67 The Eighth Shop
◎The small stuff is pretty cool!◎
Liu Sheng saw Lu Yao coming out of the shop, his eyes slightly surprised.
Lu Yao came out and made way for him: "You are a new customer, why don't you come in?"
Liu Sheng: "Do you know me?"
Lu Yao: "Don't you remember? We met at the entrance of Tianxiang Tower."
Liu Sheng had not recognized her before.
Lu Yao returned to the shop from Liuxian City. The clothes that Wuling had transformed for her disappeared, and her aura also changed.
When they came out of Tianxiang Tower, Lu Yao wore a veil again.
Liu Sheng did not see Lu Yao's true face. He was just surprised that someone could come out of such a place full of evil spirits.
When Lu Yao mentioned Tianxiang Tower, Liu Sheng finally reacted: "Are you the woman who picked up the snake bone bracelet?"
Lu Yao smiled and nodded.
Liusheng didn't expect to meet Luyao so soon, and he became embarrassed: "After you left, I picked up a scroll. Someone said it was a special scroll that was fixed to the Internet cafe, and I just used it."
Liusheng didn't sell the teleportation scroll to the monster he met in the alley, and returned to his residence alone, but he kept thinking about the Internet cafe that the monster mentioned.
In the end, he couldn't overcome his inner demon, so he took out the scroll from his Qiankun bag and teleported it directly.
Luyao didn't lose anything, so it was probably Wuling's scroll.
Lu Yao: "Nothing, the transmission scroll is to facilitate customers to come to the Internet cafe. The one you picked up was probably left by my friend. I will give him another one later."
Liu Sheng felt that the tone of the woman in front of him was peaceful and friendly, which he rarely encountered, and he didn't know how to respond.
Lu Yao: "Since this is your first time here, the store is holding an opening reward event. Get a coupon and use the Internet for free for three days."
She said and greeted the door: "Xiao Zhong, give a coupon to the new customer. It's his first time here, you take care of him."
Lu Yao was busy preparing the magic barrier for the whole afternoon. After dinner, Zhong Lianjia and Cheng Ye changed shifts.
The night gradually enveloped Buxian Mountain. Some customers left the Internet cafe and returned to their caves to practice, or found a place near the Internet cafe to sit quietly and absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Liusheng arrived at the right time, and there was an empty seat in the hall.
Zhong Lianjia handed Liusheng a coupon and took it back, and led him to his seat with his registration number.
Liusheng found that the waiter was also a human, and suddenly realized: "Is this a human shop?"
It can only be said that the environment has a terrible impact on people. In just a few days, Zhong Lianjia has become accustomed to the occasional second-year words of the guests, and nodded numbly: "Yes, the one who greeted you at the door just now is our boss."
You...
Liusheng was flattered.
Whether in the city controlled by the demons or the city of the human race, Liusheng has never been honored like this.
After a brief surprise, Liusheng reacted: "That young woman is the boss here?"
Zhong Lianjia nodded.
This demon guest seemed a little dazed.
Liuxian City was originally a city of the human race. It was only gradually incorporated into the territory of the demon race more than two hundred years ago. There are still many humans in the city today.
However, the attitude of those humans in the city towards the demon race is always fearful and contemptuous.
The so-called symbiosis between humans and demons is just an illusion.
The spiritual energy of Buxian Mountain is thin. There is neither a demon king nor a large sect to suppress it.
This small shop in the human world does business with the demon race, and the boss is a human woman.
Liusheng just felt strange.
Zhong Lianjia carefully guided the guests as newcomers.
Liusheng was quite smart and learned quickly.
Like most customers who came to the Internet cafe for the first time, Liusheng's online surfing enlightenment "teacher" was also a stand-alone game.
Liusheng played a training game, which started to train the character from childhood.
By constantly arranging learning courses and playing with the characters, the character's attribute values can be increased.
When the character is 18 years old, he will leave home as an adult.
Then the character's career and emotional ending will be revealed.
Liusheng does not check the guide, and arranges the character's courses and activities completely based on his feelings and preferences.
He likes to observe the character's attributes grow through daily learning, but for some reason, the characters he cultivated later did not end up very well.

