In order not to be depressed, let's change our tastes and look at the city from a new perspective.

Strictly speaking, Shanghai is not a tourist city because there are no attractions. Obviously at the mouth of the sea, but I can't find a few good beaches. But there are a lot of people who come here every year to play, because there are so many tricks to play here. There are a lot of things that you can't play in towns and small cities. Not to mention the highest level, just talking about the annual China-Joy I don't know how many dead houses (for example, me...... Thousands of miles away.

Therefore, if you go to Shanghai to play in the scenic spots, you can save it, but if you have a good time to eat, drink and drink, it is also a good place. Qi Xi asked Qi Meng out again, this time, there was no other person who disturbed the situation, and finally stopped the distracting plot and returned to the urban women's theater. The two are like ordinary female white-collar workers who get off work, scurrying around the streets and alleys of Shanghai, eating and drinking, and having all kinds of joy.

The expressions on his faces were also a lot more relaxed. Looking at Qi Xi, there was a feeling that he could finally breathe after a long dull period.

When women go shopping, the core content is nothing more than food and clothes, and if you pick another one, it will be a movie. The two bought a big bag of snacks and went straight to the cinema. The two came to the film schedule and quickly scanned the film from top to bottom.

"This "Darling" seems to have a good review, and "Golden Age" seems to be okay. Eh, and "Heart Flower Road", Meng Meng, which one shall we watch?" "I want to watch "Kuiba 3". ”

"Cartoons, haven't you always been a literary fan, when did you start paying attention to cartoons?" "Hehe, I have to pay attention to cartoons from now on." To be exact. Hero movies, anime, manga. I have to pay attention to all the two-dimensional and three-dimensional things that otaku pay attention to. ”

"Huh?" from a tall and small fresh yoga teacher to a dead house. This change is really big enough, Qi Xi was very surprised: "Why?"

"Well...... "I can't sue you for the time being." In short, let's go, let's go, let's watch "Kuiba 3" today!"

So, very rarely, the two girls walked into the screening hall of the basic dead house area together. For Qi Xi, this movie, which she has not seen the first two at all, is lackluster and does not arouse her interest at all. And for Qi Meng. She didn't seem to be very interested, but for some reason she had to seem to get it. It's like people who are not interested in exams and have to do their homework.

"Mengmeng, you won't have a boyfriend, right?" Qi Xi's main focus was still on chatting: "Could it be that you found a dead house boyfriend, so you added your house knowledge?"

However, there are not many boys who are not at home, so let's find out in advance, this is also a kind of knowledge, and I can be regarded as a rainy day. Qi Meng didn't want to talk more about this topic, and she suddenly remembered something. Gleefully said, "Do you remember the last time you watched a movie with Fool Qi?"

"How don't you remember. Qi Xi couldn't help but laugh. At the end of January 2013, "Cloud Atlas" was released. After dinner, the three of them decided to go to the movies. The two women went straight to the cinema, leaving Yang Qi to clean up the dishes and chopsticks in the apartment, doing the duty of an affordable man. After the two changed the group tickets, they found that it was still early, so they went shopping. I was hungry while shopping, so the two who had just had dinner ran to eat hot pot.

"At the end of that meal, I found that I forgot to bring the money, or I called Fool Qi to save the driver. You don't know, when he heard me say 'help', that reaction, that tone, poof! Also, when he ran to the hot pot restaurant with the money, that expression, I can't forget it until now!" Qi Xi said happily, Qi Meng also laughed exaggeratedly, that stupid thing was a classic in this life, and it completely confirmed the nickname of "idiot" and "stupid", and he couldn't take it off if he wanted to.

