Chapter 109

Ignoring Yaxu's coquettish behavior with electronic sounds, Cen Xun rejected its plea.

Why would he interfere in the matter between Wusa and Qin Xiu?

He is the mayor, not a neighborhood committee administrator.

Cen Xun flicked his fingers slightly, exited the dress-up game page, and said coldly, "If you make any more noise, I'll blow up your speakers."

Yaxu shut up instantly.

Obviously, the substitute plan failed miserably.

Cen Xun changed the platform and began to search for entries related to Fengdu Ghost City. The previous large-scale publicity had a significant effect, and now the human Internet was flooded with content related to Fengdu Ghost City.

Ten million players have reached the capacity limit of Fengdu Ghost City. If these ten million players attract more new players by sharing QR codes, Fengdu Ghost City will be overloaded.

How to deal with the next new players is also a problem.

Cen Xun placed his finger on his forehead and tapped it, a thoughtful look on his face: "What a sweet trouble."

He was muttering to himself when several players suddenly rushed into this remote corner. Seeing a person sitting in the corner, these frightened players subconsciously screamed in fear.

Cen Xun: “”

The stall has been set up here, why are there still players coming here?

He counted out a few wooden signs and placed them on the table, his voice calm, "Go straight to Liren Pond, and come out to get my stamp."

When the players saw his appearance clearly, the screams stopped abruptly.

One player clearly knew Cen Xun. After coming to his senses, he asked in disbelief, "Teacher Cen?"

Cen Xun said expressionlessly, "There is no Teacher Cen here."

The players looked at him doubtfully, but seeing Cen Xun's expression that said "keep away from strangers", they didn't dare to disturb him. They took their wooden signs from him stealthily, and didn't forget to look at Cen Xun a few more times before leaving.

When they walked a little further away, Cen Xun heard low voices of discussion coming from behind him.

"Oh my god! Teacher Cen doesn't look photogenic in real life. He's much more beautiful than in the variety shows. Ahhhh, I didn't even say a few words to him just now!"

"Damn it, principal! Why did you put our teacher Cen in such a remote corner? Our teacher Cen is so pitiful sitting here alone."

"I would die without regrets if I could see Teacher Cen in ancient costume with my own eyes!"

Cen Xun: “”

Pity him? It’s better to pity yourself.

The mortality rate in Lirentan is much higher than that in other projects.

Five players entered the pond, but only two emerged. Pale-faced, they sought Cen Xun's stamp. As they picked up their documents, they couldn't help but ask him, "Teacher, are the people we saw in the pond still alive in this ghost town?"

Cen Xun: "Since it's already out, why bother asking again?"

Liren Pond allows players to see the people they miss the most. Those people will tempt players to stay. Once players are deceived, they will be drowned in Liren Pond. Only by escaping from the illusion in time can they come out alive.

Since these two players came out alive, it means that they do not believe that the people in the illusion are still alive.

After hearing what Cen Xun said, the two girls' eyes immediately filled with tears. One of the girls wiped her face hastily and smiled, "My father told me before he died that I should continue to move forward in his place. So when I heard that father asking me to stay, I felt something was wrong."

“So I left the pond and never looked back.”

The girl's eyes became determined: "I will live, including my father's share."

Cen Xun watched the two girls leave.

It's very strange. Obviously, the hallucinogenic effect of [Fantasy World] is top-notch, but when used on humans, there are always a few people who can resist the illusion and slip through the net.

The human heart is indeed an unpredictable thing.

After the two girls left, many players accidentally entered Liren Lake for various reasons and chattered loudly. After being surprised by offline fans calling out "Teacher Cen" for the fifth time, Cen Xun became a little impatient and prepared to leave after the fifth group of players came out.

Just then, another player walked in. Cen Xun didn't even look at him. He threw a wooden sign on the table and said perfunctorily, "Go straight to Liren Pond and come out to get my stamp."

