Chapter 8 [Please add to your favorites]

Xue Rui felt that his luck... wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great either. If he were lucky, how could he have met such a father and a stepmother who secretly hoped for his downfall?

So...should we use this raffle ticket?

You can put the points and coupons aside for now and use them when you need them.

So, what about the raffle tickets?

Xue Rui made up his mind. In fact, it didn't matter when he used the lottery ticket.

He didn't hesitate for long. This was something from the newbie gift pack, and the purpose of giving it to them now was definitely to let them use it immediately.

If you're lucky, you might get good stuff and be able to escape danger later on; if you're unlucky and lack the strength, you'll just die.

He clicked to use it directly, and a very simple lottery page appeared in front of him, which was even worse than the lottery pages in web games.

After the lottery, she didn't show him anything, but put it directly into his backpack.

He glanced at his backpack and saw that besides the two remaining coupons, there was also a dagger.

Check the information about the dagger.

Vampire Dagger (Gold): After attacking an enemy, you can absorb life. The absorbed life can be converted into healing and stored. The storage limit is 5 units of healing. One unit of healing can heal a fatal wound.

Gold-plated! Vampiric and healing!

It's definitely a great product!

Even though Xue Rui hadn't played many games, he could tell that this dagger was extraordinary. It could absorb life as long as it hit an enemy, and it could also be converted into healing units and stored.

That means that as long as his skills are up to par, he can even wear down a powerful enemy.

Just then, someone next to him cursed again.

"100 coins?! What the hell?! Am I really that unlucky?"

He then turned to Xue Rui, his face full of impatience, and asked, "Hey, what did you smoke?"

Xue Rui even followed the principle of not flaunting one's wealth, and then made up a story, saying, "Thank you for your patronage."

The other person was taken aback for a moment, "Huh?"

He then touched his hair, somewhat dazed, and said, "Is this some kind of rip-off? There's even a 'thank you for your patronage'? Bro, you're really unlucky. At least I got a hundred!"

Xue Rui nodded silently, and after thinking for a while, he used the two remaining coupons in his backpack. Since they were for points and money anyway, there was no point in keeping them.

Perhaps finding a sense of superiority in Xue Rui, the man suddenly felt like starting a conversation, "Hey, with all this happening, how can you sleep?"

Xue Rui leaned against the pillow, his head turned inward, subconsciously avoiding the other person's gaze, at least not letting him see his face.

To be honest, he really can't sleep right now, but that guy named Song Ying said it's best not to go out at night.

He didn't think that Song Ying had just said it offhand.

So now you can't go out late at night, especially since the clock starts ticking right after midnight. That means you might have been fine when you came in, but now if you open the door and go outside, things might not be so safe.

"Can't sleep..."

"May I have your name?"

Xue Rui randomly came up with a fake name, "Zheng Li".

"I'm Wu Yin. I'm definitely older than you, so you can call me 'brother.' I'll protect you!"

Xue Rui was silent for a moment, then said, "Thank you."

The situation is unclear, and he has no intention of getting into conflict with anyone for the time being. He is simply enduring it. Over the years, his patience has been honed to a high level, and most importantly, he wants to get back alive.

Wu Yin's vanity was satisfied. "Alright, alright, you'll stay with me these next few days. I'll protect you, no one will dare to bully you. Back in the day, when I was chasing people with a knife..."

While Wu Yin was boasting about his past achievements, Xue Rui was carefully observing the room. There weren't many things inside, just two beds, a wardrobe, a table and chairs, and a bathroom, which looked similar to a two-person dormitory in college.

As she was talking, Wu Yin yawned widely and soon fell asleep wrapped in her blanket.

Xue Rui got up and wandered around the guest room. He opened the wardrobe and found some simple clothes inside. They looked new and should be wearable, but to be on the safe side, it was better not to touch them.

They also checked other areas, but found nothing unusual.

It's best not to open the door for now. There is a window, but it's tightly closed. He pulled back the curtains and looked outside, but it was pitch black and he couldn't see anything.

Xue Rui had no choice but to draw the curtains again and go back to bed. He didn't dare to sleep too soundly, wondering if it was really safe to stay in the room. But somehow, he actually fell asleep!

Lin Leyou slowly woke up, feeling a little confused. He looked at the sunlight streaming into the room through the curtains and suddenly jumped out of bed, exclaiming, "Damn it, I'm late! I'm late!"

He sat up and instinctively bent down to reach under the bed for something.

I never expected that something I could usually reach out and touch would be nowhere to be found today.

Lin Leyou was in a daze for a while before he realized that he was no longer at the construction site, but had come to the Endless World and found a job looking after a small shop in a place called Shangyu Village.

"You scared me."

Relieved, Lin Leyou glanced at the clock on the bedside table. It was around 8:30, more than an hour before the shop opened, so he wasn't in a hurry at all.

He got up and went to the bathroom to wash up and take a shower. After throwing his clothes into the washing machine, he went outside, picked out some food from the shelf, ate a simple breakfast, and then boiled a kettle of water to make tea.

In this small shop, there are no cell phones or computers, and you can't leave your post during business hours, so all you can do is drink tea and enjoy the scenery.

He had almost finished tidying up, and then checked the time: 9:40. He could open the door now. As for whether he should go for a walk in the morning, he would decide in the next few days; after all, he had seven days.

He opened the door of the convenience store; the sun was shining brightly outside, and the weather was beautiful.

Lin Leyou sat behind the counter, opened the drawer and looked inside. It was empty, not a single penny. How was he supposed to give change if someone came to buy something?

Can he take out the 3000 gold coins from his account? If he does, will it be in whole coins or small change?

He tried it out, thinking of taking out a dollar, and a dollar coin actually appeared in his hand. He thought about it and figured that since Song Ying had said he could take all the money he had earned in the past few days with him.

In that case...

Before long, the drawer was filled with a pile of coins and some five-yuan, ten-yuan, twenty-yuan, and even fifty-yuan bills, which were used to make change.

Not long after the door opened, a young man walked in from outside.

"Hello, boss, I'm here to buy cigarettes."
