Infinite Script Killing
Chapter 20 The beginning of a new game
Before dawn the next day, Xu Tong had already gone home early.
Old Man Song gave him the small house on the left, which gave him a place to stay in this city.
During the past two days, Xu Tong cleaned the yard during the day and began to learn the basic skills of paper-tying under the guidance of Old Man Song at night.
Others often need to practice these basic skills day after day to find the key, but with the help of the prop card [Paper Craftsman's Book], I can learn it easily.
Often Old Man Song only needs to do it once for Xu Tong, and Xu Tong can easily master it after a few exercises and do it perfectly.
This can't help but make Old Man Song have a new perspective on Xu Tong's talent.
But these are far from enough. The basics of paper-making include not only techniques and skills, but also how to write and draw. Xu Tong does not have the assistance of prop cards for this, so he can only learn it honestly.
Fortunately, Old Man Song also had the patience to teach slowly. Although the two did not officially recognize each other's identities, the relationship between master and disciple was already tacit to each other.
After dinner that night, Old Man Song took out two black and white photos from the box and gave them to Xu Tong.
He took it and took a look, and saw in the photo a group of people wearing official uniforms and pigtails, sitting neatly on horses.
At first he didn't think there was anything wrong, but when he took a closer look, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and tilted his head to look at Mr. Song who was sitting on the chair playing with the cigarette rod: "Paper man?"
Seeing that Xu Tong noticed it, Mr. Song nodded with a smile and pointed to the man wearing a torn cotton-padded jacket in the lower left corner of the photo:
"This is my master! When the Empress Dowager Cixi was about to die, my master went to make paper figures for Cixi. These were all made by my master. Remember, his old man's name is Xue Gui."
When Xu Tong heard this and looked at the photo, he couldn't help but be in a trance. This skill simply crushed Old Man Li.
This black-and-white photo has no color. If I hadn't seen Old Man Li's paper figures, I might not have been able to tell that those people riding tall horses were actually paper figures.
"Back then, my master was a famous papermaker. No one could find fault with anything he made."
Mr. Song picked up the cigarette rod, put a handful of tobacco inside, sat on the chair and started smoking.
While smoking, he talked about the past events when his master taught him to make origami figures, with pride on his face.
As he spoke, Old Man Song stopped talking. When Xu Tong looked up, he found that the old man had fallen asleep with his eyes squinted. If you listen carefully, you can hear snoring.
He looked back at the clock and saw that it was already 11:20 at night, so he quietly took the old man's cigarette rod, found a blanket to cover him, turned off the lights and quietly exited the door.
As soon as the door was closed, lights in the distance flickered in the dark night. When I looked up, I saw a huge light flashing on the building not far away. It was the sign of the Script Killing Experience Center.
"A new round of script world is about to begin. Please go to the lobby to assemble this time."
"Attention, the actors are asked to assemble as soon as possible before the script starts. Those who exceed the time limit will have 10 script points deducted per minute. If the script points are not enough, they will be eliminated!"
Following the reminder sound in his ears, Xu Tong curled his lips. As he had guessed, there was a penalty for being late.
However, this punishment mechanism seems to be more lenient than I thought. It does not mean that there is no way for people to survive. As long as the script points are enough, there is still a chance of survival.
After putting on some clothes, he quietly closed the door and walked towards the building.
In fact, it's not that far. I remember there was a restaurant over there. It would take about five minutes to walk there.
At 11 o'clock, the lights on the streets became dim, and there was not even a trace of a vehicle on the road.
It seems that the closer you get to the building, the more the surrounding buildings begin to deteriorate.
Even the trees on the street can't help but give people a ferocious and depressing feeling.
The traffic lights on the road seem to always be red, like a silent warning, and those who watch feel panicked.
"Buzz~~~"
After gently pushing open the glass door, that familiar face came into view.
The pale face is still sweet to the point of being cloying.
After seeing Xu Tong, the woman reminded her calmly: "You have half an hour to prepare. If there is nothing else, you can wait in the lobby for other players to arrive."
After speaking, she did not forget to point to the sign hanging on the wall on the left.
There is a line of small red letters written on the sign: [It is forbidden to exchange any information about the script in the hall. Violators will be given a warning and 10 script points will be deducted. 】
Xu Tong nodded thoughtfully and walked past the woman while whistling slowly.
"Virtue!"
The woman rolled her eyes at him. After sitting down again for a moment, she raised her head again to confirm that Xu Tong was really gone. She pouted and sat back on the chair with a bored expression. She bent down and took out a bag from the pocket under the chair. The iron box is placed on the table.
At this moment, her eyes suddenly froze, and she saw an origami crane appearing on the table.
Picking up the paper crane, the woman glanced outside the bar and pouted: "Stingy!"
But after saying that, I still dug out a glass bottle filled with eyeballs from the drawer cabinet, threw the eyeballs inside into the trash can, and threw the paper crane in my hand into the bottle to admire it.
After looking at it for a while, maybe she thought it was good, so she put the bottle in front of her, opened the iron box on the table, looked at the delicious food in the box, and started licking her slender tongue along her lips.
Not long after, I heard a low gnawing sound coming from under the bar...
In the hall on the other side, Xu Tong found that he was not the first one to arrive.
A young man was sitting opposite him. The two looked at each other. After examining each other, they felt familiar with each other.
