Chapter 002: Eating Watermelons in Wanjing Garden (2)
When Mo Qianhe heard Liu Tang's thoughts, he couldn't help but smile.
This person had often praised him for being handsome before, but this was the first time he had done so in such an excited tone.
Maybe because it was a psychological activity, I completely let myself go.
Mo Qianhe was not in a hurry to open the box. After all, he didn't want to complete the game too quickly.
You can look for the Guanjing Pavilion first, maybe you can chat with Liu Tang there.
Seeing Mo Qianhe leave without hesitation, the red-haired boy Min Liang ran after him.
The remaining players had different reactions.
The girl's father Feng Wenbai and Zhou Songyang looked at each other and quickly turned their eyes away.
Although his face was serious, his voice was gentle. "In order to find Susu as quickly as possible, we have to act separately as Yangyang said. The three of us, grown men, will each choose a direction to search. If the ladies are afraid, we can act together. How about that?"
When Zhou's mother heard what Feng's father said, she laughed and teased Feng's mother, "Your husband is really sweet-talking. He even knows to praise us as beauties at a time like this."
Feng's mother couldn't help but curl her lips and rolled her eyes at her husband proudly.
Then she let go of her husband's hand and took the hand of her best friend Zhou's mother.
The female pilot, who had been silent the entire time, walked up to the two mothers and said, "Then I'll go with you two. I'm in good physical condition and can protect you if you get into danger."
Although the two women did not communicate much with the pilot, he had been flying for the two families for more than half a year, so they were quite familiar with him.
Mother Zhou was straightforward and said with a smile, "Okay, the three of us women will work together and not let the men get ahead of us!"
Mother Feng covered her mouth with her hands, smiled, and nodded.
Zhou's father thought the arrangement was reasonable and agreed with it, saying to Zhou Songyang: "You are worthy of being my son, you really have some ideas."
However, the boy ignored his father's words and turned around to give the prop card to his mother.
The six people quickly divided into four teams and dispersed in the intricate garden.
Feng Xiansu in the Mirror Pavilion has gradually recovered from her heartbreak thanks to Mo Qianke's beauty.
She told herself that even if Brother Yangyang could not become her husband in the future, he would always be her good brother.
It doesn't matter, just because of different sexual orientations, it won't change the relationship between them.
Then she saw that among the people who split up, Zhou Songyang was the first to discover the second treasure chest.
The girl's eyes lit up again.
This is a combination lock that can be typed in.
[Please enter your lover's name.]
What? Brother Yangyang already has a girlfriend?
Feng Xiansu thought in surprise.
However, Brother Yangyang is already 21 years old, so it is normal for him to fall in love.
She comforted herself and looked forward to the other party's answer.
If you can't be his wife, then be his screener.
I don’t know if Brother Yangyang’s lover will be some handsome guy she knows.
Feng Xiansu stared at the mirror with a feeling of eating melon and examining her love rival or brother-in-law.
In the mirror, Zhou Songyang quickly confirmed that there was no one else around, and then with some trembling hands typed in three words: "Feng Wenbai".
He successfully opened the treasure chest and took out a [Key Information Card] from it.
Outside the mirror, the girl's world collapsed.
This is her father's name!
Liu Tang, who was standing aside, clenched his fists, restraining his urge to applaud, and exclaimed wildly in his heart:
[Great, you want to be his sister, and he wants to be your little dad!]
Mo Qianhe, who was walking in the garden, stopped when he heard this voice.
Although he had reviewed previous livestreams of this instance and read the few strategy guides available, and knew that this instance would often unearth some player gossip...
But isn’t this bloody scene coming a little too fast?
"Zhou Songyang is actually the mistress who interfered with my parents' marriage! He might as well just change his name to 'Zhongsan'!"
Feng Xiansu was about to collapse because of this matter, and suddenly realized:
His father cheated on his wife!
No, if his father has always liked men, then it is not only an extramarital affair, it may even be marriage fraud!
Scumbag!
From childhood to adulthood, her father Feng Wenbai has always been a model husband and father in the eyes of people around him. He makes a lot of money outside and treats his wife and children well at home.
Feng Xiansu has always admired her father. No matter what happens, she knows that her father is her most stable support.
At this moment, the girl felt like the mountain had collapsed.
Details that she hadn't noticed began to piece together.
