Chapter 127 Chinese Valentine's Day
Bai Ming's perception, now as high as 18 points, is extremely sharp, even if someone sneaks up on the house while he is sleeping.
Even without stepping into his door, as long as he enters the house, he will be alert and wake up instantly.
But Bai Xiaozhi is the only exception.
No matter how quietly she went in and out, Bai Ming would not be awakened.
Just like a young animal can get the deepest sleep when it clings to its mother, Bai Xiaozhi's existence itself brings him an indescribable peace of mind.
It is precisely because of this that this scene happened this morning.
Bai Xiaozhi sat on his stomach for a long time before he slowly woke up.
"Bai Ming? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
She seemed completely unaware of anything wrong with her actions, and even slightly bumped her body subconsciously, as if Bai Ming's belly was used as a soft trampoline.
Bai Ming was almost out of breath, and his blood was surging: "Do you think normal people will feel comfortable? This is the weight of a whole living person pressing directly on the stomach!"
Bai Xiaozhi tilted her head, pure confusion written on her face: "But they all said, this You will feel very comfortable."
Bai Ming's face instantly turned red, half positive and half angry: "Who said that? What bastard said that!"
Bai Xiaozhi obediently took out her phone, unlocked the screen, opened a QQ group chat interface, and handed it to him.
Bai Ming's heart tightened. He knew very well what the chat group was like.
Bai Xiaozhi is so simple, how can she survive if she goes in?
He hurriedly took the phone and saw that the group name clearly read "**The Ancestor 2 Signed Kindergarten".
He then remembered that the mobile phone number used by Bai Xiaozhi was his secondary card. He had registered QQ a long time ago and had always used it as his trumpet account. That account had indeed joined this group a long time ago.
Bai Ming frowned and looked through the records, and was suddenly stunned.
The whole screen is full of "boys", "boys", "boys" -
Is this really the group of authors he remembers who occasionally discuss writing, cry every day, and occasionally take off to show off?
How did the style of painting become a scene where a group of big men "mutually interacted"?
After thinking about it, Bai Ming understood that they were probably just joking, and he felt a little relieved.
Since Bai Xiaozhi wants to be exposed to the Internet, it is inevitable that she will encounter all kinds of information.
In comparison, this author group with a female editor as the group leader and fairly strict management is considered a relatively "safe" environment.
"Bai Xiaozhi," he returned the phone to her and said sternly, "you have to make your own judgment. You can't just believe whatever the group friends say, you know?"
Bai Xiaozhi lowered her head and whispered, "I have judgment. I think some of their words are quite reasonable."
As she said, her finger pointed at a message that was swiped up on the screen.
“Hello everyone, I am a magpie. I will get it tomorrow due to the long journey on the road to build a bridge. But now I am dying, crumbling, hungry and cold. Who can give me 50 for a KFC meal on Chinese Valentine’s Day? I don’t know what crazy Thursday is. I just If you want lovers to get married eventually, help me to help the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meet each other this time! "
"I think this makes sense."
She raised her head and stared at Bai Ming unblinkingly with her clear eyes.
Bai Ming was busy and asked: "Do you want to eat KFC?"
Bai Xiaozhi did not answer, but still looked at him quietly and persistently with her big talking eyes.
Bai Ming was instantly defeated and smiled helplessly: "Okay, I understand."
He calculated the time in his mind.
I entered the twilight game on July 1st, and then experienced 7 days + 9 days + 30 days + 7 days + 5 days, a total of 58 days. Today happens to be August 28, the Chinese Valentine's Day.
He originally knew this. After all, there were groups, friends, and the Internet, so it was difficult to ignore it.
He just didn't expect that Bai Xiaozhi would care about this.
However, the next moment, she suddenly said: "Bai Ming, I just want to eat KFC."
Bai Ming: "?"
With his current financial resources, he can choose the most expensive place with the best environment without considering cost-effectiveness at all.
Why not go to a fast food restaurant?
Bai Xiaozhi's voice lowered and she said softly: "Because I haven't eaten it. I saw other children eating it before, and I told the man that he said his family was poor and didn't allow it."
Bai Ming was silent for a moment, stretched out his hand and rubbed her hair: " Okay, I'll take you to KFC."
He stood up and walked to the closet, his tone as usual: "Let's change clothes, let's go out."
Before going out, Bai Xiaozhi was still wearing the same white dress, the skirt was light and elegant, as if there was no trace of dust.
Wearing a pair of exquisite white mid-heeled sandals on her feet, the slender straps went around her ankles, revealing her fair and delicate insteps and slightly curled, round and lovely toes like pearls.
