The System is Abstract, Luckily, So Am I
Chapter 109 : Courage Is the Funeral Song of Humanity
The bus stopped at the entrance of Pingjiang Amusement Park.
Although it was Friday, perhaps because many schools were on autumn break, and this kind of amusement park was a popular destination for autumn outings, there was already a small crowd of tourists before the park even opened, and they were mainly students.
And many schools, it could be seen, had mandatory school uniforms.
With the arrival of the Nansang students, the crowd grew even larger.
"This is Teacher Wang Ziyan, the head teacher of Class 17, and this is Teacher Zhou Pei, the head teacher of Class 6. If you encounter any situations or difficulties in the amusement park, you can ask any of us for help on your phones..."
After entering the amusement park, it was impossible to move as a group anymore. The students were definitely allowed to play according to their own wishes. Therefore, while distributing the group tickets from the ticket office, Xue Jian once again emphasized the safety issues.
The head teachers of the other two classes were both quite young, a man and a woman. They looked like they had just graduated from college, but they were already head teachers. They had really embarked on a path of no return at such a young age.
Even princes had to be teachers these days.
Lin Li and the others quickly got their tickets.
There was also a mystery to the tickets. After scanning the QR code with a phone to enter the electronic ticket, an option would pop up, allowing them to choose eight projects they wanted to play the most.
After entering the park, as long as they scanned the electronic ticket at the entrance of the corresponding project, they would have one chance to use the fast track for that project. This way, even when it was crowded, they could play the project they wanted at least once.
The fast track, which was usually charged for in other places, was provided for free here, which was quite conscientious.
However, because of this, even with the fast track, popular projects might not be fast.
But since it was free, there was nothing to complain about.
"What are you guys going to choose?" Lin Li looked at Zhou Baowei and Bai Bufan and asked.
As a large amusement park for all ages, Pingjiang Amusement Park naturally had a wide variety of projects, covering all kinds of attributes.
In the amusement park, Lin Li still planned to be with Bai Bufan and the others, not Chen Yuying and the others. Apart from the fact that they had already made plans, it was indeed much more comfortable to play with bros than with girls.
It wasn't that Lin Li disliked the projects that girls played as childish and boring.
Don't even mention it.
Damn it, that crazy Ding Sihan, when she got off the bus just now, she pointed at the longest and largest roller coaster with an inverted section in the distance and said she wanted to ride it ten times today.
Qu Wanqiu even directly said she would ride it twenty times.
Compared to them, Lin Li was more like the new recruit who liked carousels and Barbie dolls.
Lin Li was still a little afraid of this kind of super long and suspended inverted roller coaster.
It seemed a bit too exciting.
Therefore, it was better to be a coward in front of his bros than in front of his two daughters.
And Zhou Baowei looked at his phone, then his face became excited, "Isn't there a recommendation for the most exciting options here? Then let's do these eight. After playing them all, we can even get a warrior pin.
'Out of the Clouds', 'Azure Dragon Roller Coaster', 'Raging Rapids', 'Tianshan Hospital'... It's a pity that bungee jumping is an extra-cost project, 80 yuan per person. It's so expensive, otherwise I could go up and jump ten or eight times."
Lin Li: "..."
Damn you, Zhou Baowei. When I get married, you, Ding Sihan, and Qu Wanqiu can sit at the same table.
Lin Li's face was calm, and he didn't say anything, because he knew someone would be a coward before him.
"Hey! You want your bro to die!" Bai Bufan took half a step back. "Baowei, I really can't stand the excessive feeling of weightlessness. I'm also afraid of heights. Playing Raging Rapids and those things is already my limit. This spinning and diving machine and this roller coaster that goes in circles in the sky, I'll definitely die if I ride them."
"You won't. I checked. Pingjiang Amusement Park has been open for twelve years and there hasn't been a single fatal accident. You won't die. At most, you'll break an arm or a leg," Zhou Baowei denied.
Bai Bufan: "..."
So rigorous, bro.
You've learned the essence of comforting from Lin Li.
