Chapter 208: Inhuman (16) (1st update + 2nd update + 2600 thunder 3rd update) [VIP]
Now, the affinity brought by [Welcome!] has reached 45 points.
Bai Jinshu's eyes swept across the barrage of comments. Yuan Shanming should be a very popular captain among the audience. Many viewers seemed to be very familiar with his team-leading habits. They said that Yuan Shanming was a person who never competed for limited ghost stories. Then among Yuan Shanming's previous team-leading ghost stories, there should be very few ghost stories like the Xuxu Photo Studio.
Although the Resurrection Armor buff seems to be very useful, combined with the performance in the barrage just now, Bai Jinshu has reason to believe that it was actually Yuan Shanming who brought them here to do this ghost story, not for this buff.
His goal was actually to obtain the additional item after the buff, which was that all artistic photos of models who passed the assessment would be hung in the studio for half a month.
Boss Sun from the teahouse told Yuan Shanming that he had the [Welcome!] buff on him. This buff should be a rare growth buff in S City. Bai Jinshu could almost imagine what would happen if the affinity of the person with the buff was increased.
The higher the affinity, the easier it is to attract the attention of ghost stories, the easier it is to trigger high-level ghost stories, and the easier it is to snatch high-level ghost stories from others.
At the same time, higher affinity will bring higher crisis. People with buffs will become Tang Monk's meat in the eyes of the undead, and the degree of danger will increase sharply.
Just by thinking this way, Bai Jinshu could immediately realize that the person who possessed this buff would only have one outcome.
That is, the affinity will become higher and higher uncontrollably, and the opportunities around him will be accompanied by dangers, pushing the buff holder into a field that ordinary people can never set foot in.
It is not difficult to hear from the conversation between Yuan Shanming and the irritable voice before entering the Novice Village that most ghost stories are intermediate. To complete a high-level ghost story requires not only the quality of the team members, but more importantly, whether high-level luck can be triggered.
Once an S-level ghost story is completed, the benefits to the team captains will be absolutely explosive.
From this perspective, it is not surprising that Yuan Shanming would do this.
Bai Jinshu glanced at everyone present thoughtfully and his eyes fell on Yuan Shanming.
I'm afraid that the moment Boss Sun said "Welcome!", Yuan Shanming had already thought of his next plan in his mind.
As long as he creates enough opportunities for Ersi to increase his affinity, he can use this buff to guide him to trigger or snatch S-level ghost stories, thereby raising the points earned from leading the team this time to a sufficiently considerable number.
At that time, the points that the remaining team members could bring to him were just a drizzle, and life and death actually had nothing to do with him. For example, in this [Xu Xu Photo Studio], Bai Jinshu was the key figure, and the others were just runners-up.
The resurrection armor buff is not that important. What Yuan Shanming really wants to achieve is to have his photo hung in the lobby so that he can continuously increase his affinity through the sight of others.
After all the artistic photos were hung, other teams in the studio began to leave.
Huai Jiamu suddenly smashed the entire photo studio. Not only the ghost stories in the studio were frightened, but Yuan Shanming, as the culprit who brought the bandits into the village, was quickly surrounded by several team leaders.
Taking advantage of this time, Bai Jinshu put aside the matter of the buff and looked at the newcomers who had already left the second space.
In Yuan Shanming's team, there is only one person who has not come out, and that is the male office worker.
When everyone was looking at the photos, the second to last person to leave the mirror was Lao Ma. He was paired with a boy from another team and kept thanking each other for helping him identify whether the body was real. When he heard them asking, Lao Ma said that he saw that office worker teammate in it, and the body in his mirror was fake, and he was on his way to the studio to find his real body.
At this point, the entire team is almost complete.
Xiao Tang stood in the crowd, his coat hanging loosely on his shoulders, and was pointing at his artistic photo with Huang Mao: "How did this photographer take this photo? My legs look so short from this angle."
The yellow-haired man flattered sincerely, "No, no, it looks extra long."
"It's all printed out..." Xiao Tang pinched his chin and thought, "If I beat up that photographer now, will he edit it to make it look better before putting it up?"
Huangmao: “Uh…”
The photographer has suffered enough, so let him go.
