Chapter 4: The Smoker
The guest was unkempt, draped in a crumpled and outdated trench coat, a pair of white-washed and frayed jeans, and a pair of yellowed, dull leather boots. What is striking is his big head, the hair on the back of his head is unkempt, and his head seems to be full of whimsy, and the whole person looks like a down-and-out artist.
This guest heard that the air was fresh in Longmu Mountain, so he came to spend a few days off, and the guest room he stayed in was called "Biying".
The family on the ridge has opened 18 guest rooms, corresponding to the 18 pools and waterfalls of the Longmu Mountain Grand Canyon. The names of the guest rooms are ingenious, and the names of the eighteen pools are compared in turn. As the name suggests, Biying is the second of the eighteen pools.
Although the Lingshang family is a farm-style homestay, it has introduced the most fashionable electronic products.
A highly intelligent LED screen is installed in the lobby and in each guest room, which supports VR (virtual reality) operation, and the 720-degree surround view effect makes people immersive.
As early as the trial operation period, in March, a professional 3D photography team was invited to produce a high-definition VR based on the real scene of Longmu Mountain, and the beautiful natural scenery of Longmu Mountain was displayed in front of the world through a high-intelligence LED video. Guests only need to touch the screen and swipe their fingers, without leaving the people on the mountain, they can freely shuttle between the Grand Canyon, Eighteen Ponds, Taodu Ridge Ancient Road, Ten Mile Taoyuan and other scenic spots.
The guests in Biying's room watched the VR of Longmu Mountain that night, and they were full of praise, excited like children, and suddenly became obsessed with the graceful and graceful peach blossoms that were like the morning glow.
Early the next morning, the guest got up and went to Longmu Mountain, and did not return to his house on the ridge until dark, bringing back a few small and delicate crystal clear stream stones.
The guest was enthusiastic and told the waitress Xiao Ding about the time he spent in the Eighteen Ponds one day:
In fact, he only climbed to the relatively flat Biying Pond. Because I lived in Biying last night, I love the house and Wu, and I like Biying Pond.
Biying Lake highlights a blue character, horizontal like a mirror, at a glance to the bottom. The sun shines on the water, and the pebbles below the pool are so colorful that he can't take his eyes off it.
The water on the edge of the pool was knee-deep, and he couldn't stop itching his hands, so he stepped into the pool to fish for pebbles. I fished out this piece, and I thought that piece was good; I fished out that piece, and I felt that the one next to it was better, and I was very happy. Before I knew it, it was getting late, so I hurried back to the house on the ridge with a few small stones that I couldn't put down.
Nothing was said all night.
On the third day, the guest got up early again, and when he saw Xiao Ding when he went out, he immediately took Xiao Ding's hand and said mysteriously: "It's evil!" The peach blossoms in my room fell one by one last night. β
Xiao Ding was puzzled for a while.
In the morning, Xiaoding went to clean up Biying's room, and as soon as he opened the door, a strong smell of smoke mixed with the spicy smell of instant noodles came to his nose. Little Ding suddenly felt uncomfortable breathing, couldn't stop sneezing, and even tears hung out of the corners of his eyes.
The room was a mess: a jar full of cigarette butts, leftover instant noodles, and empty beverage cans.
"This man is such a big smoker, what a smoker." Xiao Ding complained while cleaning up.
There were a few small stones scattered on the coffee table, and Ding thought to himself that the guests might not have slept all night, fiddling with them while smoking.
Pack up Bi Ying, and remember what the "smoker" said, "It's evil!" The peach blossoms in my room fell one by one last night. With this sentence, Xiao Ding specially checked the room again, where are there any peach blossoms?
The guest who was scolded by Xiao Ding as a smoker still returned to Lingshang's house after dark, and saw his elated appearance, and gained a lot.
At noon on the fourth day, the smoker came to the front desk to check out, settled the bill, and said to the cashier Xiaoxi in a low voice: "Miss, please tell your boss, if you continue to adjust it like this, there are very few peach blossoms in Biying." β
Xiaoxi was so smoked by the smell of smoke on his body that he couldn't open his eyes, so he was too busy not to overdo it.
The smoker squeezed his eyes at Xiaoxi, and brought out an ancient poem out of time: "Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant as before." And when he had finished, he took his stone and walked away
Xiaoxi was confused.
β»In the evening, Xiaoxi transferred the original words of the smoker to March, and March was very surprised to hear it.
I met Xiao Ding today in March, and Xiao Ding laughed and bent down when he talked about the smoker as a joke, especially when he talked about the smoker's inconsequential words.
"Evil! The peach blossoms in the room fell one by one. β
"Miss, please tell your boss, if you continue to adjust it like this, Bi Ying's peach blossoms will be gone."
The two sentences came out of the mouth of the same person, and I was on my mind in March.
March couldn't stop walking into Biying, and the smell of smoke lingered in the room. March covered his nose and searched Bi Ying's carpet search, but found nothing unusual.
March involuntarily cast his eyes on smart LEDs.
March's heart moved, pressed the LED power, activated the video, and the Longmu Mountain VR ran quickly, and March seemed to be in the mountains.
With the rotation of March's fingers, the 360-degree inspection effect of the upper and lower circles will show the ten-mile peach orchard at a glance.
The ten-mile peach orchard is surrounded by red and pink, and the peach blossoms on the branches are enchanting.
Looking at it, March opened her mouth wide, and couldn't believe her eyes: under the peach tree, layers of petals were stacked.
In the original VR screen, not a single peach blossom withered in the entire peach tree. I remember March as clearly as I remember my name as March.
March kept spinning VR, and her face became more and more ugly.
"Scattered into mud and dust, only fragrant." There is no doubt that the smoke ghost is talking about the peach blossoms in virtual reality, and for two consecutive nights, the smoke ghost witnessed the transformation of the painting style of Longmu Mountain VR.
Lingshang people's high-intelligence LED built-in system, support mobile phone and Bluetooth WiFi, upload files as you like, and refresh data instantly.
March was worried that the VR file package of Longmu Mountain in the server was unknowingly repackaged.
Someone stole the username and password to log in to the server.
The smoker is the most suspicious, going out early in the morning for two consecutive days, and only returning to the house on the ridge after dark.
Where did the smoker go during this time? March wondered, did he deliberately lie to Xiaoding that he stayed in Biying Lake all day, but actually went to Taoyuan?
The ten-mile peach orchard is far above the eighteen pools of Longmu, and it is already very difficult to shoot back and forth in a day, not to mention the post-production. The old VR covers all the attractions at the foot of Longmu Mountain, and it leads the whole body. With the power of one person, if you want to complete the whole process in one day, there is no doubt that it is a night's nest. Besides, what are the benefits of replacing old VR? It will not affect the business of the people on the ridge in the slightest. A fool wouldn't do such a thing.
In order to find out the truth of the VR painting style conversion, March was stranded in Biying's room, and VR was always online.
There was no movement in the first half of the night.
At midnight, March was sleepy and sat in front of the video screen and took a nap.
A sound of rustling woke March.
I opened my eyes in March: the peach orchard was windy, the branches were shoulder to shoulder, the fallen flowers were colorful, and there was an extra layer of fallen flowers under the trees. March was taken aback: it was clearly the wind of nature, the wind of life.
March crashed.
