Chapter 13: The Mystery Supermarket
The five of them walked around the alley, and they hadn't walked out for a long time, and Li Cheng looked a little impatient. "It's going to be a long time before I get there, it's almost dizzying me here."
"Soon, the second T-junction in front, turn left, go uphill, turn right and walk for five minutes, and you will arrive at the textile factory." Xiong Liwu said.
Walking to the second intersection, a few people had just turned the corner, and Chen Feng suddenly said behind him: "Wait a minute, something is wrong." ”
"What's wrong?" Li Cheng asked. "Nothing is wrong, huh? It's all broken houses, nothing. ”
Chen Feng took a few steps back and walked out of the intersection, looked at the alley on the left, and pointed with his finger. "What's that?" Looking at Chen Feng's strange behavior, the others took a few steps back together. I saw that in the depths of the alley on the left-hand side, there was an intact shop.
"I remember the place in front of me, it used to be an Internet café." Xiong Liwu said.
"It doesn't matter what the store is, it's important that you look around. All the houses were in ruins, and the buildings were empty. Why is there a good shop here for no apparent reason? Wang Xiaoling was the first to react, and he also felt incredible.
"Let's take a look." Chen Feng walked in the direction of the store. When I walked to the door of the store, I saw a couplet pasted on the left and right sides of the store door, which read, "Walking in the ancient and modern worlds, seeing all things annihilated." The next couplet reads, "Crossing the two worlds of yin and yang, just for a glimmer of life." There was a wooden plaque hanging in the middle of the gate, with black letters written on a red background, "There is a supermarket" Chen Feng smiled, this store is really loud. He pushed open the door in front of him, disapprovingly. What catches the eye is two stone tablets, one red and one black, and the thickness of the stone tablets is about five centimeters. The two steles are each engraved with some text. The words carved on the red stele protrude outward, and the words carved on the black stele are concave inward.
"What's that? I don't know any of them. Li Cheng, who was following Chen Feng, looked at the words on the stone tablet and looked confused.
"This is a small seal, and the red stone tablet says that everything in the world is destined to be obtained. All items in the store are exchanged, not sold. If you do not exchange for yourself, you will bear the consequences. If there is any damage to the item, the consequences will be borne by yourself. Visitors can only exchange one item at a time, and if they want to change again, they will see you again. Chen Feng explained unhurriedly. When his grandfather was alive, he wrote very good calligraphy with a brush, and when he was a child, he was forced to practice calligraphy by his grandfather, although he still didn't have the patience to practice in the end, but he could understand all kinds of fonts in calligraphy.
"And what's written in black?" Wang Xiaoling then asked.
"It's written here, uh... No way. A row of black lines appeared on Chen Feng's forehead.
"What's the matter, what the hell is written?" Li Cheng asked curiously.
"It's written on this, rookie, you're not qualified to watch it now, come back when you're strong." Chen Feng looked at Li Cheng depressedly and said.
"Hahaha" Li Cheng burst into laughter.
Chen Feng rolled his eyes, ignored Li Cheng's ridicule, and walked around the two stone tablets inside. There is an ordinary wooden door behind the stele, and to the right of the wooden door is a square table with a basin and a box on it. The basin is silvery-white, and it is impossible to see what material it is, and the basin is filled with a basin of water, and a line of words is engraved in the center, "A basin of weak water, wash away the sins of both hands." "The box is bronzed, and the material is not recognizable, and there is a fist-sized hole directly above the box. There is also a line of words on the box, "Two sleeves of fresh breeze, in exchange for a glimmer of life." ”
"What do these two sentences mean?" Li Cheng asked.
"One for you to wash your hands, one for you to donate." Chen Feng said with a smile.
"Neurotic, I'm so poor that I'm left with this fat body, and I'll donate money." Li Cheng didn't care about the things on the table, and walked straight to the wooden door. "Let's see what's behind this." As he spoke, Li Cheng raised his hands and pushed towards the wooden door. Suddenly, I saw a ripple of water ripples in the place where Li Cheng's hands touched the wooden door, and Li Cheng was gently shaken open by a soft force. "What's going on? The door pushed me open. Li Cheng said strangely.
Chen Feng looked at the two items on the table, then looked at the wooden door, and suddenly had an idea in his heart. He tucked his hatchet into his waist and put his hands in the silver basin. I saw a faint red liquid flowing out of my fingernails, dipped in water, and disappeared in a blink of an eye. His eyes lit up, and he suddenly felt extremely comfortable. After taking out his hands, he stood in front of the box and hesitated, seemingly reluctantly pulling out a rope from his neck, and there was a jade pendant on the rope. This is a token of love given to him by his wife when she got married, and he heard that his wife said that it was handed down by her mother's ancestors, and he always carried it closely. This is the only token left by his wife, thinking of his daughter, Chen Feng pressed the jade pendant to his chest. "Daughter-in-law, I'm sorry, for the sake of the girl, I can only do this. If I had the slightest solution, I wouldn't have taken it out. I hope you in the Heavenly Spirit will forgive me for doing this. Chen Feng slowly put the jade pendant into the hole in the middle of the box. The box emitted a burst of crimson light, and then a line of small words appeared in front of Chen Feng's eyes, "Exchange value: 100." He pursed his lips and walked towards the wooden door. Pressing the wooden door with both hands, a burst of water ripples appeared, and Chen Feng's hand passed through it. Yes, instead of pushing open the wooden door, he passed through it like a wall-piercing technique. With such a strange phenomenon, the frightened Chen Feng quickly withdrew his hand.
"I'll go, so awesome. Is this door fake? How do you do it? Li Cheng said in surprise.
"Isn't it written? A basin of weak water washes away the sins of both hands. The breeze on both sleeves is exchanged for a glimmer of life. Water is for you to wash away your sins, and whoever dares to say that he has no sins in his life, even if he tramples an ant to death, is killing. The box is for you to put things in order to exchange for certain items. The stele at the door doesn't say that the store only supports barter. So, you have to come up with something of the corresponding value to get in. Chen Feng explained. It doesn't seem to be dangerous, I'll go first. With that, he raised his hand and pressed it towards the wooden door.
There was a ripple of water, and Chen Feng passed through the wooden door and came to the other side of the door. A room of only twenty square meters is presented in front of you, and there is a shelf in the room, just like the shelves in a normal supermarket. Chen Feng smiled bitterly, and it took so much effort to come in, thinking that it would be as dazzling and magnificent as it was written in the novel. It turned out to be so shabby. Chen Feng came to the shelf, there were only 5 items on the shelf, and the corresponding efficacy and exchange value were marked under the items. He looked up at the first item.
"Traveler's backpack. Space Remaining: 10 tiles. Objects with a volume of less than 0.5 cubic meters can be reduced to the size of the palm of your hand and placed in it. It is an indispensable thing for the brave in the early stage. Exchange Value: 80. Chen Feng's eyes lit up. It's a good thing, like a space ring." Chen Feng suppressed the impulse in his heart and continued to look down.
"Traveler's machete. +3 Physical Damage, a steel forged machete with a 10% chance to damage +1 when slashing at a weak spot. Requirements: Strength 10, Agility 7. Exchange Value: 60. "Good knife, much more powerful than my broken axe. If there had been such a good weapon before, what crypt gnomes, what one-eyed toads, it would not be like cutting melons and chopping vegetables. Chen Feng said to himself.
"Mysterious pet eggs. Give it a little blood to hatch, but I don't know what pets will hatch, it's all about character. Exchange Value: 100. "Seeing this, Chen Feng has a black line, this is obviously a pit.
