I’m Actually a Bigshot

Chapter 57: Once in two hundred years

    What will Ghost Town 665 look like?

    The gray crane was sitting there weakly, but now it just lays directly on the ground, looking up at the sky without any image, it seems that when you look closely, you can still see the past from the smoke-filled top the night sky.

    "If you're lucky, there may be new and new guides." Gray Crane said, paused, "Unfortunately, it may become a land without owners."

    Borderlands…

    Su Qingxing never liked this word.

    When standing in such a ruined ghost town ravaged by fire, no one would think of the greatness and vastness of the underworld. But for the underworld, ghost towns are only a small part of the underworld, insignificant.

    The underworld will never take the life and death of any ghost city to heart. Even if a city has no guides and builders, it is as irrelevant to the underworld as a drop of water in the sea.

    But a ghost town without its builders and guides... will become a no-man's land, lose all restraint and control, and eventually go down the road of self-destruction. Thinking of this, Su Qingxing glanced at the half ghost town that was swallowed up by the fire, and felt that although the guide here was still alive, the city had already reached the brink of destruction.

    The title of the underworld guide sounds very majestic at first, and has many privileges in the trial world.

    For example, the underworld guide can know the life information of each tester, can freely travel to the ghost town and the trial world, and can summon ghost town ghosts during the trial process...

    The most important thing is that the guide of the underworld can open the door of the lava **** and shut the eliminated ghosts into the lava hell!

    However, there is one thing that requires the guides of the underworld to be extra careful, that is, when the ghosts who are being led officially become part of the ghost town, they can no longer easily send the residents of the ghost town to the lava hell.

    Simply put - the ghosts you choose, you must live in peace when you cry!

    In order to prevent the underworld guide from being devoured by the ghosts they choose, in general, the guide will try not to choose the ghosts that they cannot control.

    Over time, the stronger the ability of the underworld guide, the more popular it is in ghost towns. After all, for monsters like Niu Tau Ma Mian who are the most suitable guides, they can make the monsters in the ghost town obedient and obedient just by sneezing.

    For the underworld guides with weak blood, even if they earnestly ask the ghosts to keep themselves safe, the effect that can be obtained is minimal.

    It is for this reason that when other ghost towns know the status quo of No. 666 ghost town, the first conclusion they get is that the new guides of No. 666 ghost town must be very weak, so the selected ghosts are also They are the types that are not hostile and are easily controlled.

    Su Qingxing did not intend to defend this misunderstanding.

    But this Mr. Grey Crane...

    Even Su Qingxing could see that Gray Crane was not strong, even weak, but he didn't know why he chose so many uncontrollable ghosts to enter the ghost town.

    "Where's the builder of the ghost town?" In Su Qingxing's view, although Zhusha likes to stay in his room and never go out, he is one of the indispensable managers in the ghost town.

    "Not all ghost towns are as lucky as No. 666, ahem." The gray crane lying on the ground turned to look at Su Qingxing, "Compared with guides, people who can become architects There are very few people, and there are very few people who can become excellent builders. I believe that most of the ghost towns at the entrance to the underworld lack qualified builders, and there are even no builders like me here."

    Su Qingxing had heard about builders and knew that cinnabar was very special among builders.

    According to Su Qingxing's understanding, most builders will not build scripts for the trial world, but at most create a basic world, similar to desert, wasteland, doomsday, volcano...

    The builder who will create so many different worlds may be the only one.

    "Your ability is no longer enough to manage this place." After hesitating for a while, Su Qingxing still told the truth, "We must quickly find someone to take over here."

      ?"

    Su Qingxing thinks Grey Crane is also very sad, but it doesn't make people feel pitiful either.

    "You are a senior, so as a junior, I shouldn't have said more." Su Qingxing shook his head, "But these things could have been avoided, but as the guide of the underworld, Mr. Gray Crane, you didn't do it."