After Zhou Sange went to college, he would come to her house every winter and summer vacation to help her with her homework.
After she entered her sophomore year, she started interning at Feng's company. Therefore, every time he finished explaining the exercises to her, he would go to Feng's father's room to discuss work matters with her.
We often chat for several hours.
Don't let anyone disturb you during this time.
It turned out that they were... Feng Xiansu was a little disgusted.
With tears in her eyes, she turned to look at the NPC Liu Tang beside her and found that he was in high spirits.
Feng Xiansu picked up a cushion and threw it at the other person, yelling, "Are you laughing? You're just laughing at me!"
Liu Tang slightly turned sideways, avoiding the cushion that was thrown at him, and bowed to answer: "No, distinguished guest, I am not laughing at you. I am just full of yearning and curiosity about the complex interpersonal relationships. On the contrary, I envy you very much. If I could also have a father and a brother who is not related by blood, I would feel very happy, even if they..."
"Shut up! You devil!" Before Liu Tang could finish his words, the girl quickly covered her ears and screamed to cover up the other person's voice.
"Dear guest, how could I be a devil? I am an NPC." Liu Tang showed his usual professional fake smile.
Feng Xiansu: ...
Liu Tang lightly tapped his finger, and the cushion thrown on the ground floated up according to his guidance and returned to the wooden chair.
He raised the corner of his mouth and said to the girl in a calm voice: "Please don't throw the decorations in the room around anymore."
Feng Xiansu was suddenly awakened when she saw that the other party could control objects through the air.
This is "hell". Although the red-haired player said that the person in front of her was just an NPC guide, the other party was obviously very capable. She shouldn't provoke the other party so unscrupulously.
Soon, her concerns were confirmed.
A system notification rang in my mind: "Detected that a player has discarded dungeon ornaments at random. Increased dungeon boss unlocking probability by 20%."
The color on Feng Xiansu's face faded instantly, and she was sure that she was in trouble.
When they first entered the dungeon, the red-haired player had explained to them that the dungeon boss was the one who could decide the life or death of the players. Once the boss unlocked 100%, the consequences would be disastrous.
When the girl thought of this, she immediately sat down in fear, straightened her back, and dared not move around anymore.
Liu Tang couldn't hear the system announcement, but he could see the dungeon boss unlocking level.
Seeing the girls suddenly become well-behaved and the boss's unlocking level increased, I probably guessed that there was a connection between them.
However, ever since he realized that he was an NPC, the unlocking rate of this dungeon boss has never reached 100%.
So he didn't care too much and continued to look at the bronze mirror comfortably.
Liu Tang and the novice players didn't know that the situation in the dungeon was being broadcast live in real time.
There were comments floating around in the live broadcast room:
"Hahahahaha, this is worthy of being my go-to book for eating, 'Evil Mirror Ding Ba'. There's always something new and bloody!"
"Wait for me in front, seriously, I read other books to steal the strategy, but this book is purely for stress relief."
"The girl's expression was fantastic, as was that NPC. One was acting as the 'real boss', the other as the 'entertainer'. It was hilarious."
"Is anyone there? If yes, deduct 1."
"Don't bother with the previous ones. This dungeon has no casualties and no bosses. It's low-risk and there's nothing worth learning. It's normal that no players are watching it."
In the player forum, a player posted a message:
[Is anyone watching the live stream of 'Nie Jing Ding Ba'? I just went to eat and saw that Min Liang, a core member of the 'Po Shan Guild', has gone in! Is there anything worth digging into this dungeon?!]
Within a minute, a player replied:
[Don't be ridiculous, there's no way Big Boss Minliang would go to a dungeon like that.]
[Hahaha, just a joke, Min Liang is in the Mirror Ding Ba.]
The other players came in to take a look and then left without staying for long.
Everyone originally thought that this post would soon sink like other spam posts, but they found that the replies were reversed.
[I was bored and went to investigate the fake news, and found out it was real! Boss Minliang really went there!]
[Oh my god, is this so outrageous? I'll go check it out too!]
I'm back, I'm really here! Anyway, even though this dungeon has always been known for being "useless" and "ridiculous," I've decided to catch up on the livestream!
[Slap in the face, Boss Minliang is really here! And there’s also that Mo Qianhe!]
[Silently asking, who is Mo Qianhe?]
[Mo the liar! Don't you all remember him?! He's the liar who tricked so many high-level players!]
