Chapter 9: Mobile Phone Ringtones
Stepping out of the black hole, An Yi returned home once again.
Dusk is approaching, and the sky has gradually darkened. The light in the living room reveals a sense of nightfall.
Looking at the glass window on one side, An Yi's face changed continuously, and he raised his hand to pull down the curtains.
It's not that An Yi was careless, but rather he had been holding an attitude of indifference from the start. But now...
Any wishes? Any wishes!
Looking back at the ancestral altar in the corner of the living room, An Yi's gaze lingered on the black and white photos in the frame.
Death did not intimidate An Yi. But that so-called wish undoubtedly became the driving force for An Yi to keep moving forward.
Rubbing his brow, An Yi sat back down on the sofa.
Tired! Not just physically tired, but also mentally exhausted!
His thumb and index finger intertwined, An Yi pinched his brow hard, hoping to relieve the fatigue that was difficult to shake off.
Her cheeks slightly raised, leaning against the back of the sofa, An Yi quietly looked at the peony picture hanging on the wall behind her.
A three-meter-long and two-meter-wide peony picture, exquisitely mounted on the wall.
The view in the living room was dim, but you could barely see that the peony picture was filled with needle holes.
Yes. The whole peony picture is not painted with pen and ink, but sewn with one needle and one thread.
Reclining on the sofa, An Yi quietly gazed at the peony picture on the wall, as if flipping through memories of her mother sewing it stitch by stitch.
。
The weather wasn't cold, at least the living room temperature was far from being as low as I had imagined. But An Yi unconsciously took off his shoes, hugged a pillow, and slowly curled up in one corner of the sofa.
Curled up, lying sideways on the sofa, An Yi quietly stared at the peony picture in a daze. It seemed... it seemed that only like this could An Yi's emotions gradually calm down.
Fatigue was driving An Yi's eyelids down bit by bit.
An Yi's return startled another member of the family. The white Samoyed wagged its tail and ran to the living room.
Perhaps it is not clear what An Yi has gone through. But...
It seemed to have sensed An Yi's fatigue, the milky white Samoyed let out two soft whimpers before quietly slipping over to An Yi's side and lying down.
The dog's two erect ears would twitch from time to time, its tail wagging slowly, the frequency getting slower and slower...
The dimly lit living room, everything returned to calm once again.

A pleasant ringtone dragged An Yi back from his dream to reality.
The moment he opened his eyes, An Yi took out the mobile phone from his pocket and pressed it against his ear.
The ringtone didn't stop and still echoed in An Yi's ears.
Leng Leng brought her phone in front of her eyes and took a look, An Yi smiled self-deprecatingly.
This... is just a "face" with a phone attached, but without any mobile phone function.
He casually threw his mobile phone on the sofa and An Yi followed the ringtone to the windowsill, lifting up the curtains.
On the windowsill, a common model of mobile phone was placed, and with the ringing sound, the phone was still slightly vibrating.
An Yi had just picked up the phone when the ringing suddenly stopped.
He glanced at the number on the screen and frowned.
。
An unfamiliar number, plus the ringing time was not long, An Yi gave up the idea of answering it.
The dog rubbed against An Yi's side and started biting his pant leg.
An Yi put his phone back in its original place and walked into the kitchen to get a WoWoTou for the dog.
Watching the dog wolf down its food like it hadn't eaten in days, An Yi shook his head with a smile.
The mobile phone ringtone suddenly rang again, An Yi frowned and walked back to the living room to pick up the phone.
"Hello. That lost and found notice, was it posted by you?" The voice on the phone had a girl's characteristic lightness and a hint of shyness.
"Ah? Oh. It's me." An Yi paused for a moment before responding.
"That, that although I don't have many years of experience raising medium-sized dogs, but, but I really like dogs. I, I will definitely treat it well. Can you give me a chance?" The girl's voice was filled with hesitation and a hint of nervousness.
"Haha." An Yi was amused by the girl's words and burst out laughing.
Want to adopt a dog, but most people would be silly enough to admit they have no experience?
He had only heard her voice and hadn't seen her face, but Cao An Yi somehow felt a little bit of affection for this girl.
Honesty often has some common ground with kindness!
"Alright. But... that 'give me a chance' of yours, isn't it used a bit inappropriately? I always feel..." An Yi smiled and teased.
"That's great!" The girl's cheer came over the phone, followed by another question from the girl: "Not quite right? How is it?"
An Yi's cheeks involuntarily hung with a thick and sweet smile.
What a silly and slow-witted girl!
"'Give me a chance", isn't that what guys usually say when confessing their love? And most of the time, it's the boys who say it...
Nothing much
The other party did not hear the tone of teasing, and An Yi didn't intentionally break it either.
"Hey, hey, can you tell me where your home is? I tried calling you the day before yesterday, but you didn't answer. I, I want to go see the dog...". The girl spoke in a subtle tone, but it was clear that she was impatiently trying to take the dog away.
An Yi said his address and then hung up the phone with a smile.
Just as he was about to put his phone back in its original place, An Yi suddenly stiffened.
Wait!
The day before yesterday? The girl said she had called herself the day before yesterday?
In the dog's notice of finding its owner, An Yi left his phone number. However, the release time of the dog's notice was...
An Yi's face changed color repeatedly, and he suddenly picked up his phone to take a look at the time.
He glanced at the time on his phone and then looked at the dog's appearance, which seemed to have not eaten for several days. An Yi's mouth twitched a few times.
