Chapter 163 Safe House [End]

Gan Mi didn't believe the name of the biotechnology reaction system at first.

But Xu Zhiyan said that what he said was true, and he even expressed his willingness to take a lie detector test with props. This made Gan Mi hesitate and wonder if there were any hidden products for sale in the system mall.

After receiving the new news, Gan Mi lost interest in shopping and left in a hurry.

Xu Zhiyan looked at the other person's back and suggested enthusiastically: "Do you need me to ask for you? But I'm not sure if I can figure out the working principle. How about 100,000 for one question?"

The gift of 800,000 points was given away at will. He felt that Gan Mi could be squeezed out of oil by just pressing it lightly.

"Why don't you go and rob?"

Gan Mi paused, turned around and said something fiercely.

No, I still regret it.

Nothing good happens every time I meet Xu Zhiyan!

He was clearly cursing himself in his heart, but he looked at the thin young man standing near the blind box machine, looking at him with a smile, hesitated for a moment, and walked back.

When she met those beautiful eyes, Gan Mi was like a possessed person, and somehow made another invitation.

"Xu Zhiyan, if you want to invest in the auction, you can come to me."

This was the second time he had invited Xu Zhiyan. The only difference was that last time he represented Yan Chengfan.

This time, he represented himself.

As soon as Gan Mi finished speaking, he regretted it.

Once the invitation was sent out, Xu Zhiyan would have guessed with a 90% IQ that he was the owner of the auction. Thinking that the other party refused to do a human transaction, he became inexplicably irritable and had to hurry to make amends.

"I have invested in the auction. If you want, I can introduce the boss to you."

This made sense, and he felt a little relieved.

"Boss Gan, is your nickname really the Smiling Tiger? Why do I feel like you're always so unhappy?"

Xu Zhiyan's refusal was more tactful than expected.

He did not elaborate on his views on the auction, but just stared at Gan Mi's frowning brows and smiled with the corners of his mouth curled: "It would be better to make you unhappy in the future."

"Xu Ba Sui, how old are you? Why do you still like giving people nicknames?" Gan Mi continued the topic.

Understanding the rejection in Xu Zhiyan's words, he did not force it.

A few minutes later, Xu Zhiyan saw Gan Mi's shadow completely disappear, and the faint smile on his face faded.

The invitation to invest came suddenly.

For a moment he thought Gan Mi was the boss of the auction... but this was a little unreasonable. The other party was not even in the top 50 on the ranking list, so theoretically he shouldn't have such great power.

After taking a look at the blind box machine running smoothly, he walked around it and went to his own simple little shop.

I don’t know if it’s because he left the luxurious scene of the auction, but when he saw his small shop again, Xu Zhiyan sighed in his heart that doing business properly is not as profitable as doing illegal business.

But when he thought of those bloody transactions, he lost interest at all.

After arranging for Qu Ji to pick up the goods at the free warehouse, Xu Zhiyan pulled up his hood again and went to the black market to buy some seeds.

Before leaving, he also instructed Qu Ji to release Yu Xiu.

As a businessman, he is better at making money and has little interest in controlling other people's lives.

"Tell him I bought him because I wanted the props for the matching goods. Tell him to get out of the shell immediately, otherwise the time he spends in there will be charged to me."

I don’t know if it’s because of the slave contract, but I just glanced at the balance and found that it was a little less. I clicked on the details and found out that Yu Xiu’s stay time was actually counted on Xu Zhiyan. He finally understood why that teammate was so anxious to get rid of Yu Xiu.

Although the opponent can still enter the dungeon normally, he is only counted as half a player.

The time he spends in the shell and other expenses are all charged to the owner, and the longer he stays, the more expensive it will be.

Xu Zhiyan felt that he could not sell the person like a commodity again, nor could he enter the dungeon and use violence and bloodshed to open the barrier. To him, Yu Xiu was just a money-burning machine.

The black market was crowded with people, and the stalls were filled with a wide variety of goods.

The seeds produced by mutated plants are generally considered to be relatively numerous among the special trading items, and it is not difficult to purchase them.

But Xu Zhiyan was very picky about the seeds and the purchase was not smooth. When he finally left the black market and logged into the safe house, it was almost evening.

But the atmosphere in the safe house was a little off at the moment.

In the hall of the Yunshan old house, the atmosphere was unprecedentedly depressing. There was not a sound. Qu Ji stood with his head down, and it seemed that the whole monster was immersed in great fear.

"What's wrong?" Xu Zhiyan was confused. He had never seen Qu Ji so panicked before, and subconsciously thought that the goods were lost.

