Chapter 4 Want money or life?
"You will pay attention to my eye tip later!"
"OK!"
Li Xuanji looked at him without squinting and continued to whisper: "Anyone I have reminded me, you must cooperate with me to check their student ID."
The security guard walked around and walked to the other side of Li Xuanji and whispered in confusion: "What are you doing when you check their student ID? Many students don't usually carry their student IDs."
"What are you doing so much!"
Li Xuanji rebuked impatiently, and then said with a slight tone: "Checking student ID is just an excuse. Just stop it a little. My real purpose is to observe their appearance from the side! I doubt... Forget it, do I need to explain it to you? You just do it!"
"oh!"
The security guard nodded as if he understood something, and he didn't think that Li Xuanji was wrong when he was scolded and swear. He was doing a high-risk job, with a high psychological pressure and a bad temper, it's normal for us to understand long live!
So next, the security guard stopped one or two passing students from time to time and asked to check their student IDs, while Li Xuanji took the opportunity to observe on the side. The task completion efficiency was much higher than before sending leaflets.
However, this also aroused the dissatisfaction of some students and attracted the attention of another security guard.
The students were fine, but they just had the harsh and unreasonable appearance of the Triangle Eye Security Guard. When they saw it, it would be better to have less than more things. Moreover, they just asked about it, and they were not allowed to enter and leave without a student ID.
But another security guard who was familiar with him was not so easy to fool around.
After wondering for a while, another security guard couldn't help but step forward and asked, "Old Wang, what are you doing? Why did you suddenly check the student ID?"
Upon hearing this, the Triangle Eye Security Guard subconsciously glanced at Li Xuanji. After seeing the other party nodding slightly at him as if he was free and confident, a feeling of trust and appreciation arises naturally, and his confidence is even more secure.
"The leader above ordered it."
The security guard Lao Wang couldn't help but straighten his chest, and didn't think he had exaggerated the facts. After all, he was a security guard. If he guessed correctly, he was a regular army and there was nothing wrong with saying that he was the leader above.
The other party said, "Ah? Leader above? Why didn't I receive the notice?"
Lao Wang impatiently gave the other party a triangular eye. He didn't want to talk nonsense, but in the end he couldn't help but whisper: "Secret mission... Alas, Xiao Zhang, I'm not convenient to tell you more. In short, you can't walk away quickly and just pretend that nothing happened."
The security guard Xiao Zhang, who felt very inexplicable, couldn't help scratching his neck, looked at Lao Wang, then turned his head and squinted his eyes to look at the "mysterious person" behind him.
In fact, he had noticed Li Xuanji a long time ago. At first, he saw this man standing at the door looking around, as if he was looking for someone. Then somehow he launched a flyer and was driven away by Lao Wang, but now he is back, and the "leader above" that Lao Wang mentioned seems to refer to this person?
At this moment, Li Xuanji was also observing Xiao Zhang opposite him and gave his own judgment: "The eyes are small, and the eyes are hidden but not exposed. Most of them are clever and sharp, have many minds, quick reactions, and have strong adaptability. It is not easy to fool..."
While thinking about this, Li Xuanji withdrew his gaze expressionlessly and decided to respond to changes in the same way.
Generally speaking, smart and smart people are indeed not easy to be fooled. If Li Xuanji uses the means to deal with security guard Lao Wang to deal with security guard Xiao Zhang, he may be seen through and then be called a drama genius or a lunatic.
Therefore, when dealing with such people, as long as you do not express your opinion, speak, do not move, and do not provide any reference and guess information from the other party, and always maintain a sense of mystery. No matter how smart the other party is, there is no place to do anything, so naturally you will not act rashly.
And as the saying goes, being smart is just mistaken for cleverness.
As a colleague, the smart Xiao Zhang must have a very good understanding of Lao Wang's personality and knows that Lao Wang is a person with a small mind and a strong sense of suspicion, so it is difficult for him to convince someone.
Now that even people like Lao Wang believe it, what reason does Xiao Zhang have to believe it?
Sure enough, after Xiao Zhang took a few more glances, he didn't ask much when he couldn't figure out Li Xuanji's background. He could only temporarily believe Lao Wang's statement and turned around and left suspiciously.
