Johnny walked closer and saw that one of the small boxes was a high-rise building, while the other was painted with a vivid white fox. It was obvious that this was Xidan Joy City and Fox Mountain.
"One, two, three, four... three thousand. These three thousand grids should represent three thousand ruins or time-traveling forces similar to Fox Mountain and Xidan Joy City. Only these two are lit up, while the rest are blank. It feels a bit like the fog of war. Perhaps if I go there in person, this scroll will be able to illuminate it."
"That does make sense. If all three thousand of them were forces like Fox Mountain or Xidan Joy City, they wouldn't be able to enter just any place."
"Let's take it one step at a time. Hua Zhibing, what do you think?"
"Master, you are correct. Besides that, do you think this could be a puzzle piece that can be moved?"
"That makes sense. I'll try it." Johnny gently touched the small grid representing Xidan Joy City with his finger, and the small grid immediately began to shake slightly, like ripples on the water.
I tried to move the pattern to other small grids with my hands, but nothing happened. Then, four large characters "World Map" slowly appeared on the top of the scroll.
Hua Zhibing smiled embarrassedly. He guessed wrong. If it was a world map, then it definitely couldn't be moved.
"Mr. Zhang, is this world so big?" From Fox Mountain to Xidan Joy City, Zhang Xiaofan flew on his sword at an extremely fast speed for half an hour, which shows how big the area is.
However, these two places are only the size of a palm on the world map that takes up most of the wall.
"This is good news. Our path forward is clear: to travel across the three thousand worlds and illuminate the world map."
“It is a little difficult, but Chairman Mao said it well: Fighting against the sky is endless joy, fighting against the earth is endless joy, fighting against people is endless joy.
Right now, our most important task is to return to Fox Mountain and tell everyone about this news. We should also gather our thoughts on the possible forces on the map and prepare for the next lighting event."
The appearance of the world map illuminates the direction for Johnny to move forward. Lighting up three thousand small squares means there is still a long way to go, but we should not give up easily. We should be down-to-earth and forge ahead.
Johnny encouraged himself, then said to the two of them, "I'll get ready, and then go back to Fox Mountain with Mr. Zhang."
"I'm here anytime. I got a copy of 'History of Chinese Civilization' from the library and brought it to Xueqi and Xiaobai. Your culture is really rich and colorful, with music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and tea." Zhang Xiaofan's eyes were full of admiration.
"Master, do you need anything else to prepare? Do you need my assistance?"
"Uh, no thanks, I can do it myself."
Johnny felt his heart beating faster and faster. In fact, his so-called preparation was just to take a hot bath.
After being caught in the rain, I felt uncomfortable all over, but I had to make do with it. Now that I had chosen two sets of clean clothes and a luxurious bathroom, of course I had to take a shower and set off refreshed.
There was an electronic scale in the bathroom. Johnny weighed himself and it showed 89 kg. He had indeed lost a little weight. The last time he weighed himself, he was 91 kg.
I took a quick shower, brushed my teeth, shaved, blew my hair, changed into new clothes, and felt refreshed.
He put his cell phone, mask, and bottled water into his backpack, picked up the fried chicken and French fries he had just made, called Hua Zhibing from the president's assistant office, and went down to the 6th floor together to find Zhang Xiaofan in the library.
Zhang Xiaofan was holding a book called "History of Chinese Civilization" in his hand and appeared in front of the two of them in the blink of an eye.
The group of three took the escalator directly to the mall entrance on the first floor.
Suddenly, the alarm sounded in front of the automatic revolving doors on both wings, and the mechanical sound echoed in the empty building.
"An undemagnetized item has been detected. Please proceed to the cashier to settle the payment."
Johnny looked at Hua Zhibing with some suspicion, while Hua Zhibing looked at Johnny with embarrassment. At this moment, both of them were a little confused.
Where did that sound come from? Someone actually had to pay for it. How could this thing even have an owner?
Hua Zhibing said, "Master, I'm connected to all the networks and artificial intelligence in Xidan Joy City, but I haven't found any anomalies."
"There's no one at the checkout counter. How do I pay?" The world is always strange. Johnny has gotten used to it, so he asked loudly into the air.
Shortly after the words fell, as if triggering some keywords, a soft light shot out from the revolving door to the cashier counter. The light slowly changed, gradually outlining a human figure.
A blurry human-shaped ball of light looked at Johnny and Zhang Xiaofan, and they both suddenly felt as if they were being scanned by something.
"Sportswear 258 yuan, fried chicken and fries 64 yuan, sports backpack 125 yuan, two Huawei Mate 20s 8416 yuan, a history of Chinese civilization 75 yuan, and a membership card with a 5% discount, totaling 8491 yuan."
Johnny looked at Hua Zhibing, who shook his head and said, "I don't have any money. No one gives money to artificial intelligence."
Johnny silently handed over his WeChat QR code, and then the balance in his wallet became 1,509 yuan, and the ten thousand yuan was reduced by more than 80% in an instant.
Johnny prepared this ten thousand dollars in order to get his paper published in a magazine. Now he can't use it anyway, so he might as well spend it. At worst, he can spend it in the mall later instead of taking it out.
Johnny scanned the code and was about to leave when the humanoid light ball spoke, "This purchase is 8491 yuan, and you will receive 85 Magic Mall points, valid permanently."
"Let's talk while we walk. I'll check out the Magic Mall on the way."
