Chapter 39 Straight Talk
After dinner, I was about to get up to clean up the dishes when Afeng suddenly said, "Oh, by the way, Ah Dai, I almost forgot to tell you, are you still in the 'Dead Space'?"
Seeing me nodding, Afeng continued, "Xue Wuxia couldn't contact you, so let me tell you that when you are resurrected, we will gather in Nanjing Restaurant and discuss something."
"What's the matter? Have you received some tricky task again?" I asked while cleaning up.
"You will know when you go. I can't explain clearly after a few words. I'm going to rest, don't bother me anymore." Afeng turned around and walked away, leaving me with a suspense. With intuition, I felt that things would not be too simple, and maybe it was another big trouble. However, if you don't look at the monk's face, you have to look at the Buddha's face. For those who may become the future wife, you can't offend someone who may become the future wife. This woman was already powerful enough, but now it involves Afeng's lifelong happiness, and you have to go forward!
When they were resurrected, they greeted Xue Wuxia and started to rush to Nanjing. They had calculated the time and waited for me in the Nanjing restaurant in advance. This also shows that this meeting is more important, which made me feel a little uneasy.
When we arrived at the Nanjing restaurant, all ten people were present, and a lot of them were there. Even Xiao Chili, who was busy with his studies, attended the meeting and greeting each other, and soon got to the point.
"Ah Dai, you should have known the official announcement, right?" Xue Wuxia pointed out the topic I didn't want to talk about the most.
"You are talking about the 'Heroes of the World'. So many people are talking about it, how can I not know?" The facts are there, and I cannot give a negative answer.
"We have discussed it and decided to participate in a team competition, and strive to win a good ranking and get the winner's reward. I don't know what you have to say." What a good Xue Wuxia, he was aggressive from the beginning and used his collective will to suppress me.
The original premonition became reality. I felt particularly conflicted in my heart. I almost didn't dare to face Xue Wuxia's eyes. I subconsciously turned my face, "Since you have already discussed it, I naturally support you firmly. Don't worry, I will definitely come to the scene to cheer for you. I believe that led by Sister Xue, who is both wise and powerful, with both beauty and wisdom, will definitely win invincible battles and achieve excellent results." I decided to do my best to defend my right to freedom.
Xue Wuxia smiled faintly, unmoved, and moved forward step by step, "If we need you to participate and help us win, will you agree?"
"This...", I dared not refuse, but I was unwilling to agree. I looked at others as if I asked for help. Afeng, who knew my mood best, didn't look at me. He was so excited about the chatter with Yun Wuying. Little Lajiao was looking at me earnestly, but according to her personality and expression on her face, she was definitely encouraging me to agree. The two people who are close to me are still like this, let alone the rest of the people, the hope of finding foreign aid was completely shattered. Thinking about it, they must have discussed and formed a united front to deal with me. Afeng has betrayed me. Can I stand it alone?
"Actually, I really want to fight with you, but my identity is a necromancer. Once exposed to the sun, no one would expect any consequences. In the future, facing the Light Church, it is likely to implicate you. I don't want to bring regrets to the future for a temporary pleasure." There is no way to avoid it, and I reluctantly revealed my heart. Afeng's goal is "playboy", which is the accumulated resentment. Even if he really falls in love with Xue Wuxia, this decision will not change. If he is hostile to the Light Church for my reasons, it will cause great trouble to his revenge. This is not my original intention, nor is it what I want to see.
"What is your purpose of playing the game?" Surprisingly, Xue Wuxia did not continue the topic just now and tried her best to convince me, but instead asked such a philosophical question.
I was a little confused. According to my inference, Xue Wuxia is not so easy to give up. She will definitely find a way to make me agree to her. But what is the point of asking this question? I was about to answer, but I opened my mouth, but suddenly I stopped again. I had an answer, but I didn't know how to speak.
The most basic purpose is to make a living as a means of making a living, trying to make money from the game to support the family as Afeng described, but I don’t have confidence in it. With my shallow level, can it really be done? With Afeng as a lesson, I don’t think it can be stronger than Afeng. I always have doubts about this new lifestyle. I feel a little guilty as I use this as the answer to the question, and I am afraid I will be ridiculed.
Another main purpose is to assist Afeng in revenge on the "playboy", but this involves personal privacy. He can only work in private and is inconvenient to say it clearly to Xue Wuxia. Putting aside these two factors, he couldn't find a suitable answer for a while, and suddenly sweated on his forehead and fell into an embarrassing situation.
Xue Wuxia spoke at the right time to help me, "Different people have different purposes for games. Some people are interested in them, some people use this as a career for making a living, and some people are because of grudges, love and hatred... All these constitute a huge group of gamers." When talking about grudges, love and hatred, I saw her seemingly staring at A Feng, and there seemed to be a different meaning in her eyes. Did she know something? This is impossible. A Feng will never tell others about her past. Not to mention that Xue Wuxia has just met for a while. Maybe it was a temporary illusion, and I could only explain to myself like this.
Xue Wuxia did not have anything unusual and continued to speak, "Everyone has his own dream in his heart. The reality is too cruel. It shatters the hopes of many people, leaving endless regrets. No matter what purpose we want to come to this virtual world, it is actually to be able to start over and show a more exciting life. The poor want to become rich, the rich want to become more developed, the weak want to become stronger, and the strong want to climb higher mountains, because we are unwilling to be willing to be what we have or get. We are powerless to resist reality and can only choose to challenge all this in illusion, at least, we will not lose to pieces, and we will have more opportunities for success."
These words may be a bit cruel, but I refuted silently. She spoke to my heart and revealed my true intentions. Yes, whether it is making a living or revenge, it is all about meeting the hopes that we cannot do in reality. The relationships in reality are too complicated, and many things involve all aspects of problems. It is too difficult for some people to do something. Virtual real games have become a good choice - although we are dissatisfied with reality, we are not mentally ill and will not do things that violate the law.
Xue Wuxia's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if there was a layer of crystal clearness. In a trance, I had an illusion, as if she was not persuading me, but expressing her beliefs and revealing her thoughts, "Since that's the case, why should we be so timid? What should we come will always come. As long as we work hard, success or failure, what's the regret? What is important is a spirit, a spirit of unyielding, unwillingness, and unwillingness. Without it, what's the point of living? How can we say?"
The whispers around me have stopped, and everyone is savoring Xue Wuxia's words, and I have been speechless for a while. As the person involved, I seem to have been woken up by a wake-up call. My heart has been awakened for a long time. The unsatisfactory life has completely wiped out my once full of courage, becoming increasingly lacking in self-confidence, doubting everything, and fearing everything. I have no clear understanding of many problems. I breathed a sigh of relief and felt the gradually boiling blood. My heart was filled with passion. Instead of living like this, it would be better to do it vigorously, be a hero in life, and be a ghost hero in death. The once passionate bold words cannot be achieved in reality. If I can show my ambitions in virtual games, it would be a disguised compensation.
