"IN OFF" game regulations: During the guidance process, if a white-name NPC commits a major violation, the system will punish it depending on the severity of the violation.
And now, what Su Jing was thinking about was the most serious violation of the white-name NPC.
Su Jian remained calm after hearing the prompt.
——Haha, how can a marshmallow have an expression?
The system detected that the offending NPC showed no remorse and immediately punished Su Jing with brain interference.
Su Jing stood there motionless, unnoticed by anyone, and calmly accepted the punishment.
Ten seconds later, the system prompt sounded again:
[The punishment failed, and I applied for re-interference.]
"Hmm."
Su Jing tilted his round head slightly.
Twenty seconds later, the system: [The penalty failed again, try again.]
Half a minute later, Su Qiong was getting impatient waiting when the system prompted him for the third time: [Punishment blocked, requesting advanced punishment.]
Su Jing wasted a few minutes for nothing, so he simply ignored the garbage system and analyzed the second half of the nursery rhyme with them.
About two minutes later, the system's mechanical voice began to sound like frustration for the first time.
[Detected that the NPC has no brain, the command is abnormal, and the punishment is terminated. ]
Su Jian: ...
You have no brains!
I've already obediently accepted the punishment, so why is this rubbish system still criticizing the code?!
"Su Qimiao." Yu Qimiao babble for a long time, but still can't hear Su Qimiao's soft voice. He calls him and asks, "Are you listening?"
"No." Su Jing admitted honestly.
Those who follow me win cursed, "You have a pig brain? So all our analysis just now was in vain?!"
"I'm not a pig-brained person." Su Qiong was touched in the heart and responded softly, "I don't have any brains."
A few seconds ago, the system told Su Qiong angrily: You have no brains!
Not even a pig's brain.
Those who follow me will win. He didn't understand Su Jing's body structure, so he thought he was responding passively and opened his mouth to say something more.
Before he could finish his ridicule, Yu Qimiao gently soothed him, "It's okay, I'll say it again."
Those who follow me win:???
Brother, you didn't look like this when you chopped off my head ten times during the day.
Shi Yuntian gripped the hilt of the knife and glared at him, "Any objections?"
Those who follow me win: "...No."
Yu Qimiao faced Su Jing, his body seemingly enveloped in a holy light, and he slowly repeated the conclusion he had just reached.
The first half of the nursery rhyme tells about the girls who unfortunately met the wrong man and married into Gan Gan Village.
The second half of the nursery rhyme tells the story of "they" who were born in Gangan Village and had a miserable life.
Gangan Village is a real-life replica. Without human intervention, a pregnant woman has the same probability of giving birth to a son or a daughter.
When baby boys are born in the village, there are naturally baby girls as well.
The village has always favored boys over girls, and the situation has become more and more serious with the development of the times.
It is estimated that since twenty years ago, the news of "cannibalism" in Gangan Village has spread throughout the surrounding area, and nearby villagers are afraid to marry their daughters there.
Seeing that they couldn't trick girls from outside, the villagers turned their attention to the "resources" within the village.
You know, men in the village marry wives in order to have big fat boys.
In the process of giving birth to a big fat boy, it is inevitable to give birth to several daughters as "accessories".
In the past, there was a recognized village rule in Gangan Village that daughters were not allowed to marry outside the village and had to stay in the village to find a husband.
"Exchange marriage" means exchanging one's own daughter for another family's daughter and marrying her to the son as a daughter-in-law.
Although a daughter has to be 'paid' for marriage through exchange, it has one advantage.
The girls in the village have no one to rely on and have to stay in Gangan Village for the rest of their lives, so they don’t have to be locked up in iron cages and tied up. They can also be forced to work like slaves to support their families.
At the beginning, the family of the bride-to-be was still concerned about the face of the girl's father and pretended to take care of the girl in front of others.
Over time, the number of families exchanging brides for marriage increased. The old customs passed down through generations in the village were difficult to change, and some people relapsed into their old ways and assaulted the brides they had exchanged for marriage.
The next day, the villagers who had exchanged marriages with that family slaughtered a "pig" with great fanfare.
And then...
"Beasts! A bunch of beasts!" Shi Yuntian stiffened his fists. "Yu Qimiao is right. This village has no reason to exist."
