The little doll didn't believe it, but her colleagues, each more beautiful than the last, said, "They're all beautiful."
Li Su: "You're cute."
Little doll: "They're cute too."
Li Su: "You're interesting."
Little doll: "8101 is so persistent, do you know how expensive it is? You've never seen it before, but it can be really fun sometimes."
Li Su: "You're picking your toes."
The little doll: "They pick too..." Realizing what it meant, it screamed "Ahhhhh!" and jumped up as if to hit someone, but it couldn't stand up straight. "You're talking nonsense! I don't pick my feet!"
Li Su supported him: "But I saw it with my own eyes. All the other dolls were trying to trick me into revealing my purpose, but you were sitting on the bed picking your little toes. At that time, I was thinking, which doll is so cute? The more I look at it, the more it looks like mine."
The little doll tried to recall, but couldn't remember at all.
With an incredibly slow reaction time, he only noticed the last sentence. His ankle tensed, and he angrily pointed at Li Su, "Who owns your house! You're just a thief!"
Because it is shaped like a small doll, you need to raise your hand high. The small hands are soft and cute.
"Who did I steal from?" Li Su laughed.
The little doll angrily exclaimed, "Me!"
“Baby, you are all my wealth. Thirty million for imperial green jade, twenty million for diamonds, and if I draw five nines of clubs, you are exactly those five nines.”
"Huh?" The little doll's jaw almost dropped; she was shocked.
He actually spent money to get himself out of there?
Return 50 million.
How stupid!
If he had 50 million, he would definitely spend it himself instead of drawing cards. 50 million to exchange for five nines of clubs, what an idiot, how can there be such an idiot in the world?
"It's just a game, you've invested so much money, are you an idiot?"
Li Su: "Baby, do you feel you're not worth 50 million?"
One sentence left the little doll speechless.
It's worth it, 50 million! That could buy so many BJD dolls.
Moreover, a single instance can only last for a maximum of thirty days.
Some only last seven days.
They'd even do a business that would lose them a fortune?
The little doll, though seemingly worthless, considers itself priceless.
Unable to answer, she pouted and held her breath.
She crossed her arms over her chest and turned her head away, sulking to herself.
Li Su thought this little thing had quite a temper. He picked it up and kissed it, but the little doll refused... but it didn't refuse. The other party was too strong, and it was not something a doll like him could shake.
“Baby, you are priceless. I still think 50 million is not enough. I just didn’t prepare enough. Otherwise, I would have invested another 50 million in you to make the 8202 little doll the brightest star in the whole place.”
To be fair, this idiot speaks quite nicely, so well that the little doll couldn't even get angry. It awkwardly turned its neck 180 degrees, then 180 degrees back.
He didn't say anything, but his mood clearly improved.
Li Su smiled, holding the little doll and admiring the scenery along the way. The rose-themed area was really beautiful. The asphalt road was lined with many flowers, with not much greenery, just enough to embellish the scene. The sightseeing bus took about ten minutes to drive.
The driver smiled and turned to Li Su, saying, "We've arrived at the Butterfly Garden, handsome."
Get off at Lisu.
The driver chuckled and reminded me, "You'd better buy a change of clothes before going in. Don't be fooled by how young those butterflies are; they can be quite unruly."
Li Su: "Where can I buy it?"
The driver's face was beaming like a blooming flower. He got off the sightseeing bus, opened the seat cushion with a key, revealing a storage space underneath. He then took out a set of green mesh isolation suit.
He started his sales pitch: "I happen to have a set here, it's not expensive, only a thousand yuan, handsome, would you like one?"
The little doll felt guilty. The idiot had just said that he had used all his money to buy himself, so now he was penniless.
Since everyone here is an NPC, I don't know if we can get a discount or buy on credit. Before Li Su could speak, the little puppet said, "Master, is it necessary to use money? Can I buy it? Can you see if I have any money on me?"
The master's gaze fell on the little doll.
He was a minor figure in the castle. Unless there was a specific storyline requiring the player to complete a quest, NPCs generally wouldn't make things difficult for each other.
"You absolutely need money. You're just a little doll; you don't need a protective suit."
The little doll sat on Li Su's arm, scratching its ears and chin, and said, "I bought it for him, and he used all his money to buy me. The idiot is broke now. Master, I've been an NPC for a long time. Can you see if I have a pay slip on my head?"
Li Su couldn't suppress the smile on his face.
What a surprise!
I knew I was right; she's not only adorable, but also very caring.
The driver shook his head. "No."
Little doll: "Could you write me an IOU first?"
The master laughed heartily:
"I only accept cash on delivery, no credit. Taking the goods without paying won't do any good; you'll just end up losing your life for nothing." The driver waved his hand. "It's not worth it."
