See the Law of Deception

Chapter 95 Inheritance (1)

The ticket doesn't reveal much information beyond the platform level.

As for the place name, it is another place that does not exist in reality.

Unable to get any further information, Lu Jinzhao was not in a hurry. She patiently waited until the next day, and then took a taxi to the train station half an hour early.

However, she had not received any news from Lin Lin before entering Yuncheng Railway Station, and there was no new information about the Death Platform on the forum.

It seems the mission is not yet over.

I've heard that missions with only a few hours to complete are less common on high-level platforms, and these time-limited platforms are usually extremely dangerous. Many high-level passengers would rather stay on the platform longer than encounter missions with very short time requirements.

However, there aren't many that take an exceptionally long time. It's 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.

The thought of spending an entire year inside the platform is something Lu Jinchao finds hard to accept.

The taxi arrived outside Yuncheng Railway Station, and Lu Jinzhao paid the fare and walked into the station.

Now she knows this road very well.

She carried a backpack containing some survival necessities, but not much. Based on the forum and her own experience, it was rare for passengers to starve to death on the platform, so there was no need to bring too much food. However, it was best to bring some things to replenish energy, as well as some emergency medicine.

Lu Jinzhao even went to learn how to suture wounds. Of course, it didn't need to be perfect; as long as the wound could be stitched up, it would be considered a success.

She is now quite familiar with what the human body needs to do to survive in various extreme situations.

Stepping onto the platform, Yuncheng Railway Station was still exceptionally bustling, but unfortunately, Lu Jinzhao knew that this bustling atmosphere would soon be irrelevant to her.

Following the familiar route, Lu Jinzhao entered the staircase leading to the underground platform. The moment he stepped inside, he couldn't help but recall the previous platform.

She paused for a moment, then continued walking as if nothing had happened.

She thought that the downside was the large number of platforms she had visited.

Having witnessed so many terrifying scenes, the psychological trauma they leave behind is also increasing.

Stepping into the stairwell, all the lively sounds disappeared, and the temperature around them dropped. Lu Jinzhao looked around but didn't see any other passengers.

There was some traffic on the way, but because we left early, there were still about twenty minutes before the train arrived at the platform.

She walked into the waiting room and, unsurprisingly, saw other passengers inside when she opened the door.

However, she arrived relatively early this time, so there were only two people inside.

Their eyes fell on the waiting information, and when they saw Lu Jinzhao, they simply nodded in acknowledgment.

At this moment, Lu Jinzhao was most curious about the waiting information. In addition, she didn't have much interest in socializing, so she simply gestured and then focused her attention on the waiting information.

[Train class arriving at this station: B]

[Number of passengers on this trip: 5]

[List of personnel: Lu Jinzhao, Fu Xuesheng, Ji Xiangchen, Zhong Sui, Huo Ye]

[This stop: Heritage]

What does it take for an ancient and unique craft to be passed down from ancient times to the present day?

[It requires apprentices to learn the craft, masters to teach it, years of dedicated practice, and a trial to hone one's skills.]

[In a village in Xiaoshan, there lives a master of the traditional art of shadow puppetry. You went to Xiaoshan to study this art, determined to master it. Now, in your third year as apprentices, you have learned all the basic techniques, but the core skill—the secret to bringing the shadow puppets to life—remains unlearned.]

Now, a trial lies before you. Only by completing the tasks assigned by your master and passing the trial can you learn this unique skill, passed down only to one person!

[You secretly swore that you would definitely pass the trial and become the sole successor.] "...Shadow puppetry?"

Lu Jinchao frowned slightly; this was yet another area she was unfamiliar with.

Of course she knew what it was, but by the time she was born, shadow puppetry was no longer a common art form. She only knew that this unique traditional art existed and had seen it on television, but that was about it.

Lu Jinzhao immediately picked up his phone and started searching.

There is actually a lot of information about shadow puppetry online. After all, although this craft is ancient, it is not a top secret. However, Lu Jinzhao also knows that the "shadow puppetry" in the station is definitely different from what she has found at this moment.

But it's good to know at least a little bit.

While she was reviewing the information, two more people arrived at the waiting room one after another, bringing the total number of people from the Class B platform to five.

After reviewing the information, it was almost time to board the bus. Based on Lu Jinzhao's observation, she noticed that although she didn't know the first two people, the two companions who came in alone afterward were clearly not complete strangers to the others.

They had probably met before, or perhaps exchanged ideas on the forum.

This is quite different from a Class C platform, but it's not surprising considering that almost 80% of passengers gather on lower-level platforms.

Soon, while watching the shadow puppet video, Lu Jinzhao heard the roar of a train speeding by.

When she was checking her ticket, she noticed the change in the "life-saving money" on her ticket, which had changed from 2100 to 2600.

Just getting on the bus cost them 500 yuan to save their lives.

If I get off the bus alive, I'll probably get around 1000 yuan!
Is this what a high-class platform looks like?

They're even so generous with the money for buying someone's life.

However, this also shows that high-level platforms are very dangerous, which is why they are so quick to pay.

Once on the bus, the passengers began to talk.

Someone looked directly at Lu Jinzhao and said bluntly, "Is this your first time entering a Class B platform?"

Lu Jinzhao looked somewhat surprised: "Yes, how did you know?"

Upon hearing this, the person asking the question first gave a brief self-introduction: "My name is Zhong Sui, very simple, your name is completely unfamiliar."

“Once you become a Level 2 passenger, you will almost always apply to enter the core forum area.” She explained slowly, “You probably know the review process; it requires your name and your ticket number.”

“Some of the forum administrators can verify the authenticity of your Class II passenger status by your ID number.”

"Once you successfully enter the core area, everything is done under your real name, and your name will appear in the member list."

It turned out to be the case.

"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, the experience gained from lower-level platforms is still applicable here. However, you need to be more careful, more cautious, and more decisive."

From her words and the fact that the other three did not interrupt their conversation, Lu Jinzhao realized something.

Compared to the indifferent atmosphere on lower-level platforms, the atmosphere among passengers seems more harmonious once you step onto a higher-level platform.

　There are still today
