Chapter 57: Mom and Dad (6,000 words, please subscribe!) )

Well??

Qin Fangzhou was about to turn around and do the task, but when he heard this, he turned around: "You...... Didn't turn into an NPC? ”

"What NPC?"

Xiao Li still looked puzzled.

“……”

Qin Fangzhou hesitated for a moment and asked, "What is 1+1?" ”

Xiao Li was stunned, but still replied: "2." ”

"In which direction does the sun rise every morning?"

"In general, it's from the east. But now in the worldview event, so I don't know much either. ”

Embarrassed......

It seems that Xiao Li did not become an NPC.

It's also to blame this product, it's usually such a dull question-and-answer dialogue mode.

"Mr. Qin, what are you talking about...... Is it the common sense that needs to be mastered in the current 2.0 worldview? ”

Xiao Li asked.

Qin Fangzhou nodded: "Did you see the expansion pack just now, and the update hint for version 2.0?" ”

"Well, I see. But I don't really understand what an upgrade is. ”

"Haven't you played the game?"

Xiao Li shook his head.

Qin Fangzhou looked helpless.

But it's also right......

This Xiao Li may be an animal that has been manipulated by wind and heating to change into a human form.

Forget it, explain it.

After all, Feng Nuan popularized a lot of common sense with himself before, and if he came out to mix, he would have to pay it back sooner or later.

Then it took five minutes for Qin Fangzhou to tell Xiao Li some game essentials as concisely as possible.

This guy is very quick.

In the process, Qin Fangzhou said as he searched for it in the house.

Soon.

He found a barrel filled with a strange green liquid, as well as a stone covered in tooth marks.

Of course, it was Xiao Li who helped him find it.

"Mr. Qin, I hope you can avoid it."

Just when Qin Fangzhou wanted to submit the task, Xiao Li stopped him.

How?

Are there any shady secrets?

At this time, Qin Fangzhou noticed that Xiao Li had quietly put his hand on his katana.

Qin Fangzhou hesitated for a moment.

He really wants experience, he wants to upgrade.

But what he knows better is that the current worldview is nothing more than a series of erroneous data, and the first thing he needs to know is ......

I am trapped in this strange and wrong worldview.

Maintaining a friendly relationship with Feng Nuan and her partners is the most important thing.

"Okay."

Qin Fangzhou turned around and walked out of the door temporarily.

But after a minute, Xiao Li's voice came from inside: "Mr. Qin, please come." ”

"Done?"

Qin Fangzhou turned back, but was stunned to find ......

Feng Nuan's expression had become very painful, and Xiao Li looked helpless.

He put the piece of wood full of tooth prints into the mouth of the wind warmer, but the next moment, this piece of wood would return to Xiao Li's hands, he tried many times, and the result was the same.

Qin Fangzhou shook his head: "I don't care what secrets you have, I respect you." But I would like to say that now since we are in the worldview event, we have to follow the rules. I received the task, so ...... Only I can do it. ”

Although Xiao Li had never played a game, he was very smart, and after he learned the rules of the game from Qin Fangzhou just now, he also roughly understood the reason for the current situation.

He hesitated a little.

Xiao Li was helpless, so he handed over the barrel and the wooden block to Qin Fangzhou.

Qin Fangzhou didn't have any delay, and after taking it, he followed the task prompts, put the wooden bucket at the feet of Feng Nuan, soaked her feet in this green liquid, and then stuffed the wooden block into Feng Nuan's mouth.

Click, click-

Soon.

Qin Fangzhou heard the terrifying sound of bone cracking coming from the wind-warming legs!

The next moment......

Her legs were instantly stained red with blood, as if a bone had cracked and poked out, propping up her pants.

Her blindfolded eyes began to bleed out......

Groove ......

This......

What's going on?!

Qin Fangzhou was taken aback.

What is this wind warmth??

In the process, Feng Nuan was sweating profusely, and her face was pale and distorted, as if she was going through hellish pain!

As usual, in the cage in the corner, little squirrels came to the hole in the gap in the corner, and a pair of small black eyes stared at it all.