[Hahahaha, it's him. Honestly, he's pretty good at clearing the dungeon, but he just doesn't like to explain things clearly. That's why players misunderstood him.]
[The strongest riddler in all of Hell—Mo Qianhe.]
[Hahahaha, I don't know how that liar Mo is going to trick our poor Min Liang this time. Let's go and see it together!]
Unknowingly, an unpopular copy "Nie Jing Ding Ba" unexpectedly caused heated discussion among players, and a large number of barrages began to appear in the copy live broadcast room.
Old viewers in the live broadcast room said that this was something they had never seen before.
At this time in Wanjing Garden, all the players heard the announcement that the boss unlocking rate had increased to 20%.
The young man with dyed red hair jogged all the way and finally caught up with Mo Qianhe. He said with a headache, "Who did it? There are no ornaments in this garden that can be thrown away."
Mo Qianhe ignored him and continued walking forward.
Seeing that the other party didn't respond to his words, Min Liang said again: "Brother Mo, you are wandering around everywhere and not opening the treasure chests. What are you looking for?"
Mo Qianhe kept walking, keeping his eyes on all directions, and replied lazily, "Go to the Mirror Pavilion and find that NPC Liu Tang."
Min Liang got excited when he heard this: "Why? Does he have some special item?"
Mo Qianhe shook his head: "That's not the case. I think he's good-looking and I want to take him away."
Min Liang: “…”
The red-haired boy had heard of similar things.
There is a special item called "Bionic Doll" in the points mall, which can copy the data of the copy NPC and create an identical person.
There are indeed players who, because they like the NPC in the dungeon, copy it with a bionic doll and take it out of the dungeon.
However, Min Liang had been deceived by Mo Qianhe several times in the dungeon before, and he knew that this man rarely spoke the truth.
So he guessed that this time, the other party was probably lying again.
As far as he knew, since Mo Qianhe entered the game, in addition to completing dungeons, he spent his rest time watching a lot of dungeon live broadcast videos, as if he was looking for something.
"Nie Jing Ding Ba" is a notoriously low-return copy. It is easy to clear and the points earned from clearing it are also low.
In order to enter such a low-yield dungeon, Mo Qianhe specially went to their guild to purchase a rare and expensive "designated dungeon admission ticket". He must have discovered what rare items could be found in this dungeon.
Min Liang insisted on following Mo Qianhe into the dungeon this time in order to find out the other party's true purpose.
If it really happens as he wishes and he can get rare items, then maybe he can get a share of the profits.
So this time, you don’t have to do the mission, but you must follow Lao Mo Qianke and never give him the chance to take the props for yourself.
Seeing the young man's face full of disbelief, Mo Qianhe raised his eyebrows nonchalantly and said, "Forget it if you don't believe me."
Min Liang laughed and thought to himself: I would never trust you. The Min Liang you had fooled before is dead, but the one standing before you now is Niu Hulu, the Min Liang who will never be fooled!
On the other side, Feng Wenbai, Feng's father, was walking alone in the garden and found a treasure chest on a small arch bridge.
He sat on the steps of the stone bridge, took the treasure chest, and found that the lock was a button combination lock with four numbers "0, 1, 2, 3".
A bronze mirror slowly floated in front of him.
Write the title above:
[Excuse me, among the following people, how many are related to you by blood?
Zhou Songyang, Zhou Youwei, Qian Guizhi, Feng Xiansu, and Shen Yulan]
To avoid making mistakes, Father Feng carefully analyzed the question:
Zhou Youwei and Qian Guizhi were the names of his neighbors, and Zhou Songyang was the name of his neighbor's son.
Feng Xiansu is the name of his daughter, and Shen Yulan is the name of his wife.
Obviously, there is only one person here who is related to him by blood, and that is Feng Xiansu.
This question is also very simple.
Feng Wenbai came to the conclusion and pressed the button "1".
Unexpectedly, the combination lock issued a warning: "Ding ding, wrong password."
At the same time, a system prompt sounded in the minds of all players: "It was detected that a player entered the wrong password when opening a box. The unlocking rate of the dungeon boss has increased to 40%."
After hearing these two rounds of reports, Feng Wenbai broke out in a cold sweat on his forehead.
What shocked him even more was that the answer he chose was wrong.
Could it be that among these five people, besides Su Su, there are other people who are related to him by blood?
