Bai Xiaofei, male, 24 years old.
Born in HS City, Beihé Province, Huaxia Country, he currently works at a film and television equipment company.
Two days ago, he was cruelly dumped by his girlfriend, a high-achieving student from a prestigious film academy, turning him from an ordinary loser to an older loser!
"Ma Huateng!"
Bai Xiaofei, who had gained nothing, slammed the keyboard hard, his face turning green with anger!
When a person is down on their luck, even drinking water can get stuck in their teeth!
Indeed, two days ago he was dumped by his girlfriend, yesterday he lost his wallet, and today, while playing DNF, he cleared 50 floors of the Abyss but didn't even get a single piece of epic gear, let alone a single dog eye. It was simply infuriating!
"Xiaofei, are you still playing? It's almost 1 PM. Let's go eat, I'll treat you to ramen today!" his colleague, Chen Bing, walked over and patted Bai Xiaofei on the shoulder.
"You go ahead, to the usual place. I just have a bit of fatigue left, I'll do one last run!"
Bai Xiaofei shook his head, staring at the fatigue value on the screen, his eyes red. He didn't believe that with this last bit of fatigue, if he couldn't get anything, he would decisively delete his account and quit the game!
"Alright, I'll go ahead and save a spot. Come over quickly!"
After Chen Bing left, Bai Xiaofei was alone in the room, battling the Abyss monsters.
Ding!
Bai Xiaofei controlled the game character, the Demon King, with various flashy movements, making the hell-level Abyss monsters spin around, gradually wearing them down. The phone next to the keyboard suddenly buzzed.
Bai Xiaofei ignored it and continued fighting the monster.
Ding ding ding...
Unexpectedly, the phone kept buzzing nonstop.
"Damn!"
After finally killing the monster, still without any drops, Bai Xiaofei was so angry he almost smashed the keyboard.
He decided to delete his account, exit the game, and shut down the computer!
Ding ding ding...
The phone continued to buzz, and Bai Xiaofei, annoyed, grabbed it to take a look.
On the dark screen of the iPhone 6 Plus, there were numerous WeChat Moments notifications.
The first message: Supreme Ruler of Space and Time invites you to join the Great Path Chat Group.
Then:
Supreme Ruler of Space and Time invites Qingfeng Daoist to join the Great Path Chat Group, Supreme Ruler of Space and Time invites Lieryang Lord to join the Great Path Chat Group, Supreme Ruler of Space and Time invites Aogu Supreme Ruler to join the Great Path Chat Group...
The dense notifications covered the entire chat window.
"What the hell?"
Bai Xiaofei was stunned and was about to leave the strange chat group to go eat with Chen Bing.
Suddenly, the phone vibrated, and someone sent a message.
Supreme Ruler of Space and Time: Fellow Daoists, this Supreme Ruler has exhausted countless natural treasures, using the boundless power of space and time, and spent countless years to successfully establish this Great Path Chat Group. From now on, we will all advance together... (followed by three clasped hands emojis)
Qingfeng Daoist: Truly worthy of being the Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, your strength is amazing, to be able to break through space and time and connect us. I am in awe! (followed by a thumbs-up emoji)
Lieryang Lord: Same here! (followed by three worship emojis)
Aogu Supreme Ruler: Fellow Daoist of Space and Time, you have worked hard! (clasped hands emoji)
Bai Xue Fairy: Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, please take care of me! (three kiss emojis)
Ice King: @Bai Xue Fairy, my dear wife, can you not be so infatuated and greedy? (a series of sad emojis)
An ID named "Silver Wolf King" couldn't stand it anymore and jumped in: Hey, you two, enough! This is the Great Path Chat Group, not a couple's love group! (a series of angry emojis)
Bai Xue Fairy: Single dogs, you're just jealous! (three angry emojis)
Ice King: Exactly! And you're the leader of the single dogs! (a series of contemptuous emojis)
The Silver Wolf King's subordinates immediately got angry: You dare to disrespect our Wolf King? Are you looking for a fight? (numerous bloody daggers or bloody cleavers emojis)
Bai Xue Fairy: If you have the guts, bite me! (three disdainful emojis)
Ice King: Don't worry, my love, I'll protect you! A bunch of single dogs, come and fight if you dare! (a series of mocking emojis)
The Silver Wolf King, the leader of the single dogs, led a group of single dogs into a fierce battle with Bai Xue and Ice King in the group.
Qingfeng Daoist quietly sent a nose-picking emoji, indicating he was watching the show.
Nose-picking!
Nose-picking +1!
Nose-picking +2!
Nose-picking +N!
Then, a series of various titled Venerables, Supreme Rulers, Saints, and Controllers all jumped in, starting to spam the chat.
"Damn! It's a group of clowns!"
Seeing the screen filled with clownish messages, Bai Xiaofei was instantly confused and was about to leave the group to save his phone's data, but another message popped up.
Supreme Ruler of Space and Time: Everyone, stop fooling around. To celebrate the establishment of the Great Path Chat Group, this Supreme Ruler will send out red packets.
Qingfeng Daoist: Hahaha! Waiting for the red packets!
Lieryang Lord: Same here!
