Difficult to heal

When Lu Shu returned to the company, the first person he met was Tang Xingchen.

The other party was about to go out to do errands, and the assistant followed him. When he saw him, he looked from head to toe.

Then slowly, inadvertently, a very slight change occurred, and teasing rose in his eyes.

Tang Xingchen: "Oh, huh—"

Lu Shu: "..."

He turned a deaf ear and walked past Tang Xingchen.

The latter laughed twice as if watching a good show, didn't say much, and left the company with his assistant.

As soon as he arrived at the floor of the president's office, Lin Jing immediately greeted him: "Mr. Lu, the conference room is ready."

Because Lu Shu didn't come in the morning, the originally scheduled plenary meeting was postponed to the afternoon.

"You go downstairs first," Lu Shu said, "I'll get something."

"Ok."

After the preview of "Guard Contract 2" came out last night, the popularity directly rushed to the top of the rankings.

All Lu Xing started to prepare intensively, and just one meeting of the R&D department lasted nearly six hours.

Not to mention ordinary employees, even those at the level of Lu Shu have joined the ranks of overtime. It is common for the Luxing Building to be brightly lit in the early morning and midnight.

After half a month, the faces of all the bright and beautiful white-collar workers were sallow.

Tang Xingchen was on the run day and night, running around at home and abroad, and made more than a dozen errands back and forth. The cats and dogs at home almost didn't recognize him.

Fortunately, Ying Cheng is also busy, otherwise the family happiness may be difficult to maintain.

In addition to "Guard Contract 2", Lu Shu also has an online game "Soul of Sword".

The two projects started at the same time, so it can be said that they were so busy that they even spent the night in the company several times.

Zhong Ding sent some people to form a project team with Lu Xing. Except that everyone felt like they were in prison, the rest of the cooperation and communication were quite pleasant.

After more than a month of desperation, the general framework of the online game was finally made.

"Soul of Sword" was also officially renamed "Xuqin Tomb".

On the day when the background story pilot film was played, Lu Shu happened to be there, and they went into the conference room to watch it together.

There was no sound in the room, and everyone turned their attention to the same place.

On the huge projection screen, a desolate and dilapidated tomb mountain appeared.

A black crow flew over, the quiet and dead air was pierced, and the screams suddenly burst out.

The black crow instantly exploded into a flower of blood, which smeared on the screen.

After a long time, messy handprints were printed on the blood, which were slowly wiped away, revealing a face without eyes.

……

This is the most famous county and village in Yunzhou. There is a statue of a general named Yuanhuan enshrined in the village.

According to legend, Yuan Huan was a famous general who founded the country, but in the end he was wronged and died tragically.

The emperor specially built a golden statue of the general for him, and enshrined it in the village of Yuanhuan's ancestral county. It seems that the general has a spirit in heaven, and several promising sons were born in the village, and the villagers gradually became rich.

But I don't know when, strange things happened frequently in the village.

Young people turn gray overnight, pregnant women give birth to children with only half of their faces, and animals raised at home howl in the middle of the night. The next day, bloody corpses are strewn all over the field. Finally, it is discovered that the old man killed the animal...

The villagers were panic-stricken, and it was futile to go to worship the general every day. The matter broke out and spread to the ears of the county magistrate.

The county magistrate listened to some charlatan and sent several arresters to take away a child from each of the village households where the accident happened.

At first the villagers would make troubles, but since then, all the strange things have disappeared.

The white-headed ones returned to normal, the children who lost half of their faces grew back, and the old people would not kill animals for no reason.

The villagers wept with joy, and said that those children might be disaster monsters, and the county magistrate knew everything and caught it well.

However, it didn't take long before the disaster came back, even worse than last time.

Another group of children was taken away.

Everyone began to take it for granted, and this kind of sacrifice activity gradually evolved into a custom, and even had an elegant name-"Requiem".

No one knew that the requiem children were actually taken to the cemetery hill in the wilderness. It was a mass grave during the war. Five children were thrown into it in each batch, including men, women and children.

Once inside, the children died violently one after another inexplicably.

Only one, because he was afraid of the cold and slept in a rotten coffin, did not die unexpectedly, and a sword appeared out of thin air beside him.

In the light reflected by the sword, he saw his own future - he was pierced through the chest by the sword and died.

But in order to survive temporarily, he had to take it with him.

This is where the story unfolds.

Five children, the player can choose one at will, and start the novice task to escape the mass grave.

With different choices, the story lines will be different, but there will be overlapping parts in the later stage.

That is to say, in the later stage of the game, players will connect with other players because of branch lines, thus forming different camps.

Like many online games, "Xuqin Tomb" also has systems such as pinching your own face, making medicine, forming a partner, and creating a guild.

The difference is that this game is more playable, and the proportion of tasks that require machinery to do tasks is relatively small.

More is in the main line branch line, through the player to dig out different plots, find clues and NPC or other players to fight wits and bravery, so as to upgrade to the top.

And for some players who don't like to fight, kill, and kill the plot, they can also try the life growth gameplay and create their own world in the game.

