[Novel Blurb]
*
Jiang Buqing had no notable talents or special skills. His only hobby was dragging his buddies to an internet café to play games all night.
He closed his eyes and opened them again, and found himself inside the game.
Jiang Buqing rubbed his hands together, ready to show off his skills. Then he turned and saw a golden-haired NPC in a hospital gown staring at him expressionlessly.
The stairwell was packed, and bloated, rotting monsters had them trapped on the rooftop.
Why was this a horror game?!
Jiang Buqing grabbed the NPC and jumped from the second floor.
The good news: they didn’t die.
The bad news: the unharmed NPC was underneath him, staring coldly.
Jiang Buqing thought for two seconds. “I’m really good at fighting monsters. Want to come with me?”
01 lowered his eyes, hiding the blood-red monsters that kept trying to squeeze out through the gaps in his eyelids, and smiled obediently. “Sure, bro.”
*
Jiang Buqing thought this meant survival wouldn’t be a problem, at least. But as they spent more time together, he realized his NPC sidekick only had one skill:
Whenever Jiang Buqing tried to escape, he would grab him with perfect precision and whimper, “Bro, I’m so scared.”
To preserve his dignity, Jiang Buqing had to draw on years of online gaming experience. He would strike first when the other guy wasn’t ready, and if he couldn’t win, he’d dodge nimbly
And somehow, it worked every time.
Even the mightiest monsters ended up flat on their faces at Jiang Buqing’s trembling knees.
Afterward, 01 always played along, saying, “With your skills, bro, taking on a boss alone would be a piece of cake.” He flattered Jiang Buqing into offering up his lips without complaint.
They were good bros. What was wrong with kissing?
Jiang Buqing licked his bitten lip, never noticing that 01 had casually crushed a piece of his own body that had crawled back out of the monster.
*
Monsters in the horror world could jump out at any moment. They failed to catch Jiang Buqing, but they did catch the timid, nervous 01.
When Jiang Buqing rescued him, the other man was ice-cold and clung to him, trembling. “Bro, save me.”
Jiang Buqing agreed without hesitation.
It was just…
Jiang Buqing buried his face in the pillow, his voice on the verge of tears. “Bro, now that you’re warm, could you get out?”
*
After learning that the game’s final boss most often appeared in the asylum, Jiang Buqing, having defeated most of the monsters, marched off full of confidence to fight it to the death.
When the basement door opened, 01 stood behind it, his gaze burning hot with greedy madness.
Jiang Buqing turned and ran.
But no matter where he ran, the monsters he had once defeated with ease stared at him with the same look. From their pitch-black throats came 01’s gentle, smiling voice:
“Bro, you’re going to be with me forever.”

Yang Xiaodou was a country lamb who worked diligently to cultivate a human form. Carrying the whole village’s dream of “building a road through the mountains,” he marched into the city to find work.
But without an ID card, almost every employer turned him away.
Unable to find a job, Yang Xiaodou could only run errands for powerful monsters. He might get eaten at any moment, and the pay was miserable.
Then one day, in the territory of Tuliang, a powerful monster who loved to tease him, he found a human covered in blood.
As an undocumented resident, Yang Xiaodou worried that witnessing a dead body would get him hauled in for questioning, so he hurriedly left the man outside a hospital.
He thought he’d gotten away without anyone noticing. But a week later, the man showed up with a stack of contracts that Yang Xiaodou couldn’t understand and told him to name his terms.
Looking at the man’s stern, refined features, Yang Xiaodou picked at a hole in his clothes and spoke in a small voice:
“Room and board, a monthly salary of three thousand, and an ID card.”

Zhou Jiming was a talented young man, wealthy beyond measure, and even secretly enjoyed hunting monsters and exorcising demons. Life had always gone his way, until he had an accident while hunting the man-eating sheep demon Tuliang.
On the verge of death, he was rescued by a boy with round eyes and a round face, who murmured to him not to be afraid.
He was adorable.
Grateful for being saved, Zhou Jiming found the boy and immediately registered their marriage, offering himself in return.
But married life wasn’t as sweet as he’d imagined.
His wife was hardly ever home, and Zhou Jiming, who had waited thirty years to find a wife, was lovesick with longing.
At noon, while discussing business with a client at an upscale restaurant, Zhou Jiming thought the waiter in a tailcoat looked like his wife. In the afternoon, while returning a lost little monster to a tour group from the countryside, he thought the tour guide wearing a little bee badge looked like his wife. In the evening, while taking his four-year-old niece shopping… even the little lamb in the pet section looked like his wife.
After Zhou Jiming successfully dealt with Tuliang, he was carrying the sheep’s head home when he ran into Yang Xiaodou, who was catching crabs with his bare hands.
His little wife, whom he normally wouldn’t even ask to wash fruit, had hands red with cold. Even after being scolded, he just grinned foolishly.
But the moment he saw Zhou Jiming, he screamed and turned to run.
In the damp, dark end of an alley, his little wife’s face was streaked with tears. He clutched his head and trembled, then hurriedly covered his backside when Zhou Jiming came closer.
That was when Zhou Jiming finally saw it:
His wife had two little horns and a short, perky tail.
He was a fluffy little lamb after all.
Little scene:
After learning Yang Xiaodou’s true identity, Zhou Jiming tried every day to coax him into showing his horns and tail.
Thinking about what would happen next made Yang Xiaodou’s tail ache, so he refused no matter what.
Zhou Jiming brought out the road-building contract.
Yang Xiaodou: 0.o
Zhou Jiming said casually, “I also built a school.”
Yang Xiaodou’s tail twitched.
Zhou Jiming offered more. “And introduced technology to help with farming.”
Yang Xiaodou hurriedly pushed his tail into Zhou Jiming’s hand. “Honey, dig a little river too.”

After covering the front and covering the back, this Xiaojiang is also full of straight male flavor.
I really want to watch it uncensored, but I don't understand who is helping whom.
After reading it, I was very moved. Jiang Buqing, who was always pretending in the early stage, really did something big in the end. Even though no one knew it, he really became a hero and saved them. It would be better if there were some modern and heartwarming stories about the two of them later. For example, 01 learned modern life skills and had nine years of compulsory education (this is very important). Sometimes I couldn't understand what Shou said, and I felt anxious for him [vomiting blood]
Manual star eye. Give you more🌲It's nice and nice 🥺🥺
It looks nice, but does it feel like you are looking for dumplings in vinegar?! It feels like everyone has accepted the fact of entering the game as a matter of course, and the game is currently quite foggy, and players seem to have little desire to explore the game itself. Is it because humans have resigned to the world view of supernatural events (?)? In short, it's straight to the meat of the show (including the game that Xiaojiang deleted. This has been guessed a long time ago, but it was revealed very late. Compared with the emotional line, Yiqi Juechen's plot line, the pace is very slow and the amount of information is very small. In addition, I always feel that Xiaojiang and others are not very environmentally friendly (?). The NPC ecological cycle is not very clear. Don't be persecuted and squeezed out (hey)