She stood quietly at the door, dressed in plain white, and occasionally looked out through the peephole, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Seeing Bai Ming change into casual clothes and come over, Bai Xiaozhi stretched out her hand very naturally, Bai Ming also took it naturally, and the two held hands and walked out the door.
Bai Ming did not choose to take a taxi, but walked to the bus stop.
Bai Ming himself didn't quite understand why, but when he felt the envious, surprised, or even slightly jealous looks on the bus and on the road.
He suddenly felt that he had made a wise decision, and even began to think that it would not be a bad idea to walk hand in hand with Bai Xiaozhi like this.
Since the two of them are not ordinary people, they can walk dozens of kilometers easily, not to mention that the destination is less than two kilometers away from them.
When he arrived at KFC, Bai Ming ignored the price and pointed at the menu: "Original finger-sucking chicken set meal, whole chicken set meal, tender beef five-way set meal, two portions of them all. By the way, two large portions of French fries, um, and two snack platters. Let’s get a box of egg tarts first, and ask for orange juice as a drink.”
The clerk saw that there were only two of them, and they looked like ordinary young men and women.
But when she saw Bai Xiaozhi's exquisite appearance and pure temperament, she was relieved. She did not ask too much, but dedicatedly and repeatedly confirmed the order content with Bai Ming.
After a while, the meals were served one after another.
Bai Xiaozhi looked at the food that quickly piled up in the two trays in front of her, and felt a little confused: "Bai Ming, I can't finish it."
Bai Ming's tone was relaxed and he had already begun to unpack the food: "It doesn't matter, you just need to taste a little of each, and I can finish the rest."
Bai Xiaozhi curiously picked up a golden French fries and took a bite carefully. The crispy texture and salty taste made her eyes light up slightly.
Bai Ming looked at her cute and cautious look and couldn't help but smile: "The French fries are the best when they are freshly fried, crispy and crispy. Those that have been left out for a long time are soft and waxy, with a starchy taste, and are unpalatable."
Bai Xiaozhi nodded, and her eyes were suddenly attracted to the table next to her.
There was a couple sitting there, and the girl was smiling as she fed a fries dipped in ketchup into the boy's mouth.
She blinked, as if she had learned something. She also picked up a fries, carefully dipped it in some ketchup, and then handed it to Bai Ming's mouth with some unfamiliarity, looking at him with clear and expectant eyes.
Bai Ming was stunned for a moment, looked at the bright red sauce in front of him, and said subconsciously: "Well, actually what I want to tell you is that I don't eat ketchup very much——"
Bai Xiaozhi said "Ah" lightly, and quickly wanted to withdraw the fries.
Unexpectedly, Bai Ming stood up suddenly, put his head in and bit into the French fries.
Since the movement was a bit hasty, his lips even lightly bit Bai Xiaozhi's finger holding the French fries.
As if being touched by a weak electric current, Bai Xiaozhi's fingers trembled slightly and retracted instantly.
Bai Ming sat back in his seat as if nothing had happened, munching the fries slowly: "You gave them to me, don't waste them."
Bai Xiaozhi looked calm on the surface, her fair cheeks did not seem to turn red, and her ears covered by long silky hair could not be seen.
However, with his peripheral vision, Bai Ming keenly captured the movement under the table.
In those delicate white sandals, Bai Xiaozhi's ten toes, which were originally naturally stretched, suddenly tightened. They first curled up with force, and then opened them slightly in confusion. They repeated this several times, like a frightened little shell.
As if aware of Bai Ming's gaze, Bai Xiaozhi suddenly retracted her legs, trying to hide under the chair, but she seemed to have nowhere to hide. In the end, she could only lower her head and mumbled in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Don't look -"
Bai Ming heard this, looked away, and turned to look at her face.
But Bai Xiaozhi felt his gaze, so she lowered her head lower, and her cheeks were finally stained with a thin layer of red.
She pursed her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but in the end no sound came out.
In this way, a subtle and quiet silence fell between the two.
Suddenly, the silence was broken by the quarrel at the next table.
“Damn it! What does KFC mean by offering this Chinese Valentine’s Day set meal for three people? Are you trying to find trouble?”
A man with a twisted face growled into his cell phone, not loudly but enough for the people around him to hear.
The companion beside him patted his shoulder helplessly and comforted: "Okay, okay, calm down, it's just the name of an ordinary family meal, it doesn't mean anything -"
The man almost jumped up: "Ordinary meal? That bitch is She wants me, her, and her male fitness model to eat this three-person set meal together! "
Hime companion was even more helpless and could only continue to comfort: "Oh, you didn't think too much? Don't be angry with yourself first, calm down first, this is a store, we can talk about anything in private."
ifier |
His companion hesitated for a while, and then followed him away.
