Chapter 27: Rain of Paper Money in the Dead of Night
On the other side, after Chen Ke walked far away, it was difficult to calm down in his heart.
"That person ......"
His face changed.
Walking to a puddle of accumulated rain, he bowed his head slightly and looked at his own reflection in the water.
The reflection in the water, his own appearance, is the same as in his previous life.
Even his own age is the same as in his previous life.
He had discovered this before, and he didn't think much about it at the time, thinking it was just a coincidence.
But......
"That man...... Is it the one I know? β
It was difficult for him to calm down, and he didn't know what to think for a while.
"Am I not the only one who has come into this world?"
Chen Ke's mood was a little complicated, because if it was really someone else who also came to this world......
On the one hand, he longs to see acquaintances, after all, it is too lonely to be alone in this world.
But on the other hand, he didn't want to meet other people.
Perhaps influenced by the novels of his previous life, he knew that many time-travelers would probably think that they were the center of the world, the protagonist of the times, and liked all kinds of waves.
That way, if you're not careful, you'll get him involved.
And he just wants to cultivate in seclusion in peace, and he doesn't want to get involved with those people.
"I think too much, after all, this world is so big, it's not impossible to have some people who look exactly like the people in the previous life."
Suppressing the chaotic thoughts in his heart, he continued to walk.
"It just so happens that I got a lot of money this time, so I went to buy some useful for cultivation, and I will improve my strength first."
After a short time, Chen Ke came to Tongbao Pavilion.
He first bought the steel knife he had bought before, and the half-price was one and a half gold coins, that is, one gold coin and fifty silver coins.
"Do you have anything here that would help you cultivate?" Selling knives, he asked the clerk.
"Of course there is, the Gathering Elixir."
The clerk introduced: "The Gathering Spirit Pill has a very good effect on the last three streams, even for the acquired martial artists, it has a certain effect. β
"How do you sell it?" Chen Ke asked.
"Ten gold coins a bottle."
"How many in a bottle?"
"Ten."
ββ¦β¦ That is, it is equivalent to a gold coin? Chen Ke frowned secretly, it was so expensive.
However, in order to become stronger quickly, he still gritted his teeth and bought a bottle, intending to try the effect first.
Anyway, I have more than sixty gold coins now, so I can spend money boldly.
After buying the elixir, Chen Ke asked the clerk again: "Are there any books on herb identification, pharmacology and basic medicine?" β
The clerk raised his eyebrows slightly: "Yes." β
He brought three books.
Chen Ke looked through it and found that one of them was the one on his body, and the other two were the ones he had never seen.
So he bought the remaining two copies, and spent two gold coins, which was not cheap.
In the end, he spent two more gold coins to buy a special pickaxe and a broadbladed axe to chop trees.
The pickaxe and axe seem to have been rushed out only a few days ago, and they are still very new, presumably to be sold to the engineering team.
Before leaving, Chen Ke seemed to think of something, and tried to ask, "Is there a building cornerstone?" β
The clerk was stunned for a moment, and then shook his head: "That kind of thing only has branches in the tribe, and it is not sold here." β
Is there really such a thing for sale?
Chen Ke's eyes flashed, and he asked again, "Can you ask about the price?" β
"One gold coin." The clerk did not refuse to answer.
Chen Ke nodded, and asked again, "Is the Eternal Fire sold?" β
"It also needs a branch in the tribe to sell, and the Eternal Flame costs ten gold coins." The clerk replied.
Chen Ke was slightly surprised in his heart, the big man who built the tomb gave the side door spell was very valuable.
He even felt the urge to flee the town right away.
This kind of seemingly powerless, but very useful side spell, will those big people really let it spread unchecked?
Giving so many people at once this side door spell, although it is not a tangible thing, can be copied, and how much they give themselves will not lose anything.
But for the upper class, it is also a loss of interests.
After all, if anyone could make these things, who would buy them?
After thanking the clerk, Chen Ke went to the butcher shop again.
The price of meat has risen again, and it costs eight silver coins a catty.
However, he still bought a hundred catties to store, he has tested it in the past few days, and the things that are put into the space backpack can indeed keep them fresh, which is very good.
After doing this, he went to the pharmacy again, spent all the silver coins, bought all the dead scatters, and then bought a lot of ordinary herbs in the stall area.
When he left the market, he only had thirty whole gold coins left on him.
"Money is only money if it is spent."
Chen Ke secretly comforted himself.
All the way back home, he put everything else down and took out the pickaxe to study the excavation.
He started at the end of the bed, and according to the instructions of the excavation technique, he used the spiritual power to the pickaxe, and then wielded the pickaxe to dig.
At first, I didn't feel anything, as if the blessings of spiritual power had no effect at all.
But as the pickaxe was wielded again and again, gradually, the spiritual power instilled into the pickaxe was all turned into wisps that seeped into the ground and decomposed the soil.
After a long time, a realization came to my heart.
[Chen Ke: Third-rate]
[Second Order of Yamakawachi Practice: 4/200]
[Pharmaceutical 2nd Order: 7/200]
[Torch Crafting Skill: 1/200]
[Poison Primer: 36/100]
[Bullet Expert: 451/800]
[Skill in Drawing Blade: 19/200]
[Introduction to Digging: 1/100]
This excavation technique is very easy to get started.
Chen Ke also understood the principle, that is, when wielding a pickaxe, the instilled spiritual power was turned into filaments to cut the earth and stone, and cut it from the most convenient place, so that a lot of strength could be saved.
"It's not what I expected."
Chen Ke frowned, a little disappointed.
Originally, he thought that this so-called excavation technique was the kind of ability in the game that could mine small pieces of material.
As a result, this is really excavation, and it is easier for people to dig.
As for the excavated soil and rocks, etc., they have to be carried slowly by themselves.
Of course, people who have a carry-on space can easily move the earth and rocks away.
Although Chen Ke's space backpack has a limit of 1,000, and the small soil particles can only hold 1,000 grains, as long as the soil is pinched tightly and made into a large piece, it will default that the large piece of soil is a whole and can hold a thousand large pieces of soil.
So, it wasn't much of a hassle for him.
"Let's use it first, it's also convenient to dig cellars."
In the dimly lit room, Chen Ke wielded a pickaxe and dug down again and again.
When he had dug up enough dirt and rocks, he made them into a large mass and put them in his space backpack.
In this way, the one-meter-and-a-half-diameter pit at the foot of the bed slowly deepens.
After eating in the afternoon, he continued to dig.
The upgrade speed of this excavation technique is quite fast, although it is far less fast than the upgrade speed of the carry-on space, but with a few swings of the pickaxe, you can increase your proficiency a little, which is not bad.
During the excavation, time passed little by little, and the pit became deeper and deeper.
It's getting dark, too.
Because the cellar has not yet been dug, it is only a pit seven or eight meters deep, and it is not possible to hide people for the time being, so as not to be stoned to death.
So Chen Ke could only return to the ground and decided to stick to the surface for another night.
Unsurprisingly, as the night deepened, the sound of fighting was heard again in the distance, and it was unknown which family had been robbed.
Fortunately, my family is safe for the time being.
Gradually, the wee hours of the morning came.
Suddenlyβ
"Boom la la ......"
The sound of paper flying sounded.
Chen Ke subconsciously looked up and saw a large amount of paper money falling from the sky.
At night, in the field of vision, there are round paper money falling from the sky over the entire floating name town.
In an instant, Chen Ke's goosebumps came out, and a chill appeared in his heart.
