Chapter 467: Shop

~11 min read 2,017 words

The death of the golden mouse attracted all the residents in this building. They quickly came to the first floor and collected the gold coins scattered on the ground. The quantity was not small, more than a thousand. After they collected the gold coins, they didn't take them as their own, but piled them all on the golden mouse skin.

The golden gold coins emitted a tempting luster.

Everyone was very eager, but followed the rules in the building.

Only adventurers who hunt monsters have the qualification to distribute the spoils, and adventurers must also abide by the rules and distribute the spoils to everyone who participated in the action and provided help.

Li Yi didn't know these rules, but he saw the desire for gold coins in the eyes of these people.

And for him, these gold coins were useless.

Because he is not a permanent resident in the building, he is an outsider and doesn't need to live here for a long time. He just wants to understand this strange place, so he just grabbed a handful of gold coins and said: "You can split the remaining gold coins equally, consider it a meeting gift from me."

"Great."

It's just that they failed.

In %Read! 【x】

Li Yi saw a man put down a gold coin and actually carried dozens of bags of rice away. Obviously, the purchasing power of a gold coin was stronger than imagined. And strangely, the rice was like endless, constantly rolling down from the rice warehouse. He also saw a woman holding a gold coin to the dry corpse, indicating that she wanted to pay electricity and water bills.

"Interesting things."

They have their own set of distribution criteria.

However, these things were within Li Yi's cognitive range and didn't count as anything.

But no one moved this golden mouse skin, which seemed to be defaulted to belong to Li Yi.

Because until now, Li Yi hadn't seen anyone buy a sword or a gun to protect their own safety. Logically speaking, in this kind of place, the most important thing should be weapons, because only with weapons can you fight with monsters and have the opportunity to hunt monsters to get more gold coins, so as to live better.

This is a magical magic map. After he picked up the map, the black fog on the map surface dispersed, revealing the appearance of this building. Every floor was clearly displayed, and there was a special mark on the twenty-fifth floor, which was the appearance of a soul-dead monster.

Suddenly, Li Yi found something he was interested in, a sheepskin map, priced at twenty gold coins.

The residents who had previously received gold coins also came to the shop one after another, buying a large amount of daily necessities, carrying them away, but before leaving the shop, they would put down a gold coin.

"Is that a map?"

"..." Li Yi felt this answer was really good.

Although the corpse in the building is rotting and the protection ability is weakening, if you can hunt monsters and pour their blood on the corpse, you can delay the rotting speed of the corpse, and even allow the corpse to repair itself.

There are rice, soy sauce, salt, clothes, cloth, and other daily necessities, as well as tools such as scissors and kitchen knives, and even cold medicine and anti-inflammatory medicine. This place is like a large supermarket, where you can meet all your daily needs.

"By the way, let me ask you, if I don't pay and leave the shop with things, what will happen?" Suddenly, Li Yi asked.

Dark erosion affected her perception, otherwise she could follow the vine to find the source of power of this dry corpse.

But if there are many people, then contradictions and conflicts are inevitable.

At this time, the girl named Bai You walked over with more than ten gold coins: "This golden mouse skin is very rare. Wearing it on your body can allow you to enter a room and take away the treasures inside, but it can only be used once. After one time, it will be damaged. I have seen people wearing golden mouse skin enter a room and take away a war axe, and later used that war axe to kill many monsters."

Everyone got more than ten gold coins, and some families of four or five people received dozens of them at once. This money was undoubtedly a huge wealth for them, allowing them to live for a long time.

Bai You said: "There is also a soul-dead monster on the twenty-fifth floor, which is also locked in a room. But the soul-dead monster is not easy to deal with. If you want to kill it, you must use a soul-dead sickle."

Soft and comfortable, with strong warmth, and it seems to have not weak defense. Of course, this is also for ordinary people. For an outsider cultivator like Li Yi, the defense is still not worth mentioning.

There are even people holding sick children, holding gold coins to ask the dry corpse to treat the disease. The dry corpse raised its withered arm, as if performing witchcraft, and a pale green light appeared and shone on the child, and the child's pain was immediately cured.

Took out the previous gold coins, he put down twenty in the counter. As the dry corpse collected the gold coins, this transaction was completed.

Reached out and touched to sense.

"How to get the soul-dead sickle?" Li Yi asked again.

"Kill a soul-dead monster and you can snatch its soul-dead sickle." Bai You said.

He didn't hesitate and walked upstairs again. To avoid attracting too much attention, Li Yi didn't choose to perform the cloud-treading technique.

It's just that there was a mark on the thirtieth floor, and the mark was a red door. As for what this represented, Li Yi didn't know.

