Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Building the Sky Dome
Chang Ruijia never expected that the method she came up with to deal with those people when she was forced into a desperate situation would actually make her a fortune.
After she carefully walked around the crowd, the area of the bed under her had almost doubled in size.
If it weren't for the obvious features of a bed, I'm afraid some people would believe it was a small island.
As she happily shuttled through the crowd and reaped the fruits of her victory, Chang Ruijia finally had time to think about a crucial issue.
When she encountered her first accident on the road and almost fell into the ocean, who was it that said "be careful" that suddenly exploded in her ears?
At that time, Chang Ruijia was immersed in thinking about how to get rid of those people, and had no idea who appeared around her.
Judging from how clear the sound was when it rang in her ears, no one else could have done that except the person who rushed to her side.
but!
A person who rushed out with the intention of killing her would speak up to remind her to be careful?
Chang Ruijia doesn't believe that there are such weird things in the world. What's the difference between this and getting an advantage and then acting cute?
But if it really wasn't him, then what kind of person would have the means to do such a thing?
While Chang Ruijia was carefully avoiding those who were still struggling to survive, she also looked tentatively at the onlookers around her.
Those who had already retreated were now filled with horror at the tragic scene that had occurred in the encirclement.
Chang Ruijia shook her head in disappointment.
If they really had such a calm and composed voice, unless they were someone extremely good at disguising their emotions, they would definitely not show the same expression as others.
So, that voice must belong to someone else.
Just when Chang Ruijia had given up hope on the onlookers and was ready to keep this matter as an unsolved case in her heart, a casual glance in the crowd suddenly made her see a familiar figure.
Before, when she faced the first "devouring" reminder to disguise herself, the little sister who had been staring at her from behind.
Noticing that the young lady was still paying attention to her in the crowd, Chang Ruijia tilted her head curiously. She didn't expect that they were so destined to meet. The chaos in the crowd twice couldn't keep them too far apart.
Looking at the delicate features and still dazzling attire of the young lady who already seemed somewhat familiar to her, if the timing was not wrong, she would definitely go up to her and say hello to her.
However, now is not the time for her to reminisce about the past.
Chang Ruijia saw that the young lady noticed her gaze, nodded slightly and smiled at her, then she put her mind back into the current situation.
Although she didn't know what means the person who was able to make the sound ring in her ear used, but since he was able to warn her in such a critical moment, he must have wanted to establish some kind of relationship.
In this case, even if Chang Ruijia doesn't look for him hard now, he will come to her on his own sooner or later.
After all, compared to that person's disappearance, Chang Ruijia's bed can be said to be very conspicuous even in the crowd.
Now she has the most important thing to do.
Looking at the many floating objects that remained in the encirclement and had not been swallowed, there was not much greed in Chang Ruijia's eyes. She was not so hungry as to want to take them all into her pocket.
While she was tirelessly taking advantage of opportunities to expand the scope of her bed, those who were in a panic at the beginning had gradually recovered and there were no more casualties.
Although they didn't understand why such a tragedy suddenly occurred on the seabed, they had begun to find some patterns.
At this moment, they no longer tried to escape from the sea, but quietly retracted all their hands and feet, waiting for the entire sea to calm down again.
The calmer things became, the more disadvantageous it became for Chang Ruijia.
She didn't know how long the state of the monsters in the sea would last. Monsters would not obey orders like humans did. They just acted based on the emotions they were in at the moment.
Chang Ruijia didn't dare to gamble again whether she could provoke the monsters again, make the whole encirclement lively again, and continue to restrain the group's actions for her.
After all, her current position wasn't as carefully planned as before.
If she accidentally gets into trouble, she will be the one who can't leave.
Clever tactics can only be used temporarily; if you attract too much hatred, you will easily stumble. Chang Ruijia looked at the hateful eyes of the people in the encirclement and decisively gave up the floating objects that she could have captured, and turned to paddle in the direction she had planned.
She had to hurry and get away from this place before things got out of control again.
Moreover, her now much larger bed moved again, and the resistance it brought was much greater than before.
It would be a bit too much to ask her arm, which had been used for a day, to regain its previous speed. There must be no more obstacles in front of her.
Time is short and the task is heavy, so the fewer blind obstacles on the road the better.
So, the several kitchen knives that Chang Ruijia had put into the mall warehouse were once again placed in the most conspicuous position on the bed.
Compared to the group of brave people who chased her across the entire sea, perhaps the threat posed by the kitchen knife was nothing.
But for those who, like Chang Ruijia before, are not mentally prepared for murder and robbery, a row of cold kitchen knives is enough to overwhelm them psychologically.
As expected, seeing the kitchen knives arranged in a row by Chang Ruijia, those who had seen them from a distance wished they could not even get close to them, and just ran away to avoid the area where she might pass.
In order to escape the relentless pursuit of the group of people before, Chang Ruijia deliberately circled several times on the sea to ensure that the direction in which she finally disappeared from their sight was not the direction she wanted to go in the end.
The hatred has been aroused, and if we are caught up, it will be more trouble than gain.