His wife had a pre-marital physical examination and background check with him, and there was no blood relationship between them.
There is absolutely no doubt that Zhou Songyang is Qian Guizhi's biological son.
He and Qian Guizhi had no relationship beyond friendship, so Zhou Songyang could not be his son.
As for the two neighbors of the same age...
The ancestors of the Zhou family had always had dealings with their Feng family, but in recent years the Zhou family had gradually declined and the two families had become increasingly estranged.
Zhou Youwei and he were both the only sons of two families, so it shouldn't be the case that one was the illegitimate child of the other.
If it were true, given the disparity in status and wealth between the two families, Zhou Youwei would probably be eager to return to his roots as soon as possible and would not have kept it secret until now.
As for Qian Guizhi... the Qian family and the Feng family have never had much contact, so there really isn't any connection between them...
Wait, what if the answer isn't more, but less?
When Mr. Feng thought of this possibility, his heart sank.
Some memories flooded into his mind, forcing him to admit that the possibility of the answer being "0" was perhaps far greater than "2" and "3".
He took a deep breath and pressed the "0" button with some pain.
The combination lock opened with a click, revealing half a key.
He put the treasure chest back to its place somewhat exhaustedly, slumped on the ground, and remained in his senses for a long time.
In the Mirror Pavilion, Feng Xiansu felt as if her soul had flown away.
What kind of tragedy is this?! She isn't her scumbag father's biological daughter!
Although her father is a scumbag, he has spoiled her over the years and she still loves him very much.
I thought my dad's cheating was outrageous, but it turns out my mom had been cheating on him for a long time!
Feng Xiansu really wanted to swear, but she was afraid that swearing would increase the Boss unlocking level, so she had to hold it back.
Liu Tang looked at the girl's shaky figure and comforted her, "Think positively, then your 'Brother Yangyang' won't be your little dad anymore."
Feng Xiansu turned back angrily, tears streaming down her face: "Be a human being!"
Liu Tang politely replied, "I can't do anything. I'm just a pile of data."
Feng Xiansu: “…”
She finally realized that she was wrong. She shouldn't have mocked this guy and said he was an NPC in front of him. This guy really paid her back tenfold!
While Feng Xiansu was still repenting, Liu Tang had already shifted his attention to the numerous mirrors in the pavilion, constantly observing the movements of other players. He couldn't help but wonder:
[Then the question arises, who is Feng Xiansu's biological father? ]
Mo Qianhe, who was walking in the garden, heard Liu Tang's voice and decided to give up looking for Guanjing Pavilion.
“These guys are amazing.”
He sighed in his heart, walked to a stone table, took out a piece of paper from his arms, spread it on the table, picked up a pen and began to take notes.
Upon seeing this, Min Liang immediately stepped forward, thinking that this person must be memorizing some important information.
Then Mo Qianhe drew a relationship diagram between the Feng and Zhou families on paper.
The red-haired boy's cute face was full of question marks.
Instead of studying the copy information, you study the relationships between players. What's the trick?
Before he could ask, he saw Mo Qianhe write "not biological child" on the parent-child connection line between Feng's father and Feng Xiansu.
Wait, what?!
"No, how do you know that Miss Feng is not her father's biological daughter? Did I miss some information?!" Min Liang was shocked.
Then, he watched Mo Qianhe draw a line between Feng's father and Zhou Songyang and mark the word "lovers".
ha?
Aren't they all men?!
Isn't Mr. Feng already married?! Doesn't he seem to have a good relationship with his wife?!
Isn't Zhou Songyang Feng's father's junior?!
Min Liang froze on the spot. His lush red hair was like a burning flame, and black smoke came out as if his brain was overloaded.
Although he is an old player, he is still only a 16-year-old boy!
He really doesn't understand why the adult world is so complicated.
Players who came to watch Min Liang in the live broadcast room have already flooded the screen with comments:
"Hahahahaha, save the child, he looks like an idiot!"
"If I hadn't seen the footage of the other players, I would probably be confused too, hahahahaha."
"Minliang, my poor boss, you're just a baby! You shouldn't have to face the hardships of life head-on!"
"So low-reward dungeons are so interesting! Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter."
"Stop laughing, stop laughing! Hurry up and look at the perspectives of those three female players. They're about to start a fight!"
"Really? I'm going right now!"
"Let's go together!"