I slept for two days and two nights?
No!
It's hard to put into words, but An Yi always felt like he had forgotten something...
With a changeable complexion, he put his mobile phone back in its original place, and An Yi's eyebrows were tightly furrowed.
What was forgotten?
An Yi's eyes twitched as he walked over to the sofa and picked up that non-phone 'phone'.
The old-fashioned mobile phone had a colorful pattern in the middle of the screen that was quite eye-catching. The agarwood incense stick in the middle was slowly burning and was almost burned to the end.
An Yi finally remembered what he had forgotten!
Slept for two days straight and almost slept through the start of the next game...
The sandalwood in the pattern is burning slowly and shows no signs of stopping.
An Yi's face changed color, hesitated for a moment, and then his thumb landed on that pattern.
That earring nose ring man said... Tianxuan Sai can get props
！
Tool!
Thinking back to that glasses man No. 13 being able to escape death, An Yi indeed felt a little moved. And in order to enter the 'Tianxuan Tournament', one only needed to press this pattern for 10 seconds.
Sandalwood is about to burn to the end, even if it doesn't enter the 'Heavenly Punishment Match', it will inevitably enter the 'Regular Season'.
He lightly pressed the pattern for a moment, and An Yi's eyes condensed, but he moved his thumb away again.
As for the Tianxian Tournament, An Yi could be said to know very little. If he were to participate so rashly...
The thumb had just moved away, and the pattern on the screen of that old-fashioned 'mobile phone' changed.
What is this? The eerie window overlaid the original pattern.
Code: A314
Session: Primary;
Points: 3;
Honors: Invincible in Battle (Hidden) * 1, Turning the Tide (Hidden) * 1;
Props: Substitute Grass Man * 3, Low-key Luxury (Permanent).
The lines of words in the eerie window flickered slightly, and An Yi hesitated for a moment before his finger first lightly swept over 'code name'.
Code name: Name, just a code name. And A314 is your code name! It will accompany you for the rest of your life. Until... death!
An Yi's eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her fingers slid over 'round' again.
Rank: Rank can't measure your IQ, but it can measure your experience! Primary! Undoubtedly exposes that you are a rookie.
"Beginner? Rookie?" An Yi self-deprecatingly smiled and slid his thumb towards the words "points".
Points: Points, not only determine the promotion of the game, but also represent the only currency system!
"Promotion of the scene? The only currency system?" An Yi's eyes flowed with thoughts.
。
An Yi had previously suspected that the promotion method might be related to points when he heard the 13th glasses man speak, but he didn't expect that points would also serve as the only currency system in that strange world.
"What honor?" An Yi's eyes flickered.
Honor: Youfang Huolang is a suspicious and petty person, wanting to trade with him requires proving your worth. Honor is the best proof.
"Traveling peddler?" An Yi, who had barely participated in two games, looked at this inexplicable term in surprise.
"Could it be a transaction object in the form of an NPC?" A brief moment of contemplation, and a possibility floated up into An Yi's mind.
With a flick of her finger, An Yi deliberately clicked on those two honors.
Invincible in Battle: Hidden Honor; Single match 3 times experience PK stage and KO opponent.
Turning the tide: Hidden Honor; in a single game when only three people are left, the sole civilian vote cast the decisive ballot, leading to victory.
Watching these two secretly obtain honor, An Yi's face was strange.
No wonder it's a hidden honor. Both of these honors are not easy to obtain. Even if An Yi knows the method of obtaining now, it is still very difficult to get again.
And... will there be another chance to draw lots after re-obtaining these two hidden honors?
Thinking of drawing lots, An Yi's finger moved towards the line 'Props'.
Props: Props can be used by yourself, and also can be used for trading. Substitute Grass Man * 3 + Low-key Luxury (Permanent), Tsk tsk, you're already a small-time wealthy rookie!
Strawman: To die in place of, to die in place of, how shallow a phrase is it? If you don't understand, no matter how many strawmen there are, they can't save your life!
Understated elegance: the sparkle in the sky, even on a dark night, cannot be covered up; understatement is just a cloak for elegance to cover up its dazzling light. But... can true elegance be easily concealed?
With understated elegance, the game world conceals its true form. And... in a single round of gameplay, there is a certain probability to resist the inspection of the imperial envoy.
。
Friendship notes, using low-key luxury, reality with surprises oh oh oh!
An Yi looked curiously at the annotations of these two props.
Straw man for substitution, there is only one transaction option, it should be that as long as there is, when needed, it will be used by itself. On the contrary, that low-key luxury...
An Yi tried using that low-key elegance, and then... there was no then!
Looking up and down at himself, An Yi's eyes couldn't hide his confusion.
Low-key elegance, notes on hiding in the game, and a certain probability of resisting inspection in single-player games. An Yi could understand it. But...
What does it mean for reality to have surprises?
An Yi really didn't see any impact or change on himself after using this low-key luxury.
An Yi's expression changed slightly as he looked at his 'cell phone'.
The window was restored to that colorful pattern again, and at this time the sandalwood in the middle of the pattern had already burned to the end.
A black hole suddenly appeared, with black chains extending out and pulling towards Anyi's body.
The phone rang just in time, but An Yi had no way of answering it.
Helplessly watching the phone on the windowsill vibrating slightly, An Yi's figure was swallowed up by the black hole bit by bit.
