Chapter 243: Chatting
Lang Tianya entered the cave, only to see that in the largest cave room, there were four guys sitting comfortably on a long stone chair covered with a broken mattress, each wearing a full-coverage helmet on his head, and he could neither see their expressions nor see what they were doing.
Among them, Gu Bao's helmet has obviously been modified, the shell originally designed for humans has been removed, the complex components inside the helmet are exposed, and the inner tank of the helmet has been artificially enlarged to fit Gu Bao's head shape, but it is only barely covered on Gu Bao's slightly flat head. Probably because he was afraid that Gubao would fall off if he moved around, there were tapes around the helmet that fixed it, and one of them also went around Gubao's chin. Gubao looks like someone has been mischievous and sticks a wire.
A guy sitting on the far left of the stone chair caught Lang Tianya's attention. The man was very thin, wearing a fancy down jacket on his upper body, a pair of pants with many pockets on his lower body, a plaster cast on his right forearm, and a dark mark on his neck under the helmet, which seemed to be a strangulation mark. He sat there and muttered words as if in a dream.
Lang Tianya had doubts, and couldn't help but look at the three people and one monster in the cave again. Needless to say, it's clear at a glance. The guy sitting on the far right is tall and strong, with a leather coat on his upper body and fat jeans on his lower body, obviously Qian Feihu. The guy sitting in the middle across Gubao is of moderate stature, with a black jacket on his upper body and a pair of cargo pants on his lower body, obviously Hu Lu. But the thin man in plaster on the far left is definitely not Han Gang, who is this guy?
Lang Tianya looked at these guys wearing helmets, as if they had been drugged, talking to themselves for a while, dancing with their hands for a while, and couldn't figure out what they were doing for a while. Anyway, he was not in a hurry, so he simply sat on the side and boiled the water with the palm of his hand. After a few moments, the water was boiling, and he took out the tea leaves, brewed a pot, and watched the guys do something as he drank.
He had only drunk half of this pot of tea when he heard movement outside the cave, and after a while, the stone door was pushed open, and Han Gang walked in with a large bag of food and a box of mineral water. It turned out that he came back by taxi, and the speed was not fast, plus he went to the supermarket to buy things, but he didn't come back early yet. Han Gang put his things aside, came over and sat down beside Lang Tianya, and said, "Boss, it's too early for you to come back", then reached out and took the teapot and poured a cup of tea, and then drank it all.
Lang Tianya glanced at Han Gang and said, "You don't have to call Sha Ping anymore, I don't want to look for him." Han Gang didn't ask why, just nodded.
Then Lang Tianya pointed to the thin man in plaster and said, "Who is this guy?" How did you get here? Also, what is this on their heads? ”
Han Gang laughed and said, "This is a newly developed game, a virtual reality game specifically for martial artists. You can play with this VR headset, and it's exciting. And the most amazing thing is that this kind of game doesn't use the network, not even the usual telecommunication lines, anyway, I don't know what principle it uses to work, and it doesn't use electricity, magical, just wear it on your head and enter the internal force to play. ”
"Where's this skinny man?"
"He was picked up by a lonely treasure. When we retreated from the teahouse, Gu Bao found this guy hanging from a tree, so Gu Bao stepped forward to rescue him and sent him here. Fortunately, he didn't wake up halfway, otherwise even if he didn't die after hanging, he would have been scared to death when he saw Gubao carrying him.
"After a few of us rescued him, he told him what had happened to him. What kind of e-sports player is he, I heard him say that he is a professional video gamer. Originally, he was a poor child from the countryside, and he had just realized a little internal strength, so he was a little self-confident, and he borrowed money to buy a lot of equipment before he earned money. Later, when people collected debts, he demolished the east wall and made up the west wall, and finally owed a butt of loan sharks. Because he always couldn't pay the money, he was finally discounted by others. When he went to the hospital for a check-up, the doctor said that his hand could no longer regain its original dexterity. In other words, his esports dream is over. He had nowhere else to go, so he hid in the nearby village for a few days.
Yesterday, he saw an ad online saying that there was a new type of game being tested, but players were required to have martial arts qualifications. So the kid happily went to the nearest test site to try it according to the address on the advertisement, and after he didn't want to go, he put on the helmet, only to find that his internal strength was just not enough, and he couldn't take the helmet with him, so they drove him out. So the child couldn't think about it for a while on the way back, so he went to the mountain and hanged himself, just in time for Gubao to be saved. ”
After listening to Han Gang's story, Lang Tianya glanced at the thin man again, and suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Then where did these helmets come from?" It can't be bought, right? ”
Han Gang trembled and said in a trembling voice, "Boss, don't worry, I didn't spend the money in your account." ”
"It didn't cost me money, so who spent it? You bought it out of your own pocket? Lang Tianya didn't believe it.
"It's not ......, we didn't spend money."
"What does it mean that it doesn't cost money? Don't babble, explain it all at once, how did these helmets come about! Lang Tianya's tone became stern.
"Last night, after listening to Xiao Qi's words, we were very angry, and we felt that this game company was too deceitful, so we rushed to them overnight, and we ...... Only...... I came back with a few helmets. ”
"Bang" Lang Tianya slapped on the stone table angrily, fortunately he was still sober and reacted quickly, and when the palm was about to fall on the table, he hurriedly retracted his strength and did not break the table. These stone tables were cut out by himself with a sword, and if they were broken, he had to make them again, which was a bit uneconomical.
"If you don't fight for three days, you will go to the house and uncover the tiles! A few of you eat, drink and have fun every day, that's it, and then you are still addicted to gambling, and you have been taught repeatedly, and now you are okay, you have started stealing again, is the next step to kill people and set fires? You quickly wake up these guys, send the helmets back, and apologize and compensate for the damage. ”
Lang Tianya wanted to step forward and kick these guys who were paralyzed on the stone chair to wake up, but he was afraid that this kind of game would cause any adverse consequences if the player woke up while it was in progress, so he didn't dare to act rashly.
Han Gang hurriedly took out a helmet from a box in the corner and was about to buckle it on his head.
Lang Tianya thought that he wanted to put on a helmet and evade responsibility, so he scolded: "What are you doing? ”
Han Gang held his helmet and said with a sad face: "I'll go to the game and call them out." With that, he was going to buckle his helmet to his head.
"Wait!" Lang Tianya shouted, "Do you still have extra helmets?" ”
"Yes! Yes! Han Gang diligently took out another well-packaged helmet from the box, opened the package neatly, and handed the brand-new helmet inside to the boss.
"I'll go in and have a look, too." After speaking, Lang Tianya put the helmet on his head.
