Chapter 19

Speaking of being pranked, why is the word "又" added to "剑挑 Emei"?

This story starts from the time when the servers had not yet been merged into Yunfeiyang.

At that time, the Demon Palace was still called the Demon Palace, but the Counter-Strike was called Faith, and the gang leader was not "War Soul", but a male gun player named "Flying Dragon in the Sky". When he was defeated in every way but could not afford to offend Pei Muyang, he thought of a sinister way, which was to write a spoof article on the forum with the protagonist having the same name as "Can Ruo Jiao Yang".

The "Can Ruo Jiao Yang" in the article is portrayed as a loser who is greedy, lustful, arrogant, and in love with male competition.

Even in the later period, due to the author's spoof, "Can Ruo Jiao Yang" was described as a villain that was extremely hated by readers.

The key is that you can't get angry yet.

When people get angry, they just say that this story is purely fictional and any similarities are purely coincidental.

The person who made it really has no temper.

Just when everyone in the Demon Palace didn't know how to clear their leader's name and vent their anger, Pei Muyang unexpectedly found another way and stayed on the forum on time every day to urge for updates.

It would be fine if he was simply urging for updates, but what is even more incomprehensible is that he actually enjoys reading the article so much that he even gives instructions in the comment section on how to write more perverted articles.

This really made the other party feel helpless. They just called him bad luck and called him a lunatic.

In the end, the author himself could not bear the double mental torture and deleted the post.

"So what happened this time?" Pei Muyang was so excited that he couldn't help but ask.

"Boss, did you know the official website recently held a player beauty contest? If you're confident in your looks and don't think you're ugly, you can upload a photo to the event section to participate. But then some unscrupulous person pretended to be you and uploaded a hideous photo. Now all the players are calling you ugly and saying you're the cause of trouble."

"The IDs used to post on the official website are all the same as my game accounts. How did they impersonate me?"

"Well, from what I've observed, they probably created a version of Brilliant Sun with a space in its name. Since the space isn't noticeable, you can't see it unless you look closely."

"Is this possible?" Pei Muyang expressed his incomprehension. Why hadn't he noticed this bug in creating an ID in the game before?

"I also discovered this accidentally when I was creating a warehouse number. Adding a space after the name doesn't work, but adding it at the beginning or in the middle is fine. It's more obvious in the game, but on the official website, because the font is smaller, it's not very obvious."

"Um……"

Pei Muyang responded and stopped talking, as if he was thinking of a countermeasure. However, the big boss who heard it clearly next to him couldn't help but speak.

"Do you need my help?"

A strong and deep voice rang out in the quiet YY room, which scared "Jian Tiao Emei" to death.

"Shit, who is this guy? Yi? Could it be...it's not the Yi I'm thinking of?"

I actually forgot about this person.

Pei Muyang's train of thought was interrupted, and he then remembered that there was a main enemy force in the YY channel. If he listened to his countermeasures and went back to learn them from the imposter, how could he counterattack unexpectedly?

So Pei Muyang frowned and said, "Thank you, but no thanks. We can handle our own problems. I've posted what you want on the platform. You can do whatever you need to do."

This order to expel the guest was not polite at all. "Yi." He seemed to hesitate for a few seconds, but in the end he said nothing and voluntarily withdrew from the Demon Palace's YY.

"Boss, why are you in our YY with that big guy?"

"Sell him something."

"Oh... so you didn't have a fight?"

"Am I such an unqualified person?"

"Does the gang leader want me to tell the truth or a lie?"

"I want you to shut up."

"oh."

The room was silent for a few seconds.

"So, how are you going to deal with this matter, Gang Leader?"

"Still thinking, no idea."

"Um... I have something to say but I'm not sure if I should say it or not..."

"If you're saying something outrageous, don't say it, or I might kill you to silence you."

"It's not that serious... In fact, I think the damage this time is far less severe than last time. After all, you are well-known, Gang Leader. It's most likely not the gang's behavior, but an individual's. To put it bluntly, they simply dislike you."

"Tsk! How can you talk like that? Am I that annoying?"

"Boss, you're stroking those 1.5-pack pecs and saying that. Don't you have any idea whether it's annoying or not?"

Pei Muyang touched it and decided not to argue with him for the time being.

"I have a way to deal with this matter, but it may require me to sacrifice some of my reputation."

"Hmm? What's the solution?"

"That is..."

An hour later, a post titled "Li Kui or Li Gui" became popular on the forum and became the most popular post at the time.

The reason was that the poster revealed that a player on his server, in order to maliciously discredit the leader of a rival gang, used a fake account to impersonate the player's style competition on the official website, and used an ugly online picture as the player's photo, causing serious reputational damage to the victim.

After watching this, some netizens said that this kind of player is disgusting and called on the people behind the scenes to get out of the game and never come to this pure land.

