Chapter 2: Upgraded
Player: Xu Jie
Level: 0
Attributes: 27 Strength, 30 Stamina, 34 Agility, 35 Intelligence, 41 Spirit.
HP: 10 points.
This is the data that Xu Jie saw at this time.
Xu Jie, who went home to recuperate, did not go to class or set up a stall, so it was rare to be able to relax, so he quietly studied the so-called game system. After three hours of unremitting research, he finally got acquainted with this strange system.
Every time Xu Jie says the term "handheld game console", the system will appear, and at the same time, Xu Jie's body will be digitized. However, Xu Jie found that this dataization was very targeted, and it seemed to be only effective for him alone. To put it simply, it is only for Xu Jie alone, and the game system cannot play the slightest role in Xu Dashan and Xu Xin.
This made Xu Jie breathe a sigh of relief.
He didn't know what the system would do to him, but he instinctively felt that the fewer people involved, the better. Even if something happens to the game system in the future, it's just a problem with him, and it won't implicate the two closest relatives.
After Xu Jie studied for a while, he suddenly sighed: "It's just that this summoning procedure is a bit cumbersome, if it can be shortened a little, it can also be emergency if there is an incident." ”
The mechanical synthesizer immediately responded:
"Ding, the player asks to change the summoning codename, and the player is asked to issue specific instructions. ”
Xu Jie, who was already quite immune to this emotionless system voice, determined the most convenient and convenient name to remember after just a thought:
System.
Yes, it's so vulgar that it can't be vulgar, but it's the easiest name to remember.
Xu Jie also fantasized that the system would appear in front of him as a super invincible beautiful girl in the universe, even if it was the image of a person. It's a pity that the system will always have only one voice, a cold and ruthless mechanical sound, leaving no suspense.
Instead of being embarrassed, it is better to just give it a more fictitious name and fix its image.
After dealing with the problems of the system, Xu Jie began to plan for his future. Don't look at him as thin and young, he doesn't look much old, but in fact, he is already a senior in high school who is about to take the college entrance examination and has received an ID card.
Now that you are an adult, you have to take responsibility for what you do, and you have to plan for the future of yourself and your family. Xu Jie is now thinking about how to use this game system to quickly improve the increasingly difficult family economy.
"I heard that the salary of bodyguards is very high now!"
Xu Jie immediately thought of a possibility, but then he vetoed it, leaving only a helpless wry smile: "If this is really a game, then I can fight monsters and upgrade, and then create a great cause with superior strength." But this is the real world, where can I find monster killing?"
Between the whispers, Xu Xin in the kitchen shouted: "Brother, can you help me buy salt? ”
"Ding, quest reminder: Do you want to help your sister Xu Xin buy salt? ”
When Xu Jie received this reminder, he was shaken all over his body, and after answering loudly "yes", he rushed out of the door.
It's not that Xu Jie is stupid, but he was stimulated. You must know that Xu Jie only needs 10 points of experience to upgrade his level to level 1, and now a simple errand task can complete 1/10 of the progress, and Xu Jie will not refuse no matter what.
Xu Jie's home is in the LC area, which is about to be renovated, densely populated, and there are many kiosks, and Xu Jie only took five minutes to complete the round-trip.
"Give!"
"Ding, congratulations to the player for completing the quest and gaining 1 experience. ”
When Xu Jie heard the crisp system prompt, he didn't mention how happy he was. Facts have proved that Xu Jie no longer has to worry about experience, he can completely upgrade by brushing tasks.
A small formation.
Xu Xin looked at the soup base and asked in wonder: "Brother, just let me come to the kitchen, you can go back and wait for dinner." ”
Xu Jie asked with a smile: "Xiao Xin, brother is bored and panicked, see if you have anything for me to do." ”
Xu Xin smiled bitterly.
Xu Jie was born to work hard.
In Xu Xin's memory, his brother Xu Jie is always in a busy state, either practicing carving or going out to set up a stall. When I was young, I helped with housework, and when I was a little older, I was my father's hand, and now I simply take my father's works to the antique street to sell them, and I hardly have to rest.
At this time, Xu Dashan shouted in the workshop: "Xiaojie, if you are really bored, come and help your father complete a few processes." ”
"Good!"
Xu Jie, who received the system prompt again, smiled happily and ran into Xu Dashan's workshop happily.