"Oh? Then can I work for you and give him one for free?"
If you don't have money, use your labor to make up for it.
Li Su is growing to dislike this dress more and more.
I really want to wear a coat with big pockets inside, and then put on a jacket over it. I can just zip it up and a little doll will be inside. Just thinking about it gives me an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
The driver nodded. "Working, that's a good option."
He happened to be looking for a decoration for his car, and the doll was a perfect fit in terms of both appearance and size. "Okay, you work for me for three days, and I'll give him a set for free."
The little doll happily agreed.
Although I think Li Su is stupid, I really don't want him to be wiped out like this.
There are currently enough NPCs in Rose Castle.
Who knows where those players who were wiped out are?
If it turns into a pile of poop, it's still a step that players have to step on, which is both painful and disgusting.
Li Su disagreed and said to the driver, "No need, you can go pick up the other guests." With that, he left with the little doll.
On the road.
Little Nan Yu looked up, somewhat reluctant to see Li Su die, and earnestly told him about the horrors of the dungeon game:
"Without protective clothing, you really will get bitten by butterflies. Master isn't lying to you. Except when we trigger the lying mode, we don't lie. Don't treat this horror game as just a game. It's actually very scary here. Isn't it scary where we are at night?"
"There are traps inside and out. With over a hundred of you, it's easy to be eliminated. The price of elimination is annihilation, your soul sold into the dungeon, and you'll have to be a gamer for a very, very, very long time. And you don't even know what you'll become—a little pig, an Emei monkey, or many other things. It's just really terrifying."
Li Su patted the little doll's head and asked, "So, baby was killed because of a failed mission, and that's why you became a little doll?"
The little doll Emo nodded, subconsciously ignoring the baby's name.
How many dungeons have you completed before?
The little doll was unaware that his soul was possessing the doll's body; he was not the body's owner and had no memories.
Shake head.
Li Su smiled, touched the small hand that was no bigger than his fingernail, and said, "It's okay, you belong to me now. After this dungeon is over, I'll take you to explore other dungeons. In three more, we should enter the card-drawing phase, with a 50% chance of getting a resurrection card. If you draw one, I'll revive you."
The little doll's eyes lit up.
I didn't expect this idiot to be more reliable than the turtle.
Horror games are terrifying, with dangerous traps everywhere.
The little doll didn't quite believe in Li Su's intelligence. After all, what's the difference between spending 50 million to buy a doll and throwing money into the water and letting it flow away?
well.
Let's not put too much pressure on idiots.
"It's okay. Once you finish this dungeon, I'll probably go back to the shop window. It's really nice to sleep in there. It's too scary outside. I don't want to go out anyway."
Like some children, knowing they might not get something, they feel sad yet sensible, comforting others and themselves with insincere words.
"Little doll, you're so good."
Li Su liked him so much that it almost hurt her.
The little doll is easily flattered; he gets shy whenever someone praises him.
My impression of Li Su has improved.
Walk straight along the path and you'll arrive at the Butterfly Garden. It's covered with a large white net so the butterflies can't fly out. Half of the garden is filled with flowers, and the other half with green grass, and there are two kinds of butterflies.
Poisonous butterflies fly above the green grass, while beneficial butterflies fly above the flowers.
The number of poisonous butterflies is enormous, and visually they are beautiful and vibrant.
The beneficial butterfly is grayish in color and its numbers are only about one-tenth that of the poisonous butterfly.
Li Su wanted to enter, either by completing tasks to exchange for items or by trading things, and what he would eventually get was definitely playing cards.
As soon as I took a step, the little doll called out, "You didn't buy any clothes, you can't come in!" I said anxiously, "How about this, what do you want to do in there? I won't get injected with poison by them, I'll help you."
Li Su picked up the small doll and looked it at himself. He freed one hand and took out a cross. The wood didn't have much of an effect on the small doll.
Upon seeing the material, Nan Yu exclaimed, "Why is your cross made of wood? Is it to fight vampires? That would require silver."
Li Su smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is my talisman. Even without protective clothing, they can't do anything to me. This is peach wood, and it has many horror elements in the dungeon, so it can be used for two purposes."
A cross protects against the West, and peach wood protects against the East.
The little doll was still a little worried.
But Li Su had already gone inside.
The area covered by the net felt particularly oppressive. The sun slanted down, shading large areas of grass and exposing all the flowers to the scorching heat. There were no sound effects like those from the doll cabinets inside the castle.
But the Butterfly Garden during the day is equally eerie.
As soon as Li Su entered, he smelled a rotten odor.
