Chapter 30

Under Cui Jun's reminder, Luo Feng also remembered such a thing.

As early as more than ten years ago, a game called "grab ghosts" was very popular among children in Jiahe City.

其实也就是“捉迷藏”.

这个别称相当奇怪,因为名字叫“抓鬼”,实际上负责找人的孩子在游戏里面才是“鬼”,躲起来的孩子则是被鬼抓的“人”.

In addition, compared with the traditional hide-and-seek game, Jiahe City's local "ghost catching" will have one more local rule.

规则的名字叫作“看不见”.

As the name suggests, when a person is found by a "ghost", as long as you blindfold your eyes with both hands as soon as possible, the child who is a "ghost" will assume that he has not seen the person and looks for the next target.

Of course, while blindfolding, it also means that the child is excluded from the game and is temporarily in a state of invincibility.

Until the whole game is over, if the "ghost" fails to find everyone, it will naturally be the ending of the ghost losing everyone; but if the "ghost" finds everyone and someone uses the "invisible" rule in the middle, then two situations will occur.

In the first case, fewer people are caught by "ghosts" than blindfolded people, so the "ghosts" win, and the children who blindfolded their eyes will also win; in the second case, more people are caught by "ghosts" than blindfolded people, and the "ghosts" and those blindfolded children are all classified as losers.

不得不说,这是一条挺怪异的规则.

However, after careful consideration, Luo Feng discovered some profound meaning that he had not noticed at the beginning.

"The person who created this rule should want to cultivate children's spirit of cooperation and good morals. Even the so-called 'sacrificial spirit' can be cultivated. As long as a group of people discuss in advance and let a person choose to blindfold his eyes during the game, no matter whether he is caught or not, he will win. The person who loses is just the child and the 'ghost' who made the 'sacrificial'."

Sitting on the sofa near the railing on the rooftop, Luo Feng listened to Cui Jun's soft words and couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "It's not that simple."

"That's right!" Cui Jun, who was shaking his goblet in his hand, nodded in agreement, "How is it that simple? Such an idea is too natural... Adults always underestimate the children's desire for victory or defeat. Between 'I must win' and the so-called 'companion', they often choose to take care of themselves first."

"To put it bluntly, this is the competition between 'selfish' and 'selfless' mentality in humans." Luo Feng raised his head and looked at the night sky without stars, narrowing his eyes slightly, "It's a pity that 'people' always lose to 'ghosts'."

"What's the solution? The temptation is too great. As long as you blindfold your eyes, what will happen to others has nothing to do with you. Some people will take the initiative to report their companions' position to the 'ghost' in order to win. Haha, it's really..." Cui Jun said and laughed in an unknown way.

"Thinking about it this way, it's really a 'dark game'."

"Um?"

"Isn't it?" Luo Feng stood up straight and looked at Cui Jun, "selfish, treacherous, suspicious, and cold blood on his eyes for other people's suffering choices. Think about it carefully, this is simply the best portrayal of 'the original nature of human beings'."

"Why are you as serious as you said?" Cui Jun, who just echoed Luo Feng, couldn't help but slapped him in a funny way, "Don't forget, this is just a game for children! What can children understand?"

"It is children who do not have so many adult hypocrisy. In them, the inherent evil of human beings can be seen best." Luo Feng was particularly serious about this topic.

"Just talk about it, you're serious... Okay, let's get back to the point. After listening to what you said just now, I felt that the situation you experienced at that time was very much like playing 'catching ghosts'. Didn't you say that you saw a villain holding hands on the wall of Fenglin Hotel before?"

After hearing Cui Jun say this, Luo Feng was stunned and suddenly remembered some details that he had completely ignored.

In the game "Catching Ghosts", usually at the beginning of the game, children will first draw the corresponding number of villains holding hands on the wall or paper, and draw as many villains as there are people participating. Every time a "ghost" catches one person or a person blindfolds the eyes, a villain will be crossed off. In the end, when everyone is found, the villain should only be left, that is, the "ghost" himself.

As for why the villains must hold hands, Luo Feng didn't understand it very much before. Now thinking about it, it might be because of a mentality of hoping that the children can be united and friendly. Only those who created this game specifically stipulate that villains must hold hands.

Before thinking about the local children's game in Jiahe City, Luo Feng was very confused by the villains holding hands on the walls of the hotel. When he thought about it, he realized that his experience at that time was really similar to the game in "Catching Ghosts".

There are also villains on the wall, and he also needs to find a "target person".

"But if that is really a 'ghost-catching' game, first of all, what does this mean? Is this related to the entire game event? Secondly, why did the task change after I added a villain? Also, the female anchor could see the villain on the wall, how should I explain this?"

"I really don't know if you are lucky or unlucky. If you run to that place, you can still get lucky with love..."

Cui Jun had already heard of Yu Cha on the way to the police station to mention people. He immediately complained about Luo Feng and said seriously: "I don't look like you. I like to use my brain to explore the plot of the game. But I think, maybe you see the villain on the wall that is the opportunity for the game to create the game content?"

Luo Feng asked thoughtfully: "What do you mean... because the madman happened to draw a villain on the wall, the game would randomly create such a game task?"

Cui Jun snapped his fingers crisply, "I don't feel surprised at all about the "Ghost Catching" library of "Horror World". When I was a child, I was unwilling to play hide-and-seek with you because the nursery rhyme that the "Ghost" sang when she caught people was so scary."

Then you sang so happily before?

Luo Feng secretly complained, and then thought about Cui Jun's words seriously, feeling that it really makes sense.

"How should we explain the changes after making up for the villain?"

"Did you forget? ‘Catching ghosts’ requires at least three people to play. If you add a villain, doesn’t it mean that another person joins the game and the game can officially start?"

Luo Feng subconsciously showed a sudden look when he heard this, but immediately afterwards, he discovered another problem.

“可当时在场的人一共就两个,哪来第三个人?”
