Qingcheng is secluded in the world.

Qingcheng, a famous Taoist mountain, has always been the place where immortal cultivators yearn for and longing for, where the immortal family is, and countless people with great magical powers have come out of it.

On the eighth day of the fifth month, it is advisable to apprentice and avoid migration, and there is a rare big movement and loud sound on the quiet and quiet Qingcheng Mountain.

It was the bronze bell Da Lu and the chime bell rang one by one, responding to the collision between the peaks of Qingcheng, and rippling the perennial ethereal clouds and mist.

In every mountain, in the palace of the building, there are Taoists rushing out in a hurry, rushing in the same direction.

Most of them are lightly toeed, and an afterimage is brought out behind them, faster than the galloping horse; A small number of Taoists even jumped up, ignoring the rugged mountain roads and thousands of deep cliffs as nothing, and flew through the air.

The posture is wonderful, the air is riding the wind, like a dragon swimming in nine days, soaring.

If you look up at the sky, you will also find that there are many Taoists who are flying with Edgeworth, and the speed can only leave a black shadow and blue light in your sight, which is fleeting.

On the highest peak of Qingcheng, at this time, nearly a thousand Taoists stood in line, and in the front row was a row of Taoist priests in big red scarlet robes, with solemn expressions.

In the center is a ten-zhang high platform, and there are only two people standing on it, one wearing a purple robe, and the other wearing a golden robe. Every move reveals the majesty of the mountain; Between the eyes closed, there was thunder and lightning flashing, and no one dared to look directly.

Tiandu, Minghe, and Qingcheng are currently the two highest-ranking Taoists, and they are also the heads of the sects.

"At the behest of the Immortal Realm Patriarch, my Qingcheng faction will soon open the mountain gate and recruit disciples."

Tiandu Taoist people bowed their hands to the sky, bowed three times from afar, and read aloud after getting up.

"Obey the Patriarch's Decree."

Thousands of Taoists knelt down and bowed in unison, bowing three times and nine times towards the high platform in the center, and at the same time reciting mantras. The low, suppressed sound of "humming" mantras intertwined, turning into a subtle and intricate sound that spread far away, like a pebble thrown into the calm river.

At the same time, a colorful glow falls from the sky, reflecting the brilliance of the entire mountain.

This scene is not only on Qingcheng Mountain, but also in every corner of the world, and every famous mountain resort is happening at the same time.

Emei, Wudang, Huashan, Kunlun, Zhushan, etc., many sects held a sect conference at this time, and received the will passed down by the ancestor of the upper realm, and all of them began to recruit disciples from outside.

********

Ye Rong leaned back on the electric massage chair, opened his mouth and yawned, and a twenty-nine-inch touch tablet in front of him hung there. Holding a pot of freshly squeezed orange juice in one hand, the empty hand is moving quickly on the tablet, checking the latest news.

Pages and pages of news turned quickly, but they couldn't mention Ye Rong's slightest interest, and they didn't even have the curiosity to read in detail.

"Shushan, Shushan, how could such a classic game close its doors!"

In fact, Ye Rong knew very well in his heart that at the end of last year, the average number of online users of the game Shushan Swordsman had fallen below 300,000, which was completely different from the grand occasion of the highest 8 million people online at the same time in its heyday.

In the face of such an irreversible trend of decline, the closure of Shushan Swordsman can also be guessed, and even the production company was packaged and sold to Shengfeng Network Co., Ltd., the largest game operator in China.

As a loyal player of Shushan Swordsman, Ye Rong has always been a unique lover of Xianxia online games such as Flying Sword, entering and exiting the Nine Heavens, and playing magic weapons, even if the number of participants in the game continues to decline, he did not give up this game, and persevered to the end.

On the last day of the operation of Shushan Swordsman, regardless of good or evil, Buddhism, Taoism, or shemale races, tens of thousands of players gathered on the Emei Ningbi Cliff to witness the end of the last round of sunset in that world. There are many players who choked up and sobbed and cried on the spot, and three years of gaming time left more than just that little memory.

At the end of the set massage time, Ye Rong stood up from the massage chair and walked out of the room wearing flip-flops.

It was a long, narrow passageway, so narrow that if two people were to walk side by side, their arms would collide and rub against each other, and there would be a door on both sides every few steps. At least ten or more rooms were made for such a passage, which were rented to different people.

There were a few doors open, and Ye Rong looked at a messy and dirty scene, a change of clothes was thrown everywhere, and standing at the door, he could smell the smell of smelly socks.

Ye Rong pinched his nose and walked away from the front of these houses as if he was running away, the tenants living in this kind of low-rent housing building are naturally good and bad, and their living standards are limited. If you want to save money, you can't ask for a higher quality of life.