Bai Xue Fairy: Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, I love you! (three kiss emojis)
Ice King: Wife, be low-key. Supreme Ruler, for the sake of the red packets, I won't hold it against you for trying to seduce my wife. Send the red packets quickly!
Then, various clownish Venerables and Supreme Rulers started to rapidly appear and spam emojis.
Red packets!
Bai Xiaofei was instantly excited, and the desire to leave the group vanished. He prepared his hands to grab the red packets!
Whether it's a group of clowns or a group of something else, as long as it's a group that sends red packets, it's a good group!
Ding!
The phone vibrated, and a large red packet appeared on the screen.
I grab!
Bai Xiaofei's finger shot out like lightning...
Too slow, the red packets were all grabbed!
Looking at the notification on the screen, Bai Xiaofei sighed in disappointment and then casually clicked on "See everyone's luck."
The best luck was Aogu Supreme Ruler, who had been lurking, and grabbed 3,000 units of the power of the world; followed by Lieryang Lord, who grabbed 1,100 units; the others only got a small fraction.
Twenty lucky winners shared 5,000 units of the power of the world from the Supreme Ruler of Space and Time.
Seeing the red packet information, Bai Xiaofei was puzzled: "What is the power of the world? Red packets can do this besides sending money?"
At this moment, the Great Path Chat Group became lively.
Aogu Supreme Ruler: Thank you, Fellow Daoist of Space and Time! (clasped hands emoji)
Lightning Controller: Truly worthy of being Aogu Supreme Ruler, your luck is indeed strong. We are in awe! (an admiring expression)
Lord of Light: I was busy disciplining some disobedient angels and didn't grab the red packet. Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, please send another one! (a pitiful expression)
Xianjun of Wasteland: Exactly, I was busy chatting with girls and missed the red packet. Send another one!
Qingfeng Daoist: Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, you are a great being, with countless units of the power of the world. Why only send 5,000? Too stingy! Keep sending red packets, or you'll lose face! (a sinister expression)
Bai Xue Fairy: Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, wuwuwu, I didn't get anything, please comfort me, please send red packets! (crying and pitiful expressions)
Ice King: ..., Supreme Ruler, send another one, or I won't let you off! (a threatening expression)
Other Venerables: Please send red packets!
Please send red packets!
Please send red packets +1!
Please send red packets +2!
Please send red packets +N!
The group went crazy, tagging the Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, with messages flooding in, including pitiful, cute, threatening, and sympathetic expressions, all kinds of nonsense, just for a red packet, losing all dignity!
Suddenly, the Supreme Ruler of Space and Time finally spoke: Sweat, I can't refuse your enthusiasm. I'll send two more 50-person red packets, just two, whoever grabs them, they're yours!
There are still red packets!
Bai Xiaofei, who was about to leave WeChat to go eat, was instantly excited.
Ding!
The phone vibrated, and a red light flashed on the screen. The Supreme Ruler of Space and Time sent red packets again.
I grab!
Bai Xiaofei was startled and quickly reached out to grab.
Too slow, the red packets were all grabbed.
Looking at the red packet notification on the screen, Bai Xiaofei was shocked. Fifty red packets were instantly grabbed, and he didn't get any.
Damn!
What kind of speed do you have?
You must have used a red packet bot, this is too brutal!
I've never lost in any red packet group, but today I lost to a group of clowns!
Damn!
No girlfriend, lost my money, deleted my game account, and even lost at grabbing red packets. I don't believe it!
There's still one more!
Bai Xiaofei's eyes turned red, like an angry bull, staring intently at the phone screen, ready to grab.
Aogu Supreme Ruler: Haha, I'm first again! Hmm? This time it's not the power of the world, but the power of space and time? Nice, nice! Thank you, Fellow Daoist! (clasped hands emoji)
Bai Xue Fairy: Ah ah ah! Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, I love you, I also grabbed it, second place, yeah! (dancing and kissing emojis)
Ice King: Wife, I didn't get it, please comfort me! (crying emoji)
Bai Xue Fairy: Don't cry, my love, there's still one more, be ready! (petting head emoji)
Qingfeng Daoist: Didn't get it again! Wait for the next one!
Xianjun of Wasteland: This is the last one, I must get it!
Lieryang Lord: Come on! I'm already thirsty and hungry! Let the red packets come more fiercely!
Silver Wolf King: Good wolves, be alert, we must grab this last red packet, and the one who grabs it will be heavily rewarded by me!
... and so on ...
A group of clownish Venerables started spamming emojis again.
Bai Xiaofei ignored them, quietly waiting for the red packet.
Ding!
Suddenly, the phone vibrated.
Bai Xiaofei widened his eyes, ready to grab, but found that it wasn't a red packet, but a short message from Chen Bing: "The ramen is ready, come down and eat quickly!"
Bai Xiaofei ignored the message, focused on grabbing the red packet, and decided to eat after grabbing the last one.
Ding!
A large red packet appeared on the screen, the last one.
I grab!
Bai Xiaofei extended his finger and stabbed it like lightning.
A flash of light!
Congratulations, you have grabbed the red packet from the Supreme Ruler of Space and Time, obtaining a top-tier Time Travel Device, which has been stored in your phone and can be extracted and used.
