Chapter 16
Recently, there have been endless discussions about the first copy of the game Desperate Situation. Netizens have found many hidden talents, which made Zhan Mu, who knows a little about it, feel that there are many masters among the people.
Master Chen Zhouyi: I’m stuck at the fourth level. Is there anyone who can give me some advice?
24K Chun Ge clicked a +1, which is the incarnation of our classmate Zhan Mu, secretly observing everyone's IQ level.
Daily Love Lu Chao: Me too, it’s so difficult. I could figure out the first three levels, but I have absolutely no idea how to proceed with the fourth level.
Steady and Long-lasting: Fuxi's Innate Eight Trigrams, have you touched the bricks?
11111: What do you mean by touching the bricks? Aren’t they all floor tiles that can’t be moved?
AJ94j649: Bricks, the bricks next to the Tai Chi. If you look closely, the colors are a little different.
Brother 24K Pure Gold: Do you mean to press those densely packed little bricks using the idea of Bagua?
Steady flow: As mentioned above, it is like this. You press the eight hexagrams in a circle and rotate them. You have passed the fourth level, and the next level allows you to use it directly.
Lu Chao: How do I use it?
In reality, Zhan Mu suddenly widened his eyes and stared at those two words in shock. Why is this guy ignoring me and going solo now?
Zhan Mu privately chatted with Lu Chao, texting: "Aren't you supposed to not reveal the identity of a digital lifeform? I've been acting impulsively lately."
Lu Chao: Do you want me to take care of you?
Zhan Mu widened his eyes, thinking that this AI was about to devour its master. He felt strange and was about to attack.
Enthusiastic and knowledgeable netizens began to teach: After Fuxi's Eight Trigrams, there is King Wen's Eight Trigrams, which is the one with sixty-four hexagrams. Do you know how to recite and use it?
Steady flow: You have to memorize it all. In the fifth level, a random person will come to you to tell your fortune. You have to toss a coin 6 times and tell the fortune. If you make the person happy, you pass. If you make the person unhappy, the NPC will turn into a boss and kill you. It's that simple.
666666: Damn, you're the game planner, right?
The feeling of flying: I clicked it, awesome.
The God of Wealth came to my house: This is simple? How is it simple? The sixty-four hexagrams look like fucking source code. I can't remember them even if I learn them now!
666666: That's it? This is just the beginning. Do you know Zi Wei Dou Shu? Do you understand Da Liu Ren and Xiao Liu Ren? Do you know how to use the Ten Gods Combination?
24K Pure Gold Brother: Master, please take me! (crying loudly)
The feeling of flying: send me your horoscope.
My baby: Can the horoscope be randomly determined?
The feeling of flying: Just blur out your name. There are so many people with the same birth chart. If you really don't want to know, just check if your Earthly Branches are Chencheng, Choumo, Huagai Star, or if your Godly Evil Spirits have Taiji Guiren. Those who understand will understand.
666666: Let me tell you something simple. Send out your horoscope and see if any fortune tellers come to you. Generally, they say they will pay you a small fee. The more people come to you, the better your fate is. Why? Because it means you are destined to be rich. If you have no profit, why would anyone come to you? Hahahahahahahaha…
24K Pure Gold Brother: Beet, absolutely beet.
Lu Chao: There are many masters among the people, that’s really awesome.
Zhan Mu read for a while, then returned to real life. He opened a red book and prepared to study. Lu Chao hadn't shown up to harass him all day, which made Zhan Mu feel quite lonely.
However, Zhan Mu discovered that although he hated taking exams, he really liked to study professional knowledge, especially metaphysics, such as the I Ching, the Eight Diagrams, Liu Ren, physiognomy, etc. He was also very curious about listening to stories about the gods and ghosts.
Without Lu Chao knowing, and even without An Jing knowing, he and Bian Lu had an in-depth exchange about the "truth". They called it preparation for the next level of the game, but in reality, they were both poor and dissatisfied with their lives, so they drank and chatted happily.
Bian Lu: Did you really memorize 64 hexagrams?
