Chapter 161 Earning 90 Million in a Week 25
Jin Ruyi suddenly threw a monster over, and Jiang Yuelu was on full alert.
But the "monster" soon stopped in front of him. He did not let his guard down, as he had never seen anything other than the screen in this room!
"It won't hurt you." Jin Ruyi explained, "It's just talking to you."
"Talk to me?"
"Listen carefully and see if there are any sounds in your mind."
Jiang Yuelu thought about it carefully and felt that Jin Ruyi was not trying to mislead him. If something happened to him, she would never know Wang Linrong's whereabouts again.
Thinking about how he had previously asked the other party how she got the information about herself, it became clear to him: Could it be that this "thing" told her?
He slowly relaxed, and looked at the dark green floating object in front of him with a strange feeling. It looked like a moldy bud tip, bulging and pulsating, as if it was breathing.
It’s even weirder when you think about it this way.
He stared at the tip of the moldy bud, and suddenly felt a voice appear directly in his mind.
"Your relatives are not in my ghost city."
Jiang Yuelu was stunned. "Cycad?"
"Your relatives are not in my ghost city."
“…”
Jiang Yuelu tried several times and found that Meiyajian could only repeat this sentence. Seeing that he remained silent for a long time, Jin Ruyi guessed that this thing had appeared again, but she didn't know whether the words heard by the judge were the same as hers.
Jiang Yuelu raised his head and said, "It was it that told you about me."
"Yeah." Jin Ruyi nodded. "It seems to know the contestants of the Yinsi Money Contest very well. Every time my opponent appears, it will comment on him. You... are quite special."
"Oh?" Jiang Yuelu was quite surprised.
"When you came out...it was very excited and talked a lot."
“…”
"And now it's running right in front of you..." Jin Ruyi complained inwardly, it was as if these extreme fans couldn't get enough of watching them on TV and had to go to the scene to meet them in person.
"You mean, this is the first time it's gone off the screen?"
Jin Ruyi said yes.
Jiang Yuelu narrowed her eyes, her gaze moving back and forth between the moldy thing and the screen. It was truly unbelievable, how on earth did it get through the screen?
Logically speaking, everything in this room belongs to Linya City. They are confined in these similar small rooms and cannot move at all, but this little thing can move around freely... Wait, ah.
Jiang Yuelu was stunned.
Then, his tone suddenly became unstable, "Do you think it looks familiar?"
"Black and green style?" Jin Ruyi looked at the little monster that he had seen countless times. "Most of the things in Linya City are black and green, and they are similar to what we saw when we came in..."
She suddenly realized it and opened her mouth, "Lin Ya?!"
"Yes, it's the lin buds, the peeled lin bud slices."
Jin Ruyi couldn't believe it.
This was the last thing Wang Linrong left for her. She had watched it carefully hundreds of times, if not a thousand times. However, she had never connected this small black and green block with the plump scales at the beginning.
First, the time before each show was very short and she seldom had time to take a closer look.
Second, the size of this small piece cannot be compared with the rosette-like bud, and at first glance it is impossible to conclude that the two are related.
The reason why they were able to connect so quickly this time was because the Inquisitor had conjured up the Scale Bud in the previous PK. She didn't even think it was an illusion because it was so real.
Was the Lin Ya that the Inquisitor saw before the opening ceremony different from them? Did he have enough time to observe?
Jin Ruyi didn't know that Jiang Yuelu had a photographic memory, but in that PK, she knew for sure that the linya slices could be peeled off layer by layer, because Jiang Yuelu showed her.
The buds on the outside are larger, what about the ones inside?
Isn’t it just a small one, just like... this one?
"What on earth is this thing..." Jin Ruyi murmured, "If it is related to Lin Ya City, is it related to the capital lord Cycas? Was Lin Rong taken away by Cycas? No, she must have been taken away, otherwise she wouldn't have the Lin Ya piece!"
"Where the hell is she?"
Jiang Yuelu ignored her, still immersed in his own thoughts.
As soon as he had a thought, countless thoughts extended to him. His brain was spinning rapidly, and even his eyes became slightly hazy, reflecting the unicorn bud floating in the air.
