The sun was setting. Chi Shen had lunch, took a nap, and began to read the plan Li Xu had given him.
Li Xu's focus in selecting materials is not on each victim, but on the statue of the God of Wealth. The entire game revolves around the statue of the God of Wealth.
Chi Shen checked the opinions of netizens again. One saying was that the statue of the God of Wealth was stained with too much blood and had long since turned into an evil god. Li Xu's inspiration also came from here. His initial idea was that the statue of the God of Wealth imprisoned the soul of the victim. The player needed to rescue the soul of the victim, defeat the statue of the God of Wealth, and send everyone away.
This conception continues the characteristics of Li Xu's previous pixel-style horror game, which has thrills and terror, unexpected developments, warmth, and a sublimation at the end.
Chi Shen felt that his previous game was pretty good, so he didn't have any opinions, and the main storyline hadn't come out yet. Li Xu's job for him was to come up with ideas, so Chi Shen boldly began to write down his own ideas.
He created a new folder and a new Word document, naming it "The Main Storyline of "God of Wealth"".
…
Half an hour later, Chi Shen glanced at the time in the lower right corner. It was five o'clock!
He picked up his phone, put on his coat, and prepared to leave work.
Chi Shen looked up and looked around the office, and found that the few people in the office had not left. Everyone was doing their own thing. Some were watching TV, some were watering the flowers, some were taking off the keycaps one by one and putting them back one by one, and even worse, some were playing Spider Solitaire.
Ma Caijin had just returned from the tea room. He saw that he was packing up to leave work and was immediately startled: "Are you leaving?"
Chi Shen glanced at his phone: "It's five o'clock, time to get off work."
Ma Caijin: “Have you finished reading the materials?”
Chi Shen: “I’ve finished reading it.”
Ma Caijin: "Do you have any idea about the main plot?"
Chi Shen closed the blank document and nodded seriously: "I have an idea."
Seeing Chi Shen's serious look, Ma Caijin sighed and said earnestly to Chi Shen: "You just started this business, so you may not understand. Although there are not many things you can do and you have done what you should do, you still have to show off. How can we leave when the boss hasn't left? For gamers, is it reasonable to leave work at five o'clock?"
Li Xu did stay in the company very late, always working alone, and looked worried every day. Ma Caijin even guessed to Chi Shen that it was probably because the salary had reached the maximum but they still couldn't recruit anyone that made Li Xu so worried.
"The company is in a recession right now, so we as employees have to put in some effort to perform," Ma Caijin advised. "At least we have to put in some effort to perform and stay until... 7, 8, 9 o'clock, right?"
Chi Shen deeply agreed that the salary was at the ceiling, otherwise he would not have taken the initiative to work overtime to improve the working environment.
But he was really sleepy today.
Chi Shen put the two documents into his bag and said to Ma Caijin, "I will go back to work overtime. I believe Brother Li can understand me."
Despite Ma Caijin's repeated dissuasion, Chi Shen finally left.
Ma Caijin sighed and packed up his things. Then he sat down and looked at the floor plan of Liu Huangqiang's house. He hesitated and thought, why don't he leave half an hour earlier today?
Who doesn’t want to get off work early?
Although Chi Shen left the company early today, he did not go back to the old house directly.
After all, the old house was deserted and there was no place to eat dinner. He planned to have dinner first and then go back, so as to miss the evening rush hour.
Chi Shen ordered a bowl of the cheapest noodles in the noodle shop in the corner, found a seat by the side, and sat down to eat the noodles quietly.
Winter was getting closer and the nights came earlier and earlier. In a moment, it was already dark. The lights of various colors outside the store lit up one by one. From time to time, someone would look at him curiously and shyly. Chi Shen also looked at the noisy streets outside. Just a bowl of noodles made him feel warm and happy.
In the past, he only felt that the world was noisy and irritating, and everyone had to use all their strength to live the life they wanted. People came to this world to suffer.
But now it's different.
He likes this world full of fireworks.
At this time, the cell phone rang. Chi Shen slowly ate the last bite of noodles and then took out his cell phone.
