When the two arrived at the auction, the waiter told them that the business hours here would not start until after the blood moon ended on July 16.
The casino at the back was open, but only people gambled with machines, like slot machines and roulette. All other gambling machines were not open. Only train conductors could enter the core areas of the city. After a walk around, I saw some people, but they were all from Yu Qian'an's area.
Back in the car, Yu Qian'an felt that this coastal town was not simple, but he had not yet figured out what was different about it.
Before evening, Jia Xu came to report: "Boss, someone found a beggar in the food street. Perhaps you would be interested in meeting him."
Yu Qian'an: "Aren't there only merchants here? Are there beggars?"
Jia Xu: "He said he used to be a train conductor, but later got tired of that extreme survival life and chose to stay in the coastal town. It's not that there are no residents here, but they all live outside the city. In order to welcome the new train, their living area has been locked in another space. During this time, no one except people with jobs like him is allowed to enter or leave."
Yu Qian'an followed Jia Xu to the food street and saw a group of tourists gathered there asking questions.
Seeing Yu Qian'an coming, the group of people consciously made way for him. Yu Qian'an saw a sign in front of the beggar: "One gold coin, one question."
Yu Qian'an threw out a gold coin: "What is the purpose of this game?"
The beggar glanced at Yu Qian'an and said, "One hundred gold coins!"
Yu Qian'an: "You're bullying me, aren't you? It says one gold coin per question, but mine is one hundred gold coins per question."
The beggar pointed at the small words that looked like a period and said, "It's a gold coin, a question. Can't you see the words so big?"
Yu Qian'an didn't care about the 100 gold coins, but wasn't this a fraudulent consumption? Taking a deep breath, Yu Qian'an gave the 100 gold coins and asked, "What is the ultimate goal of this game?"
Beggar: “I don’t know!”
Yu Qian'an: "I don't know how you dare to take my money! Are you looking for a fight?"
The beggar's lips curled up. "First, I'm just answering questions. I'm not saying I can answer them correctly or that I know the answers. Second, I want to remind you that this is a safe zone. We are all protected by the system, and malicious attacks will be wiped out!"
Yu Qian’an: “…”
He took a deep breath and said, "You think I can't do anything to you, right? If you don't give me a satisfactory answer today, I will send people to guard here. No one will be allowed to ask you any questions, and no one will be allowed to give you any gold coins. I don't believe you can live a lifetime by cheating a hundred gold coins!"
Beggar: "Look, you are anxious again. Don't you think about it? If a stinky beggar like me can easily tell you the purpose of the game, would you believe it?
Although I don't know the ultimate goal of the game, I have met many train conductors and have driven trains across the universe. I can tell you about my experiences and everyone's speculations.
Some believe that the purpose of this game is to select the most outstanding races in the universe to carry out an unknown mission. As the game becomes more and more advanced, it forces everyone to continue to improve.
Some people believe that the purpose of this game is to save the destroyed civilizations in the universe. Because the worlds we travel through are all broken, destroyed, or chaotic, we need to save them one by one.
Some people believe that the purpose of this game is to kill, to keep the races of the universe fighting each other, and to provide entertainment for higher civilizations. Because survival games, since they are both survival and games, are definitely entertainment.
Some believe the purpose of this game is to cleanse the universe of all living things that disrupt its normal operation. Because from the perspective of the entire universe, life is like a tumor, maliciously destroying the order of the universe.
Some people believe that the purpose of this game is destruction, and that the Creator God wants to destroy deformed civilizations through our hands, because every world we create is a deformed civilization that needs us to destroy it and then create a new civilization order.
Some people believe that the purpose of this game is reconstruction. There are problems with their civilization, and the game will choose him to open up a new direction for their civilization, because there will be passengers on their train and a world will gradually form.
And so on, there are many kinds of guesses, and different guesses also allow them to have different ways of playing and different experiences.
The game itself only cares about the goal, not the method used to reach it. Just like you, you reconstructed the order of the Blood Moon world. Some chose to let the ghosts unify the three realms, while others chose to ignore the conflicts among the three realms and focus on the journey. None of this matters. As long as you can reach the station on the night of the Blood Moon, you will be the winner.
Yu Qian'an: "What's the next level?"
Beggar: "One hundred gold coins."
After paying, Yu Qianan looked at the beggar expectantly. The beggar put away the money and said, “I can’t tell you that!
You see, you are anxious again. We have received supervision from the system and cannot disclose the next step of the game. I can only tell you that, like the previous answer, people have many choices and can complete the game in their own way.
Some chose to abandon everything and set out again, some chose to take more people with them, some chose to only keep summoned units and a few carriages, and some chose to stay.
Yu Qian'an handed over another hundred gold coins: "Let me change the question. Who is the most successful person you have ever heard of?"
The beggar smiled and said, "What is good? What is bad? Some people like to be supported by the masses, sitting on the throne and enjoying all kinds of offerings in their own independent kingdom, calling themselves emperors. This is their happiness. Even if they have to walk on the road all the time, they will still be happy.
There are also people who like gods and want to become gods themselves, have the faith of all, become omnipotent gods in their own world, and enjoy billions of incense sticks. This is their happiness, and they take pleasure in faith.
Some people only pursue success and avoid unstable factors that affect success. They would rather go on the road alone, or bring only a few summoned heroes with them. They are happy every time they reach a goal.
There are also people who only focus on their own cultivation, abandoning everything and exchanging everything for the opportunity to cultivate. As long as they are constantly improving, they will be very happy.
In their eyes, they are the ones who are doing the best, and everyone else is just enjoying vulgar and inferior happiness.
So, to be successful requires a prerequisite: what do you consider to be good?
This question really stumped Yu Qian'an. Throughout this journey, from the moment he received the first passenger, Yu Qian'an had not been happy. Originally, he was just pursuing an ordinary survival game, with a wider carriage, enough food, little surprises every time he unpacked the box, and no need to worry about survival. That was all.