"Brother Xu..." Qu Ji looked up eagerly and pointed at the gate of the yard.

"The Yu Xiu you mentioned, he, he is just outside the door."

"???"

Now it was Xu Zhiyan's turn to be confused.

A few minutes later, with Qu Ji's stammering explanation, he finally understood the whole story.

It turned out that a few hours ago, it received a task to pick up goods from the warehouse. It took the chair according to the procedure, and then fished Yu Xiu out of the cage, took him to an empty corner, and asked him to go offline.

"I've made it very clear... I told Brother Xu that you don't need him."

Qu Jibei was heartbroken and handed over Yu Xiu's seller's note: "I clearly saw him log out of the shell, but in the blink of an eye, I came back from the shop and found him knocking on the door outside the safe house yard!"

Seeing Qu Ji's almost fainting expression, and the other monsters looking as if they were facing a formidable enemy, Xu Zhiyan realized belatedly that it must be because of the slave contract that Yu Xiulian's log-in and log-out locations were bound to him.

How abominable.

He cursed the auction in his heart. Such an important thing was sold without any testing!

But things have come to this point, Xu Zhiyan had no choice but to hold his nose and solve this problem.

Fortunately, Yu Xiu’s logout location was not inside the safe house, but on the roadside outside the door, so it was not the worst case scenario.

After throwing the seeds to Qu Ji and asking him to arrange a monster specializing in farming, Xu Zhiyan grabbed a thick coat and put it on, then reluctantly walked out to deal with the unexpected incident.

As soon as he left, the monsters that had been poking their heads out just now suddenly wilted and hid themselves again.

The sound of chains colliding could be heard, the smell of ashes filled the air, and the figures of ghosts and gods appeared from the void, making the entire space even more depressing.

He tilted his head and glanced at where he usually sat.

After Qu Ji came back, he gave him props. Xu Zhiyan bought a new chair specifically for him...

It is hard not to be moved by a gift from a loved one.

So starting from the afternoon, the ghosts and gods waited happily for Xu Zhiyan to come back, and they waited until the sun set.

Before I knew it, I saw a strange human player knocking on the door.

After learning from Qu Ji that this human player was bought by Xu Zhiyan, and that the chair was actually a gift for the purchase, Guishen's mood gradually fell to the bottom.

Who on earth could make Xu Zhiyan spend such a huge amount of money to buy it and then tell him the address of the safe house?

He kept making one assumption after another, and he was extremely flustered.

On the side of the road, Xu Zhiyan was unaware of Party A's complicated feelings. He looked at Yu Xiu, who was sitting under the street light with his knees hugged, and felt overwhelmed.

He gathered his clothes and walked over to ask helplessly, "Why are you here?"

Yu Xiu himself was older than he looked in the photo, about sixteen or seventeen years old, skinny and bony. He wore a short-sleeved shirt and cropped pants in the middle of winter, and his exposed ankles were red from the cold.

He thought of the seller's notes, frowned, and opened the paper that Qu Ji had just handed him.

[He is autistic and doesn't talk much. He will be obedient after a beating. There is no need to be soft-hearted. He won't die from normal abuse.]

The meaning behind these few lines sends chills down your spine.

Seeing that Yu Xiu didn't answer, Xu Zhiyan scratched his hair, looking worried, not knowing how to treat the person in front of him.

Under the seller's abuse, Yu Xiu, who was probably not very cheerful to begin with, became exceptionally quiet and refused to accept any information from the outside world for a long time.

Xu Zhiyan sighed, squatted down and looked at the other person at eye level, trying to make his thoughts clear.

"It was an accident that I bought you, and it was also an accident that you ended up here. I'll call the police for you later. Go home to your parents, go to school, and get your diploma. I won't interfere with you."

He wanted to collect blood next, so he couldn't bring the burden with him.

I don’t know which words stimulated Yu Xiu, but he reacted slightly and rested his forehead on his knees and begged.

"I have nowhere to go, just kill me."

There was only calmness in the hoarse voice.

He really didn't want to live anymore.

Xu Zhiyan pinched the bridge of his nose, his mind racing, trying to figure out how to deal with the situation.

He could understand that he had no place to go in the shell, but why did he have no place to go in the real world? Could it be that this child was an orphan?

Just at this moment, the courier Xiao Zhou came to deliver the goods before it got completely dark. He saw Xu Zhiyan from a distance, but considering the previous rules, he just parked his car a little further away.

"Brother Xu! I haven't seen you for a long time."

He received an extra salary from Xu Zhiyan, so of course he was very enthusiastic when he met the second boss.

"All that arrived today are snacks! There are so many varieties."

