Looking at the closed door, Su Luo shook his head.
He had seen drunkards before, but this was the first time he had met a guy who thought he was Qin Shi Huang.
Sighing depressedly, he picked up the jade pendant beside him.
It's made of white jade and feels soft to the touch. It looks like it should be of good quality. The carvings on it are lifelike. I estimate it should be easy to sell for a few hundred dollars.
Thinking of this, Su Luo threw the jade pendant onto the bar.
Before returning to his seat, he looked at the envelope he had thrown there.
After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and pulled out the letter, then took a deep breath and spread it out in front of him.
The thin piece of letter paper was covered with dense black handwriting.
Su Luo read it word by word.
The tension on his face gradually turned into solemnity, and after a moment he sneered, with a mocking look at the corners of his mouth.
"You took me for a fool and left me this tavern that connects to another world..."
As Su Luo was thinking this, he suddenly saw the letter paper in his hand spontaneously catch fire.
The bright yellow flame floated unsteadily, and in an instant it burned most of the letter paper, all the way to Su Luo's fingertips.
He stared in amazement as the flames passed through his fingers, turning the letter in his hand into complete ash.
During this period, he didn't even feel a trace of burning sensation.
The gray powder dissipated in the air, and it took Su Luo a long time to come back to his senses.
"It's an illusion, it must be an illusion!" He slapped his head hard.
But he couldn't take his eyes off the crystal ball in the middle of the bar.
According to the letter left by the adoptive parents, they had been working for the gods and were in an extremely dangerous situation, so they were unable to recognize him.
This tavern was the result of their planning over countless years. It was built by stealing the authority of the gods. As long as it is activated with blood, they can completely control this place and possess power comparable to that of the gods.
Thinking of the strangely burning letter, Su Luo fell into deep doubt at this moment.
Could it be that all this was true? His parents had been watching over him, even getting him this life-changing gift, and then leaving to seek refuge?
"It's so absurd, even novels don't dare to write like this!"
Su Luo shook his head to himself, but his hands' movements were very honest.
He raised the back of his hand, stared at the scab left over from an accidental injury a few days ago, and used his other hand to pick it off, and dark red blood immediately oozed out.
Su Luo was stunned for two seconds, then raised his hand and smeared the blood on the crystal.
The blood stained the crystal ball and strangely seeped into it bit by bit.
Su Luo's breathing became uncontrollably rapid.
A moment later, a cold electronic sound rang out.
[Authentication passed... Spacetime Tavern binding completed.]
A curtain of light appeared in his field of vision at the same time.
「Name: Spacetime Tavern」
「Attached modules: None」
"Level: 1 (0/100000)"
「Function: Brewing (0/10)」
"Winemaking materials: None"
"Connected World: Daqin"
Every time Su Luo read a line of words, specific information about it automatically appeared in his mind.
After a while, he narrowed his eyes and digested the information.
Even at this moment, he still couldn't shake off the shock in his heart.
All this is actually true!
This space-time tavern is actually connected to Daqin!
So, the drunkard just now was really Qin Shi Huang?
Su Luo tried hard to calm his turbulent emotions, but his right hand subconsciously grabbed the jade pendant.
Qin Shihuang's jade pendant, let alone hundreds of dollars, even millions are far from enough to measure its value.
Of course , he didn't plan to sell the jade pendant.
It is much more meaningful to keep this kind of treasure with special meaning as a souvenir than to sell it.
Su Luo stood up and paced back and forth behind the bar, imagining his future life.
After a moment, he calmed down completely and began to study the tavern carefully.
"Module loaded... Can new functions be added as the tavern level increases?"
“Level experience is positively correlated with turnover…”
"The connected plane shows Daqin, can it be connected to other worlds?"
The doubt in his mind flashed away, and Su Luo looked carefully at other contents.
"The turnover is calculated in Spacetime Coins, which are issued by the tavern and valued based on the items provided by the guests, including gold, silver, and other external objects, as well as knowledge, etc."
Su Luo nodded slightly.
After seeing the "wine-making" function clearly, he showed interest again.
The knowledge acquired from the guests can be turned into wine-making materials, and the tavern can use it to brew ten glasses of wine every day.
Thinking of this, Su Luo couldn't help but look at the ten crystal glasses behind the bar.
He now finally understood why those cups could not be taken down.
…
In the following days, Su Luo studied the functions of the space-time tavern while purchasing things, and spent all the little savings he earned from odd jobs.
However, Qin Shihuang never appeared again.
Everything seemed to be just his illusion.
Seven days passed in a flash.
Su Luo sat at the bar, eating instant noodles with a sad face.
For three consecutive days, Qin Shihuang never stepped into the tavern again. He thought the other party had passed away.
However, due to the rules of the Space-Time Tavern, even if he stepped out of the door, he could not reach another world.
Just when Su Luo thought that the opportunity to make a fortune was about to slip away from him, a sound suddenly came from the door.
He looked up immediately.
The door slowly opened, and a glimpse of white appeared in the field of vision.
As a pair of feet stepped into the door, the man's entire figure was completely exposed in front of Su Luo.
When Su Luo saw that it was a girl in white with a stern face, he was stunned.
The girl had skin as white as cream and a stunning appearance. If she hadn't been wearing a white dress that looked really shabby, Su Luo would have thought she was Qin Shi Huang's concubine.
However, with such appearance, he is probably not an ordinary person in the Qin Empire.
Could it be that she is a princess in distress who carries the royal blood of six nations?
A series of thoughts flashed through Su Luo's mind. He put down the instant noodles in his hand, stood up and said with a smile: "Welcome to the Linkong Tavern."
"Spacetime Tavern?" The girl repeated Su Luo's words and asked, "Where is this place?"
Sure enough, he is not from Earth! Seeing the other party's reaction, Su Luo was secretly delighted, and then explained a few words according to the words he had prepared earlier.
As he spoke, he noticed that the girl's eyes occasionally looked at the instant noodles in front of him.
Although the girl's actions were very subtle, the act of swallowing her saliva did not escape Su Luo's notice, especially the rumbling sound from her stomach, which almost made Su Luo laugh.
The girl seemed to realize that something was wrong and turned her head to look away, but her expression remained calm.
Su Luo coughed lightly and invited, "Why don't you sit down and eat something first."
The girl sat silently on a chair and reached out to touch the corner of the table.
Although Su Luo had just told her a lot, her mind was still full of doubts.
She thought to herself that she was familiar with the ancient tomb, but shouldn't this door also be a cold tomb? When did it become such a strange tavern? The tables and chairs here were so gorgeous that she was secretly shocked.
Could it be that this guy was right and this was actually another world? Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at the strange young man.
In her vision, the young man took out an exquisite cylindrical object, tore it apart with a tearing sound, then took out some strange things and added them, and finally filled it with water using something that looked like a kettle...
