Non-Human Seeking Re-employment

Chapter 112 A Secret

Shen Dongqing sized it up a bit: "It's quite a secondary school."

The person hanging on the ceiling got angry, and fell down with all his teeth and claws, shouting: "Let you see how powerful the ghost king is—"

Shen Dongqing took a step back.

The person who claimed to be the ghost king originally wanted to jump directly on Shen Dongqing, but after Shen Dongqing took a step back, he didn't have time to change direction, and fell face-to-face with a slap.

Shen Dongqing: "I see, then what?"

He looked down and found that he was still a kid, probably not even waist high when he stood up.

Is it bad to bully children?

This thought flashed through Shen Dongqing's mind, and then he mercilessly lifted the little boy up.

The mask fell off the little boy's face, revealing a white and fat face, which Shen Dongqing still looked familiar to him.

"You, let me go—" the little brat kept waving his hands, threatening in his mouth, "If you don't let me go, I'll have your fruit!"

Shen Dongqing: "Fruit, what kind of fruit?"

The little kid screamed: "No fruit!"

Shen Dongqing: "Didn't you say so?"

Little Kid: "...Are you an idiot? Ahhh, I'm going to kill you!"

As soon as the words fell, a strong black air erupted from his body, forming a huge grimace behind his back, and rushed towards Shen Dongqing.

A smug smile appeared on the little boy's face: "Hmph, have you seen how powerful the Ghost King is?"

The grimace came menacingly, with its mouth wide open, and a black whirlpool in the mouth. All kinds of hideous and twisted grimaces gathered together on it, making a miserable cry, which was like a magic sound piercing the ears.

The grimace jumped up suddenly, reached the ceiling, and then rushed down, trying to swallow Shen Dongqing into his mouth.

It's just that before the ghost face fell, Shen Dongqing raised his hand and directly smashed the ghost face into pieces, turning into a state of black mist again, floating weakly in the air.

The little boy was dumbfounded: "You, you..."

Shen Dongqing: "What are you?" He pressed the little boy on his lap, and hit his buttocks twice with a very crisp sound.

The little brat raised a decibel: "I'm the king of ghosts——"

Shen Dongqing stopped her hands and thought for a moment: "Then I should hit you twice?"

Then two more slaps down.

The little kid was lying on Shen Dongqing's lap weakly, crying into a ball: "Don't hit me, don't hit me! I admit defeat!" How could he look like he was in the second grade just now?She looked like a little cabbage, and she was crying so pitifully.

It's just that as soon as Shen Dongqing let go of his hand, the little kid immediately stopped crying, ran to the side and put his hands on his hips: "Haha, my ghost king can bend and stretch like this! Be fooled!"

It's just that before the words were finished, the little kid felt someone pat on the shoulder, he twisted his neck stiffly, and saw a person standing behind him.

Zhou Wenyan: "Ghost King?"

Zhou Wenyan was hidden in the darkness, and with his tall stature, he looked even scarier than Shen Dongqing.

The little boy compared the possibility of winning one-on-two, and ran away.

But within two steps, he was suspended in the air, his two little feet dangling constantly, but he couldn't run out.

Shen Dongqing took the little kid from Zhou Wenyan's hand, and gave him another "slap" beating.

The little boy is really crying now: "I was wrong, I was wrong, Dad, don't beat me up."

Shen Dongqing stopped and repeated: "Father?"

He seemed to have thought of something, so he picked up the little boy and observed him face to face.

Taking a closer look, this little kid has a puckered face, black and round eyes, and his facial features are somewhat similar to Shen Dongqing.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Shen Dongqing quickly stated her position and threw the little kid on the ground.

The little brat's identity was exposed, so he stopped pretending, hugged Shen Dongqing's thigh, and said in a crying voice, "At first I thought Dad went out from the game and would never come back, so I didn't recognize him. But you hit me From the familiar strength and place, I immediately recognized you as my father!"

There was too much information in this little kid's sentence, Shen Dongqing quickly stopped: "Wait, you said I got out of the game?"

The little kid blinked his eyes, and started to pretend to be cute: "I don't know, I just knew that Dad left the game, and my son will inherit his father's career, and I will be the next ghost king!"

Shen Dongqing: "...So you're really the ghost king?"

Then in the tower just now, didn't I scold myself?

The little kid was very smart, seeing that Shen Dongqing couldn't remember the past, he immediately started to play dumb: "Ah, I forgot, I don't know!"

Zhou Wenyan stood up: "I'll do it."

The little kid immediately turned his hand, and was held in Zhou Wenyan's hand.He was obviously a little afraid of Zhou Wenyan, shrank his head, and said cautiously: "I don't know anything..."

Zhou Wenyan weighed the weight of the little kid in his hand.

The little boy had a bad premonition, and then he heard the man casually say: "It's useless, let humanity be destroyed."

