Ox Sacrifice 1
A sea of white flowers appeared before their eyes. The white petals flew up in the wind and scattered in all directions, fluttering like paper money. Everyone felt shocked and terrified.
The game screen displays: [Players please continue forward and enter the dungeon. ]
Yan Ke frowned. He felt that the game mechanism seemed to be more perfect than last time. It was more like a game, but more abnormal.
Nan Yu looked at everyone and said, "Don't stay here. If you don't go in before the time limit, what if you die?"
At this time, the elderly couple, who looked to be in their eighties or nineties, the old man suddenly convulsed and fell to the ground. The old woman tried to support him, but she was too frightened and missed a step, and fell backwards with her head tilted back, and her blood dyed a large area of white petals red.
The others looked back, but remembering what Nan Yu had just said, they didn't dare to look back, fearing that something unexpected would happen to them.
As a soldier, Li Heng wanted to turn back.
Being grabbed by Yan Ke's arm, he shook his head: "It's too late, this is the rule of the game, they are too old, this is the gentle killing of the game."
Just as Li Heng was about to retort, the sea of flowers disappeared and everyone arrived in a city.
The sky turned into dusk. The architectural style was modern, but it was integrated with Chinese architecture, making the whole world seem like a strange and absurd dream.
"What's ahead?" the question was asked by a middle-aged man.
Nan Yu turned back to Yan Ke and whispered, "It seems like there's an extra plot introduction."
"What's the plot?"
At this time, many people appeared on both sides of the street. These people were wearing Hanfu and seemed to be COS. But if you look closely, you will find that their clothes are very consistent, like the uniform attire for participating in a traditional program.
The sudden appearance of several people did not attract everyone's attention.
At this moment, the sound of holographic salutes appeared on both sides of the street.
Several people stared at everything in front of them in amazement. This was not the world they lived in, it was the same yet different.
The streets began to become noisy, people raised their hands and cheered, as if they were welcoming something.
Everyone who saw this scene huddled together and stretched their necks to watch.
"Is the festival about to start?"
At this time, a man wearing Hanfu scholar's outfit appeared in front of everyone.
Holding three incense sticks in hand and stepping on the Seven Star Steps, someone lit firecrackers under his feet.
The holographic image displayed: "Wenchangjun Parade Begins!!"
Walking in front was a group of people dressed in Hanfu scholars' attire.
At this time, the game panel shows: [Instance: Oxen, Wenchangjun Travels, is one of the important activities in this instance world. It is a parade of worship for Wenchangjun held by many students, praying for success and fame. This world is mainly about education. The background introduction ends. Please explore on your own.]
"God parade? There are also corresponding customs and cultures in the southern part of our country, and they also pray for blessings and avoid disasters." Li Heng said: "My roommate is from that side. It belongs to the local culture. They attach great importance to the God parade."
Yan Ke looked at Nan Yu and asked, "How did you know about this plot introduction?"
Nan Yu did not reply, but instead said: "In this case, why not just issue the task directly to avoid a lot of trouble."
A girl who looked a little chubby, although not very noticeable, still asked: "Excuse me, have we traveled through time?"
He asked the others' questions.
Yan Ke asked: "Have you read any novels about infinite flow?"
The three girls and Li Heng nodded. The delivery boy looked at them and said, "Aren't you scared? Have you been in a dungeon before?"
Yan Ke turned her head and looked at Nan Yu, who said, "No, it's just that we know more. People who like to read novels know that a world like this where people die right away is a world of infinite flow, right?"
Everyone's heart was in turmoil. In the infinite flow world, if you are not the protagonist, you will die! !
Nan Yu was talking nonsense in a serious tone. Actually, he had never read any infinite flow novels. But as the strongest and weirdest BOSS, he had seen all kinds of technology. The chatterbox Fang Yu in the previous copy mentioned it once, and he was very interested, so he searched for it and found that there really were novels of this type.
Nan Yu sighed inwardly. With so many new people coming, their lives were worthless here. Except for Yan Ke, these people would most likely not be able to get out.
Yan Ke looked around and found that the four middle-aged men had left silently.
Li Heng asked him: "They left."
"Has your game panel given you any tasks?"
Li Heng nodded.
"Then don't worry about it. Now that we are here, we have to follow the rules of this world. Our missions may be different, so it's better to leave." Yan Ke said.
In fact, he is not willing to do things to help others, and sometimes he talks too much and easily gets into trouble.
The scholars came over here, all of them were young men, and passed by with light steps, bringing up a burst of firecrackers. Behind them was a dragon and lion dance team, which looked very lively.
Yan Ke and the others watched the parade and found that it was just as the game panel said, most of the people in the parade were dressed as scholars.