"I've always found it strange. The mother and sister mentioned in the nursery rhymes don't exist in Gan Gan Village. Why do I keep asking?"
It turned out that my mother and sister had become their daughter-in-law and gold mine.
Su Jing stared straight at the stone tablet.
Perhaps because of his sensory experience, he felt complicated and felt powerlessness and sadness more deeply.
"You..." Lu Shufan was eloquent, but he couldn't calm their anger from a human perspective. He could only palely remind them, "Don't take it too seriously. This is a game world. Everything we see is controlled by the dungeon NPCs. It's all fake!"
Su Qi slowly turned to him and pulled out the system's prompt, "Gan Gan Village is a real-life instance. The stories here really happened."
"Oh, what a real-life copy." Lu Shufan smacked his lips, and felt the urge to destroy the copy.
"Until then, we have to find a way to complete the mission."
Yu Qimiao asked Su Qiong, "Shall we cross the river?"
Su Qiong thought for a long time and shook his head, "They hate men and won't see you."
"What should we do? Even if Yuyu wears women's clothes, it's no use. Where can we find female players?"
The female player assigned to the Gan Gan Village dungeon by the system was scared away by the old bachelor before entering the village.
Looking around the entire village, the only women who are able to move are Grandma Li and Li Ting.
Li Ting is young, and Grandma Li may be a dungeon NPC whose job is to prevent players and white-name NPCs from passing the level.
Who dares to mess with her?
"What should we do now? We finally found a clue, should we give up?"
Su Qiong looked across the river and spoke slowly, "Even if there are no female players, I can still find people to cross the river. And, 'they' will definitely accept us."
The players were confused.
"Who is it?"
Su Qiong didn't answer, but floated up and said, "Go to bed early, we have to go into the city tomorrow."
The next morning, the bus into town was ready to arrive.
You can't make a penny staying in the village, and not making money is almost equivalent to failing the game.
With only one day left to complete the Gangan Village dungeon, only a few players remained. They eagerly waited for the bus to go to the city to earn money.
The bus drivers were particularly violent, and since they didn't have tickets, they would definitely be kicked off by the driver.
Just when the remaining players were at a loss, Su Jian poked a few more holes in his cloak and handed them to them.
"Thank you, thank you." The players expressed their gratitude while feeling surprised.
Why was Su Jing indifferent last time but came to help today?
Does he have some conspiracy?
Su Jian tugged at his tattered cloak and explained briefly, "There's not much fabric left, only a few pieces."
As a white-name NPC, Su Jian is willing to provide equal guidance to every player.
However, except for Yu Qimiao and the others, the other players looked at Su Jian as if they were looking at living experience and equipment.
Su Jing is of low level and limited ability, so it is difficult for him to fight off dozens of people who have murderous intentions towards him at the same time.
The other players looked at Su Jing's shining back, then looked at his tattered cloak, their faces burning with pain.
Su Jian felt no emotion at all. He followed Yu Qimiao off the bus at the stop and went to the stock exchange to check the money he had left behind.
Yu Qi Miao has no experience in playing games, but he has rich experience in making money.
In just five days, he went from being penniless to having assets of five million, which was enough for every player in the dungeon to complete the main quest.
Su Qiong: "Now exchange it for the currency recognized by Gan Gan Village, and you can leave the dungeon. Do you need me to help you exchange it?"
Yu Qimiao refused, "No, I want to know the truth about the copy more."
After saying that, Yu Qimiao took out all his property and said to the players who were like zombies.
"Do you want to clear the level?"
"Yes! I dream about it!"
Yu Qimiao smiled and whispered devilishly, "Let's make a deal?"
He who obeys me wins. He touched his neck and shuddered.
——Su Jing’s reserve of wronged species has increased again.
After sending those players away, Yu Qi Miao left enough money on him to pass the level, and then they followed Su Jing through twists and turns and entered an alley full of lights and wine.
Deep in the alley, beauty and desire collide wildly, and the air is filled with an ambiguous smell.
"Susu, when did you come to a place like this alone last time?" Lu Shufan's eyes lit up with admiration.
"Um."
"You didn't see anything, did you?" Yu Qimiao looked nervous, just like an old mother who was afraid that her child would go astray.
"No." Su Qi asked confusedly, "Should I see anything?"
"No, nothing."
Everyone tacitly changed the subject.