"Well, I still remember that day when Fool Qi was very happy, and he was elated all the way. Qi Meng sighed, and then glanced at Qi Xi: "I just didn't expect that you didn't forget those things." ”

"Hmm......" The smile on Qi Xi's face faded, and he sighed with a little embarrassment: "There are some things that are not easy to forget." ”

Looking at Qi Xi's side face, Qi Meng wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, just sighed and continued to watch the movie. The movie ended quickly, and the two walked out of the theater and decided to go around. "By the way, it is said that there are comic exhibitions and COS performances these days, let's go check it out!" "You're really sinking into the otaku world." "Let's go, let's go, it doesn't hurt to know a little more. ”

I don't think cosplay is an unfamiliar word for most of the people who live in the otaku world. There are so many cos photos on the Internet, but most of them are indispensable to two magic weapons, that is, makeup girls and PS. The beautiful Diao Chan on the Internet may not be what is going on before the software processes it. But for a real comic convention, it's really clear whether COS is good or bad. The costumes and props are not exquisite, the plot performance is not in place, and the most important thing is whether the coser's base material is good.

Especially for some characters with a very special appearance, they require a skin. If you can have both form and spirit, then it is a real god cos. It's a big world, and there's a lot to learn, but I'll skip it all here, and I'll just talk about the play situation of the two girls. This unofficial comic con attracts a lot of people, but the venue is huge, so it doesn't seem crowded.

The two walked all the way, and Qi Xi felt that he was also an eye-opener. Because it is not a pure commercial performance, the location of the coser gate is very free, and visitors need to launch their own exploration desire to find and discover. You might just take a few more steps into a dark corner and you'll be surprised by an Assassin's Creed coser bursting out.

"Eh, isn't this the 'big drum' brother, why didn't you get out of the cos? Didn't you spend a lot of effort DIY on that nano combat suit?"

"Hey, don't mention it, I thought my own set of battle uniforms for the island crisis was pretty good, but I didn't expect that there was a lonely island god cos 'steel body' in Shanghai, so I wouldn't come out and be embarrassed. Now, we can only help the rest of our regiment. ”

"Is the Iron Man really that godly?"

"Super god, absolute god!" I took a picture. Look. Isn't it. It's just the real thing!"

The exchange between the two otaku attracted Qi Xi's attention, and Qi Meng glanced at Qi Xi: "What's the matter, are you interested? With that, he picked up Qi Xi and walked over. A beautiful woman appeared, and the two otaku immediately became excited. Qi Xi hesitated for a moment and then said, "Can you show me the photo of the god cos of the nano combat suit you just said?"

"No problem, little meaning!" The otaku immediately took out a pad and handed it to the two: "Look, this is it." That's right. I also made a comparison chart, look at the back, this is made by a dead house abroad, this is made by myself, and this is made of steel, it is a world of difference!"

The two looked down and saw that there was a street photographer in the pad. A man in a black super sci-fi combat suit stood in the middle of the crowd with a gun in his hand. Comparing the two photos that followed, the costume in the first one definitely doesn't have the feeling of "it's made of sponge". The bundle of external muscle-like fiber bundles really contains strong tension and texture. Even the metallic sheen of the sunlight. It's all so real.

"It's like a real combat suit. The otaku, nicknamed the drum, sighed in admiration: "Even that gun doesn't look like a prop, as if it can really shoot bullets and kill people at any time." Such a god cos. I'm afraid I won't be able to reach it in my lifetime. Then, he glanced left and right, and said in a pretended low voice: "Now, I guess that the 'Iron Body' has crossed directly from the Lonely Island Crisis!

Qi Xi ignored him, looked at the photo carefully and looked at it very attentively, the otaku saw that she was particularly interested, so he simply passed her a copy.

"By the way, I heard that your group has a big event today, known as a 'extremely gorgeous' commercial performance, what are you going to do?" The otaku next to him gave a look, indicating that he was a compliment and a wingman.

The drum immediately understood, and while nodding slightly, his eyebrows flew and danced: "You're really right, our group has a big operation this time, and it's going to be a 'thunderbolt'!" Seeing whether the two girls understood or not, they immediately introduced: "It's a popular drama series in Taiwan, the costumes are super gorgeous, the actors are super beautiful, by the way, there are mysterious secret weapons, it's absolutely amazing! Come and see, come on, come on, it's about to start, there are a lot of people over there!"

