The evening talks began as scheduled.

Zhu Jue changed into a gray robe common for so-called hermits, except that there was no magic staff, let alone a glowing long sword.

I also didn't put a beard on my chin.

"You have to try to be as mysterious as possible, like being silent most of the time, the gentleman hasn't used a voice changer before, and if you say too much, it will arouse suspicion. ”

Lishana said some details that needed attention, and she was still in good spirits after nearly an afternoon of guarding the door.

"Please give me a hint when you're ready. ”

Lisana stood aside, also changing into a simple robe, holding the remote control in her hand.

Zhu Jue nodded and signaled that he could start.

Drip~

A slight communication connection is successful.

There was a light screen unfolding in front of him, and Zhu Jue's gaze first turned around the environment around the screen, and then stopped at the middle-aged Asian man sitting on the sofa in the center.

Hair is thick, normal figure, hands on laps, there is still wine on the low table in front of him, there is a slight residue in the cup next to him, he should have just drunk it, obviously a little nervous about seeing Zhu Jue alone.

Compared to Westerners, who believe in God or other gods and emphasize pure beliefs, Asians are always interested in all kinds of strange things, they may not have much faith, but they are quite superstitious in some things, and even regard them as traditions, that is, things that must be respected under normal circumstances.

Because of this, when Zhu Jue looked at the list of clubs created by gentlemen, this part of the people accounted for about half of the total, and they were also the ones who were most willing to spend money.

"It is an honor to meet you, Mr. Monk. ”

Seeing Zhu Jue's first glance, the man hurriedly got up and bowed very respectfully.

In the eyes of these people in the club, the monk with mysterious power undoubtedly has a high status, so the attitude of this middle-aged man is very low.

"Mr. Feng, how is your cultivation going?"

There was no rush to ask about the killing game, Zhu Jue put the topic on the other party's practice.

Feng Shaojie, director of Mingyu Group, joined the club for half a year......

Zhu Jue had already read his information.

"Ah...... In fact, I have a lot of experience in this regard recently, the moonshine you once gave me is the only drink I have now, and every time I drink it, I can feel the sublimation of my soul, and then I can do the meditation you taught us, which really makes my spirit very ...... Sensitive, forgive my agitation, that feeling has rarely come to my mind since I was 35 years old, as if I could see through everything and no longer burdened me with heavy tasks. ”

When it comes to cultivation, Feng Shaojie mentions his recent harvest with some excitement.

Money can buy many things in this era, but the meditation method from the dream realm can bring people real spiritual tranquility, and these middle-aged people who have been in the capitalist society for decades will inevitably fall in love with this feeling when they first start to meditate.

This was expected, and Zhu Jue just bowed his head in affirmation.

"It seems that Mr. Feng also has a talent for cultivation, and it just so happens that I have prepared a gift for you as a reward for your help to me. ”

The remaining honey-colored gem that he used before flew in front of the screen from the side, and rotated several times around Zhu Jue's palm that was not wearing any equipment, and then stopped on his hand,

"Please wear this gemstone on your wrist or neck, and nourish it with mental energy every day, I believe you will make new discoveries. ”

didn't give the other party a chance to make conditions, Zhu Jue directly showed his hand and gave his own reward.

If in the past, when a gentleman dealt with these people, he still needed to deliberately hide his ability, then now, as a true soul liberator, in a sense, Zhu Jue is actually more in line with the abilities that these people imagine a mysterious monk should have.

Just like now, what is difficult for a gentleman to do is a gesture for Zhu Jue, just showing his hand casually, and the Mr. Feng on the other side of the screen has a look of surprise and admiration on his face, and he doesn't even dare to say a "no" to Zhu Jue's decision, let alone bargain.

"The killing game you mentioned is actually a very popular competitive game among the high-level community in Thousand Sails City. ”

After being rewarded, Feng Shaojie knew that it was his turn to show sincerity, and took the initiative to speak.

"A competitive game in Thousand Sails City?"

Zhu Jue frowned, his upper body turned slightly at an angle, and gave a look to Lishana next to him, who took a step back, left the screen range, and turned to the living room directly opposite Zhu Jue, and began to search for information about this.

After a while, he got up and shook his head, indicating that he couldn't find any relevant information on the Internet.

"Yes, it was about half a month ago that I went to Thousand Sails City to meet with a partner for business issues, which happened to be the beginning of this game...... I still remember the scene, we put on some kind of helmet device, and then our consciousness appeared on a huge viewing platform, not the usual game stands, but a very versatile trading platform, where you could see a lot of things, all kinds of dirty scenes, battles, killings...... I must first state that I have no interest in these acts, and that I have to accompany my friend for work reasons. ”

Perhaps because he was worried that the monk would misunderstand that he was an evil and dirty person at heart, Feng Shaojie also specially explained for himself.

As for whether the friend he spoke of was himself or not, it is debatable.

"Just a spectator?"

With modern technology, it is not difficult to make this kind of scene, it is nothing more than an immersive VR experience, something that has been popularized decades ago, but now it is regarded as one of the special hospitality services among the rich, Zhu Jue does not believe that they just go in and have a look.

"There's gambling here, and there's 50 or more players in the game, and they call them 'volunteers' and we're 'players'.

The contestants were gathered in one place, I'm not sure where, but judging by the surroundings, it should be inferior...... Where the low-level civilians live, all contestants are required to kill within a limited time, with only a few surviving to the end, while spectators place bets based on the contestants' performance, ranging from tens of thousands to millions. ”

"I have the impression that there seem to be other options besides gambling, one of which is to pay a certain fee, and the 'player' can also participate in the game in some way, without any responsibility, without any rules, and do whatever he wants for a certain period of time. ”

In order to gain the favor of the monk, Feng Shaojie recalled everything he saw, but Zhu Jue was more and more shocked when he listened.

The so-called "volunteers", that is, volunteers, are undoubtedly "murderers" who appeared all over the world during this time, and this part of the content is also mentioned in the audio recordings held by the Righteous League.

It's just that in the content mentioned by Feng Shaojie, there is no theory about the advent of external consciousness, or similar to the "brain in a jar" mentioned by Suzi.

Because Feng Shaojie has not participated many times, he doesn't know about these insider stories, or is someone deliberately hiding this part of the content?

In the past, Zhu Jue often dealt with all kinds of monsters from the source of spiritual pollution, horror is horror, but the nature is still human beings against monsters in the final analysis.

Under such a premise, Zhu Jue doesn't need to do too much thinking about good and evil morality, just do it directly in the face of these indescribable monsters, and most of the occasional exchanges with humans are against the abnormal bureau or archaeological association of the monsters of the spiritual pollution source, and the scope always revolves around the monsters of the spiritual pollution source.

It is precisely because of this that Zhu Jue, who is busy dealing with the monsters of spiritual pollution sources, rarely comes into contact with some dark forces on the human side, and "zero" is counted as one, but it is a cult organization that is biased towards religion, and it is not pure.

And Feng Shaojie's words undoubtedly revealed to Zhu Jue a dark corner of the human world in this era.
