Chapter 463 The Real World (1st + 2nd) [VIP]
The experiment of whether "Love the house and love the dog" is true ended with Huai Jiamu's stiff face: "No."
"Oh..." Bai Jinshu touched his chin, "Forget it then."
If there is no such thing, then there is no need to experiment.
"Why are you asking this? What theory do you want to test?" Huai Jiamu's voice was stiff.
"Love the house and love the dog," Bai Jinshu answered as if it was a matter of course. "I just talked about this topic with Zhang Nuoke. He thinks there is something wrong with my view on love, so I want to experiment to see if there is any problem."
What Zhang Nuoke meant was that he was abnormal, which was reasonable, as he was not normal to begin with.
Whether it was Dermis or him, nothing was normal.
And Huai Jiamu didn't give him the chance to love his family as well.
That's why he asked Huai Jiamu if he had any brothers or sisters. He wanted to experiment whether someone like him who didn't make many friends would develop a liking for his brothers and sisters just because they liked him.
But since there is no such thing, forget it.
Zhang Nuoke seems to be a normal person, so his suggestions are also normal for reference. Bai Jinshu wrote down the concept of "love the house and love the dog". By the way, he plans to try it again if he has the chance in the future. If he has any questions, he can also ask him.
After all, people who know each other in other identities don’t seem suitable to ask such questions, and “Bai Jinshu” is not suitable either. In comparison, Dermis, who is in love, is perfect.
He seems to be love-savvy enough and has a stable partner, but he reveals in a few words that he has no idea what love is. After witnessing the story between Schlenkmade and Zhang Nuoke, he developed an inquisitive mindset about this kind of relationship, and it is reasonable to ask questions to an eyewitness.
Moreover, Zhang Nuoke is the creator of Slenkmade, so his relationship with the foundation or all the organizations in the space should also develop into a cooperative relationship. This world originally evolved from a holographic game, and Zhang Nuoke is the game producer. He does not exclude players, nor does he exclude the subsequent development of the foundation. It is easy to come in and ask him questions.
Bai Jinshu looked up at Zhang Nuoke who was in the wind and snow. The other party was probably busy transforming the Schlenkmade, which lacked a basic framework, from a broken-down car on the roadside to one that could move stumblingly. He probably didn't have the energy to answer his questions for the time being.
"What kind of relationship can he have?" Huai Jiamu coughed lightly and looked relieved. "He's already 36 years old and has never had a girlfriend. What's the point of asking him?"
Bai Jinshu: "Hmm..."
He silently glanced at Huai Jiamu, whose left eye said "relieved" and his right eye said "stingy", "How do you know that Zhang Nuoke has never had a girlfriend?
He actually felt that what Zhang Nuoke said made sense, and it seemed that he was quite good at falling in love.
But there was no point in arguing about this, so Bai Jinshu readily agreed: "Let's talk about it later."
Zhang Nuoke seems to be a good person to communicate with. We’ll talk about it later.
Huai Jiamu followed him and glanced at Zhang Nuoke, lowering his voice: "If you want to learn this, why don't we..."
"We can buy some more octopus ornaments," Bai Jinshu stroked his chin, thoughtfully, "I think the pendant you stayed with last time is quite cute. I think I love the whole thing, so I'll try to cultivate some feelings."
Huai Jiamu:?
*
"so……"
Old Wu sat on the sofa, looking at his artist leaning on a giant octopus pillow, holding an octopus phone case, and wearing an octopus T-shirt. He felt that he had never been so confused: "You mean these octopuses are the local specialties you brought back after going out this time?"
He pushed the door open and thought he had walked into the wrong door!
"That's about right," Bai Jinshu leaned against the pillow and pulled the pendant on his phone, "Don't you think it's cute?"
It does seem to be more pleasing to the eye than other plush pendants. This is probably a kind of love for the person and the love for the dog, which is reasonable.
"What's so cute about it?" Old Wu questioned his life. "What kind of specialty is octopus peripherals? Where have you been for the past ten days? R'lyeh?"
"Cuteness is..." Bai Jinshu ignored the second question and turned the octopus pendant over to show him, "You can turn it over. This side is happy, and this side is unhappy."
Old Wu: "Thank you. Please stay unhappy. This is more in line with my mood."
And for some reason, this unhappy side always seemed familiar to him.
"What you want," a cold voice sounded beside him, "Okay, you can go now."
Old Wu: ...
He just said he was unhappy!
It didn't even take him more than five minutes from the time he walked in to the time he sat down, and now he's being kicked out!
Bai Jinshu, who are you looking for?
He really treats this place as his own home. Is his name on the property title?
