Chapter 98

"You're delivering goods very quickly." A Yan blinked.

Every time she and Jue Jue came, Lu Chen would have new stuff.

She immediately asked, "Is there a VIP discount?"

I have to say that the door of the Plane Convenience Store appeared at the right time today, just on the first day of the Lunar New Year. A Yanhe felt that his pockets were bulging, and with the New Year's money in hand, he could be said to be quite wealthy.

"Of course there is." Lu Chen said.

But at this moment, A Yan looked at Lu Chen's smile and thought, doesn't it seem like he was smiling too much?

What's going on? Is Lu Chen short of customers and has no sales recently? Although he is good-looking, his smile makes Ah Yan hold his hand tighter and feel cold all over.

Ah Yan habitually looked down at the time on his watch, then reacted and paused time as he entered the canteen.

Lu Chen did not miss her little action. He raised his eyebrows and thought that the young couple was indeed calculating the time to enter the canteen.

That’s right! They did this just to get some of the aura from their own plane!

Although the hands of the watch did not move, as the master of the plane, he naturally had his own way of calculation.

Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Lu Chen originally wanted to close the store today, but as he stayed in the store the whole time, the plane system automatically regarded it as "open".

Lu Chen asked the two to wait here, VIPs always get special treatment.

Lu Chen went to pick up the new goods, while Ayan and Juejue were browsing their phones in the VIP seats. She looked at the push notifications on her phone and her eyes lit up. She said to Juejue: "Kaka posted a new video!"

"We'll watch it when we get home."

A Yan took a quick look and found that this video was a full hour and a half long!

"I think Kaka's videos might be better than the movies." A Yan muttered.

Zhu Jue nodded: "I agree."

"Kaka, are you going out during the New Year?" he asked.

Zhu Jue's understanding of Kaka was limited to watching each other's travel videos with Ayan every time. They were in the address book, and he had never had a private chat with him, nor had he ever looked at his Moments.

"She went out, but she didn't post where she went on WeChat Moments."

"Damn it, I asked Kaka before, but she said she wanted to keep the video fresh for me, so she refused to tell me." Ah Yan said with a puffed face.

The last time I watched Kaka’s video was before the Chinese New Year, when I had just returned home from Bincheng for the winter break.

It has been more than half a month since I last saw a new video, and Yan has been looking forward to it.

Unfortunately, the time I have known Kaka is still too short. Kaka's journeys are long or short, and there is also time for rest in between. Until now, there are only a few travel videos posted on the Alphabet Station. But with the release of each new video, there will be a new wave of fans.

A Yan forced himself to move his fingers away from the screen and hold it in. He didn’t know when Kaka’s next video would be. This was an electronic pickled mustard tuber that only appeared once every half a month!

She needs to appreciate it carefully with a sense of ceremony when she goes home, she can't just look at it casually!

Lu Chen quickly pushed a "cart" over, and in a blink of an eye, the tables in front of Ayan and Jue were filled with snacks and drinks.

Ah Yan was a little surprised when she saw the familiar interstellar snacks. "It's free for VIPs." Lu Chen made a "please" gesture.

In fact, he hadn't been to the interstellar plane recently. These few interstellar snacks were the ones he had rummaged through boxes and drawers and finally found for his own stockpile.

He remembered that the young couple had come over specially to restock the snacks. It was obvious that they really liked these snacks and said that as VIPs, they must have VIP services.

Ah Yan didn't hesitate to pick up a planet cup and started eating. She had shared the food she had stockpiled with her roommates in the last round and they had already finished it. She hadn't had any food in a long time.

However, I had to pay for it before, but now I can eat it for free. Should I say I was taken advantage of? Or did I spend the money to enjoy the benefits of VIP?

Lu Chen bought a lot of goods in the apocalypse this time. Of course, he still insisted that there should be no high-lethality weapons or overly advanced technology. He didn't dare to bring back food from the apocalypse. What if it contaminated the modern world? He didn't want to become a sinner for all eternity!