The road ahead was smooth. Chang Ruijia dragged her bed, which was now much more difficult to paddle, and finally arrived at an uninhabited sea area before night fell again.
Looking at the empty sea, Chang Ruijia nodded with satisfaction.
Now, even if that group of people really caught up with her, in the dark night, she only needed to find a direction to escape without worrying about whether innocent people would be involved.
After nightfall, Chang Ruijia finally changed direction again and created a distance between them. After ensuring that those people would not find her before tomorrow, she lay down on the bed peacefully, enjoying a moment of tranquility.
When night falls, she can finally stop worrying about accidentally falling into the sea due to the chaos and losing her life before she even has time to react.
That night, Chang Ruijia rarely thought about anything else. She just lay peacefully on her big bed and had an unprecedented good sleep.
I don’t know if the bed’s fatigue-relieving function works even when I’m sleeping.
Early the next morning, when Chang Ruijia was awakened by the sunlight rising from the sea, she felt her whole body was filled with energy.
Although she had been able to relieve her physical fatigue while staying up all night in the past few days thanks to the bed's function, there is still a difference between physical relaxation and the comfort of body and mind.
Without the sense of urgency in her body and mind, Chang Ruijia naturally stayed in bed for a few minutes while the warm sun was shining on her butt, enjoying an unprecedented sense of psychological security.
It was not until the sun's rays began to become increasingly scorching that Chang Ruijia finally couldn't help but jump out of her bed.
Unexpectedly, the moment Chang Ruijia opened her eyes comfortably in the sunshine, she was almost frightened by the whole scene in front of her.
Although she admitted that her bed was a little messy before coming into this world, it was actually nothing considering the bed had increased in size to four meters last night.
But who could explain to her why, after waking up, her four-meter-long bed was still so messy, with so many things that didn't belong to her?!
A large green drink with no name, a few fresh mangoes, and a completely manual razor...
Carefully counting these things that did not belong on her bed, Chang Ruijia felt that the more she counted, the stronger the inexplicable sense of familiarity became.
It was not until she saw a handheld game console dug out from the pile of junk that Chang Ruijia suddenly realized that some of these things seemed to be the disappearing floating objects she had obtained when she was picking up bargains in the encirclement yesterday.
Looking at the item that really appeared in her hand at this moment, Chang Ruijia suddenly had a bold guess.
She knew before that when night falls every day, everyone will harvest some related items from the floating objects beneath them.
This situation led to the emergence of barter.
But is it possible that after swallowing up other people's floating objects, it will also swallow up other people's ability to obtain items every night?
Chang Ruijia had never thought about such a thing before. After all, before she actually attacked others yesterday afternoon, she had never considered strengthening herself at the cost of other people's lives.
But now, looking at the thing that suddenly appeared on her bed, Chang Ruijia thought that the correct answer was already in front of her.
Only then did she suddenly understand why a temptation that would only expand the area of the floating object by a few centimeters could attract so many people to kill each other.
Compared to the uncertainty of exchanging with each other every day, isn’t it a one-time solution, killing two birds with one stone, to just let others use the items for exchange appear in your own hands?
The world is really dangerous.
Chang Ruijia lamented the impermanence of the world. Who could have known that sometimes what you thought was a gift from God might become something that would make you lose your life?
Looking at the things that almost filled up half of the bed, Chang Ruijia sighed, but she still gladly accepted this unexpected surprise.
Judging from the number of things placed in front of him, he could tell how much sin those people who Chang Ruijia took advantage of yesterday had committed.
From this perspective, Chang Ruijia's actions can be regarded as doing justice for the people, so she doesn't feel much guilt.
But in fact, these things did not have much appeal to her. Chang Ruijia just glanced at them and put them aside, her attention attracted by another thing.
Before she fell asleep peacefully last night, she actually did one extra thing out of worry.
Opening the warehouse of the system mall, Chang Ruijia almost smiled when she saw the special price curtain inside.
When she attracted the hatred of those unknown creatures in the sea, she gained a lot in the true sense, in addition to finally getting rid of their pursuit.
Under the sea where no one noticed, the kitchen knife in her hand caused a lot of damage to the monsters, otherwise she would not have been so generous as to exchange for several kitchen knives and rush out of the encirclement.
Last night before going to bed, although her consciousness had begun to blur after she relaxed, she still struggled to open the special items in the mall and exchanged for the skylight.
After all, there was no sign of the disappearance of the discounted kitchen knife and the appearance of the sky curtain. If the sky curtain, which she had not exchanged for tomorrow, also disappeared from the system, she would have nowhere to cry.
Looking at the bright sunshine on the sea and the sky in her hand without any unexpected appearance, Chang Ruijia was in a super happy mood.
She had never imagined that the method she came up with in a hurry to protect herself would bring her so many benefits now.
The sun is shining brightly now, and she doesn't have to worry about attracting attention in the crowd, so she can just put up the canopy!
Besides, how can you not show off something you have achieved through your own efforts?
In fact, it was a whole huge canopy, but after Chang Ruijia took it out from the commodity warehouse, it could just cover most of the expanded bed.