The so-called workshop is just a small room of ten square meters. However, although the space is small, the utilization rate is extremely high. From the small inventory loft above your head to the little space under the work desk, all of them are densely packed and not wasted at all.
The indoor temperature in the summer is more than the street outside, and in the winter it is shivering, and the working environment is not bad.
But Xu Dashan was in this harsh place and raised Xu Jie and Xu Xin by force.
"Dad!"
Xu Jie saw Xu Dashan's trembling right hand, and his heart stabbed, and he hurriedly picked up the carving knife, preparing to complete the last few processes that Xu Dashan couldn't complete.
Yes, Xu Dashan's right hand is useless, and it was artificially disabled.
All the things that happened on that bloody and betrayal night are still fresh in Xu Jie's memory. Xu Jie once swore that as long as he was capable, no matter how long it was, he would make everyone who hurt Xu Dashan and the Xu family that night pay the price of remorse for the rest of their lives.
Xu Dashan looked at Xu Jie's knife and nodded with satisfaction: "Xiaojie, your knife skills are becoming more and more mature." It is estimated that it will not be long before he surpasses his father and becomes a nationally famous wood carver. ”
Xu Jie replied: "Dad, I don't want to be a wood carver. ”
Ten years ago, Xu Dashan was not a wood carver, carving was just his hobby, and his real identity was a famous treasure connoisseur who was well-known in China. But just one mistake full of conspiracy not only buried the reputation that Xu Dashan had accumulated for more than ten years, but even dragged the Xu family to the brink of bankruptcy. With Xu Dashan's strong knowledge and solid professional skills, there is definitely a comeback moment, but on the night of the mistake, the creditors broke in, not only snatching the Xu family's things unscrupulously, but also taking away Xu Dashan's right hand.
If it weren't for Xu Dashan's strong will, he would have practiced his left hand in the shortest possible time, so that the Xu family could regain the capital to survive.
Every time he thinks of these things, Xu Jie's heart is dripping blood. Being a woodcarver can only make a small profit, even if you become a woodcarver master, that is, an artist with a little influence and money, if you want to take revenge on those enemies who have become famous, I am afraid it is still a fool's dream.
Xu Dashan was furious when he heard Xu Jie's unreserved refusal, but then he was relieved and said in a sighing tone: "Xiaojie, Dad will not interfere with your choice, I just hope you will not be blinded by hatred." ”
Xu Jie smiled leisurely, handed back the wood carving he had just carved to his father, and replied: "Father, don't worry, your son has a clear goal, his mind is full of money, and he will not act excessively." ”
Xu Dashan took the wood carving in his mouth, and after a cursory look, the bitterness in his eyes became even thicker. But he respected Xu Jie's decision, got up and said, "Xiaojie, let's eat first and then come back to carve, and we are not in a hurry at this time." ”
Xu Jie replied: "It's not so bad. ”
Xu Dashan is not in a hurry, but Xu Jie is in a hurry.
The task he received was to help Xu Dashan carve a wood carving artwork to get 1 point of experience, which was more comfortable than an ordinary errand task, how could Xu Jie miss it.
Xu Jie pinched the carving knife with skillful strength, and used the most familiar "Yin carving knife" to make the final mending knife on Xu Dashan's semi-finished artwork.
I have to say that Xu Dashan's regret is justified.
Xu Jie's knife skills are staggered, the lines are smooth, never dragging mud and water, and the sense of rhythm is very strong, and he will definitely be a rare wood carving master over time.
It's a pity that Xu Jiezhi is not here.
Long.
With a crisp system reminder sounding, Xu Jie received the coveted upgrade prompt, and hurriedly read the relevant information:
"Ding, congratulations to the player for completing the mission. This is because the player completes a total of 13 wood carvings and earns 13 XP. ”
"Ding, congratulations to the player for leveling up, increasing all attributes by 1 point, and getting 1 free attribute point and 1 storage space. ”
"Ding, the game is entered into the engraving system. Because the player is born with excellent wood carving skills, the system corrects the player's attributes. Currently, the player has the rank of Intermediate Carver (99.99%), as well as the combat skill - Basic Knife Skills (level 19). ”
Looking at a series of unbelievable data, Xu Jie's mouth was wide open, and his head couldn't turn at all.
"Brother, it's time to eat!"
"Xiaojie, it's time to start!"
"Good!"
Xu Jie, who was recalled to his senses, didn't care about it for the time being, and solved the stomach problem first.
