Chapter 3 Phoenix God (2)
◎The live broadcast room received 1000 reward points◎
Gu Qiufeng's eyes were fixed on the little wooden figure in his hand.
However, the wooden man did not move at this time, as if it was just an illusion.
Gu Qiufeng stared at it for a while and found that the little thing was pretending to be serious. It was pretending to be dead without moving at all.
"elder brother!"
A voice suddenly came out from the door, and Gu Qiufeng almost threw the wooden figure in his hand out.
There was a sudden chorus of screams outside: "Hey, brother, don't rush to beat me up, it's me..."
Gu Qiufeng was about to withdraw his hand when he realized that the person who came was actually the guy with glasses. He said helplessly, "Don't make a sudden sound in such a scary copy."
"Is there anything I can help you with?" Gu Qiufeng calmly put the wooden figure into his suit pocket.
He felt as if the little thing in his hand was trembling.
It's probably an illusion.
Gu Qiufeng felt that he should be the one who was afraid of it.
The voice of the guy with glasses pulled Gu Qiufeng back to his senses. He touched his neck and said with a wry smile, "I'm just scared. My room is empty, with only a bed, but I have to face the mirror when I sit on the bed. Looking at myself in the mirror always feels a little creepy, so I walked around the yard and found you here, brother, so I wanted to talk to you."
Gu Qiufeng: "Name."
"Are you talking about me?" The boy with glasses looked flattered and said quickly, "My name is Yu Shang!"
"My name is Gu Qiufeng." Gu Qiufeng said.
Yu Shang said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry to have troubled Brother Gu. I really want to thank Brother Gu for helping me when we were at the entrance of the village before."
"It's okay." Gu Qiufeng said, thinking of the wooden man, so he asked tentatively, "Besides the mirror, is there anything else strange in your house?"
"Yes!" Yu Shang said, "I had just pulled all-nighters to finish a project before entering the game, and now I was so sleepy that I planned to take a nap on the bed. Although the mirror was scary, I thought it was impossible to... do that in broad daylight, but... "He said with horror, "As soon as I lay on the bed, I was bumped. When I got up, I found a weird little puppet lying on my bed."
That's why Yu Shang didn't dare to stay any longer and quickly found Gu Qiufeng so that they could talk together.
Gu Qiufeng said "hmm" and thought to himself that this little thing was sold in bulk and everyone had one.
Seeing that Yu Shang was indeed not very courageous, he did not tell him about his abnormality, but changed the subject: "Are you working on a project? And you're working all night, aren't you a programmer?"
Yu Shang gave him a thumbs up: "Brother Gu is smart."
Gu Qiufeng glanced at the top of his head subtly: "Then you have quite a lot of hair."
Yu Shang: “…”
For a moment, I wasn’t sure if Brother Gu was really praising him for having thick hair.
Yu Shang decided to skip this fatal topic. He looked at Gu Qiufeng's appearance and figure with envy and said, "Brother Gu, what did you do before you entered the game? You look like a male model."
"Have you ever seen a male model wearing a suit to work? I'm called a social animal." Gu Qiufeng said, "Agent, you've heard of it, right?"
Yu Shang: "Damn, you're awesome, Brother Gu. You must know a lot of celebrities, right?"
Gu Qiufeng: "Yes, do you have a favorite star?"
Yu Shang's eyes sparkled: "Brother, do you know Xie Xin who won the Best Actor award this year? He is my idol."
"Xie Xin." Gu Qiufeng's expression suddenly became subtle.
Not only did he know him, he had a big fight with this bastard a few days ago.
I don’t know who has tricked Xie Xin into accepting the endorsement of another game from the manufacturer of “Fatal Fall”.
Gu Qiufeng vaguely felt that there was something fishy going on, but before he could figure it out and tell Xie Xin, he had already entered "Fatal Fall".
Gu Qiufeng came back to his senses and said with a smile: "When we return to reality, I will ask Xie Xin to sign for you."
"Thank you, Brother Gu!" Yu Shang was overjoyed.
Suddenly, a voice came from outside: "Come out to eat."
It’s the village chief’s.
Gu Qiufeng said, "Let's go, complete the task well, and when the game is out, go find Xie Xin to ask for his autograph."
*
When we arrived at the village chief's house, the sky outside was already filled with dark purple mist.
The eight players gathered together again.
The village chief prepared a large round table for them with many dishes on it. He said a few more lines and then left the room. Before leaving, he also told the players to eat well.
"Where is the village chief? I feel so scared when he is not around. I always feel like he is secretly watching us." Yu Shang whispered to Gu Qiufeng next to him.
Gu Qiufeng nodded seriously: "Yes, keep an eye on us while we eat."
Yu Shang: “…”
The chicken leg in my mouth suddenly didn’t taste as good anymore.
Yu Shang still felt a little creepy. He looked left and right and suddenly exclaimed “Fuck”.
"What's wrong?" Gu Qiufeng asked.