But Chang Ruijia was already very satisfied with the effect.
Following the installation instructions on the product details page, Chang Ruijia worked hard and finally managed to install the canopy on the bed.
She never expected that the canopy that she had seen people camping outdoors build as easily as a toy before going to bed every day would be like water and fire incompatible in her hands, and she had to work very hard to get a prototype of it.
But it may also have a lot to do with the built environment.
It took Chang Ruijia a long time to complete the instructions of inserting the canopy poles into the soil, tightening the wind ropes tightly and fixing them with ground nails.
In the end, Chang Ruijia reluctantly found a piece of clothing that she rarely wore on the bed, tore it into strips, and tied the canopy poles to the hollow decorations around the bed, and finally the canopy was erected.
Chang Ruijia didn't use things like ground nails. She simply tied the wind ropes to the four corners of the bed, tightened them to make sure they wouldn't be pulled apart, and that was it.
After all, for her now, the bed is her only safe haven. If the time comes when she can't even keep her bed, then it doesn't matter whether there is a canopy or not.
After fixing the canopy on the bed, Chang Ruijia breathed a sigh of relief as she watched the sun finally disappear from her sight.
It is indeed a special product that requires 3 points of third-level exchange privileges. It is indeed very useful.
Finally, a canopy was added to her bed. At this moment, Chang Ruijia's bed finally felt like it could serve as a shelter from wind and rain on the sea.
The canopy was set up, but Chang Ruijia didn't completely relax on the bed and let herself collapse back onto the bed.
The things that appeared in my dream last night are still scattered on the bed. If I don’t sort them out, they will definitely interfere with my daily life.
Furthermore, Chang Ruijia also needs to use this time to have a certain understanding of all her things. Otherwise, those things will appear on the bed day after day, and sooner or later Chang Ruijia will forget that this is actually a bed in the "garbage dump".
Sitting cross-legged on the bed, Chang Ruijia began to count the items that appeared in the pile, and classified them one by one according to their current usefulness to her.
According to the current timeliness for her, Chang Ruijia put the mango she found first into the pile of items that must be eaten as soon as possible.
Chang Ruijia also wanted to thank that person. The mangoes she got from him were just small golden Taiwanese mangoes. If they were the kind of green mangoes that weighed more than one kilogram each, she would really have a headache.
There is a big difference between eating mangoes just for the sake of freshness and eating mangoes every day without getting tired of it.
What's more, Chang Ruijia felt like she had poked a hole in the fruit tree.
Look at the bananas, lychees, grapes... and even a small watermelon that were pulled out from that pile of inexplicable things!
If she hadn't left the crowd now, she felt that she could open a fruit shop!
Peeling a banana and putting it in her mouth, chewing it slowly, Chang Ruijia began to take care of those things that did not need to be dealt with immediately.
Chang Ruijia can tolerate the appearance of fresh fruits every day. After all, it improves the quality of her life and allows her to satisfy her appetite at any time.
But what about things like razors and game consoles?!
Chang Ruijia looked at the razor, game console and sneakers in her hands, which were of no use to her now, and she was in a state of extreme annoyance.
Thinking about how they would appear on her bed every day, Chang Ruijia always felt that her life as the director of a garbage factory was just around the corner.
Could she really throw all those things into the sea every day?
Not to mention whether this practice will damage the current marine environment, but if things are thrown into the sea every day, if she encounters danger one day, she will probably have to dig a path out of the ocean to escape.
For a moment, Chang Ruijia suddenly had a little doubt about her decision to leave the crowd.
But Chang Ruijia is not the kind of person who would regret the decisions he made.
Even if she thought about it, she knew that even in the crowd, it was impossible for all the game consoles that appeared every day to be successfully redeemed. Sooner or later, she would still face such a situation.
It's okay to let it go. Chang Ruijia tried hard to imagine herself as a flower and comforted herself.
What she faces is definitely what other people face as well, so sooner or later there will be a solution to the problem.
After eating all the fruits on the bed, Chang Ruijia still rubbed her stomach somewhat dissatisfied. Her stomach, which had not eaten for almost a day and a night, finally felt a little hungry at this moment.
Without the covetousness of the people around her, Chang Ruijia directly and openly exchanged the food she urgently needed from the system mall.
She was even generous in using her third-level authority and redeemed many new things. Compared to the days of eating steamed buns with pickled mustard greens a few days ago, she was much happier.
Even so, looking at the complete set of dishes including main courses and fruits, Chang Ruijia still nodded reluctantly, not quite satisfied.
It was just okay, barely enough for her current life. As long as she continued to think about upgrading the permissions of the system mall, sooner or later, even the most delicious food would be no problem for her!
If other people living on the sea heard Chang Ruijia's shameless words at this time, they would probably drool on the sea.
It was still a problem for them to exchange something to fill their stomachs at this moment, but this person actually started to imagine birds and beasts, delicacies from mountains and seas. It was so hateful!
However, Chang Ruijia doesn't care about those things. Now he can finally start living his wonderful life openly.