Little Kid:? ? ?

He could feel that what Zhou Wenyan said was not to fool people, so he quickly said, "You, don't you ask anything?!"

Zhou Wenyan said lazily: "You don't know what you said, I don't want to waste my efforts."

The little boy held back for a long time, and then said: "I can recall it."

Zhou Wenyan: "Then you remember."

The little boy looked around, wanting to ask Shen Dongqing for help, but Shen Dongqing raised his head and hummed to indicate that he didn't hear anything.

He had no choice but to say: "I don't know very well, I just know that Dad disappeared for a while, then brought you back, and then disappeared again, and everything restarted."

The words were in a mess, Zhou Wenyan didn't understand, and narrowed his eyes threateningly.

The little boy quickly raised his hands: "I said, I said, you should know what's in this box!"

Shen Dongqing walked over, walked around the box in the middle of the high platform, pointed to her nose and said, "Is this something I left behind?"

So is it his treasure?Could it be that there was a box of snacks inside.

Little Kid: "Yeah."

Shen Dongqing was not in a hurry to open it, and held back for a long time: "Are you really my son?"

Impossible, he died young, and he no longer has this function after becoming a ghost!

The little kid still wanted to lie: "Of course I am!"

Shen Dongqing stared at it for a long time, and then asked: "You created these eighteen levels of hell?"

The little kid looked excited: "Yes, yes, you think it's great too, don't you?"

Shen Dongqing's eyes were filled with pity: "I'm sure you're not my son anymore."

Little boy: "Gah?"

Shen Dongqing shook her head: "My aesthetics can't be that bad."

The little boy looked like he was about to cry from the shock: "I'm the little ghost you picked up, but, but can't I be the next ghost king?"

Well, this brat called Shen Dongqing's father purely because he wanted to inherit the position of the ghost king.

Shen Dongqing bent her finger and gave him a click: "I'm not dead yet!"

The little kid tilted his head: "Don't you have to die to be the king of ghosts? You're already alive, doesn't it mean that the ghost is 'dead'?"

Shen Dongqing also tilted her head: "That's right, I'm not a ghost anymore." If I'm not a ghost, can I still be the King of Ghosts?

The two fell into doubt at the same time.

Seeing the same expressions and movements of the big and the young, Zhou Wenyan couldn't help but let out a muffled laugh.

Shen Dongqing came to her senses, and stopped worrying about whether she could be the ghost king or not. She turned around and opened the box. He was silent for a few seconds: "But... where is the password?"

There is an exquisite combination lock hanging on this box, which looks quite complicated.

Little Kid: "...I don't know."

Shen Dongqing thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure out what password she had set, so she simply opened the box with her bare hands.

click-

The combination lock was broken off by Shen Dongqing and fell to the ground.

Shen Dongqing raised her hand, and the box slowly opened.

Before opening it, he was wondering if there was really a box full of snacks, and if they were snacks, would they have expired and could not be eaten.

When I opened it, I found that there was only a thin piece of paper inside.

Shen Dongqing picked it up and took a look. The paper was yellowed, and it was filled with traditional Chinese characters written in cinnabar. It seemed that the content was a certain person's date of birth, as well as his name and place of origin.

As soon as he saw the date of birth, he muttered: "Ghost moon born, a person with a yin fate?"

Ghost Moon Yin Fate, the horoscope is too light, it is the fate that lonely ghosts like to seize, usually entangled in Yin Qi, unable to survive.

Before Shen Dongqing drove down, she heard Zhou Wenyan say: "This is my date of birth written on it."

"Oh?" Shen Dongqing looked down, and sure enough, the words "Zhou Wenyan" were written in traditional characters.

Holding the paper, he suddenly realized: "This is my most important thing."

Guiyue's yin life usually cannot survive, but Zhou Wenyan can live until now only because he had a yin relationship with Li Gui under the guidance of the master when he was young.

Of course, that ghost is Shen Dongqing.

So this piece of paper is not just a simple date of birth, but a yin marriage contract, which is witnessed by ghosts and gods, and is more formal than a marriage certificate.

After Shen Dongqing put away the marriage contract, he looked inside the box and found a piece of paper underneath, so he reached out and picked it up.

Compared with the previous formal marriage contract, this one is more casual. It has a whole page written in kindergarten fonts, and the writing is crooked.

Shen Dongqing knew at a glance that this was a font that only he could write.

[If you see this letter, it means that the game has lost control, and you may have lost your memory]

【You have to be careful……】

This letter roughly explained some things.

Ghost City is an S-level dungeon in the game, Shen Dongqing is the boss ghost king, but he is not controlled by the game, but out of a cooperative relationship, he is responsible for housing the lonely ghosts wandering in the world in the game Inside, the game is responsible for introducing some players who are in a vegetative state or dying, and stimulate players with various copies to keep their thinking active.