"There's a bag of trash at the door," Bai Jinshu raised his head from the octopus pillow, "Please help me throw it away on your way down."
Old Wu took tons of critical hits.
"No, I've only been here for less than five minutes," he argued, "You guys didn't even give me a cup of tea?"
It's okay for Bai Jinshu, they have been friends for many years, there is no need for such empty formalities between them, but a man who is staying in a house whose name is Bai Jinshu alone on the house deed, shouldn't he even pour him a cup of tea!
To be honest, if it weren't for the agent carrying the heavy burden, how could you have had such a peaceful time hanging out for so many days?
"There are Oriental Leaves in the refrigerator," Huai Jiamu glanced at him, "Get whatever you want to drink."
Old Wu suddenly thought: "I want to drink iced black tea..."
The bitter stuff like Oriental Leaves is for artists to drink. He is an agent and he doesn't need to control his weight.
Huai Jiamu: "There is a vending machine downstairs."
"Bai Jinshu, do you plan to change your partner?" Old Wu looked at Bai Jinshu sincerely, "There are so many sweet and good-looking young men nowadays. I'll introduce a few to you."
Before Bai Jinshu could say anything, his girlfriend's face darkened again.
Looking at this ugly face, Old Wu suddenly had an idea.
His gaze slowly shifted to the octopus in Bai Jinshu's hand, which was turned to the unhappy side.
He knew who this octopus looked like.
Exactly the same.
Old Wu slowly looked over the octopus ornaments, pillows, and slippers that filled the room...
"Goodbye," he stood up and walked away rationally, "I'm leaving now."
He couldn't stand staying in this room filled with the sour smell of love.
Although Old Wu was walking, he was still a nice person. While waiting for the elevator, he took away the garbage at the door.
Bai Jinshu leaned back and saw Huai Jiamu, who had a cold face just now, suddenly approached him and said in a straightforward tone: "He just said he wanted to introduce you to some handsome guys."
"I didn't ask for it either," Bai Jinshu blinked, "Old Wu was just joking."
Old Wu knew that it would be impossible for him to find it.
"He seems to dislike me." Huai Jiamu added.
"Is it hard for Old Wu to get used to you?" Bai Jinshu sat up and stroked his chin thoughtfully. "From his perspective, isn't it that after I met you, I stopped working properly and even started disappearing? Later, I went up the mountain to look at the stars in the middle of the night and got into a car accident and almost died on the mountain? In his eyes, you are just a pig that got away with the cabbage."
Can't refute it.
Huai Jiamu seemed to have a lot to say, but he couldn't reveal it because Old Wu didn't know about the foundation, and he was choked for a moment.
"And Zhang Nuoke said that Old Wu couldn't stand you because he had a good relationship with me," Bai Jinshu thought for a moment, "just like a girl's best friend can hardly stand her boyfriend."
"Zhang Nuoke..." Huai Jiamu's eyelids twitched, "He didn't fix Slenkmade, and told you that a girl's best friend couldn't stand the other's boyfriend? How does he know what a girl's best friend thinks?"
"Anyway, I think it makes sense." Bai Jinshu nodded.
The ley lines in Slenkmede are badly clogged.
The circulation of elements cannot be restored in a day or two. In addition, although the magic patterns they set up objectively extended the life of Slenkmed, from a macro perspective, it had a negative effect on the establishment of the element circulation system for the entire world.
Zhang Nuoke is now in Slenkmed and needs to repair the earth veins, dismantle the magic patterns they have set up, and find a way to restore the bodies of the indigenous people who are unconscious due to the blockage of the earth veins, so that he can be alive as soon as he opens his eyes every day.
In addition to Slenkmed, his former colleagues in the studio were eager to get into Slenkmed immediately after confirming the truth of the news. He was temporarily keeping them outside to work on the fourth expansion pack. He also needed to find some way to inform his parents of his current situation that would be acceptable to him. And those professional mentors who left here and scattered into various games in order to save Slenkmed also needed Zhang Nuoke to find them and bring them home. There were so many things to do that it made his scalp numb.
He was so busy that his daily pleasure was to take out his mobile phone and, as a person with experience, analyze across the world whether the necromancer's emotions were love or not.
But Zhang Nuoke has never been in love.
In his first twenty-six years, he was very obedient when he was in school and never fell in love too early. After college, he started his own business and had no time for love. Until a car accident sent him to another world, after discovering the problem of the earth veins in Slenkmed and realizing that this place was alive and had his own future, he felt it was weird to fall in love with the paper man in the holographic world.
But a mysterious sense of strength that came from nowhere made Zhang Nuoke accept it. As a man, he can't say no.
