It is already late May, and the weather is gradually getting hotter. Wudu is known as the stove. Summer has entered early, and the temperature has reached 30 degrees. Walking outdoors, you will be sweating after a while.
Du Shiyu couldn't even remember how long it had been since she took a bus, and it felt very fresh to relive it.
While I was looking at the street scene outside the window, when the bus stopped at a stop, a salesman selling VR glasses came up and sold people one by one the latest products launched by a certain company.
"Mom, I want it, I want it!"
"Sister, buy a pair for your child. You put it on and take a look. Everything is digital. When you look at the armrest, it automatically recognizes and intelligently analyzes the ingredients and uses... Now is the era of the Internet of Everything. Don't let your children lose.
It’s on the starting line, why don’t you buy a pair?”
"How much is it?"
“It’s not expensive. The original price is 1899. Our company does activities and it’s only 899.”
"So expensive?"
"It's not expensive anymore. There are no similar products from other manufacturers for less than one thousand yuan. With it, you don't need a mobile phone. From now on, this thing will be just like a mobile phone, a must-have item for everyone."
"Then...just buy one."
"Long live mom!"
The salesman is very eloquent. After wearing VR glasses, everything around him becomes readable. Height and weight can be automatically recognized when looking at people. It also has a video recording function and can be used as a mobile phone. It is a powerful function.
, people who experience it for the first time can easily be fooled.
"Young man, let me try too"
"I'll give it a try too"
"Today's technology is developing so fast..."
"Yes, yes, I am old and can't keep up with the times."
"People who are only 60 are called old. I read the news not long ago and it said that retirement is delayed. 60-year-olds can only be considered middle-aged."
"Bullshit, how does that count as old, 80?"
"It depends on the situation. As long as you are not old and can't walk, it doesn't count."
Xia Miaomiao liked to join in the fun. Seeing the enthusiasm of the passengers in the carriage, she curiously called the salesman to try a pair.
After putting on the glasses, it's like looking through a layer of glass. There are many readable options on this layer of glass, such as seats and armrests. If you point your finger on it, the material and purpose will appear.
Of course, it is not as good as the game console, and there is no sense of immersion at all. If the field of view shakes too fast, it will be blurry. When looking at things that are slightly farther away, delays and freezes will occur...
"I want one too!"
"Okay...the beauty's equipment, tsk tsk, you can tell at a glance that it is custom-made, isn't it cheap?"
"It's okay!"
Xia Miaomiao bought a pair of glasses for 899 and took out the manual to read.
"Miaomiao, what are you doing? We don't need this thing."
"I bought it for fun. It's only 9 coppers, so it's not expensive."
Bringing players' habits into reality, after converting them into copper coins, they feel that everything is so cheap. Du Shiyu also feels this way, so he won't say anything more.
The salesmen were busy and there were many people on the bus wearing VR glasses looking around.
Xia Miaomiao felt dizzy after carrying it for a while. At this time, the bus driver said, you have met a liar. This thing is a "customized version of the bus" and it will be useless after getting off the bus.
Passengers who bought glasses quickly asked what they meant. The bus driver only then revealed the details. It turned out that what he had just bought was a 'knock-off machine', which is a Sanwu product that is spliced together with various defective parts. It is specially designed for various types of glasses.
The 'sales scene' is customized, and it is useless without the 'sales scene'. It is just a fake.
Passengers who were deceived blamed the driver for not warning him earlier. Some shouted to call the police, some refused to allow the bus to continue driving, and some scolded their children...
"Let's go, let's get off the car."
"Damn it, damn liar!"
Xia Miaomiao gave up her glasses and threw them on her seat. She and Du Shiyu got out of the noisy carriage and found themselves near the entrance of a busy pedestrian street.
Xia Miaomiao looked left and right, and suddenly saw an 'orc barbarian' and an 'elf bard' hugging each other. She was happy and hurriedly pointed it out to her best friend.
"Aren't we the same? I feel so ashamed!"
The two of them were also wearing COS equipment from the game. One was a priest and the other was a mage. They were both human beings. It was not an exaggeration to say that this couple was completely immersed in their own world. The one who was pretending to be an orc showed two fangs.
There was makeup on the outside of the mouth and face, which was green and red, just like a ghost.
The woman was pretending to be an elf, but unfortunately she didn't look good enough, so she used heavy makeup to make it up. The powder on her face looked as if it had been shaved off, and her facial features looked like they were painted on. At first glance, they looked particularly eye-catching.