This is originally a win-win situation, and the game is also positive and optimistic. Not only will the players' lives not be in danger, but it can also give them a new chance.

It's just that he didn't expect the system to lose control, shutting down the entire game directly, destroying the rules he made, and capturing players at will.

Zhou Wenyan was probably brought into the game at that time.

Because he and Shen Dongqing were bound to have yin relatives, they were able to obtain the protection of the ghosts, and there was no danger in the game. Later, when one person and one ghost met, Shen Dongqing found Zhou Wenyan and planned to send him out.

Shen Dongqing and the game are in a peaceful cooperative relationship, so he has the authority to send players away.But at the last moment, the game came out and tricked him. I don't know what happened, but Shen Dongqing successfully left the game, and Zhou Wenyan stayed.

It was too late when Shen Dongqing realized that she had been deceived. In order to protect Zhou Wenyan, before leaving, Shen Dongqing left him the power of the ghost.

According to the game security regulations, the player who leaves the game will clear all his memories, so he doesn't remember what happened in the game.In order to eliminate the traces of Shen Dongqing's existence, the game directly reset all copies except the ghost city, and the players were also reset and started all over again.

However, it was precisely because of the restart that even the game didn't recognize Shen Dongqing at the beginning, and by the time he recognized his identity, it was already too late.

But it might be fate, after Shen Dongqing wandered away from the dungeon for a while, she ignorantly occupied a body that had just died, which happened to meet the loading conditions of the game, and entered the game again.

When two people meet again, even if they are in a state where they don't remember anything, and the marriage contract they formed cannot deceive anyone, they will still involuntarily get close to each other.

Under the circumstances, the two experienced various game dungeons, which happened to stimulate the past memories, and returned to the ghost town again to find the "treasure".

Rather than saying that the treasure is the contents of the box, it is better to say that it is the memory of the past, and it is more... the other party.

Shen Dongqing turned the other side.

It said... Although the game was out of control, during the cooperation, he kept a hand and left a controller in a certain game field, which can temporarily gain control of the game.

After Shen Dongqing finished watching everything, she turned to stare at the little kid.

Little Kid: "..."

Shen Dongqing: "Hand it over."

The little boy reluctantly took out a quaint token with a ghostly symbol drawn on it, and no one could help but write what it meant.

But Shen Dongqing knew that this was the token of the ghost king, which could command all the ghosts.However, the symbolic significance is greater than the practical significance. Shen Dongqing can make all the ghosts obedient by himself, and it is useless if it falls into the hands of others.

Shen Dongqing took the token, and under the distressed eyes of the little kid, she directly broke the token into two pieces, and a shiny silver ornament fell out from the section.

This is a copy token.

Shen Dongqing pinched the silver jewelry in her hand and asked, "Can you control this tower?"

The little kid nodded: "Yes."

Shen Dongqing: "Then cancel all the eighteen levels of hell for me, it's too ugly!"

Little Kid: "...Where is it ugly?"

Because everything was too ugly, Shen Dongqing couldn't say it for a while, and finally he said, "Anyway, it's ugly, and it doesn't fit the status of a ghost king. Then you release all the people inside."

As soon as the little boy heard this, he immediately jumped up, and ordered his zombies to clean up the [-]th floor of hell, and throw out all the things that did not meet the status of ghost king!

The players trapped in the evil mirror hell were "invited" out by the zombies, and stood outside the tower with a dazed expression.

Fortunately, they didn't have to be dazed for too long, and they saw a group of people walking out of the tower.

The crow that was dozing at the door suddenly became excited, fluttered its wings, and shouted at the group of people: "Ghost king, ghost king—"

Ghost King?

The players were shocked and stared at the group of people.

It is said that the ghost king is the final boss in the ghost city, and ordinary players can only be cannon fodder in front of him, and there is no way to resist him.

But didn't it mean that the ghost king disappeared for a long time?

blah blah-

The footsteps gradually approached, and behind the two tall figures was a short-legged boy who waved his hand at the crow: "Excuse me, excuse me!"

After walking in, the players could clearly see the appearance of the little kid. The kid was quite cute, white and chubby, his eyes blinked and were full of little stars.

"Is this the ghost king?" the players whispered.

"It doesn't look like it, it's too small."

"Didn't you say that you don't blink when you kill people? That's not true either."

The little boy heard what the players said, grinned, and said with a smile: "I can kill people with a wink."

As soon as these words came out, the players stopped talking immediately in fright.

The little boy sneered, he really looked good.

But it didn't take long before he was given a shudder by Shen Dongqing. He immediately covered his forehead with tears in his eyes, and called out in aggrieved way: "Dad—"

Wu Jia went up to welcome her and asked, "Have you got a child out so soon?"

