In the tea house.
Zhang Ze chatted with the young waiter next to him while mimicking Tang’s way of skimming the froth off the tea with the cup lid.
The tea entered his mouth, and feeling the unchanged taste, Zhang Ze was once again convinced that this was a ga.
This ga is not realistic at all; the tea that costs ten coins tastes the sa as the tea that costs fifty coins.
Through conversations with Profound Identification and his own understanding, Zhang Ze could already confirm that this so-called Jade Book Tower was just an Immortal Cultivation version of big VR.
Or to sound cooler, the official na is Jade Book Illusion Realm.
Each layer here records fragnts of certain historical events, and this tower has ninety-nine layers.
The ultimate secret is at the topmost layer.
This design, full of riddles, fits Zhang Ze’s stereotype of ancient civilizations.
They would never write secrets in words Maomao could understand on stones.
Instead, it’s like this, with interconnected clues and various foreshadowing, leaving people to guess.
Serves Dongqi right for going bankrupt.
Zhang Ze made a silent decision then if he ever becos famous for centuries, he would write everything in words Maomao could understand on stones.
But then again, although saving information with the Jade Book Illusion Realm seems unnecessary...
The Jade Book Illusion Realm is indeed quite advanced, at least more advanced than his uncle Wei Zhuang’s dreams.
Firstly, because you don’t have to play house with the elders, you can exit the Jade Book Illusion Realm at any ti.
If Zhang Ze didn’t want to play anymore, he just needed to tell the Profound Identification Treasure Mirror, which acted as custor service.
Unlike so garbage gas where you couldn’t leave once you entered, and dying ant you were really dead, this place didn’t kill people.
The second point is that the Jade Book Illusion Realm allows for exploiting so small bugs.
Can’t help it, it’s a habit. Zhang Ze always found bugs first when playing gas.
Zhang Ze just made a couple of exits in front of the young waiter for an experint.
Then he managed to trigger a small bug with the young waiter.
Each ti you enter and exit the Illusion Realm, certain deductions are reset for Zhang Ze.
Simply put, the Illusion Realm has an auto-save feature, and parts not saved don’t count.
The ti in the Illusion Realm is not synchronized with the outside world; staying here for five days is only about a quarter of an hour outside.
Both tis, Zhang Ze tasted a pot of tea and then returned to the lobby. When he re-entered, the waiter’s state had just reset to when he first t Zhang Ze.
Using this thod, Zhang Ze got two pots of tea for free from the young waiter.
Theoretically, as long as Zhang Ze had enough leisure ti, he could use this thod to freeload the entire Little Jin River town.
Yes, the first layer of the Jade Book Illusion Realm is a place called Little Jin River Town, along with an area covering sixty miles around.
It’s rather large.
Zhang Ze felt like he had seen this Little Jin River place sowhere before; after thinking for a long ti, he finally rembered seeing it in Tang’s possession.
When moving mountains with the Beast Taming Sect, Tang had a book of Fengshui Secret Skills inherited from Dragon Tiger Mountain.
This book, in Tang and the others’ eyes, contained the true Taoist Technique left by the Ancestral Master.
But in Zhang Ze’s eyes, the book was just the Ancestral Master’s rebellion diary from Dragon Tiger Mountain.
And Little Jin River Town was where that Ancestral Master started his career.
"Sir? Sir? Would you like to order anything else?" The young waiter lightly coughed, interrupting Zhang Ze’s contemplation.
Zhang Ze smiled slightly, "No more."
After saying that, he logged off on the spot.
When he logged back in, the young waiter’s attitude was as if eting for the first ti.
Without waiting for the young waiter to speak, he directly rose from his seat, and with a gentle smile, said, "I’m not thirsty, just passing by."
After speaking, he calmly brushed past the young waiter and walked onto the street.
Walking a while on the street, Zhang Ze regretted having given all his money to that Brother Hu in an act of showing off.
The Jade Book Illusion Realm forbade self-customization; his current identity was a poor governnt official, and his only possession was this broken knife at his side.
As Zhang Ze pondered how to get so money, the sound of horse hooves clattered again.
The carriage that had just left the city returned, stopping elegantly in front of Zhang Ze, and Junior Sister opened the window to call out to him, "Get in!"
"Miss, we can’t do this! If the master finds out..." said the unnad coachman, who also served as a guard and gatekeeper.
"Hmm, Old Liu, you wouldn’t want the master to know that you’ve been sneaking a bite of the imperial tribute, would you?"
Evidently, during the carriage’s round trip, Chen Qin unearthed so significant secret about Old Liu.
The intimidating Old Liu awkwardly smiled and readily let Zhang Ze board the carriage.
After boarding the carriage, Chen Qin rely held Zhang Ze’s hand without speaking until the carriage arrived at a large mansion. Only then did Chen Qin lead Zhang Ze off the carriage, running into the backyard under Old Liu’s astonished and angry gaze and dismissed all the maids.
"Senior Brother, what’s your task?" Once they were alone, Chen Qin imdiately asked.
"Huh?" Zhang Ze thought he had heard wrong.
Seeing Zhang Ze’s puzzled expression, Chen Qin began to explain.
"Don’t worry, Senior Brother, there’s no one else in this courtyard now. Talking about these things won’t be overheard. Anything not said in front of them won’t get you kicked out of the Jade Book Illusion Realm."
"You know this is the Jade Book Illusion Realm?" Zhang Ze asked.
"Of course, everyone coming in gets a new identity and a task. Those who can’t complete the task within the given ti are sent out of the Illusion Realm.
"My task is..."
Chen Qin played coy and then revealed a rather clichéd task.
"Tiger hunting!"
Specifically, she had to hunt a fierce tiger within three days and deliver it to the Town Lord’s Mansion.