The little doll sensed something was off and was a little scared. It huddled silently in Li Su's hand. A warning sign was stuck in the middle of the irises, with the rules written on it:
1. Players are prohibited from killing earthworms in the garden.
Second: Fertilize the irises; you can get fertilizer by weeding.
Thirdly: Do not use force to drive away or burn the butterflies in the park.
4. When pruning flowers, do not cut them off completely; only prune some of the branches and leaves.
5. Maintenance must be performed every 30 minutes.
Six: No insults are allowed in front of Iris.
Seven: Do not step on the irises. If ten irises wither, the player will fail the mission!
Player objective: Help the iris regain its vitality and grow healthily without being harmed by the butterflies in the garden.
A pair of scissors was hanging on the warning sign.
Li Su went to get it, but the little doll was easy to fall if he put it on his shoulder.
He simply let him lie on his head, his bottom sitting right on that rose. Li Sugang had just broken off a willow branch to secure the white hair, so the little doll wouldn't be flung off by the hair.
Nan Yu hugged tightly; he saw earthworms in the ground.
Given his size and that of an earthworm, he sees an earthworm as much as a snake does. Earthworms can turn over soil and are considered beneficial insects, but they do look a bit scary.
The garden wasn't very big, and Li Su finished cutting the leaves in about half an hour.
Skirts, especially short skirts, are only suitable for looking pretty, not for working. If you don't squat down or bend over, your thighs will be exposed.
Looking for fertilizer.
Weeds need to be removed.
The little doll only knew about its own little world, unaware of what lay outside. It scratched its cheek with its index finger, wondering, "Idiot, are all the tasks outside the house this easy? Just doing manual labor?"
Li Su paused in his search for the plow and said, "Look beyond the surface to see the essence, and there's also 'Baby.' My name is Li Su. Of course, if 'idiot' is a term of endearment, I'm willing to accept it."
See through the phenomena to the essence?
What essence are we looking at?
Isn't it just that there's a poisonous butterfly that's almost killing the flowers, so you have to shovel soil and prune branches to keep it alive and collect playing cards?
The little doll scoffed, "I just think you're stupid. Fifty million? What a fool! You're incredibly stupid!"
Li Su smiled, "But I think it's worth it. Money can't buy happiness in this instance, but it can buy happiness with you. At least it's for your company."
The little doll fell silent.
Do I really have that much value?
Fools really know how to provide emotional value to kids.
"There are many dolls in the shop window, and I'm not the prettiest one. Is it because 8101 talks too much that you noticed me?"
After all, 8101 is right below him.
Li Su: "I don't know, I just like it."
He fell in love with the little doll at first sight. Li Su thought it probably wasn't a romantic relationship, since it was just a doll and he wouldn't have any impure thoughts about it.
Is it more of a love for toys?
I think it's quite cute, and it would be fun to take it home.
Little doll: "Sigh."
Li Su chuckled and teased him, "Why are you sighing? It's my money, why are you feeling sorry for me? Did you have feelings for me all along?"
Little doll: "..."
Clenching his fist, he punched the doll on the head. This little doll actually had some strength. Li Su gasped and tried to cover it. "Are you trying to kill me?"
"Who told you to be a hooligan? Who's interested in you? Hurry up and weed!" the little puppet commanded.
Li Su smiled, clearly in a good mood. He found the plow and began to tidy up the grass from top to bottom.
The poisonous butterfly kept circling around me, seemingly wanting to attack, but unable to find a breakthrough, it could only circle around like an airplane soaring in the sky.
After clearing the entire patch of grass, they received a bag of fertilizer.
The little doll scratched its cheek: "How do I use this? Do I just pour it onto the flowers?"
"Flowers can't be exposed to direct sunlight. They need to be moved to a different location. First, transplant them, then fertilize them," Li Su patiently answered the little doll, his hands never stopping.
The pretty baby continued to scratch his cheek. He didn't know how to plant flowers. Clumsy... Oh no, Li Su, you're so good-looking and you know so much!
"Heave-ho! Heave-ho! Heave-ho!"
Li Su: "..."
Unable to resist, I straightened up, touched the ground with the sled, and, using a wooden stick for support, took the little doll down, laughing, "What are you doing, baby?"
The little doll felt awkward hearing him call her those affectionate nicknames, and turned her head shyly, saying, "I have a name, so don't call me those. I won't call you by your nickname either. If you don't like it, you can call me by my number, 8202."
Li Su smiled and said, "But I just want to call you baby. You can call me by your nickname too. I don't mind."
Little doll: "..."
Seeing his silence, Li Su's smile deepened. "Tell me what you're doing, and maybe I'll consider not shouting~"
P.S.: Only the doll dungeon is mentioned here; the rest will be briefly discussed.
