Brother 319: Rebirth
Soon, the car stopped at a restaurant, and as soon as Sima Shaohua walked in, he saw a young man in a white shirt waving at the edge of the restaurant.
The restaurant's azure glass is filled with a faint blue light, which acts as a filter to render the surrounding environment.
The boy propped his chin in one hand, and a delicately crafted spoon in his mouth, and on his table lay four or five plates of strange white chocolate, cream cakes, macarons, and ice cream, all of which were sweet just to look at.
"I've been waiting for you for ten minutes."
Mo Chuchen licked off the cream on his lips and took a sip of Coke comfortably, when these sweet and greasy things fused in his mouth, he looked satisfied.
"The meeting was delayed just now."
Looking at the person in front of him, Sima Shaohua was in a trance, he still remembered that the powerful ghost in front of him never liked sweets, let alone spoke so calmly.
"What's the matter with you that you have to ask me to come out?"
Mo Chuchen tilted his head and looked at Sima Shaohua.
Under the tempering of time, this son of luck has precipitated a kind of calmness that does not match his age, and under his young appearance, a pair of special eyes are as bright as stars.
Sima Shaohua sat opposite, he didn't like sweets very much, this sweet thing hung the air with a damn sweetness.
"I don't think you have to go out these days."
Sima Shaohua summoned the waiter and ordered a cup of bitter coffee: "There will be a meteor shower recently, and it is not safe to go out." ”
"You don't think I'm going to be unlucky enough to be stoned to death, do you?"
Mo Chuchen tasted the chocolate without raising his head.
When Sima Shaohua heard this, his hands trembled subconsciously, and he stared at the young man opposite.
The man's delicate and handsome face was stained with a little dessert residue, and although he looked full of bookishness, he couldn't hide the laziness between his eyebrows.
It seems that the speech just now was just a random statement by the other party.
"Instead of worrying about this kind of unrealistic thing, it's better to worry about your marriage, I heard that your uncle and aunt have been arranging blind dates for you, but you actually refused.
Speaking of which, you've been too close to women over the years, have you not been interested in normal humans since the silicone robot was produced? ”
"Ahem, what are you talking about!"
Hearing this, Sima Shaohua's angry face burned red, he just opened a production line of smart silicone dolls, and many of them planned to face silicone dolls for the rest of their lives.
Speaking of which, despite the slogan of simulating companions, silicone robots are overweight and prone to dust, which is completely incomparable to humans.
Wrong! What does he want silicone dolls?
Sima Shaohua, who complained in his head, realized that he had been bypassed the topic.
"Seriously!"
"Well, what the hell are you talking about?"
Mo Chuchen spread his hands innocently: "If you are worried that I will be stoned to death, it is absolutely impossible."
Sima Shaohua patted his forehead with his big hand, and he said deflatedly:
"I'm afraid you're going to be stoned to death.
But to put it mildly, I'm also worried that you'll become a ghost haunting me when you die.
Willow leaves, believe me, I'm sure I'm right. ”
Although it was more than ten years ago in the previous life.
But now that I think about it, those terrible memories are still vivid and lingering.
"In that case, why don't we go to the temple and buy peace and blessings."
Mo Chuchen quickly solved the sweet tooth in a state of turmoil, and said with a bright smile: "It's the first time I've realized that you're really afraid of ghosts!" ”
"I don't think it's useful."
Facing the mocking tone of his little friend, Sima Shaohua's face did not change, it was not that he had not tried to exorcise ghosts in the temple, in fact, the temple could not expel the ghosts at all.
"How do you know if you don't try it?
Come, I'll take you. ”
Mo Chuchen took out a few hundred-yuan bills from his pocket, threw them to the cashier, and then pulled Sima Shaohua and walked out.
"Wait a minute, where are we going?"
Sima Shaohua broke free of the other party's white hand and followed behind with puzzlement.
"You'll find out when you're gone."
Mo Chuchen replied confidently.
They walked through old neighborhoods, through weedy hills, through small shrines, and finally to a quaint temple.
The temple is not large, it is made of blue bricks, and a mottled statue and incense burner are all its contents.
"Who are you?"
The old monk looked at the two young men in bewilderment, he had been here for so long, and it was the first time he had met a new visitor.
"I'm here to ask for a peace charm for this buddy."