In this way, there is nothing to stop Li Xuanji from making a task progress.
However, as he brushed, Li Xuanji discovered a problem: the task progress growth rate is getting slower and slower.
At first, I only observed the eyes of myself and my parents at home, and the task progress reached more than 20%. Then I observed more than 30 people in the mahjong room, with an average increase of only 1% per person. Later, I sent leaflets, and the per capita growth rate was only 0.5%.
Now, it is almost slowly increasing at a rate of 0.1% each time. With this calculation, it takes more than a hundred people to complete the task, but at least a thousand people!
"Birds of a feather flock together, and the group of college students also has certain limitations..."
After thinking for a while, Li Xuanji quickly realized what the problem might be.
The groups in the mahjong room are basically retired middle-aged and elderly people, and most of the school gates are young people who have not entered society. In terms of age, there are less practical observations of office workers like young and middle-aged people.
If this type of office workers usually find someone to do tasks on the street, they will not be inefficient, but they may even be beaten.
I looked at the task progress: 89.4%.
Li Xuanji's personality tends to be perfectionist, so when he saw this progress, he decided to try to get 90% first before thinking about a solution.
Although the remaining 0.6% seems not to be much, in fact, now it is often necessary to swap seven or eight people to increase by 0.1%. Later, the progress of swaping more than a dozen people sometimes does not change, and it is only when it is close to supper time that it is almost 90%.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'm going to change shifts here, so let's go first."
Li Xuanji decided to go home for dinner first, and before leaving, he patted the security guard Lao Wang on the shoulder to encourage him.
"Not hard or hard!"
Lao Wang, who was still full of energy, was a little reluctant and asked, "Have you found someone?"
Li Xuanji shook his head and sighed: "It seems that he will probably have to squat here for a few more days..."
Lao Wang sighed and then said, "If there is anything else I can help you, just give me the order!"
"Yeah! OK!"
Li Xuanji gave the other party an admiring look, then stopped talking nonsense, waved his hand, and with the other party's attention, he crossed the road openly and walked into the community across the road.
"It's true that I'm going to change shifts!"
Seeing this scene, Lao Wang's last doubts about Li Xuanji also dissipated. He couldn't help but look up at the opposite residential building for a long time, trying to find the hidden observation point.
The final result was of course in vain, but Lao Wang admired Li Xuanji even more because of this - it was indeed professional, so he couldn't find it!
Li Xuanji, who had already entered his community, did not expect that his imagination would become bigger and bigger, but even if he expected it, he would not be able to sympathize with the other party.
His attention is on the system at this moment.
System of All Realms: Because the completion of the main task of the wisdom eye to recognize the bead has reached 90%, the next main task has been activated and opened.
System of all realms: The nose is the pillar of the human face, and it is the middle mountain among the five mountains. Looking at the nose, you can identify the person. Task requirements: observe the nose shape of others and make correct judgments; task completion degree: 0%; completion reward: scented nose, life span 50 days.
Li Xuanji: "System, I thought of another old song, Three Plum Blossoms: Without a bone-breaking cold, how can I get the fragrance of plum blossoms..."
Systems of all realms:...The system is crashing, please wait.
Li Xuanji: "If I received the task now, would I faint like last time?"
All-world systems: No.
Li Xuanji: "Receive the mission!"
The next moment, countless thoughts and memorial formulas poured into my mind:
The ridge of the nose to the middle of the eyes is the root of the mountain; the lower end of the nose is the nose; the midpoint between the nose and the root of the mountain is the year-life; the left and right wings of the nose are Lantai, and the right is the Tingwei...
The nose is like a hanging gallbladder, and the body is precious, and the earth is the earth and the earth comes to the earth;
The villain is poor and humble, and Kong Yang's family has no money to stay;
I am afraid that the seedlings will be like an eagle's beak, and my plan will be unbearable...
The hanging gallbladder nose is like an upside-down gallbladder; the squid rhinoceros nose is like a squid rhinoceros straight into the heaven; the crucian carp nose is like a high-life life as the back of a crucian carp; the squid nose is a mountain root, with a small and flat year life; the eagle nose is...
...
