Yu Qi calmly took the magnetic device back. After the discount, the device only cost 790 crystal coins, which was well worth the price.
Next, she found a very useful diving cloak for the waters she was likely to encounter next.
After putting on this cloak, you can breathe freely in the water like a fish.
Wait a minute, Yu Qi suddenly remembered that her appearance in the home was always that of a mermaid, but every time she came out, she would turn into a human form.
If she encounters real danger in the water, will she turn into a mermaid?
After thinking it over, Yu Qi ultimately decided not to put the cloak down.
She guessed that she might actually become a mermaid in the future, but that might only happen when her home was upgraded to a certain level.
Therefore, a diving cloak is very useful. It can be used for three hours a day, and it is also a lifesaver in case of any crisis in the water.
Next, she found a large, dark net. According to the wooden man shop owner, casting this net out could retrieve some strange and unusual things.
Often, the wooden shopkeeper obtains items from the water using this large net.
"I remember, manager, you said you'd give me something for free, or this internet cafe." Yu Qi weighed it in her hand and smiled.
The wooden shopkeeper was clearly very reluctant, but for the sake of his future continuous supply of spring water, he reluctantly nodded.
"Then next time you come, you'll have to give me two buckets, no, three buckets of spring water for free!"
The wooden shopkeeper stretched out three wooden fingers.
Yu Qi was overjoyed. It turned out that pretending at the beginning was indeed very useful.
Even now, this wooden shopkeeper is asking for an exorbitant amount, but it's only three buckets of spring water, which is a piece of cake for her; she can handle it in no time!
Yu Qi pretended to be a little hesitant, but finally nodded: "Okay, since you're so agreeable, I won't say anything more. No matter how far it is, I'll bring you those three buckets of spring water!"
The wooden shopkeeper across the street was clearly very satisfied. She packed all the items she had selected into a wooden box and then took out a gleaming gold card and placed it on top.
"I used this gold card on you and rounded it down, so it's 6500 crystal coins in total..."
Upon seeing this, Yu Qi's lips twitched.
Although she has accumulated nearly 20,000 crystal coins, she still feels a bit heartbroken to suddenly spend so many.
However, what the wooden man shop manager said next made her eyes light up.
"You gave me three buckets of spring water, so I'll pay you six hundred crystal coins per bucket..."
"Huh? What's with that look? You're not regretting selling me this spring water now, are you? Let me tell you, I've already used it all up!"
The wooden shopkeeper quickly pulled his bathwater back, afraid that the woman in front of him would find an excuse to take it back.
Yu Qi: "..."
It's already turned into bathwater, why would she want to go back? She was just too surprised when she heard it!
Currently, there are countless springs in the wells of our home, which can be said to be a business with no cost!
A barrel costs 600, which means that she only needs to sell about ten more barrels to earn back her expenses for today!
Congratulations!
"Manager, look at what you're saying. Do you think I'm such an untrustworthy person? Since these spring waters have already been sold, there's no way I can take them back. I'll bring you new spring water next time!"
She explained repeatedly.
The wooden man shopkeeper nodded in satisfaction.
"From now on, you can contact me through this gold card."
Yu Qi readily accepted it. To be honest, this was the first time she had obtained a gold card through her own efforts.
After leaving the store, she saw the little wooden figure secretly watching her again.
Yu Qi looked at the little wooden figure that had hidden away, lost in thought.
While the shop manager was away and she was focused on soaking in the hot spring, she summoned the little wooden figure.
"Do you remember things from before? Or have you been here since you had memories?"
She whispered.
"Are you trying to survive on the highway?" the little wooden figure asked softly.
Yu Qi nodded calmly. This was the first time a monster had mentioned road survival. Previously, the monsters only knew about the players, but had never explained what the specific survival game was like.
This wooden figure is probably from a modern gamer.
She was shocked when she compared the time the little wooden figure had given her.
Since the little wooden figure has been here for several years, it means that this game may have started several years ago!
Why is it that their game has only been running for a few days? Is the flow of time different?
No, that's impossible. Perhaps there's another explanation: does this game start every so often?
So where did those veteran players go? Do they have their own separate arena?
So, were her parents and sister also taken away when the game started?
Yu Qi was deep in thought, but in the end, she didn't say anything more.
Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw the little wooden figure sneakily bringing her something.