Therefore, this time, the goods he collected were actually things that seemed “trivial” to people in the last days.

For example——

The wind ring in front of you is a small gadget with multiple uses in the end times. It cannot be used by real psychics, but many ordinary people carry it.

"Is this a ring?" A Yan took the small pinky ring that Lu Chen had placed in the big box and looked at it.

The ring was inlaid with a diamond-shaped gray crystal, at least not the kind that Ayan was familiar with.

She touched the crystal with her fingers and pressed it lightly, and it seemed to react.

"Eh? Eh?" Ah Yan's hair was loose, and at this moment she only felt a gust of wind blowing on the small pinky ring in her hand, which immediately blew up her hair and was about to stick to her face.

"Is this a mini electric fan? The wind feels quite strong." Ah Yan pressed it again and quickly got the hang of it, and the wind became weaker.

Her eyes moved slightly, "Good guy, there are one, two and three levels, hot wind, cold wind and soft wind mode."

Is this a portable hair dryer + air conditioning fan in one?

Ah Yan looked at the mysterious crystal inlaid on the ring. This should be the energy provided by this thing, similar to the spirit stone in the novels of cultivating immortals.

Zhu Jue, who was beside her, reached out his hand, gently gathered up A Yan's long hair, took out a rubber band from his pocket, and quickly tied it into a braid.

Lu Chen looked at them and they seemed not surprised at all that this small ring could produce such a huge gust of wind, and they completely accepted it.

Zhu Jue didn't even glance at it, concentrating on braiding his hair.

Ah Yan weighed the wind-blown pinky ring in his palm and found it to be very light.

"It has many uses. It can also be used to fan air and as a bellows to make fire." Lu Chen said.

This was a use he had seen with his own eyes. In addition to the ring inlaid with a wind crystal core, there was also an igniter with a fire crystal core. It was simply a must-have item for people at home and out in the apocalyptic plane. When the two things were touched together, ordinary people could automatically make a fire in the wild.

In modern times, whether it is wind power, hydropower, or solar power, it is converted into electricity through an intermediate, and various machines are then driven by electricity.

In the end times, there are crystals of various colors and properties, which become natural sources of energy after being mined.

Moreover, even if the energy in the crystal is exhausted, it can continue to be used to store energy after the psychic inputs attribute powers.

As far as Lu Chen knew, some low-level espers could not upgrade and made a living by doing this kind of work. There were also some forces that specialized in raising a group of low-level espers and exploiting them for assembly line work.

The plane of the apocalypse has been changing for a long time, and more and more people have awakened their superpowers, so this little gadget that uses large crystals on fingernails to store wind-related superpowers is really extremely cheap.

Compared with the prices of food, medicine and desserts he had dealt in the past, this is definitely a huge profit!

A Yan weighed the wind ring in her hand, and suddenly she thought of a perfect use for it.

"How much is this?" she began to inquire.

"It's not expensive for this amount." Lu Chen stretched out a palm.

"Five thousand?" Ah Yan's face was twisted. This was too expensive! It was just a broken mini fan and a hair dryer. It was really unnecessary.

"It's five hundred, and 10% off for VIPs." Lu Chen said. The material of the ring inlaid with wind crystal is a brand-new alloy from the apocalyptic plane. It is closely related to the gold-based supernatural power and has extremely good energy conductivity.

"Four hundred and fifty, that's okay." Ah Yan thought for a moment and said, nowadays a ring with a little sense of design and unknown brand can be sold for this amount, this small pinky ring is still worth this price.

"Just a little bit of this ointment will keep all insects away."

Lu Chen took out another small wooden box. Ah Yan looked at the dark green paste inside and there was no label on the box.

She smelled it and it had an indescribable scent that was quite pleasant.

But looking at the appearance of the box, it looks like it is homemade. But then again, anything produced in Lu Chen's Plane Canteen is not easy to package.

As for "bugs", Ah Yan is not afraid of them. He just sees the short-term numbness. What he hates most are mosquitoes and noisy flies in summer.

