Chapter 348 The Joy of Ignorance (Update 1)
The successful conclusion of the game exhibition marks that Fangcheng Studio has reached another level.
The topic of the game show has been a hot topic on various platforms for some time. Game-related stocks have experienced sharp rises in the past few days, giving life to the A-shares that have been half-dead.
Fangcheng Studio has also been optimizing MOD recently. This project has become a cash cow for the studio. Even if they exit the game industry in the future, they can rely on MOD dividends to reach the top of the game industry.
Because they were so busy during this period, the employees in the studio were completely burned out. Even work could not interest them. Even the three cats at the door were lazy.
When Xuan Jing finally upgraded and came back, what he saw was this strange scene.
Seeing Huang Ping actually yawning during working hours, he shouted in surprise: "Huang Ping, you actually yawn? Don't you usually say that yawning is a waste of time, so you do it at home?" "
I can't help it, it was too bad some time ago. I'm tired, and I haven't recovered yet." Huang Ping yawned and said, "By the way, who are you?"
"Xuanjing, have you forgotten me?"
Looking at Xuanjing, it took Huang Ping a long time to remember. There was such a person, and he said nervously: "I'm sorry, I work so hard, I forgot that there is a person like you."
"Are you working overtime?" Xuan Jing was even more surprised.
"No, I go to work normally, but I use my brain too much at work, and there seems to be a layer of brain fog in my head now. By the way, where have you been during this time?" "Going out
to further your studies. Oh my god, I learn things so fast there. Yes, I'm just a little tired. But fortunately, I'm smart and smart, and I finally came back from my studies. Let me tell you, I cook very well now. I'll show you my skills next time." "
Yeah, okay."
In the studio After walking around, Xuan Jing found that everyone here was lazy. It seemed that what happened some time ago was indeed quite tiring.
The only one who is not tired is Fang Cheng.
He was sitting at his work station, seemingly thinking about something, but Xuan Jing could tell at a glance that the boss in front of him was not a human being, but a spell left by the boss.
He may not have known this before, but during this trip to "The God of Cookery", he got the inheritance of Xumi Illusion, and his strength was greatly improved. He even survived a thunderstorm and was placed in the "God of Cookery". In the world of spiritual practice, it can also be said to be an immortal weapon.
When he thought that he could reach the level of an immortal weapon so quickly, Xuan Jing felt confident and felt that he was really a genius.
Following the traces left by Fang Cheng, he kept traveling through the mirrors, and soon found Fang Cheng's location.
He was just about to show off his current strength to Fang Cheng, but then he realized that Fang Cheng seemed to be fishing in the void.
Sitting next to Fang Cheng, he asked doubtfully: "Boss, are you fishing?"
Nodding slightly towards Xuan Jing, Fang Cheng said: "Well, I'm going to make a game where ignorance is happiness. Because I feel these players are too smart, so I want them to know that sometimes people are happier if they are ignorant."
The fishing rod in Fang Cheng's hand is an ordinary child's toy, with a market price of ninety-nine yuan and free shipping. There's nothing special about hanging a ball of mana as bait.
Watching the fish floating up and down in the void, Xuan Jing asked curiously: "What does playing games have to do with fishing? In fact, I have always wanted to ask, boss, you often pinch planets when making games. Is it okay to do this?"
"Other people do it. Games are also electronic transportation, so they are not much different from mine."
Xuan Jing thought about it and felt that what his boss said made sense.
If someone feels that what the boss says does not make sense, then he or she should reason with the boss.
After solving one of his doubts, Xuan Jing continued to ask: "Then what are you fishing for?"
"Weird fairy."
"What is that?"
In the Xumi fantasy world of "The God of Cookery", Xuan Jing saw a lot of himself I also learned a lot of interesting inside information about the cultivation world that I didn’t know before. Now I am no longer an ordinary weapon spirit.
However, he thought about it for a long time and couldn't find any records about Wei Xian. He couldn't help but suspect that this concept was made up by Fang Cheng.
Fang Cheng didn't explain, he just fished quietly in the void, silently waiting for the fish to take the bait.
Suddenly, he felt his fishhook twitch slightly, and a faint ripple came from the end of the fishing line, letting him know that what he wanted had been hooked.