Bai Bufan looked at the 'calm and composed' Lin Li. Just as Lin Li knew his courage, he also knew that Lin Li's courage was only a little greater than his. Therefore, Bai Bufan spoke again, "Baowei, it's meaningless for just the two of us to decide. The three of us, for the sake of democracy and for everyone to have fun, the minority must obey the majority!"
"So now the key vote is on you, Lin Li. Whose side do you choose to stand on?"
Receiving the signal, Lin Li gave Bai Bufan a look that said 'you know' and 'leave it to me'.
"Alright, Lin Li, what do you say?"
Zhou Baowei sighed. Looking at the two of them exchanging glances, his goal had already become to fight for the fast track for one or two exciting projects.
As for playing by himself, Zhou Baowei felt that it would be more interesting to play 'boring' projects with his brothers.
Friends are the highest configuration.
Seeing that Zhou Baowei had agreed, the plan was set.
Lin Li laughed out loud.
Then he stopped laughing.
"I fully support Baowei's idea. Let's choose the eight most exciting ones," he said.
"Okay! Baowei, did you hear that? So we... huh?" Bai Bufan, who had been hehe-ing, stopped hehe-ing when he realized what was happening.
He turned his head and pressed his forehead against Lin Li's, staring at Lin Li like a Piggyback meme, "Lin Li, what did you say?"
Lin Li was like an empty shell that had lost its soul, with a fake smile, "I said, if we're going to play, let's play the most exciting ones."
You damn system.
What changed Lin Li's mind was naturally the mission that had just been issued.
[Today, by fate, you can enter the Pingjiang Secret Realm. Before the opportunity, there will naturally be many trials and crises. But a cultivator should have a firm heart to move forward. How can you be afraid and weak? You should clear the secret realm with a sweeping posture and obtain the proof of a warrior!]
[Mission Triggered!]
[Mission 5: Pass the eight challenges of the Pingjiang Secret Realm with a fearless and dashing posture.]
[Reward: Constitution Improvement: Limb Control Ability +100%; Random Ability*1; System Currency*100.]
What else could he do?
Do it!
But Bai Bufan didn't know. He only knew that he had been betrayed again. At this moment, his lips were trembling, and he couldn't speak.
"A wise choice, Lin Li!" When someone was sad, someone was happy. Zhou Baowei excitedly patted Lin Li's shoulder, very gratified by Lin Li's growth. Then he looked at Bai Bufan, "Bufan, you said it yourself, the minority obeys the majority. Now you have no right to refuse."
"I think... we should discuss this at length? Speaking of which, it makes sense that the truth is often in the hands of the minority, so the majority should obey the minority. You two should listen to me," Bai Bufan always had his own reasoning.
Zhou Baowei: "..."
You have so much fucking reasoning.
Lin Li and Baowei exchanged a glance.
"You're right," Lin Li looked at Bai Bufan and nodded.
Seeing that there was room for negotiation, Bai Bufan immediately became excited, "Right! Lin Li, think about it again! Isn't it good for us to play something relaxing? Think about it, the three of us holding hands, riding on the carousel, galloping on horseback, how manly is that! How heroic!"
Apologize to manliness and heroism.
"I'll think about it," but Lin Li frowned and fell into thought.
Bai Bufan naturally began to chatter on the side, determined to make Lin Li turn back.
"Are you done?" Lin Li suddenly said.
"What's done?" Bai Bufan was puzzled.
"OK," Zhou Baowei nodded.
"Let's go, let's get ready to enter the park," Lin Li turned and walked away.
"No, what happened? Before we enter the park, let's discuss which fast tracks to choose!" Looking at the two of them leaving, Bai Bufan felt isolated.
Until he saw Zhou Baowei holding his phone.
Bai Bufan touched his empty pocket and swallowed.
*Bùháo*, it was a feint to the east and an attack to the west! Luring the tiger away from the mountain! A pack of wolves working together! A bunch of beasts colluding!
"How did my phone get in your hands!"
"Huh? How did it get in my hands? I don't know. Here, you can have it back," Bai Bufan was too lazy to even comment on Zhou Baowei's acting.
Bai Bufan took a deep breath and unlocked his phone.
Good news, there wasn't an extra 200,000 yuan in his phone.
Bad news, the eight projects had already been submitted.
Haha.