Zhou Wenyan didn't object, but raised his eyebrows and looked at the little kid.

The little boy is obviously able to bend and stretch, so he said on the spot: "Big Daddy!"

The other players saw that this little kid really looked a bit like Shen Dongqing. Standing in the middle like this, he really looked like an auspicious family of three.

Shen Dongqing didn't bother to explain, and said to Wu Jia: "You can clear the customs now."

Wu Jia: "Have you found the ghost king's treasure?"

It was difficult for Shen Dongqing to speak clearly, so she could only vaguely bring it along.

Wu Jia understood, and didn't delve too deeply into it: "What about you?"

Shen Dongqing said: "We have to go to another instance."

There is a controller he left behind in that copy of the game, just in case, it's better to go there early.

As soon as Shen Dongqing finished speaking, the little boy hugged his thigh, raised his head and said pitifully, "I'm going too! I can help!"

Shen Dongqing was terribly quarreled, so she could only agree: "Okay, okay."

The little kid hugged Shen Dongqing's thigh and laughed.

Zhou Wenyan couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he picked up the little kid from behind, slipped it aside, and then embraced Shen Dongqing in his arms, expressing that he had better stay away.

Wu Jia was speechless: ...

Why even eat children's vinegar!Boss, did your character design collapse a little too fast?

After going through the [-]th floor of hell, the other players also understood that they could not get the ghost king's treasure with their strength, and they left the ghost city one after another without any other thoughts.

After all the players left, Shen Dongqing and the others also left the dungeon, took the dungeon token, and headed to the next destination.

In the endless darkness, a huge eye hangs in mid-air. The periphery of the eye is a round black circle, and the center is a cold golden vertical pupil.

It is constantly rotating, as if everything is in the eyes.

[warning, warning]

Mechanical female voices continuously came from the void.

[The game is malfunctioning, warning]

The eyeballs spun, and a light curtain appeared in the darkness. In the blink of an eye, tens of thousands of photos flashed across it, making people dazzled.

But fortunately, the eyeballs are not human eyes, it is a sophisticated system, which easily imports this huge data one by one.

The light curtain stopped and fixed on one of the photos.

Above Zhou Wenyan put his hand on Shen Dongqing's shoulder. He lowered his head. The two of them seemed to have just said something. A dimple appeared on Shen Dongqing's cheek, and behind them, a little boy bared his teeth and claws, making a grimace .

[Warning, please remove dangerous people]

[warning, warning]

The calm eyeballs fluctuated, and it seemed to be gnashing its teeth: "If it could be cleared, I would have cleared it long ago, do you still need to tell me?"

The set program obviously didn't understand why the eyeballs were excited, and continued to repeat the alarm sound tirelessly.

Eyeball got impatient and directly muted the program.

The void fell into a dead silence again.

The eyeballs rolled anxiously, and the vertical pupils widened and then narrowed.

Although the game is out of control, there is one principle that it cannot interfere with anyway, and that is fairness, absolute fairness.Once the players enter the instance, no matter what, the game cannot intervene, so it has no way to kill the two players through formal procedures.

However, it has also used informal programs, and there is still no way.

Eyeballs feel a little headache.

All kinds of data streams flashed from the eyeballs, like a bright galaxy. It didn't know how many records it had read, and finally found a way.

"Probably try this—"

【You have entered a new game】

Shen Dongqing opened his eyes and found that he was in a snow-white space.

There are almost no other colors here, everything is white, the walls, bed, ceiling... are all flawless white, and it even feels a little empty after looking at it for a long time.

Shen Dongqing looked down, and found that he had changed into a blue and white hospital gown. He touched his pockets again, and found that he didn't have any belongings except the clothes.

He took a deep breath and smelled the smell of disinfectant.

This is a hospital?

Shen Dongqing looked around, he was the only one in this room, Zhou Wenyan and the little kid were gone.

At this time, a white wall clock hanging on the wall was ticking.

It's nine o'clock at night.

The voice of the game sounded again, it was a gentle female voice, it was like singing a lullaby, very rhythmic.

【You have a secret】

【Never tell anyone else】

【If others know】

【You will be devoured by ants and entangled by poisonous snakes】

[Don't, don't tell anyone——]

At the back, the female voice turned sharply and became high-pitched, almost breaking the voice, each word stabbed in the heart, enough to make people breathless.

[Otherwise, your bones will be cast aside, your flesh and blood will be trampled, and you will die——]

Shen Dongqing sat on the edge of the hospital bed, resting her chin with her hands, and blinked in confusion: "But... I don't even know what the secret is, how can I tell others?"

"Is this contradictory?"

The game is silent.

It kind of wants to ask, why can you easily destroy the atmosphere that you have created with great difficulty every time?

Shen Dongqing who didn't get an answer was still asking: "Get lost later, you haven't told me what the secret is!"