Yu Shang lowered his voice and said, "At the door, the village chief was staring at us. I just saw his eyes."
Gu Qiufeng nodded calmly, then took a sip of porridge and commented: "See, he is just eating us."
"A beauty that is a feast to the eyes." Gu Qiufeng commented on himself.
All the guests at the table stopped eating because of Gu Qiufeng's analogy: "..."
The culprit was still eating happily, completely unaware.
Perhaps because he was caught, or perhaps because he saw that most of the guests were no longer eating, the village chief opened the door and walked in, saying, "Is everyone full?"
Gu Qiufeng: "Actually not yet..."
Yu Shang covered his mouth.
The village chief smiled and said, "Actually, I'm here to remind you of something. You should have noticed some wooden figures in your room, right? That's the custom in our village. The bride's relatives and friends need to offer these wooden figures seven days before the wedding, and then present them to the Phoenix God at the wedding."
Yu Shang loosened his hands and opened his mouth wide.
The veteran players all had thoughtful expressions on their faces.
Gu Qiufeng reached into his pocket and touched the head of the wooden man.
He lowered his eyes and went over the village chief's words again in his mind.
This should be the main line that these players should take.
After the village chief finished speaking, he began to "kindly" ask the players to go back to their houses and sleep.
"Don't run around at night, just sleep, and don't open your eyes if you hear anything." Yu Bo specifically instructed Gu Qiufeng before leaving.
Gu Qiufeng didn't quite understand why Yu Bo had to remind him alone: "."
Does he look like someone who would go pick a fight with ghosts in the middle of the night?
Thinking of this, when Gu Qiufeng passed by the village chief, the village chief glared at him blatantly.
Gu Qiufeng:?
Why are you glaring at him? Isn't he tasty enough to eat with rice?
*
After dinner, Yu Shang felt sick when he thought of the big mirror facing the bed in his room and a little wooden man that seemed to be closely related to the main plot but was extremely weird for some reason. He wanted to hug Gu Qiufeng's thighs and ask him to live with him.
Gu Qiufeng refused, "It makes sense for him to assign a room to each of us. What if you don't sleep in your room and he comes to look for you and finds you're not there, what do you think will happen?"
Yu Shang shut up.
After Gu Qiufeng returned to the room, he put the little man that he had been carrying in his pocket back on the table.
He decided not to be bothered by the overall environment of the house, so he didn't even turn on the lights and went to sleep on the bed with his clothes on.
[Alas, the handsome guy’s live broadcast room has gone down again. I beg him to stop confusing the operation. I really don’t want him to die because he is so handsome.]
[Speaking of which, the new female broadcaster next door is very popular. She should have some reward points now. Her broadcaster was already in the top ten of the newcomer list at the beginning. She has a promising future.]
[She is lucky to meet Yu Bo who often visits the tavern. It just so happens that they are recruiting new members. With Yu Bo as her guide, she will definitely earn a lot of points and popularity.]
[Oh my god, that wooden man seems to have moved. I guessed that this instance has something to do with the wooden man.]
[Wait, that’s not necessarily the case… Look at what that little guy is doing…]
Gu Qiufeng heard the noise.
The sound of wood hitting wood makes a dull sound, hitting people's nerves again and again.
Gu Qiufeng originally had no intention of caring.
But the sound became more and more rapid, and finally there was a crisp sound - something hit the floor.
Gu Qiufeng: “…”
Could that little thing have hurt itself?
After all, it is his main prop, so Gu Qiufeng has to go and see if it is still intact.
He got up from the bed and walked to the wooden man in the moonlight.
The windows of the old-style house were made of frosted glass and covered with a layer of old newspapers, which made the moonlight that came in seem gloomy and cold, as if it was covered by something.
The little wooden man on the floor clumsily picked himself up and began to move.
Its limbs made crisp hitting sounds as they moved.
The facial features of the little man looked even more eerie in the night, as if a human-shaped smiling face was mounted on a piece of wood.
The little man with blurred features but distinct joints moved stiffly under the pale moonlight, walking step by step towards Gu Qiufeng's bed.
Everything was quiet in the middle of the night, except for the occasional sound of birds flapping their wings in the trees in the yard.
The negative energy in the house seemed to have reached its peak at this moment. The cold breath was almost eager to pour into people's mouths and noses and drown them.
There was a hole in the newspaper, and some light cast a trace of hoarfrost on the floor.
The little man walked into the light, and Gu Qiufeng found that it suddenly stopped moving.
Had I been discovered?
Before he had time to verify his idea, Gu Qiufeng suddenly saw the little man standing on the floor reflected by the moonlight and raised his hand again.
Then, he performed a set of Tai Chi in one breath and smoothly.
Gu Qiufeng: “……?”
At this moment, a familiar mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his ears.
[The live broadcast room received 1000 reward points, and "I love cute things" posted a message: More wooden man shots, I love to see them]
[It is detected that the player's points have reached 1000, unlocking the mall function, please check]