Zhan Mu: There are patterns and patterns. I didn't memorize them by rote. One horizontal line represents one Yao, three horizontal lines represent one Gua, and the sum of two Guas is like that. I only needed to memorize the Xiantian Bagua first, and then I could use the Xutian Bagua to calculate directly.
Bian Lu: Damn, buddy, you really have a talent for this. I saw it in that Earthly Branches Candy Crush game.
Bian Lu: Hey, have you ever thought about setting up a stall or something in the future?
Zhan Mu: I’ve thought about it. But I guess I still need to learn a little bit of psychology, and also the art of speaking. The way I speak must be convincing.
Lawyer Bian: An Jing is keen on this. Don’t disbelieve it, rich people are more or less superstitious. But just take it as a suggestion and don’t get too involved.
Bian Lu: Doing good deeds is real, although retribution is slow to manifest. But it does exist. I've been with our teacher An for a long time now, and I've come to understand a lot of things. Some people don't do well in this life, or even have very bad experiences. That's probably because they committed sins in their previous life and are here to pay for their debts.
Zhan Mu: Damn, why do I feel like everything you say is weird?
Bian Lu: No, this theory has a bit of Buddhist causality. The so-called six realms of reincarnation are divided into: heaven, human, asura, animal, hungry ghost, and hell... I don't fully understand it, but I think it's very interesting. If you're curious, go ask AI yourself.
Zhan Mu: (Thumbs up)

We made plans to play games in the afternoon. Zhan Mu was bored at noon and wanted to go downstairs to have a bowl of snail noodles, but he was sad to find that the shop was closed and had not been open for several days.
Damn it, he discovered he had a talent: whenever he frequently ate at a restaurant, it would go bankrupt. Why? Because he had a discerning palate, and he always went there for good food and good value. Customers loved it, but the problem was that the restaurant owner probably wouldn't make any money, so the restaurant went bankrupt...
Zhan Mu returned to the rental house sadly, staring blankly at the pile of instant noodles in the room. It was so strange, he thought they were delicious in college, but since graduation, he felt that instant noodles tasted like shit, so disgusting!
Zhan Mu has been thinking recently that being a game anchor is really not easy, so he might as well be a food anchor. He didn't want to be a food anchor at first because he thought that others were very greedy, ate a lot and looked very tired, very full, and unhealthy.
But recently he discovered a new track, which is to cook it by himself and eat it by himself, and to zoom in the shooting angle. He doesn’t need to eat so much, as long as it is reasonable. The main thing is to make it look delicious to fans.
The main thing is that handsome guys are pleasing to the eye no matter what they do. Handsome guys who don’t touch the edge may be even more special, making people think: Humph, man, are you very arrogant? Look at me using money to break your heart~
Thinking of this, Zhan Mu suddenly felt that he had great potential!
He immediately jumped into action, thinking of his favorite dish: cola chicken wings! He immediately bought a pot and various condiments online, then rushed to the supermarket to buy chicken wings and cola.
So a new self-media person named "Zhanbao who loves to eat" appeared on a certain black Douyin and fan.b platform.
Zhan Mu fiddled with the game for half the afternoon, and even when Lu Chao called him to log in and play the game, he didn't hear him, mainly because he was annoyed.
But then I remembered that I hadn’t bought a lighting lamp yet, so I gave up and started logging in to brush the dungeon.
Desperate Game, the fourth level of the chaotic battle royale.
"Hurry up, brothers. After this time I can start developing my live broadcasting career." Zhan Mu looked at the time impatiently and put on an expression that said "my business is the most important."
"Captain Zhan, you really don't have a formal job?" Cheng Jiacheng was shocked.
"No, I don't want to go to work." Zhan Mu replied, then squatted down and touched the bricks on the ground.
"Team Zhan, what are you doing?" An Jing looked horrified.
"The dream of the exhibition team is to sleep on the floor today and become the boss tomorrow! To succeed, you must first go crazy and rush forward regardless of everything!" Lu Chao danced and acted like a funny man.
In reality, Lu Chao's eyes were sharp as he stared at Zhan Mu, who ignored him, gritting his teeth in hatred. He said he would support his son in his old age? But after buying an identity card worth 68,000 yuan, he no longer wanted to talk to anyone.