Harold got out of school from Dragon Valley in the afternoon and immediately went to Buxian Mountain to help Luyao set up the barrier.
One person and one dragon buried the main magic stone in four directions respectively, and then used fine magic sand to draw a formation to construct a complex and unexpectedly low-key magic barrier.
In the night, the demons hid in the dark and watched.
"What kind of magic is this? Why is it neither demonic nor evil, nor like those stinky monks?" A demon couldn't help asking.
Lu Yao: "My magic is useful, no need to get tangled up."
Harold snorted arrogantly.
The demons were a little curious. The teleportation array and the gate protection array in the Internet cafe were different from what they usually saw.
Lu Yao didn't want to reveal more, so they didn't ask any more questions. Anyway, it was fun.
After making sure that the magic barrier was activated normally, Lu Yao and Harold prepared to go back to the store.
A demon suddenly said: "There is a hole under the roots of the Bodhi tree, and magic energy is leaking out."
The speaker was a mushroom demon, who liked to stay in damp and rotten places at night.
There were dead leaves and rotten grass at the roots of the dead Bodhi tree. It was damp and dark, and there was residual spiritual energy. The mushroom demon liked it very much.
He moved because a crack appeared under the tree roots recently.
Lu Yao and Harold followed the mushroom demon to the back of the Internet cafe and found the crack under the tree roots.
A group of demon cultivators came over to watch the excitement.
"Purple demonic energy, this is a passage secretly opened by the demon cultivators."
"I'm afraid it's to absorb evil power from the human world."
"The demon realm often has narrow cracks leading to the human world. The human race is full of seven emotions and six desires. As long as they are loose, the demon cultivators will find a loophole."
The monsters talked about the demons, their words and eyes were full of disgust and contempt.
Lu Yao did not understand the grudges between the demons and the monsters. The monsters thought the demons were not easy to mess with, but they might be a new market for Internet cafes.
Lu Yao asked, "Are there any cities of the demons in the human world?"
The demon cultivator shook his head and said, "Five hundred years ago, the new Demon Lord of the demons took over the throne and led all the demons to withdraw from the human world, and closed all the gates from the demon realm to the human world. Since then, we have rarely heard from them. Occasionally, we encounter such rifts in the demon realm in the human world, but we have not seen the demons invade on a large scale."
Lu Yao: "He can lead the demons to withdraw from the human world right after taking over the throne. This Demon Lord seems to be very powerful?"
The monsters actually love gossip.
But in the past, most of them were obsessed with cultivation. When they met each other, they would fight and drink, and think about how to improve their cultivation. There was no such atmosphere.
The environment of the Internet cafe and the chatty human clerks gradually aroused the interest of the little demons in gossiping. Just like in the human world, the little demons also liked to gossip about big demons and strong people.
A pine spirit that had been practicing for a thousand years in the forest could not help but speak out: "The current Lord of the Demon Realm is a natural Shura, lonely and heartless, with great magic power. I'm afraid there are few opponents in the six realms." Lu
Yao: "I wonder who is more powerful, the Demon King or the Demon Lord?"
The pine spirit flicked its branches lightly, and its tone suddenly became official: "The Demon King has been on the throne for less than three hundred years, but he is also the strongest in the demon world in the past ten thousand years. How can the mere Demon Lord compare with the Demon King?"
"Put your mother's P! Stinky demon clan, stop flattering yourself! Lord Demon Lord, you are far better than the sentimental Demon King!!!"
In the night, a violent voice suddenly exploded, shocking the demons and the man and the dragon to bow their heads.
At the root of the Bodhi tree, in the crack of the Demon Realm, a strange black creature appeared at some point.
Its two tiny claws scratched the edge of the crack, its red pupils were round, and it was still full of momentum and showed no fear in the face of dozens of gazes.
Lu Yao blinked and asked softly: "Were you talking just now?"
"It was me, the young master, what's wrong? Do you have any opinions?"
The little thing is quite arrogant!
A demon next to it said: "Demon seed, this is a demon seed! It has red eyes, I'm afraid it is the companion of the Demon Lord."
