Chapter 139 Game Paused

Not only Qin Manjiang, but all the players of the strange story game felt palpitations in their hearts at the same time.

Even the sleeping person was awakened by the death-like heart palpitations, and then looked at the phone.

Is the next round of the game going to start so soon?

They each clicked on the Kaitan game, but... the words that appeared in it this time made everyone startled.

[Dear players, the system is about to be upgraded for one month. 】

[No games will be released for the next month, please enjoy the holiday. 】

[Also: Please do not leave the Fucheng area. If you leave without authorization, you will be responsible for the consequences. 】

The three lines of text were completely different from the previous tone. Everyone seemed to see a "person" saying these words to them on the opposite side of the mobile phone screen.

Qin Manjiang read the three lines of text carefully. At this time, the screen went off, and he clicked the icon of the Kaitan Game again but there was no response.

He did not continue to think about the Kaidan game, but put down the phone and took out the relic phone, which was Hitomikai (Fucheng).

The strange thing is that this permanent prop left by his biological father has also failed and is completely unresponsive!

Qin Manjiang was thoughtful, and then... Mi Qiao's voice came from the living room: "Mr. Qin! Do you have breakfast?"

She shouted so casually, obviously convinced that Qin Manjiang was already up. In fact, anyone who has spent some time with him would know that he would wake up on time at 7:30 in the morning.

"Thanks!"

Qin Manjiang was not polite to her. He put both mobile phones in his pocket and opened the door.

In the living room, Nie Yunzhen was also awake and was in a daze. She was always in a daze.

Mi Qiao was busy in the kitchen. When the little yellow dog saw Qin Manjiang come out, he rushed over and bit his ankle. The bite didn't hurt, but it just made a lot of saliva.

Not long after, Mi Qiao came out with two bowls of noodles.

Qin Manjiang hurried over and helped her get a bowl.

There are only two bowls, won’t she eat it?

Qin Manjiang looked back at Nie Yunzhen, who was still in a daze.

But I heard Mi Qiao say: "You guys eat, it's too late, I'm going to work!"

"Miss Nie, you have to eat! You are too thin." While she was in a hurry, she suddenly turned to Nie Yunchen and said.

Nie Yunzhen came back to his senses, looked at Mi Qiao blankly, and nodded.

"I am leaving!"

After tying up the little yellow dog and preparing dog food for it, Mi Qiao picked up her bag and hurriedly ran away from home.

There were two bowls of noodles left on the table, along with two people, a man and a woman.

"We seem like useless people." Qin Manjiang said suddenly while looking at the steaming and fragrant Yangchun noodles.

Nie Yunzhen didn't answer, but silently picked up the chopsticks and started eating bite by bite.

She fainted after calling out the name "Jiang Du" last night. This was the first time Qin Manjiang saw her after she woke up. It seemed... Nie Yunzhen was even more taciturn than before.

Qin Manjiang said no more, took out his mobile phone, and continued to search for information about Professor "Jiang Du" while eating noodles.

At first glance, he gradually lost interest in eating noodles.

Not only is there information about Jiangdu on the Internet, but it is also comprehensive and contains no cover-up.

[Jiang Du, male, 31 years old, folklorist, professor]

[Representative works: "Secret Customs", "Polytheism and Monotheism"]

[Professor of Folklore Gang Du (Wolseong University)]

[Research directions: myths, legends, folk stories, songs, proverbs, folk festivals, beliefs, etiquette, folk architecture, fine arts, and costumes. 】

["Folklore and Culture" and "Traditional Culture" courses are offered at Wolseong University]

【……】

Jiang Du's information is clearly written, and it is clear how he got into university, what achievements he has made, teaching reputation, research results, personal experience...all are posted online.

Only the last sentence reads [Missing for more than four years, deemed dead. 】

Then... Qin Manjiang pulled out Jiang Du's photo.

The moment he saw the photo, Qin Manjiang's heart skipped a beat. This man...except for his temperament being more mature, elegant, and steady, looked exactly like him!