"Xiao Tang," Bai Jinshu came over and rescued Huangmao in time, "When did you get out?"
Why didn’t he see Xiao Tang coming out from the gap in the mirror?
"Just now," Xiao Tang replied nonchalantly, still staring at his artistic photo, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing." Bai Jinshu shook his head and pointed at Brother Liu in the team in the distance. "Did you see that person in there?"
"Which one?" Xiao Tang shifted his gaze, glanced at Brother Liu's right hand, which had been shattered, and casually moved away. "I don't know, I haven't seen him. What's wrong? Did this person offend you?"
"Not really..." Bai Jinshu chatted with her thoughtfully for a few words and left.
strangeness.
Is the girl that Brother Liu met really not Xiao Tang?
Just now, Brother Liu came out of the exit under the darkroom and looked at him several times, as if he was trying to avoid him, but he didn't say anything to Xiao Tang.
If the person he saw inside was Xiao Tang, he would not have behaved like this.
But according to what Brother Liu said, the way of directly catching the undead and beating them was too much of a scoundrel.
Could it be possible that among these thirty-five people, there is another girl as fierce as this one?
Maybe Xiao Tang has some secrets...
Bai Jinshu looked thoughtfully at her artistic photo above the hall. At this moment, the captains who had gathered together came over one after another.
The sun is about to set, and the City of the Dead is more dangerous at night than during the day. Each team has its own place to stay. In addition to the teahouse, many team leaders also have ghost stories suitable for temporary residence.
Everyone was rushing to get back to their place of residence before dark. All the people in the ghost story left the second space one after another. After quickly counting their number, everyone prepared to leave. Among the several team leaders, only Yuan Shanming and the one named Shi Pang were still talking together, and finally they came over with their team.
"Fatty Shi is a friend I knew before. He is also the leader of the team and is used to jumping to N Port," Yuan Shanming explained. "Their team came from N Port. They had an accident while traveling at night last night and lost two team members. It would be very dangerous if they don't have a fixed place to stay tonight, so they went back to the teahouse with us."
It turns out that the two missing people in their team died last night?
As soon as Yuan Shanming said this, the faces of many people in the team changed.
Although he had always heard him say that the City of the Dead was very dangerous at night, they had been in the teahouse for the previous two nights. Except for Xiaofei who accidentally triggered the [Scam], the others had spent two Christmas Eves together and had no idea of the dangers at night.
However, the loss of two members in Shi Pang's team suddenly brought a sense of crisis to everyone.
To know what kind of ability the team leader in the Novice Village has, just look at Yuan Shanming. Shi Pang, who can be friends with him, is probably not weak either. However, even under the leadership of such a leader, two people still died while traveling at night.
One can imagine how terrifying the City of the Dead is at night.
"Thank you for your help," said Fatty Shi, whose Mandarin was not standard and sounded like a dialect. "My name is Shi Pang, Pang Pang. You can just call me Shi Pang or Captain Shi. Our two teams will take care of each other from now on. We can be considered temporary teammates after we get to know each other."
The eight team members following Shi Pang were five men and three women. Some of them were probably following Bai Jinshu. They seemed to be very friendly with Xiaofei and Xiaoyang. They introduced themselves briefly.
Shi Pang's team is quite special. Many team members knew each other before they died. One of the girls was a pair of sisters with a three-year age difference. They both died in a car accident. Three of the boys were buddies who had known each other for many years. They all died in the same high-altitude falling object accident. The remaining one man and one woman were said to be in a love triangle, but one of the three died last night, leaving only these two people.
The sun was about to set, and the other teams in the studio left the range of the ghost story. Yuan Shanming glanced at the sky and said, "It's getting late. Let's talk while we walk. The City of the Dead is very dangerous at night. Even if you have resurrection armor, I can't guarantee that there won't be casualties walking at night."
When everyone heard this, they quickly followed his footsteps.
Shi Pang was worried and asked a few questions: "By the way, Yuan Shanming, do you still have the Soul-Returning Incense?"
"Not much left," Yuan Shanming answered truthfully, "but luckily you lost two people, so the remaining quantity is enough for three people to use one, but there is no margin for error when triggering it, so it must succeed in one go."