——Unknown number.
Without any hesitation, Chi Shen answered the call: "Hello."
"People...so many people..."
There was a vague female voice on the other end of the phone, accompanied by the sound of paper rustling. It was so strange, but the voice seemed very excited: "There are so many people, they smell so good and look so delicious..."
The small noodle shop where Chi Shen worked was very shabby, but the business was good, with people sitting almost next to each other. He was reluctant to spend money, and his cell phone was old and out of service, so the receiver leaked sound. At this moment, the older brother sitting next to Chi Shen looked up at the young man with red lips and white teeth, and silently moved the bowl away.
"Don't be anxious, speak slowly, you can't eat people." Chi Shen was very calm.
The big brother immediately looked at Chi Shen with horror, probably thinking that he had met a lunatic. He immediately dragged the stool to the side and sat a little further away.
"It smells bad, so uncomfortable!" The voice on the other end of the phone was that of a female ghost in red. Ordinary people would feel a chill on their backs when hearing it. Of course, Chi Shen didn't care about this flaw of his friend.
Yesterday, Chi Shen found out that someone had come to the old house, so he wrote his phone number to the female ghost in red and asked her to call him if anything happened. He didn't expect to use it today.
"What's that smell?" Chi Shen asked, "Is it from the corpse or the incense and candles?"
The elder brother next to him: ...
"For incense and candles," the red-clothed female ghost's voice sounded very excited, "There are a lot of talismans pasted outside the door."
Chi Shen stood up from the small table, opened the door of the restaurant and left.
The eldest brother looked at his half bowl of noodles, then looked at the young man who was leaving. He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that when the man made the phone call just now, the temperature around him dropped by two degrees. After thinking for a long time, he didn't even eat his meal and chose to run away with his bag.
On the phone, the red-dressed ghost was still talking. Her voice was filled with fear, yet she was very happy: "Someone was calling me. I heard him. He asked me who called me last night. It was me!"
"If you want to go out, go out," Chi Shen smiled after hearing the happy voice of the red-clothed female ghost, "but you have to wait for them to make a move first before you can do anything. This is considered self-defense."
In the old house of the Bai family, Bai Hengqing stood in the middle of the Taoist temple. He lit a talisman for summoning ghosts with his left hand, and the talisman paper ashes fell on a smashed telephone. He held the soul bell in his right hand and shook it rapidly.
Suddenly, the souls surged, and a strong wind blew from the north. Several young people who came to the dojo to help huddled together, looking at the souls, whispering, "Is it here?"
The female ghost in red was already standing at the door, holding a paper phone, eager to ask the man why he wanted to see her. Suddenly, a cold breath filled the entire old house. The female ghost in red shrank her neck and quietly hid back under the bed.
The wind blew up the paper ashes with a chilling breath. Bai Hengqing stood in the strong wind and lit another ghost summoning talisman. He activated the soul bell in his hand. When the talisman paper burned out, he suddenly looked in one direction: "Here it comes!"
The portrait of the ancestor placed outside the side courtyard of the old house suddenly had several scratches, which looked like marks left by fingernails. An extremely cold breath surged from the gaps, and the female ghost's frightening voice sounded coldly: "What do you want from me?"
Red candles were spread out layer by layer in the back yard, and the portrait of the ancestor suddenly caught fire. The talismans and the portrait burned out, leaving only the two spirit tablets as if nailed in place, without any abnormality. A female ghost in a wedding dress and a red veil stood among the red candles, and seemed to be looking at them from afar through the veil, and drops of blood from the veil fell to the ground.
An extremely cold and terrifying aura emanated from the female ghost. The young men of the Bai family had never seen such a terrifying ghost. Except for Bai Ran, they all hid behind Bai Hengqing.
Bai Hengqing also groaned, took a step back, and turned to the wedding dress ghost and said respectfully: "Please rest, ancestor. We are investigating the evil ghost that caused trouble in the Bai family last night."
"No need to check, it's me," the ghost in wedding gown said with a sinister smile from under her veil, "So, you put my parents' tablets here just for this?"