Seeing a young man in short sleeves sitting next to Xu Zhiyan, Xiao Zhou tried to persuade him while moving boxes: "Brother Xu, is this your relative? Damn, kids these days are so rebellious. It's so cold and windy. We need to go home quickly."

Xu Zhiyan laughed awkwardly: "A distant relative, I'll take him back soon."

Xiao Zhou had something else to do, so he said goodbye and left after putting down the express.

Watching the tricycle go away, Xu Zhiyan sighed and pointed at the express delivery nearby.

"Come, move in with me."

In the contract, the master is in a state of absolute suppression over the slave. As long as Xu Zhiyan does not sell Yu Xiu again, the other party will not tell anyone about the safe house, so the insurance factor is acceptable.

Free labor is better used than wasted.

It’s a pity that after he finished speaking, Yu Xiu still sat there, not moving a single step.

The cold wind kept blowing into his neck, blowing away Xu Zhiyan's patience, and his voice became much colder when he spoke again.

"Carry the things to the door with me. That's an order."

After the word "command" appeared, no matter how reluctant Yu Xiu was, he had to stand up, walk to a place several dozen meters away, and pick up the box.

The express box was not heavy, and Xu Zhiyan asked a few questions when the two of them moved it back. After learning that the skinny and small Yu Xiu was actually nineteen years old, he completely didn't want to care about him anymore.

The snack boxes were piled at the door of the safe house. After moving them, Xu Zhiyan simply took off his coat and threw it to Yu Xiu, then took out three hundred yuan from his pocket.

"There is a bus stop after you get off the mountain. A few stops later you will reach the city. You can go eat something and find a hotel. When you wake up, do some odd jobs or find a job that provides food and accommodation."

Maybe it was too cold, he spoke very quickly.

"But since I am your benefactor, I hope you will keep my kindness firmly in mind and silently recite 'Xu Zhiyan makes a fortune' three times every day."

He doesn't like people who lack fighting spirit.

In Yu Xiu's situation, he could only be a passive prop once he entered the dungeon. He didn't even have the initiative to move boxes, which made him give up.

After saying this, Xu Zhiyan no longer paid attention to Yu Xiu.

He pushed open the gate and strode into the old house, while Qu Ji carefully reached out and took back all the express deliveries piled outside the door.

"Bang--"

The yard gate was closed.

Under the dim street lights, Yu Xiu was at a loss, holding his coat which still had body temperature. His frozen fingers seemed to suddenly regain consciousness.

After a while, he quietly raised his head, looked at the tightly closed gate, hesitated for a long time, and then slowly spoke.

"I hope Xu Zhiyan will make a fortune..."

…

In the hall of Yunshan old house.

"I've had bad luck lately, and it seems like I've been losing money all the time." As soon as he entered the door, Xu Zhiyan frowned and wailed.

He suspected that his little luck had indeed been drained away in the previous copy.

"I bought chairs during the day and found an illegal transaction. In the afternoon, I bought seeds and saw that the price of each one had gone up. When I got home in the evening, I had to pay with my clothes and 300 yuan to get rid of the burden."

Xu Zhiyan sat down on the sofa chair next to the fireplace angrily, feeling irritated.

He seemed to have been hit by some negative state in which the price of vegetables would inevitably go up. If it weren't for Gan Mi, the big scapegoat, who covered for him during the day, he would have wasted his time looking for an auction and spent ten extra points to buy the auction item list.

The three words "burden" seemed to please someone.

The air trembled, and ghosts appeared silently beside the young man who was cursing angrily.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Xu Zhiyan's attitude towards the players who bought in from outside, His mood suddenly improved a lot, and he no longer felt that the other party was an eyesore.

After meeting Party A, Xu Zhiyan finally calmed down.

"Don't mention it. Today is really a bad day. I'm so unlucky." He curled his lips, feeling depressed, and briefly shared what happened today.

"…That's about it. It's a bit annoying."

Xu Zhiyan sighed.

"I was just planning to buy you a chair, but I didn't expect to run into so many messes. I decided to stay in the safe house for the rest of the time and not go out. I'll go straight into the dungeon after I've built up my luck."

The ghost looked at the young man with a face full of resentment and couldn't help but laugh softly.

"It will take some time for the system to determine the coordinates. You should rest well in the safe house for the next few days."

There are many things going on in the safe house, and Xu Zhiyan has no plans to enter the dungeon for the time being. Yu Rou's cocoon bag has not responded, and is now piled in the warehouse with her life or death unknown. He wants to wait for Jin Sheng and Jiang Huaique to come out of the dungeon before making any decisions.

