Chapter 446: Reaching an agreement
After leaving Asuraâs rocky area, Ye s.h.i.+wen once again embarked on an exploration (money-making) journey.
Now that she had such a powerful curse ability, Ye s.h.i.+wen felt a little inflated. She no longer had to be careful when she was traveling, and instead, she was walking in a straight line.
Taking big steps, Ye s.h.i.+wen felt that she was the most beautiful man in this mountain range!
At this time, the ground suddenly began to shake, and Ye s.h.i.+wenâs body suddenly lost its balance and fell to the ground.
The frightened Ye s.h.i.+wen jumped up from the ground like a rabbit and immediately turned around to find a large bra.s.s bell floating in the sky above the area where Asura was.
The bra.s.s bell was simple in design, and there were all kinds of ancient characters carved on it. It floated in the air and slowly rotated.
At this moment, he could vaguely hear curses coming from the distance.
Under Ye s.h.i.+wenâs surprised gaze, the big bell suddenly fell, and the shaking of the earth stopped, and the surroundings returned to calm.
Ye s.h.i.+wen was speechless.
Thinking that it was Asuraâs doing, Ye s.h.i.+wen thought for a moment, then turned around and prepared to continue on her way.
After all, there was still 95% of the area that had yet to be explored. The earlier he finished, the earlier he could return to Beiqi happily.
When the time came, he would have to eat a good meal to reward himself.
Thinking of this, Ye s.h.i.+wen suddenly felt a little excited.
After all, he was poor and easily satisfied.
She had just taken a few steps when a rabbit, startled by the earthquake, suddenly jumped out of the bushes at the side. It then hit the tree next to Ye s.h.i.+wen.
The rabbit couldnât help but roll its eyes. Its body fell to the ground, and its legs twitched.
âF * ck, it hurts!â B.rabbit, who had returned to his senses, hurriedly stood up and began to rub his head with both hands as he spoke in human language.
Ye s.h.i.+wenâs face was full of shock, and she even felt a little nervous, because he was familiar with this rabbit.
It was the one that he had tested the effects of the curse on.
At this moment, the rabbit in Ye s.h.i.+wenâs eyes had a huge debt of sixty-three soul coins. Seeing the creditor, it naturally felt a little guilty.
âRabbit?â Ye s.h.i.+wen said in a low voice.
Hearing the voice from the side, the rabbit immediately stopped rubbing its head and turned to look at Ye s.h.i.+wen.
âDonât you know how to talk?â Ye s.h.i.+wen was stunned.
âGoo Goo Goo!â B.rabbit started to play dumb and took small steps back, his face alert.
At this time, Ye s.h.i.+wen suddenly realized that the rabbit seemed to have forgotten that she owed it a huge sum of money.
He immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
âItâs good that youâve forgotten!â
The rabbit looked at Ye s.h.i.+wen, but in its heart, it was muttering.
He seemed to have met this woman before, but why was she looking at him with such fear in her eyes? was she afraid of him?
Thinking of this, B.rabbit tentatively asked,â
âDo we know each other?â
âI know him!â Ye s.h.i.+wen said without hesitation.
âHow did you meet?â B.rabbit asked warily.
âYou owe me a mystical material!â Ye s.h.i.+wen said guiltily.
âImpossible! I canât even afford to eat mystical materials myself. How can I owe you a mystical material?â The rabbitâs Red eyes widened, its face filled with disbelief.
âItâs fine. You donât have to return it. Iâm not a petty person. â Ye s.h.i.+wen continued to say guiltily.
âThatâs impossible. Tell me, why do I owe you a mystical material?â The rabbit asked stubbornly.
âYou just ate it, and then you suddenly lost your memory!â When Ye s.h.i.+wen said these words, she obviously didnât have much confidence.
When the rabbit heard this, it glanced at the big tree that it had just crashed into, and could not help but rub its head, falling into deep thought.
Did I lose my memory from the collision just now?
Iâve been cultivating for hundreds of years. How can my body be so weak?
Thinking of this, B.rabbit couldnât help but raise his head and ask,â
âYouâre really not lying to me?â
Ye s.h.i.+wen hurriedly nodded.
