritted his teeth and stood up, instead of sitting down, and spoke.
Said: "This has nothing to do with the content of our game, right? Why do we have to listen to this guy instilling such heavy taste into us!?"
Smell the fragrance and eat the potato chips I found somewhere.
Mu Su glanced sideways at Lord Grim: "Can't you accept this?"
"You are crazy!" Lord Grim suddenly stood up, broke the silence, and shouted at Mu Su.
That story caused an indelible blow to Lord Grim.
Mu Su's face was full of shock: "How do you know! Did the hospital send you to arrest me? Huh, I knew you would not be willing to let me escape. Let me tell you, I will never tell you that it was Dington.
I release..."
"You can play with this lunatic if you like, I won't do it anymore!" Lord Grim interrupted Mu Su with an angry roar, covering his buttocks with his hands intentionally or unintentionally, and rushed out of the door.
"Hey, hey, I'm a psychopath, not a lunatic. Crazy and lunatic are not the same thing."
bang
Lord Grim slammed the door, and the loud sound of the door closing shook the whole room.
"That's what you mean." Mu Su finished speaking angrily.
The room was quiet for a while. Mu Su blinked and turned to look at the other two people: "Then let me tell you another story to lighten the atmosphere? My nickname of Little Angel who answers all questions is not well-deserved.
.”
"Cough cough cough cough cough..." Blazing God coughed violently like asthma.
Wen Xiang also handed the bag of chips to Mu Su, hoping to block his mouth.
Mu Su quickly took it and was about to say thank you when his nose suddenly felt itchy. He took a few short and rapid breaths, raised his head and grinned.
"Ah sneeze!"
Mu Su sneezed heavily and rubbed his nose. Fortunately, there was no mucus. He handed the potato chips to Wen Xiang with a bit of embarrassment. He looked sincere, as if he didn't mean it.
"No... no need, I'll give it all to you." Wen Xiang came to his senses in a daze and shook his head in refusal.
Mu Su was very happy and said: "You are such a kind person."
Then he started eating.
The taste is the same as in reality, but this is just an illusion caused by the game mask stimulating the brain nerves, and it cannot really satisfy hunger. At most, eating too much will give people the illusion of fullness.
Musu thought to himself, it was like reaching out to touch a hippo's butt and retracting his hand regardless of whether feces spurted out.
He's not very good at using metaphors.
Seeing that Mu Su was quiet again, Chi Shen and Wen Xiang looked at each other and said that they had finally settled down. If he continued talking like this, the player might lose one after falling asleep.
At this moment, news of the main quest update suddenly appeared.
[The main mission has been updated]
Back home (completed)
Go to school (complete)
Work (in progress)
When the sun disappeared, the street lights outside the window gradually turned on, and the room became dark, the task update finally came belatedly.
Blazing God's tense bronze face softened a little, and after thinking for a while he stood up: "Let's go talk to Lord Grim, you just wait here." Then the two of them left the room one after the other.
Mu Su was left entangled with the potato chips.
Lord Grim shouted from outside the door, and his voice gradually became quieter. After listening to the fragrance for a while, he felt bored and returned to the room. As soon as he entered, he saw Mu Su with his back to the door, crouching in front of the case and writing something with his head down.
"What is this?" Wen Xiang leaned behind him, tilted his head and asked.
"My autobiography "The Biography of Mu Su Su"." Mu Su licked his upper lip and wrote seriously: "I plan to upload it to ehmo, and I will become a great god soon hehehehe."
"But this is a game...it's useless for you to write," Wen Xiang asked hesitantly.
Mu Su was stunned for a long time: "Hey, why didn't I think of that?" Then he rolled up the paper into a ball in frustration, folded his arms and started sulking.
By this time, the blind man could also see the problem with Mu Su.
It's not really crazy. A thought appears in Wen Xiang's mind for no reason, and it seems to have taken root and cannot be dispelled.
So she asked directly and said cautiously: "Just now Lord Grim said that you seem to be mentally ill..."
"Hey, how can you talk like this? What do you mean it seems like?" Mu Su became unhappy. "There is no likeness."
Wen Xiang opened her mouth and didn't know where to complain. So she simply turned to ask other questions: "But don't mentally ill people usually speak very fast and be independent and irritable?"
"I'm not a crosstalk actor. Why are you talking so quickly? Do you want me to smoke, drink, perm my hair, cut off the kidneys, roast them, eat them, and then give me a name for the dish and a poem?"
Since it is difficult to come into contact with this type of people in daily life, Wen Xiang, who is already very curious, became even more curious.
At this time, Blazing God and Lord Grim returned to the room one after another. Lord Grim still had anger on his face, but he didn't even look at Mu Su.
Chishen turned on the lamp next to the wall, and the dim light shone down: "I have contacted you about the convenience store job. You can use your mobile phone to write down the number. 114514..."
Mu Su noticed: "Huh?"
Blazing God paused and continued: "...12450."
Mu Su trembled: "Insolent!"
The three of them ignored Mu Su who was pretending to be crazy and acted foolishly. After saving the number to a mobile phone that he did not know how to use, Chishen looked at Mu Su and asked politely: "Do you want to come with us?"
"I'm going to make a lot of money." Mu Su blurted out subconsciously.
So they subconsciously thought of what Mu Su had said about becoming a Cowherd at the beginning, and their eyes became a little strange.
Chapter completed!