"Well, that's no problem," Shi Pang let out a long sigh, "My team has been in the Novice Village for eight or nine days. If nothing else, there will be no mistakes in triggering the ghost story."
The photo studio was not close to the triggering position of the teahouse, and the group of people hurried and finally arrived under the locust tree before the triggering time ended.
Shi Pang's team divided up the last three soul-returning incense sticks left by Yuan Shanming and successfully entered the ghost story.
At this point, the storyteller in the teahouse had just finished his story. Guests were walking out of the teahouse in groups of three or four, and for a moment, all the newlyweds who had just returned from the modern city were dazed by time.
But even more confusing things are yet to come.
"Captain Shi..." the first of the three brothers with a buzz cut whispered, "Did we trigger it wrongly? Why are these undead spirits in the ghost story staring at us?"
"Hiss..." Shi Pang was also puzzled. "I don't know what they are looking at. I have been to the teahouse before, but I have never encountered a situation like this."
"Old Sun," Yuan Shanming walked over from behind, patted Boss Sun on the shoulder, and whispered, "This is a friend of mine, from another district, not familiar with S City, and there is no time to find another place, so I'm staying here with you."
"His men have less than ten days left to explore. If they don't take up the quota for completing the strange stories here, they will go out at 2:30 every afternoon. Do you think that's okay?"
"Okay, okay," Boss Sun nodded, "but if there are too many people, I won't have enough room, so we'll have to squeeze in."
"No problem, no problem," Shi Pang heard this and quickly put aside the doubts in his mind and moved closer. "We will just stay here every night to avoid the night in S City and won't cause any trouble to you, boss."
After some discussion, Boss Sun quickly sent the servant to clean up the room.
The guest rooms are fixed. Bai Jinshu said that before, the ten of them were divided equally between men and women, with one double room and one triple room. Now with the addition of Shi Pang's team, the four rooms were changed into two four-person rooms and two five-person rooms.
It suddenly became crowded.
But fortunately, no one cares much.
The servant tidied up the empty room, and the two teams sat down at two tables in the corner of the hall. Yuan Shanming counted the people in his team before speaking: "Today is the second day of entering the City of the Dead. I think everyone has a good idea of how to complete the ghost story and how to get a high rating."
"I have led many teams in the Novice Village. The first one or two days are when everyone is close to each other, and that's when the team acts most collectively. When entering the Novice Village, everyone is unfamiliar with the environment, so collective action is relatively safer. In addition, the ghost stories that have been screened by the team leader are also safer."
He changed his tone and said, "However, in a team, the abilities and ideas of newcomers are bound to differ and conflict with each other, so in the middle and late stages, I usually prefer to provide the weird stories myself, and then you can choose according to your own abilities, and I will provide you with advice."
Finally it has come to this.
Bai Jinshu was sitting at the round table and blinked in anticipation.
The team in the investment bank's novice village is originally different from the team in the foundation.
The interests of the members of the exploration team in the Foundation are highly overlapping. They only need to complete the exploration of the rules. Everyone has the same goals and the same ratings.
In the novice village of the investment bank, everyone can trigger different strange stories, and different strange stories will lead to different ratings and different crises. In this case, forming a team to explore according to the initial allocation of the system is actually an extremely inefficient way.
There will always be strong and weak people in a team. If they must act together, then in order to take care of the weak, the strong must also participate in low-level ghost stories and occupy their few ghost story slots. And if they are to follow the standards of the strong, then in some more dangerous ghost stories, the weak are very likely to lose their lives.
The points of the team leader are highly linked to the survival rate and completion score of the team members. When the income of high-level ghost stories is several times that of medium and low levels, any captain who is not stupid will find that encouraging strong and weak team members to separate is a more cost-effective option.
Only in this way can the weaker team members not hold back the stronger team members, and the choices made by the stronger team members will not lead to the death of the weaker team members.
In the middle and late stages of the Novice Village, team members will definitely not act as a unit of the initial division, but instead form their own team, choosing between strong and strong, weak and weak.