Bai Xiaozhi was attracted by this scene and ignored her previous shyness.
She gently tugged on Bai Ming's sleeve, her pure eyes filled with confusion: "Bai Ming, what is the 'set meal for three'?" "
Bai Ming retracted his gaze from watching the excitement and explained as simply as possible: "It's a set meal with a larger portion, suitable for three people. Let me take a look, okay."
Speaking, he took out the KFC APP and showed the set meal on it to Bai Xiaozhi: "Look, it's a family set meal with three components, 79 yuan, the price is not bad."
Bai Xiaozhi still stared at him.
Bai Ming sighed, and could only whisper more bluntly: "It just hints or expresses that he plans to live a life with a woman and two men."
Bai Xiaozhi opened her eyes slightly in surprise, and exclaimed in a low voice: "This, how is this possible——
Bai Ming helplessly spread his hands: "So it's outrageous, right?"
Bai Xiaozhi looked at Bai Ming very seriously, with an unprecedented seriousness in his tone: "Bai Ming can't be like this."
Bai Ming immediately said: "I don't have such perverted ideas!"
Bai Xiaozhi emphasized again: "In short, you cannot order the 'set meal for three'. 》
In a dilapidated ancient town, a vague gray mist filled the ruins.
Su Yeye holds the Mingyuan Sword in her hand, and the blade of the sword occasionally passes through a trace of imperceptible purple electricity. She walks vigilantly at the front of the team, carefully sensing any unusual movements around her.
[Funnel Cake] boredly kicked away a piece of gravel at his feet and sighed: "It's so boring. It feels like there's no danger anymore, right? The energy fluctuations have almost subsided."
[Dongyun Research Institute] immediately scolded in a low voice, with a serious voice: "Quiet! The closing stage is often the easiest to relax and cause an accident! Stay alert!"
Su Yeye didn't even look back, and said in a cold voice: "Well, the core pollution source has been removed, and the remaining energy is also dissipating. It's really nothing serious. Just check the surroundings again."
[Funnel Cake] Hearing this, he became even more depressed. Aihao said: "Today is the Chinese Valentine's Day! On such a beautiful day, I am actually doing field work pathetically! Facing these broken stones and tiles!"
[Dongyun Research Institute] replied angrily: "You guy! Festivals happen every year, and if the mission misses the opportunity, the damage caused may be irreparable! Can you be a little more responsible?"
[Funnel Cake] curled her lips and didn't seem to listen too much. Instead, her eyes cleared, and she took two steps closer to Su Yeye curiously: "Don't be so serious, captain! By the way, captain, aren't you going to the Chinese Valentine's Day today?"
Su Yeye paused almost imperceptibly. A certain guy's figure flashed in her mind, but her tone remained calm: "It's Chinese Valentine's Day, and I don't have a boyfriend."
[Funnel Cake] obviously didn't believe it, he chuckled and said: "Isn't it right, Captain? You and Captain Bai have been in pairs all day long, how can you not make any progress?"
Su Yeye retorted: "What do you mean by going in pairs? That's just training together, and besides, I have such a heavy task, how can I get 'all day'?" "
[Funnel Cake] was still determined and asked: "Then Captain, why don't you stay in Dongcheng to guard the headquarters like Captain Bai? That way, maybe you can have some free time——
She didn't mean anything else by what she said. The headquarters is important, and the field service is also very important.
But the tasks Su Yeye now undertakes are obviously beyond others. When the tenth team is taking a break, Su Yeye will go to the first team to help.
It is completely different from Bai Ming, the S+ who guards the Dongcheng headquarters.
She naturally would not be dissatisfied with Bai Ming's long stay at the headquarters. Bai Ming was powerful and the headquarters was very important, so someone always needed to be there.
And those of them who had been saved by Bai Ming were only grateful and convinced to him, and had no objections.
Su Yeye stopped, looked back and glanced at [Funnel Cake], and said in a calm tone: "A ruler is shorter, and an inch is longer.
A sharp sword should be used for sharpening; a thick shield should stand in front of the city. The division of labor is different, and each one performs his own duties. "
Hearing this, [Funnel Cake] sighed again: "Why is there a different division of labor and each one performs his own duties? Captain, your words sound reasonable, but in fact they can only be used in the execution of tasks."
"How can there be no division of labor in emotional matters? If you just pay on one side and enjoy on the other, then the division of labor is different, and everyone should perform their own duties."
Su Ye Ye: "?"
Su Yeye felt that [Funnel Cake] seemed to have misunderstood it, and it was not the same thing as what she wanted to express, but she didn't know how to respond at the moment—
drop! drop! drop! Drop by one!