The man came to his desk, but instead of picking up the wooden sign, he fiddled with it casually with his fingers and said with a smile, "The employee's attitude is bad. Can I complain to the mayor?"

When Cen Xun heard the voice, he folded his arms and looked up, and saw Feng Jihan dressed in white, standing in front of him leisurely, with his long black and white hair neatly tied up, looking down at him condescendingly.

Cen Xun kicked the table, causing the wooden sign on it to sway. His attitude became even more hostile: "Go ahead. If you want to deliver food so badly, no one can stop you."

Feng Jihan pretended to be surprised: "How do you know I'm here to deliver food?"

After that, he pulled out a bag from behind and handed it forward with both hands: "Teacher Cen, do you like these dishes?"

Cen Xun took it and took a look: "I'm barely satisfied."

The bag contained a box of four-inch cakes and several desserts. Cen Xun first took out the scribbled panda-shaped cake, but didn't eat it. He admired it for a while and asked, "Did you make this?"

Feng Jihan: "How is it, does it look like it?"

Cen Xun commented with one word: "Ugly."

Feng Jihan: "Thank you, you are really honest."

Cen Xun took a picture of the ugly panda cake with his phone, then took out a spoon, scooped a spoonful and put it into his mouth. He finally found the time to glance at Feng Jihan: "Is the bureau busy?"

Feng Jihan said seriously, "Last night, the bureau's operation failed miserably. They are currently discussing other strategies, so I applied for a field mission. I'm now planning to ambush Fengdu Ghost City to gather intelligence."

"Well, not bad." Cen Xun patted the place beside him and said, "The most dangerous place is the safest place. You can ambush here."

Feng Jihan felt that what Cen Xun said made sense, so he ambushed Cen Xun openly.

Feng Jihan took in the desolate state of the place and said, understandingly, "They chose such a remote location for the stall. Our teacher Cen is slacking off again."

Cen Xun cruelly dug out the panda's head and put it in his mouth to savor it carefully: "If you want to strike, you can strike. This is the advantage of starting your own business and being your own boss."

At this moment, a player walked out in a daze. When he came to the stall to ask Cen Xun to stamp his identity, he saw Feng Jihan sitting next to Cen Xun and was stunned.

Feng Jihan didn't expect that there was actually a player here with Cen Xun. He didn't know whether to sit or stand. Cen Xun remained calm. It was inconvenient for him to eat the cake, so he threw the seal to Feng Jihan and asked him to stamp the player.

Feng Jihan held the seal in his hand but didn't know where to stamp it. He had no choice but to move the document to Cen Xun and asked, "Where should I stamp it?"

Cen Xun pointed to a place: "Here."

The player watched the two people approaching each other naturally, and instantly came out of his previous state and opened his eyes wide.

No, where did this handsome black and white haired guy suddenly appear from? He didn't seem to be there when I just entered!

You guys talked about it in front of me?

Feng Jihan stamped the document and handed it back to the stunned player.

The player seemed to finally come to his senses and pointed at Feng Jihan and said, "You, you, you are not..."

Feng Jihan interrupted him with a smile: "Go out of Wangxiangtai and turn left."

The player went out in a daze, without realizing why he had to listen to Feng Jihan.

Feng Jihan exhaled and leaned back in his chair: "Question Teacher Cen, understand Teacher Cen."

A good horror game attraction was turned into an offline fan meeting point. No wonder Cen Xun couldn't stand it.

Feng Jihan thought that was the end of it, but he didn't expect that after the player left, the least popular Liren Pond suddenly became a popular place, and many people came one after another, all for the two of them.

Feng Jihan couldn't even distribute the wooden signs in time, and Cen Xun was still talking to him, "It's your face that attracted them here."

Feng Jihan, who was wronged for no reason, gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, why don't you look at your own face in the mirror?"

In the end, Feng Jihan was left with no choice but to turn into a bird and hide in Cen Xun's arms, pretending to be dead.