When the fishhook was pulled up, Xuan Jing looked at the empty fishhook and asked, "Is it unhooked?"
"No, I caught it, but this is not what I want."
Fang Cheng frowned and looked at his fishhook. He sighed, then threw something that Xuan Jing couldn't see into the void, then sat down and continued fishing.
Xuan Jing looked at the whole process inexplicably. He could only see Fang Cheng repeatedly pulling the hook and throwing back the invisible things.
And no matter how he sensed it, he didn't know what Fang Cheng was catching. It was as if Fang Cheng was just performing a mime performance, which he couldn't understand at all.
Just when he thought something was wrong with his boss, an extremely weak ripple came from the void, and he instantly discovered that there was really something on Fang Cheng's fishhook.
It is something difficult to understand, something that comes from the void but cannot be detected. But it seems to contain a desirable avenue that makes people want to continue exploring.
But the deeper you look into it, the stronger the inexplicable feeling gets, until you are permanently immersed in it and unable to extricate yourself.
Discovering that Fang Cheng had thrown this thing back into the void, Xuan Jing subconsciously wanted to reach out and grab it, but Fang Cheng had already grabbed Xuan Jing and wouldn't let him continue.
Only then did Xuan Jing realize that he seemed to be possessed.
Realizing that he didn't understand when he was in the act, Xuan Jing immediately broke out in a cold sweat. The confidence he had gained during his previous breakthrough was shattered into pieces by this strange scene, and his whole body immediately became quiet.
After calming down, Xuan Jing couldn't help but ask: "Is that the Wei Xian?"
"Yes. Everything can be the Tao, and some fragments of the Dao can also be used. These fragments have no mind, but they just fit some skills. After that You can continue to practice in the unconscious process, and finally become an immortal."
"Can a person without a mind achieve enlightenment?" Xuan Jing shouted in surprise.
Fang Cheng gave Xuan Jing a strange look: "You were born from an object. Are you so surprised that you didn't have a mind to become enlightened? From a probability perspective, the appearance of your weapon spirits is actually rarer."
Xuan Jing was about to say The birth of weapon spirits is not so rare, and then he thought backwards and came up with an answer: "Are you saying that there are actually quite a lot of weird immortals in this world?" "
There are quite a few, but weird immortals are just like sea spiders in the sea. There will be no harm if you put it there, but problems will arise if you study it carefully. Therefore, in order to prevent people from delving into the existence of Wei Xian, this part of the knowledge has been basically sealed, and only Tianzun and a few people know it." "If you study it
deeply, there will be problems . What are the consequences?"
"It's just a little troublesome, not a big problem."
Fang Cheng's calmness made Xuan Jing feel a little reassured, but then he realized a problem.
His boss said it would be a bit troublesome, but the actual situation may be more troublesome than he imagined.
After thinking about it, he immediately wanted to leave here and stay away from Fang Cheng who was fishing for the weird fairy. However, he couldn't help but want to know more about the weird fairy, so he still sat next to Fang Cheng and watched with fear as Fang Cheng continued to fish for the weird fairy.
I don't know how long it took, but Fang Cheng's fishing rod bent sharply, and a big guy was finally caught, which made Fang Cheng, who had always been quiet, smile.
Different from the quiet Wei Xian before, this invisible big guy struggled very hard. The surrounding void rippled due to its struggle, which also made Xuan Jing feel that something was wrong.
Looking at the satisfied Fang Cheng, Xuan Jing asked curiously: "Boss, this thing is struggling very hard." "
Yes, it is afraid."
"Isn't it true that the Fairy has no mind and cannot be afraid?"
" It didn't exist before you met me, but after you met me, it existed."
At this moment, Xuan Jing finally knew that his boss was an even more incredible existence than the Wei Xian.
After obtaining the strange fairy, Fang Cheng took Xuanjing to a planet, and then released the strange fairy he had just captured.
The invisible fairy immediately covered the planet, and under Fang Cheng's indoctrination, the planet became the same as the earth, without any difference.
Pedestrians are walking, white-collar workers in office buildings are working seriously, and employees on the assembly line in factories are working tirelessly. Everything seems to be an ordinary and gentle world.