The circular living room is quite large, Ye Rong walked in front of a tall square machine, took out his ID card and swiped it on it, and gave himself a point of beef tendon and large intestine noodles. After waiting for less than five minutes, a bowl of steaming, fragrant noodle soup was pushed out of the port in the middle of the machine.

Such a serving of pasta costs only five yuan, which is enough to fill an adult's stomach, and it is so cheap because all the ingredients are synthetic. Although there is no difference in nutrients, there is a slight difference in taste, and what is worse is that eating this kind of food made by machines with the same taste all year round is a serious challenge for any normal person's appetite.

At the beginning of the 22nd century, the great progress of science and technology has indeed made human life better, but the cost of labor is increasing dramatically. For Ye Rong, going to a restaurant to enjoy a handmade meal is a luxury that may not be available once a month.

Ye Rong, who had added all kinds of condiments and was holding the beef tendon and intestine noodles, threw his ID card back into his pocket, and before pulling it out, he still glanced at the remaining amount number on it, although he could report the numbers on it with his eyes closed, and he didn't even need to calculate.

"I'll go, it's three digits left, I can't pass this day!"

Ye Rong walked to his room with Zhang Lian in pain, and a fair girl walked over to him, young and beautiful.

The passage was narrow, and seeing that Ye Rong was still holding a bowl of noodles in his hand, the young girl hurriedly turned sideways and got out of the way, for fear that the soup would splash on her. Her big eyes quickly swept over Ye Rong, and there was a look of disdain in her eyes.

Ye Rong recognized this girl, the tenant with two rooms on his left, and it had only been more than a month since she moved in.

The whole day of going out is full of makeup, and the dress is very charming, which attracts the single men in this corridor to be moved and run here all day.

Kicking the door shut, Ye Rong happened to hear a "ding dong" new mail prompt, and trotted back to the front of the touch tablet. While eating pasta, I opened my mailbox and browsed the email.

"The other side? New game? ”

As soon as you open it, there are several game animation DVDs, and Ye Rong clicks on one casually, and a group of fairies are flying in the sky, with streamers fluttering and soaring. Each fairy is a jade cheek fragrant, smiling, beautiful eyes, no less than a celebrity model in reality; There are several Taoists standing on top of the green peak, and between raising their hands, there are endless divine thunders falling from the sky, and there are grand sword formations rotating underground, rolling up the sword light and falling a hundred feet high.

"The development company is Shengfeng, isn't this the game company that acquired Shushan Swordsman?"

Ye Rong became interested all of a sudden, and clicked on the introduction of the game content below, and read it in detail.

It turns out that this latest Xianxia online game called the other side is based on the Shushan Swordsman as a template, which has been greatly changed and strengthened, and this year's masterpiece has been launched strongly.

Ye Rong connected to the network and casually searched for game information about the other side, and there was dense information coming to the sky.

It turned out that as early as half a year ago, this game, known as the fully enhanced version of Shushan Swordsman, was already hyped on the Internet, and I don't know how many players are looking forward to it. The internal test numbers three months ago were all fried to 800 oceans, and there were still countless players snapping up them.

Ye Rong had a lot of troubles in real life during that time, and he didn't even pay attention to the promotion on the other side.

"For the sake of Shushan's face, I also want to download it and play around, and earn some living expenses by the way!"

Start the light brain,Start downloading the game package on the other side,And install it,The official running time is two o'clock this afternoon.,It's estimated that the installation will be completed by then.。

Ye Rong quit his job in the last two months, and now he doesn't even have a penny of income, but fortunately, the rent of such a low-rent house is only one hundred and twenty a month, and he can barely support it with his previous savings.

In the process of downloading the game, Ye Rongshun went to the game forum and clicked on a few posts dedicated to introducing the other side. Some of the experience of the closed beta players on the forum is very useful for him as a rookie, so as not to be at a loss and confused after entering the game.

Although the other side is a new production, the background story is the inheritance of Shushan swordsman, and the sects inside are just Emei, Wudang, Qingcheng, Huashan and other Taoist sects, as well as several demon sects, and the opportunity to worship the great god power scattered cultivation with luck.

The race is still divided into two races, humans and demons, and the two races are very different in terms of natural caste, use of spells, and their own growth. Depending on the player's personal preference, different races can be selected to play the game.

Ye Rong flipped through, the more he knew, the more interested he was in the other side, and he read dozens of experience posts of closed beta players in one go, mostly the points that novice rookie players need to pay attention to when getting started and the beginning of leveling.

"Starry sky data? Look at what this broken company has to say. ”

This star information company specializes in doing the work of game data statistics, which is very authoritative.

Ye Rong remembers very well that it was this Star Information Company that reported various data of Shushan Swordsman for several years at the end of last year, so that this classic game in his mind could no longer be supported.