At this moment, a sharp and rapid siren suddenly erupted from the Xuanyin Spectrometer carried by [Dongyun Research Institute], breaking the dead silence of the ancient town.
"The regular pollution index is abnormal! It has exceeded the threshold of 10! There are high-intensity residues or new ecology is rapidly forming!"
[Dongyun Research Institute] looked at the red numbers jumping on the screen, and his voice suddenly became tense.
Su Yeye’s eyes flashed, and the lightning on Ming Yuan’s sword became clear again.
Her voice was decisive and unquestionable: "Okay, the mission is here, everyone, prepare for battle!"
The members of the Tenth Brigade looked solemn, and immediately responded in unison: "Yes! Captain!"
"Bai Xiaozhi, you are so awesome!"
"Bai Ming, as long as you are satisfied."
"What else can you do?"
"It can be extended by three minutes, but it will consume a lot of money."
“One minute, just use it at the critical moment.”
Well, thank you, Bai Ming. "
After eating KFC with Bai Xiaozhi, Bai Ming took Bai Xiaozhi for a walk and walked to an old park. There were only a few people here.
Hence, Bai Ming came up with an idea.
That is to test Bai Xiaozhi’s natural ability [Equipment Synchronization].
There was no test some time ago because using it consumes Bai Xiaozhi's power.
At that time, he was preparing to hunt down [Void] and was on standby at any time.
Bai Ming was afraid of an accident and didn't want to waste Bai Xiaozhi's strength for testing.
Yesterday, I wanted to test it, but after sparring with Su Yeye, Bai Ming went to study the [Blind Combat] expertise that was only one step away, and then forgot about it.
I just remembered today that Bai Xiaozhi listened to Bai Ming.
As soon as the results were tested, Bai Ming discovered that there was still a difference between Bai Xiaozhi's [Equipment Synchrony] and the normal [Synchrony].
First of all, Bai Xiaozhi's duration is only 1 minute.
Of course, other players’ [Synchronization] equipment is not available 24 hours a day.
In the [Mountain Village] dungeon, Su Yeye was able to finally confront Village Chief Li because the members of the Tenth Team paid the price to help Su Yeye complete [Synchronization] and extend the time of Su Yeye's [Synchronization].
So Bai Xiaozhi's one minute cannot be said to be short.
And it can be used three times a day.
After consuming three opportunities at once, the time will be extended by 3 minutes, which is a total of 6 minutes.
This is an overdraft for Bai Xiaozhi's strength and cannot be recovered the next day.
Secondly, Bai Xiaozhi's [Equipment Synchronization] cannot be synchronized with all equipment.
She can only synchronize equipment that is two levels higher than hers at most.
For example, Bai Xiaozhi is currently at D- level, so she can only synchronize D+ level equipment at most.
There is nothing you can do about C-level equipment.
This does not matter to Bai Ming, since he currently does not have equipment above D+ level.
The [Synchronic] equipment must be magic equipment.
Equipment like [Long Stick Type 1], which has no special effects and only has hardness, cannot be used [Synchrony].
Bai Ming's synchronized equipment includes [Ogre's Power Gloves], [Midnight Library's Search Eyepiece], and [Ghost Shoes].
【Bai Xiaozhi's Workbook】I don't know why it cannot be [synchronized].
Among them, [Ogre's Power Gloves] can be synchronized to increase Bai Ming's damage by 4 points.
【Midnight Library's Search Eyepiece】After synchronization, Bai Ming's will save will be increased by 4 points.
【Ghost Shoes】After synchronization, the reflex save will be increased by 4 points.
So after using the [Midnight Library Search Eyepiece], Bai Ming was able to resist the glare of the little local dog and the resentment from the water ghost.
This is also the greatest value of Bai Xiaozhi's talent [Equipment Synchronization].
Compared to ordinary players [Synchrony], a piece of equipment depends on life and resources, and it also needs to consume one's own willpower.
Bai Ming can use any [Synchronic] equipment and choose the most suitable scene, and the expenditure is paid by Bai Xiaozhi. He consumes nothing and greatly improves his combat effectiveness.
Furthermore, Bai Xiaozhi can help Bai Ming's [Synchrony] without coming out of the [Backpack] in the dungeon, which undoubtedly has great strategic value.
Bai Ming easily guessed that this is definitely closely related to [Symbiosis of Resentful Spirits].
Otherwise it will definitely not be that convenient.
And now that [Symbiosis of Resentful Spirits] has been upgraded to D level, Bai Xiaozhi and Bai Ming "symbiosis", and their strength has improved faster than before. "Bai Xiaozhi, I want you to help me practice!" However, she found that Bai Ming did not use any skills. She tilted her head and asked strangely: "Bai Ming, what's wrong?"