"I'll make you pay for this!" Looking at the backs of the two, Bai Bufan roared.
This act of making a choice directly over him had touched Bai Bufan's reverse scale and was absolutely unforgivable.
Being hehe-haha on a daily basis didn't mean he had no bottom line!
"Hehe."
Lin Li and Zhou Baowei were too lazy to even turn their heads.
Bai Bufan took out his phone, turned the beauty filter to the max, added a bunny ear effect, took a picture, and made them pay dearly.
Then he followed them listlessly. Now he could only risk his life to accompany the villains.
After scanning the ticket, he followed the two of them and found a seat on the side—the park gate hadn't opened yet. Passing through the turnstile now was just entering the buffer queuing area.
"Life is like being gang-raped. You either get fucked to death or you get fucked to pleasure," Zhou Baowei looked at the soulless Bai Bufan and comforted him.
"Society is like being gang-raped. You either resist or you enjoy it," Lin Li nodded. This was said to Bai Bufan, but also to himself.
"Although the words are crude, the reasoning is not. But you guys are too crude!" Bai Bufan responded with a middle finger, then looked at the amusement park interior, which was now clearer—the height and curvature of those terrifying projects could also be seen more clearly.
So Bai Bufan sighed deeply, "Why can't you guys just live a stable life?"
"Courage is the praise of humanity. Have you heard of the Ozaki 8? Ozaki Ono said that as long as you pass these eight, humanity can be reborn. And what we are participating in now is the budget version, the Pingjiang 8. As long as you pass, believe me, you will also undergo a qualitative change," Zhou Baowei patted Bai Bufan's shoulder.
"The Ozaki 8? I know. The tempering of fire, the village banquet, the gift from a relative, the packing of leftovers, the remarriage of a wife, the changing of a child's surname, the two meters of grass, the digging of a grave. After it's all over, the quality of a person, including the box, is only five jin. It's indeed a qualitative change," Bai Bufan's smile was pale.
Bai Bufan had already entered the Fei Sect, firmly believing that the only thing in this world that could cause a qualitative change was Feifei from the chicken farm.
The Fei Sect is great, no need to say more.
Besides, what Ozaki 8? It was all backward superstitious dross.
Zhou Baowei: "If there's really a banquet, you must call me. I'll sit at the children's table. I'll pack the cigarettes and alcohol."
Lin Li: "If you really remarry, you must consider me first. You don't need the child."
A passing Wang Ze: "Did I hear 'dig'? Who's digging? It doesn't matter, add me in. Let's dig first!"
Bai Bufan chose to smile.
If Liu Bang saw these three, he would have to shout "Great Chu will win."
Life is like Tao Zhe. Everything has to be solved with your own hands. Bai Bufan thought he must find an opportunity to deal with these three beasts.
"The gate is about to open. Let's go," Zhou Baowei saw a staff member standing next to the isolation belt and pressing the switch of the isolation belt, so he stood up and said to the two.
Lin Li and Bai Bufan stood up very quickly.
"That seems to be the entrance to the Azure Dragon Roller Coaster. Let's run over there directly later. This way, we can play once without using the fast track. When we come down after playing once, it will definitely be crowded, so we can use the fast track to play again! Maximize efficiency," Zhou Baowei said expectantly.
Lin Li and Bai Bufan sat down, one hundred percent quickly.
Zhou Baowei, who found himself alone after walking for a while: "?"
"When you're out to have fun, why be so busy, like a special forces soldier? Leisure is the true meaning of fun," Bai Bufan poured the mineral water onto the bottle cap, blew on it twice like drinking tea, and then slurped it all up.
Zhou Baowei: "..."
"Baowei, have some consideration for Bai Bufan. We only have one Bai Bufan. Don't play him to death," Lin Li said.
Lin Li wasn't as afraid of the Pingjiang 8 as Bai Bufan, but he couldn't enjoy these projects like Zhou Baowei, so torturing him once was enough. Doing it again was redundant.
"Thank you, Lin Li. You're still the best to me," Bai Bufan was really touched.
Lin Li is a good person. I'll give him a quick death when I kill him in the future. Zhou Baowei must be lingchi-ed.
Lin Li smiled warmly.
He should be thanking me.