It was only after 523 wedding anniversaries that he realized he had no understanding of love. As a normal human being, he has the obligation to help the necromancer in the Western fantasy world to understand his inner heart!
But as a programmer, Zhang Nuoke knows that one should not take on a job if he does not have the necessary skills.
So the cyber savior Mr. Zhang Noke logged into his forum account which he had not logged into for decades, entered the love section, and sought help in the forum every day by starting with "I have a friend". Then he conveyed the content of the forum back to the necromancer Delmis after some artistic processing.
For example, when Zhang Nuoke asked Bai Jinshu how they met, Bai Jinshu said truthfully: "My partner is a god of a certain religious belief. He got into an accident and was trapped somewhere and couldn't get out. I mistakenly went in and pretended to be his believer and killed his high priest in order to leave."
After Zhang Nuoke finished a day of repairing the earth veins, he lay on the bed and logged into an account called [芋泥波波七分糖], and then artistically processed the content that Bai Jinshu had artistically processed again: [I have a friend who met his girlfriend when his girlfriend was a relatively well-known internet celebrity. My friend was his fan at first, but later got together with him after his big fan stopped following him, so now he has doubts about his relationship. ]
Then the idle netizens followed the sound:
Galaxy Batman: [Friends who chase stars are blessed (horn)——Whose sister-in-law is here (horn)——]
Wuzhixiang: [I'm going to the front line to eat melons. Sister-in-law, please reveal some more information. What group is your partner from? ]
Passerby B: [I'm just passing by. Why is the OP so hung up on this question? Are you a big fan of the sponsor? Did you invest a lot of money? Are you now hung up on the question of money or love? ]
Yiyixuan: [Isn’t it an internet celebrity? It could also be an internet celebrity or a big V or something like that? ]
Strawberry Mapo Tofu: [Melons are coming! ]
Graduate student during the day: [It turns out that even a rich sister-in-law can be mentally exhausted. I am comforted. ]
Studying at night: [Answer the question seriously. Do you think your feelings are affected by your fan status? Think about it. Do you like him as a person or as a symbol of an internet celebrity? If he were no longer an internet celebrity, would you still like him? Would you want to explore his past and touch his heart?]
Then Zhang Nuoke summarized and paraphrased: "Think back and think about whether you like your partner because of who he is or because of who he is? Do you want to get to know him?"
Bai Jinshu seemed to be thinking: "Because of himself...I definitely want to know him."
The first question is, what is so good about the identity of the evil god? If he really couldn't get out at that time, he would have been crazy to take a gamble and provoke the evil god.
And although he did summon Huai Jiamu frequently in the beginning in order to lower the synchronization rate, it seemed that as time went by, lowering the synchronization rate was no longer his first consideration. He began to think about the relationship between Huai Jiamu and the foundation, as well as the mysterious connection between Huai Jiamu and himself, and wanted to know the answers to all of this.
This is also a way of getting to know each other...
*
For example, Zhang Nuoke asked Bai Jinshu if there were any memorable landmark events between you and your partner. Bai Jinshu thought for a moment and said, "He didn't get angry after I killed his high priest. He treated it as an invitation when I called him for emergency help several times. He helped me solve two world-wide crises at the level of gods."
[Taro Bobo 70% Sugar]: [I have a friend who affected his girlfriend's career to a small extent after he met her. His girlfriend didn't get angry and helped him several times. Two of them even involved very high-level things that were inconvenient to talk about. Now they are together, and I want to recognize my own heart.]
Netizens with nothing to do are here again:
Pan Shanhai: [Suspension bridge effect, points.]
Zui Kan Mo Hua Yue Bai: [You ruined your boyfriend's career and he doesn't care? True love. ]
Desperate Paramecium: [What is it that is inconvenient to talk about at a very high level... Are you still playing dumb in an anonymous forum? ]
V587: [It is well known that there is a friend who is you. Think carefully about whether you are with your partner because he can help you or because he is the person you are with. ]
Zhang Nuoke refined and paraphrased: "Do you like your partner because he can solve problems?"
Bai Jinshu thought: "Probably not."
His attitude towards Huai Jiamu changed after [Romantic Contagion]. He discovered that the other party was not just an evil god, and had an unknown connection with him. So the positioning of Huai Jiamu in his mind gradually changed from "synchronization rate inhibitor" to "a former member of the foundation who may have suffered unknown harm and was trapped in the space of [First Hospital]". In a true sense, he broke away from the "evil god believer" template constructed after Skao took a gamble, and got along with him again.
Now that I think about it, maybe his opinion of Huai Jiamu began to change after this.
…
Sometimes Bai Jinshu would also ask for solutions to specific problems.
