Chapter 521: Together in the same boat
As for sheep herders, cattle herders, farming and the like, there is only one copper coin for half a day's salary; Although it is said that he can exercise his mental power, Xu Ran thinks that mental power cannot be achieved quickly, and when he goes to the 'Mental Mechanics Hall', he must still need to spend game currency, and the important point that he is different from those players now is that he lacks game currency, so he must find money quickly first; It can only be considered for the time being, sheep herding and other types of work. Like the text here, Xu Ran can understand the language in the game, but can't speak it; After coming to the blacksmith shop, Xu Ran tried to greet the boss in Huaxia, and it seemed that the boss could understand him, and the boss answered him in a language that Xu Ran had never heard in the real world; The amazing thing is that he can understand what the boss is saying; The language of the two sides is completely incomprehensible, but it does not affect the mutual language and fluent communication, just like the two people have their own language translation system in their minds, you don't need to learn other people's languages, but it does not affect you at all and understand other people's voices.
Xu Ran explained to the boss that he was looking for a job, and the boss told Xu Ran that the job he was going to do now was to strike iron, but looking at his figure, I am afraid that he will not be able to do the work at full capacity, and his salary may be discounted. Xu Ran's current main thing is to have a job to do, adapt to the environment, and immediately take it down; I thought that if I felt that the income might be lower than that of working in a carpentry shop, it would be not too late to change jobs. Since Xu Ran was a newcomer, the work arranged at the beginning was forging blanks; The boss used long iron tongs and red-hot hair blanks to the anvil, and instructed Xu Ran to start forging with a sledgehammer. The blacksmith shop had two sledgehammers with different weights, and after Xu Ran tried the weight, he picked the small sledgehammer.
Xu Ran has never done physical work, and the realistic effect of this game is very good, picking up the sledgehammer has a feeling that he is in real life, and he is working with a sledgehammer; Xu Ran, who has never used a sledgehammer, feels very awkward, and often has the feeling of using the wrong force.
The boss saw Xu Ran's awkward movements, and stepped forward to demonstrate it in person; I don't know if it's because of the function of the game, or Xu Ran's mental effect, Xu Ran felt that he had comprehended some of the essentials of the hammer, and began to practice one by one. Because he has never done the physical work of hammering, coupled with the limited physical strength, Xu Ran has to take a break after working for a while, and the boss does not have a feeling of impatience.
After about 2 hours of work, the system prompted: "The player's mental power has reached the lower limit, and he needs to go offline to rest." Xu Ran said goodbye to the boss and said, "I can't do it today, let's do it here first, right?" The boss said, "Yes, but I didn't work at full capacity today, and I can only give my salary 5 copper coins." Xu Ran replied: "That's no problem, I just hope that the salary can be temporarily deposited with you, and it will be withdrawn together when it is convenient in the future." ”
The boss replied happily: "There is no problem with this." Xu Ran went out happily and went offline. Xu Ran also thought about whether to change the 'username' and 'password'; so that only he could use this account to enter the 'dream game'; but he didn't dare to take the risk; he didn't consider whether his practice of stealing the number to protect his own security would be considered very inauthentic by the 'player Xu Ran'; he only said that with the high-tech level of others, it should be too easy to recover a game account.
Moreover, he really doesn't know anything about the other party's world now; In case the 'player Xu Ran' named 'Blowing Snow' is not angry with his behavior of stealing the account, it may not bring much risk to himself and himself. And to maintain the current situation, the other party may not be aware of his small movements for the time being; Even if the other party finds out and acts privately, as long as your behavior does not cause losses to the other party, you will not incur a serious response. Therefore, Xu Ran believes that there is no need to rush to take risks.
When he got up this morning, Xu Ran felt a little weak all over his body, and his arms were sore, as if he had done a lot of exercise, and there were still a lot of sweat stains on his body; He hurriedly took a shower in the bathroom. However, in addition to feeling weak physically, he felt that his mental head was quite strong, and there was no fatigue and malaise. When he went to work in the morning, he couldn't help but wonder: this game is really interesting, and the strenuous physical activity in the dream will be reflected in reality.
In order to verify whether the voice translation system has been installed in his head, he didn't care about the habit of 'giving up all distractions when he goes to work', so he couldn't wait to open an English website and browse it casually. His English level, that is, English level 4, barely passed; This Internet verifies that he knows the English he knows, and he still doesn't know the English he shouldn't; This can be regarded as a confirmation, and there is no language translation system installed in my mind, so I can only accept my fate without regret and not be able to do this good thing.
