Chapter 999 Deadly Clay Pot Rice!
Lin Baici and Gu Qingqiu stayed in the Cage City for quite some time, but they were not physically tired. They took a brief rest in the restaurant and then went straight to the casino lobby.
“Who among you has played it before?”
Gu Qingqiu observed the guests. Given the environment in Jiuzhou, Lin Baici and Hua Yueyu definitely wouldn't have a chance to enter the casino.
Hua Yueyu shook her head.
"I played it and lost tens of thousands of dollars."
Xia Hongyao had tried this kind of game before when she went abroad, and she had no interest in it at all.
“I’ve played it!”
Li Yintong raised her hand: "But I'm not good at it!"
"I've played it before, but my level is average."
Every time Jin Yingzhen enters a place like this, he acts like a money-spending kid: "Brother Lin has absorbed the luck of the gambling god in the Kowloon Pavilion, plus his intelligence, so he should be able to win big, right?"
Everyone looked at Lin Baici.
"Would you like to play a little?"
Gu Qingqiu joked.
“No!”
Lin Baici has a decent IQ and may have good luck, but he has never gambled before. Even though he is familiar with the rules, he doesn't want to get involved.
Lin Baici has always felt that if he wants to be competent at a job, he must accumulate a lot of experience to become a veteran.
The same is true for gambling.
When a newcomer enters a casino on his first day, he wants to make a killing, either by making a movie or cheating.
"Then I'll try it!"
Gu Qingqiu was playing with a few chips in his hand, strolling around and looking for an opportunity. When he thought it was right, he would go down and play a round.
An hour and a half later, Gu Qingqiu had played all the games.
"Let's go!"
Gu Qingqiu left and went to the restaurant again.
"how do you feel?"
Xia Hongyao was curious: "Is it simple?"
She saw Gu Qingqiu making a small profit of ten chips playing Texas Hold'em.
"It's hard!"
Gu Qingqiu shared his experience: "Unless you play all-in and win 100 chips in one hand, you will lose everything you have in the end!"
"For this kind of gambling game that relies on probability, I always feel that my luck is reduced as soon as I play it!"
"Anyway, I feel terrible!"
"If it were real life, I would go home, take a shower and go to bed!"
"Whoever plays loses!"
Gu Qingqiu looked at Lin Baici and said, "You have always had good luck. You can go up and give it a try!"
"I might as well go play games and earn chips!"
Lin Baici shook his head. He felt that it was easier to purify the pollution of rules.
"So what are we waiting for?"
Xia Hongyao was already impatient: "Shall we start right away?"
"I also need to go!"
Jin Yingzhen and Li Yintong said in unison.
"noob!"
Hua Yueyu looked at Lin Baici with eyes full of pleading.
"You three stay!"
Seeing that Gao Limei was about to speak, Lin Baici interrupted her directly: "No room for negotiation, it's too dangerous in there!"
Even someone with such a high IQ as Gu Qingqiu feels that gambling has no future, so the only thing left is to purify the pollution from the rules.
Everyone returned to the game hall.
Most of the game cabins that were used by people were guarded by their families, and those that were not were just entering the game together.
These people looked worried, and the sound of sobbing made the atmosphere here very depressing.
"After you enter, don't let the system randomly choose. Choose the one called 'Claypot Rice'."
Lin Baici warned.
When he finished "Cage City", he specifically looked through the game catalog to prepare for this operation.
"Ok!"
Xia Hongyao nodded and repeated the name silently several times.
"The lowest difficulty?"
Gu Qingqiu frowned. She had also seen it: "Is it a little low?"
"I plan to play all those games from now on!"
After Lin Baici finished speaking, he was afraid of being eavesdropped, so he leaned close to Gu Qingqiu's ear and said, "Do you think that after we have completed so many games, will the ghost ship gods show up?"
Gu Qingqiu understood Lin Baici's intention immediately.
Starting from a game with a higher difficulty level, although you will gain more chips, it is also more dangerous. Even if you don't die, the consumption will be great, which is not good for the next battle.
If we start with a simple game, although the chips we gain are few, given the strength of this team, it should be easy to win.
If we connect ten of them at once, maybe the ghost ship god will get restless. As long as he comes to us, we can fight or negotiate!
Gu Qingqiu suddenly became excited at the thought of being able to fight against a god.
Lin Baici and the other two entered the game cabin and after following the selection process, the pollution game began.
……
Lin Baici opened his eyes and found himself on a busy street.
Deafening singing came from the roadside audio-visual store.
She leaned on my shoulder, her breathing sounded in my ear!
A gentleman tries to put out a fire but cannot blow away the warm smoke!