However, after knowing that this world is actually the product of the strange immortal, Xuan Jing found that everything here seemed not so Putuo.
Pedestrians always have a calm smile on their faces. Even if they are right in front of the edge of the building, they will walk over without hesitation, and the smile on their faces never fades.
The white-collar workers at work did not turn on their computers at all. They just faced blank computers and worked seriously, but their attitudes were extremely pious.
The items on the assembly line are not tools, but human beings. They are assembled like machines, stuffed with internal organs, limbs, and heads, then put into clothes and put into gift boxes, and finally sent to families.
Nothing here seems to be a problem at first glance, but upon closer inspection, everything becomes problematic.
Moreover, these questions have a strange beauty. It is obvious that the logic is broken and reorganized, and finally integrated into something outrageous. However, despite the distortion, there is also a very wonderful atmosphere, which makes people unable to help but want to get to the bottom.
After looking at it for a long time, Xuan Jing felt that he was almost abnormal.
Holding Xuan Jing's head, Fang Cheng said: "The Wei Xian is such a weird existence. What you see is just an illusion made by the Wei Xian based on my feedback. Okay, the basic prototype is finished. It's time to leave it to Huang Ping and the others to perfect."
Looking down blankly, Xuan Jing suddenly said to Fang Cheng, "Boss."
"Huh?"
"I'm sorry."
"Why?"
"I'm too shy."
Looking at it , After Xuan Jing sincerely apologized, Fang Cheng understood what the other party was thinking, nodded with a smile and said, "It's okay."
When Fang Cheng went back and handed his new work to Huang Ping, Huang Ping's performance was still lazy.
He lazily picked up the USB flash drive and lazily installed the game. After playing for a while, his eyes widened and he sat up involuntarily.
According to Fang Cheng’s vision, players will randomly play a role here and then experience their day peacefully.
After trying an ordinary office worker, Huang Ping felt that this game was quite normal and average at first.
There are many games that play a role, and the "Sims" series is one of the best. Basically, everything players can think of can be experienced in that game.
Players who often kill people can also experience the game of killing their neighbors in a fancy way. The operation of pulling out a ladder in the swimming pool is a basic skill that perverts don't even bother to use.
But this game is different.
In the demo, players also have their own values, and they will also be thirsty, hungry, entertained, and make friends. At first glance, it looks like an ordinary simulated business, but there are many details inside that make people think deeply.
Many parts of the game are extremely realistic, and things like squeezing into the subway at work have been done.
But some places are extremely real, and some places are extremely unreasonable, making people feel that there is something wrong in these parts.
Why does writing "1+1=2" on the blackboard draw applause from one's superiors, while writing "2+2=4" makes them extremely angry?
Why is there a door in the toilet that never opens and crying sounds come from inside?
Why does the boss stand at the door and bow to employees one by one when they get off work, but if he wants to bow back, the other employees will become angry?
The accumulation of weird details made Huang Ping feel that this game was abnormal.
"Uncle Liu, what are you playing, are you so involved?"
"Wow!"
Huang Ping screamed like a cat whose tail was stepped on, and jumped up from his workstation.
Next to him, the monkey looked at Huang Ping in shock, not knowing what he saw.
Huang Ping, on the other hand, lifted up his chair, apologized sheepishly, and then continued the game.
The monkey's sound just now made him still feel furry.
Moreover, he soon realized that he was being influenced by the game invisibly.
These details originally didn't matter, but because the effects of the game were so realistic, these ordinary points were magnified infinitely, which made him start to scare himself.
But what made him feel even weirder was that he found that he was actually a little addicted.
The previous fatigue had been dispelled by the feeling brought by the game, making him want to continue to explore the truth behind each detail.
But the more he explored, the more mysteries he found he couldn't solve. He slowly got lost in each of these mysteries, completely unable to get out.
He even picked up a notebook and started recording the mysteries he encountered.
However, when he found that he had recorded dozens of mysteries, but the first one had not yet been solved, he put down his pen and sighed longly:
"It would be better if we didn't go into details."
Huang Ping looked at the entangled one. , Fang Cheng knew that he was on the right track.
Ignorance is a kind of happiness, Huang Ping has begun to realize this.