In the process of Feng Nuan's pain, her eyes, which were not covered by the blindfold, were bloodshot, and she looked in the direction of Qin Fangzhou.

This look......

A little infiltrating!

Qin Fangzhou even felt that he was looking at a beast that would go crazy at any moment!

[Feng Nuan's illness has been relieved, and the task is complete!] 】

At this moment, a game progress prompt popped up.

Just now, his eyes were scarlet, and the wind was warm in pain, but at this moment, he was accompanied by a feeling that the page was refreshed, and it returned to its original normal appearance.

She sat upright in her wheelchair as if nothing had happened before.

[Gain 200 experience!] 】

[Congratulations to player Qin Fangzhou for upgrading to lv2!] 】

The panel pops up.

Player: Qin Fangzhou.

Occupation: None.

Level: Lv2 (XP 100/200)

Health: 200

……

It's quite experienced!

So.

The amount of XP required to level up each level is equal to 100, right?

"Xiao Li, since you are also a player, you are also taking on a task in Feng Nuan."

Qin Fangzhou casually threw a sentence.

"Nope."

Xiao Li quickly shook his head: "I don't want my master to suffer." - I noticed just now that the clock clock on the wall has been stuck at a difference of five minutes to two o'clock. The moment you submit your task, the clock hands suddenly jump to two o'clock. And when the mission is completely over, the time returns to the difference of five minutes to two o'clock. ”

Qin Fangzhou looked back.

Really.

"So, as long as you don't accept the task, the master will not suffer."

"Well, that's how it should be."

Qin Fangzhou nodded: "That's okay, I'll go." But I warn you, it's best not to stay here all the time, go out and find out if there are any other places and NPCs to receive quests, according to the worldview, if you can't reach level 10 within 24 hours, you may not be able to deal with the next situation. ”

Xiao Li nodded slightly: "Mr. Qin, I hope you can keep it secret." ”

Secrecy?

Oh, you mean that Feng Nuan had some weird things on his body just now, right?

Qin Fangzhou knew in his heart: "Don't worry." I didn't see anything just now. ”

This year......

Who doesn't have a secret?

What's more, it's an awakened person who already has a lot of secrets and hole cards.

……

Leaving from the pet store, Qin Fangzhou went to his mother's work unit as soon as possible.

My mother is an ordinary worker working in a grain and oil unit, with a meager salary and little oil and water, but fortunately she is not particularly tired.

Since there was no selection setting in version 1.0, Qin Fangzhou came to the door of his mother's unit without pressure.

As soon as he got closer, Qin Fangzhou was stunned to find ......

Many men and women were arguing about something, and they couldn't see what was going on in the crowd, but they could hear the group of people talking.

"I rub? This task...... You can get it unlimited?? ”

"Although the experience is very small each time, it ...... Compared to other tasks, this is much simpler! ”

Task?

Are these people talking around an NPC?

Qin Fangzhou didn't think much about it, stepped forward and pushed away the crowd that had obviously been promoted to players, and took a fixed look.

In the midst of the crowd.

My own mother, standing there.

Today's weather is extremely cold, Qin Fangzhou is wearing a long-sleeved gown, and he feels cold, while his mother is only wearing a thin half-sleeved overalls, with a sad face.

"Mom? You ......"

In fact, Qin Fangzhou already had the answer in his heart.

Mom......

It should be that in the last version, it failed to "survive" and became an NPC in version 2.0.

But Qin Fangzhou still had a hint of luck, and stepped forward and shouted.

A guy with dyed yellow hair next to him smiled: "Brother, you are close to the NPC set, it's useless, don't say it's called Mom, it's useless for you to call Grandma, they don't understand." But don't worry, although there are many people here, this quest can be claimed infinitely, but everyone has their own cooldown time for receiving it. You can just go up and pick it up, no need to queue! ”

“……”

Qin Fangzhou felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

But he still walked up and shouted again: "Mom......"

My mother still didn't move, and her eyes were empty with worry, as if she didn't know herself at all, or even couldn't see herself.

There were a few players next to him, shouting "Auntie", and they all triggered the dialog box displayed in "......" on Mom's head.

So......

