Chapter 95: Inheritance
From the train ticket, besides being able to see the platform level, not much other information could be discerned.
As for the place name, it was another place that completely did not exist in reality.
Not getting any extra messages, Lu Jinzhao was not anxious and patiently waited until the next day, when she took a taxi to the train station half an hour early.
However, before she entered Yuncheng Train Station, she still had not received any messages from Lin Lin, and there were no new messages about the death platform on the forum.
It seemed that the mission had not yet ended.
It was said that in high-level platforms, missions with time limits of only a few hours were somewhat rare, and such time-limited platforms were extremely dangerous, with many high-level passengers preferring to stay longer inside the platform rather than encountering those missions with extremely short time requirements.
However, those with exceptionally long times were not common either; it was said that many years ago there was a death platform with a time limit of up to a year, and almost no passengers came out alive from that mission.
Staying inside the platform for a whole year, Lu Jinzhao felt somewhat unable to accept just thinking about it.
The taxi arrived outside Yuncheng Train Station, and Lu Jinzhao paid the fare before heading inside the station.
She was already quite familiar with this route now.
She carried a backpack with some survival essentials inside, but not too many, because according to the forum and her own experience, direct ways of killing passengers like “starving to death” rarely appeared inside the platform, so there was no need to bring too much food, but it was best to bring some stamina supplements, as well as some emergency medicines.
Lu Jinzhao had also specially gone to learn wound suturing, of course, it did not need to be done very well, as long as the wound could be stitched up, it counted as success.
Now she was quite familiar with what needed to be done to survive in various extreme situations for the human body.
Walking into the platform, Yuncheng Train Station was still exceptionally lively, but unfortunately, Lu Jinzhao knew that this liveliness would soon have nothing to do with her.
Following the familiar route down the stairs to the underground platform, the instant she entered, Lu Jinzhao inevitably recalled the previous platform.
Her footsteps paused for a moment, then she stepped down as if nothing had happened.
She thought that as the number of experienced platforms increased, this was the downside.
Having seen too many terror scenes, the psychological shadows left behind also increased accordingly.
Stepping into the stairwell, all the lively sounds melted away, and the temperature around her also dropped; Lu Jinzhao looked around but did not see the figures of other passengers.
There was some traffic on the road, but because she had set off early, there were still about twenty minutes until the train arrived at the platform.
She walked to the waiting room, and when she pushed open the door, she was not surprised to see the figures of other passengers inside.
However, this time she had not come late, so there were only two people inside.
Their gazes were on the waiting information, and upon seeing Lu Jinzhao, they just nodded in greeting.
Lu Jinzhao was also most curious about the waiting information at this moment, and coupled with her lack of interest in socializing, she simply nodded in response and then turned her gaze to the waiting information.
【This arrival train level: B】
【This ride personnel: Five】
【Personnel list: Lu Jinzhao, Fu Xuesheng, Ji Xiangchen, Zhong Sui, Huo Ye】
【This station: Inheritance】
【An ancient and unique craft, passed down from ancient times to today, what does it need?】
【It needs disciples to cultivate the craft, masters to teach the skill, long years of practice, and also. a trial to temper the muscles and bones.】
【In Xiao Shan village, there is an inheritor of the traditional craft shadow puppetry. You head to Xiao Shan to cultivate shadow puppet art, determined to learn this craft. Now, it is the third year of your cultivation as disciples; you have learned all basic skills, but the core technique. the secret technique to make shadow puppets “come alive,” you have yet to learn.】
【Now, a trial lies before you. As long as you complete the mission assigned by the master and pass the trial, you can learn this unique secret technique passed down to only one person!】
【You secretly swear to successfully clear the trial and become that sole successor.】
“.Shadow puppetry?”
Lu Jinzhao frowned slightly; this was another field she did not know.
Of course she knew what it was, but by the time she was born, shadow puppetry was no longer very common; she only knew it was a unique traditional art and had seen it on television, but knew little more.
Lu Jinzhao immediately took out her mobile phone to search.
There was actually quite a lot of information about shadow puppetry online; after all, though this craft was ancient, it was not some top secret. However, Lu Jinzhao also knew in her heart that the “shadow puppetry” inside the platform was definitely completely different from what she was searching for now.
But it was still good to understand a little more.
During the time she was looking up information, two more people arrived one after another in the waiting room; at this point, all five people for this Class B Platform were present.
After checking the information, the time was approaching boarding. According to Lu Jinzhao’s observation, she found that although the first two were unclear, the two companions who entered separately afterward were clearly not completely strangers to the others.
They had probably met before, or perhaps exchanged messages on the forum.
This was completely different from Class C Platforms, but considering that nearly 80% of passengers gathered in low-level platforms, it was not strange.
Soon, while watching shadow puppet videos, Lu Jinzhao heard the roar of the train speeding in.
During ticket inspection, she noticed the change in life-buying money on the train ticket, from 2100 to 2600.
Just for boarding, it gave 500 life-buying money.
If she could get off alive, the money she could get was estimated to be around 1000!
Was this a high-level platform?
Even the life-buying money was given so generously.
However, this also indirectly showed that high-level platforms were very dangerous, which was why the money was given so readily.
Once on the train, the passengers finally began to talk.
Someone looked directly at Lu Jinzhao and said straightforwardly, “Is this your first time entering a Class B Platform?”
Lu Jinzhao showed a somewhat surprised appearance: “Yes, may I ask how you knew.?”
The person who asked first gave a simple self-introduction: “My name is Zhong Sui. It’s very simple; your name is a completely unfamiliar name.”
“As long as one becomes a second-class passenger, they will almost always apply to enter the core forum area.” She explained slowly: “The review process, you probably know, requires your name and your train ticket number.”
“Among the forum administrators, someone can verify the authenticity of your second-class passenger identity through the number.”
“After successfully entering the core area, it’s all real-name system inside, and your name will appear in the member list.”
So that’s how it was.
“It seems there aren’t many people in the core area?”
Zhong Sui nodded: “Indeed not many.”
“This is your first time entering a Class B Platform, but don’t be too nervous. Although Class B is a high-level platform, experience from low-level platforms is still applicable here, but you need to be more careful, more cautious, and more decisive.”
From her words, and the attitude of the other three who did not interrupt their conversation at all, Lu Jinzhao sensed one thing.
Compared to the self-centered indifference of low-level platforms, after stepping into high-level platforms, the atmosphere among passengers seemed more harmonious?
Today there is still