This set of rules, if it continues to run like this, is indeed no problem.

Seeing this, Li Yi picked up the golden mouse skin.

However, strangely, the shop owner was not a living person, but a dry corpse. The corpse sat in front of the counter, motionless, with an old TV set next to it. The TV had no signal and kept making rustling sounds. And in the shop, many things were displayed.

Besides that, there were many weapons, knives, guns, and swords of cold weapons, handguns, hunting guns, and explosives of hot weapons.

"However, you can go to the shop and see. There might be something to deal with the soul-dead monster." Bai You said, mentioning the shop again.

Just when Li Yi was thinking.

Li Yi then put away the golden mouse skin and said: "Are there many monsters in this building?"

"This works too?" Li Yi was stunned when he saw this. He met with Xuan Yuezi and then came to the tenth floor.

This shows that monsters are wandering on that floor.

The entire tenth floor belongs to the shop's range, but many shops are closed, and only one shop still has lights on.

It's really a perfect closed loop.

Li Yi thought of the forked road rooms in the passage before upon hearing this.

The style of the shop is a bit old, like the style of the eighties.

But Li Yi understood after recalling the huge mouse just now.

That is to distribute by head.

The risk is too great.

It is indeed a bit miraculous.

And after observation, he found.

Very quickly.

After the gold coins were distributed, only a golden mouse skin was left on the ground.

A complete golden mouse skin seems to be a treasure here too.

Li Yi weighed the gold coins in his hand: "Good, I'll go to the shop on the tenth floor and see."

Didn't expect the golden mouse skin to be used like this.

The most basic food and drink in the shop are very cheap, and what is really expensive are weapons and extraordinary things.

As long as this strange shop is maintained, people can live without leaving home.

And the dry corpse sitting at the counter collected the gold coins into the drawer below.

"Good stuff." Li Yi decided to buy this map. This thing is very useful in this world.

And strangely, after Li Yi took this map, his own position also appeared on it. It was a glowing small dot, and as he moved, the small dot also moved.

From the situation in this building, it is not difficult to infer that there was indeed a prosperous time here, but as time passed, it declined, leaving only more than a hundred residents. Perhaps the situation in other buildings would be much better, but the world in the building moving towards destruction is also a matter of time.

But some things have already deviated from the ordinary category and involved the extraordinary and cultivation.

With the strength and power of these ordinary people, it is too difficult to hunt such creatures. Even with weapons in their hands, they are likely not the opponents of monsters. Before, in the room where the mouse was trapped, Li Yi saw many damaged weapons, each with dry blood stains, which was enough to prove that the people in this building had also worked hard.

But people are complex and changeable.

And the huge corpse in the middle of the building can also emit a strange energy field, nourishing the people in the building, so that they will not become weak and sick because of this harsh environment. At the same time, the corpse can also resist the invasion of danger.

Because it's very simple.

After the dry corpse collected the gold coins, a household immediately lit up.

For example, he saw a magic book on a shelf in the shop, locked with an iron chain, looking ancient and mysterious. And he also saw an elf in an iron cage, but the elf was not as beautiful as in fairy tales, but thin and shriveled, full of sharp teeth, and extremely ugly. "So that's it. The survival in the building depends on this strange shop." Li Yi understood this. Why can people in this building live here for decades?

Everyone cheered, and immediately a few elderly people stood up and began to distribute the gold coins in front of them.

It seems that Bai You is right.

When Li Yi was studying these things, Xuan Yuezi stared at the dry corpse. In her view, this dry corpse was not as simple as it appeared on the surface. It seemed to be a manifestation of some kind of power. This power was somewhat similar to the huge female corpse in the middle of the building, but this place was special.

Without the soul-dead sickle, you can't kill the soul-dead monster, and if you can't kill the soul-dead monster, you can't get the soul-dead sickle.

Once the number of people in the building declines to a certain extent, the balance will be broken, and the operation of the building will have problems. By then, even if there is a heart to save, there is nothing that can be done.

"Soul-dead monster? Is it that kind of thing floating in the sky?" Li Yi heard her describe it and immediately thought of the strange thing before.

Bai You nodded: "Yes."

Most people naturally choose survival as the priority.

"Then your things can't be taken out of the shop. Everyone must abide by the shop's rules." The man who carried the rice back again said enthusiastically: "Really thank you this time. Without you, our family would have to go hungry this year."

After saying that, this man quickly carried the rice and left.

Xuan Yuezi said: "A powerful existence has formulated a series of rules to protect the people of this world. Everyone must rely on these rules to survive. Many places seem unreasonable, but in fact, the answer has already appeared."

Saying this, she looked at the huge rotten female corpse.
