Chapter 7 It's better to be a god

"Auntie, you're gone!"

As soon as Zhou Xiaoya stepped out of the door, Xu Chen couldn't wait to pick up his mobile phone, wanting to see how much the countdown of the task had passed, but he didn't want to, but at a glance, he saw a new hut-like APP in the upper right corner of the treasure chest, with the word "mall" written on it.

"Mall?When did this come about?Why is it always sneaky every update?!"

The system was silent.

Curiously clicking on the mall icon, Xu Chen found that there was a row of simulated shelves inside. But the shelves were empty, and there was not even a single hair.

So, I asked the system suspiciously: "Excuse me, what is the use of the mall, can I buy things?"

The words appeared on the screen, and the accompanying pronunciation sounded: "The host novice task has been completed, and the mall function has been opened." ”

"Ask you east, you answer west, I really convince you. ”

Xu Chen continued to ask: "I'm asking what is the use of the mall, can I buy things, if so, how to buy it, and what are the goods inside?"

System: "This issue exceeds the host's permissions, and the host has no permission to ask, please continue to upgrade." ”

"Well, you'd better have good night!"

Xu Chen resented his own cheap mouth and wasted this precious time in vain. He should have thought that this thing would definitely perfunctory him with this nonsense.

Looking at the time, the countdown showed that there were 70 hours, 3 minutes and 51 seconds left.

After a while, two hours were gone, and Xu Chen couldn't help but feel the urgency of time.

He retrieved the pen and paper again, and left Zhou Xiaoya a farewell letter full of gratitude and deep remorse. After writing, he pressed a water cup to a conspicuous place on the side of the locker, then changed into a hospital gown, sneaked out of the hospital building with his two mobile phones, stopped a taxi at the hospital gate, and quickly fled to the rented place.

Xu Chen's rented house in the south of the city is an old two-bedroom apartment of less than 70 square meters. He shared a house with a young couple surnamed Wang, and each family lived in one room each, sharing a living room and kitchen and bathroom.

Rushing back to the community, Xu Chen went upstairs, took out the key to open the door, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he heard Xiao Wang ask in the house:

"Xu'er, are you back?"

"Hey, Brother Wang, didn't you come out of the stall tonight, shouldn't you be busy in the night market at this point?" Xu Chen wondered.

Xiao Wang and his family rented a stall in the night market and ran a snack business. They don't work during the day, but at night they work from dark to almost dawn. Xiao Wang has a seven-year-old daughter who lives in the countryside with his parents. His parents are not in good health, and there is a disabled eldest brother at home. Although the little couple is very capable, their lives are still tight and hard.

"What, your sister-in-law is not feeling well, her stomach hurts, we came back early tonight. Damn, where have you been going all day? You call you, you turn off your phone, and you don't reply to messages, I don't know if I'm worried about you with your sister-in-law?"

Click, click, click......

There was a commotion in the room, followed by the sound of slippers stomping on the floor.

The door creaked open, and Xiao Wang walked out shirtless wearing a pair of loose floral pants.

"Damn, what's wrong with you?"

When I stepped out of the door, I saw at a glance that Xu Chen's head, which was still good in the morning, was not only shaved semi-bald, but also wore a net pocket, and the bottom was covered with gauze, which was obviously seriously injured.

"Let me take a look!" Xiao Wang hurriedly walked over.

"Tsk, it's not a light injury! I said you kid ran out in the morning and ran out in a mad way, and you just fought with someone again? Didn't you swear that you would never fight with anyone again? You said you, let me say hello?

Come on, come on, I'll see. Oh, it's serious! Why don't you call me back? How many people called? Who the fuck is so ruthless! No...... Haven't you been practicing martial arts since you were a child, why do you let people be like this?

"Hey, it's okay! This little hurt, it's okay to ......."

Xu Chen waved his hand grinningly and said with a smile: "It's not a fight, who the hell dares to beat us, then he doesn't want to catch his breath! Brother Wang, you don't know me, when did I suffer a loss in a war? Hehe, I accidentally stepped on the empty steps and fell down." It's okay, it'll be fine in a few days!"

"It'll be fine in a few days, your heart is really big!"