It was a stone, polished smooth, with a single character written on its back.
temperature.
"I used to have this with me, but now I can't leave. Could you help me take this out? I think someone will recognize it."
The little wooden figure scratched at a few withered yellow leaves.
Yu Qi watched as the wooden figure's leaves withered quickly. Before leaving, she quietly scooped out a bottle of water and made the little wooden figure drink it all.
Seeing that the water had dried up, she turned around, got into her armored vehicle, and was taken away from the place.
As she left, she noticed that the little wooden figure was still looking in her direction, its gaze seemingly clear for a moment, but quickly turning a withered yellow.
With this heavy feeling in her heart, she sighed.
Life is unpredictable, and survival games are even more dangerous, with a high chance of death. Who can guarantee that they will survive to the end?
She opened the food container, enjoyed a delicious meal, and then comfortably took a watermelon and put it in the refrigerator.
Once the fruit trees in her garden ripen, she'll have plenty of fresh fruit to eat again!
Just as Yu Qi was about to eat the chilled watermelon, the AAA grocery shopping group jumped up again in a flurry.
The man in white, brewing tea, said, "I'm sorry, boss. It's all because of me that your identity was exposed. Wu Feng really did reveal your information!"
Lolita: "What happened? There were only two of you at the time. How could a stranger guess the identity of the mastermind behind the hunt?"
Rampaging Lolita: "Boss, how about we team up again and go straight to stop that Stormy Night? But he's so awful, he's even more awful than that Flower Blooming Season!"
At least during this period, when the flowers were in bloom, they were quite well-behaved and didn't show their faces much. But this turbulent time has made them furious.
Silent and reserved: "Just kill them!"
Star River in Dreams: "Could there be any special cards in that'Stormy Times' section that can reveal a player's nickname, or perhaps some special skill?"
Seeing the anger in the grocery shopping group, Yu Qi didn't stop cutting the watermelon.
The world is vast, but eating melons is the most important thing!
She popped a piece of chilled watermelon into her mouth and then opened the chat room.
The strongest in the universe: "Holy crap, is what you said about'Stormy Times' really true? 'Hunting Moment' really just a little girl, and she was in the woods with a man in the middle of the night?"
Flash-feeding kill: "So the Hunting Moment is actually run by a woman, then she definitely didn't achieve those rankings herself! Being with a man in the middle of the night, maybe they made some kind of deal that allowed her to stay at the top of the rankings!"
Dark Cloud Covering the Toilet: "Do you guys have to be so foul-mouthed? Do you think no one knows what happened last night? The top hunter cleared an entire wilderness dungeon!"
Meow Alien: "Yeah, the hunting boss must have been there with her teammates back then. Her teammates included men, is that so strange?"
"I know you all don't believe me and think I'm just spreading rumors, but I really saw it with my own eyes and verified it! If you believe me, I'll show you the screenshots from yesterday!"
Soon after, Feng Yu Piaoyao posted a picture showing a scene from the previous night.
At that time, Yu Qi was walking with Zhan Bai, but when Wu Feng was filming, some misalignment made it look like they were hugging.
Not only that, Wu Feng was unaware that he had obtained a special card with a photo showing the moment of the hunt and information about a white-robed man brewing tea.
A River of Misty Rain: "Holy crap, there really is a photo! Bro, you're not using a real ID card, are you? The image displayed on a real ID card is exactly like this!"
Ruthless Flower Destroyer: "I can't believe it! The top hunter is actually with a middle-aged man. How indiscriminate can she be? Would a normal young girl be with a middle-aged man? If they didn't make some shady deal, I'd eat shit upside down!"
Rampaging Lolita: "I'm so angry! Some people just can't stand seeing others be strong, right? When hunting down a top player, you can carry the whole team by yourself. Do you need to make any shady deals?"
The bald girl's stubbornness: "Ha, I was there last night too, how could I not know what happened? Some people are just asking for it!"
Soon, Yu Qi saw a bunch of private messages in her inbox.
Many people comforted her and showed concern for her, but there were also a few who took the initiative to send their photos and recommend themselves.
Some people, seeing that she didn't reply, started hurling insults at her in private messages.
Rampaging Lolita: "Boss, that guy'Stormy Wind and Rain' is just looking for trouble! He's so awful..."
Hunting Moment: "It's okay, I've already locked onto him."