    "Boy, I'm already dying, why put salt on my wounds?" Gray Crane coughed a few times again, and again coughed up blood, "I used to think that only ghost towns were needed. The strength can become stronger, and the residents of the ghost town can live better. But I didn't expect... When I brought the first Specter into the ghost town, I had already sent the originally peaceful life to the tiger's mouth. "

    "Su Qingxing, your name is Su Qingxing, right?" Gray Crane's voice gained some energy, but at this time it seemed more like a return to light, "The ghost town conference held every two hundred years, must be Be careful! Be careful! Even if you lose for a while, you must not destroy the peace of Ghost Town No. 666! Be careful!"

    Grey Crane suddenly grabbed Su Qingxing's hand and pressed it tightly with all his strength.

    "If you really regret it, I can help you." Su Qingxing said this not because he was soft-hearted, but because he hoped that the neighbors in his ghost town would be as peaceful as possible!

    But Grey Crane still shook his head, the corner of his mouth exposed outside his hair suddenly smiled, and said with inexplicable pride: "Actually I lied to you just now."

    “…”

    "I have found a newcomer who is willing to take over the ghost town No. 665." Grey Crane sounded really happy, "But I can't let the newcomer see such a bad ghost town, so I will go to the end cleaning up."

    Final cleanup?

    After hearing the gray crane say these five words, Su Qingxing's face suddenly changed, and many blue light spots suddenly appeared around Su Qingxing, holding up Su Qingxing's whole body, floating on 665 No. ghost town in mid-air.

    The moment Su Qingxing floated up, the entire No. 665 ghost town street as far as he could see began to crack!

    The ghosts who were still fighting and quarreling at this moment made their final cry for help. But Gray Crane just smiled and watched the door of the lava **** open in the ghost town!

    The topography of each ghost town is very similar.

    A straight street with various buildings on both sides.

    But if you look down at the whole ghost town from above, does it look like a door? The street in the middle is the door, and the buildings on both sides are the left and right doors.

    When the guide opens the lava **** in the ghost town, it is the real gate of **** that can destroy the whole ghost town!

    "Su Qingxing, do me one last favor." Gray Crane just lay on the cracked street, refused Su Qingxing's help, and shouted loudly—

    "If you see a new guide for Ghost Town 665, tell him...it's actually a great ghost town! With his hard work, it will become even better one day! "

    "Also, thank you for accompanying me to the end, Su Ye."

    The moment she heard that name, Su Qingxing's face showed an incredible expression. Because the name that Gray Crane called out at the end...Su Ye...that belonged to Su Qingxing's mother!

    Could it be that the guide to the underworld that Grey Crane had heard in his words before was his mother? !

    After finishing speaking, the gray crane swept towards the gap in the air with its last strength, and then closed its eyes forever.

    Su Qingxing just floated above the open lava hell, watching the corpse of the gray crane sink into the lava, watching the ghosts and buildings of the entire ghost town fall into the lava...

    "Ahhhh!"

    Su Qingxing, who was floating in the air, watched all this silently, and then threw the paper lantern that he had been holding in his hand directly to the lava sea in front of him.

    The paper lanterns were those intruders who were trapped on the third floor of the villa, and now they have returned home in another way.

    I don’t know how long it took, the opened gate of **** closed, and the whole ghost town No. 665 returned to peace.

    But at this moment, there was no life other than Su Qingxing in Ghost Town No. 665, and those buildings that had collapsed also disappeared into the lava along with those ghosts.

    There is only one straight street left, stretching into the distance without end.

    Nothing...

    Su Qingxing did not know what kind of memories Gray Crane had with his mother.

    But Su Qingxing knew that Gray Crane's last choice was to fall into **** with all the ghosts he had chosen.

    Grey Crane helped to repair half of the gap before it died, so Su Qingxing just reached out and flicked the gap in mid-air to completely close the gap, and then disappeared directly from the deserted ghost town No. 665 not see.

    Before Su Qingxing left, he vaguely saw the sky that was completely covered by fire and smoke, and it seemed that it finally showed its original appearance.

    That was the original black.

    In the blink of an eye, Su Qingxing has returned to the ghost town No. 666 where he is responsible. Although it looks empty and silent, and although buildings stand like tombstones in the dark night, when Su Qingxing is completely in the familiar cold air, he has a feeling of... coming home.