Mo Chuchen pointed to Sima Shaohua behind him.
"How come I've never seen one here?"
Sima Shaohua has also lived in the city for several years, and this is the first time he knows about this place.
"This, take it, fifteen yuan a piece, how many do you want?"
Without answering Sima Shaohua's confusion, the old monk skillfully took out a stack of rune paper from the drawer next to the offering table, those rune papers should be some years old, the thin yellow paper is particularly old, and the cinnabar characters on it still have some signs of resurgence.
"Why don't I think it's reliable?"
Sima Shaohua stared at the old yellow paper, and felt in his heart that this must have met a liar.
Whose peace charm is placed so casually?
Normally, the prayer symbols in the temple are burned incense and chanted.
This old monk is good, he will have to charge for taking out a stack of papers directly from the drawer, and even the steps will be saved.
"Peace of mind, it's definitely useful, come to five, don't look for it."
Mo Chuchen simply handed over the money with one hand and delivered the goods with the other.
Sima Shaohua silently took the rune paper, he originally wanted to raise his own question.
But for the sake of the lack of money, I finally held back.
On the way back, Sima Shaohua noticed the road under his feet.
The path was very narrow, and there were weeds on the left and right, and you could vaguely see strange small houses of about fifty centimeters in the weeds, and there were small people carved out of stone in them.
"These things ......."
"It's a forgotten temple, and when the city's appearance was renovated before, these temples were thrown down this road, let's go."
Mo Chuchen led Sima Shaohua down the mountain, although this temple is only in the forest of the back mountain, but if there is no one to guide him, it is really difficult to leave.
After returning to the old neighborhood, Sima Shaohua subconsciously glanced back at the scenery of the back mountain.
The trail is not visible at all in the back hill of the lush trees.
Dense trees occupy all of the back hills, and from the streets of the old neighborhood, it looks as if the paths and temples never existed.
The evening breeze blew, and the chill filled Sima Shaohua's heart, he shook off the strange thoughts in his mind, he quickened his pace, and kept up with Mo Chuchen.
"Take it, don't drop it."
Mo Chuchen seemed to complain and sighed: "If you don't confiscate it, don't blame it, I knew that I should take you to study more university courses, you are so superstitious as a rich man." ”
"You don't understand as a living person."
Sima Shaohua raised his head and looked at the sky, his eyes full of melancholy and embarrassment.
"Cut, you're talking like a dead man, okay, let's go."
Although Mo Chuchen knows everything, he still has to act as if he doesn't know anything.
"You've been hiding these days!"
Sima Shaohua reluctantly left after thousands of instructions.
[Host, that place is fake, what if he finds something strange when he finds it?] 】
The small system watched the whole process, so what kind of path, temple, in fact, all are just illusions.
The real situation is that the host took the poor son of luck around the old neighborhood for a long time, bought five cents of a rune paper from a roadside stall, added some materials to the rune paper and handed it to the son of luck.
"There are no monitors in the old neighborhood, just look for him, if he finds the truth, I will lose."
Mo Chuchen is still very confident in his craft.
[I think that no matter whether he finds the truth or not, I'm afraid he will be scared of illness. 】
The small system silently embarrassed this son of luck.
Soon after, a torrential rain hit, and people across the city hurried to and fro in the rain with umbrellas.
It rained for a day, and even the air in the city was fresh after the rain.
After the rain, the weather was fine, and a piece of news was quickly pushed on TV, mobile phones, and various public platforms.
It was a news piece about a meteor shower.
According to the analysis of the Astronomical and Meteorological Observation Bureau of Country M, a large-scale meteor shower is about to appear in the next 48 hours.
Mo Chuchen turned on the TV and listened to the news inside, and he had a headache about this news.
Scattered along with the meteor shower.
This year's wild system has learned wisely and directly dispersed its actions.
In this case, it will not be easy for him to find the scattered wild system on his own.
"Yezi, are you watching TV? I heard that there is a broom star coming out recently, don't run around, that's unlucky. ”
Aunt Liu came to Mo Chuchen's residence with the fruit.
After seeing the meteor shower broadcast on the TV news, she couldn't help but "popularize" Mo Chuchen:
"You young people think it's lively, this broom star was not a good thing in the past, when I was a child, there was also a time with a village of people to see the broom star, but the broom star was seen that day, except for me twisted my foot, everyone else either caught a cold or hit the head and broke the blood, this broom star is weird and evil."