Like Zhou Yu, he is not a novice.
"Mourn the dog!" The young man squinted his eyelids and raised the tea cup in his hand with a smile.
Xu Tong sat opposite the young man, picked up the magazine he had not finished reading before, and said calmly: "Doctor!"
After the two of them revealed their identities to each other, dead silence gradually returned to the empty hall.
But before long, as the sound of footsteps came, three more people came one after another.
The three men were very different in age. The younger one looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and the oldest one looked like he was old enough to be a father to the other two.
But despite their age, Xu Tong and Sangou couldn't help but look at each other. This man was wearing a military green vest, showing off his exaggerated muscles.
Sitting on the sofa felt as if the entire sofa was tilted towards him.
As for the one in the middle, he was about the same age as him. He held his headphones and sat down on the sofa, then closed his eyes and looked like he was recharging his energy.
The three of them had no intention of introducing themselves, and they had no intention of asking Xu Tong and Sang Gou their names.
The arrogance and confidence in their behavior were enough to show that in their hearts, Xu Tong and Sang Gou were completely inferior characters, not worth mentioning at all.
"Buzz...kakaka..."
The red light illuminated from one side of the hall, and everyone looked sideways, still wearing the familiar cheongsam.
The only difference is that today's cheongsam has been replaced by dark purple.
This adds a bit of mature woman's temperament to the host's already graceful figure, like a ripe apple, exuding an alluring fragrance.
"Welcome to this script-killing game, please come with me!"
The paper fan covered her face, and the seductive voice made people feel a tingling sensation in their bones. The mourning dog on the sofa nearby couldn't help but lick his tongue.
Unfortunately, before Sanggou could get up, two figures had already walked into the corridor leading to the game area one step ahead of him.
What was even more irritating was the strong man who was as big as a mountain. He leaned directly over and squeezed away the mourning dog following behind.
The mountain-like body blocked the corridor tightly, leaving not even a crack for the two of them.
"Damn it!" The mourning dog did not dare to say anything, but in his heart he had already begun to greet the strong man's family.
Xu Tong didn't care, and followed behind slowly, occasionally admiring the stills in the corridor.
As he looked at it, he paused and saw a familiar still.
Sitting on a coffin was a man and a woman. Aren't they Zhou Yu and Wang Shaohui who participated in the game with him last time?
"Do you know me?"
Seeing that he didn't leave, Mangou looked back at the photo: "Those who died in the script will leave a photo here. This is their ending and the only thing left after they die."
Looking at the photo wall in this corridor, Sanggou couldn't help but take a long breath. Every photo was the ending of a player.
Every time I walk by here, I get chills.
I always worry that after this visit, the next time the people on the photo wall will have another photo of themselves.
Just when he was feeling deeply worried, Xu Tong's voice came to his ears: "How ugly!"
Sanggou was stunned, then looked back at Xu Tong, only to see him making a few gestures on the photo, and said with a look of disgust: "Can't we refer to the style of Hong Kong movies?"
"This photographer must be a single guy. He takes such ugly pictures. He definitely doesn't have a girlfriend."
Xu Tong turned around and said to Sanggou seriously.
The corner of Sanggou's mouth twitched a few times. At this time, the host was already standing at the door of the room and said: "Please come in as soon as possible. The game is about to begin."
The two of them looked back and saw that the three people who were walking in front had already chosen a room and walked in.
Seeing this, the two of them could only drop the topic and quickly walked to the door.
Three of them have been selected, leaving only two rooms on the left and right that have not been selected.
Xu Tong looked to the left and was about to walk up when Sangou suddenly said: "Be careful, they are a team, and they are stronger than us. It is best not to follow them after entering the script world."
"Why, isn't it uncomfortable to hold your thigh?"
Xu Tong put his hands in his pockets and asked with a carefree expression.
Sanggou frowned: "I advise you to give up this idea. The team's gameplay is different from ours. They can be more radical than us, and they can exchange information and scripts with each other, and even..."
Sanggou didn't continue talking at this point, but just looked at him coldly: "Anyway, just take care of yourself."
After saying that, the mourning dog opened the door next to him and stepped in.
Looking at the mourning dog disappearing through the door, Xu Tong couldn't help but narrowed his eyelids.
At this moment, the host in front of him walked up behind him without knowing it. He lightly covered his face with his fan and whispered in Xu Tong's ear: "Handsome guy, I'm giving you a friendly reminder, be careful of the ghost behind you!"
After saying that, the woman pushed forward. The huge force did not allow him to resist at all, and her body was pushed directly into the door.
"boom!"
With the sound of the door closing, the eyes suddenly fell into a suffocating darkness,
Suddenly, a little light flickered in the dark room. He looked carefully and saw a bright light that seemed to be shining from a very far away place.
And the light is getting closer and closer to the careful side.
Looking at the approaching lights, he squinted his eyes and took a closer look.
"Woo!!!"
A vague outline in the darkness gradually became clear under the light. Looking at the huge thing that suddenly appeared in front of him, Xu Tong squinted his eyes, silently took out a non-existent cigarette from his arms, and took a deep breath into the air: "Hiss~ ~~Huh~~~It’s finished!”
The moment he finished speaking, a huge train quickly pierced through the darkness.
The first volume is finished, and the second volume is about to begin. I will update it temporarily today, and I will review the story of the new copy.