Listening to the dynamic pop music and looking at the surging crowds on the street, all of whom were dressed extremely fashionably and beautifully, Lin Baici estimated that it should be the 1980s or 1990s.
The entire city was not the dilapidated, dirty, and old city that Lin Baici had seen before. It exuded the atmosphere of a big city.
However, compared with the modern life of Lin Baici, it is still not good enough.
Lin Baici looked around and didn't see Xia Hongyao and Gu Qingqiu, so he was not in a hurry.
Although everyone chose the same game, they were not teleported together, which is normal.
Lin Baici walked into the video store.
The young boss with shoulder-length hair looked up at Lin Baici, then continued to lower his head and tinker with a tape recorder with a screwdriver.
His long hair gives him an artistic air.
Lin Baici saw that there were no customers in the store and walked towards the counter.
"Boss, do you have any recording equipment here?"
"professional?"
"No, just record something!"
"Have!"
The boss with long hair knocked on the counter: "CD player, repeater, Walkman, and the latest MP3 player, all of which can record anything!"
Lin Baici was dazzled by what he saw. Smart phones have become popular in modern society. Not to mention listening to music, even watching videos is done online.
Lin Baici had only seen the things that the boss with shawl hair said in some nostalgic videos on Bilibili.
"What do you want to record?"
The boss with long hair looked at Lin Baici's clothes and estimated his purchasing power: "Walkman is the cheapest, and the tapes can be recorded and played repeatedly, but the sound quality is a bit poor!"
"If you have money, you can try this kind of MP3, it's the latest trend!"
The boss with long hair took out a small MP3 player and said, "Don't underestimate this thing because it's small. It can play 500 songs!"
"What is that?"
Lin Baici pointed to the box-like appliance next to him. It was this thing that was playing music.
"recorder!"
“Can this also record things?”
"Ok!"
"Can you record a sentence for me and set it to play on a loop?"
"Five hundred dollars!"
The boss with shoulder-length hair directly quoted the price.
"can!"
Lin Baici urged: "Record first, I'll see the effect."
The boss with long hair found a discarded cassette and put it into a Walkman: "When I say start, you start talking!"
"Ok!"
Lin Baici nodded.
"start!"
The shoulder-haired boss pressed the record button.
Lin Baici exhaled and said, "Alumni Gu, I'm here!"
Lin Baici shouted ten times in a row.
"That's it!"
The boss with shawl hair pressed the play button, and the Walkman began to automatically play this sentence. After it finished, it started to rewind and continue repeating.
"satisfied?"
Shoulder-haired boss.
"Ok!"
"If you're satisfied, just pay. Why are you just standing there?"
The shoulder-haired boss rolled his eyes.
Lin Baici smiled.
"You are so ridiculous..."
Before the boss with shawl hair could finish his scolding, Lin Baici slashed his neck across the counter with his hand.
The boss with shawl hair rolled his eyes and fainted.
Lin Baici found an electric wire and tied up the boss's hands and feet, then picked up a piece of sackcloth and stuffed it into his mouth, and then shoved him under the counter.
There was no other way. Lin Baici had no money and didn't want to waste time, so he had to resort to this last resort.
After all, they are natives of Shenxu, so it doesn’t matter if we abuse them.
After dealing with the boss, Lin Baici took a tape and re-recorded it according to the boss's previous actions.
Give it a listen, the effect is perfect!
Lin Baici took out the tape from the big tape recorder, replaced it with the newly recorded one, and then played it.
The words "Alumni Gu, I'm here!" were immediately heard on the street.
Lin Baici put the second recorded disc into the small Walkman and then left the music store.
Turn the volume up to maximum.
'Alumni Gu!'
Three words rushed out from the loudspeaker.
Pedestrians on the road all looked at Lin Baici.
Lin Baici suppressed his embarrassment and began to walk through the streets.
More than two hours passed, and Lin Baici walked six streets but found nothing.
During this period, he robbed all the audio-visual stores on the road, recorded the three words "Gu Yuanyuan", and played them on a loop.
Lin Baici walked back, like a hunter who had set a trap to check if there was any prey, and he visited those music and video stores one by one.
When they arrived at the seventh house, Lin Baici just walked in and saw Xia Hongyao wearing a pair of headphones, standing in front of a shelf, listening to music and looking at those CDs.
If I see something I like, I will try it out.
"Red medicine!"
"Xiao Linzi?"
Xia Hongyao immediately took off her headphones and said happily, "You are so smart. I never thought of using this method to find you guys!"
"hehe!"
Lin Baici smiled and said, "Let's go!"