Wudu is hosting the Yuanshi Culture Festival. The bustling pedestrian street already has a festive atmosphere. People in all kinds of strange costumes are everywhere. Not far away, I saw a group of officially organized COS teams performing parades along the street. Behind them were
Human hair brochure wearing a uniform vest.
The businesses along the street have also made various arrangements to suit the occasion. Most of them have a colorful sculpture of a game character standing at the door. Some are exquisite, some are rough, and the music played on a loop is also the most popular "Ah, Canaan, Canaan"
and "I am a Glorious Orc", the main business of many stores is also game peripherals, COS stores are the most common, buy some restoration props of different quality, set up a theme cafe, and sell some Canaan maps, monsters, minerals
Picture books, etc.
These are the easiest businesses for ordinary people to start. Even street snack bars make in-game food to attract customers.
The two of them held hands and browsed the connected jewelry stalls. There were the most props in the game, especially necklaces, rings, amulets, etc. Some were restored to equal proportions, some were miniature, and the workmanship was more exquisite and sparkling than those in the game.
It has undergone a certain degree of beautification and improvement.
In fact, even the COS worn by the two people has been beautified and improved. The principle is the same as the popular Hanfu movement. If the style of Hanfu in various historical periods is truly restored, it may not be in line with modern people's aesthetics.
Shopping, etc., used to be one of Xia Miaomiao's favorite 'exercises'. She could go shopping for a whole day without feeling tired, but this time she felt tired after not long shopping, so she rushed to the agreed-upon cafe with her best friend.
Brother Chun and Qiao Shan have been waiting for a long time.
No way, being late is the prerogative of beauties.
Brother Chun was stopping Qiao Shan, who was waiting impatiently, not to let him go. When he saw two beauties in COS outfits coming in, his eyes lit up and he shouted loudly: "Saplings, Xuewu, this way, this way."
Xia Miaomiao smiled and waved here, holding her best friend's arm very quietly and walking over with a reserved smile.
"How is it, not bad!?"
Brother Chun kissed Qiao Shan and whispered.
"Uh... not bad."
"At least 85 points or above...be smarter later and don't bring the bad temper in the game here..."
Just as he was muttering, two beauties arrived. Brother Chun very attentively introduced them to the booth, called the waiter, and ordered coffee according to the instructions of the two beauties.
"Saplings, how are you? Haha, I will definitely move back if I tell you to move back. From now on, we will all be comrades in the trenches."
"Did you buy Beauty Lakeside?"
"Hmm, I bought it because the environment there is good, but it's a little expensive, but... haha, it doesn't matter!" Brother Chun looked like he didn't need money but wanted to be humble, for fear that others wouldn't notice that he was shaking now.
.
Xia Miaomiao had seen too many people showing off like this. She let out a sigh and looked at the other person sitting aside, "This is..."
"Let me introduce you to my buddy, Qiao Shan, whose game ID is Xiaoqiao Liushui. How about it? Have you heard of it?"
Qiao Shan smiled and said: "Hello, two beauties, I am Qiao Shan."
"Small bridge and flowing water," Xia Miaomiao pretended to remember, pushing her best friend, "I think I heard about it there?"
Du Shiyu rolled her eyes in her heart, knowing that her best friend was pretending again, and said, "It's the one who robbed the main thread NPC."
"Oh, I remembered, I am an old player."
"I made these two beauties laugh, haha..." Qiao Shan looked unfazed by honor and disgrace, as if he was used to seeing the world.
Brother Chun still looked like a dog, and said enthusiastically, "We all know each other. From now on, we will all be in the same family, and we will all be brothers and sisters."
"Why, you also want to join Chunshui's family?" Xia Miaomiao asked knowingly.
Brother Chun said: "Yes, Chun Shui, this person is kind and fair in dealing with things. Anyway, adding anything is a plus, so let's go in and mix it for a while to see if it doesn't work."
"Oh... By the way, what happened to the family residence?" Du Shiyu asked.
Xia Miaomiao secretly said something was wrong, and Brother Chun really said in confusion: "Zhanzhi, didn't you hear Chun Shui say, is the system going to start enfeoffing again?"
Du Shiyu understood that he had been deceived by his best friend, so he pinched Xia Miaomiao secretly and stopped asking any more questions.
"Speaking of residency, it's really a trap now. It's not something ordinary people can play. I know a few buddies who have invested all their money in it. So far, I haven't heard any response, and I still owe a lot of debt.
Good first-test players are now poorer than newcomers. They pray to God every day and hope that some resource point will appear on the newly grown map. Otherwise, hehe, they are afraid they will hang themselves."