Under the repeated invitation of the big drum, the two walked to the commercial performance stage. This place is crowded, and there are really a lot of people waiting, and it seems that this cos group is still very famous. But the two girls were not fans of this group, and after waiting for about ten minutes, they began to shop casually, and after three or two steps, they actually went backstage. In the empty corner at the back of the stage, Qi Meng noticed a person.

When Qi Meng saw that person, she was even slightly startled, because the person was extremely tall, and his majestic body had a strong sense of oppression even when he was sitting, and his height was no less than two meters. But his face was as pale as death, and he stayed quietly in the corner. Wearing an old and torn military coat, with an old hat, and a white-faced steamed bun in his hand, he was gnawing dryly. This silent man is out of place compared to the whole cheering and noisy comic show. This army coat, old hat, and dried steamed bun are also out of place in this bustling and wealthy city.

This person suddenly choked, but he didn't seem to have any drink, so he could only raise his fist and beat his chest. Knock, knock, it's like a muffled drum, which makes people's hearts tremble slightly.

The two girls glanced at each other, walked up at the same time, and Qi Meng took out a bottle from her bag: "Big brother, drink this." ”

"Huh?" the man turned his head and could see that he was almost forty years old, and perhaps it would be more appropriate to call him uncle. There was a red mark on the left side of his face, which looked fierce and fierce, but it could be seen that it was makeup. If you ignore these horrible makeup, this person should be a calm person. There was a tenacity in those eyes.

He looked at the two girls, then nodded and opened his mouth, his voice deep and dry: "Okay, thank you, girl." He took the water, unscrewed the lid and drank it, and drank it in a few seconds.

"Big brother, do you also want to cosplay? What kind of character do you cos?"

"I don't know what the role is, I haven't played a game, but I'll play whatever they ask me to play. ”

"Eh, big brother, are you an actor?"

"I'm not an actor, I'm a soldier. "When I say this. A strong sense of rigidity instantly rose from this uncle's body. But then he shook his head and sighed. This sigh gives the feeling of heroic twilight: "But. Already discharged. ”

Qi Xi was also interested: "I don't think you're here to play, you're here for ......"

"Make money. The uncle's answer was simple and direct, not literary at all: "The day before yesterday, I led my daughter out to play, and I was seen by the young people here, so I was asked to perform the show." He said he would give 100 at a time, so I came. He threw it away, and the empty bottle flew into the trash can five meters away. "It's not much, though. But if you perform a few more times, you can exchange the ticket money. ”

"Tickets?"

"The 'Demon Capital Corpse King' that will be exhibited in a few days, my girl likes that, so I'll take her to see it when the time comes. ”

As he was talking, the otaku drum rushed over, and when he saw the three of them here, he first greeted the two girls, and then pounced on the uncle and said, "Brother Zhen, it's your turn! You are our secret weapon, with you, as long as you take two steps on stage, you will definitely shock all the audience!"

It turns out that this uncle is the secret weapon.

"Hmm. Good. The uncle stood up like a mountain rising from the ground. With a height of more than two meters, it can be called a shield from the sky. The large black shadow instantly enveloped the otaku drum. In the sound of the otaku swallowing his saliva, the uncle reached out and tore off his old hat and took off his military coat. Beneath the hat was a fierce bald head, and under the coat was a body as pale as a dead man and as majestic as a mountain.

Such a body can take anyone's breath away.

"Zhen Zhen Zhen, Brother Zhen Zhen, I'm about to be shocked to death by you!" the otaku almost drooled and pounced, and then frowned again, guiding a little bit: "But Brother Zhen, your expression is not quite right, you are too calm." Be more ferocious, more murderous, and more angry! Brother Zhen, do you have anything to hate, think about those things!"