Qin Fangzhou finally gritted his teeth and shouted awkwardly: "Auntie." ”

Suddenly.

Mom's eyes looked at herself, and the "......" dialog box in her head became clear text.

"Alas, it's so distressing, our family Ark hasn't found a girlfriend until now, and his personality is boring, if Ark goes on like this...... But it's going to be a single. When Lao Qin and I get older, there will be no more people...... How lonely it should be for the ark to live alone in this world. Eh, by the way, I heard that my colleague Sister Hua has a daughter, who has just graduated and arranged a job, and is single, why don't I go to Sister Hua and ask? ”

"It just so happens that Sister Hua is eating at the ramen restaurant opposite the unit now, I heard that she likes peony flowers, and the peony flowers behind the unit are blooming, so pick ten plants for her and send them over!"

“……”

Qin Fangzhou's heart was condensed.

Really.

I called my mother before, and the words she said to herself were actually just lines that triggered the NPC mission!

[Player Qin Fangzhou, take over the task (Auntie's worries)! ] 】

To be obtained: [Peony Flower behind the unit] 0/10.

"Ugh."

Qin Fangzhou sighed.

This feeling of being face-to-face with my own mother, but not being able to recognize each other, is really melancholy.

But......

But it's a good thing.

Because my mother obviously didn't "survive" in the last version, and although she became an NPC, at least she didn't really "die"!

Qin Fangzhou suddenly had no strength to speak.

Looking at the thin half-cut sleeves on his mother's body, Qin Fangzhou took off his coat and tried to put it on his mother.

[Wrong operation! 】

With a pop-up warning, the coat that had not yet been draped on his mother's body returned to Qin Fangzhou's hand.

Tried again......

Wrong Operation.

The result is the same.

"Haha, this dude, it's so funny!"

"Brother, are you still not used to it? I really don't know how you survived version 1.0 with this kind of awareness! Think about it with your brain, can you wear your clothes, NPCs? ”

"yes, NPCs aren't people!"

“……”

Qin Fangzhou secretly gritted his teeth.

Although I want to refute it, but think about it, when did I think about it when I used to play games, when did I treat NPCs as human beings?

Turning his head and keeping his face calm, Qin Fangzhou walked straight to the flower bed behind his mother's unit.

That's it.

No matter how melancholy I am now, I can't do anything but wait for the worldview event to end!

Soon.

Qin Fangzhou completed the task.

After submission.

My mother held ten peony flowers with a surprised face, and bowed to Qin Fangzhou again and again to thank her!

"Thank you, it's amazing! I can go to Sister Hua to talk about finding a partner for my son! ”

After saying that, my mother ran to the ramen restaurant across the road.

Qin Fangzhou followed all the way.

Entering the noodle restaurant, Qin Fangzhou swept around, whether it was the boss or the guests who ate noodles, they were all a little indifferent to the changes in the world, and they each did their own thing.

This attitude......

There is no doubt that these people have either become NPC tool people, or they have simply been reduced to elements that enrich the scene.

Include......

The flower sister who has heavy makeup on her face, eats noodles with her head raised and her chin raised, and is very proud at first glance.

The old mother ran to her, gave her ten peony flowers, and opened her mouth to chat: "Sister Hua, I heard that your daughter is still single?" ”

Sister Hua put down the chopsticks in her hand with disdain and wiped her mouth: "Hehe, Zhang Xiuzhi, I knew you were going to find it." But please go back and let your son look in the mirror for himself, where is he worthy of my daughter who graduated from a prestigious school? What is your family's family situation, and you still came to ask me about my daughter's marital and love status? - Colleague, I don't want to say it too badly. Your son, everyone knows that he is a stuffy gourd, has he had a brain problem recently? I advise you to give your son a good treatment, and don't think about harming other people's girls all day long. ”

The old mother looked lost, with tears in her eyes, but she said stubbornly: "My son is not sick." ”

After speaking, he got up and walked out of the noodle shop.

[Mission completed, gain 20 XP!] 】

Seeing this scene, Qin Fangzhou secretly clenched his fists.

Experience or something, he doesn't care anymore, he just wants to go up and splash a bowl of noodles on this flower sister's face now!

