"To put it simply, it is a virtual reality task competition. This is a competition organized by Cyber Studio, a company specializing in this type of technology. It has been held in many cities. Players participating in the competition are required to sign There is a confidentiality agreement, so the specific game rules have never been leaked, but it is said that the game itself is very interesting and has inspired many people in the related industry, so... I have actually signed up for us."
"When will the competition take place?" Qin Yin asked.
Jasmine swiped on her phone and moved to the next page.
"Now, here is the starting time," she straightened the screen. "At noon the day after tomorrow, the players will gather at the Wenjing Technology Center."
This timing is like a bucket of cold water.
"What should I do? Will the Taoist Master wake up at that time?" Qin Yin was confused.
"That's right," Jasmine lowered her shoulders in frustration, "If we just leave the Taoist priest behind, I always feel..."
"That doesn't matter," Qin Yin waved his hand disdainfully, "The problem is that without a Taoist priest, who will protect us in the game?"
So, is the Taoist just a bodyguard?
It seems that love does disappear.
"Well...even if the Taoist Master participates, we may not meet him in the game," Jasmine choked before saying, "The Ten-Day Banquet is an individual competition, and there are a very, very large number of registered players. Opponents and teammates are randomly matched. Yes, we may not even meet our own people at all.”
"That means... you can't bully others just because you have more people?" Qin Yin said in shock.
Jasmine pretended to look regretful, "I guess so."
Baomu patted the cynical Qin Yin and comforted him, "Sister Xiaoyin, you don't have to be disappointed. Among us, you are the only one who bullies others. With or without us, it won't affect your bullying of others." Human.”
Although Bao Mu was beaten for these words, they had to admit that this was simply the truth.
"So what are we going to do?" The fool pulled away Qin Yin's hand from Bao Mu and asked Xiang Jasmine, "How long will this game last?"
"About a few days. It depends on the specific abilities of different players. It's basically five to ten days," Jasmine immediately replied. "It won't exceed ten days at most. After all, after more than ten days... I can live by it. It’s just the right time.”
Xiaolan looked at the way Jasmine blurted out and knew that she must have done extensive research. From this point of view, Jasmine must be looking forward to this game.
But it is indeed a bit uncomfortable to leave the Taoist priest and go out to play alone.
"Don't the games start the day after tomorrow? Otherwise, we will go back to the Mystery Bureau tomorrow to confirm the situation of the Taoist priest," Luo Jiutian finally said, "Don't worry, I will take you in, and I guarantee that you will not be kicked out like today." ”
That's nice to say, but wasn't it mainly because of you that we were kicked out?
"Then we can go through the main entrance, right? We don't have to climb over the courtyard wall, right?" Qiao Nian confirmed again and again.
"Don't worry, climbing over the courtyard wall is the last resort. If it really doesn't work, let's do that again. Let's go through the front door first, and then try the side door. There are so many doors in my house..."
***
Unexpectedly, when I arrived at the Mystery Bureau the next day, Lao Luo was already waiting at the door with a smile on his face.
"I guess you will come back to visit the little friends," Lao Luo said, leading them into the small ebony attic at the back right of the inner room. "I have settled the little friends in Suwu. This is the rest of the Eight Liangshui disciples. In the pavilion where the spirit is resting, the little friend is placed in the spirit-nurturing room, and is always cared for by the spirit-nurturing person. I believe that when you all return triumphantly, the little friend will be healthy again."
"Returning triumphantly...Dad, do you know we are going to participate in that competition?" Luo Jiutian blinked his big black and white eyes and asked his father as he climbed up the ebony steps leading to the soul raising room on the top floor.
The others all looked at Jasmine, who quickly shrugged and said, "I didn't say anything."
"I guessed it myself," Lao Luo turned into the wooden platform and pointed towards the room with the sign "五" at the end of the corridor, "Hahaha, don't really think that I am an old-fashioned, young man. I also know a little bit about this stuff."
"Director Luo, do you want to go with us?" Qin Yin opened his mouth and asked.
This bodyguard looks more reliable.
But Lao Luo just squinted his eyes and shook his head, "Lao Luo still needs to take care of my little friend, have you forgotten?"
That's right, not only did he throw away the Taoist priest, but he also took away the person who protected him. Not only was this not the behavior of a friend, it was even to the extent that even his enemies would call him ruthless.
The wooden door was tightly closed, and the door was completely smooth, with no door handle or other items in sight.
Lao Luo knocked three times first, and then drew something with his right finger at a height of about one and a half meters. With a creak, the wooden door opened from the inside.
The others looked amazed, but Luo Jiutian looked like "I've never seen this before" and followed his father's footsteps into the soul-nurturing room.
Facing the face is a burst of warm water mist. The mist in the soul-nurturing room is filled with fragrant steam, making people suddenly feel a comfortable warmth that reaches straight to the sky. Through the vast mist, a person can be vaguely seen lying flat on the white jade stone platform in the room. , five jade-carved dragon heads were erected around the stone platform. The dragon heads continued to spray mist from their mouths, so that the man was surrounded by the mist. Looking from a distance, he felt peaceful and quiet.
"Oh my god, is our Taoist priest suffering from some terminal illness? Why is he treated like this?" Qin Yin looked at him eagerly, "He looks so bearded."
"Well, this is indeed the top soul-nurturing treatment of Baliangshui," Luo Jiutian sat down on the edge of the stone platform with a carefree attitude, "I have only enjoyed it seventy or eighty times, but it is indeed very refreshing hahahaha …”
"That's because every time you are sent for training by me, you will be beaten half to death." After Lao Luo unceremoniously revealed his son's Versailles-style speech, he did not forget to answer Qin Yin with a smile, "But everyone Don’t worry, there is nothing wrong with your little one’s body. I am just taking this opportunity to cultivate your little one’s spiritual energy. People with a healthy constitution will only make their body stronger if they practice the art of nourishing their spiritual energy.”
The Taoist priest should be lying on his back under a bed of white silk with his upper body naked, and his complexion is indeed much better than yesterday.
It was a bit strange for such a large group of people to stare at the undressed Taoist priest. Realizing the embarrassment, Xiaolan sneaked up to Lao Luo, tugged on his sleeves and said, "Uncle Luo, are you very embarrassed?" Do you like Taoist Priest?"
Lao Luo was stunned for a moment, then squatted down without shame, touched Xiaolan's head and said, "My little friend is generous and prudent, and always has an innocent heart. He is Lao Luo's best friend for many years, and is also an opportunity that Luo cherishes. Of course I like it.”
Xiaolan stared at the slightly gleaming light in Lao Luo's eyes and nodded.
"Then I have to trouble you to cure the Taoist priest. If he wakes up, tell him that we are going to make money to support the family." Xiaolan grabbed Lao Luo's hand, "Thank you, Uncle Luo, we are going out to play. We’ll come back when that’s enough.”
Others were a little surprised by Xiaolan's attitude. They didn't come over until they walked out of the gate of the Mystery Bureau and asked, "Why is Xiaolan so straightforward? Aren't you afraid that Director Luo will secretly sell the Taoist priest?... I just made a joke in Jiutian, Of course I know Director Luo won’t betray anyone, don’t be angry..."
Xiaolan raised her eyes and looked at the entangled fool and Luo Jiutian. She opened her mouth, but no words came out. She just smiled and got into the taxi and rushed to the headquarters, which was Jasmine's home.