âYou said it yourself, thereâs no need to return it.â The rabbit immediately said.
âYes, yes, you donât have to return it!â Ye s.h.i.+wen hurriedly nodded.
âThen what else do you have to say?â Hearing that he didnât have to return it, the tension on B.rabbitâs face immediately disappeared, and he continued to rub his swollen rabbit head.
âAre you familiar with this area? Can you be my guide?â Ye s.h.i.+wen asked expectantly.
If there was a creature familiar with this mountain range as a guide, Ye s.h.i.+wen felt that the progress of her exploration would be much faster. After all, she hadnât opened up the map yet, and it was shrouded in fog. It was easy to walk into a dead end.
Under such circ.u.mstances, they could only return and take a detour, which was a waste of time.
When the rabbit heard this, it raised its head and glanced at Ye s.h.i.+wen,â
âAre there any benefits?â
âI thought you didnât have to return the mystical materials?â Ye s.h.i.+wen said guiltily.
âYou said that you donât need to return it before you made your request. So, the first thing has been exempted. This is the second thing. You must pay for it.â The rabbit said seriously.
To Ye s.h.i.+wen, she could talk about anything, but not money.
No matter how hard it was, it was impossible to talk about money, unless she was the beneficiary.
However, without B.rabbitâs help, it would take her a long time to complete the task.
This made Ye s.h.i.+wen very conflicted.
After thinking for a while, Ye s.h.i.+wen said with a bitter expression,â
âHow about a piece of dry bread?â
âWhat is dry bread?â Rabbit asked in confusion.
âExpensive food!â Ye s.h.i.+wen said her evaluation of dry bread.
There was no exaggeration in this sentence, because this was Ye s.h.i.+wenâs actual evaluation of the dry bread that was sold for 0.5 soul coins.
If it wasnât for the fact that she would die from hunger, Ye s.h.i.+wen felt that she would be hungry for a long, long time.
In this way, he could save 1.5 soul coins if he didnât eat for a day, 45 soul coins if he didnât eat for a month, and a huge sum of money if he didnât eat for a year.
Therefore, there was nothing wrong with the idea that dry bread was equivalent to an expensive delicacy. It was in line with the logic of the poor.
B.rabbit, who had never heard of this kind of food, could not help but fall into deep thought. Then, he curiously asked,â
âCan I see what the dry bread looks like?â
âIâll look at it after I finish it!â Ye s.h.i.+wen, who didnât want to spend soul coins to buy it, couldnât help but answer.
After all, every time he ate dry bread, he would only buy it when he was in urgent need. He had never h.o.a.rded.
Because every time she spent soul coins, it made Ye s.h.i.+wen feel like her flesh was being cut.
âThen how do you expect me to believe you!â B.rabbit immediately glared at him.
âWhy donât you try to believe me this once?â Ye s.h.i.+wen felt that in the conversation with the rabbit, she was obviously at a disadvantage and had no momentum to speak of.
B.rabbit rubbed his head, and his eyes flickered.
It was naturally very familiar with this mountain range, so it would not be a problem for it to be a guide.
However, it didnât know if it should trust the woman in front of it.
Although they had lived for hundreds of years, the rabbitâs circle was actually very small, so they were not sure whether the promise of remuneration after the work was credible or not.
After some thought, the rabbit said with a grave expression,â
âIs there free food during work?â
Upon hearing this, Ye s.h.i.+wen said without hesitation,â
âThen what should I eat?â the rabbitâs eyes widened.
âYouâre a rabbit, eat gra.s.s!â As she spoke, Ye s.h.i.+wen pointed at the nearby weeds.
The rabbit was speechless.
âIâm a rabbit who has cultivated. If I donât eat gra.s.s, Iâm a rabbit at the bottom of the food chain!â Rabbit couldnât help but berate.
âThen what do you want to eat?â Ye s.h.i.+wen was stunned.
B.rabbit pointed at the top of a large tree at the side.âEat the leaves!â
âAlright!â Ye s.h.i.+wen nodded.