Yuan Shanming just put his words out in the open, peeling off the last veil between the team members and exposing the gap in strength to everyone, so that everyone would take the initiative to separate in advance.
He also kept his face flawless. Although he had already planned to adopt the strategy of protecting one while keeping many and focusing on training Ersi, he still looked like he was thinking about everyone.
"By now, you've basically seen how to trigger the ghost stories in the Novice Village," he said. "If you divide them by difficulty, they can be divided into four categories. The first category is the low-level ghost stories you see when you exit the subway station. They will actively come to newcomers and try to occupy their ghost story slots. You don't need to trigger these ghost stories yourself, they will come to you on their own. The disadvantage is that their levels are generally very low. Unless you really don't have the ability to pass the level and feel that you can't survive the intermediate ghost stories, I don't recommend you to do these ghost stories."
"The second type is like Xuxu Photo Studio," everyone at the round table listened carefully, "it requires certain props from the ghost story itself to trigger it. This type of prop is generally not binding and can be snatched. Once obtained, it must be kept well. The advantage is that the level of this type of ghost story is generally above C, but the disadvantage is that the triggering items of this type of ghost story are extremely easy to cause disputes. Until the last moment, no one can be sure that they can keep the triggering item in their hands."
"So Brother Yuan, our application form is this kind of item?" Xiao Fei drew inferences from one example.
"Yes, the application form is the trigger issued by Xuxu Photo Studio, so you know that it's not just the newcomers who will join in the fight, the team leader will also join in the dispute," Yuan Shanming tapped the table, "Although I suggest you participate in this kind of weird talk, my bigger advice is not to spread the information that you have the trigger. Once you get the trigger, keep it properly."
The team members nodded seriously.
"The third category is the weird stories in teahouses," Yuan Shanming continued. "This type of weird story also requires a trigger, but the trigger is not provided by the weird story itself. Instead, it needs to be obtained through other channels. The methods and channels for obtaining it have different levels of difficulty. Generally, it depends on the level and difficulty of the weird story. For this type of weird story, it is not enough to just get the trigger. It also requires some special behaviors when using the trigger, and has the power of autonomous choice, that is, the weird story itself can refuse to be triggered by you."
"Like the soul-returning incense?" Xiao Tang asked, holding his chin.
"Yes," Yuan Shanming nodded, "Returning Soul Incense is a very difficult medicinal material to obtain. The difficulty lies in how to find the channel and how to pay the equivalent exchange item that the seller wants to obtain. In addition, apart from triggering the teahouse, its scope of application is very limited, so most captains will not make an effort to get it."
"We have talked about the first three categories. The fourth category must be the Blood Shadow, right?" Bai Jinshu said, half supporting his forehead.
"The fourth type is the weird stories that require long triggering behaviors," Yuan Shanming nodded and continued to explain, "This type of weird story can take from one day to more than ten days to trigger. The longer the triggering time, the more complex the triggering behavior, the more stringent the triggering conditions, and the higher the level of the weird story. And this type of weird story has no owner, which means it can be snatched away by anyone. It's easy to get nothing in return, and in the end you'll just give someone a weird story for nothing."
He spread his hands and said, "There's actually no need to talk about this kind of thing, because generally speaking, the only ones who understand how to trigger various long-triggering behavior weird stories are the captains in the Novice Village. Those of us who have been in the Novice Village for a long time will summarize some triggering tables for advanced weird stories, many of which require very strict requirements for triggering personnel, triggering behavior, triggering weather, and triggering mandatory conditions. All of these are indispensable. This is also the reason why there are not many captains who specialize in long-triggering weird stories, because there are very few situations that can meet all the strict conditions."
"Blood Shadow isn't that troublesome," he thought for a moment. "This strange story is mainly time-consuming, and the triggering location is in S City, where there are many teams. The risk of being intercepted in the middle is very high. In fact, the conditions of the strange story itself are not harsh."