Cen Xun ate dessert while petting his bird, and finally felt relaxed.

The phone beside him vibrated a few times. Cen Xun opened it and found that Wusa had tagged Wu Jin in the group, asking whether the letter received by Chengmen was written by Wu Jin.

Wu Jin replied with a question mark, then sent a puzzled message: "I didn't write a letter."

Wusa took a photo of the letter and posted it: "But the handwriting really looks like yours."

Cen Xun glanced at the photo. There was illegible scribbled writing on a blood-red paper. The shape was exactly like the crawling of a worm, like some kind of encrypted text that needed to be decoded.

Wu Jin raged in the group chat: "Damn it! Wu Mishu, you actually insulted me with such ugly handwriting! My handwriting is much better than this!"

After saying that, he immediately took a photo of his practiced handwriting and posted it: "My handwriting is clearly like this!"

To be honest, Wu Jin's handwriting is not that good, but it is indeed much better looking than Chongzipa's.

Wusa was also puzzled. "Strange, who delivered this letter to the city gate? This doesn't seem to be part of our plan, right?"

The black and white bird flew to Cen Xun's wrist and peeked openly at the screen. Cen Xun pushed its head away a little and typed: "I'm in a life-and-death struggle with the Zhou guy. Come and read this letter."

Tong Ming quickly bubbled up: "Supreme Emperor, who does not raise evil birds, this is a letter of war. Where is the original letter? Only by getting the original letter can I see more."

Wusa replied: "It's in my hands. I'm in Yama Palace."

Cen Xun asked, "Declaration of war? What does that mean? Who issued it to us?"

Tong Ming: "Come to Yama Palace and talk about it there."

Out of curiosity about the battle book, Cen Xun decisively left his stall, picked up the remaining desserts, and staggered to the Yama Palace with the bird on his shoulder.

After entering the Yama Palace, Cen Xun discovered that he was not the only melon-eating weirdo. In addition to the original team of Nightmare University, there were also strange people mixed in with the melon-eating group.

Feng Jihan looked at Su Mingqi, Yun Shiyue and Zhou Mian, who had also applied to go on field work. They looked at each other and fell into an awkward silence.

We had agreed to go on a field trip, but we ended up meeting again in a nightmare world. This scene is really...

Yun Shiyue said silently: "I was looking for my brother and was arrested."

Su Mingqi said, "I went to look for Shi Qing, and he was also arrested."

Feng Jihan turned to Zhou Mian: "Xiao Zhou, what about you?"

Zhou Mian was silent for a while, not knowing how to start. Tong Ming, on the other hand, took the initiative to put his arm around his shoulders, seemingly in a very intimate manner: "Xiao Zhou, I brought you in."

Zhou Mian lifted the hand from his shoulder without saying a word.

Tong Ming smiled indifferently, and before Feng Jihan spoke, he opened the letter in Wusa's mouth: "Okay, let's talk about this letter first!"

Cen Xun took the object and took a look at it, but still couldn't make out the handwriting. "Who wrote this? The handwriting is so ugly, it seems quite uneducated."

Tong Ming pretended to be mysterious: "Fourth brother, why don't you take a guess?"

Cen Xun curled his lips and said, "Besides Fate, Time, and Natural Disaster, the only two monsters that dare to challenge me are Old Five and Old Seven."

"Old Five [Walker], Old Seven [Seven Evils], the only one who would resort to such an old-fashioned method as issuing a challenge is probably the belligerent Old Seven."

Cen Xun raised his eyes, his gaze deep: "Am I right?"

Tong Ming: "Bingo, you got it right."

"This was definitely written by Old Seven." Tong Ming sighed. "His level of education is worrying. He can't even write well. It seems that after all these years, Old Seven is still a simple-minded idiot with strong limbs."

Wusa leaned over to take a look: "So what does the letter say?"

Tong Ming compared the crooked handwriting on the letter and translated it: "The two words in the middle are 'War Letter'."