It seems that this world is about tasks related to reading.
Nanyu asked him: "Has your mission been released?"
Yan Ke looked at his game panel and there was indeed nothing there, but he received an email. After he clicked it, a letter appeared in his hand.
He opened it and saw:
Hello, you have been hired as a teacher at [Elite Middle School]. The assignment location has been sent to your email. You need to go to school in advance to prepare. Morning self-study will start at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning. Please do not be late.
Yan Ke knew his identity at this time, but he didn't know what his mission was. He flipped through the letter paper and found nothing, but then he found another piece of paper.
[Your doctoral dissertation has been rejected, please contact your supervisor in time...]
Nan Yu was surprised when he saw it: "What is your mission? Why is it a letter?"
"To be a teacher, I also have to contact a doctoral supervisor. In short, it feels very competitive."
Nan Yu also took out an envelope, looked at it for a few seconds and said, "Same."
Li Heng also had an envelope, the same as Nanyu and the others, and the other four people were the same as them.
One girl asked, "But I'm only in my third year of high school, how can I be a teacher?"
Nan Yu smiled and said, "I didn't go to school much, so I don't know how to be a teacher."
"What should we do next?" the delivery guy asked, "Are we all on the same mission?"
Yan Ke put away the envelope and said, "Since the missions have been issued, let's go report first."
Several people nodded, only Nanyu frowned: "I want to see what this festival is about after it's over."
Yan Ke looked at him, then said thoughtfully: "I'm watching too."
Li Heng was also a little curious, so he said, "I'll stay too."
The delivery guy said, "Okay, you guys stay here, I'll leave first."
The other three girls thought about it and decided to go to school together with the delivery boy, for fear of wasting time and breaking the rules.
So there were only three of them left watching the festival.
The Wenchang God Procession is really lively, and the snack shops along the street are also crowded.
Nan Yu asked Yan Ke: "Are you curious too?"
Yan Ke nodded: "This is the first time I've seen such a grand ceremony."
Li Heng also said: "Me too, but my sixth sense is stronger, and I feel safer following you." Li Heng said to Yan Ke.
"Um... okay." Yan Ke didn't know what to reply.
Nanyu saw the candied haws and said, "I want to eat that. I'll go buy it."
Yan Ke asked him back: "Do you have money?"
Nanyu took out his phone and said, "Give it a try."
Then a few people found that the money in the mobile phone could be spent, which was really strange.
In a corner that they couldn't see, the people who bought candied haws quietly changed some rules because they were afraid of Nanyu.
They walked along with the parade group, and this place really had the air of down-to-earth life.
"Will you get a stomachache from eating these things?" Li Heng said.
"Eat, one meal less at a time." Nan Yu said bluntly.
At this time, Li Heng was still wearing a military uniform and carrying a gun, but no one looked at him with doubt.
The more weird Li Heng felt, the more relaxed he felt. These two people were really strange. He always felt relaxed following them. He had already come to such a strange world, but he still had to take on strange tasks.
Everyone in the parade had makeup on their faces and behaved in a solemn and graceful manner. The three people who followed the team also got to see the parade gods.
As time passed, the procession suddenly sped up.
Four strong men ran past carrying Jiaozi.
Nanyu was very happy to see this, and pulled the two of them and said, "Let's go faster and see what they are doing over there. Hey, someone is buying incense, let's go buy some too."
The statue of Wenchangjun was carried in Jiaozili, and there were firecrackers and fireworks all the way. Compared with the silence of the previous copy, this world was really lively.
Finally, Nanyu dragged the two of them to buy incense and came to the place where everyone was queuing, which was the temple of Wenchang Jun. They lined up to light three incense sticks.
Nanyu just felt that it would be more lively with more people around and he would not be so lonely.
Yan Ke felt that since the game panel said that this was the background introduction, there would be no harm in knowing more about it. The task only stated that morning self-study would not start until six o'clock tomorrow, and it was only eight o'clock in the evening now, so it would not delay anything at all.
Only Li Heng felt that this world was full of people, really like the South, but technology seemed to be quite advanced. The holographic images were lifelike, the sound of the speakers was very penetrating, and many places brought him a lot of surprises. If he could take these things out, wouldn't it be a great achievement?
Li Heng followed Yan Ke and Nan Yu, walking and stopping as if they were visiting a temple fair.
Several people in Nanyu lit incense, followed the trend and prayed, and even hung up prayer boards with their own thoughts.
Yan Ke wrote: "Peace and joy."
Nan Yu wrote: "I hope I won't be lonely for the rest of my life."
Li Heng wrote: "Peace in the world."
Neither of them read what the other wrote, but a beautiful memory was left here.