Thus, a poor player and a confused rabbit reached an exploration agreement.
Exchanging a piece of dry bread for a tour guide was a huge loss in Ye s.h.i.+wenâs eyes!
But in rabbitâs eyes, it seemed like he had made a huge profit!
After reaching an agreement, the human and rabbit set off.
During this time, Ye s.h.i.+wen told the rabbit about her plan to explore the entire mountain range.
The rabbit didnât care. To it, it was just wandering around the mountains every day, so it didnât matter where it went.
That afternoon, under the rabbitâs lead, Ye s.h.i.+wen found that the progress of her exploration had indeed sped up a lot, and she had even bypa.s.sed several areas where fierce beasts appeared.
The rabbitâs value in Ye s.h.i.+wenâs eyes shot up.
This piece of dry bread did not seem to be a loss!
The sky gradually darkened, and Ye s.h.i.+wen, who had been walking with the rabbit for an entire afternoon, was finally hungry.
Looking at her hunger points that had turned red, Ye s.h.i.+wen felt a burst of pain in her heart.
Although he still wanted to endure, it seemed like he would enter a weakened state if he did not eat. He had already reached the point where he had no choice but to eat.
Ye s.h.i.+wen had no choice but to stop moving forward. She found some dry wood, took out a lighter from her s.p.a.ce, and lit the fire. Then, the human and rabbit sat down around the bonfire.
âRabbit, go find some leaves to eat.â At this moment, Ye s.h.i.+wen turned her head and looked at the rabbit.
âThen what do you want to eat?â The rabbit asked curiously.
âIâll think of a way, you go eat first!â Ye s.h.i.+wen said in a serious tone.
âDo you want to eat dry bread behind my back?â B.rabbit said with wide eyes.
Having her thoughts guessed right, Ye s.h.i.+wenâs expression changed significantly, becoming very guilty,â
âJust one personâs worth!â
âIâll just take one bite!â Rabbit tried to negotiate with Ye s.h.i.+wen.
âNo, itâs too expensive!â Ye s.h.i.+wen immediately refused.
When rabbit heard this, he was not surprised.
After all, in its mind, dry bread should be a delicacy that was comparable to mystical materials. It was indeed a little too much to ask for a bite.
After some thought, B.rabbit rubbed his swollen head, turned around, and burrowed into the forest.
After the rabbit left, Ye s.h.i.+wen opened the game store and selected the food category and dry bread.
She stomped her feet, gritted her teeth, and bought one!
She took out dry bread from her s.p.a.ce. The bread was still steaming hot, and the fragrance of wheat filled her nose. Ye s.h.i.+wen couldnât help but reveal an intoxicated expression on her face.
He really couldnât get tired of it!
Thinking of this, she opened her mouth and took a bite.
âOh?â As she chewed on the bread, Ye s.h.i.+wenâs brows slowly furrowed.
Ye s.h.i.+wen couldnât believe it and took a few more big bites, but the bread still didnât taste any different, making her feel like she was eating paper.
This made Ye s.h.i.+wen stop eating and fall into deep thought.
A moment later, Ye s.h.i.+wen seemed to have found the reason. She immediately opened the mall again and opened the food category list.
It turned out that he had forgotten to open the list of delicacies. No wonder the taste had deteriorated! Ye s.h.i.+wen thought happily.
Looking at the list of delicacies, Ye s.h.i.+wen smiled sweetly.
Drawing empty promises to quench oneâs thirst, self-deception mode was immediately activated.
The smile on Ye s.h.i.+wenâs face froze.
Why did it still feel like he was eating paper? It was completely hard to swallow!
Iâve bought inferior goods!
The âtruthâ that she thought of suddenly appeared in Ye s.h.i.+wenâs mind.
After all, the dry bread was made by the players themselves, so it was inevitable that there would be mistakes.
Thinking of this, Ye s.h.i.+wen was very angry.
I spent so many soul coins, and I actually bought a low-quality product. How could I bear this?!
Thinking of this, Ye s.h.i.+wen continued to eat indignantly. No matter how bad it was, she couldnât waste it!
After all, it was too expensive!