"That's what I thought..."

But before Xu Zhiyan could finish his words, the safe house system suddenly made a strange cry and appeared.

[Help! Host, what’s wrong with you? Why did I receive a notification to enter the dungeon? Didn’t you just leave the dungeon not long ago?!]

The CPU is going to burn out.

Why did its host just go to the shell once and then get a new copy prompt after coming back!

"What?"

Xu Zhiyan's pupils shrank slightly and he quickly called up the panel.

[Player Xu Zhiyan, please be prepared to enter the dungeon]

[The login time for the copy [Tanling Live Room] has been determined]

What the hell? He just came out of the dungeon not long ago... Damn, could it be because the previous dungeon was not settled? But this is not right, his dungeons are all arranged by the safe house system.

After a little thought, Xu Zhiyan felt disappointed.

It's probably about the slave signing again... No wonder that black-hearted teammate took action against Yu Xiu so quickly. It seems that the other party has been dragging his feet on entering the dungeon for a long time. These few days are the deadline for entering the dungeon, so he was forced to arrange it.

[Wow, wow, wow, it seems the main system has sentenced you to form a team, your teammates' dungeon! I'm going to enter the dungeon tomorrow, what should I do...]

The safe house system is feeling miserable, as it is still working hard to lock onto the exact coordinates of the blood.

The unlucky chosen one, Xu Zhiyan, was silent for a moment, then grabbed Party A's wrist and said angrily, "No, if you don't give me some luck, I'm afraid I'll choke to death even if I drink water."

I thought my luck was already very bad, but I didn’t expect it to be even worse!

"It seems that I can't tell what star level it is before entering the dungeon... What if there are no slices? Wouldn't it be a waste of time!"

He almost fainted when he thought that he might have to go to the next copy in vain.

The ghost looked at Xu Zhiyan, who was so angry that he almost lost his mind, and reached out to touch the other's soft hair.

"It doesn't matter."

In fact, He really wanted to say that if Xu Zhiyan really didn't want to enter the dungeon, then he should just stay in the safe house forever...

As more and more body fragments are recovered, He is confident that He has the strength to sustain until the other person lives a peaceful and happy life.

"It doesn't matter!" Xu Zhiyan glared at the ghost, his eyes turned red with anger.

"If we retrieve a slice, we can get skill points and upgrade the safe house. Our current plan is to impact the main system's potion market, so we must have good stuff."

He will not miss any opportunity to make money.

"The blood should be very strong, right? If we take it back, can we level up twice?" Xu Zhiyan's thoughts jumped, and he quickly thought about the benefits of finding the blood.

“…”

The ghosts and gods were stunned.

There is no doubt about the power of blood. He was worried that Xu Zhiyan would be worried about the other party's infinite splitting characteristics, but he did not expect that his successor had no fear at all, but was eager to try.

Xu Zhiyan was still thinking about supplies.

"If the supply chain is upgraded by two levels, we should be able to mass-produce pillows with repairing power."

Imagine a better future.

His mood finally improved a little.

"Mass-produced healing items! Just think about it and you know they will sell like hot cakes. The underground level of the black market has already been sold out. I think if I pay more, I can buy some in other places."

Thinking of the luxurious decoration of the auction, he rubbed his hands with some anticipation.

"As a businessman, how can I not have a business and an auction? When I have money, I will buy the best land in the trading zone! But as for this instance... since it's Yu Xiu's instance, he will definitely join me in the instance."

After a brief period of catharsis-induced dementia, Xu Zhiyan returned to normal.

He began to think about how to make the most of this passively purchased teammate in the new dungeon.

“His abilities are a little off the charts.”

"But it is definitely a skill that comes in handy at critical moments. We need to find a way to stimulate this kid and make him evolve so that he can turn his skill into an active skill..."

Xu Zhiyan frowned and thought about how to make Yu Xiu willing to work for him.

"Should I care about him a little, and then I can help him gain enlightenment when I encounter a life-or-death moment... Never mind, it's a little dangerous, so I'd better think about it in the long run."

There was complete silence in the safe house.

From ghosts and gods to monsters, everyone was shocked by Xu Zhiyan's words and didn't dare to breathe.

The ghost held back his laughter and said nothing.

This is indeed Xu Zhiyan's style. No matter he is targeted by the system or faces adversity after his luck disappears, he is not afraid. Instead, he becomes more courageous.

There was greed, anger and unwillingness in his clear eyes...but he did not retreat.

It seemed like something was beating in my empty chest.

But the ghosts and gods could only suppress their love and stand by carefully and clumsily.

He reached out his hand and pinched the young man's ear.