"Speaking of which, who are you taking us to?"
"Their shop is in front," Su Jing led them and stopped in front of a closed shop door.
It's still early and Fengchen Store hasn't opened yet.
Su Jing told them that there was a young woman from Gan Gan Village inside. Several players exchanged glances and decided to knock on the door directly.
Shi Yuntian hammered the door a few times, and the boss inside opened the door impatiently.
Seeing that Shi Yuntian was tall and strong and looked difficult to deal with, his expression changed in an instant and he asked him with an apologetic smile what was the matter.
Shufan, the social deer, walked into the store and found no one around. He blinked his peach blossom eyes and asked, "Boss, we'd like to find a few people. Is that convenient?"
The boss looked embarrassed, "The sisters in the store just got off work, I'm afraid..."
Halfway through his words, Yu Qimiao took out two stacks of large-denomination banknotes and threw them on the counter.
Lu Shufan repeated, "Is it convenient now?"
"Convenient! Convenient!" The boss's ability to pay made him change his words immediately and took out the list for the guests to choose from.
He who follows me wins was unable to get a word in and thought worriedly: Oh no, while I was immersed in the vanity of being surrounded by people, the three players in the same copy had already realized that they had their own responsibilities and started to cooperate.
If it is a game that requires fighting, whoever follows me will win and I will use my heads to hit them!
How strange.
Those who follow me will win thought doubtfully: In reality, these three people are all loners and upper-class people.
What kind of magic makes them willing to cooperate?
While thinking, He Who Follows Me Wins heard the real 'magic' speaking.
"It's them." Su Jing poked at the roster and found the people he had met last time.
Yu Qimiao didn't waste any words and took out another stack of money. "Let them leave with me for two days, okay?"
The boss held the money, feeling it was hot in his hand, and said hesitantly, "That's fine with me, but those girls you chose treat this place like home and definitely won't want to go with you."
"As long as you nod, I will make them agree."
For the sake of money, the lady boss gritted her teeth and nodded, "Okay, I'll go talk to them."
Twenty minutes later, three young girls came up to them.
The girls dressed up specially, with pretty faces and slim figures.
The moment she saw Su Jing, the beauty put away the smile on her face.
"Why are you here again? You're really haunting me."
"Boss, I won't answer these people!"
The boss said embarrassedly, "Aqiu, they gave too much. For the sake of money, you should bear with it a little, okay?"
“…” The girls had been struggling in the city and knew the importance of money, so they had no choice but to agree.
Yu Qi Miao booked a room suitable for talking and explained his purpose in a few words. The expressions of the girls opposite him were more and more resistant.
"I'm not going back!"
"You risked your life to escape from hell. If it were you, would you jump in again?"
"I know you hate Gangan Village, but..." They were unwilling to go back, and the mission was doomed to fail.
"But what? You have nothing to say, right?" The girl in the yellow skirt was called Aqiu. She was sharp-tongued and had her arms folded, looking alert.
Several players really had nothing to say.
They really want to complete the mission, but if you put yourself in their shoes, you can understand their decision not to return to Gangan Village.
The situation was at a stalemate for a while.
Shi Yuntian clenched the heavy blade, then put it down, clenched it again, and finally let go.
Forcing a few girls by force is so unmanly.
"Are you done? Let's go! I hate dealing with the people from Gan Gan Village."
"I feel dirty if I say a few more words to you."
"You actually want us to go back to that damn place, it's simply..."
"I will protect you."
Before they left, Su Jing spoke extremely firm words in a soft voice.
Aqiu paused.
"Can you come with me? They need you." Su Jing said, "I promise you, we will definitely protect you."
When Aqiu heard this, he suddenly lowered his head, bit his lower lip tightly, and struggled violently in his heart.
"Hey, Qiu, hurry up."
"Do you want to go with them? Hey, hey, hey, look carefully, those are men from Gan Gan Village!"
Aqiu raised his hands and covered his head tightly.
In my mind, Su Jing's voice overlapped with thousands of other voices.
"Don't be afraid, sister."
"Sister will protect you!"
"Just keep going forward and don't look back!"
"Will you really protect me?" Qiu turned around, her voice trembling, "Like those sisters?"
"Yes." Su Qi replied seriously, "If you are harmed in the slightest, I will destroy Gan Gan Village."