This time, Li Xuanji did not lie down, but his whole body was fixed in place like a wooden pile. Fortunately, there were no pedestrians or vehicles in the community, otherwise he would not know what would happen.
"Li Xuanji! Why are you standing there in a daze! Why don't you go home quickly!"
This time Li Xuanji was woken up by his mother again.
Yu Guifen had just gotten off work from the mahjong room, and on the way home, he happened to see his son standing motionlessly on the side of the road like a fool, his head tilted to the sky at a 45° angle. He was immediately furious and shouted with his hips on his face.
"The system must have done it on purpose..."
Li Xuanji rubbed his sore neck and made up his mind not to receive tasks in public in the future.
After coming to his senses, Li Xuanji quickly took a step under his mother's gaze and walked towards the entrance of the building.
When I passed by my mother who was examining her, I still couldn't escape the other party's criticism: "What do you think you are idle all day long? What did you do in the afternoon? Don't you write a book?"
Li Xuanji stood firm and opened his mouth to say something, but after looking at the other person with a complicated expression, he finally shook his head and sighed, leaving on his own.
"The eagle nose has a high nose bridge with a ridge, a pointed head with a small hook, a blue platform, a short and narrowed, and most of them are mean..."
Although Li Xuanji didn't want to admit it, his mother's nose was indeed in the shape of an eagle nose.
It is said that "a child with a mother is like a treasure", but this is not applicable to Li Xuanji. He has been living under the shadow of his mother since he was a child, and he cannot fully understand what kind of emotional existence the legendary "great maternal love" is.
For example, when he went to a movie, there was a maternal love story, and the audience could be moved to cry, but Li Xuanji was indifferent and even felt that the plot was bloody and inexplicable because he had no sense of immersion at all.
Many family conflicts in his previous life were directly or indirectly related to his mother, which in turn affected a series of life tragedies.
Of course objectively speaking, this is just a kind of spiritual oppression. In terms of material life, Yu Guifen still fulfilled his basic obligations and responsibilities as a mother, and there is nothing to blame on the moral level of the family.
It is precisely because of this that even though Li Xuanji feels disgusted with his mother's character, he still maintains basic respect on the surface, but he doesn't want to try to communicate because he knows that his nature is difficult to change.
When I got home, my mother's complaints came from time to time in my ears. Li Xuanji, who was sitting in front of the computer, sighed quietly, and could not enter the state of writing for a long time.
Even if there is a system, work needs to be done, and the novel still needs to be updated, otherwise there will be no income. If you can't pay the food and electricity bills at home, you can imagine how terrifying it would be to see your mother get angry.
As the saying goes, people are poor and have a short ambition. Li Xuanji suddenly had a whim and asked: "System, when will the function of the prop mall be opened? Can the life span value be exchanged for money in the prop mall?"
System: The prop mall is still in progress, but the host can exchange life value for real currency at any time, with a exchange ratio of 1:100.
Li Xuanji was slightly stunned and said with a complicated mood: "In other words, 100 yuan can be exchanged for my life in one day? That year's life can only be exchanged for about 36,000 yuan? That is, the income level of an ordinary working class? Is my life so worthless? It's true that it's a life of a loser..."
In fact, in a sense, who is not like this for the general public? They are exhausted to live for life at the expense of physical health every day, and are not just exchanging their lives for money. It is simply that the system has given itself a cheap way to cash out quickly.
After a moment of silence, Li Xuanji asked again: "If I make a lot of money in the future, can I exchange it for it?"
System: No, this behavior is irreversible. Again, the life span is the only exchange currency in this system.
"All right……"
Li Xuanji originally wanted to try to exchange his life span for some money and find system loopholes, but now he immediately gave up this idea.
In his previous life, he was indeed impatient in his life. If he had given this opportunity at that time, he would definitely make the decision to ask for money but not life, and then give all the money he had earned with his life to his family.
But in this life, the system gave him a glimmer of hope, so he still wanted to struggle again.
"Maybe... can you open a novel with a metaphysical theme?"
After posting for a long time, Li Xuanji was inspired and felt that since he had such a charlatan system, why can't he write these personal experiences into a novel?
At least in terms of plot conception, there is no need to worry about it.
Chapter completed!