"Do you still know this kind of person?" Qiao Shan interjected, "Are they interested in changing hands?"
Brother Chun said: "Why, the boss you know is interested in taking over?"
"You don't need to worry about it. If you contact him and build a bridge, you can help your friend out of the sea of misery."
"Now?"
"It's a matter of one sentence"
"That's okay, you two beauties can do what you want!"
Xia Miaomiao shrugged her shoulders, Du Shiyu drank coffee, and Xia Miaomiao was happy when she heard who Brother Chun called.
This world is really small, and the unlucky ones turned out to be my eldest cousin’s group.
You deserve to be punished!
She will remember the expansion pack for the rest of her life.
After making a phone call, Brother Chun didn't say anything about the result, but asked enthusiastically: "Where shall we go later? Why don't you go to my place and have a look?"
Xia Miaomiao: "Border of Beauty Lake?"
"Well, you are also old players, right? Don't you want to buy one? The environment in that place is very good..."
Xia Miaomiao wanted to buy it, but unfortunately, she was short of money.
After saying this, she remembered the business, looked at Qiao Shan and said: "I heard that you know a lot of people, I have some good things that I want to sell, please help me."
"What good stuff?" Qiao Shan said lazily and in a very casual tone.
"equipment."
"Blue equipment? That depends on the attributes."
"Green Dress"
"Forget it about green clothes, my friends are good enough."
"It's still a set, sold together as a set."
"What... what are you trying to use?"
"Suit!"
"You have?"
"Um"
"How many pieces?"
"Complete set!"
"You're right!" Qiao Shan sneered and leaned into the sofa.
Xia Miaomiao didn't say much, she just took out a few printed pictures from her bag and put them in front of her.
Qiao Shan picked it up and looked at it, and Brother Chun also curiously came over to take a look.
"It's really a suit!" Brother Chun shouted.
Qiao Shan put down the picture and looked more serious, "The magic wolf suit doesn't look like a bomb, but it looks like it was custom-made."
It was Xia Miaomiao's turn to be proud, "You don't have to worry about this."
"Okay, let me ask you what the price is?"
“Of course the higher the better”
Brother Chun joked, "Miaomiao, you don't want to trade this magic wolf green outfit for a villa by Beauty Lake, do you?"
"Why, no?"
"It really doesn't work!" Qiao Shan became very serious as soon as he entered the business mode, and his laziness disappeared, "If I didn't have to say it before, it's impossible now. Let me talk about your green outfit first. The biggest shortcoming is that it is too durable.
Low, now that the system has been adjusted, the durability will drop too much after one repair, so this equipment can only be used for a month or two. Again, it is only for thieves..."
"What's wrong with thieves? Those who play thieves are all experts."
"The good players are all veteran players. The most popular among new players is the bard. The equipment for thieves is cheap, and..."
"What is it?"
“The attributes of the suit are not good at all!”
"What's up? The special effects of my equipment are not bad."
"It's not bad, but they are all low-level special effects. They are just cheap. My friends are all pursuing the ultimate and perfection. What is ultimate perfection? Those who can use +3 intelligence will never use +2, and those who can use dual-character stunts
Never use a single one..."
"Okay, I know you keep lowering the price, but I don't expect you to buy it!"
Seeing that he was about to stop talking, Brother Chun quickly interrupted, "Okay, okay, I'm here to play today. If I don't talk about the things in the game, Qiao Shan, you will die if you don't say a few words. I just asked you to pass on a message...
Miaomiao, please ignore him, where shall we go later?"
"No more, go home!"
"No, no, no, it's hard to come out for fun. I don't know when the system will shut down next time... How about we go on a cruise on the Han River and rent a yacht. I know someone who can go to the center of the river.
How about a picnic and barbecue on Shiye Island? By the way, there is also a cultural festival. Do you know about the cultural festival? One of the venues is on the Han River. It is very lively. There is a large-scale light show every night on the island.
It’s so beautifully done!”
Xia Miaomiao was angrily unmoved. Du Shiyu remembered what Director Wang of the school said and wanted to see the preparations for the so-called cultural festival on the spot, so he pushed his best friend and told her to give it up.
"Okay then...yacht?"
"It's all on me. I have a fan who has a license at home. Just wait and I'll contact him."
Half an hour later, the three of them left the cafe, took Brother Chun's newly purchased luxury convertible, and headed towards the parking spot of his friend's luxury yacht.
The hottest time of the day had passed, and a cool breeze blew in the afternoon, blowing up the hem of Xia Miaomiao's skirt while standing on the convertible, and ruffling the calm surface of the river.