For example, Old Wu has always been unhappy with Huai Jiamu, which is in sharp contrast to the rich second-generations who actively flatter him on the other side. So Bai Jinshu humbly asked, processing all relationships artistically: I am a wizard who I have known for a long time and I don’t like my partner. He may think that I have become a different person after we met, and we were injured and dying together, but the actual situation is not quite the same as what he saw. It’s just due to some magical restrictions, so I am not in a position to say it. How to solve this situation?
Taro Bobo 70% Sugar: [I have a friend who, after they started dating, his childhood friend couldn't stand his girlfriend anymore. He felt that his girlfriend had caused him to go into emergency surgery, but in fact, they went to the surgery together. The childhood friend didn't know what happened between them, and he couldn't tell her the truth. How can I change her mind? ]
Then the idle netizens quickly responded:
Sunshine Rainbow Little White Horse: [You are here again. I have a friend sister. ]
Wuyang: [I haven't had time to read the title yet, share! ]
Split Wolf: [I have a friend sister, why does your friend tell you everything? ]
Jinyi: [I have a friend who is older than you. You should actively talk to your bestie about this. People involved are often confused, but those who are on the sidelines can see things more clearly. Your bestie sees things more clearly than you do.]
Liona: [No, no one read the title? You two went to the emergency room together, why can't you tell your bestie about this? ]
Exited chat: [Did you two go to be agents without telling your sister? Otherwise, I can't understand why you can't mention it after entering the emergency room. ]
Jiang Ye: [Although best friends cannot stand each other's boyfriends, as you know, we always encourage them to break up rather than reconcile, so break up.]
The wimp group gets a big score: [Seriously answer, things are really different after falling in love. Friends who used to be able to go out to eat and go shopping casually now need to consider the other person's feelings after falling in love, especially when going out with a best friend, you have to consider her boyfriend. You should care more about your best friend's feelings.]
…
Zhang Nuoke read through more than a hundred replies and summarized: "Your mage friend is too close to you, so he can't stand your partner, just like a girl's best friend often can't stand the other's boyfriend. It's not a big problem. You should do more research with him in the future or visit his mage tower more often, and take care of his mood."
Bai Jinshu thought about it thoughtfully. Old Wu was indeed one of the few people he had known for many years and had a good relationship with. In addition, his life and work were highly intertwined with hiss. Now, there was suddenly another Huai Jiamu in his stable life, who was renovating the house and disappearing from time to time. Old Wu would definitely not be able to adapt.
They used to have a good relationship, and artists and their agents are highly tied together. His social circle is narrow, but Old Wu basically knows everyone and is clear about his usual style, so he feels at ease.
But now that the foundation has been established, most exploration team members will choose to reduce their social relationships after entering the foundation, and try not to expose their occasional disappearances to others.
He couldn't disappear from the public eye all of a sudden, so he could only rely on Old Wu to coordinate and tolerate his occasional disappearances, and he really had to take Old Wu's feelings into consideration.
So Bai Jinshu took out his phone and selected Lao Wu's chat box: [Are you home? ]
Old Wu: [I’m not here, Dad. I’m at my parents’ house. Do you need me for something? ]
Old Wu: [I'll come over if you need anything. I'll bring you a bag of braised beef made by my mom. She asked me to bring you a bag. Do you want beef shank or pure lean meat? ]
Bai Jinshu: [I'm fine, I just want to visit your home with Huai Jiamu.]
Old Wu: [? ]
Old Wu called, and his mother's greetings came from the other end of the line. She asked Xiaobai how he was doing recently, whether he had encountered any difficulties at work, and whether he had any friends.
"Oh, mom, he's fine. You should pity me instead of your grandson. Pity your son who is being exploited by him all day long," Old Wu perfunctorily answered his mother while asking Bai Jinshu, who was on the phone, a shocking question, "Bai Jinshu, have you been possessed by another spirit?"
"Hey - they didn't pay you. If Xiaobai hadn't taken you in, what would you do if you couldn't pass the civil service exam?" The disgusted voice of Old Wu's mother could be heard from the other end of the phone.
"What salary? That's my mental damage compensation!" Old Wu argued, and asked again, "Bai Jinshu, have you been possessed by another spirit?"
Bai Jinshu was silent: "...No."
"Is that truth or dare?" Old Wu suspected, "Are you two with Brother Yue's group?"
"No," Bai Jinshu held his forehead with his hand, "I just want to take him to visit your home."
"You have definitely been possessed!" Old Wu said firmly, "I don't care who you are, all the warriors are marching forward in formation! Get off Bai Jinshu's body immediately!"
Bai Jinshu: ...
