【Reboot Volume】 Chapter 201 A Huge Sum of Money!
J City, G Province.
"How's it going? Isn't my Shadow Elf 5 very comfortable to operate?"
A shirtless little fat man quickly manipulated the game's characters with both hands, and the sound of a mechanical keyboard percussion resounded throughout the bedroom. The cool, glowing OMEN 5 notebook on the table was like a red flower emerging from the grass on half of the red brick walls and hard cement floor. Mo Xing, who was sitting next to him, was a native of this town, and he operated the game character with heavy hands and feet.
Mo Xing and the little fat man grew up together, and they had a very iron relationship, and they once stole a lychee from the old Wang's family next door. It's just that when he was in junior high school, the little fat man was taken to school in a big city by his parents because of family factors, and the two rarely saw each other several times a year.
During the summer vacation, the little fat man followed his parents back to the countryside to visit relatives, and he also brought his game book back by the way to play with Mo Xing.
"Uh-huh. Mo Xing replied shyly, pointing to the fan, "Do you want to turn on the wind a little stronger?"
"Hey, don't get distracted!"
Before Mo Xing could react, the character on the computer screen was defeated.
"Oops, lost again!" the little fat man touched the sweat on his head and said with some complaints, "Oh my God, I'm stuck in this level again! It's the third time today, can you focus?"
"Sorry, sorry, my pot. Mo Xing lowered his head embarrassedly, "Let's play another game, Yi Zai." ”
"It's okay, it's okay, I also have a pot, don't worry about it. Yi Zai found that his tone was a little heavy, and quickly apologized, "Don't fight yet, let's go outside to breathe, and go eat ice cream by the way." ”
"Okay. Mo Xing saw that his friend was not angry, and his mood was a little better.
... ...
"This sun is really dry!" Yi Zai, who was walking on the road, suddenly complained, the sun above his head was so hot that he almost peeled off his skin.
"It's okay, there are still quite a few people working in the fields in this weather. Mo Xing looked at the old man working in the field next to him for a while, the other party was wearing a shabby straw hat on his head and driving the cattle with a stick.
"Mo Xing, it's not right for you to think so! The losses that the older generation has suffered, the people of our generation can't eat anymore!" Yi Zai paused and continued, "It's like in the game, those pioneers can only clear the level after repeated failures, and we can save a lot of time and effort to win the boss as long as we follow the strategy to avoid the minefield!"
"Uh... I don't really understand what you mean by the second half of your sentence..."Mo Xing scratched his head and expressed puzzlement.
"What I mean is that you should broaden your horizons, don't always think about staying in the countryside and working as a coolie, and young people should go to the city more often. Yi Tsai smiled, "It's more suitable for us!"
"But... The work in the old family needs to be passed on by future generations!" Mo Xing explained.
"What is the inheritance? The economic foundation determines the superstructure, and you can't make any money, how can you talk about inheritance?" Yi Zai frowned.
"This..."Mo Xing didn't know what to say for a while.
"Don't you think money matters?" Yi Tsai asked, "You have been saving money for the past few years, right?"
"Yes..."Mo Xing lowered his tone, "In order to see my father, I have been saving again..."
"300,000, when do you have to save?" Yi Tsai shook his head.
"I don't know..."Mo Xing's voice was as thin as a mosquito fly, when he was seven years old, his father left his family and left D City, except for sending back a letter and a sum of money every year to report safety, he never returned to his hometown at all.
Mo Xing learned in an unintentional eavesdrop that he could only meet his father if he had collected 300,000 yuan, so he developed the habit of saving money from then on, relying on the stalls to sell eggs and the New Year's money given by the elders, he has saved a little in the past few years, but it is far from enough.
300,000 is indeed a huge amount of money.
"I'll tell you the truth!" Yi Zai smiled slightly, "One of my favorite games has opened a summer vacation event, as long as you follow the process to complete the designated tasks and become the first place in the whole server leaderboard, you can get 300,000 cash and gifts!"
"What! really fake?" Mo Xing's eyes widened, it was the first time he had heard that a game event could reward so much money!
"Of course it's true!How about it??," Yi Zai raised an eyebrow.
"Hmm... It's really a little..."Mo Xing's happy expression immediately turned gray again, "But there are so many players in a game, and it is more difficult to get the first place in the whole server than to win the lottery..."
"It's okay!" Yi Zai patted his chest and said confidently, "I'm an insider player of that game, and I'm also the highest-level VIP, plus the veterans of my Incineration Clan, it's absolutely no problem to make you the number one!"
"It's... Is it so powerful?" Mo Xing still couldn't believe it, he knew that Yi Zai liked to recharge games, but the first place in the whole server of a game did not only rely on recharge, but also technology, equipment and others...
"Oh! Why are you lying to you!, we're friends!" Yi Tsai patted Mo Xing on the shoulder, "Please trust me! I will do my best to help you!"
