Chapter 48: Movies on New Year's Day

The Lan family of five came to the central square.

The trees around the square were hung with big red lanterns, and the shops on both sides were posted with festive decorations.

"I didn't expect the atmosphere of the Spring Festival to be so strong." Lan Guoqiang has always believed that the loss of civilization has led to the interruption of historical and cultural continuity, and traditional festivals and customs will gradually be forgotten.

But the interstellar people still celebrate the Spring Festival so lively, perhaps this is the result of the research institute's continuous efforts.

The loss of civilization is a terrible thing.

Lan Ximeng walked around the small stalls in the square and saw many new species that are not seen in modern times.

In front of a stall full of little monsters, Lan Ximeng pointed at the same ugly and cute monster and asked, "What is this?"

The vendor said, "Nian! I carved it based on the latest data from the research institute. Look at this, it's all handmade."

"You can take 80 if you want it. As the old saying goes, fierce beasts guard the house. With firecrackers, you can control the Nian beast. Isn't it said that the Nian beast is afraid of loud noises and the color red? Look at the firecrackers, they are still red."

The vendor kept selling his wares with all his might, and Lan Ximeng became dazed as she listened.

Is there such a saying?

Lan Guoqiang was also stunned. This was not among the ferocious beasts guarding the house. It seemed that he had to find time to sort it out.

The Nian beast represents the misfortunes and disasters of the old year, so it would be inappropriate to bring it home.

"Let's go." Chen Chuntao pulled away Lan Ximeng, who obviously wanted to buy something. She wouldn't talk about other ugly and cute things, but this one was really not acceptable.

It is better to believe it exists than to believe it does not.

"Take another look, little girl!"

Lan Ximeng just felt it was a pity, it was so cute, so ugly.

When they arrived at the cinema, their family chose the largest screening hall, which had 100 rows, with 100 seats in each row, for a total of 10,000 seats.

"There are so many people!" Lan Ximeng saw that there were still 10 minutes left before the movie started and everyone had arrived. The seats were almost full.

"The interstellar population is large."

"What's the use of these glasses? Aren't we watching a holographic projection?" Lan Ximeng said, wearing the glasses distributed by the cinema.

It’s true, these glasses are quite high definition. She can even see the pimples in the first row even though she is sitting in the 10th row.

"It seems to be said that it allows us to see more clearly."

The movie starts.

In the entire screening room, except for the audience and movie chairs, everything else disappeared.

Lan Ximeng looked up and saw that the originally dark ceiling had turned into a clear blue sky with a few white clouds floating by from time to time.

She looked left and right and found that she could see the buildings on both sides, and could even see the whole view when watching a movie.

She even smelled blood.

At this time, accompanied by music, a group of soldiers in armor were walking towards Lan Ximeng and the others.

The audience in the front row stretched out their hands, wanting to touch the soldiers' clothes.

The result is predictable, none of them could touch anything.

Lan Ximeng watched the soldiers passing by her one by one, and it felt like she was really there. The difference is that only the upper body can move, and the entity cannot be touched.

Lan Ximeng watched the whole thing in a daze, but it was, to be honest, very exciting.

The script was written by my father, so the plot is perfect.

The actor who plays Zheng Ge is very majestic just by standing in front of me, and it feels like he is actually Zheng Ge.

The visual effects are well done, especially in the presentation of the battle scenes, which makes her feel as if she is in the scene.

She could even feel the wind created by the soldiers swinging their weapons, and the wetness of the blood spilled by the injured soldiers.

But next time there is a movie, she will not choose to watch it with full concentration.

feel dizzy.

And because she saw it so clearly, she saw the actor's nose hair, which was a bit disappointing.

"Yue." Lan Guoqiang quickly ran out of the screening room and headed for the toilet.

Lan Ximeng groaned and pulled Lan Yuncheng's arm, asking, "Dad, what's wrong?"

"Dad seemed to be holographically dizzy and was retching the whole time." Lan Guoqiang was sitting next to Lan Yuncheng. He kept an eye on him during the movie, afraid that Lan Guoqiang would vomit.

"You won't be dizzy from the hologram too, will you?" That shouldn't be the case. We can train in the training room.

Lan Ximeng shook her head. "No, there were too many people in the battle scene just now, and they were all around me. I felt a little dizzy."

Chen Chuntao handed a bottle of water to Lan Guoqiang who had just come out and asked, "How do you feel?"

"It's okay, it will be fine after vomiting." Lan Guoqiang drank tons of water and said, "Fortunately, there is no magic change. The movie is really well made, but I can't enjoy it. I still like the old one."

"From now on, just watch it on TV at home. This is too painful." Chen Chuntao carried Lan Guoqiang on her back.

Liu Liu was recycling the empty bottles on the side.

Lan Ximeng, who had instantly regained her energy after a short rest, suggested, "Let's go shopping. I want to buy some dolls!"

"Don't buy those messy things!" Chen Chuntao didn't quite understand her daughter's aesthetic taste and her special liking for ugly things.

After walking around, Lan Ximeng and her friends passed by the stall that sold Nian beast ornaments.

"Take a look, take a look, here are the latest Nian beast firecrackers. Buy them home and light them to drive away misfortune and disaster."

Lan Ximeng walked up and asked, "Boss, wasn't it a decoration before? Why has it turned into a firecracker now?" And it was no different from the one in the morning, except for the addition of a firecracker.

"Hey, let's not talk about it anymore. The research institute just issued a document saying that the Nian beast represents misfortune and disaster. Aren't all my stuff useless? Fortunately, my son is smart and turned them into firecrackers, and my business is even better." The boss came forward to greet the customers happily.

Lan Guoqiang stood aside, looking up at the sky.

"188 for two, buy one or not."

"Then give me four!"

In the evening, Lan Ximeng suddenly remembered that she still had a competition.

When she clicked it, Lan Ximeng was shocked.

"Ah, how many are these? One, ten, one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand, twenty thousand downloads!"

“How can there be so many!”

Lan Ximeng clicked on 999+ game reviews.

Player 1: I exited the virtual world and downloaded the game so I could get discounts on clothes, but now I can’t go back.

Player 2: There are discounts on clothes, come and take a look.

Player 3: The boss’s kid, I support you.

Player 4: In order to support the boss's child, I played for too long and was scolded by his grandmother.

Player 5: It's fun, the little animals are so cute, but I don't have enough stamina, and the mall has limits on purchases, so I'm forced to spend money!

Player 6: Can you please make some peripheral products? I like the Toad King!

Player 7: I saw the top comments supporting the boss kid, so I downloaded it out of curiosity. As a result, all my pocket money was gone.

Player 8: Kids of fishing friends, this game is suitable for retired old men like us.

......

Lan Ximeng didn't expect that her parents and brother had such a strong appeal, and the number of downloads is still increasing.

Currently, the ranking of "Save the Kingdom" has reached tenth place. As long as you keep persisting, you may be able to get the consolation prize.

Lan Ximeng smiled and sent the screenshot to the group, "Thank you, Mom, Dad and Brother, I love you."

Chen Chunlei: Go to bed quickly, we have to go to pay New Year’s greetings tomorrow.

Lan Ximeng: Oh.

Whose house are we going to visit tomorrow to pay New Year's greetings? My parents have only been here for half a year, but they already have so many friends.

Ah, no, I’m too excited and can’t sleep.

Play Candy Crush for a while and see if there is anything that can be improved.

Damn, I forgot to prevent addiction, and now it’s 10 o’clock and I can’t play.

Lan Ximeng lay on the bed and pounded it.
