Chapter 4: Spooky Terminals

Su suddenly noticed that there was a light source next to him, and it seemed to be from the palm of his hand, which made him strangely lift his hand from the ground, and then his expression was shocked.

At this time, he realized that the piece of iron he picked up at random was actually a strange mobile phone that Grandma Luo received, to be precise, it was a 'mobile phone button mold', and he used it to beat Fat Dafu to the point that his nose was bleeding.

But its hardness was not the reason why Sue was most surprised, what really surprised him was that the oval 'power button' on the right side of the mold actually lit up red at this time.

Wasn't this picked up by Grandma Luo's husband in '98? Even if it's really a weird-looking phone, there's no way it will still have a power supply, right? After all, more than ten or twenty years have passed.

However, what surprised him even more was that he only felt a slight tremor in his palm, and the bezel part of the top of the model was ejected, and it turned out to be a transparent crystal screen with a size of about 4 inches.

Sci-fi, cool, beautiful.

But Su couldn't figure it out the most. Let's not mention whether there have been mobile phones with ejection screens in this world, in 98, the number of mobile phones in Chinese mainland was extremely small, and they were all black and white screens, and even the type of pager big brother. And the one in front of me is cooler than the current product, and the display effect is higher, incomparably bright and clear.

"Could it be that Grandma Luo is mistaken? No, Grandma Luo was very impressed with this incident and can't be mistaken. Su made the most assumptions, but quickly overturned them.

Misremembering the year? It's 08, not 98. But this conjecture was immediately overturned by Su Zhi. In 08, mobile phones were already very popular, not to mention that the old man died in 09, and in 08, he was too old to run around.

Very suddenly, Su realized that this thing was not simple, and glanced around vigilantly, seeing that there was no second person in the darkness everywhere, he hurriedly got up from the ground, and regardless of the books scattered on the road, he took out the key to open the door and ran home.

In the room, Su picked up the phone with the utmost heart and held it with both hands. When it comes back, the screen is off, and the screen automatically retracts back into the original mold.

Su suddenly worried that what he had seen before was just an illusion, and pressed his finger to the power button tremblingly. I remember when I turned it on just now, it was because my thumb was pressed in this position, and my thumb was scratched and bloody......

"Blood!" Sue thought of this crucial thing the most.

If you can turn it on just by pressing the power button, Grandma Luo and her husband turned it on at the beginning, and the red power button design is conspicuous, and there is no reason not to press it in your hand.

Sure enough, as he pressed his thumb down the power button, the power button lit up, and the screen was automatically ejected.

It seems that blood is the key to unlocking it, is it DNA? Although it is strange, it should be like this, although Grandma Luo's family has been getting it for nearly twenty years, they don't know that blood is the secret to opening it, if it weren't for the fat boss coming over to insult and provoke, Su Shi also sold it as scrap metal.

Speaking of which, don't you still have to be grateful to the fat boss? This thought made Sue feel the most awkward.

"Regardless of that, the most important thing is to see what it does." Su most retracted all kinds of chaotic thoughts such as excitement and apprehension in his heart, and put his mind back to the real world.

There are two columns on the first-level menu on the home page of the screen, which show the time, 22:40, the exact time at the moment. Automatic network alignment? Where did the network come from.

Below you will find Contacts, Texts, Calls, and all the apps. In the upper column, there are four icons: Settings, Theme Style, App Store, and My Terminal.

This looks like an ordinary mobile phone, and Su is inevitably a little lost in his heart. But he still has a lot of doubts that can't be solved, so he still has some thoughts.

He tried to make a call, typed his mobile phone number into the keypad, and finally pressed the dial button.

This kind of behavior is undoubtedly a bit delusional, after all, there is no telecom tariff card in the mobile phone, and there is no network signal, how can it be possible to dial the phone......

"Didi, Didi......"

There was a vibration in his pocket, and Nokia's classic ringtone, one light and one heavy, lingered in the living room, but it made Su feel a little gloomy the most, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva twice. When I took the Nokia phone out of my pocket, it did show the caller interface, but the caller ID was 'unknown number'.