    In a street with no people and ghosts, the light of the street lights on the roadside is extremely weak, Su Qingxing just walks on the street like a leisurely stroll.

    The residents of Ghost Town No. 666 seem to be few, but it is actually because most of the residents are distributed in the trial worlds to work. But even so, the number of residents in this ghost town today is much more than what the eyes can see.

    "Lord Guide!" A female voice came from the right side of Su Qingxing.

     

    "It's hard work, Sensen." Su Qingxing called out the name of the female ghost, "There are a lot of newcomers in the ghost town recently, and the reception is more busy, right?"

    "Yeah, but everyone is a good boy, and I didn't encounter any problems when arranging accommodation and work." The female ghost named Sensen has been in charge of the reception of new "people" in the ghost town. Solved many problems for Su Qingxing and Zhu Sha as managers.

    Su Qingxing continued to move forward, and when he reached the gate of a school, he happened to see the ghosts from the second and fourth classes of high school coming out of the school gate, looking at the papers in their hands, their faces pale.

    Although the ghosts were originally pale and pale, Su Qingxing felt that these students seemed to be hit by the exams in the ghost town.

    "Lord Guide!" After seeing Su Qingxing, the students stopped to greet him. Perhaps it was because they had just arrived in the ghost town, and Su Qingxing was once their classmate, so the students were more open-minded than before, and they all waved to Su Qingxing with a very enthusiastic smile.

    "It looks like an impressive test." Su Qingxing pointed to the test paper that promised them.

    Then, all the students showed exaggerated expressions of despair and wailed, "Mr. Chubai's research subject exam is terrible, I'd rather memorize English words!"

    "I'd rather be in my second year of high school for another ten years!"

    "My God, this is too cruel!"

    “…”

    After chatting with the students in the second and fourth classes of senior high school for a while, a rickety bus came from a distance, which was to borrow the students' shuttle bus after school.

    From the driver's seat of the bus, a familiar figure of Su Qingxing also appeared.

    "Yo, long time no see, young master!"

    "Long time no see, Zhang Biao." Su Qingxing smiled and greeted Zhang Biao, who was the driver of the ghost town, and watched the bus full of students stagger away.

    On the way back to the ghost town management office, Su Qingxing greeted all the ghosts he met along the way, although some ghosts in the ghost town were brought in by Su Qingxing's predecessor, but everyone and the new underworld The guides have a very good run-in, and they get along very well.

    At least…

    He will never allow Ghost Town No. 666 to become the next Ghost Town No. 665!

    After Su Qingxing walked into the "Ghost Town Management Office", there was a bigger "surprise" waiting for him.

    "Qingxing!" As soon as the door of the management office was opened, Zhu Sha rushed towards Su Qingxing with messy hair, "It's a big deal!"

    "What's the matter?" Seeing his friend's flustered face, Su Qingxing instantly became nervous, "Is it...the computer crashed, the snacks were finished, the creation bottleneck or did you finally find the hair stuck in your hair? fries in it?"

    "..." Zhu Sha accepted Su Qingxing's alternative concern, then shook his head desperately and said, "No, no! It's Shapi from Ghost Town No. 444 who sent a notice again! How long has it been? It even sent two official notices to the ghost town, is the underworld about to usher in the end of the world?!"

    "What's going on?" Su Qingxing patted Zhu Sha's back with all his might to calm the anxious builder as much as possible.

    "Yes..." Cinnabar swallowed nervously, "Maintenance once every two hundred years!"

    "Maintenance?" Su Qingxing didn't quite understand the meaning of the word.

    "Simply put, the underworld will close the trial space every two hundred years, and use this time to maintain... well, something similar to the general program, and the duration is about It's about thirty minutes." The more Zhu Sha said, the more excited he became, "During this time, the testers cannot enter the trial space, not even the ghosts and guides of the ghost town!"

    "But the last time the entrance to the underworld was closed for three seconds has caused so many troubles, this time..." Su Qingxing wondered if he understood the meaning of cinnabar.

