Chapter 17 Poker Game
When he opened his eyes again, Li Ang found himself sitting cross-legged on the floor of a farm hall, holding a handful of playing cards in his hand, and three villagers dressed in plain clothes sat in front of him.
At the same time, information about tasks flows through my mind.
According to the system instructions, the script task will place the player in an independent time and space, and the player needs to play a certain role to complete the tasks published by the system.
During this process, players can wear equipment, use items, and release extraordinary power. Most bizarre behaviors will not cause "confusion" among the indigenous people. Of course, if you do it too much, it will still cause trouble.
In this mission, Li Ang played a young villager in Yinshan Village named Feng Tiechui.
Yinshan Village is located deep in the mountains, remote, poor, backward, closed and ignorant, and has always been the label of this small mountain village.
The outside world is developing rapidly and technology is changing with each passing day. The closed Yinshan Village still maintains the silence of the ancient well without waves. Until the road leading to the outside of the mountain is paved, the information torrent of the outside world finally collapses and brings a trace of vitality to Yinshan Village.
But in the memories of some middle-aged and elderly villagers, their fear of famine and hunger are still vivid and within reach.
The mission briefing ended, and Li Ang slowly looked at the rural hall in front of him.
The interior space of the building is quite large, the triangular roof is made of logs, two stories high, and the floor is covered with potholes of concrete floor tiles.
Combined with the cracked gray walls and handmade wooden chairs stacked on both sides of the Great Hall, spray painted and dropped,
It can be inferred that this great hall has at least forty or fifty years of history.
During the rural people's commune period, this hall was used to hold meetings for the production brigade and carry out commune construction.
When rural communes no longer adapt to the times, the utilization rate of the conference hall also plummeted. Now it is either used to run for the village party secretary, or to sing opera for the opera troupe, or... it is used to slaughter the corpse like now...
The innermost left side of the Great Hall says it is about advocating learning and being kind, the right side says it is about being pragmatic and trustworthy, and in the middle is a platform with a high height for one person, with a black and gray wooden coffin on it.
It was night at this time, and the gate of the Great Hall was open, and you could see the stars in the night sky.
The cool night wind blew from outside the gate, stirring the incandescent lamp hanging from the dome of the Great Hall. The light and shadow rotated, illuminating the gray coffin on the platform.
Four villagers, including Li Ang, sat in a cross shape on the floor near the door of the Great Hall, with several old newspapers under their butts, and a pile of playing cards were piled on the newspaper in the center of the four.
"Two 10"
"Two J's"
"Two K's"
The card game was played in a dull atmosphere, and the four people played cards not for entertainment, but for the unbearable night with the lonely coffin.
Villager A, who was sitting opposite Li Ang, said casually: "Feng Tiegen is lying here, I asked us to watch the night, but I took my wife to the county town."
Villager B said: "Don't say that, he also went to the county town to apply for the "Resident Death Funeral Certificate"."
"He's just doing nothing!" Villager A sneered: "He killed his mother himself, does he still have the face?"
Villager B and villager C both changed their faces. They glanced at the coffin deep in the Great Hall and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense!"
"What nonsense? Am I wrong?" Villager A said indifferently: "When he was a child, his mother could be said to have brought him up with shit and urine. The whole village was about to chew the bark and didn't starve him."
"As a result, he got better. Since he married that wife, the small villa in his family has been built, but he refused to pay for his mother to treat her."
"Isn't it just cancer? If you can't afford it, you won't be cured. It's okay to take it home and take care of it. Feng Tiegen and his wife thought it was troublesome to take care of the seriously ill woman, so they locked her in the cowshed in the backyard! They also locked the cowshed!"
"How can human hearts be so poisonous? His mother was trapped in a cowshed and had no one to care about it. She had no food or drink. How did she die in the end? She starved to death!"
"When she dragged it out of the cowshed, she still had a large ball of cotton and a bag of indigested instant noodles seasoning bag in her mouth! She lost her teeth and was extremely hungry and wanted to eat seasoning bags, but she couldn't even tear the plastic bags outside!"
Speaking of this, the villagers A was so angry that they were trembling all over, while villagers B and C also had their faces low and silent.
Feng Tiegen's behavior will certainly be nailed to the pillar of shame and will always be pointed by the villagers of Yinshan Village, but for scumbags, face has always been dispensable.
Li Ang, with his back facing the coffin, felt thoughtful. According to the task description, the zombie to be eliminated is probably the old lady in the coffin who was starved to death by her biological son.
However, the task also states that "zombies" need to be eliminated instead of "corpses", which means that you have to wait until the corpse Su Sheng can meet the task conditions - if you do it too early, the corpse may trigger zombies or other bad consequences in advance.
In the eyes of villagers ABC, Li Ang, who plays an ordinary villager, wears simple clothes, but in fact he is fully armed and can carry out individual combat at any time.
The debate just now made the already depressed hall even more silent. The four people appointed by the village to watch the night game round after round.
Suddenly, the slightest "click" sound rang in the conference hall, blending with the sound of the night wind blowing the leaves outside the building.
Villager A, who was sitting opposite Li Ang, was holding two pokers and about to hit them, but his face suddenly changed. The poker held in the air trembled slightly, and his eyes were filled with panic.
In his sight, the coffin lid of the coffin inside the Great Hall was slowly opening, and a thin arm covered with pale and long hair slowly stretched out from under the wooden board and pinched the coffin lid.
The coffin board made of wood is quite thick, but it looks as light as a feather in the white-haired arms.
The white-haired arms slowly, stiff, smooth and light, put the coffin lid on the ground beside it, and there was no sound in the whole process, and it was terrifyingly quiet.
The cold current flowed through the back of villager A in an instant, and he made an unknown "hoho" sound from his throat, looking ahead, his eyes shattered.
The old lady's body, which had long been black, slowly stood up in the coffin like broken chopsticks.
Her body was covered with white hair, her shriveled and empty eyes, staring at the four people playing cards in front of her in a daze.
Villager A, as if he was electrocuted, threw down the poker in panic and said, "I... I'll go outside to use the toilet. Are you here?"
"What are you doing outside? It's so cold. Find a bucket to solve it." Villager B said in confusion. The four of them sat down in a cross shape. From his position, they could not see the changes in the dead body.
"I'm afraid of the dark! Come with me!" Villager A roared in a low voice.
Villager C curled his lips, "If you don't go, you have to go by yourself."
