Li Qiang shook his head and said, "We entered the game at a friend's home. This is our first time here, so we don't have any tokens."
The old man said, "If that's the case, you can give me the money. One token is 100,000, so pay up."
He Ziyan said: "What kind of crappy game is this, asking for money the moment you entered? "Why is it different from before?"
The old man laughed, "The times are different, so are the values. Nowadays, the maintenance of the game requires a huge amount of money. Since you players aren't paying, how can we continue to operate the game?"
Li Qiang waved his hand and said, "Forget it, I'll just give you the money. How are you guys going to collect the money?" He wanted to turn around and leave, but this strange game piqued his curiosity. Besides, Zhou Qianqian was also inside. He wanted to know what was going on inside.
The old man said, "Tell us your name and identity and we will send you the bill."
The moment Li Qiang mentioned his name, the old man's eyes lit up. He bowed and said, "So it turns out that your esteemed guest has arrived. Please excuse me. Please come in." As he spoke, he stepped aside, and not far away, a magnificent city appeared.
She Ziyan asked: "He is free, what about me?" The elder smiled and said, "Lady is a companion of Mister Li, so naturally she is free."
Li Qiang had been through all sorts of courtesy these past few days and was already used to it. He didn't care much about it as he looked at the city and asked curiously, "Your city is doing quite well. Why is it so simple and crude over at the valley?"
The old man laughed, "I'm sorry, customer. This game has only been built a few days and there are still some areas that need improvement. The map, the characters and so on are still in the process of completion. We are recruiting more IT personnel."
Li Qiang asked curiously, "You just created the game, so what is the relationship with the holographic game from before?"
The old man said, "It is him, and we are us. It doesn't matter."
She Ziyan said: "How can you say it doesn't matter, I think this game of yours is meant to be a plagiarism."
The old man angrily said, "Miss, don't speak nonsense. Our game has its own intellectual property, where did you copy it from?"
She Ziyan snorted, and whispered in Li Qiang's ear: "I know, this game is simply a private server. Although its style is similar to the one before, but in every aspect it's very simple and crude, used to gather money."
Li Qiang responded in a low voice, "The so-called 'exposing someone's weakness'. Since we're already here, we might as well take a walk inside. This time, we're here to look for Teacher Zhou. Don't create unnecessary trouble."
He Ziyan nodded, and said to the old man: "Whatever you say, we are entering the city, see you later."
The elder bowed expressionlessly and said, "I wish the two guests a happy day." Then it disappeared.
As Li Qiang and He Ziyan entered the city gate, they saw that the city was bustling with activity. The construction here was much better than in the valley, and in certain aspects, it was not inferior to the previous game.
He Ziyan said, "Why do the cities here resemble Phoenix City so much? They bring back so many memories."
Li Qiang said, "Since it's a private server, of course there are many places that belong to the shanzhai families. Although the scale is not comparable, the amount of investment required to create a game of this level is not small. It's really strange. Why would Teacher Zhou come to this game?"
He Ziyan said: "Everyone has their own secrets, maybe this is where she sends out her pressure."
Li Qiang said, "If she wants to use this method to relieve the pressure, she can go to the real game."
She Ziyan said, "What do you know? There are a lot of people in the real game, many of whom I know." She Ziyan said, "What do you know, there are a lot of people in the real game, many of whom I know.
Li Qiang nodded and said, "You're right. It must be because Teacher Zhou is always under too much pressure that he came here to relax. It's understandable. I wonder what kind of job she's doing here?"
He Ziyan laughed, "Looking at the size of this city, there are at least a few hundred thousand people. It would be quite difficult for you to find Zhou Qianqian."
Li Qiang smiled and said, "As a person, you have to know the difficulty. As long as you persevere and persevere, you will succeed!"
He Ziyan said, "What you say makes sense, but whether it can succeed is not only a question of perseverance, but also wisdom and luck!"
Li Qiang said, "Yes, that's true. Luck really accounts for a large portion of my fortune today."
He Ziyan said, "Your luck is extremely good. These miraculous encounters are really confusing."
Li Qiang sighed and said, "That's the problem. My luck is surprisingly good, so naturally there are people who are jealous to the extreme. They wholeheartedly want to get rid of me as soon as possible."
She Ziyan said: "This is not surprising. In the business I have, there is no lack of blood brothers. To put it bluntly, one is jealous of the other for being so rich and so hateful that he might as well hire a killer to get rid of him."
The two of them found a restaurant and sat down to order something to eat. Li Qiang drank a cup of wine and sighed, "The benefits are too scary. It can tempt a person to take the risk. Furthermore, it can turn a person into a devil without caring about family and friendship!"
She Ziyan said: "This is also split into different people. Everyone encounters the same thing and has different ways of handling it, I believe that if you encounter a conflict of interests, you will first focus on emotions and not do anything to harm others. That's why I will wholeheartedly be your bodyguard, because I feel that protecting an upright person is more meaningful than killing an evil one!"
Li Qiang smiled embarrassedly, "You think too highly of me. I'm not as good as you say."
She Ziyan said: "I have a good impression of people. You have never let me down, so naturally you are worth my protection."
Li Qiang was moved in his heart, holding He Zi Yan's delicate hand, he said: "You are so good to me, how can I repay you?"
She Ziyan laughed: "As long as you don't give yourself up, I won't be able to afford such benefits."
The two of them started laughing. At this moment, a loud noise came from outside the door, and an open carriage drove in from the main street. On the carriage, two luxuriously dressed people sat inside, a man and a woman; Li Qiang didn't know who the man was, but when he saw the woman's face, he couldn't help but open his mouth in shock.
It turned out the beautiful woman sitting on the luxurious carriage was none other than Zhou Qianqian!
When He Ziyan heard what Li Qiang said, he was also stunned. "Why did she change into such a outfit? Look at her manner and manner. He's like a courtesan. "
This made Li Qiang feel embarrassed. After all, Zhou Qianqian was his teacher, a proper and proper girl. No matter the circumstances, it was hard to understand why she would do such a thing.
She Ziyan looked at the back of the carriage and asked: "What do you think now?"
Li Qiang let out a sigh and said, "What else can you think? Just follow me and see what Teacher Zhou wants to do."
He Zi Yan immediately called for a rickshaw. The rickshaw driver was very agile and even though there were two people on the rickshaw, he was still moving as if he was flying. Unexpectedly, he was not dropped by the wagon.
The horse carriage turned a corner and came to a stop in front of a shop. The man and Zhou Qianqian had their arms around each other's shoulders as they entered the shop.
