Just after dinner, Feng Bujue knocked on the door of the landlord Aunt Liu's house, carrying a bunch of things in big and small bags.
Although Brother Jue has a maverick side, he naturally understands the ways of the world, and he also knows how to adjust his words and deeds when he is required to do something.
On this day, he went to Aunt Liu's house with a bunch of gifts and had a chat with the couple.
The things he bought were neither expensive nor cheap.
That's the thing about giving gifts... if they are expensive, they won't be able to accept them; if they are cheap, you won't be able to get them. It's actually not easy to know the exact scale, but... Feng Bujue has a pretty good grasp of it.
He sat in the room for a short time. Over a cup of tea, he said what needed to be said in a few words. He thanked his two neighbors and elders for the care they had given him over the years, and then resigned and went back.
So... what was he going to do?
Some people may have thought that Feng Bujue would move.
The money he won on the Song of Songs, combined with his own savings, was enough for him to buy a nice property in City S, so he was ready to stop renting.
Of course, this doesn't mean that it can be moved; not to mention that he hasn't even chosen a house to buy yet. Even after buying it, he still has to wait for decoration, and it will take half a year to complete the decoration... Optimistic estimate
, if he wants to officially move out, he will have to wait until the second half of next year at the earliest.
However, since he had a plan, he still had to talk to Aunt Liu and his wife first. Saying hello in advance would also make it easier for them to find a new home.
To make a long story short, that day he went out in the morning, drove around for a while, and it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon when he got home.
When he sat down on the sofa, he let out a deep breath.
"Huh...Although I have noticed it a long time ago, it still feels a little uncomfortable when others say it..." Feng Bujue looked at the ceiling and muttered to himself.
The thing he was talking about was nothing else... it was about his "parents", or parents in this universe.
Obviously, he had realized something long before today.
In terms of Feng Bujue's abilities, it was really easy to find out whether he was related to his parents by blood. He could do it in elementary school.
However, he never investigated and confirmed this matter.
Because... from an emotional point of view, he is not willing to pierce this layer of window paper.
Feng Bujue is a person who rarely shows his emotions, so he also cherishes the hard-won close relationships in his life.
Brother Jue is more willing to believe in human nature than blood ties.
He would rather regard the couple who raised him as relatives than a man who is a stranger to him in the parallel universe.
However, when his two relatives passed away, he did not show much sadness in front of others.
During those days, many people pointed fingers at him, thinking that his relationship with his parents was not harmonious, so he left home to live alone before graduating from high school, and even refused financial support from his parents.
Only Wang Tanzhi and Bao Qing know Feng Bujue's true inner thoughts...
I'm afraid... Feng Bujue had already realized it at that time. Only by keeping those two ordinary people away from him could they live in peace.
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.
Now, after knowing some things about "karma", Feng Bujue finally understood the reason why his parents died.
But now he still won't feel sad.
Because long before our story began, he had already buried his sorrow with a smile.
…………
"Hey, they're all here."
In the evening, at 11:50, in the game world, in Xiaotan's conference room.
When Feng Bujue walked in, his eyes were still those lazy fish eyes, and there was still that vague smile hanging on the corner of his mouth. If he didn't tell himself, no one would know what he went through during the day.
What, what I thought about, what I carried...
Of course, he won't say anything because he is Feng Bujue.
"Aren't I waiting for you every time..." When Ruoyu saw Brother Jue, her eyes showed joy, but she still responded coldly.
"Brother Jue, um... I just have something to ask you." When Xiao Tan saw Brother Jue this time, his expression was a little strange.
"You want to ask about the prize?" Feng Bujue answered.
A while ago, due to the quarrel between Ruoyu and Jue Ge, no one mentioned the S2 prize at all, and the things were just left at Jue Ge's house.
After they reconciled, Ruoyu found a time to distribute some prizes from Woody to Xiao Tan and the others; and today... it was the first time they got together after receiving the prizes.