"Let's have some luck first."

…

The next day, the weather was sunny and windy.

Xu Zhiyan slept until noon and no monster dared to disturb him.

The young man came out of bed again, and there was a small black mole on his right earlobe.

While brushing his teeth, he pulled his ears and looked at himself in the mirror for a long time.

Compared to blood vessels, luck is easier to implant.

But I don’t know if Xu Zhiyan’s luck is really too bad, after the implantation, this lucky mole actually became a skill.

The good news is that the skills are strong.

The bad news is that the skill only lasts for a split second.

[Skill name: Heaven-defying luck (primary)]

【Consumption: None】

[Skill details: Instant skill, the effect only lasts for a moment, it can greatly change the player's current fortune, allowing the player to change his fate in the moment. ]

【Note: Each copy can only be used once. 】

However, Xu Zhiyan only mocked the main system a few times, and then gladly accepted this skill.

For him, it is enough to have incredible luck at the moment of making a decision.

There are still two hours before logging into the dungeon.

Because the copy information came so suddenly, the monsters in the safe house were so busy that sparks were almost coming off their feet.

Qu Ji held up the snack jar in his hand. On its legs lay three little black-haired monsters - they were mutated black otters.

Unlike living otters, their eyes are not black but pure white without eyeballs. Their fur is stained with indelible blood. They have good intelligence but unfortunately cannot speak.

"No, it's not your turn yet."

Qu Ji tried to shake his legs, but the furry otter monster held him tightly and he couldn't get rid of it.

"Three days - I told you that the blind box machine will change shifts after three days! A bucket of snacks every three days! You just had a day off, and now you are in another group!"

It dragged out the sound helplessly, trying to persuade the monsters who wanted to work non-stop.

Seeing Xu Zhiyan coming, Qu Ji asked helplessly.

"Brother Xu, should we reduce the number of monsters in the blind box machine? Six is too many."

Xu Zhiyan, leaning on the stair railing, shook his head.

"No, we have to find something for these six little things to do."

As he spoke, he grabbed three bags of snacks from the jar in Qu Ji's hand, squatted down and touched the otter monster's head.

Three furry little heads kept pushing into his hands, which made him feel a little itchy.

After distributing the snacks to the monsters and watching the three little monsters walk away with the bags in their arms, Xu Zhiyan stood up and spoke helplessly.

"Honghong caught too many before. Even if we want to enrich the species in the safe house, we don't have to catch so many..." The main reason is that these six little monsters are very weak, and their cute appearance bewitched Honghong's heart.

These little guys can't even do the work of a safe house.

Fortunately, after the blind box machine was opened, the six little ones were able to work in a small space due to their size and intelligence, and they got the job.

But a blind box machine doesn’t need six monsters.

It is said that after being forcibly split into two groups by Qu Ji, the otters no longer loved each other. Instead, they found the three in the shift-changing group displeased in every way. They changed their cute and adorable appearance in front of everyone and often fought in groups in the monster room, causing their black fur to fly everywhere.

Two hours passed quickly.

The hall was emptied.

After Xu Zhiyan made sure that he had explained everything, he stood in front of the door with a not very good expression.

"What if there are no slices?" He didn't want to make the trip in vain.

A low voice mixed with laughter came from the ghost.

"It's okay. The safe house can now log into a four-star instance. Maybe you can go home early in the instance."

Xu Zhiyan raised his eyebrows, thinking of this possibility.

During the conversation, the door opened.

The ghost stared at the black door swallowing up the young man.

In fact, He still has a lot to say.

But ever since the last argument, Xu Zhiyan seemed to be avoiding him intentionally or unintentionally...

But it doesn't matter.

He has plenty of time.

Looking at the empty hall, the ghost suddenly remembered that he had not yet thanked Xu Zhiyan for finding the chair for him.

However, considering the effect the chair showed, He hesitated for a moment and decided that it would be better not to thank him later.

The door to the copy was completely closed.

Back to the fireplace, there was a simple wooden chair next to the ghost.

It is an empty Wanhua Chair.

But at the moment when the ghost's fingertips touched the back of the chair, the entire hall of the safe house underwent earth-shaking changes.

The hot magma engulfed the entire fireplace area. The messy black stones were soaked in the boiling liquid. The black iron throne wrapped in thorns appeared in the center, completely destroying the carpet that Xu Zhiyan had spent a lot of money on. The low table was also swallowed up in an instant...

Hearing the monsters' screams, He had to use His strength to confine His exclusive chair to the area around the fireplace.

Ghosts and gods are rarely sad.

I didn't expect that a decoration could become a weapon of attack in His hands.