Demon seeds are a kind of creatures that are only born in the Demon Realm. They are born in a black mass, with black eyes, skin, and even blood.
They like to eat demonic energy and like to follow the strong.
Demon seeds can form a pact with the demon clan, and can become companions or transform into weapons for the pact master to drive.
The so-called companions are equivalent to spiritual pets in the world of cultivation.
I heard that the Demon King was born with a pair of magic pupils, and the eyeballs were as red as blood. When a
demon species forms a pact with the Demon King, the mark of the master will appear on its body.
This little demon species has a pair of blood-red pupils, which easily reminds people of the Lord of the Demon Realm.
A demon retorted: "Can't all demons open their magic pupils after practicing to a certain level? It cannot be determined that the master of this little demon species is the Demon King."
The Green Pine Spirit was shut up for a while by the demon species, and at this time he couldn't help but say: "Yes, it may not be the companion of the Demon King."
Lu Yao stretched out his hand and pinched the little black group's cheek: "Little guy, you sneaked into the human world, what bad things do you want to do?"
The little black group was grabbed and screamed: "You stinky woman, let me go!"
"Bang——"
The little black group was punched and shrank back to the narrow gap of the Demon Realm.
"Sorry, it's a conditioned reflex." Harold shook his fist, and then he easily pinched and smoothed the cracked Demon Realm crack with two fingers, "The crack is also blocked, that guy can't get through, it's okay."
The monsters suddenly fell silent.
I always knew that the boy who followed the human shop owner was a monster, but I didn't expect him to be so strong.
Things like spatial cracks can be repaired by monster cultivators with the help of magic tools, but it is impossible to be so casual.
After setting up the barrier, repairing the Demon Realm crack, and listening to anecdotes about the demons, and unexpectedly seeing demon creatures, Lu Yao was satisfied and returned to the store with Harold.
Internet cafes do less business at night. Monsters are naturally free and uninhibited, unlike humans who follow rules, but they never slack off in their cultivation.
The big monsters either returned to their caves or were absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the woods and wilds.
The lobby of the Internet cafe was full of little monsters, and there were still a few empty seats.
Liusheng stood out among the little monsters.
He sat upright, his eyes focused, and every time he clicked the mouse, he seemed to be expecting something.
Lu Yao walked behind Liusheng.
He was playing a computer game with a fairy-hero background. This game had a gameplay of collecting materials and refining weapons.
Liusheng collected some spirit stone materials and was gambling on his luck.
Unfortunately, the materials in the warehouse were used up, and he was unable to smash out a decent piece of equipment.
Liusheng let go of the mouse and slumped his shoulders in frustration.
Lu Yao couldn't help shaking his head.
New players who don't spend any money, be strong.
Playing probability games is like cultivating immortals, where millions of people use their time and experience to gamble on a one in ten thousand chance.
It's just that the probability of the game can be manually adjusted, and players can give up at any time.
The road to cultivating immortals is long and arduous.
Liusheng sat there in a daze for a while, then sat up again, exited the PC game, opened the 6399 mini-game again, and started playing the mini-game of the grandfather digging for gold.
Cheng Ye came from the office and saw Lu Yao in the lobby, and handed her a tablet directly.
"Why haven't you rested yet?" Lu Yao took the tablet, lowered his head and clicked it.
Alfred read a book all afternoon, and in the evening he spit out the first draft model of the demon keyboard.
After Cheng Ye and Zhong Lianjia changed shifts, they had nothing to do in their temporary dormitory, so they simply started to modify the keyboard.
He made some changes to Alfred's drawings, but Cheng Ye knew very little about the demon race, so he wanted Lu Yao to take a look before making a decision.
Lu Yao held the tablet and looked at the drawings, but she couldn't see anything wrong.
She was still used to practical operations, testing, and then debugging. Lu
Yao: "Send me the drawings, and I'll make a real one tonight."
Cheng Ye: "No need to contact the factory, we can do it ourselves?"
He arrived late and had not seen the owner's ability to use it.
Lu Yao: "Yes. Let Xiao Zhong disassemble the keyboard for me later, and it should be ready tomorrow morning. As for the input method plug-in, you and Qingyan should take care of it. I will ask Alfred to pack up the text materials of the demon clan and the cultivation world and send them to you later."