"Okay, I'm not going to go out casually." Mo Chuchen responded.
"That's fine, Grandma will help you clean up the house!" Aunt Liu found the vacuum cleaner placed in the corner while thinking about it: "How do you use this thing?" ”
"Milk, don't worry about pulling, it's all smart now, and the robot will clean it."
Mo Chuchen hurriedly stopped it, for fear that this old lady would really clean the room.
Fortunately, Aunt Liu immediately gave up the idea of cleaning after learning not to use a vacuum cleaner, and left after a walk.
After Aunt Liu left, Mo Chuchen found more than a dozen teleportation scrolls from the system mall.
[Host, what are you looking for so many teleportation scrolls for?] 】
The small system stared at those scrolls with a question mark on his face, don't look at them as mediocre, but the function is not small.
With it, the host can randomly draw taskers from the quest world into the same mini-world.
"Of course, the teleporter is coming, and I'll fix the spatial barrier of this world after the wild system drops.
So it only takes a dozen questers to work together to find those lurking wild systems. ”
As he spoke, Mo Chuchen unlocked the teleportation scroll in his hand.
After unlocking, the teleportation scroll quickly turned into starlight and disappeared.
At the same time, all questers received a teleportation invitation to crusade against a small world wild system.
Self-contained taskers scoff at such tasks and ignore them entirely.
However, many newcomers who were curious about the task and the system accepted the invitation.
On the occasion of teleportation, they also specifically asked the system about the teleportation mechanism.
"System, will this task need to fulfill the client's wishes?"
The tasker asked curiously.
[No, it's a short-term task, it only needs to be delayed for a few months, you just focus on chasing the wild system, as long as you don't engage in moths, the rating will not be low.] 】
After learning that the world to be teleported was only a low-level small world, and that each wild system sacrificed would be rewarded with 3,000 points and good luck, the newcomers happily agreed to teleport.
The day the newlyweds arrive at the small world is just 3 hours before the meteor shower is about to begin, and on this day, the weather is sunny and the wind is beautiful.
Mo Chuchen, who was wearing a beige trench coat, slipped to the dessert shop, ordered his favorite ice cream and milk puffs, and enjoyed a rare dessert afternoon tea.
Most people don't realize what kind of catastrophe this meteor shower will be.
After all, meteor showers are all linked to beautiful love in everyone's memory, and if it is linked to disasters, I am afraid that few people are willing to believe it.
"This evening, shall we go to watch the meteor shower live?"
"Don't be stupid, what kind of meteor shower do you watch in broad daylight?"
"Do you want to see it?"
"Okay, okay, just watch it if you want to."
A couple sat at the table next to Mo Chuchen, and they were tired and crooked discussing the meteor shower.
The fashionably dressed couples were talking energetically, and the faces of the two suddenly changed, and their eyes instantly drifted, and it took a few seconds for them to regain their smart eyes.
It's just that this time, the faces of the two people are no longer the same as before, but they are more cautious and precautionary.
Obviously, during the course of their conversation, the tasker came straight to the soul.
"Hey, did you really teleport over? Where is the wild system? My broadsword is ready! ”
The fashionable boyfriend suppressed his excitement and looked left and right, as if he was about to fight fiercely at any time.
"Calm down! The meteor shower hasn't arrived yet! Let's go, go to the Internet café to find information about meteor showers. ”
The fashionable girlfriend complained with disgust.
"This task can also be regarded as a benefit, after all, the task time is short, and you can leave without completing the original owner's commission."
"Okay, don't read it, others think you're insane!"
The fashionable girlfriend looked around vigilantly, and after her eyes swept over the handsome little brother next door, she pulled her companion to check out and left the dessert house with disgust.
[They came instantly. The small system looked at the taskers who came and ran [I don't know how many mouthfuls of energy I can get!] 】。
Thinking of this, the small system's heart ached, and the kind of good thing that was wiped out in the last world was really impossible.
"Sima Shaohua came to text me again, urging me to hide."
Mo Chuchen picked up his phone, thought about it, laughed wickedly, took a selfie with sweets, and sent it over.
