Weird Talker

Chapter 18 Chatting in the Car
The car went into the mountain.

The road is a dirt road with potholes, which circles through the mountains and forests.

"I don't know if the games of the other two groups have started." On the way, Shi Lianshan who was driving suddenly muttered.

Qin Manjiang seemed a little interested and asked, "Is there any difference between the challenge mode and the exploration mode?"

While arranging the tools he brought, He Jian said, "What are you asking? It's actually not complicated. The so-called challenge mode refers to the place where you have been assigned to play ghost talk games in the past, but the entire army was wiped out. That kind of game where no one The strange story of people surviving will be considered extremely challenging, but similarly, the rewards will be more generous after completing the challenge mode.”

"Reward?" Qin Manjiang heard an unfamiliar word.

"Since it's a game, of course there will be rewards!" This time, several people looked at him, "Don't you get rewards for your novice level?"

"It's an icon of a pupil. It's called a pupil. It appears in the personal interface of the mobile phone. Every time you play the game, as long as you can survive, you can get some pupil rewards more or less. The same goes for the ten seats. The ranking is based on the number of spiritual pupils."

Facing the weird gazes of several people, Qin Manjiang thought about it carefully, the icon in the shape of a pupil?
Soul pupil?

He was pretty sure he'd never seen anything like that.

"I've never seen it, not even the novice level."

"No way, is it a game bug?" Shi Lianshan was quite fashionable, and he even knew this kind of saying.

"I...know a possibility." Liu Jingqing whispered suddenly.

After seeing the slightly puzzled look on Qin Manjiang's face, the female writer said: "This has happened before, but... it didn't happen in a personal novice level, but a strange talk in multiplayer mode. That time, Everyone relied on one person to escape, achieved the escape of all members, and after leaving the strange talk area, that person got all the spiritual pupils, and the others didn't have any."

"Ah? There is such a thing? Who is it?"

Liu Jingqing's expression changed slightly, she lowered her head and said in a low voice, "That person is... Yang."

阳！
Leader of the leaderboard, well-deserved No.1.

"Yes...it's him," Shi Lianshan also nodded subconsciously, "That's no wonder, but Xiao Qin's novice level will not have other people participating, how could he be separated from the pupil..."

However, when Shi Lianshan said this, Qin Manjiang was slightly taken aback, no... other people participated in his novice level.

Not only that, but that person also made great contributions, not only allowing him to avoid danger many times at the critical moment, but also leading a lot of clues, and even in the end...it was that person who threw him out of the fire—

Li Xi is right.

If Li Xi is still a player and still alive, then it makes sense that he didn't get any spiritual pupil rewards in the novice level...

However, he obviously turned into a ghost and completely disappeared from the real world.

what is the problem……

Qin Manjiang frowned slightly, but he didn't seem to notice that someone behind him was secretly watching him.

"What's the use of those spiritual pupils?" Qin Manjiang asked.

"Of course!" Shi Lianshan immediately became interested when he heard this question, "Spirit pupils can be exchanged for some extremely weird but useful one-time items. Improve the survival rate, unfortunately... a player is permanently limited to three purchases."

"What's the pity?" He Jian interrupted Shi Lianshan, "Xiao Qin, don't listen to him for now, even if it's a one-time item, we can't exchange it in a short time."

Shi Lianshan said bitterly: "That's right, players like me and Mr. He, who have experienced the ghost talk game three times including the novice level, have only saved about five spiritual pupils until now, but a one-time item. You need ten spiritual pupils!"

"If you want me to say, our greatest hope this time is still in the tenth seat, he is in the top ten! Maybe he even has permanent props..."

"Permanent props?" Qin Manjiang was even more surprised. In addition to disposable props, there are also such things as permanent props?
"Well, like a one-time item, it can't confront the ghost head-on, and it can only be used once in a game, but it can play a very special role in the ghost talk game! For example... It is said that among the top ten seats, the The player who is called a doctor has a permanent item that is a cursed scalpel. The knife has only one effect. After stabbing it into the heart, the stabbed person will not die within half an hour anyway. But half an hour Afterwards, if you don’t get rid of the strange talk, the victim will be immediately backlashed by the curse of the scalpel, and there will be no place for burial.”

When Shi Lianshan mentioned the doctor's permanent props, he couldn't help but envy in his tone.

"I can't die for half an hour, even if I'm chopped into meat paste... That kind of thing is really frightening and fascinating..."

Speaking of this, everyone was silent for a moment.

"Forget it, don't think about that, it's the only item that can be purchased with a full hundred spirit pupils, and it's generated according to the player's own characteristics, it won't be repeated, and only those outstanding people in the top ten can have it, right? ..."

"By the way, I haven't told you about the exploration mode yet." As expected of a teacher, He Jian talked about the business in an orderly manner without missing anything. The strange story whose source has been found out by the game. For example, the sick sheep this time, didn’t there be an opening speech? This shows that the game has actually understood the basis of this strange story. Similar to this, it is in most cases , the game we need to play."

"But the exploration mode... In short, it's strange stories and curses that even the game can't detect. If it also has an opening sentence, I believe it will be full of bloody question marks. The horror of that mode has far surpassed ours. The scope of understanding. I think this is also the reason why the chief player will be selected."

Qin Manjiang finally understood the difference, but this aroused his curiosity even more. This kind of pattern... really seems like someone is controlling everything in the background.

Suddenly, Qin Manjiang looked into the rearview mirror, stared at Chen Ping, and asked: "Excuse me, you have been secretly watching me since just now, what's the matter?"

Chen Ping seemed to be taken aback, he waved his hands repeatedly, and explained: "No... no, I just think you look familiar."

"Really?" Qin Manjiang smiled, and seemed to agree with this statement, "We may have met somewhere, can you remember?"

Chen Ping shook his head and said, "No...not in Fucheng."

Qin Manjiang became interested: "But, I have never left Fucheng."

Chen Ping shook his head again: "I... I just think you are very similar to him, not that you are him."

"Can you be so sure without confirming that I have been staying in Fucheng?" Qin Manjiang felt more and more that Chen Ping had something to hide from him.

Seeing that Chen Ping hesitated to speak, Shi Lianshan couldn't help urging: "You just talk, and no one will eat you."

Hearing this, Chen Ping quietly raised his head and glanced at Qin Manjiang again, and said, "I... I was studying at a university in another city. In one of the classrooms of our university, there was a picture of a young professor. He really looks like you. It's like! It's just... exactly the same."

"However, he has been dead for 20 years."

After Chen Ping finished speaking, he felt a lot more relaxed: "So, I was just surprised that there are two completely unrelated people in the world who look so similar, so I couldn't help but look at two more people. Eye."

Qin Manjiang seemed to be stunned after hearing Chen Ping's words.

His waist straightened, his mouth closed immediately, his eyelids drooped, and then opened again.

Then, he slowly raised his hand to get the iced coffee in front of him.

The twisting of his neck was extremely unnatural, and the frequency of eyelid blinking also became much faster at this moment.

"呲-"

He pulled the ring of the coffee filling, raised his hand mechanically, and put the coffee into his mouth.

"Gudong—gudong—"

Constant swallowing frequency, as precise as programmed.

This weird gesture scared everyone!

Everyone on the way to the strange village thought that Qin Manjiang was possessed by a ghost, and Shi Lianshan stepped on the brakes!

"Hey! Something's wrong with him!"

Shi Lianshan was about to open the car door and run out.

At this time, Qin Manjiang put down the coffee, his expression and movements, everything returned to the original.

Even with some doubts in his expression, he turned his head to look at everyone and asked:

"what happened?"