Some suggested that the victim collect evidence and find a lawyer to sue him for such a terrible thing.

Of course, not all the netizens can stand on the side of support, and some have expressed doubts.

Every July 23rd: Who can prove that person is an imposter? What if it was actually posted by the victim? These self-directed stories aren't uncommon these days, and we're urging everyone to be rational about what happens next. What if the truth turns out to be so humiliating?

[Cat Bride: Ha! Don't you understand what online pictures are? You can find the same pictures using the search engine's built-in image recognition. If you don't know something so simple, why not try to imitate others and eat melons?]

[Longmen Escort Agency Senior Sister: I just went to the official website and checked it out. That picture is indeed from the internet. My friend sent it to me before and even edited it into an emoticon. It's absolutely true.]

Midnight Bird Walk: It's confirmed. So, what else do the earlier skeptics have to say? @July 23rd of every year.

Someone compared the picture on the official website with the picture obtained through image recognition, and no one would doubt the authenticity of the ugly online picture anymore.

Just when everyone thought that the truth of the matter had been revealed and there was no need to pay further attention to it, some discordant voices once again came into people's sight.

[Little Karami: Shining like the sun, right? Is he the one who called the rich guy "Dad" last time? Speaking of which, isn't this person a bit too gossipy? They say flies don't bite cracked eggs, but is this person really that innocent?]

[Mengyao: You're blaming the victim. Why can't the victim be innocent? Let me tell you, some people just can't stand seeing others have even the slightest bit of success. They wish everyone in the world would live worse than them!]

[Little Karami: Continuing from above… Besides, that Can Ruo Jiao Yang is so concerned about people criticizing his appearance. Is it because he’s ugly himself that he’s sensitive to such comments?]

[Infrastructure Maniac: Ugly? Please go to the official website event section and take a look. If someone who looks like that is still called ugly, then please, the talkative king above, hold up a sign and take a photo so we can admire your honor.]

[Does it hurt, baby? What's going on? Can someone explain it to me?]

[President of Shanhai University: To reply to the above, the photo is truly as dazzling as the scorching sun. That appearance is absolutely stunning!]

Someone followed the link posted below to the official website event page, and it turned out that the real "Can Ruo Jiao Yang" also signed up for the Player Style Competition.

The picture posted under the ID "Canruo Jiaoyang" shows a young man in his twenties with a handsome appearance and outstanding temperament. His bright facial features look particularly sunny, and his gentle smile is as warm as the sun in May.

The young man looks like a college student, and the environment he is in should be a school dormitory. The camera does not give many angles, so it is impossible to guess which university it is. However, there is an open laptop on the table behind him, and the screen is clearly logged into the game page of "Jiuzhou Longyin". If you zoom in on the picture and look carefully, you can also see that the name "Can Ruo Jiaoyang" is on the head of the male mage wearing free costumes.

Facts speak louder than words. If this is not true, I don’t know what else is true.

[Barbie on the Run: I suddenly feel like pulling my first love out and giving her a beating...]

[Midnight Bird Walker: Wait, we were just discussing looks, and Canruo Jiaoyang posted a photo over there. Are we being spied on? Right?]

[The cutest Tuzki: Brilliant as the sun, if you're here, please let me know. I'm really curious about your looks! How about we get to know each other without any shame?]

The post that was more than ten pages long then went off topic. Everyone was discussing the appearance of "Can Ruo Jiao Yang", and there were even confessions and various hookups, but unfortunately "Can Ruo Jiao Yang" never showed up in the post from beginning to end.

Hit me, idiot: Just asking, is my network card broken or something? Where is my big, handsome Jiaoyang brother? Why is the page down?

[I’m so pissed off: Same question, I can’t find it either, but luckily I have a saved picture. Are you jealous?]

[Ji: Hurry up and open the portal below. The imposter has apologized and said he's received an official warning. If he doesn't admit his mistake, his account will be permanently banned.]

[Mingming: Are you sure this is the official way? My account was stolen last month and I asked for an explanation, but now they're still arguing with me. Which official is this?]

[LKYS: The fake post has also been removed. It seems the authorities have finally done something.]

[Hit me, idiot: No... What did Can Ruo Jiao Yang do wrong? Why did you even delete his photos? ? ]

[One dot and one long horizontal line: Hiss! I never eat warm watermelon. Can someone please explain to me what's going on? ?]

The result of the handling later was that the player who impersonated someone else had to apologize publicly for damaging the player's reputation, and the relevant activity pages were also officially closed. Later, both the impersonated online pictures and the photos of "Canruo Jiaoyang" himself were completely deleted.

After doing all this, someone smiled faintly and closed the chat page of the official VIP customer service. He was about to go into the game to find "Can Ruo Jiao Yang" to take credit, but found that he had been blocked by the other party.

Jiang Chengyi: "???"