Under the ghost's mission, Su Shi pressed the connection, and then put Nokia to his mouth and called: "Hey? ”

"Hello?"

The same sound came from the earpiece of the mysterious phone, and it was very clear, as if there was a self by his side.

Uncanny! Su could only find such a descriptive word, but it was very apt. The function of this mysterious mobile phone is completely contrary to common sense, but it does happen in front of my eyes, and I can't let myself question it.

Incomprehensible.

SMS and contacts are currently empty,After opening and seeing, Su quit,'All Applications' is a secondary menu,Su is not in a hurry to open it,Just put your eyes on the icon in the upper column。

'Theme Style'

Su has played with smartphones the most and knows that the so-called theme is to display icons, wallpapers, etc. to change settings. But this phone doesn't seem to be like this, it only shows a variety of sample pictures of mobile phones, watches, bracelets, glasses, and even tablets, laptops, and so on.

However, most of these themes are charged, except for the current default, only a clumsy looking laptop, plus a simple feature phone is a free theme.

"It won't be ......" Thinking of a possibility, Su Zhi's eyes widened, a little incredulous, but he still chose the option of the notebook, and then clicked confirm.

Duang's hand, Su felt a sinking in his hand, and what he had in his hand was no longer a mobile phone, but a laptop that was not beautiful or even clumsy, just like in the theme.

If the matter of the toll-free phone can still make him have many suspicions, then this scene now confirms the fact that this thing is a treasure. It's not an ordinary baby, it's ...... All in all, it's really extraordinary.

Su Zhi's brain was already in chaos.

This can no longer be explained by cognition, and science is even weaker in front of it. Even if Su is the most unheard, he understands that this is an impossible thing, but it really happened, it really happened.

Then Su tried to set it as a theme for a feature phone, and the laptop suddenly became an ordinary mobile phone, with a slightly different operation interface, but the function did not change at all. For other topics, there is a separate charge.

The currency is called merit coins.

Su didn't understand what this merit coin was, so he didn't dare to try it lightly, and returned to the homepage after setting it back to the default theme.

But Su was still in a daze, and the qiē just now gave him too much shock. The phone is just a styling of it, or even just a theme, but it's not just a phone.

'App Store'

The so-called app store,It should refer to a platform that downloads the application software suitable for the machine.,The application in the current term is APP.,I don't know what kind of application can be downloaded in it.。

The response is fast and one click away. There are no cumbersome categories, only two columns appear, the current display is 'Free' and the second column is 'Charged'. It's easy to understand that one is a free app and the other is a payable app to download.

In the free section, there is currently only one app available for download, which is 'Weather', and when opened, there is a description: forecasting the weather conditions of the environment in which the terminal is located, and can accurately predict the number of 3 days (72 hours).

"Weather forecast?" Su scratched her hair the most, and her first feeling was chicken ribs. There are so many weather forecasts nowadays, and you don't have to check the weather forecast all the time when you go out. But there is only one free app, and Su seems to have no second option, so he confirms the download.

The download speed is very fast, it takes two seconds, and then it is automatically installed, and when it is done, a pop-up window asks if it is opened.

The interface of the weather is a curve graph, the content is clear at a glance, the horizontal side is the time axis, the straight side is the large and small axis, but the current forecast has more than one curve, which is temperature, wind, thunder and lightning, and rainfall. These are all easy to understand, but what makes Su feel most incredible is that this time is accurate to the minute.

For example, the curve that represents the amount of rainfall will start to rain lightly at 23:14 today, and the curve will gradually increase, and the high and low will continue until tomorrow afternoon. There is also thunder and lightning, which will last for five minutes and then the lightning will disappear.

"It can't be such an exaggeration, can it?" Su felt incredible, the current weather forecast is only an approximation, how can it be predicted so accurately, even the real-time data of the weather satellite station can't do so!

Now the time is already 23:10, and Su decided to wait and see.