Yuan Shanming mentioned casually: "The really troublesome ghost stories, such as the [Sea Beast] in Port N, are triggered by three consecutive thunderstorms, the water level of the reservoir in the port rises by more than four centimeters, and on the night when the water level rises by more than four centimeters, at least three fishing boats carrying special flags go out to sea, and each fishing boat has no less than eight crew members. At the same time, ninety-eight people died on the shore, half of them men and half women. Finally, a man and a woman who were only three months apart in age drank a mouthful of sea water at the same time at the beach, triggering the prerequisite ghost story [Port of Raging Waves] for [Sea Beast]. After completing this ghost story and obtaining the limited buff, [Sea Beast] can be officially triggered."
Just listening to this series of descriptions, everyone's heads were already dizzy.
"Among them, there were three consecutive thunderstorms with lightning and lightning, and the water level of the reservoir in the port rose by more than four centimeters," Yuan Shanming spread his hands, "Most teams will not encounter such weather."
“This is also the trigger for the previous ghost story…?” The corner of the yellow-haired man’s mouth twitched.
"Yes, this is the prerequisite strange story, a limited strange story and limited buff named after Port N [Raging Waves Port]. Each area will have several area-limited buffs, and a strange story and buff named after the area. Completing this strange story named after the area is the prerequisite for triggering the super S-level super-large strange story in the area," Yuan Shanming nodded in affirmation, "The triggering process of [Sea Beast] is even more complicated."
"It's so complicated... This ghost story must be an S-level one, right?" Xiao Yang murmured.
"Super S-level," Yuan Shanming shook his head. "N Port is close to the sea, and the level of ghost stories there is very extreme. There are many low-end ghost stories there, but all the super S-level ghost stories, except for one that must be in each area, are basically all within the scope of N Port. Generally speaking, the teams heading to N Port only intend to trigger some marginal S-level ghost stories, and do not touch this kind of super S-level ghost stories."
"Why?" Xiao Tang asked curiously.
"You can tell from the name," Yuan Shanming explained in detail, "Super S-level, super large, strange talk. This type of strange talk is higher than the regular S-level strange talk, and the scope is very large, it is very likely to cover the entire N Port. During the known existence of the Novice Village, the largest strange talk that has appeared in N Port covered half of the Novice Village, involving at least 60% of the teams that were in action at the time, causing the largest generation gap of veterans in history. A large number of captains were triggered by this strange talk, which led to the death of the newcomers in the team. After leading the team, the score was not enough to pay for their life extension, so they died directly."
Everyone at the round table gasped.
"So normally, no one would trigger a super S-level weird talk," Yuan Shanming said, "and once someone intends to trigger this kind of weird talk, they will definitely gather enough participants in some way, and notify all teams that may not want to participate in advance to avoid it, make the above preparations, and finally start to trigger it."
"As far as I know... the last rookie who successfully triggered the Super S-level super ghost story and survived is now a senior executive of the investment bank. All the captains who participated in that triggering have also retired and promoted to senior executives, and no longer have to struggle in the Novice Village."
"It is precisely because all those who have successfully triggered it have passed away, and those who have failed to trigger it have died, that the process of Super S-level super ghost stories is almost discontinuous, and the mortality rate is extremely high if you participate," Yuan Shanming said with a hint of helplessness on his face. "If you hear about this kind of news, you can come and inform me, but I don't recommend you to participate. I myself need to consider before deciding whether to join."
Everyone at the round table shook their heads like rattles.
Among them, Xiao Fei was the most straightforward: "No, Brother Yuan, I know myself well, I am not the type to participate in this kind of weird talk."
"If I really had to go, I would be one of the ninety-eight corpses on the shore."
"Well... probably this is the type of ghost story," after Yuan Shanming finished talking about the super S-type super ghost story, the newcomers at the round table all showed resistance on their faces, "Don't worry too much. Since I took over the team, I have only seen a super S-type super ghost story triggered once, and it is not so easy to encounter. Next, I will talk about several special ghost stories."
Yuan Shanming also gave three examples of the types of ghost stories.
"The first type is something like [Porcelain Bumping]," he looked at Xiao Fei meaningfully, "It doesn't matter if you don't know. You just need to know that this type of strange story takes a very short time to complete after it is triggered, basically between a few hours and more than ten hours. Generally speaking, the level is not high, and it is considered a low- to medium-level strange story."