"Ok!"
Xia Hongyao was not panicking to begin with, and now that she saw Lin Baici, she became even calmer.
This time, it’s a sure thing!
Lin Baici returned to the original video store and did not see Gu Qingqiu, but this alumnus had a high IQ, so he did not need to worry about her safety.
"What's next?"
Xia Hongyao glanced at the sky. The sun was setting and it was evening. Everyone had been in the game for nearly five hours, but nothing unusual had occurred.
"Walk around and wait for the mission plot to be triggered!"
Lin Baici had already bought a newspaper and read it, but in this day and age, with information so developed, there were too many headlines on the front page, and Lin Baici couldn't tell which one was related to rule pollution.
Can only wait.
But there is one drawback, that is, the pollution is probably related to places like "restaurants".
After all, the name of this game is "Clay Pot Rice".
Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao were not hungry, but they still randomly went into a restaurant, a hotel, or even a food stall and ordered a bowl of clay pot rice.
The two of them didn't eat either. They just sat and waited for a quarter of an hour. If nothing happened, they would come out and go to the next house.
Ten p.m.
There is still a large flow of people on the busy streets.
For some young people, nightlife has just begun.
"Xiao Linzi, since we can't trigger the mission plot in the restaurant, why don't we go to the vegetable market?"
Xia Hongyao suggested: "Anyway, the two places can be connected!"
"It's already ten o'clock, which vegetable stall is still open?"
Lin Bai was speechless.
"Yes!"
Xia Hongyao scratched her hair, feeling embarrassed.
Lin Baici looked at Xia Hongyao with embarrassment. He didn't want to dampen Gao Ponytail's motivation, so he changed his words: "But your reasoning is great, you can give it a try!"
Xia Hongyao's eyes lit up immediately: "Really?"
"Ok!"
After hearing Lin Baici's confirmation, Xia Hongyao immediately took him to find the vegetable market.
"Wait, let's find a long-established food stall!"
Lin Baici suggested.
"what?"
Xia Hongyao didn't understand: "Aren't we going to the vegetable market?"
"There's definitely not just one vegetable market, right? Find a food stall that's been in business for more than ten years and ask the owner where he buys his vegetables!"
Although the probability of triggering the plot is not high, it is better than running around like a headless fly.
Five minutes later, the two found out.
Niu Shui Street Night Market is the largest vegetable market in this area. Not only are the goods the freshest and most complete, but you can also buy some rare goods.
Many restaurants from other districts come here to purchase their goods.
Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao called a taxi and arrived at Niu Shui Street Night Market twenty minutes later.
Even though it was night, it was quite lively.
Many shops are open, especially those selling seafood.
Because some tourists from other places will buy seafood here and directly ask the restaurant to process it. This is not only cheaper, but also the ingredients are fresher.
Lin Baici and his companion strolled along the street.
Soon, they reached the end of the street and looked at each other.
"Hey, nothing happened!"
Xia Hongyao was depressed.
"continue!"
Lin Baici turned back and walked about a hundred meters, and saw a group of people gathered in front of him.
"Is something wrong?"
Xia Hongyao ran over immediately.
A refrigerated truck carrying seafood hit an old lady in her sixties while reversing.
Someone helped to make a phone call and called an ambulance.
"No, I can go. I still have to go back and cook for my grandson!"
"He's starving!"
"I don't have to go to the hospital!"
Xia Hongyao listened to the old woman's words and poked Lin Baici's arm: "What do you think?"
"Old lady, you love your grandson so much, he must be fat and white because of you!"
Lin Baici shouted.
"That's not the case!"
When the old woman mentioned her grandson, her face was full of wrinkles and filled with happiness.
"What does your grandson like to eat?"
Lin Baici's seemingly casual question was actually a long-planned one.
“My grandchildren love what I cook!”
The old woman boasted.
"Where's the clay pot rice?"
Xia Hongyao couldn't wait and got straight to the point.
“Love to eat!”
The old woman retrieved her vegetable basket.
The onlookers immediately helped and put the scattered vegetables back for her.
The old woman stood up, brushed the dirt off her body, took the 500 yuan compensation from the truck driver, and limped away.
"What do you think?"
Xia Hongyao looked at the old woman's back and asked, "Do you want to follow her for a while?"
"definitely!"
Two people followed behind.
The old woman took many detours, walking through narrow streets and alleys. After half an hour, Lin Baici and Xia Hongyao were lost.
"Will it be another futile effort?"
Xia Hongyao was worried.
"will not!"
Lin Baici's tone was very affirmative.
"what?"
Xia Hongyao was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed: "Did you discover something?"