"Yeah..." Xiaotan continued, "No matter what...this gift is too..."
"That's outrageous!" Before he could finish his words, Xiao Ling shouted loudly, "Captain, is your friend named 'Woody' being too lenient?"
Feng Bujue naturally knew what the prizes the young couple received were. When doing the YaGe transaction, he even specifically asked Woody about the prizes.
According to the devil's original words, "Hey hey hey... don't worry, the Yin Yang Ring is a good thing and has endless uses. I gave this to them because of my friendship with their grandparents. I wouldn't give it to most people."
"He's not my friend." Feng Bujue shrugged, "But I think... there shouldn't be any malicious intent in this prize."
"Well..." Xiaotan continued at this time, "Actually, I did have plans to buy a wedding ring recently, but at this time, I got a pair of strange rings from a stranger. I always feel...
"
"...I feel like he's a bit nosy." Xiao Ling continued what he said.
"Really..." Brother Jue thought, "I think this is good... Anyway, judging from the two of you's extremely rich family background, you will definitely not buy a ready-made ring... 80% of the time you will go there.
Custom-made two unique things that are extremely expensive. Now someone has sent you a pair of magic weapons directly, which is completely in line with the characteristics of being unique and priceless, and has saved you a lot of trouble."
"Have you recently begun to study the materials for cultivation? Return the magic weapon?" After hearing these words, An Yueqin, who didn't know the truth, took advantage of the situation and complained to Brother Jue, "By the way, your deadline for this round of submission is also approaching.
, you have an idea in your mind, if you can't hand it over by then..."
This editor has not urged Brother Jue to write a manuscript for a long time. The main reason is because of the incident between Brother Jue and Ruoyu a while ago. However, this problem no longer exists...
"Calm down...I...know." Feng Bujue did not finish his words. Because he is really busy these days. When he is free, he is not in the mood. When he is in the mood, he is not free...Unknowingly, he is close to death. It's over, to be honest... He doesn't know if he can hand it over by then, but he still has a mysterious calmness...
"Oh~ that's right!" A second later, facing An Yueqin's suspicious eyes, Brother Jue quickly changed the subject, "Didn't the company say before S2 that they would use the competition to promote me? How is this happening now? ?”
"Oh... that." An Yueqin replied calmly, "The effect is quite remarkable. In the past month, your new book sales have increased, your old books have been reprinted, and the royalties for the next quarter are very high. It’s worth looking forward to.”
"Haha... This is all relying on the bureau... Oh no... Editor your cultivation." Feng Bujue laughed, and so smoothly changed the topic from "magic weapon", "urging" and so on. opened.
In this way, everyone ate, drank, and chatted lively for nearly half an hour.
They also complained about each other's prizes...
Except for Xiao Tan and Xiao Ling's rings, what others got were actually magic weapons.
What An Yueqin got was a "limited edition laptop exclusively issued by Dream Company", which was said to the outside world... but in fact, this was a hardware device specially designed for "Record Officers".
An Yueqin doesn't know yet. She is actually a descendant of the "Recorder" clan and has the mission of writing the "Apocalypse".
Of course, this is not a particularly dangerous task. On the contrary, "recorders" can be said to be the safest group of people in the world. Because they are directly protected by "gods". From ancient times to the present, what they have to do It means to record what you see, hear, and experience on stone tablets, bamboo slips, paper...
The mission has not changed, but the media used for recording are constantly being upgraded; so today, "recording officers" also use hard drives...
Seeing this, everyone must have understood that the reason why Miss An intersects with the lives of Feng Bujue, Wang Tanzhi, Li Ruoyu, and Gu Xiaoling is destiny... In the coming years... , she will play the role of a "witness" and record many things.
Next, let’s talk about the prizes Ruoyu got...
What she got was a Rubik's Cube. The meaning was unknown, but Ruoyu could feel this extraordinary object; just in case, she sent the thing to Taiye (Gu Chen), and Jiu Ke is currently studying this thing. .