She still trusted the quality of the goods in the canteen. Lu Chen said that this ointment could keep away all kinds of insects, so it really could.

Ah Yan and Zhu Jue were picking and choosing in the VIP reception room of the canteen, spending all the New Year's money they had just received.

"No, no, I'll transfer it to you online, otherwise my mom might check the red envelope later."

Ah Yan thought about it and realized that his mother might come back to settle the accounts soon, so the money in the red envelopes must be kept intact.

"Anything is fine." Lu Chen said, but he was confused. The young couple came to his current plane, and their identities were arranged. What about their parents? Their biological parents? Did they bring their family here?

But this question obviously could not be asked, as Lu Chen provided excellent service and sent the couple away after they had successfully completed their shopping.

Lu Chen took a look at the special clocks in the store. It took two full hours from the time the two of them came in to the time they left. He seemed to be thinking about something.

The young couple didn't buy much. They picked up this thing and looked at it, then studied that object. In the end, they bought only a few items. Lu Chen didn't think they bought too little, but now looking at the time, he understood why the two of them moved so slowly.

They had spent two hours in their own canteen! Buying things was secondary, being tainted by the aura of their own plane was the main thing.

Lu Chen recalled that the couple had stayed for different lengths of time when they came to buy things several times before, but except for the time when they were "attending self-study class", he did not record the time at other times. It seems that he should remember it later.

A Yan and Zhu Jue held the compressed space bags in their hands, pushed open the wooden door of the canteen, walked out, and appeared in front of the door of their own unit again.

At this moment, the second hand on my left wrist, which had been paused for a long time, finally moved.

"Let's go home and put the things away first." Ah Yan said, and he opened the door of the unit unconsciously. The two of them walked in. Without looking back, they pushed the door with their feet and closed it slowly without making any loud noise.

"I don't know what Chu Shen is doing at home right now."

The two of them went upstairs while talking, completely unaware that a familiar figure was standing not far from the unit door.

...

Yuanye rubbed his eyes for the third time, "What the hell?"

He muttered something, feeling a little dazed.

If he hadn't just seen it with his own eyes, it would have been hard for him to imagine this scene.

Chu Shenda played a video to himself in the morning, narrating his "ghost encounter" experience last night in a very moving way, and then called him over to watch a movie together.

With the idea of ​​coming over to thank the young couple, Yuanye took a taxi according to the location given by Boss Chu.

But he never expected what he saw just now. What? What!

Boss Chu gave him the location and the specific unit number. Yuanye was looking for the units one by one. Just as he locked his destination and walked towards it, he saw two more people suddenly at the entrance of this unit.

It was like teleportation, appearing out of nowhere!

Who else could they be if not a little couple!

No matter how stupid Yuanye was, he knew that he shouldn't say hello at this moment. He watched the two people open the door and go in. He even stepped back, afraid that they would discover him.

Yuanye took out a tissue from his pocket, rubbed his eyes, and thought for two full minutes.

"This shouldn't be my hallucination, right?"

After all, he was walking towards this side, Yuanye could see this view clearly. There was absolutely no one at the entrance of the unit, and he was the only one around!

A Yan and Zhu Jue, they suddenly appeared as if a crack in space was torn open.

Yuanye waited for a few more minutes, walked back, then took out his cell phone and called Chu Shen, pretending that he couldn't find the specific building.

"Hello? I'm nearby. Which unit are you in? I just found the entrance..."

Two minutes later, Yuanye saw the young couple wearing the same clothes as before and the smirking Boss Chu waving at him at the entrance of the unit.

"Happy New Year, Brother Ye."

He quickened his pace and walked over to greet the three people: "Happy New Year."

"Brother Ye, Happy New Year." A Yan smiled. Judging from Yuan Ye's current appearance, he must have been fine last night.

"Brother Ye, you came very quickly. Do you want to hear me tell you what happened last night in person?" Brother Chu Shen patted Yuan Ye's shoulder in a friendly manner.

As soon as these words were spoken, Yuanye saw that Ayan and Zhu Jue's expressions froze for a moment.