The production purpose of "Virtual Qin Tomb" is to strive to completely reproduce a real fantasy world.

Let the character itself become a "person" with flesh and blood, which can enable players to experience the online game world personally.

After the pilot film finished playing, the conference room remained silent.

Some people were shocked by the exquisiteness of the picture, while the other part was a little uneasy, and kept sneaking glances at the people in the main seat.

No one is sure whether the things produced by the team this time will satisfy Mr. Lu, after all, several proposals have been rejected before.

Lu Shu couldn't see the good or the bad. When everyone held their breaths, he commented: "Just follow this standard and continue to do it."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, especially the project team leader, who knows how he got here for more than a month.

Applause sounded, and the meeting room was closed.

Lu Shu stepped into the office with his front foot, and Li Yucheng followed him in.

He took out a thermos from behind as if by magic, and put it on the table: "Mr. Lu, you've been too tired recently. This is my mother's pork rib soup. Try it."

Lu Shu was indeed very tired. He stayed up all night last night and was exhausted physically and mentally. He didn't even want to talk at the moment.

He wanted to shake his head and refuse, but Li Yucheng had the foresight to put it down and leave.

A carbine returned to the door, and he pointed his head and said, "Mr. Lu, it's shameful to waste it. I believe you will finish your drink."

Lu Shu was at a loss for words, and after he left, he called Lin Jing in.

"Sparse rib soup, take it if you want to drink it, and share it with others if you don't drink it."

As Lu Shu said, he closed his eyes and leaned back in the sofa chair.

Lin Jing was flattered: "Did your family survive?"

"No."

The other party looked very tired, Lin Jing didn't dare to disturb him, so he put on the thermos and left.

After a good night's sleep, my mind cleared up a lot.

Lu Shu washed his face in the bathroom attached to the office, took out his phone and clicked on WeChat.

Since that time when he became a friend, he and Xiu Qinjiang haven't talked.

The interface only has a cold system greeting message, which is similar to adding a zombie account.

Recently, because of being busy with work, even though Zhong Ding's name can be heard from time to time, he has never seen Xiu Qinjiang.

It's been almost a month and a half, and the incident at the hotel seemed like an unexpected desire to vent, and both of them agreed that there was no follow-up.

Lu Shu lingered on the dialog box for a while, and finally chose to turn off the screen.

He took the keys to the car and went out. As it was approaching off-duty time, people came and went in the lobby on the first floor.

People greeted him one after another, and Lu Shu nodded back.

There were some people outside the automatic glass gate, talking about it very loudly, and occasionally there were two exclamations in the crowd.

Lu Shu frowned slightly, and it wasn't so noisy after get off work.

He was about to call Lin Jing to inform the security guard, but the next second, the other party squeezed out from the crowd.

Seeing Lu Shu, she was overjoyed.

Without the usual restraint, Lin Jing hurried over excitedly: "Mr. Lu, you are here."

Lu Shu was puzzled by her sudden lively appearance: "Why?"

Lin Jing was more puzzled than him, wondering: "Didn't you receive the call?"

Lu Shu had a strange feeling in his heart, and he had an intuition that the noisy crowd in front of him might be related to him.

He stepped forward without saying a word.

Seeing that it was Mr. Lu, everyone hurriedly concealed their gossip and excitement, and consciously moved out of the way.

Outside the Lu Xing company building, there was a huge cart full of purple roses.

It can't be described as a bunch, and the flower path below occupies one-third of the cart.

Roughly estimated, there must be eight or nine thousand flowers.

The person who gave the flowers was very stylish. The pure white cart was tied with a transparent ribbon, which was very uniquely decorated, and every flower was very beautiful.

The errand merchant was a young brother, who politely asked who Mr. Lu Shu was one by one.

Someone pointed in this direction, and the little brother was suddenly enlightened, and walked over with a standard smile: "Excuse me, is this Mr. Lu?"

The veins on Lu Shu's forehead twitched, and he asked, "Who gave it to you?"

"The flower sender is anonymous," the little brother handed out a card, "but I left a card for you."

Lu Shu took it and opened it to have a look.

It says, I have admired Mr. Lu for a long time, and I hope that Mr. Lu will not dislike him and accept this trivial kindness.

At the end, I drew a four-dimensional love heart, and signed with only one word, Jiang.

Lu Shu: "..."

The little brother thoughtfully said: "Shall I move it up for you?"

"No need," Lu Shu put the card in his pocket and told Lin Jing, "Take a few people and put them in the warehouse."

Lin Jing: "?"

Confused for a few seconds, I changed my mind again.

Indeed, thousands of flowers don't need to treat people in the office.

She said yes, and turned to call the security guard.

All the gossip faces around looked eagerly, but due to Mr. Lu's majesty, no one had the guts to satisfy their curiosity.

After Hua was pushed away, the crowd dispersed spontaneously, but they were still whispering, discussing which young lady dared to show her love so blatantly.

The little brother who finished the task and was about to leave was stopped by Lu Shu.

Without changing his face, he said, "As many flowers as that person ordered from you, I will also order as many flowers."

"Instead of red roses, they will be delivered to Zhongding Tower on time at noon every day in three months."