During the lunch break, Xu Ran felt his arms and no longer felt uncomfortable; He wondered again if he should take advantage of the lunch break to play games in his dreams again; The curiosity to learn is hard to resist, and Xu Ran finally decided to go in and have a look; At the very least, you can see the various indicators of the body and how well you are recovering from your personal information at the time of login. When sleeping, the mental power should be easy to concentrate, half-dreaming and half-waking, Xu Ran feels that he is in an ethereal state; Select the game interface in your mind, and then perform the follow-up operations, and it is very easy to enter the novice village again; When I came in, I took a special look, but my various state indicators have not changed, and my mental power is still 6.
All drop values have been restored. After coming to the novice village, Xu Ran went to the martial arts hall first, and he wanted to know the cost of learning martial arts. There are many kinds of martial arts techniques in the martial arts hall, including fist method, palm method, stick method, knife method, gun method, sword method, dagger method, leg method, throwing method, grappling method, bow method and other several exercises, each of which has some types of extension. Each exercise is divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels. Because he followed the 'blowing snow' and was familiar with the King Kong palm method, Xu Ran directly chose to check and look at the palm method, and there were dozens of palm methods of various names, and he was dazzled; Since he was not familiar with martial arts, he did not have the time and energy to carefully select, so he went directly to check the 'Vajra Palm' palm technique.
There is a brief introduction: powerful and mighty, the palm of the Vajra Protector. Elementary tuition fee: 1 silver coin. Intermediate tuition: 1 gold coin; Advanced tuition: 5 gold coins. There is also a note: the tuition fee will help you learn how to use the palm technique. Skill and proficiency still require a lot of practice. Hourly usage fee for the practice room, 1 silver coin. After understanding the general situation, Xu Ran went straight to the blacksmith shop; Under the beckoning of the blacksmith shop owner, Xu Ran picked up the small hammer and continued to practice the blank. This time, Xu Ran felt easier than last time; Xu Ran's current power movements are more proficient, forging the blank, and doing less useless work, so he can save some physical strength. This afternoon, there were fewer iron activities and rests, and the rest time was shorter.
After about two and a half hours of drying, the system prompted: "The player's mental strength has reached the lower limit, and he needs to go offline to rest." Xu Ran said goodbye to the boss again, saying that he couldn't do it again; The boss said that this time there was an improvement compared to the last time, and he could give a salary of 7 copper coins. Xu Ran still asked to temporarily deposit his salary with the boss; The boss was happy to agree.
After Xu Ran went out, the game interface was brought up in his mind and he went offline again. Xu Ran, who woke up, looked at the time, it was already 16 o'clock in the afternoon, and it was not suitable to go to work in the afternoon. Fortunately, the nature of Xu Ran's work is not a rigid point, as long as they don't delay their work, they have a fairly high degree of freedom. Xu Ran called Minister Liu and told the minister that he had slept a little today, and he would not go in the afternoon, and his work would definitely not be delayed. Minister Liu didn't say anything, and agreed that he would not go in the afternoon.
After quitting the game this time, Xu Ran's two arms felt a little more soreness than the one in the morning, probably because of the amount of exercise this time and the iron striking at night. Xu Ran took a shower in the dormitory, sat on a chair and thought about his next steps for the dream game. At the beginning, Xu Ran just hoped that when he fell into a dream with the player, he would have the opportunity to learn more about and explore the world of the 'dream game', and when the player's 'spirit thorn' was consumed, he could also have the opportunity to learn some martial arts in it; He had thought that this was the benefit of being forced into the 'dream game'.
Now that I have found it, I can also enter the 'dream game' alone, and I can have the opportunity to gain more things; Then this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, he said that everything must be grasped well, and it must not be easily let go, and it must be used well. But that 'blowing snow' is impossible to often and without entering the game; And what can be summed up so far is that he only enters a period of time in the day and night. If you want to explore the secrets of the game and learn martial arts and other skills in the 'dream game', you must have your own time and enter the game independently; From the analysis that gamers only enter the 'dream game' during the time of day and night, it should be detrimental to the player's health if he enters the game multiple times a day; From this point of view, you can't be greedy for more time to enter the dream game, and it is enough to be able to enter a period of time alone every day. If you and the player enter the 'Dream Game' with themselves, then entering the 'Dream Game' alone for another time is equivalent to entering the 'Dream Game' twice a day, which may be detrimental to your body. But compared to the huge benefits that may be obtained in the 'dream game', Xu Ran is very willing to take on this 'risk factor' that is not good for his body; Xu Ran feels that this is a game that exercises his mental power, and when his mental power can also be greatly improved in the game, he should be similar to Superman compared to ordinary people.
