Chapter 442: "Love"
Xu Qingsong's hands, even if the fingers are covered with mud, do not prevent them from looking good. As Liu Wangxue watched, he took out his mobile phone and started recording the video. It was a benefit to control the party by hand. It would be a pity to miss it.
He sat with his legs spread close to the drawing machine, his elbows on the inside of his knees for support. The ring with a sycamore branch on his left hand had been taken off before making pottery. The piece of white pottery The mud rotated rapidly under his palm, and was gradually smoothed into a regular shape. He has cold white skin and strong, slender fingers, but his fingertips are so gentle. He can tame the clay and make it into any shape he wants.
After Liu Wangxue took the close-up, he went to take a panoramic shot. Looking at his serious expression, he thought to himself, if this video is posted on the platform, I don’t know how many screams it will cause.
“I really want to be the piece of clay in his hand~”
"Ah, ah, pinch me, pinch me~"
"No, rub me~"
Liu Wangxue thought, there must be such unrestrained barrage, thinking about it, he laughed out loud made a sound.
Xu Qingsong left the half-formed pottery with his hands, raised his eyes and looked at her with a smile, and asked: "Why are you laughing? Do you think my work is not good-looking?"
Liu Wangxuedian When the recording was over, he put away his phone and shook his head: "It looks good, it looks really good."
She said and sat back on the small bench, then moved the stool to Xu Qingsong, hugged his arm and pressed against him: "Why are you so powerful? You can do everything!"
Xu Qingsong Qingsong looked sideways at her: "Do you still want to play? I'll take you to do it."
Liu Wangxue shook his head: "No, I've already washed my hands. And I will definitely be doing you a disservice if you do it. Let me watch."
Xu Qingsong raised his hand and tapped the tip of her nose, leaving a piece of white clay. Liu Wangxue immediately turned around and rubbed all the mud on his sleeve. Then he looked up at him, and the two smiled at each other.
"Okay, then you watch." Xu Qingsong said.
Liu Wangxue let go of his arm and sat next to him, supporting her chin with both hands, watching him finish the rest.
After finishing, Xu Qingsong carved some simple patterns on the pottery under the guidance of the teacher. Liu Wangxue also tried it. This was relatively simple. She drew a simple sketch on it. From the shape, you can see the different shapes of Pengpeng, Xiaoci and Peigui.
Wenxi and Du Yunkai's glaze painting has also been completed. Wenxi chose a small house that can be used as a decoration, and Du Yunkai chose a small parrot, intending to give it to Chacha as a gift.
Tao Huayu made a plate and a bowl, and Li Yu made two water cups, both of which are basic shapes. After asking the teacher, I learned that it had to be dried, trimmed, and bisque-fired before glazing. By that time, they had already left here. So I picked out the pattern with the girl in the store, and asked the instructor in the store to help with the painting.
Liu Wangxue and Xu Qingsong’s four “tall, short, fat and thin” vases do not need to be painted. When they chose the clay, they focused on the color of the clay itself. For Wenxi and Du Yunkai, the glaze after painting still had to be baked again, and it was not available for the time being, so they both filled in the delivery address.
The experience here is over. Two hours have passed. Everyone is hungry, so they quickly go to the finished product sales area next door to see what they like and buy it for dinner.
The styles of the finished products are really rich, including various cute little ornaments of flowers, birds, fish and insects, complete sets of exquisite tableware and tea sets, and even some accessories and two-dimensional character figures.
Liu Wangxue quickly chose a tea set and tableware for herself, but she had trouble choosing a gift. She asked Xu Qingsong: "What do you think is better to give to the twins and your aunt? ”
Xu Qingsong pointed to a figure in the two-dimensional figure area wearing a Confucian scarf and navy blue robe. The image of a slender man said: "This? An anime character that is quite popular recently. I saw that the twins had posted photos of their cosplay of this character in their circle of friends."
"What anime is it?" Liu Wang Xue asked, "Are the twins still playing Cosplay?"
Xu Qingsong took out his mobile phone to search and showed it to her: "Yes, he started playing in junior high school. He seems to be quite famous in their circle."
Liu Wangxue was amazed by the pictures on his mobile phone. , said in a low voice: "Oh, this model is really addictive at first glance. I will take a look when I have time. It's true, I have another two-dimensional husband."
Xu Qingsong raised his hand, opened his mouth and pinched her face: "Don't talk nonsense."
