章節 18: Plan To Kill
Xia Shishu had wanted to do some night hunting in Second Reality. He bought a torch and wanted to murder chickens, but he was too scared to go out.
He purposely went towards another gate so he can avoid Lady Ying, but he spot the lady behind a tree when he reached the gate! He tried going to other gates, but he will see the lady behind a tree every single time.
It was like he's cursed, and a ghost is attached to him everywhere he went. It was a good thing that Lady Ying could not get close to him inside the village or else he won't play Second Reality at all in the four hours it turns dark.
Since the lady keeps haunting him, he could not freaking go and level by killing monsters! He'll be damned if the lady doesn't kill him for disregarding her when he goes out the gate. In the face of danger, what does a turtle do? He hides in his shell! Why didn't all those player kill the lady too?? Could it be that they can't harm Lady Ying??
Since he needs Lady Ying to be gone, he must somehow destroy her. Lady Ying might also be a ghost… so General Exorcism Fu Talismans would work on her right? Xia Shishu kept thinking and nodding to himself as he walks on the dimly lit streets of Silver Lake Village.
He eventually came to the bustling south side market. He's going to make the Talismans and sell them to players! Others will kill Lady Ying for him, and he will also get money!
Gaining silver or gold to sell in reality is a good idea, but what will he do when others questioned him about how he got the specially designed Second Reality coins? He doesn't want his system to be found out by others. Good things must be kept to oneself!
Xia Shishu found a spot to sit down, and he took his amazing reality items out. He's going to sell Talisman, but he needs to get used to drawing the Talisman first.
Drawing talisman is hard work. You would need to consider every stroke, every touch, and every little detail. If a master teaches you, your abilities might increase at a faster pace. If you're self-taught, it might be slower.
Talisman crating is a long journey. You would need to comprehend the meanings behind the symbols and colors. You will also need to engrave your intentions into the Talisman. The Dao of talisman making is truly something great.
[Ding! Host has created a General Exorcising Fu Talisman.
Soul Binding Fu Talisman (Beginner)
Item Description: Beginner Talisman. A Talisman embedded with magical powers (MP). This Talisman can destroy weak undead. When activated, the player's weapon will deal holy damage rather than normal damage for 5 minutes. Unlimited use on a weapon. Cannot be stacked. One time use consumable.]
It's all lies. All LieS! Xia Shishu didn't work hard at all.. He just drew them, and the system will fix the rest.
If any genuine Talisman Craft master sees Xia Shishu's ability in making Talisman, they will want to tear him apart. They'll probably flick him off. His skills are too poisonous to the Talisman craft community!
Though most Taoist are good people, good people can get jealous about things they don't have too!
"Ohh.. It's this easy! I guess nothing is impossible for this Immortal!" Xia Shishu's ego reached the skies! He did not even fail once for this Talisman. He just needed to make sure there is no mistake in the design! If he upgraded his materials, there is a high chance his Talisman Craft and Calligraphy skills will increase. But that is for another day.
Now, he just needs to try and mass produce the Talismans! If all the Talisman he makes won't kill Lady Ying, he won't know what will!
___
Xia Shishu only made a total of 20 Talisman before his MP ran out. He had failed four times by making silly mistakes in the design.
"Heavens! Who is this person!? He is so awesome!"
"AHHHHHH It's Xiao Wugui!! The person that sells godly items!!"
While he waits for his MP to regenerate, he wants to sell off the one he already made. People will not notice you if you're quiet, so Xia Shishu began shamelessly promoting himself to attract players.
Thanks to Xia Shishu's piercing cries, more and more players gathered around the stall he had set up. He just simply laid down a white cloth he bought and spread out his Talisman.
"Brother! Can we see the item descriptions?"
A player asked and Xia Shishu showed it to them. Players who participated in the previous BOSS battle in the woodlands saw the description and they're amazed. The creepy lady escaped even after their relentless attacks that did no damage!
Many people had already guessed that the creepy lady is probably an undead, but they did not know how they'll be able to kill it. But this brother selling the Talisman had given them a chance to kill the BOSS monster! Everyone knows that undead monsters are weak against Holy Damage!
"How much are these!?"
"I want them all no matter how much you have!"
"How did you get these items!!"
The sound of commotion rolled in waves until everyone around Xia Shishu's stall was shouting. After all, they might be able to become famous if they were the first to kill a BOSS monster in their beginner village.
Everyone was shouting at the same time so Xia Shishu didn't know how to handle the situation. Thanks to his quietness, the players grew even more feverish. They want answers and replies!
"Everyone Shut up! This brother has already promised to sell the Talismans to me for 12 silver coins." A voice sounded out in the midst of chaos.
Xia Shishu stared in shock. As for the rest of the crowd, they stopped speaking and looked at the handsome newcomer.
"I am the leader of Unstoppable Youths! We had already made an arrangement with this master. Right?" The handsome person winked at Xia Shishu, hinting him to play along.
Xia Shishu got irritated. Unstoppable Youths? Leader? Handsome person? Isn't it that giraffe Luo Meng? The World really is small! Why the frick will he let Luo Meng have the BOSS hunting items for 12 silver coins?
"Humph! Do you think this Immortal is that cheap!? For you, it's 10 gold coins! For others, it will be 1 gold coin for all twenty Talisman!" They're online and Luo Meng doesn't know who he is, so it's fine if he acts this way!
"What!? This is nonse-!"
"Shut up! Buy it or not. Who do you think you are? You trying to pull a fast one on everyone?! I don't know you, nor did I have any previous contact with you!"
"Humph! Peasant! Watch out or else us Unstoppable Youths will kill you every time we meet! Whoever dares buy these paper will also be enemies of Unstoppable Youths too!" Luo Meng got mad. How dare a single player treat him this way? He has tens of players waiting for him to give orders! His father makes a lot of money, but he only managed to get two gold in-game money for Unstoppable Youths. The seller asking for 10 gold coins is just too much!
Oh lord. What's with this nutcase? Xia Shishu can't help but question Luo Meng's personality. Luo Meng literally stood by the side staring venomous eyes at everybody.
However, Xia Shishu wasn't willing to give up selling his Talisman. He needed other players to destroy Lady Ying. Thinking about not gaining money cause sweat to bead up on his forehead. He has a system so how can he not earn big money in the early stages of a virtual reality game? It's an insult to all powerful system users.
Suddenly, he slapped his chest and projected his voice to the crowd of players. "Friends, this Immortal is willing to give you all a chance to kill the BOSS monster that recently appeared. This arrogant fellow appeared and disrupted my business out of nowhere. If everybody manages to kick him out of here, I will gladly give you all a discount on my goods. I'll be selling more later. I'm sure this toxic person won't be able to take revenge on a mass of players."
"Good idea! I like it!" someone said. Unstoppable Youths were a little infamous so players were a bit afraid of making enemies out of them for no reason, but they changed their minds after hearing Xia Shishu. They can get a discount and working together with everyone around them is a good idea.
Interested players began to shun Luo Meng. He stared at disbelief at the players around him. Shouldn't they be afraid of being hunted down in the later stages of the game? He stayed still, wanting to show that he is unyielding to the mass of people.
Aiya, but is what Luo Meng did really the correct thing? In the end, three people rushed up and stabbed Luo Meg to death before sneakily running to hide in the dark alleys.
That night in Second Reality, dark clouds filled the sky and the players gathered around Xia Shishu's stall the whole time. Xia Shishu sat next to his stall area with his eyes wide open as he made money.
"The night is so peaceful… Safely making money in the village is truly a great thing…."
