Chapter 25: Jack, the Beanstalk, and Consciousness (First Recommendation, Please Support Everyone)
Qi Lin was still thinking about how to fool Matteo Ricci to buy more reading glasses when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door of the grain store.
At first, Qi Lin thought that the rats were unwilling to come again, but after taking a look at the window, he immediately relieved himself.
Knocking on the door was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy with flaxen hair and freckles, and a patched coarse linen garment, which would have been shabby even in this medieval city.
This young man, Qi Lin is quite familiar, he has a popular name - Jack, in this world, such a name is basically as old-fashioned as a dog leftover and a second egg, but it is also common in the countryside.
Jack has a solid personality, but sometimes his brain is always lacking, in the past, Qi Lin helped this little guy when he went to the village to collect grain, and then he came into contact with it a few times one after another, and the relationship between the two is quite harmonious, and they can be regarded as friends, so I am a little happy to see this guy at this moment.
"Why are you here for the Chinese New Year?!" opened the door and asked Qi Lin familiarly.
Jack looked at Qi Lin with a puzzled expression, unable to speak for a long time.
Seeing this, Qi Lin also knew that Jack definitely had something, but the door was not the place to speak, so he directly brought Jack into the house.
"What's the matter, what's the matter?!" Qi Lin asked as he poured water for Jack.
"I'm in trouble!"
After a few sips of water, Jack relieved his nerves a little before speaking.
"What trouble can you cause!" Qi Lin looked at Jack, but he really didn't know how much trouble this thin teenager with little courage and wisdom could do.
"I just lost our cow. Jack said in a depressed mood, and then he added: "It can't be said that I lost the cow, but I didn't know what was wrong with my brain at the time, so I exchanged our cow for five beans." ”
Hearing Jack's words, Qi Lin squirted out the water he hadn't swallowed directly, Jack, Niu for Beans, if these terms were taken out separately, it would not make Qi Lin feel the slightest, but when they were all linked, the veins and main clues of an extremely familiar story were presented in front of Qi Lin.
"Jack and the magic bean?!" Looking at the ordinary Jack in front of him, Qi Lin subconsciously muttered.
"How do you know those beans are magic beans? The guy who sold them to me said the same thing, but my mother said they were just the most ordinary beans, and she beat me up. ”
When he said this, Jack already had tears in his eyes, and he said a little worriedly: "Now there is no flour at home, I want to give some flour on credit, I can work for you to repay." ”
"Did you bring those beans with you?" Qi Lin asked curiously.
Jack wiped his tears and said, "Bring it, it's in my pocket, I wanted to throw it away, but then I didn't want to." ”
As he spoke, Jack took out five ordinary-looking beans from his pocket, looking at these five beans, Jack sighed, even if he had one less tendon in his head, but he was not stupid enough to exchange a cow for five beans, his brain was definitely in water at that time.
Qi Lin carefully picked up a bean, pretended not to care and put it on the bronze membership card of the Wanjie Supermarket, and instantly a prompt sound appeared in Qi Lin's consciousness.
"The discovery of four-dimensional creations can be exchanged for the opportunity to extract special goods, and can also be converted into a certain amount of four-dimensional substances and recharged. ”
Easily opening his hand, looking at the beans in his hand, Qi Lin smiled, "Sure enough, these beans are not simple, can they grow magic beans that lead to the sky?
Qi Lin had already consciously asked questions about the Wanjie Supermarket, but he waited for a long time to get an answer from the cold prompt tone of the Wanjie Supermarket.
"For specific questions, please consult the supermarket shopping guide!"
"Where is the supermarket shopping guide, the service you provide is inadequate, I want to complain. Seeing the prompt sound and reacting, Qi Lin suddenly remembered that he had never seen the so-called supermarket shopping guide at all, so he said quickly in his consciousness, after all, since it is called a supermarket, then the complaints of customers should be actively handled.
Hearing Qi Lin's words, the prompt sound fell silent again, and just when Qi Lin thought that the prompt sound would not take care of him anymore, it suddenly had another message coming in.
"The self-inspection was completed, and the reason for the disappearance of the shopping guide was found, and the member had ingested a deadly toxin after loading the supermarket, and the shopping guide directly turned into energy to help the member resist the toxin damage, and then did not directly form a shopping guide after the supermarket opened. ”
Hearing the words of the system, Qi Lin didn't say much, Bilodo, who died of poisoning, was still lying upstairs, Qi Lin always felt that he was lucky not to be poisoned, and it seemed that the supermarket saved his life that time.
"Can you find a solution?" although he was a little grateful in his heart, Qi Lin still asked tentatively.
"The system will automatically absorb the power of consciousness to form a shopping guide, and continue to provide shopping guide services for members. ”
Members can also take the initiative to provide and recommend awareness, and the supermarket will transform this awareness into a member-exclusive shopping guide. ”
"Is there any difference between you absorbing and forming a shopping guide yourself, and me providing a consciousness formation shopping guide?" Qi Lin asked a little puzzled after hearing these words.
The system prompt still answered unhurriedly: "The shopping guide formed by the automatic absorption of the supermarket has no complete mind, only a certain logical judgment ability, and lacks autonomy, and the shopping guide will take the interests of the supermarket as the first cognitive focus." ”
"Members recommend to provide, the supermarket renovation of the shopping guide, will retain the original memory and sanity of the consciousness provided and recommended by the member, strong autonomy, after the supermarket transformation of the consciousness ownership and top authority for the member himself, the supermarket only to provide consciousness needs to exist on the basis of the remuneration to hire consciousness for the supermarket service. ”
After listening to the prompt, Qi Lin already roughly understood the difference between the two, and then a bolt of lightning flashed through his mind. He suddenly remembered something, and took out half a lead heart from his bosom.
"Can this consciousness act as a shopping guide?" Qi Lin asked with some anticipation as he put the lead heart on the member mark.
This time, the prompt sound was silent for a long time, until Qi Lin's impatience was gone, and its emotionless voice said, "Yes!"
"Due to the current lack of consciousness in the lead heart, there is a risk of collapse after becoming a shopping guide, it is recommended that you make up for the relevant incomplete consciousness within one year. After the permission, the chime reminded again.
Qi Lin nodded, he hadn't fully touched the shopping guide yet, so he didn't understand what it meant, but after emptying the lead core, the most critical point was to be able to recharge this half of the lead core as a five-dimensional substance, according to the supermarket, completing the five-dimensional material recharge can greatly improve one's survivability.
"Okay, convert as soon as possible. Qi Lin commanded while holding the half of the lead.
"Wait, it will take five minutes to extract and convert!" the tone said.