Liusheng inadvertently heard the conversation between the two, and his hands gradually slowed down.
After Cheng Ye left, Lu Yao sat behind the bar with the drawings, ready to work all night.
Solving the keyboard problem will make the expansion of Internet cafes meaningful.
By then, games, software chats, and real-time drama chasing may usher in a new wave of craze.
The Internet ecosystem focuses on a virtual communication, and the keyboard is a weapon.
It's boring if you can't communicate.
Lu Yao disassembled an unused keyboard and carefully understood its structure and parts.
Zhong Lianjia turned around and pulled Lu Yao's clothes.
Lu Yao raised her head.
Zhong Lianjia motioned her to look to the side.
Liu Sheng had been standing outside the bar, staring intently at the broken keyboard in Lu Yao's hand.
Lu Yao waved at him: "I heard that you are an instrument refiner?"
Liu Sheng came back to his senses and realized that the other party was talking to him. He lowered his head timidly: "What I made is not good."
Lu Yao: "That bone bracelet is pretty good, the shape is very beautiful, it caught my attention at once. I didn't expect there is a mechanism, your idea is very interesting."
Liu Sheng lowered his eyelids and shook his head embarrassedly.
This human is really kind.
Lu Yao picked up the blueprint of the monster keyboard and handed it over: "My colleagues and I are researching how to make a keyboard for the monsters, but we still don't know much about the monsters. Can you help me look at this blueprint?"
Liu Sheng raised his head abruptly, his amber eyes gleaming with light: "...Can I?"
Lu Yao nodded affirmatively: "Of course I can."
Lu Yao can use magic to make objects, and after receiving the blessing of the goddess Fula, she has also made many things by herself.
Judging from the perspective of a person who is not an expert in refining tools but can make some things, she thinks Liu Sheng's level of refining tools is not bad.
At least he can serve as a consultant for the monsters and help check whether the basic configuration of the monster keyboard is reasonable.
Zhong Lianjia was guarding the bar, listening to the owner and the little monster discussing the refining of the keyboard seriously.
The night was boring, and he didn't want to play games, so he went to the intranet group to chat.
[Super Space Internet Cafe - Zhong Lianjia: The owner is discussing the feasibility of refining keyboards with the demon clan weapon maker. ]
[Furry Shop - Zhou Su: So soon, there are demon clan colleagues? ]
[Childhood Tutorial Center - Bai Yi: Waiting for a new colleague to join. ]
[Hot Spring Hotel - Ji Qingyan: So soon? Then can we expect a wave of demon clan colleagues to buy on our behalf? ]
[Super Space Cinema - Gao Meng: The rich woman's wallet, my unattainable dream! ]
[Furry Shop - Tears: Delicious!!! ]
...
Liuxian City, the city.
It was dawn, and the two guards guarding the gate of the outer courtyard were chatting.
"There's still a quarter of an hour before the rotation, and we finally made it to dawn."
"A group of little sparrow spirits down there sent me two teleportation scrolls. Let's go out together later?"
"Where are we going?"
"Where else could it be? Buxian Mountain. Isn't there a store there recently? Haven't you heard about it?"
"It's... it's the place called... Internet cafe?"
"Yes, it's an Internet cafe. I heard that you can't find the location without special scrolls, so it's so mysterious."
"I've heard about it too. The store looks inconspicuous, but it costs more spirit stones than elixirs and talismans. The owner is a human woman."
The guard at the beginning said, "I have a coupon. The little sparrow spirits revealed that there will be an event recently. Use the coupon to surf the Internet for free for three days without spending spirit stones."
"Those little sparrow spirits can't even transform, where did they get these things?"
"They live in Buxian Mountain. Maybe they picked them up."
…
Ji Chu sat by the waterside pavilion, holding fish food in his hand.
He had been drinking with Wu Ling last night.
They drank until dawn, Wu Ling was drunk in the room, but Ji Chu was not drunk.
Before the morning mist had dissipated, he got up and went out to feed the fish.
He had never expected to hear such an interesting story.