But it's a pity.

He got up and touched the bowl, and just wanted to pick it up.

A prompt pops up in front of you [Wrong operation!] 】

“……”

Looking at his mother's lonely and sad back, Qin Fangzhou silently followed.

As soon as I went out, I heard someone who was also a player speak.

"Look, I'll just say it's a very fast task! I handed in the task, and it was done in less than half a minute! ”

"Although the experience is only 20, everyone, every hour, can do this task, and the task is not difficult at all, everyone should make good use of it!"

When Qin Fangzhou heard these people's discussions, he felt indescribably uncomfortable.

Get out of the noodle shop.

It just so happened that someone had submitted another task.

Mom thanked the man and bowed: "Thank you, it's amazing!" I can go to Sister Hua to talk about finding a partner for my son! ”

Then, my mother rushed into the noodle shop with a look of excitement.

Half a minute later......

Under Sister Hua's merciless ridicule, the mother said sadly and lonely with tears in her eyes: "My son is not sick." ”

Then walk out of the noodle shop.

Another person submitted the task.

My mother thanked and bowed again, ran into the noodle shop excitedly, and walked out with tears in her eyes half a minute later.

And just like that, constant and repeated excitement, anticipation, then disappointment and sadness.

Repeat repeat repeat ......

Countless players are still lining up, smiling, and marveling at how easy this mission is designed.

“……”

I can't stand it anymore.

Qin Fangzhou's nose was a little sour.

At this moment, he realized......

For herself, my mother is really heartbroken.

"Let's go see Daddy."

Seeing his mother end up like this, Qin Fangzhou felt heavy and secretly prayed that his father would survive and become a player.

Even if it becomes an NPC, I hope it ......

Don't be so miserable.

……

Half an hour later.

Qin Fangzhou came to the downstairs of the company where his father worked.

Compared with my mother, my father's salary is more, and he usually has a lot of bonuses, which is the main source of income for the family.

It's an innovative technology company.

My dad didn't ask much about college, he just did clerical work for the company.

Want......

It should be easier, right?

However......

When Qin Fangzhou came to the door of his father's company, he saw that it seemed to be ...... There were also some guys who looked like players, and a hint of foreboding suddenly arose in their hearts.

Walk in from the crowd.

I saw my dad at a glance.

But fortunately, these players don't seem to be surrounding their fathers, but around a cleaning aunt next to them, maybe the task of that cleaning aunt is easier to complete.

But......

When he saw the strange eyes that his father swept away from him, Qin Fangzhou instantly understood.

Dad...... I don't recognize myself now.

He also became an NPC.

Dad sat at a desk, wearing a yellowish white shirt, with a haggard face, a little messy hair, and bloodshot eyes.

A middle-aged man in a straight suit, with a leader's style, holding half a cup of coffee in his hand, walked over and threw a stack of papers on his father's desk.

"Who, fix things, don't rush back to rest first. Since I am working overtime, I will add it to the end. ”

Dad accompanied the smiling face, nodded again and again, hid his exhaustion as much as possible, and quickly took the document.

The leader didn't look at him squarely, walked straight out of the company, and when he went out, he casually put the cup of coffee on a small round table in the door.

Qin Fangzhou stepped forward with some distress and tried to call out to his father.

Dad didn't respond.

Qin Fangzhou took a deep breath and shouted out with some difficulty: "Uncle." ”

However......

Dad still didn't respond.

Qin Fangzhou recalled the leader's lines just now, and tried to shout: "Who is that." ”

This shout.

Dad did react.

He looked up at Qin Fangzhou, moved his dry and parched lips, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I haven't rested since I worked overtime yesterday...... Maybe it's hard to talk, but if you can drink something at this time. It's a pity...... The company's water dispenser was broken, and there was only one coffee machine, which was still in the leader's office. ”

[Player Qin Fangzhou, take over the task (for the one who quenches his thirst)! ] 】

To be obtained: [Quenching Thirst] 0/1.

“……”

Dad, can't you just order a takeout and get something to drink?

Even if my current character is not very competitive......