"Okay...," Mo Xing scratched his head, "What's that game called?"
"No hurry! we'll talk when we buy ice cream!" Yi Zai smiled.
... ...
For a moment, next to the commissary.
"I said boss, why are you selling this ice cream so expensive?" Yi Tsai questioned the owner of the snack shop: "The market price of the same kind of ice cream is 3 yuan a piece, how can you sell it for 5 yuan here?"
"I said this little handsome guy, you don't know the market, these years the inspection is strict, and many unqualified factories have closed down. The boss showed his big white teeth and said with a smile, "You see that our store is in this kind of location, and the business is really not good, you are from the city, you should know what it means to be scarce." ”
"You're cheating consumers, I'm going to complain about you!" Yi Zai frowned and said angrily.
"Forget it, forget it. Mo Xing went up and stopped in front of Yi Zai, and said in an authentic local dialect, "I bought these two ice creams." After that, he immediately stuffed a few pieces of paper money and a few five-dime coins in the boss's hand, which should have been found from his pocket when the two were quarreling.
"Uh-huh, yes, it's the real thing. The boss got the money, pushed his glasses, looked at the banknotes from different angles, and quickly laughed, "It's still this little brother who is generous." ”
The two of them walked by the river.
"What do you think, this is obviously a pit man, are you still willing to buy it?" Yi Tsai complained as he ate ice cream.
"This is the only one in this town that sells ice cream," Mo Xing said with a wry smile, "There is no way to do it on this hot day, you always have to eat it." ”
"If you dare to sell like this in the city, you have to fill their house with complaint letters. Yi Tsai paused, and took out a delicate bracelet from his trouser pocket, with a golden dragon pattern on it, and a sparkling blue-white gemstone carved in the middle.
"It's... What is this?" Mo Xing was stabbed in the eye by the reflection of the bracelet and covered it with his hand.
"It's nothing, it's just to buy a computer and send it, listen to what the salesman said about the warranty and inspection to ensure safety, in short, there are two, give you one as a gift. Yi Zai said meaningfully, his eyes skimming slightly.
"Okay, thank you. Mo Xing took the bracelet, looked at it for a while, and put it on. The bracelet is just the right size, as if it were tailor-made.
"Thank you, thank you, we're friends..."Before Yi Zai finished speaking, a burst of thunder thundered down, and the sky was instantly covered with dark clouds.
"It's raining hard, you two hurry out of Heti!" the villagers shouted in the distance.
"Let's go, hurry up and find a shelter from the rain!" There was a sensation, and the thunder covered Yi Zai's voice again, and the rain poured down.
"Over there. Mo Xing pointed to the abandoned grass hut not far from the left front.
"No, the geology is too bad over there, there is too little vegetation, and it is easy to be washed away by heavy rains. There was a sensation, and the thunder swallowed Yi Zai's voice again.
Seeing that the two of them were about to be drenched in soup, Mo Xing shouted, "Climb up first, the river is going to rise!"
"You go up first!" yelled.
"No, you first!" Mo Xing said.
The thunder resounded through the field again, and the voices of the two men were drowned out again.
Mo Xing paused for a moment, thinking that there was no way to fight, so he climbed to a high place with both feet and hands, and then stretched out his hand: "Give it to me quickly!"
Yi Zai stretched out his hand, and with the help of Mo Xing's pull, he also climbed up.
When he came to the hut and looked at the pouring rain outside, Yi Tsai twisted the water out of his clothes and said, "This weather is too bad! Why did this rain fall so suddenly?"
"I've lived here for so long, and it's the first time I've seen such unusual weather. Mo Xing frowned.
"The geology here is so bad that I can't stay long. Yat Tsai looked at his surroundings.
"Look closely, there seems to be some sound..."Mo Xing's brows furrowed even tighter.
There was a sensation, and the moment the thunder sounded, the soil under Yi Zai's feet collapsed, and the whole person was about to fall into the river!
"Be careful!" Mo Xing grabbed Yi Zai's hand, but because Yi Zai was too heavy, one piece was pulled into the river instead.
"Whew!"
No matter how skilled a sailor is, there are storms that he can't afford to toss, let alone two children.
There was no room for struggle, and the two were suddenly overwhelmed by the merciless flood.
... ...
"Hmm..."
Mo Xing slowly opened his eyes, the sky was still raining heavily, his clothes were already soaked, and he was lying in the mud. He covered his aching head, got up, looked around, it was not the village he was familiar with, what happened when he fell into the river, he couldn't remember it at all, only that the raging flood swallowed him up, his mouth was directly irrigated by the river, and he quickly lost consciousness.
An inexplicable emptiness and fear welled up in my heart.
What is this?!!!

Adding back the content that was not added before, a lot of details have been added, and the whole story has been improved, and there may be some repetitions, and I hope you will include and support it a lot.
