Chapter 21: The Spoon

The time of waiting is always very painful, especially when waiting for something that does not know when it will appear, and the time passes more and more slowly.

This grocery store with random business hours really made Ye Ming wait, he was originally a very patient person, but when the scorching sun slowly slipped from the west, the afterglow of the setting sun stained the clouds on the horizon, and the burning sunset was crimson, when this grocery store was still closed, Ye Ming's patience was worn out by half.

The sky gradually darkened, the clouds opened and the moon was bright, the bright moonlight was like frost, the brilliant starry sky was like a painting, the clusters of demon fires in Demon Fire Town were swaying left and right in the night wind, and the pedestrians who came and went changed batch after batch, only Ye Ming still stopped at the door of the grocery store, like a lonely watchman.

"Isn't it? So unlucky? Still not open? "At ten o'clock in the evening, it was almost eleven o'clock, and by that time, Ye Ming was already impatient. He turned around and was about to walk away when there was a "squeak" of the door opening.

He turned his head sharply, and saw the two dilapidated wooden doors slowly open, and a hand reached out from inside, pushed the door open, and hung a sign on the door: Open.

"The emperor lives up to his wishes." Ye Ming let out a long sigh, raised his feet and walked towards the grocery store.

Ye Ming had never come in this grocery store, the lights inside were dim, the area was not large, and the air was filled with the smell of old things hoarded for a long time. The décor of the grocery store is very old-fashioned, classical, with a large counter and two huge wooden shelves on the left and right sides of which are filled with many different things.

On the inside of the shop hangs an old pendulum clock, and the time is 10:50.

"See for yourself what you want to buy." The owner of the shop was a thin old man, wearing a long-dated black leather coat and a round hat. Although the old man was in good spirits, his waist was straight, and when he saw someone coming in, he only glanced at it, and then took a rag to clean the dust from the objects in the store.

"Boss, I have something, please help me take a look." Ye Ming waited for a day, he didn't want to be verbose at all, and went straight to the point.

"There is a fee for the valuation evaluation." The boss said.

"Yes." Ye Ming said.

"You sit down first, I'm not done here." The old man did not stop his work, meticulously wiping a vase in his hand.

Ye Ming pulled a chair and sat down, I don't know if he was too heavy or the chair was not strong, after sitting down, the chair swayed and made a grinding sound, Ye Ming was really worried that the broken chair would be a pile of sawdust.

The old man was busy, and Ye Ming looked at the items in the grocery store.

Most of them are common furniture, and there are also some accessories, but they are all old. On the lower level of the wooden shelves on the left side are some books, wrapped in velvet paper, and the cover is not clear.

Because the store is not big, after a few glances, it is almost the same, this is just an ordinary grocery store, at least for now, Ye Ming has not found anything unique.

In addition to the fact that the business hours are very casual.

"Something, show it to me." Five minutes later, the old man was done. He walked over to the counter and pulled out a pair of glasses and put them on.

"This character card." Ye Ming handed the dark gold card to the old man.

Taking the card, the old man looked at it for a while, his face was expressionless, but he glanced at Ye Ming with a strange gaze, and at the same time touched his gray beard.

"Where did it come from?" The old man asked.

"This ...... Can I not answer? Ye Ming said.

"Of course, just asking. This character card is sealed by a force, and its surface flows with an invisible barrier that cannot be broken, and if you want to use it, you have to break through the layer barrier. The old man said.

"How do you break it?" Ye Ming asked.

"How to break? It depends on what you pay. The old man's eyes narrowed, revealing a shrewd look.

"Just say a number, just don't ask for too much price." Ye Ming knocked on the counter twice and smiled.

"We do business and pay attention to integrity, since I open a store, I will not cheat people. What I want is nowhere near worth the value of this card, you just need to get me a spoon. The old man handed the card back to Ye Ming.

"Spoons? What tablespoon? Ye Ming didn't understand.

"A spoon like this, there are a lot of spoons like this, but you remember, this spoon I want, it has a petal mark on the tail, you can see clearly." The old man pulled out a drawing from the counter with a spoon drawn on it.

The drawing was drawn with a pencil, and it was impossible to tell what kind of spoon it was, but it was very ordinary, just a spoon used to hold soup.

"Can you remind me where to get this spoon?" Ye Ming asked.

"If I knew, I'd have gotten it myself. When did you find this spoon, when did you come to me? The old man said.

"Okay. By the way, what if you don't open the door when I'm looking for you? I can't wait another day, can I? "Ye Ming is really not so idle.

"You waited a day today? Hey, the young man has a lot of perseverance. Next time, knock on the door directly, I see that it is you, and I will open it for you. The old man smiled.

"Then wait for my good news, give me this drawing." Ye Ming pointed to the drawings in the old man's hand.

"Take it, go boy." The old man handed the drawing of the spoon to Ye Ming.

"Goodbye."

Ye Ming took the drawings and left Demon Fire Town.

Back at his home in Naiah, Ye Ming turned on the information meter for the first time, and then scanned the spoon on this drawing with the information meter, if there was anything similar to this spoon, then it could be searched.

The search time was only a few seconds, and a large number of spoons that were almost identical to the spoons on this drawing appeared on the information instrument, Ye Ming looked at them one by one, and he was dazzled, but he didn't find them.

Because these spoons on the information meter are the kitchen utensils used to serve soup in the kitchen, there is no unique petal mark on the tail at all.

"Not in the whole Naughty Bay market? So where do I get this thing? If it is a dungeon drop, there should be something on the market, isn't it something produced by a dungeon? Ye Ming stared at the drawing, without a clue.

"Bang!" Just as Ye Ming was taking the drawings and looking at them carefully, suddenly there was a deafening loud noise outside the window! It's like the sound of something massive hitting a building.

The huge sound shook the glass continuously, Ye Ming put away the drawings, and immediately ran to the window to poke his head out.

"Here, Wild Boss!"

In the middle of Tonggu Street, a large boss about 30 meters tall suddenly arrived! This boss is a humanoid monster, huge and explosive muscles, shirtless, with many skull charms on its body, and two black giant axes, which are recklessly ramming into the deserted Tonggu Street!

A heart-palpitating roar came out of the boss's mouth, and the two sharp fangs on the side of his mouth were full of murderous intent, and his hideous expression erupted with a terrifying anger!