Just for this predictable achievement, it is also worth fighting for yourself; What's more, I now know that I can also take it with me to learn martial arts in the 'dream game', which is also a great benefit for me. As for your own body, as long as you pay more attention to the changes in your physical condition; If the risk is too great, you can stop in time and no longer enter the dream game alone.
As for whether he can often take half a day out and enter the 'dream game' in the middle of work, Xu Ran feels that there is no need to think about this problem, because it must be implemented and done. Relative to the possible benefits, from an objective point of view, if you need to be absent from work for half a day every day to keep yourself free and enter the 'dream game' alone, Xu Ran will do it without saying a word. If he loses his job because of this, Xu Ran will not hesitate to do it; For his temporary living problems, his previous savings can still be guaranteed, and he can wait until he can't live anymore to look for a job; And if you can't seize the opportunity to enter the 'dream game' alone, maybe you won't have another chance in the future.
What is rare is that Xu Ran's current working hours do not need to be very stuck, only eat at night, just after eight o'clock, log in to QQ; The message of the 'peacock' has arrived: "Hello camels. Xu Ran replied, "Hello peacock." "The name of the player I possessed is Yun Zhongyue, remember to take care of it if you encounter it in the future." "Okay, I don't have the ability to take care of others now, and if I can take care of them, I must take care of them, I made a note of them." Peacock continued to message, "Can you tell me the name of the player you possessed?" "Blowing snow, I hope to meet fate."
"I think the game is getting more and more amazing today. The players I possess sometimes go into battle to fight their opponents, and sometimes I have a sense of the game's body, and I can feel the player's strength, movement, and pain when being hit. Xu Ran said: "I don't know under what circumstances you have a sense of the game body, there is a skill in this game, called the spirit thorn, which can be seen from the player's full blood volume." "Oh, the player I'm possessing has a peak HP of 110."
Xu Ran continued to reply: "I feel that the player's spirit thorn should start from the peak of blood volume and 110, and every time the peak blood volume increases by 10, there will be an increase in the opportunity to use the spirit thorn. It was only when the player's spiritual spurs ran out that I had the feeling of substitution for the game's body. "Tell me something I don't know, Brother Camel."
Xu Ran thought for a while and replied, "When you can remember your login account and password, I'll tell you something you need to know." ”
"How should I exercise my mental strength?" Xu Ran replied: "I don't understand how to exercise mental strength." But there is one thing that I think is very important for us, and that is to have a good rest, so that we can maintain enough energy, which should be good for protecting ourselves and for us. "The reason why Xu Ran didn't tell 'Peacock' that in the 'Novice Village' of the dream game, there are people who specialize in practicing mental power and part-time jobs, is because he doesn't know yet, whether 'Peacock' can enter the 'Novice Village' alone in the end; And it is not conducive to the confidentiality of information.
Xu Ran then asked, "In addition, do you think that you will eat more recently?" "Yes, yes, I've been hungry lately, and I don't dare to eat more for fear of getting fat." Xu Ran replied: "Don't let yourself be hungry, I add 5 yuan more meat than before when I drink soup in the morning, otherwise I will start hungry before lunchtime, you have to keep up with your nutrition, I think our activities in the dream will also consume a lot of extra energy." So you must have measures to increase nutrition for yourself. ”
"Thank you! What else to pay attention to. "As you just mentioned, sometimes you feel something when your possessed player fights with others, and the next time you encounter something like this, you try to memorize her martial arts movements and strength, and you will find that you can take the opportunity to comprehend some fighting skills; Of course, you have to wake up and get familiar with it and practice. 'Peacock' replied, "Yes, great, I like to be a kung fu superman, I will definitely memorize and practice well." Thank you, Brother Camel. ”
"This game is amazing, I once went to a restaurant with them to eat in a dream, and I was able to taste the taste of wine and food, the flavor is very unique, and it is delicious.