"Hate?" the majestic man lowered his head and smiled, and there was a lot of bitterness in this smile, and then when he raised his head again, there were two flames burning in those eyes. Intense anger erupted as if it were about to burn people's hearts. He glanced at the otaku casually, his tight mouth opened, and his voice was hoarse and heavy, like thunder in the distant sky: "Is it enough?"

"Uh-uh-uhh......h This look is so shocking.

"Thank you, both of you for today's water. The uncle said hello to the two girls, then took a breath and strode away. The majestic body walked all the way, and even made a dull sound when stepping on the ground. The three of them watched in a daze as he turned the corner and walked onto the stage, followed by a series of loud shouts.

Some are called "God of War!", and some are called "Kuiye!".

Some are called "Abandon the total and destroy it!", and some are called "Kuiye slaughters the gods!".

In the end, it turned into a rhythmic continuous roar, and the flash of the photo was not heard for a moment.

The people on the other side of the stage have gone crazy.

"Form and spirit!" The otaku suddenly came back to his senses, and ran away shouting all the way: "This is the most divine Kui Ye cos in this century!

The two girls stayed where they were, and in this corner where they were lonely again, Qi Meng suddenly said something irrelevant: "Xixi, I still can't help but want to ask one thing: What is the matter with your so-called marriage this time?" She looked back at Qi Xi, her expression was serious and stern: "There are no accompanying relatives, no colleagues who congratulate Xi, and even no news - the bride is about to get married, but she has never seen her wedding dress?" Xixi, this is not a marriage, marriage should not be like this, tell me what the hell is going on. ”

This time, Qi Xi didn't smile anymore, her eyes dodged for a moment, and then she glared back strongly: "Then what's the matter with Yang Qi? Why did he come here? Why did you bring Yang Qi here when you know the cause and effect?"

"Shouldn't he come?" Qi Meng was agitated by this, and immediately widened his eyes and raised his eyebrows: "Xixi, you and I know what kind of person Fool Qi is. This person is stubborn and nostalgic, and the most important thing is that he is still very innocent in terms of feelings, super innocent! You are his first love!"

First love, Qi Xi turned his face sideways, and then glared back: "So, are you helping him over there?"

"I won't help anyone! If I don't tell him, if I don't let him come, he may never get around that hurdle. Then again. What about you. Can you easily get out?" Qi Meng grabbed Qi Xi's shoulder. Said solemnly: "Come, sue me, what is the so-called 'marriage' that is not right?"

"This ...... I can't sue you for this. Qi Xi finally sighed after hesitating, and then his expression and voice turned cold: "You two are ...... now." Live together...... will help me with a sentence. Sue Yang Qi, don't call me 'Nerd Xi' in the future. The so-called 'Nerd Xi' is a mistake and she has disappeared. Alright, let's play here today, I'm tired. Went first. With that, Qi Xi walked away.

"Xixi, I'll just remind you!" Qi Meng stood in place and looked at Qi Xi's back, anger flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly raised her voice and said, "Don't forget, the original sentence of 'like', but you said it first!"

You said it first!

Let's go first!

Said ......

The echo vibrated back and forth in the venue, and Qi Xi's figure trembled as he walked, and then he quickened his pace and walked away.

Qi Meng stayed where he was, puffing his waist angrily, and a flame in his heart didn't know where to go. In the end, he slapped himself on the thigh with hatred: "Why the hell do I have to fight for that fool? I shouldn't have known him in the first place!"

Her gaze unconsciously fell on the road outside, and there was a large poster on an advertising stand. There is an advertisement written on it: Iron Tomb Bronze Tomb, Yin Coffin Golden Coffin. The ancient silk road, the mysterious identity, the thousand-year-old corpse king wrapped in jade - on October 15th, I will meet you in the magic capital.

"Demon Corpse King?"