"The second type is the long-term ghost stories like the Teahouse. The time span is more than ten days. The ghost stories are divided into several parts. It is not mandatory to trigger all of them. Most of them are at the intermediate level."
"There is also a third type, like [Xu Xu Photo Studio]. The duration is random, but once it is triggered, you will only get a buff, and it does not occupy the quota for completing the ghost story. There is no level to distinguish and judge, so you can only judge based on the team leader's experience."
"There's nothing much to say about the first two. The last one is more popular because it doesn't take up completion slots. Different buffs will also have different benefits. You can do what you can after you find them. It's best to participate in the triggering."
Everyone nodded seriously.
After Yuan Shanming's science lecture, the sky had transitioned from the slightly yellow sunset glow to night. He looked at the time and urged everyone to go to bed first. Early tomorrow morning, those who had ideas could come to him to get a list of ghost stories in S City and choose from them, or they could wait until 2:30 in the afternoon to continue to listen to the ghost stories in the teahouse.
It was indeed getting late, and everyone put away the paper and pens or mobile phones they were using to take notes, and prepared to go back to their rooms.
Behind them, Shi Pang's team also ended the meeting, and everyone walked towards the guest rooms in twos and threes.
"Ersi, wait a moment," Yuan Shanming looked up and stopped Bai Jinshu who was about to leave, "I have a question for you, wait a moment."
Bai Jinshu stood still, raised his eyebrows slightly in his heart, but his expression was the same as usual: "Okay, Brother Yuan, just tell me if you have any questions."
Yuan Shanming waited until everyone had left before he stood up and pushed Bai Jinshu back onto the stool. Just as he was about to say something, he caught a glimpse of the voice standing behind Bai Jinshu, and the words he said took a detour: "Ersi, what... did you bring out?"
Bai Jinshu: "Hmm?"
Didn’t Yuan Shanming want to talk to him about “Welcome!”?
So you came to ask Huai Jiamu?
He looked at Yuan Shanming in confusion, but answered truthfully: "I don't know, but he seemed to take the identity of the bride I got from the ghost story seriously, so he followed me out of the ghost story."
Is this not considered a lie?
After all, he himself didn't know how the evil god came out, so how could the audience in the barrage know?
Bai Jinshu glanced at the screen, and sure enough, no one noticed that he was talking nonsense.
"Is that so..." Yuan Shanming had a look of toothache on his face, "Then why didn't you ask..."
He glanced at Huai Jiamu suggestively: "Ask him what he wants to do?"
"I really don't know what to do. I'm afraid he'll find out what's wrong. I can only pretend to be the bride in the story and hope he doesn't find out that he recognized the wrong person. I don't dare to ask in this situation," Bai Jinshu decisively said, "Brother Yuan, you are the team leader. Have you ever encountered this situation before? How about you ask for me?"
"Hiss..." Yuan Shanming's face wrinkled, "I haven't encountered this either. You... If you don't dare to ask, I can't ask either."
Ersi is still a fox bride, what is he, just a passerby?
After all, the great god's lethality had been fully demonstrated in the unfortunate Xuxu Photo Studio.
Yuan Shanming's humility was also fully demonstrated at this time.
"Then you just need to hold on for the next twelve days and leave the Novice Village, and you'll be fine. Let's change the subject," he changed the subject decisively, "Welcome to your S City limited buff. How much affinity has it reached now?"
"Forty-five," Bai Jinshu smoothly changed the subject with him, "Brother Yuan, is there an upper limit to this value?"
"You've already stacked it to 45, much faster than I thought," Yuan Shanming was surprised for a moment, "There is no upper limit to the affinity of Welcome, or in other words, no one has reached the upper limit of this buff within 14 days. The highest known affinity stack is 888. The newcomer with the buff set off a fighting frenzy in the entire Novice Village. The aftermath of the frenzy dissipated several months after he left the Novice Village."
"Eight hundred and eighty-eight..." Bai Jinshu repeated, "What will happen if it reaches this value?"
"It's very scary," Yuan Shanming said truthfully, "You will become the target of all ghost stories. Wherever you go, all ghost stories will riot. I don't recommend you to stack it that high. It's enough to have an affinity of more than 300. You can 100% snatch and trigger most of the S ghost stories in the Novice Village. More than 800 is too dangerous."
