Chapter 1 The Origin of Origins
There is a grocery store in Xihua Town, located in the quiet southeast corner of the town, where few people will pass by, the population is quiet, but it has a very magical magic, attracting people to enter, and people who enter there will get one thing, it is called Dongya Grocery Store.

Outside the storefront, there is a wooden sign with the word "Dongyaw", which is covered with dust, and when you look inside from the window, it is pitch black, and you can't see everything inside, mysterious and weird, like a haunted house that has been abandoned for a long time.
Outside the house were some almost withered ancient weeds, this plant was extremely vigorous, but at this time they were languishing, and before the season withered, they were so lifeless, like this shop, with a lifeless breath.
There is nothing like nothing, like a black fog hanging above, which shows the meaning of cold business.
The sound of a dilapidated wind chime with a bell falling from the corner of the door broke the silence of the store.
At this time, it is already dusk, and if it is a business, it is already off work, but there is still no trace of enthusiasm in the store, let alone the intention of closing.
"Excuse me, is anyone there?" a slender little hand pushed the door as if tempted, and a slender woman with a peach-faceted face appeared at the door, her white dress standing out in front of a pile of miscellaneous items in the room.
She asked cautiously, but her footsteps were drawn cautiously to the long-damaged wooden table standing in the center.
There was silence, no one responded.
As she walked to the door of this strange shop, the woman wondered how she had gotten here, and why she had a familiar feeling, that she had been here, and that she had already held the doorknob when she came back to her senses, and that she had followed her consciousness into the place.
"Bang!" the heartstrings were beating hard, and when he looked back, the door that had not been closed before had closed heavily with the wind.
This suddenly turned the room, which had been somewhat light, back into darkness, and likewise, separated her from the outside. The frightened woman stood tremblingly, the uneasiness in her heart became more and more intense, and she was about to turn around and go to the door, when a voice stopped her movements.
She still stood still, her eyes looking for the source of the sound, and slowly, a faint light came to her side, and her gaze finally adjusted to the light.
"Sorry to keep you waiting. What caught his ears was a cold voice, and his tone was natural and relaxed, without any self-blame that made people wait for a long time.
Outside the window, the sun was setting, the figure appeared, and the light was approaching, which turned out to be an oil lamp.
The first time they met, she saw that he was dressed in a gray Chinese-style coat, a little messy black hair, brown eyes, a black round mirror on the bridge of his nose, a kind smile on the corner of his mouth, his eyebrows were picturesque, and his color turned bright. Standing there straight, towering like a pine isolated in it, Xuan Xuan like a morning glow, surrounded by a cold place, almost not like a person in the world.
Then, he said kindly: "Welcome to the East Crow Grocery Store, where you can find everything you want." ”
His eyes stared straight at each other, without a trace of the shrewd eyes that a businessman should have, there was nothing wrong with it, there was no superfluous look on his face, he just smiled like that.
The woman was startled by him coming out of nowhere, and tried her best to calm her uneasiness and panic, and said what was in her heart.
"I'm sorry, I was walking on the road and somehow got here. Seeing that the man had been looking at him with a smile, and the man in front of him was very good-looking, he paused and replied with a shy face,
"I didn't know it was a store, and I didn't need anything as you said. I think it's time for me to go!So, sorry to bother. ”
He bent down politely, and after speaking, he was ready to raise his feet and turn to leave, thinking about leaving. Because she always felt that this man was too mysterious, and she didn't understand what he was, and his calm demeanor always gave her some oppression. There is nothing wrong with staying away from him.
Before he could take a few steps, a breezy voice came from behind him again, and he asked firmly and easily, "Are you sure you don't have anything you want." ”
I think I know that she has scruples in her heart, but the confidence on the corner of her mouth seems to explain everything.
She stopped, but in her heart she seriously thought about why she felt that this was so familiar, and in her dreams, there had been the same conversation.
The woman frowned slightly, but still asked suspiciously, "Really... What I want, I have it here." ”
"As long as I have what I have here, exactly what you want, then I have it here. He replied with the same faint smile, looking at her earnestly, without blinking.
"Boss, then what is your name" As soon as the words came out, the woman was very annoyed, why did she ask something different from what she thought in her head, clutching her bag tightly, she seemed to be a little nervous and curious.
"No, it's my name. Still looking at her and talking seriously.
"Why is it called that?" she asked.
"All ages begin with nothing and end with nothing. But I have it in my shop, and I'm here myself, so naturally I'm nothing!" he replied.
"So you know what I want?!" she smiled contemptuously, as if mocking what he said, contradicting himself and making no sense of logic. Suddenly, I wondered what else the man was making up to make up nonsense. Obviously, she felt that what the other party said was nonsensical.
"Of course, the people who come to my store, I know what they want. At that time, the moment he finished speaking, the woman also met his gaze, the calm and deep in his eyes, as if he had seen through his unbelief, but he was still full of smiles.
