Chapter 8 Red Lantern Fruit and Purple Bamboo Wood
Ning Xuan looked at the pictures of food displayed in the mall stores, pieces of unknown meat steaks with blood, rows of black and wet meat chunks, and turbid, sticky and black drinks. Just looking at them made her frown. What kind of dark cuisine is this?
Ning Xuan, disappointed with the finished product, clicked on a shop that only sold ingredients. There were pieces of bloody meat with fur on, taken from different exotic animals or wild beasts. When it was fresh and hot, it seemed that you could see the residual warmth of blood. A piece of meat the size of a palm was priced at about 500-3000 star coins. Flipping through the pages, she came across a picture of bunches of bright red fruits. Look at the introduction below: Red lantern fruit, spicy and astringent, priced at 100 star coins. This thing looks like a lantern pepper. Flipping through the pages, after two pages, she saw another picture. It was round and stick-shaped, with purple skin, and one section at a time. According to the description, it was as thick as an arm. Brief introduction of the plant: Purple bamboo wood, sweet, with hard and thick skin. From the appearance, this plant is exactly the same as the sugarcane she had eaten before, and it costs 1000 star coins. She really wanted to buy it to see if it was sugarcane, but she didn't have enough money.
Ning Xuan clicked on the clothing store again. An ordinary dress cost between 100 and 1,000 star coins. The white dress that Ning Xuan wore daily was the cheapest one. Clothes with slightly more complicated styles would cost twice as much.
After looking at the various stores in the mall and then checking her account balance of 312 star coins, Ning Xuan was speechless. What kind of life was the original owner living?
No wonder this body is so thin. It’s not easy to stay alive because it’s not getting enough food and its blood is being sucked.
She rubbed her rumbling stomach and resigned herself to biting open the nutrient solution bag. Her body was in desperate need of energy, and she could only taste the stuff!
Ning Xuan suppressed her nausea and swallowed the can of sticky nutrient solution. Although it tasted bad, it finally suppressed her hunger.
Ning Xuan felt that in order to avoid starving to death, her top priority was to make money. Only by getting money and replenishing enough nutrition could her physical fitness be improved, her body could adapt to the growth of mental strength, and it would be possible to awaken the dormant ghost-faced red vine.
Just when Ning Xuan was searching for ways to make money on her computer, someone sent her a voice message. The caller's name was Hu Tao, and it seemed that this person was the original owner's best friend and classmate.
Ning Xuan answered the phone and heard a girl shouting excitedly, "Xuan Xuan, your optical brain number can finally be dialed through, are you okay? Ning Fei said that you went to the maze to find purple golden vines for Luo Meng, and also made the letter you wrote to Luo Meng public. Are you embarrassed to come to school because of this?"
"You're afraid that your classmates will laugh at you, right? Xuanxuan, don't think too much about it. Everyone has already seen through your thoughts. It doesn't really matter whether this letter is made public or not. Just come to school earnestly. I guarantee that they won't dare to laugh at you!" Hu Tao's loud voice echoed throughout the living room.
Ning Xuan suddenly realized that she was still a student, an underage student. According to federal law, she had to complete her studies or turn 20 before she could leave school and choose her career based on her personal circumstances.
Otherwise, no matter what you do, you are not allowed.
Some students may be able to use their parents' identities as a cover to do some social practice activities, but with her condition, both her parents are dead, and she doesn't even have anyone to cover her up.