"Hmm..." Bai Jinshu neither agreed nor objected, but raised his eyebrows noncommittally, "So, Brother Yuan, you came to keep me this time, is there any special strange story you want to snatch?"
"It's easy to talk to smart people," Yuan Shanming admitted readily, "I got the news that someone in Area W is triggering an S-level ghost story, and they are preparing the triggering item recently."
"This strange story has a time limit for triggering. There are still two days before it is officially triggered." He paused, "You are welcome. Your future is limitless. I will help you improve your rating level. My points will be enough for me to live longer. It is a win-win situation for us."
"Before you go to snatch this strange story, I will try my best to provide you with more strange stories that only add buffs and do not take up quotas, and you work hard to increase your affinity to more than 150 to increase your success rate. How about that?"
"Okay," Bai Jinshu nodded, "Thank you, Brother Yuan."
"I should thank you," Yuan Shanming said with a complicated expression, "A newcomer like you who is both talented and lucky is destined to be promoted to a senior team member soon after leaving the Novice Village. If you can still remember the captain who helped you in the Novice Village, I won't ask too much from you. It would be great if you could just lower my interest rate a bit."
"Okay, it's getting late, go to bed quickly," Yuan Shanming glanced at Shi Pang who was obviously waiting for him not far away, and said, "Tomorrow morning, you can join Shi Pang's team. They are going to brush a very special buff that is very suitable for you."
Bai Jinshu nodded. Seeing that the two had other things to say, he did not disturb them any further and went upstairs back to the guest room of the teahouse.
1. A dreamless night.
When I woke up the next day, most of the newcomers were already up and were gathered together enthusiastically studying the list given by Yuan Shanming.
Many of the newcomers have already formed teams. Xiao Tao, Li Zi and Xiao Yang are preparing to explore a C-level ghost story together. Yuan Shanming is reminding them of the precautions of the ghost story.
The remaining Lao Ma also seemed to want to join a team, but no one was willing to be in the same team with a middle-aged man in his forties, which made him feel quite awkward being alone.
The same situation happened to Nian Yu. It seemed as if these two people were deliberately ignored by the entire team.
Of the remaining few people, the office worker and the girl in a holiday dress were going to stay and finish the teahouse's ghost stories for the day, and were randomly checking each other's fifty-eight stories.
Xiao Tang was not idle either. In just one night, she had already linked arms with the pair of sisters in Shi Pang's team: "What buffs are you going to get in the morning? Take me with you."
"Okay," the older sister looked very gentle, "but this ghost story may have a high mortality rate. Are you not afraid, Xiao Tang? If not, I will tell Captain Shi."
"I'm not afraid," Xiao Tang laughed, "The ghost stories are afraid of me, right? Right, Huangmao!"
Huang Mao stood beside the three girls and served them tea and water: "Yes, Sister Xiao Tang."
"Look." Xiao Tang raised his eyebrows.
"Then I'll go and tell them." The younger sister went to find Shi Pang.
Seeing Bai Jinshu talking to the big monster, Xiao Fei waved his hand and said, "Brother Er, where are you going today?"
"Me?" Bai Jinshu looked at him in surprise. "I made an agreement with Captain Shi yesterday that I would go with them to get the buff. You won't have any other weird conversations with Xiao Yang and the others?"
"No," Xiao Fei thought for a moment and gritted his teeth, "Brother Er, I want to take this buff with you."
Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. He has been with Er Si these days, which is why he has been able to obtain such high live broadcast data. Once he chooses to leave Er Si and join other teams, his data will definitely drop drastically.
If he needs to get a rating, he has no choice but to follow Ersi.
Bai Jinshu looked Xiaofei up and down, and he had an accurate understanding of his own positioning.
It is impossible for him to save this kid's life forever, but life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in the hands of God. It is his own choice, and there is nothing he can do to persuade him.
Bai Jinshu nodded indifferently.
Xiao Tang hugged the elder sister's shoulders and said coquettishly: "Since you have decided to go together, tell me what buffs and weird stories you are going to get?"