Liu Wangxue immediately understood what he was referring to and blinked. , smiled, but the occasion was inappropriate, so she did not refute: "Okay then~"
Xu Qingsong let go of his hand and scratched her dimples with his curved fingers.
Liu Wangxue bent over and looked at the figure for a while. It was really well done, very delicate, and the figure's expression was lifelike. She asked Xu Qingsong: "Are you two buying the same one?"
"Same. "Yes." Xu Qingsong laughed, "One year, I gave them two birthday gifts because they were of different colors. I was arguing for the whole afternoon because they wanted the same one. In the end, I had no choice but to go again. I bought one and stopped when I saw it was exactly the same."
Liu Wangxue also laughed and asked, "The twins must not have been very old at that time, right?"
Xu Qingsong. Answer: "Nine years old, I guess."
"Then they are older now, so they probably won't be." Liu Wangxue said, but she still bought two identical ones.
Then he chose a vase in the shape of a Peking Opera Tsing Yi for Xu Qingsong’s aunt. Xu Qingsong said that his aunt was a cartoonist and was recently drawing a story related to Peking Opera.
Xu Qingsong picked two succulent flowerpots, one with a little monkey peeling bananas, and the other with a little cow eating grass.
Liu Wangxue asked him: "Want to grow flowers?"
Xu Qingsong suddenly leaned into her ear and whispered: "Now I just want to grow your flower, and the others I didn’t even look at it.”
The words of love came so suddenly, Liu Wangxue’s heartbeat accelerated for a moment, her cheeks turned red, and she glanced at him: “I don’t need you to support me, I’m already very nourished. .”
"You will need it." Xu Qingsong's eyes were a little aggressive, but also wrapped in an inexplicable ambiguity. He moved his eyes away and continued, "This is for your mother. I brought two pots of meat here. When moving, the flowerpot knocked out She always wanted to exchange it, saying that she didn't find anyone she liked."
Liu Wangxue held his arm and said in a tone of emotion: "No wonder my parents like you, look at you. I don’t even know how careful I am. I know the flowerpot at home is cracked."
Xu Qingsong went to check out with her and asked her jokingly: "Do you need to think about it?"
Liu Wangxue nodded. : "Well, I really need to reflect on it."
Wenxi and the four of them also picked some small things. After paying the bill, everyone unanimously decided to have lunch on this street. They randomly found a restaurant that looked like I went into a store that was okay.
After ordering the meal, Xu Qingsong's cell phone rang. He picked it up and saw that the number seemed to be the consultation number he had called when booking tickets for the drama. After picking up the call, sure enough, the other party introduced himself, confirmed the information with Xu Qingsong, and then explained the purpose of the call: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Xu, there is something wrong with the script venue you booked. A guest accidentally destroyed a key prop. Our prop master is currently working hard to repair it, but it is estimated that it will not be repaired within today. Do you think you and your friends should choose to postpone the time or use another book? If it doesn't work, we can also provide a full refund."
After hearing this, Xu Qingsong said: "Please wait a moment, let me ask them."
"Okay."
Xu Qingsong put down his phone, told everyone about the situation, and asked, "What do you think?"
Several people said that they should change their books. Anyway, they all ordered it and they were definitely going to play.
Liu Wangxue asked: "What other books are available for the time period we have booked?"
Xu Qingsong turned on his mobile phone and placed it in the middle of the table for everyone's convenience. You can hear the answer from customer service.
They originally ordered a script with a future science fiction theme, but now due to a temporary change, they can only choose two scripts. One is a modern setting, with family and emotions containing slight horror elements, and the story is about solving crimes and finding the murderer; the other is a deep mansion with an ancient setting, and is more focused on escape rooms.
After listening to the customer service introduction, everyone unanimously chose the former. The main reason was influenced by the horror story he made up in the morning. Tao Huayu said: "It just so happened that I haven't had enough fun in the morning. Now I am immersed in it. Feel the feelings.”
Others thought so too.
After lunch, everyone carried their things back to the hotel, rested and took a nap. After getting up, they took the sightseeing bus to the Script Killing Building.
The script killing building is next to the shopping mall. It is a separate building with four floors. When it was first built, it was also used as a shop and an indoor market, but the results were not very good and it was later closed. In recent years, with the rise of script killing, a wealthy boss has rented out the entire building and turned it into a script killing venue.
Their scenes are well arranged and the script is solid. As soon as the advertisement was published, it immediately attracted many young people to come and play. Since then, it has continued to introduce new products, and its reputation has always been high. Many tourists come here just for this game.