He put down his chopsticks, handed the phone to Nie Yunzhen, and asked, "Is it him?"

Nie Yunzhen raised his head, looked at the photos on the screen, and said nothing for a long time.

"I have no idea."

She lowered her head and said.

Qin Manjiang withdrew his gaze and stopped talking.

Yuecheng, Jiangdu, Professor... I just have a month's "holiday", do you want to go to Yuecheng?

But the warning just now said not to leave the Fucheng area, otherwise you will be responsible for the consequences.

In other words, you will definitely encounter strange things, as long as you can bear it, is that what you mean?

Qin Manjiang thought in his heart and had already made up his mind.

But at this moment, he suddenly remembered that he had made an agreement with his sister Qin Yiyi to go back to his hometown of Xiajiang Village together, and he had also agreed to go with Dr. Xi Wutongxi.

hiss--

Only then did he realize that he actually had so many things to do.

After breakfast, Qin Manjiang returned to the house, preparing to pack up and go to Mianshan Mental Hospital to talk to Qin Yiyi about Xiajiang Village.

But at this moment, his cell phone rang again.

I took a look at the number. Is it Yang?

"Hello."

He pressed the answer button and was a little confused. It was after nine o'clock in the morning. Why was Yang calling so early?

"I have contacted you about a job, will you go?"

Yang came straight to the point and Qin Manjiang was stunned.

"So fast?" Qin Manjiang was a little surprised. When did finding a job become so easy?

"The people selected by the Kaitan game have all kinds of professions. Because we have experienced the relationship of life and death together, it is not difficult for us to find a job through other players." The voice on Yang's side was a bit noisy. He seemed to be in a place with many people. But I still spoke clearly, "But it's better to do something you can do. You can't live just on favors. So, I found a job that I often do when I have no money. I’ll send you the address.”

What kind of work does Yang also often do?

"What do you do?" Qin Manjiang was a little curious.

Yang was silent for a few seconds and then said, "You're considered... a security guard, right?"

What does it mean to be considered a security guard?

Could he still be a doorman called a security guard?

That makes no difference, right?

"Really?"

"To put it simply... there is something wrong with that place, but it is not a big problem for us. It has not turned into a weird story. If you can find the root cause and solve the abnormality, they will pay you a one-time payment of ten Ten thousand."

Qin Manjiang subconsciously sat up straight and said with a serious face: "Actually, I have always been curious about the work of security guards."

Yang didn't say anything for a while. After a while, he said: "I sent you the address. I've already said hello. Just bring your ID and go directly. If you can find the source of the weirdness, you can help solve it. I can't find it. Just use yourself as a tool to ward off evil spirits and help the migrant workers there to suppress evil spirits."

"Do I still have this function?" Qin Manjiang asked.

"We have spiritual pupils in our bodies. Although in the Kaitan game it only serves the purpose of redeeming items, in the real world, the more spiritual pupils a person has, the more things they can see."

Yang told a piece of information that Qin Manjiang had never heard before.

"Spirit pupils have a strong attraction to ghosts in non-Kaitan games, and they also have a strong restraint effect. They are eager to get them, but they dare not approach them. So... when you encounter something weird in the real world, don't be afraid. You There should be almost a hundred spiritual pupils on his body, right?" Yang suddenly asked.

"Yeah." Qin Manjiang nodded.

"That's enough. If you see a fully formed evil ghost, don't think too much. Just run away. When escaping, you can use your mind to consume the spiritual pupils you have. This can delay the ghost's actions. For it, your attraction is Not as good as Lingtong."

"If you see an unformed evil spirit, you don't have to run away. You can think of ways to get rid of it as soon as possible."

Yang Xu talked a lot, the details made Qin Manjiang's scalp numb, and he calmed down for a while until he hung up the phone.

At this time, the address was sent.

[Fucheng Central District, Baihong Building. 】