In the end, it was Feng Bujue...
One thing for another, regardless of the various deals and bets he had with Woody, he would still be able to get the prize.
What Brother Jue got... was a book.
A black, thick book.
The cover of this book is hard. From the outside, there is no text on the top, bottom, left, right or side covers. When you open it, it is all white paper.
This is a blank book with no pros and cons.
Feng Bujue had no research on this "Wordless Heavenly Book" for the time being, and he had no way of researching it... He just put it on the bookshelf at home.
Originally, he had no idea at all, but this morning, after listening to Woody talk about the "effect" of the Falsehood of Truth ability, Brother Jue seemed to be aware of the use of this book.
In the evening, he also tried using it at home, but... there was no response.
Thinking about it, his ability level is not high enough, and he probably needs to reach the "merging" level.
…………
If there is a book, it will be long; if there is no book, it will be short.
More than half an hour passed in a hurry...
Tonight, the five members of [Hellfront] formed a team for the first time since the new version was launched. There is no doubt that they are going to have a try in the team survival mode.
So, after some discussion, everyone returned to their respective login spaces. They were fully prepared and were just waiting for Brother Jue to join the queue.
[Crazy but not aware, level 50]
[Like Rain and Ruoli, Level 50]
【Sigh in vain, level 50】
[Sad Spirit Laughing Bones, Level 50]
[Flower room on the stone, level 50]
[Please select the game mode the team wants to join.]
[You have chosen team survival mode (nightmare), please confirm. 】
Although this was the first script scheduled tonight, Brother Jue unceremoniously chose the nightmare difficulty. After all, the strength of the team is there, so there is no need to be timid.
[Your team is joining the team survival mode (normal), and the random number of team members has been generated: six people.]
[Your team has entered the queue and is searching for other ready individuals or teams.]
[Matching completed, neural connections are being coordinated, script generation is in progress...]
[Loading starts, please wait.]
At this moment, everyone's eyes became dark, the game menu could not be opened, and the body also felt weightless.
These all indicate that the transmission has begun.
"Welcome to...the horror paradise." The hoarse voice, the sinister tone, and the perfect opening remarks gave people a creepy feeling.
[Loading completed, you are currently in team survival mode (normal). 】
[This mode provides an introduction to the script, and there is a chance that side lines/hidden tasks and special world views will appear.]
[Scenario clearance reward: 80% of the basic experience bonus for clearance can be obtained when settling the reward]
[The script introduction will be played soon, and the game will start immediately after the playback is completed. 】
After the new version is opened, the level limit has been increased. Therefore, when generating the clearance rewards of the script, the probability of experience rewards has also increased significantly.
【It was a summer night.】
The narration started, and the opening CG also started playing.
As soon as the picture appeared, a rather small classroom appeared in front of everyone.
Under the illumination of an old fluorescent tube... mottled walls, old desks and chairs, dust-covered window glass, huge corroded and rusty lockers and other scenes flashed through the lens one by one.
It seems that this space, filled with a depressing and weird atmosphere everywhere, is for this journey.
[I took the squad leader’s letter and returned to my hometown, back to the primary school classroom in my childhood memories. 】
The narration continues...
[I arrived at the classroom half an hour earlier than the scheduled time, and soon after, my classmates also showed up one after another. 】
【Although we haven’t seen each other for many years, we haven’t changed much yet.】
At this point, the narration paused for a few seconds; at the same time, the camera continued to rotate in the classroom, seeming to help players observe the surrounding environment in advance.
[The appointed time has passed, but the monitor has not shown up yet.]
[The sky is getting dark, and today’s sunset seems to be earlier than usual. It’s just before six o’clock, and it’s already so dark outside the window that you can’t even see your fingers. 】
[Just when everyone was discussing whether to go back, suddenly, someone shouted loudly!] (To be continued.)