"It's New Year's Day, let's talk about something happy." Zhu Jue said.

"My friend Kaka posted a new travel video, let's watch it together." A Yan said.

Yuanye's eyes were determined. As expected, Ayan and Zhu Jue were trying to change the subject. They were probably afraid of embarrassing themselves.

"What video? Where is it?" Chu Shen's attention was diverted immediately.

"The friend who sent me beef jerky and milk slices before." Zhu Jue said.

"Ah, we've eaten together before, is he a travel blogger? I have to support him!"

While talking, Yuanye went upstairs and came to the young couple's home for the first time.

This is really...the great hidden in the city!

The two are obviously people related to metaphysics, but they live in an intellectual family that emphasizes science and rationality.

With such disguises, who could guess their true identities?

"Do you still need to go to pay New Year's greetings later?" Chu Shen asked eagerly.

If he hadn't had a video call with Brother Ye in the morning, he would have been bored to death. He didn't want to go into the kitchen to train in broad daylight, so he opened Zhu Jue's refrigerator to think about what dishes to add to the evening meal.

"We have finished worshipping." Zhu Jue said.

"Aren't there a lot of houses? It's so fast." Chu Shen thought that for such a large compound, it would take them at least a whole morning to visit every house.

"It's mainly about visiting the places that are familiar to us. We have visited all the places that are nearby." A Yan said.

Chu Shen said "Oh", and Yuan Ye's eyes were indeed deep.

Both of them have "teleported", how can the New Year's greetings not be quick?

The scene he just witnessed still reappears in his mind.

Cloud of War? Teleport? Shape-shifting? Flying? Space teleportation? These were all he could think of in his shallow mind.

Yuanye changed into slippers and went into the house. His mind was full of thoughts. Teleportation array? Anywhere door? But he didn't see anything else?

And Ayan just said...she said that to visit familiar and close relatives, those who are close need to "teleport" like this. Where on earth are they going to pay New Year's greetings?

Originally, Yuanye's definition of a young couple was at least within the secular world. It was normal for such beings as metaphysics masters and feng shui masters to have yin-yang eyes and be able to see ghosts.

The scene he saw a few minutes ago completely shattered his worldview!

Appearing out of thin air, and without seeing any portal, this is already at the level of tearing the void, right?

After entering the house and taking off his clothes, Yuanye watched Zhu Jue adjusting the projection screen of the huge TV.

Chu Shen had already asked A Yan's friend's ID and was searching.

"Travel Kaka, wow, this is amazing, she has millions of fans after just a few videos, is she doing blind box travel? What does that mean?"

"It's like opening a blind box and traveling completely randomly to a destination you don't even know. The destination is randomly drawn and flashed by a program." A Yan explained.

"So random? I've never heard of these places in the video titles." Chu Shen said.

"Yes, there is no information about some destinations at all. It takes a lot of twists and turns, changing many modes of transportation, and walking to get there." A Yan continued.

"That's hard enough, being so random. It would be much easier if we had Doraemon's door. We could just open it and change places." Chu Shen muttered.

A Yan thought about it and realized that there really was a door to anything, but it was in the convenience store of the plane and had nothing to do with Kaka.

Moreover, it is precisely because of the various events on the journey and Kaka's persistence, as well as the often unexpected but extremely real content, that it has attracted so many viewers.

As soon as Boss Chu said this, Yuanye suddenly had an idea in his mind, and his thoughts might have gone astray.

Maybe the young couple didn't just "teleport", but came out from the entrance of another magical place?

For example, in martial arts novels, there are some hidden secret realms of secluded families or legendary paradises that are inaccessible to outsiders without proper means?

What they mean by "close" is indeed the distance in the physical sense. Maybe they really are going into that space that ordinary people cannot see to visit their relatives and wish them a happy New Year!

There was a gleam in the eyes of the handsome dog in the wild. This time, he finally found some substantial clues about the identities of the two people!

However, he will keep it a secret until his girlfriend tells him!