But at least I told you before that I won the lottery and I had a sum of money, you know, right?!

Don't be so provincial!

Pity......

No way.

Dad's character, Qin Fangzhou knows.

A lifetime of thrift, even if the child has money, it will never cost the child a penny, just the white shirt on his body, all of which have been worn for five years, have not been changed after being washed yellow, saying that this dress costs one or two hundred, it is too expensive, and he is reluctant to throw it away.

Qin Fangzhou took a deep breath, threw out some distracting thoughts, and tried to remind himself that he should hurry up and complete this task with no emotion, and when the worldview event is over, everything will be fine!

He walked around the company several times and found that it was really ......

Not only did the water dispenser break, but even the faucet didn't come out of the water.

After wandering around for a long time, he looked at the half cup of cold coffee that the leader had placed on a small round table before he went out.

“……”

Qin Fangzhou couldn't help but pout.

He knows......

Follow the routine of the game's quests, this ......

There is a high probability that it is the so-called "thirst-quenching thing"!

I want my dad to ...... Drink someone else's leftover coffee?

With great confusion, he stepped forward, picked up the half cup of cold coffee, and hesitated for a full minute before putting the cup of cold coffee on his father's table.

Seeing this, my father was overjoyed, picked up the half cup of coffee, raised his head and drank it all, and then forcibly cheered up and wiped his mouth: "Thank you!" I feel energized again! For the sake of my son's wife, I must work overtime and work hard to make money!! ”

After speaking, he clicked on the keyboard, looked full of energy, and got to work.

“……”

Qin Fangzhou's heart trembled slightly.

[Mission completed, gain 30 XP!] 】

After completing this task, the leader who had obviously walked out of the door just now suddenly walked out of the office inside, repeating the action of walking out with half a cup of coffee and throwing a stack of documents: "Who is that, tidy things up, don't rush back to rest first." Since I am working overtime, I will add it to the end. ”

After that, walk to the door, put down the coffee cup, and leave.

At this moment, a player next to him quickly ran over, shouted "who is that" to his father, and then quickly received the task, and when he walked straight to the coffee cup, he glanced at Qin Fangzhou and muttered: "The most disgusting player like you who eats alone." ”

Soon......

All the players around reacted.

"! I said a long time ago, this old man looks like a hard man, and he has a task 100%! ”

"It's been a long time, and you need to shout 'who's that' to trigger!"

"I should have thought of it a long time ago, like this kind of hard-working worker, doing the cheapest job, earning a meager salary, just a tool person, the lowest existence, not worthy of a name at all!"

"I lost a lot of shouts from my uncle and grandfather just now!"

……

As a result, these players seem to have discovered a new continent.

One by one, looking for my dad to receive the task.

Dad was like this, repeatedly throwing documents by the leader, repeatedly drinking the remaining half of the cold coffee that the leader drank, and thanking the group of players with a grateful face, and cheering up repeatedly......

Qin Fangzhou's heart gradually collapsed a little.

He didn't even think of it himself......

When one day his parents become NPCs, he will see such scenes that make him depressed and distressed.

Keep taking deep breaths.

From time to time, there was the ridicule of the players.

"This guy is so miserable, drinking the remaining half of the coffee that others drink, and he looks grateful to Dade!"

"Hahaha, it's good that I didn't become an NPC, otherwise it would have been too miserable!"

"That's not necessarily, some people, waste is waste, whether it is a player or an NPC, they can only be trampled on by people at the bottom of society!"

"This guy is addicted to drinking saliva and drinking! Generally, the private life of the leaders of this kind of private enterprise is very chaotic, and I don't know if there is an infectious disease, if there is, tsk......

"Haha, you're thinking too much, can NPCs be considered human? Who qualifies for disease. ”

Qin Fangzhou's green tendons began to beat.

He's ...... now.

Very, very, very very want to blast this group of players!

And at this time......

Suddenly a bold idea came to him.

The head of the chicken nest once said......

Quark candy can make you less affected by some of the worldview events.

What if ......

Thinking about it, Qin Fangzhou had already reached out and pulled out his pocket.

I found a quark candy.

……

There is no mistake