At the same time, when the sun was shining outside, in a research institute, a white-haired old man was nervously consulting various materials, and it was the old professor who went to Dunhuang to witness the opening of the ancient coffin of the jade corpse. Now, he was under the lamp, concentrating on something. But in two months, the old professor looked a little more haggard.

"Professor He, aren't you resting? A female assistant came over with a cup of coffee and put it on the table: "Are you still studying the jade corpse?"

Professor He put down the book in his hand, took a sip of coffee, and said, "I'm a little eyebrow-raising." ”

"Oh?!Have you overcome the problem of mysterious ancient characters!" The mysterious characters engraved on the back of the lid of the ancient coffin have become a major topic in the archaeological community, and now countless scholars are studying it day and night, but there is no result for the time being. Even the name of the tomb owner, the one in the middle of the three words, no one figured out. So, don't blame the female assistant for being excited. She immediately looked at the book that the old professor had put down, it was not a tome, but a miscellaneous treatise: "The Shadow of the Kushan Dynasty".

"Kushan Dynasty?" the female assistant thought of the information of this ancient dynasty: an ancient country in Central Asia, adjacent to the Western Regions of China. "Does it have anything to do with the Kushan Dynasty?"

"Yes, it's not overcome, it's just a clue. Professor He rubbed his temples and slowly explained: "In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the Kushan Empire arose, and it participated in Asia-Europe trade as an important part of the Silk Road for a long time. During this era, merchants from the two countries traveled along the Silk Road and maintained trade for a long time. Just as people in the army will form a unique 'military dialect', for the convenience of communication, a 'secondary language' has been formed on the Silk Road for a long time. This language has only been circulated in that area for a short time, and the historical materials are basically superficial and superficial. But it is this kind of writing on the lid of this jade coffin. ”

"You, have you really deciphered the identity of the jade corpse!" The assistant was instantly excited and couldn't help himself: "He, he, who is he!"

"I don't know. Professor He shook his head: "That kind of language is too rare and has no record, so I can only use the ancient characters of the Kushan Dynasty and ancient Chinese to slowly restore it." At present, the progress is not much, and the assistance of experts in ancient writing is needed. The application has been filed, and it is not known when a reply will be given. ”

"Oh......" The assistant lowered his head in disappointment.

"But I already know what the word is. Professor He pointed to the name mark that everyone was most concerned about: "Although it may not be completely correct, it can guarantee a ninety percent accuracy." ”

The assistant immediately became as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood: "Yes, sue me, professor, who is buried in this tomb? What does this word mean?"

"This word is ......" Speaking of this, Professor He's expression was slightly obscure, and his tone was a little lower: "It's a 'death' word." He paused for a moment, and said slowly in a contemplative tone: "The three words left in the lid of the coffin of this jade corpse are 'black, death, and emperor'. ”

Black, Dead, Emperor.

As soon as the three words came out, the female assistant suddenly had a peculiar feeling. It's indoors, but it's like a cold wind blowing through the body. The Black Death Emperor, for some reason, hearing this name, and thinking of the face of the jade-wrapped corpse, the female assistant suddenly felt a shudder. As an archaeologist, this is a very rare situation.

So, the female assistant said goodbye to Professor He and decided to bask in the sun to find some yang.

After she left, in the silent empty room, Professor He took out the broken jade piece with tweezers. Looking closely at this fragment again, there seems to be something obscure within the jade-colored luster.

"What the hell is this...... Black Death Emperor, who is it......" The last trace of relief on Professor He's face also faded, and all that was left was Yan Sù's worry: "'Demon Capital Corpse King'? What are you thinking about, why do you have to hold any exhibition here! This is Shanghai, there are more than 10 million people! What if something happens...... No, protective measures must be added and special glass must be used for isolation. ”

When Professor He was anxious, in the unmanned cultural relics warehouse, in the large glass cabinet, a jade figure was lying quietly.

Suddenly, there was a crackling sound, and the jade man's forehead fell to the position of the jade piece, and a thin slit cracked. (To be continued......)
