Regardless of what Cang Yu thought, Lin Yue would never tell him that this was a product of the space.
After today's events, the entire building fell silent. The remaining people dared not shout in Building 10, fearing that Lin Yue would come knocking on their door with a gun.
After two more peaceful days, Lin Yue finally couldn't resist the urge to go out.
It's not that she can't let things fall apart, but rather that she wants to go out and find antiques to upgrade her life.
The first two upgrades only increased the space by half, and added a mouth that could spit things out.
The expanded space, after being used to scour the supermarket and the live-streaming building, is already half full. If she wants to store some more items or grow some crops, the space will feel a bit cramped.
She can't just stay at home forever; antiques won't grow legs and come to her on their own, so she has to take the initiative.
There's an antique street in W City that sells all sorts of antiques. She knew about it, but she had never been there. One reason was that she had no interest or experience in this area, and she didn't want to be ripped off with her money. Another reason was that she simply didn't have enough money.
If she could casually throw out a hundred or two hundred million, she would definitely go and buy a couple of items, not caring if they were genuine, just for the fun of spending money.
Lin Yue told Cang Yu in advance that she was going out the next day and asked them to prepare their own food. She went to bed early that night, and before dawn, she packed her things and left.
The hallway was quiet; everyone was probably still asleep.
Reaching the eighth floor, Lin Yue glanced back at the old woman's house. She wasn't planning on causing trouble; with no food and nothing to keep warm, the old woman's death was inevitable.
"Bang!"
Just as Lin Yue was about to descend the stairs from the eighth floor to the seventh floor, the old woman's door suddenly slammed shut. Immediately afterward, the old woman's mentally challenged son was found lying on the ground, his right leg missing, a rag stuffed in his mouth, struggling to crawl out.
The old woman was pulling his left leg from behind, her strength not like someone who hadn't eaten for days, and the way she looked at her mentally challenged son was as if she were looking at a piece of fine meat.
The old woman saw Lin Yue standing at the top of the stairs, turning her head to look at her house. A look of horror flashed in her eyes. She suddenly pulled her mentally challenged son inside and quickly closed the door.
Lin Yue also heard Shang Xiaoshuan's voice.
Lin Yue touched her nose.
Is she really that scary?
But now she feels that she is not the most terrifying; the most terrifying thing is the loss of humanity.
The simple-minded son could tell at a glance what had happened. She didn't want to comment on the old woman's behavior, after all, she hadn't reached that point yet, although she knew very well that even if she did, she wouldn't let herself become like that.
Lin Yue left Building 10, took out her skis, and from Building 11 next door, a figure descended from the sky without making a ripple in the snow.
Immediately afterwards, two people ran out of Building 11, carried the body on the ground, and quickly went into Building 11.
Lin Yue took a deep breath, stepped onto her skis, and soon disappeared from sight.
Her destination today was the antique market. Normally, the antique market is 32 kilometers away from her residential area, in the west of the city, and it takes more than an hour to drive there by city roads.
The traffic is no longer congested, but skiing there will definitely be a tough time. Once outside, Lin Yue found a small alley, made sure no one was around, and took out the snowmobile she had stockpiled.
The snowmobiles she hoarded were the motorcycle-style type, with two skis supporting the front and a studded tire in the back.
Driving the snowmobile, the speed quickly picked up, and on the unobstructed roads, Lin Yue arrived at the antique street more than 30 kilometers away in just one hour.
In other places, the snow had already buried three and a half floors, and this place was no exception. Some houses that still retained their small tiled roofs were no longer visible, and only the four-story wooden buildings that had been built at the back still had some roofs left.
Seeing the layout, Lin Yue quickly locked onto her target.
There are nine four-story buildings along the entire antique street, and Lin Yue decided to visit them all in order.
Lin Yue immediately went to a building at the street corner, searched her space, took out a small cutting machine, placed it on a small generator and fixed it, and began cutting the ice on the roof.
The house has a pretty good structure; despite being covered by such a thick layer of ice, it didn't collapse.
Lin Yue cut out a piece of ice and kicked it down the slope of the roof.
The exposed roof was covered with antique-style glazed tiles, which were not easily split. Lin Yue took out a machete and cleaved it open in just a few strokes. The internal structure was made of steel and was quite dense.
Start the cutting machine again and get to work.
She had heard that the antique street used to be open 24 hours a day, so there must still be people here. As for whether they were corpses or living people, Lin Yue was more inclined to believe they were corpses.
They're buried like this; anyone who could walk would have already left. How could they possibly still be staying in an antique shop that only has inedible antiques?
The cutting machine was very powerful, and since the steel frame wasn't very thick, Lin Yue quickly cut an opening large enough for one person to pass through.
After packing her things, Lin Yue immediately went down to the fourth floor.
There were only three antiques on the fourth floor. Lin Yue looked at them one by one. One of them, a triangular bronze cauldron, made her feel a strong desire for it. Another one, a painting of a Tang Dynasty lady hanging on the shelf, and a piece of blue and white porcelain, made her feel not only averse to them but also repulsed by them.
She really wanted to roll her eyes.
Are the fakes in this antique street really that high-quality?
On the high fourth floor, two out of the three antiques turned out to be fake. It's definitely a place that rips off suckers; they'll cheat whoever they can.
Lin Yue walked towards the bronze cauldron, and just like last time, as soon as her hand touched it, the bronze cauldron disappeared without a trace.
They immediately checked the space and found that it had expanded to the width of five football fields, but the height remained unchanged this time.
Overjoyed, Lin Yue snapped out of her daze and happily continued searching for antiques.
Having heard that the houses in the antique street usually have mezzanine floors or secret rooms, she wasn't in a hurry to go down to the third floor. Instead, she started knocking and banging on the walls of the fourth floor.
After knocking for about twenty minutes, she finally found a hollow brick in the corner. She pressed it down with some force, and a very realistic-looking wall panel on the right side of where she was squatting receded, revealing a safe behind it.
Lin Yue stood by the wall, carefully examining the combination lock on the safe. She touched it, fiddled with it for ten minutes, and finally opened the lock.
There were only two things in the safe: a small, bright green rice bowl and a wooden box containing a ruby hairpin.
She has never known anything about antiques, but she has spatial abilities. For example, she has a very strong feeling about these two items, and her desire for them is even stronger than for the bronze cauldron from before. This means that these two items are genuine.
She had already given up hope of being able to properly admire it, since it would be taken away by the space as soon as she touched it anyway.
Sure enough, the thing disappeared as soon as Lin Yue touched it with her little finger.
As usual, I took another look at the space. This time, the space was two meters higher and the area had doubled in size. The small pool of spiritual spring water had expanded by about six meters, and more water was gushing out from the spring.