The lobby on the first floor is the reception area. There are already many players sitting and waiting, chatting, eating snacks, and going to the small room next to them one by one. Some looked dejected when they came out. , some dancing.
Liu Wangxue and the others found an empty seat and sat down. The walls around them were covered with posters of various scripts. Their script was called "Words of Love", and Liu Wangxue found it at a glance. They also saw this when they were selecting scripts the day before yesterday, and it was pretty popular.
The poster of "Love" is very simple, with a dark red background, a long-haired girl being strangled by a big hand with bulging veins, her wide eyes filled with fear and despair.
Wenxi said: "It seems that the word 'love' is very interesting."
Li Yu opened the official page of Script Killing again, found the homepage of the game, and gave the plot summary Read it again: "This is a synopsis of the plot, a little information None, I only know that the heroine is called Feifei, and she has parents and husband who love her."
Tao Huayu was also reading: "Look at what it says, 'Suddenly one day, Feifei discovered her husband's secret. , everything has changed...'"
Du Yunkai was also looking at the poster: "Blind guessing, husband's hobbies, abuse."
Wenxi and others agreed: "It makes sense."
Liu Wangxue thoughtfully: "I think You can think a little darker, that hand may not completely represent her husband's hand..."
Xu Qingsong went to the front desk to write off the order and came back. He heard them discussing and sat next to Liu Wangxue. On the armrest of the sofa, he put his hand on her shoulder, and then she said: "If you think about it in a dark way, maybe the heroine's parents were also involved in the events in the plot?"
Li Yu rubbed his arm: " Hey, brother Qingsong, please stop talking, my hair is standing on end now.”
"Okay, okay," Tao Huayu waved his hand, "We don't even know what the plot is, so stop guessing and scare yourself."
After waiting for a while, a staff member came to call. They went to the small room next door in order to draw character cards.
Xu Qingsong went in first. After drawing the cards, he received a piece of paper. He read the outline of the character's identity on it while listening to the staff explain the main plot.
Li Yu was the last one. He drank the rest of the milk tea cup in two big gulps, threw it into the trash can, and walked in quickly.
After the drawing, the little brother in charge of drawing cards came out with him: "Guys, we are not allowed to bring mobile phones or any shooting equipment in here. Please put such personal belongings at the front desk. In the locker next to it.”
They didn't have many things with them, just Liu Wangxue and Wenxi's small bags, and a backpack from Li Yu. They opened a cabinet door and put everything in. Xu Qingsong kept the key.
Then, the little brother led everyone to the elevator: "Your script room is on the top floor. Please follow me. I will take you up first."
Everyone followed the little brother into the elevator. , he continued: "When I just drew the character cards, I already told you about the main plot. In addition to the main plot, each of you has a branch plot. You need to explore this part by yourself."
< br>After that, the little brother handed out the "electronic watch" he was holding to everyone according to their character names: "This is the first mission of the game, exploring the side plot. There is a green button on the watch, and everyone can press it. Seeing a progress bar, this progress bar represents the character's plot completeness."
Everyone clicked it and it showed "Plot completeness 0%".
"It's all 0% now." The little brother continued.
The elevator arrived at this time, and the little brother led everyone through the corridor and zigzagged to a glass door. We have already introduced the other functions of the "electronic watch" on the way. Press and hold the white button to use intercom, but the communication in this way can be heard by the entire team. The red button means asking for help. Because it involves horror elements, some players may not be able to bear it. Pressing this button will mean quitting. Or if the player accidentally bumps and gets injured, he or she can also press this button to ask for help, and a staff member will come to respond.
The little brother opened the glass door with his employee card and took everyone in: "I just said that the first task is for everyone to explore their own side plots. There are also two tasks. The second one is The third step is to find the murderer and reunite the male and female protagonists. Now our store has launched a New Year’s Day gift package event. As long as players can successfully complete all the tasks released by the game, they can unlock this gift package.”
Finally, everyone stopped in front of a dimly lit passage. The little brother pointed to the passage and said to everyone: "Okay, I can only send you here. In front of everyone is a parallel time and space passage. Turn on the switch of the passage. Now you can enter the story world. Have a good time."
"Okay, thank you."
"You're welcome."
After the little brother left, everyone was quiet for a moment.
Tao Huayu asked: "He said to turn on the switch, where is the switch?"
Except for the glass door on the left, they are surrounded by cement walls and can't see a single thing. The shadow of the switch.
Li Yu laughed at him: "It must be in the passage."