"Really? How do you feel it?" An Jing also squatted down and began to imitate Zhan Mu's observation of the floor tiles. The two of them squatted on the ground like giant crabs, crawling back and forth.
"A bunch of psychopaths." Bian Lu covered his face and tried to suppress his laughter.
Soon, under the guidance of the exhibition team, all eight trigrams of the fourth level were pressed, and the entire Bagua Tai Chi diagram was fully revealed, emitting a faint light under the operation of the system.
After the system announcement, there was no rotation of venues in the fifth level. A shadow of a little old man appeared directly on the black and white Tai Chi diagram. He coughed and said that he was seriously ill and would die soon. He wanted to ask five fellow Taoists to tell his fortune for him.
And, 3 coins appeared in front of each person.
"It's easy," Cheng Jiacheng said. "I just shook it and said, 'Hey, can you guys recite the corresponding meanings?'"
An Jing: "It's not that simple. He just shook his head and said that. Why would he make all five of us say it once? I don't think he's going to give us a subjective score."
Bian Lu: "I'm seriously ill and dying soon, and I want someone to calculate when I'll die? Don't you think that sounds a little weird?"
Lu Chao: "If someone really wants to die, why would he need fortune-telling? Doesn't fortune-telling just mean that he subconsciously still wants to struggle and doesn't want to die?" He curled his lips and smiled.
"Then I'll answer him first," Zhan Mu said. "Look at his attitude. Don't try to read his divination. Guess his emotions and say what makes him feel most comfortable."
"Captain Wushzhan, you are so cunning!" Bian Lu laughed.
Lu Chao laughed, "If someone like you really set up a fortune-telling stall, wouldn't you be the one to scam people out of everything? Hahahaha..."
An Jing snorted twice and glanced at Bian Lu, who immediately shut up and returned to normal. Bian Lu muttered something about jealousy, which made Cheng Jiacheng want to eat some melon seeds.
Zhan Mu ignored the idiot and started shaking the divination sticks. It was not known whether it was due to his metaphysical skills or if he did it on purpose, but he actually got a solution to the hexagram, which was Thunder and Water.
The four of them watched our team's performance. Zhan Mu took a deep breath, looked relieved at the NPC, and interpreted the hexagram: "Good, very good. The meaning of Lei Shui Jie is 'thunderstorms and ice and snow thaw.' It's auspicious, very auspicious. The thunder above and the water below represent the tremors and uneasiness in your heart, and the water represents danger. Putting it together, after the thunderstorm, the sky clears up, which means the sun is shining and danger has been turned into safety."
"This also suggests that your serious illness may be related to water, dampness and cold, kidney qi, thunder, and the word 'zhen', which is related to emotions. This indicates that you are feeling uneasy because of this illness, and you have liver and gallbladder problems, and heart problems."
Zhan Mu spoke very logically, and the remaining four brothers nodded repeatedly in amazement.
"So you need to adjust your mindset, relax, and get rid of the disease like pulling out a thread. Everything will be fine." Zhan Mu smiled with a warmth that gave people strength and determination.
"Awesome." Cheng Jiacheng sighed with emotion, and even felt that she had put her trust in the wrong person. When she met a man like Captain Zhan, she naturally had the mentality of "Just marry him."
——You should know that Chengcheng’s husband is studying medicine!
The so-called Yi and medicine are inseparable. Yi refers to the Book of Changes; medicine refers to medical skills. Surprisingly, the end of medical skills is also metaphysics.
Bian Lu nodded, and An Jing remained silent.
Only Lu Chao showed visible hatred towards Zhan Mu. He even sent a private message saying: Do you fucking like me or not... (Then he retracted it)
This was the second time that Lu Chao felt extremely frustrated by Zhan Dui, especially the damn stinky face he gave him when he looked down on him.
It’s so torturous, so hateful, I really want to “fuck” him to death.
The physical kind, um.
Zhan Mu didn't agree, or maybe he knew but didn't say it. He scratched his eyebrows and said, "I'm done, you guys come."
But that NPC had already shed tears of emotion!
You already have a preconceived notion about the exhibition team.
This dog man pretends to be a pig and eats the tiger.
