Chapter 793 A Shocking Event, the Lucky Egg (2/2)



Lu Xingchen: "Acting?"

Fat Old Man #2: "Yes, yes, auction off the crane."

Lu Xingchen smiled and said, "Masters, I won't bother you tomorrow."

Today, the people who rented cranes were flying around in the sky, attracting the attention of countless NPCs. Many people were planning to bid heavily tomorrow to get the right to use the cranes.

Lu Xingchen estimated that he wouldn't need to act at all tomorrow.

The four fat old men were very disappointed and a little anxious at the same time.

They knew better than Lu Xingchen that tomorrow's price would definitely be higher than today's, perhaps even significantly higher.

They might not be able to win the bid if the auction is held tomorrow...

Lu Xingchen noticed their anxiety and smiled slightly: "However, since the four masters are friends of Master Babu, they will naturally receive a discount. For the next few days, I will still offer you today's price."

"Really?" The old men were overjoyed.

Master Babu was extremely pleased with himself: "See that? See that? Isn't Little Lu a good friend?"

Master Babu jumped down and patted Lu Xingchen on the shoulder: "Not bad, not bad, Xiao Lu, I will give you a treasure after the market is over!"

Lu Xingchen smelled a strange odor.

She turned her head and saw a small ornament hanging from Master Babu's waist.

The scent is emanating from the jewelry.

It was a pendant with an egg-shaped object hanging from a shiny hook, with clusters of yellow flowers painted on it.

She looks pretty, but not in an eye-catching way; she's easily overlooked.

Lu Xingchen glanced at it a couple more times.

Master Babu doesn't have this on his waist.

Lu Xingchen pointed and asked, "Master, what is this?"

Master Babu took off the ornament and said proudly, "Isn't it beautiful? A lucky egg! Gao Dafu's shop has one like this, and I think it's pretty good, so I'm coming over."

Lu Xingchen took it and smelled it. The smell was a bit strange, maybe it was the smell of paint?

She casually returned it to Master Babu.

After exchanging a few pleasantries with Master Babu, Lu Xingchen left.

After wandering around for a while, she ended up at the food street.

On the food street, every vendor was beaming with pride, loudly hawking their wares, and there were long lines in front of each stall.

Lu Xingchen observed carefully and found ornaments similar to those of Master Babu in several shops. Some of these ornaments were hung at the entrance of the shops, some were thrown on the tables, and some were hung on the waist.

She looked around and found five or six.

This is just a trivial matter.

Lu Xingchen simply kept it in mind, then went to several more stalls, and finally saw Bubu and Lanlan enjoying their meal at one of them.

The two of them ate for an unknown amount of time.

Lanlan's eyes were practically glued to the food, and Bubu was trying to calm her down: "Alright, alright, there are still several days to go, today is enough."

Lanlan: "Hiccup, okay, let's go for a drink!"

As Bubu paid and was about to leave, the shopkeeper came over, tied a pendant to Lanlan's ankle, and said, "Lanlan, didn't you like this lucky egg? It's yours!"

Lanlan: "Hiccup, thank you!"

Lanlan perched on Bubu's shoulder and left with the lucky egg.

Lu Xingchen stared at the lucky egg for a while, then asked the shopkeeper, "Where did this come from?"

The shop owner, who was from District 33 and knew Lu Xingchen, immediately said, "Oh? This was a gift from someone. They said it can bring good fortune, and many merchants have received it."

Lu Xingchen: Hmm?

Can a drawn egg really bring good fortune?

It must be a lie!

But, it's free? That doesn't seem right!

She still felt uneasy, so she circled around and returned to the little blue fish, asking, "Any new finds?"

Little Blue Fish: Yes!

Lu Xingchen: "What?"

Little Blue Fish: "I heard that familiar voice say... The egg will explode at noon tomorrow!"