As for the content of the letter of war,

[My humble brother, if you don't close the door for one day, I will beat you up every day.]

"My despicable and insidious fourth brother, you have one day to close the strange domain, otherwise I will attack you mercilessly." Tong Ming couldn't help laughing as he recited, "The signature is Crazy Mechanical City."

Others after listening: ""

If it weren’t for the omniscience, who could have identified it?

Cen Xun pressed his eyebrows together: "Is Time fanning the flames again?"

Tong Ming shook his head regretfully: "I'm not sure, there's only this one letter, I can't see more."

0096 eagerly asked Cen Xun: "How about it, do you want to give him a shot?"

Feng Jihan only noticed 0096 this time. When he saw his face clearly, his pupils trembled slightly. Then he saw 0002 beside him, and his pupils trembled even more.

Yun Shiyue had just been shocked, and now she felt a little numb. She could still ask 0096 curiously: "Can it be launched that far?"

0096 felt that the girl looked strangely familiar, so he replied, "Yes, as long as you spend more points, you can reach the end of the Posuo Sea."

Cen Xun said, "No need. That idiot Old Seven is a stubborn person and vindictive. Once he gets excited about fighting, he will kill without regard for anyone. I have to stay in Fengdu Ghost City and don't have time to deal with him for the time being."

He said to Tong Ming, "Write a letter back to Lao Qi, telling him that I have already closed down the Ghost Domain and am preparing for the battle. Ask him to wait a few more days."

Tong Ming understood: "Brother, do you want to keep him hanging?"

Cen Xun said calmly, "The two strange regions are thousands of miles apart. It will take quite a while for the news to come back. By the time he reacts, the opportunity will have already passed."

I don’t have time to deal with Lao Qi, so I’ll just keep him hanging for now.

Even if the [Seven Evils] really come to kill him without knowing the consequences, Cen Xun has the home advantage and can just treat him as a delivery boy.

After drafting the reply, Zhou Mian took the initiative to look at the future with the letter, then nodded and said, "He will believe it, and he will not take any action in the short term, which is enough for Fengdu Ghost City to open smoothly until the end."

Tong Ming said dissatisfiedly, "That's it? Where are the details? What was that idiot Lao Qi's expression when he received the letter?"

Zhou Mian stuffed the letter directly back into his hands, and passed a cold look at Tong Ming: "I have no obligation to tell you."

Tong Ming smiled while holding the letter, then turned to look at Zhou Mian's back, his eyes darkening.

It's this indifferent and dead look that's so cool.

After coming out of Yama Palace, Cen Xun and Feng Jihan were both immersed in their own thoughts.

It wasn't until they reached the edge of a lake that Feng Jihan said, "Has [Time] appeared?"

Cen Xun: "Well, not only him, [Natural Disaster] also showed up, and I caught a third of them."

"One third?" Feng Jihan was stunned for a moment: "You beat her into three pieces?"

Cen Xun actually smiled when he heard this: "[Natural Disaster] can split itself into three parts according to the power sources of land, sea, and sky. Don't you know?"

Feng Jihan frowned: "She could only split it briefly before, and would force it to merge again after about ten minutes."

Cen Xun sat in the pavilion by the lake and took out a puff to eat without any surprise: "It seems that I am not the only one who has gained a new skill."

Feng Jihan sat down beside him, and suddenly a strange feeling arose in his heart: "Time has passed, and everyone has changed."

Cen Xun touched his toes: "Change is inevitable, and staying the same is accidental."

He raised his hand and pointed to the sky: "Feng Jihan, look, the weather is going to change."

Feng Jihan looked at the sky and banged his head on Cen Xun's shoulder. He grabbed Cen Xun's hand pointing to the sky, put it to his mouth and took a bite, commenting, "Sweet."

Tong Ming happened to pass by at this time. Seeing this, he quickly took a picture and decided to name this photo "The True Story of a Little Bird Dependant on a Person".