Four minutes passed in a blink of an eye, and the time was already 23:14, but Su Zhi couldn't hear the sound of rain outside, which made his heart sink, anxious and disappointed. But he couldn't accept it, put on his slippers and hurried to the balcony.

At this time, a white light flashed from the sky, and just a second after Su was stunned, there was a rumbling sound in the sky.

The intensity of the lightning is not high, but the shock it brought to Su is unprecedented.

When the thunder flashed, Su saw it clearly, it was already raining in the sky, but it was a little small, hazy spring rain, so he didn't hear the sound of rain just now. At the same time, there was also thunder, and the weather conditions predicted in the software were fully realized.

"Incredible." Su was most careful and his liver was pounding, and another flash of thunder fell, and at the same time, a gust of wind blew the rain in, and the cool feeling made his body feel excited, and then he hurriedly said: "It's not good, my scrap!" ”

After putting things away, Su Zhi picked up the phone again. He is very much looking forward to what other powerful applications there will be besides weather forecasting software. There is no free one, and the fee is acceptable, as long as it is practical.

"Difu" 10,000 merit coins.

"Heavenly Court" 10,000 merit coins......

These two APPs are a little confusing, click on the 'Heavenly Court' and take a look, the introduction is still short, but it makes Su's eyelids tighten: the official platform of Heavenly Court.

The profile of 'Difu' is similar: the official platform of Difu.

Su suddenly felt that this thing was a little hot. Before trying the weather forecast, he might still think that the introduction of these two APPs is a cheating of the stream, the official platform of Heaven and Earth? Does it mean that you can send heavenly soldiers and generals and summon ghosts? This is an exaggeration.

But after trying the weather forecast, he felt that it could, should, probably be true.

Click to download, and the result will pop up like this: Your current merit coins are 75, and your balance is not enough to purchase this app, please refer to 'My Terminal' for details.

A basin of cold water was poured on the top of Su Shi's head, there will be no pie in the world, and there will be no free lunch, and the balance of merit coins is 75, which is still too far away from 10,000.

At the same time, Su also remembered that there was an icon called 'My Terminal' on the desktop menu, so he quickly quit the app store and clicked to enter My Terminal.

Profile: Su most; Man; Born on August 14, 1995; Died November 3, 2085.

My wallet: 75 merit coins.

Terminal version: 1.0.

Su felt a little dry in his throat and feared in his heart. Not only does this thing know his name and birthdate, but it also knows how long his life expectancy is, which can no longer be described as magical, and it is even more weird.

"2085? Doesn't that mean you have 70 years to live? Knowing his lifespan gave Su the most strange feeling.

In addition to the personal information, there is also a 'My Wallet' underneath, Merit Coins: 75. Once opened, there is also an option below for "Record" and "Top-up".

The 'records' show the number jù, which recounts the detailed records in flashback order, such as the first one: 22:15 on April 11, 2015, -1.

"I didn't even know it was a mobile phone at this time, so how could there be a consumption record?" Su's heart tightened.

22:15.

Seriously recall, it should have been fighting with the fat boss at that time. Fight...... Su Shi suddenly seemed to understand something, this merit value is not a virtual currency, but has a direct relationship with reality, good deeds can accumulate merit, bad behavior will be deducted merit coins, this record is not only the consumption record of this terminal, including reality.

As long as it's not a malicious deduction! Now that we know that our daily actions can increase our merit points, we should be careful in the future, and if we allow, accumulate more blessings and do good deeds.

"How do I top up?" Su is more curious about this now, and when he clicked on it, his heart was tight, and his scalp was numb. In addition to doing good deeds and accumulating virtue in daily life, there is only one way to directly recharge - life expectancy.

Su tried it the most, and when he entered the recharge of 10,000 merit coins, the corresponding price automatically popped up behind it was 100 years of life, and the recharge button turned gray. Because he only has a total of 70 years left in his lifespan, he naturally can't recharge it.

Merit is a common currency, and lifespan can be exchanged for huàn, which ...... What the hell is this thing?
