Weird Talker

Chapter 17 Players Assemble
Boss Shi was indeed a boss, and he immediately recognized that Qin Manjiang was also the unlucky guy who was going to Xianyang Village.

"Come on, take my car, otherwise, when the seven days are up, it will be inconvenient for us to escape without a car."

When Qin Manjiang thought about it, it was the same reason.

He took a look at the other party, and at first glance, Shi Shi's boss was a little sloppy, but after a closer look, he found that this person actually had the temperament of a literati.

Boss Shi leaned over and opened the co-pilot's seat to Qin Manjiang.

"My name is Shi Lianshan, I'm in the antique business, what about you?"

Seeing this, Qin Manjiang got into his car, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Shen... Abyss, my name is Qin Manjiang, and I'm still a student."

"Haha, I knew it. You are younger than my son. Don't be angry when I called you a child just now."

Shi Lianshan said cheerfully,
"When I saw the code name, I knew that the player's age would not be too old."

Qin Manjiang was a little embarrassed at this moment.

He was suddenly a little curious. The state and mood of Boss Shi didn't look like he was going to a village where ghosts and curses existed. It was just like an ordinary trip. Isn't he afraid?

Boss Shi seemed to see his doubts, handed over a bottle of frozen canned coffee, and said, "It's early in the morning, refresh yourself, we'll have to stay in that village for seven days, it's a little bit relaxing now."

"Thank you." Qin Manjiang took the coffee, but did not open it immediately.

Boss Shi didn't care, but said: "You may not know my business very well. Most of the transactions of antiques are done in private, and those who can show it on the bright side can't make much money at all. Three years If it doesn’t open, it will take three years after opening, that’s what we say.”

He seems to be very talkative: "When I was young, I went to the countryside with people to buy goods. It was not a lie. What I earned was a vision and courage. After all, we are not sure whether some things are true or not. Some honest-looking people have been tricked, that guy, holding a bottle as a treasure, I invited him to dinner and he pretended to be drunk, took out the bottle and cried, saying that it was a bottle from the Southern Song Dynasty, It has been passed down from generation to generation, and I couldn't bear it, so I believed the nonsense of telling the truth after drinking, so I took the bottle down."

"Then show it to my master, hey! This craft is quite new, just came out last year to make old technology. Damn, absolutely!" It seems that many years have passed, but Boss Shi is still chattering, "So I Let me tell you, Xiao Qin, poverty, remoteness, backwardness, ignorance, country people, mountain people, these things are not necessarily related to honesty and duty, on the contrary, the more remote the country, the more isolated the village, the more tricky the people, and the more the customs It's getting weirder."

Qin Manjiang nodded. He is a countryman himself. Speaking of which... some customs in Xiahe Village can be called weird.

"Where are the others?" Qin Manjiang glanced around, but didn't see anyone who looked like a stranger.

"There are two who haven't come yet, and the other two are going to the town to buy something to prepare. We'll wait here." Boss Shi glanced at his phone. At this time, a car that was worth a lot of money also drove away. come over.

"Di Di-"

After the whistle sounded twice, the car window was rolled down, and a woman wearing big sunglasses and exquisite makeup showed half of her face, looking at Boss Shi and Qin Manjiang.

"You are……"

She took the initiative to ask, her voice gentle and pleasant.

Boss Shi hurriedly raised his hand to say hello: "I'm Boss Shi, my real name is Shi Lianshan, is Miss Chi Yu or are you bored to death?"

Qin Manjiang's heart skipped a beat. It seemed that the two who went shopping in the town were Qing Teng and Daobi Li, and the two who hadn't come yet were Chi Yu and Fansi.

But to his surprise, Boss Shi didn't seem to have seen Chi Yu and was so annoying.

Tired of being a top ten player on the leaderboard, yet you never acted with him?

"I am... Abyss, you can call me Qin Manjiang." Qin Manjiang also greeted, only then did he realize how difficult it is to speak of the code name he had chosen in real life.

"Ah... Hello, I'm Chi Yu." The lady also said her code name in the game.

"This is also my pen name...my real name is Liu Jingqing."

Unlike the eldest sister who drives a luxury car and wears big sunglasses, this Miss Chi Yu always speaks in a soft voice, but it can make people feel the fear and anxiety in her heart.

Boss Shi's glasses lit up, and he clapped his hands: "When I saw the name Chi Yu, I was thinking, could it be that Chi Yu? Was your novel adapted into a TV series some time ago?"

Ms. Liu Jingqing nodded and forced a smile: "It's me."

Boss Shi was about to boast a few more words, but when he saw her face, he stopped talking: "That...that's pretty good, I didn't expect you to be selected by this game..."

The atmosphere suddenly became dull.

Indeed, wealth and power in real life cannot resist the existence of idealism at all.

Qin Manjiang tried all the crosses, Avalokitesvara, Jade Buddha, evil spirits, and ghosts that Qin Manjiang brought to the cinema, but they were completely useless.

They have no other choice but to obey its rules of the game honestly.

"By the way, Miss Liu, you can't drive into Xianyang Village with this car, take my car."

Boss Shi said.

Liu Jingqing glanced at him and Qin Manjiang, then nodded, "Then... I'll trouble you."

Boss Shi waved his hand and said, "What's the trouble? This car is just for driving on bad roads, and it can seat seven people. We can fit a little more stuff."

Having said this, Boss Shi was silent for a moment.

"I don't know the previous experience of the two of you, but in this strange talk, I hope we can cooperate sincerely and help each other. In this world, the only people who can understand our situation at the moment are those who are also deeply involved in this game each other."

"Old Shi is right," a thick male voice came from not far away. He was wearing a sports backpack and shaved. He was in good shape and carried a lot of things in his hands. He is middle-aged, but his mental state is very good. "Hello, I am a knife and pen official, a history teacher who loves sports. My real name is He Jian. Just call me Lao He."

He unceremoniously opened the door of the back seat of the off-road vehicle and threw everything on it: "Counting this time, this guy and I have cooperated for the second time."

He Jian pointed at Shi Lianshan with his chin, and said while moving things: "As a weaker party, if we still focus on intrigue and do not find a way out of trouble, we are completely committing suicide. Survival resources, information, new information, etc. These ideas can be shared, and the most important thing is to unravel the strange story, or escape from the strange story.”

"Yes...yes, we...should help each other." Another male voice appeared. Only then did Qin Manjiang and Liu Jingqing realize that behind the tall He Jian was a thin young man.

He wears glasses, is in his 20s, stands awkwardly, has a trembling voice and looks unsure.

"I'm... Qingteng, temporarily unemployed... my real name is... Chen Ping."

After a few brief chats, Qin Manjiang gained some confidence.

At least for now, his first multiplayer mode has not encountered any weirdos, and everyone is worried about the next seven long days.

However, it's annoying that it hasn't appeared yet.

"What's the matter, you haven't come here yet... Haven't you been in contact with Fansi before?" Shi Lianshan asked.

Everyone shook their heads, and even Qin Manjiang was playing a strange talk game with other people for the first time.

"Too bad...then we can't wait, it will take more than half a day just to drive there. Could it be that No.10, what happened on the way?" Shi Lianshan murmured.

"I think... I... let's go there first? If we are late... we will die directly..." Chen Ping whispered.

However, this sentence moved Qin Manjiang's heart.

He turned his head and said to Shi Lianshan in the driver's seat: "I also think we can start, No.10 should have its own ideas."

Shi Lianshan glanced at the rearview mirror, and everyone gave him affirmative looks, so he nodded:

"Okay, let's go!"