After a long time, he suddenly reached out and grasped the scale bud.
"What do you think? Could it be that Lin Rong knows something, so she..." Jin Ruyi suddenly had an idea and was about to look up to confirm with the judge, but found that there was no one on the screen in front of her.
The inquisitor who was on the screen just now disappeared.
"...Judge?" Jin Ruyi was stunned for a moment, then suddenly raised his voice, "Judge?!"
Just as she was about to call Ximujin over, a familiar voice came from the empty screen opposite, "I'm here."
“…”
She was a dead person, but her heart was forced to beat. Jin Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief and suddenly realized something.
...Is the Inquisitor's voice softer than before?
"Where are you?" Jin Ruyi was puzzled.
At this moment, Jiang Yuelu was visiting her own live broadcast room - the live broadcast room in reality, which was the narrow game room.
"After entering this competition, I have been staring at this screen. All activities are mainly live broadcasts, and I have never taken a good look at this room."
Jin Ruyi felt even more bored. "The rooms are all the same. What's so good about them?"
"Yes, they are all the same. Why didn't I notice it before?" Jiang Yuelu walked along the wall with difficulty. It was too narrow, it was really too narrow here.
"This crappy place... isn't even as big as the booths in my old internet cafe." Jiang Yuelu thought, but suddenly realized, "So, isn't the live broadcast room of each of our players also like an internet cafe with a similar layout? The computers in the internet cafe are lined up one by one, and the players participating in the competition will also sit together."
Every player entered the competition...
But they can't see each other...
Jiang Yuelu stared at the faint green glowing scales in his hand, "But it can move freely..."
A laugh sounded softly, and Jiang Yuelu said to herself, "I think I guessed it."
"Guess what?"
"Jin Ruyi, I'm coming to see you."
Although she didn't understand why he was so incoherent, she still agreed: "Okay, if you want, we can do a live broadcast later, but..."
The conversation stopped abruptly.
Jin Ruyi looked at the stranger who suddenly appeared in her room in shock, and did not get up from her chair for a while.
Jiang Yuelu raised her eyebrows and looked at Jin Ruyi who was leaning back in the chair. She was no longer the fierce mother who summoned the skeleton man on the screen, but an ordinary young woman.
She was wearing dinosaur pajamas with a tail, her hair was messy, her eyes were black and swollen, and she was holding a pack of tissues in her hand. The ground was covered with crumpled tissues.
After seeing him, her mouth opened into an O shape.
"Jin Ruyi?"
"…Inquisitor?"
Jin Ruyi was so shocked that she couldn't recover. In all these years of participating in the competition, she had never seen other people in the room!
"How did you get here? Is this your ability?" Jin Ruyi secretly looked at the judge. He was much younger than she thought.
"No." Jiang Yuelu shook her head, "Without your help, I might not be able to come here."
"My help?"
Seeing the linya piece in Jiang Yuelu's hand, Jin Ruyi was extremely surprised, "Is it this?"
"I've thought about it before. Each of our anchors' rooms are exactly the same, just like a single room in a hotel. And since we're in the same competition, we shouldn't be far away. It's just that the black wall in front of us is very solid, and I couldn't think of a way to get out for a while."
Jiang Yuelu asked: "Have you ever thought about going out?"
"Uh... I think I thought about it at first, but then my attention wasn't on these things anymore."
First of all, once you enter a competition, you have to think about how to make money. There is no point in thinking about leaving.
Secondly, electronic screens are harmful. This screen is more user-friendly than a computer. It is like an immersive holographic live broadcast platform that brings double ultimate enjoyment to the host and the audience. When immersed in the virtual world, you will no longer pay attention to the reality around you.
Jiang Yuelu was able to do the opposite, firstly because he had just participated in the competition.
Furthermore, he began to doubt that the so-called rules of the Yinsi Money Competition were not valid. Even if you won first place, you would not be able to redeem the reward, but would disappear like Wang Linrong and Ximujin's brother.
So now he can't just focus on making money, he has to think of other breakthroughs.
As a contestant who has been participating in the competition for many years, Jin Ruyi quickly accepted the reality. However, the awkwardness of meeting netizens offline was still lingering for a while. When she came to her senses, she suddenly felt speechless.