At this time, she had a feeling that the man in front of her was not a powerful person she could figure out, but he had already seen himself through.
"What do I want?" she asked again, this time she meant it.
"Of course, I won't tell you directly, the rule of the store is that every day I will give a customer who comes here, I will give him something he wants, and if I don't give what you really want, then you will come to the store every day to get something. He said patiently.
After a moment of silence, he slowly spat out the following sentence, "Until you get what you "really" want. ”
"Is there anything good in the world, do you think I'll believe the gibberish of your mouth?" she laughed disdainfully.
"Believe it or not, from the first words you started with me, you believed it from the heart. He didn't care if the other party believed it, after all, the people who could enter this store were destined in the dark.
He didn't pay attention to the woman's laughter, lowered his eyes, looked to the lower right, and lazily picked the ears of a big white cat on the table, as if deliberately reminding her, faintly speaking,
"Because, nothing is impossible in the world, and you have been guided. ”
"... The woman followed his gaze as well, her eyes flashing with surprise.
The cat hadn't just appeared, and in the conversation between the two, when did it appear there, and it didn't make a sound. If she remembered correctly, she did follow it to this alley, and it was really destined. But in the next second, she shattered the idea again.
Because she thought everything was too weird, the man, the shop, and the cat.
What kind of guidance, I'm afraid someone is doing something wrong!
"So, what do you want. The man was also waiting for her reaction, and after teasing the cat for a while, he looked directly into the woman's eyes again and asked gently.
The woman thought it was too strange, and of course she was curious, and she wanted to know what the hell was going on. Casually glanced around the room, less than 20 square meters, there were things piled up everywhere, too dark to see what they were.
Then there is the bookshelf in the room, except for the broken table, which is neatly filled with books, but it is only limited to a distance, and it is estimated that it is a mess when you get closer. There is also one of the cleanest rattan chairs in the room. If he says there's all they want, then that garbage is what the so-called "stuff" is.
She scoffed, ridiculous, she really believed his nonsense, subconsciously justified herself, she must have been attracted by beauty, and then she couldn't help but want to tease the man in front of her.
Finally made up his mind, with a bright smile, raised his chin, squinted his eyes, and seemed to be very proud to say,
"Okay, please ask the owner to give me a burger. ”
Be quiet.
The man didn't show a very surprised look, he always looked faint, but for a second his eyes flashed with disappointment, and he subconsciously shook his head,
"You're sure it's what you want. ”
"I'm sure. She replied firmly, but the smile in the corner of her eyes revealed her true thoughts, indeed, she was trying to tease him.
"Well, wait a minute. He knew that these guests would not believe it, so naturally he would not be annoyed, and he was still very obedient to give them what they wanted.
The woman obviously didn't believe it, when the person who looked like a fairy turned around indifferently, walked to the microwave oven less than a few steps away, looked over, and couldn't see anything in the dark, and now she was a little afraid, such a dirty place, will the food expire, so do you want it or not.
It didn't take long for the man to come over with a plate in his hand, there was really such a burger in it, it was still a certain FC grill burger, even if it was a lie, don't be so real!
"It's what you want today. He said.
"Why say today. Puzzled, although the most puzzled was this hamburger, but looking at the steaming and delicious aroma of the guy, he put aside the doubt and blurted out another question.
"Because, you'll be back tomorrow. His eyes stared at her faintly, and finally he narrowed his eyes and replied in a deep voice,
"Boss, you are so deceitful, no wonder there is no one here, what you need to do when you open a store is reputation, you can't do business like this. Besides, I live 10 kilometers away from here, so I happened to run errands today. So I won't be here tomorrow. She chuckled in her heart, and some uneasiness came out of her heart, but she still said it arrogantly.
"My name is None. He focused on the salutation, she would come back in the next few days, he suddenly looked at her with a solemn look in his eyes, and frowned slightly.
"Forget it, I'm not going to waste time with you. She pursed her lips helplessly, and didn't notice the man's expression, so she took out 20 yuan from her bag, threw it heavily on the clean and moth-eaten table, and said loudly,
"It's the money for the burger, and that's when I bought you a burger here. So, never again!" this time the real foot kept opening the door and leaving.
"You will come again. Her deep eyes lit up the moment she opened the door, until the door was slammed shut again, and her eyes were glowing with a hint of inky blue, and she said firmly to the figure who walked away.
"Meow" The big white cat raised its head lazily, and then fell back into sleep. No one seems to have ever disturbed the silence of the land.
As soon as the woman went out, she walked to the nearest trash can, threw away the burger she had taken from the store, pouted, pretended to be impatient, and said irritably,
"If you break the wealth and eliminate the disaster, you should spend money to buy today's misfortune. I don't know if it's poisoned or something, it's expired if it's not poisonous, it's not that I don't eat you, it's just that you're too suspicious. So, stay inside!" clapped his hands and walked away without looking back.