    "It's not the same, it's not the same!" Zhu Sha immediately shook his head, "The closure of the entrance to the underworld will prevent the souls from entering the underworld, and the entrance to the underworld will not be closed during the maintenance period, but the testers cannot enter the test space. ."

    "If the testers don't go to the test, where else can they go?" Su Qingxing immediately asked like a curious baby.

    "..." Zhusha immediately tried to take a deep breath, and finally revealed the answer, "All the dead souls during this period, all enter the ghost town for the first time!"

    Vermilion emphasized the last sentence and went on to explain: "All the souls who died during the maintenance period will be tested directly in the ghost town!"

    A trial in a ghost town? !

    "Qingxing, can you imagine?" Zhu Sha's emotions became more and more excited, "This is definitely the biggest trial map ever! All the ghosts up and down the ghost town will play and participate! The most trial Practitioners! The largest group performance! The largest map! The largest scale! This can be said to be a festival that takes place once every two hundred years in a ghost town!"

    Listening to cinnabar here, Su Qingxing can almost imagine the cheering of those ghost towns of the martial arts and the jungle.

    "You seem to like this maintenance very much." Su Qingxing raised his forehead with some headache, "Then why did you just say something bad?"

    "Because there are only three months left until maintenance!" Zhu Sha looked a little headache, scratching her messy hair desperately, "Even the map, buildings and staff of the ghost town are all Ready-made, as a builder, I still want to complete the most wonderful script! I already have inspiration, as long as all the ideas are realized within three months, I will be able to create a script and a script that will be unforgettable for the testers for a lifetime. Trial!"

    Builders have their own troubles.

    Three months is still a long time for Su Qingxing, but for Cinnabar who wants to prepare the script and arrange the largest trial, the time is very tight.

    "However, Qingxing..." Cinnabar suddenly calmed down and her expression became very serious, "Since the two-hundred-year maintenance is about to start, it means that it is coming soon."

    "That? Every two hundred years?" Su Qingxing thought for a moment, then quickly combined these two things, his expression sank, "You mean the ghost town convention that takes place every two hundred years? The ghost town convention that fights between ghost towns and ghost towns?"

    "The strength of our No. 666 ghost town..." Cinnabar's forehead almost began to sweat, "We must prepare in advance, we can't let the students in the school and those who have nothing to do but keep themselves safe. Ghosts who don't even know how to fight those savage ghosts, right?"

    "You would say that, you should have made a plan." Su Qingxing heard Zhu Sha's voiceover.

    “No. 666 ghost town has a long history. When I first became the architect here, there were actually many ghosts that were difficult to deal with, but because of the lack of guides in the underworld, I managed it very well by myself. difficult.."

    Cinnabar gradually calmed down, and even stretched out her hand to tie her messy red hair into a bundle, and continued: "At that time, in order to keep those specters from making trouble, I could only set up several different tests according to their requirements. Refine the world and let them leave the ghost town and live in those small worlds."

    "So I hope you can go to those worlds in Qingxing to see if there are any ghosts willing to participate in the ghost town convention." Zhu Sha's eyes flickered and seemed a little embarrassed, "Those are all people who like to cause trouble. Guys, maybe you'll be interested in ghost town conventions."

    "In this case, maybe the loss of our ghost town will be minimized."

    "Yes." Su Qingxing nodded without hesitation.

      The identity may not buy it at all, it can be regarded as the no-holds-barred zone of No. 666 ghost town!"

    "It sounds interesting." Su Qingxing smiled with interest, and then comforted, "Don't worry, I know you have been worrying about a lot of things, worrying about these issues. 'Junior', worried about ghost town conventions, worried about maintenance, worried about my safety and everyone's safety."

    "I'm not worried!" Cinnabar just refused to admit it.

    "But don't worry." Su Qingxing smiled, "After all, now you are no longer alone supporting Ghost Town No. 666, we have two!"

    "So, which world should I go to next?"

    "You guy..." Zhu Sha couldn't help laughing, "It's a pity that you're not my type, otherwise I'd be falling in love with you."

    "I'm really sorry!" Su Qingxing gave his friend an angry look.