"What are you going to do?"
“…”
She watched Jiang Yuelu walk from one end to the other along the wall.
It looks like walking, but it's actually similar to climbing a wall.
Moreover, while twisting and crawling, it had to tightly hold the scales in its hand, and its posture was even darker.
Jin Ruyi felt her eyebrows twitch violently twice. She found it hard to connect this twisted and crawling young man with the cold-blooded judge in the live broadcast room.
However, a guy who crawls like this is more likely to have a wife...
Maybe it was found by the twisting and crawling ability...
"Wait." Jiang Yuelu climbed halfway and suddenly realized, "I don't have to go to the other end. I should be able to pass through these four walls."
As soon as he finished speaking, his upper body melted into the air and disappeared.
Jin Ruyi: “…”
For some reason, she also slid down from the chair and kicked away the pieces of paper on the ground that she had used to wipe her tears. Jiang Yuelu came back and was almost startled by her.
The woman who had been standing silently behind him asked, "Who is in the room opposite?"
"Ximujin."
"Didn't he see you?"
"This wall is behind him. He seems to be in a meeting and not paying attention."
Jin Ruyi suddenly smiled twistedly.
Jiang Yuelu: "...What are you going to do?"
"Do you know how I felt when you appeared in front of me just now?" Jin Ruyi said with great resentment, "It's so embarrassing. I must see with my own eyes how shocked others are."
…
"Very good, let's continue at this efficiency." Ximujin listened to last night's profit report and made sharp comments, without noticing that the wall behind him seemed to melt, and a man and a woman appeared.
The woman's face was twitching violently.
To explain her excitement in three words, it would be: watch the show!
Liusu listened to Lao Liu's report carelessly, yawned, and suddenly froze. She seemed to see a head appear behind the president.
The president’s live broadcast room is full of golden light and there is never anything dirty.
The sudden appearance of a head was definitely not meant to scare them. Liusu thought she had seen it wrong, but she rubbed her eyes twice and looked up.
Oh shit!
How come it turned into two heads!
Two human heads appeared above the president who was nodding frequently and unaware, melting half of the golden background. The president's virtual live broadcast room seemed to be corroded by a strange and powerful force, and dark green juice flowed inward from the edge.
Ximujin said unhappily, "Lady Liusu, you have been in a daze for a long time, why don't you listen carefully?"
“President, President…”
"On your head, on your head..."
Old Liu sneered: “What’s on your head, you coward—Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!!!”
In an instant, everyone in the Corpse Society except Tang Ze rioted.
Tang Ze calmly pointed to his head, "President. On my head."
Now Ximujin was really sure that something was wrong on his side. He glanced at his own perspective from the lower right and found the strange black and green changes and the two black shadow heads.
He quickly turned off the camera, his heart pounding.
Fuck!
I can actually enter reality. This is the first time in all these years of participating in the competition!
Damn it... I'm almost there finding my brother.
Ximujin wiped his face fiercely and turned back in anger, only to meet the eyes of two "monsters" who were not ugly or twisted at all but pleasing to the eye. The female one had a weird smile and looked like a real monster. She said with a bad taste: "Ximujin, you are so short. Wow, that's so exaggerated. Why are you crying because of fear?"
This must be a monster!
Ximujin immediately removed the appearance filter.
Not only is it vulgar, it's also vicious and knows exactly how to provoke me!
The absolute monster is gone!
Ximujin was so angry that he was shaking all over. He calmly ordered, "Tangze, go call the judge, go call the judge!"
As he spoke, he wiped his face and wiped away his tears. He thought to himself, it's a good thing no one saw it. If other anchors knew that the famous president of the Corpse Club, Ximujin, cried every time he was excited, he would have no chance of staying in the ghost city.
In this way, he couldn't help but appreciate the rules and restrictions of the competition.
So that they don't have to meet offline.
"No."
"Ah?" Ximujin looked up in surprise.
The handsome young man who had been silent but whose presence could not be ignored spoke, "I am the Inquisitor. Hello... President Xi, wipe your tears first."