Xiao Wang glared and said: "On this hot day, after all, the injury is not a place, you must not be infected, and then you will have sequelae." It is time to get an injection, and it is time to take medicine and medicine. I'll get you some money in a moment.

In the afternoon, your sister-in-law instructed me, saying that Xu Chen had lost his mobile phone and electric car in the past few days, and his hand was empty, so let me get you 2,000 yuan first. I look at your situation, two thousand estimates can't be stopped, and now the hospital's medical expenses are expensive. Tomorrow, I'll get you some more. Put it away in advance when looking for a job, let's recuperate first!"

"Brother Wang, I really don't need to, my injury is not as serious as you said. Thank you sister-in-law for me, ah!"

Although he said this, Xu Chen's heart was actually quite moved. Because he knew what these two thousand yuan meant to Xiao Wang's family.

"Xu'er, you said that you are out of this way, it's really unpleasant. Your sister-in-law and I are anxious for you!"

Xiao Wang got up as he spoke, picked up the cold kettle, poured a cup of cold white water for Xu Chen, handed it to him, and sat back on the chair. When he sat down, he leaned back on the chair, threw away his slippers, and stepped on a corner of the chair surface.

Then, holding his knees, he pouted his mouth while picking his feet, and then said, "You say, don't say anything, or why are you unlucky one after another?"

"Say?" Xu Chen was stunned, "What do you say?"

"Hey, if only I had that ability, then I'd already been developed, and I would still be doing this little business with your sister-in-law day and night?"

Xiao Wang stretched out his hand as he spoke, picked up a folding fan from the table, opened it with a snap, and pondered while fanning: "Anyway, I think you are very wrong during this time, how can you be so unlucky? If not, you will go to the west wall of the city tomorrow and find a gentleman to push down the eight characters for you!"

"Sir, why didn't I think of it sooner!"

After being reminded by Xiao Wang, Xu Chen had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and suddenly thought of a good way to complete the task during the probation period.

I couldn't help but be happy in my heart, and secretly said: "Then it's better to be a magic stick! Tomorrow morning, go to the west of the city to take a walk under the root of the big wall, and meet those gentlemen for a while, so that those charlatans can see what a master is and what a living immortal is! Well, it's decided!"

Xiao Wang was sitting in the living room and talking nonsense with Xu Chen across the dining table, and his daughter-in-law Liang Yan heard the movement of the two talking outside the house, and also got up and left the house.

The three of them chatted for more than ten minutes, and when they saw that it was not too early, Xiao Wang asked his daughter-in-law to go back to the house to get the two thousand yuan and hand it to Xu Chen.

Xu Chen couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it temporarily. and told Xiao Wang that he would pay him back in a few days.

Xu Chen's subtext is that I will make a fortune right away, so this money will be able to repay you soon. Of course Xiao Wang didn't know this, he thought that Xu Chen had seen him.

Immediately glared angrily, pointed at Xu Chen's nose and shouted: "I found that you are really boring! Oh, the relationship between our brothers is worth two thousand yuan? Sensei said something else, in the past two years, the favors you usually go to my stall after work to help are worth two thousand.

If I want to be someone else, even if I pay someone else's salary, they don't want to do that dirty work in the middle of the night.

Besides, when my dad had surgery last year, I couldn't scrape together the money for a while, didn't you help me too? Now that you're in trouble, if I don't help you, then I'm still a human being? Okay, don't think about it, take care of your injuries, this is the business!"

Among the three, Liang Yan had an old problem with stomach pain, and Xu Chen's head was injured.

Xiao Wang works in the middle of the night after the second half of the year, and has already developed the habit of staying up late, and unlike the two of them, they are sick and unwell, at this time, there is no sleepiness at all. Although he kept shouting "It's not early, you have to rest early", he was energetic and talking.

That topic, one after another, owed a few times, and then sat back again, and the conversation box couldn't be closed.

Seeing that her husband's old problem had been made again, and he didn't pay attention to it after making a few looks, Liang Yan suddenly glared angrily, and without even saying a word, he directly dragged Xiao Wang's ears and took him away.

Seeing that the two finally returned to the house, Xu Chen also hurriedly ran back to the house, in case Xiao Wang killed him, then he would be miserable tonight.