The business came unexpectedly, the little brother was overjoyed, and said quickly: "Okay! I promise to take care of it for you."

—

Downstairs of Zhongding, a group of well-dressed people in formal attire came out chatting and laughing happily.

Surrounded by two men in front, they all had the same extraordinary temperament, but one was mature and steady, and the other had a loose smile on his face.

Zhong Wenzhu stayed in the capital for more than a month, and went to various branches to show up.

It can be regarded as an official statement that from now on Zhong Ding's branch in China will be fully empowered by the general manager Qin Jiang.

As for those who want to rely on the old and sell the old to disobey, it is best to carefully consider it.

Knowing that Zhong Wenzhu was going back to England tomorrow, several people from the business circle heard the news and rushed over, saying it was for Mr. Zhong to practice, but in fact they wanted to get some benefits.

After chatting in the company for two or three hours, I'm going to have a "light meal" now.

A group of people walked out of the office building, several commercial vehicles were parked outside, and Chu Qinjiang planned to find a reason to turn down this boring meal.

A Maybach appeared on the road ahead.

The Maybach stopped on the side of the road, and the driver opened the door to get out of the car.

His shoulders were wide and his legs were long, his shirt collar was partly unbuttoned, he didn't wear a tie, his suit was more casual than usual, his hair was a little messy on his forehead, coupled with his indifferent expression, he added a different kind of uninhibited feeling.

He raised his eyes to look this way, and at the same time he saw Chu Qinjiang, Chu Qinjiang also saw him.

Lu Shu didn't go any further, put one hand in his pocket, and casually shook his phone with the other hand.

Xiu Qinjiang's phone vibrated, and there was a new message.

-come over.

Xiu Qinjiang raised his eyebrows with great interest, turned his footsteps, and left the crowd.

Zhong Wenzhu also stopped when he saw this, and called to him: "Where are you going?"

Xiu Qinjiang didn't turn his head back: "Looking for a lover."

"..."

Zhong Wenzhu was about to speak when a loud noise came from obliquely ahead unexpectedly.

Immediately after the heat wave hit the face, there were screams all around.

Xiu Qinjiang froze in place, watching helplessly as the roof of a commercial vehicle was blown into the air.

Fragments flew, and there was a sudden pain in the wrist.

Lu Shu, who was more than ten meters away, changed his expression drastically, and ran over regardless of the danger.

The explosion happened so suddenly that everyone present was terrified. Zhong Wen, who was the closest, was stunned by the strong impact.

When Lu Shu rushed over from the opposite side, Xiu Qinjiang subconsciously pulled him into his arms.

He didn't let go of his arms until he was far away from the danger zone.

Fortunately, Zhong Ding had a lot of problems on weekdays, and it was stipulated that there should be no idle people within a certain radius, and the explosion range was not large, so there were no major casualties except for a few cars that were affected.

The ambulance and firefighters arrived in time, and quickly cordoned off the scene, and those who fainted were carried into the car.

Lu Shu pulled Xuan Qinjiang up and down to check, and after making sure that only his wrist was cut, he relieved a little.

Immediately, he became nervous again, pulled off the opponent's tie, and tied the wound on his wrist tightly to stop the bleeding.

Lu Shu could not refuse and dragged the master: "Go to the hospital."

Xu Qinjiang let him pull him around, and after getting into the co-pilot of the Maybach, his hands were bleeding, and he was still free to make sarcastic remarks.

"What are you afraid of?" Xiu Qinjiang said nonchalantly, "I can't die."

Lu Shu's expression turned ugly: "I advise you to shut up now."

Hu Qinjiang's eyes narrowed into a smile: "It's so fierce, Mr. Lu."

Lu Shu ignored him, drove to the hospital quickly, dragged him into the treatment room and bandaged him.

The wound was a bit deep, because it was an emergency department and there was no time to administer anesthesia, so the doctor sewed three stitches directly.

Xuan Qinjiang was fine, he didn't even blink, but Lu Shu's expression became more and more serious.

Xiu Qinjiang wanted to tease him, but the latter went straight out.

After the medicine was applied and bandaged, Lu Shu was still on the phone outside.

He lowered his voice, and his tone was frighteningly cold: "Go and investigate, don't worry about the dead ghost, this kind of thing is hard to get in China, go abroad to check."

After a few more orders, he hung up the phone.

He turned his head and met Shangxiu Qinjiang's teasing gaze.

After a pause, Lu Shu slowed down his tone slightly: "Is it done?"

Xiu Qinjiang hummed, leaned slightly, looked him straight and said, "Lu Shu, you're too nervous."

Lu Shu's eyes fell on his bandaged left wrist, and he said lightly, "Yes, I should watch you get blown to death."

Xiu Qinjiang smiled, didn't answer, turned around and leaned side by side with him outside the hospital corridor.

After a while, Lu Shu asked, "Do you know who it is?"

Xiu Qinjiang didn't hide it: "There are only a few people, so you don't need to guess."

With such a familiar tone, Lu Shu couldn't help frowning.

Then I heard him say again: "But this time it's not for me."