Is this idiot really his agent?
He rolled his eyes and hung up the phone.
Ten seconds later, Lao Wu sent a message: [Your beef is gone.]
Old Wu: [Brother, I brought you the braised beef made by my mother out of kindness, you and brother show your affection. ]
Old Wu: [Fight with Gou Nan Nan! ]
Bai Jinshu: [I don’t use Pinduoduo. ]
He sat on the sofa in silence, holding his phone. Huai Jiamu walked over wearing unhappy octopus slippers and looked at the chat page on his phone: "Does Zhang Nuoke's method work?"
Bai Jin said: "Like a tube."
Now it seems that Old Wu not only dislikes Huai Jiamu.
Old Wu still seemed to dislike him.
Forget it... It's good to be able to share some of the firepower. At least now Old Wu is scolding both of them together, and it seems much more equal.
"How about next time," Bai Jinshu pondered, "give him a bottle of iced black tea before sending him away."
After all, Old Wu was pissed off to death, and he won’t have an agent anymore.
He alone is enough to make Old Wu angry to death, and with the addition of Huai Jiamu, Old Wu's probability of suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases increases sharply.
"How is it? Does the method I taught you work?" Cyber Creator finished his work for the day and began to care about his consulting client.
"It's OK..." Delmis replied, "By the way, how are those players? You forced them to log off when we left."
Zhang Nuoke swore: "It's very good!"
Fortunately, Mr. Noke, the founder of Cyber Genesis, fumbled to delete all the online data and distorted most of the related messages on the Internet. Therefore, Wang Wenhua, Xiao Chun, and the three unlucky guys who were more resentful than ghosts were doubting the Mandela effect. When he passed by the Internet, he also caught a glimpse of Wang Wenhua's medical record, which showed that he had seen a psychiatric doctor on Saturday and was diagnosed with no disease.
He left a sentence in the desktop notepad of [Grudge is heavier than ghosts]: [Is all this just our fantasy? ]
Cyber Old Zhang passed by and left a sentence with interest: [Guess. ]
Presumably, for a long time, the hearts of these three people will be filled with endless questions and some speculations about that fantastic experience.
"Where is Hector?" Bai Jinshu thought of his apprentice.
Zhang Nuoke didn't even blink: "It's really good too!"
Fortunately, the unlucky guy Hector really became the savior, but Hector is the savior, he is the creator. When he remembers what happened when he had no memory, if he can't take revenge on others, can't he take revenge on Hector?
So out of a simple desire for revenge, Zhang Nuoke asked Hector to go home to see his sister in a skirt. Unexpectedly, this dress was recorded by someone. Now the craftsmen specially invited by Rossburg have erected a heroic statue based on it...
The new hero has led a new trend. Damn, there are now giants on this continent who wear skirts and go on adventures.
"I remember there was a cat girl cafe..." Bai Jinshu mentioned it casually.
Zhang Nuoke was sincere this time: "Can you please stop mentioning the cat girl cafe?"
The technology of turning into a cat girl is truly a breakthrough technology. The spell wizard's cat girl cafes have been opened all over the continent. Every customer who enters the cafe will ask: "Oh my god, who are these two skeletons in the frame?"
Zhang Nuoke once passed by and heard the cat maid's voice answering: "This is one of our shareholders, meow. There are still eleven months and 28 days until their wedding anniversary, meow!"
"Didn't it just pass three days?" The customer was confused. "Why do you say countdown? And why is it eleven months?"
Cat maid: "That's right, meow, because this is the wedding anniversary calendar method of our cafe, meow. There are twelve months in a year. The twelfth month is counted as 31 days, and the rest are counted as 30 days. February is counted as 28 days. There is a leap year every four years, which is 29 days, meow."
"Oh... so this thing is called a calendar. I will remember it this way from now on." The customer was very surprised.
Zhang Nuoke shuddered, suddenly remembering that there was no calendar in his underlying framework code.
As the cafe continued to expand, before he set up the calendar, this strange wedding anniversary calendar had gradually spread across the continent with the expansion of the cafe...
For example, today is the eleventh month and 23 days away from the wedding anniversary of the shareholders of the Cat Girl Cafe.
It was also the day when the novice creator discovered for who knows how many times that everyone on this continent would be ruled by Delmis.
A ghost, a ghost called Delmis, a fifth plague beyond the fourth, was hovering over Thrunkmed.
It lasts a long time.
The author has something to say:
That is to say, for Slenkmade, who uses the countdown calendar, the New Year is xql's wedding anniversary (move)
Lao Zhang (Cat holding his head and screaming): A ghost, a ghost called Dermis, is hovering over Slenkmed.
