We agreed to be a tour guide, how did it become the law of nature?
Chapter 445 New Rules
At this time, the other three people also came back to their senses. After thinking for a while, San Yueqi said, "It is impossible for a situation where people are bound to die in the plot world. Moreover, we can completely treat this place as the real world. It is absolutely impossible for the people in the town to not need to eat, which is illogical."
"If we rule out the possibility that these people are cooking at home, there is another place selling food in the town besides the inn." Xing followed the train of thought.
"Dumpling shop!"
Everyone thought of this place. They walked around the entire town yesterday. Apart from the inn, only the steamed bun shop was selling food.
Although pharmacies also sell food-related items, it would be too far-fetched to associate them with daily food.
Another reason that made Tingyun certain that the steamed bun shop sold normal food was that when the innkeeper introduced jobs to the travelers, he mentioned the county government, the pharmacy, and the ancestral hall, but did not mention the steamed bun shop.
It is unlikely that the bun shop does not need other people to work. There must be a reason why the innkeeper does not want these people to go to the bun shop.
After sorting out the currently known information, Tingyun, Sanyueqi and others finally breathed a sigh of relief. It would be easy if they could find new ideas and clues. Next, they would go to the bun shop to take a look.
There is another point that Tingyun is more concerned about, that is, when the innkeeper was guiding the travelers to find jobs, he refused these people to work in the inn, but instead agreed to let them work in the inn.
She couldn't figure out what information was hidden in it.
……
The group of four came to the street where the steamed buns shop was located. It was empty and quiet, and this was the only shop open on the entire huge street.
The steamer was opened and steam was rising. The white mist was wrapped in the aroma of hot wheat. The four folds were filled with crystal gravy. The paper-thin dough was radiant with a warm luster. The amber meat filling was faintly visible between the folds, trembling slightly under the dim light.
The throats of the people who had been hungry for a day and a night rolled up and down, and their mouths were drooling uncontrollably.
"Fine! So fragrant!" Xing stared at the buns intently, and was so eager to buy a few to try them.
The armless bun shop owner was standing nearby. His skinny face showed little expression, but his eyes were looking at San Yue Qi and the others.
They didn't notice it yesterday, but today they discovered that the bun shop owner had no hands. His arms were broken at the root, and no one knew how he made these buns.
"Uh, do we still need to buy some buns?" Seeing this scene, San Yue Qi backed off a little.
"Buy." Tingyun simply said one word.
She was a little hesitant at first, but at this time a group of people came to the street, all of them were the natives of the town. They threw a copper coin into the drawer next to them, and then took a bun from the steamer to eat. These people also included the innkeeper and the waiter.
So Tingyun, Sanyueqi and others also walked over and asked the bun shop owner about the price of the buns.
"One copper coin each." The bun shop owner seemed to be in no mood and lowered his head after saying that.
The people around were staring at Tingyun and the others, and their eyes seemed to contain... desire?
Four copper coins were thrown out, and each of the four people took a bun.
After taking a bite, the rich gravy burst out in his mouth, and San Yueqi felt as if he had come back to life.
"Hmm, it's delicious!" At this moment, she didn't want to find out whether the bun was edible or not. She couldn't care less and just ate it first.
Originally, I thought one bun might not be enough, but after eating it, San Yueqi found that he was completely full.
Seven Day Contract
Rule 1: You must never lie in Qingyun Town.
Article 2: One transaction must be completed every day.
Article 3: Transactions may be conducted with copper coins or other equivalents.
Article 4: The nights in Qingyun Town are full of dangers, please make sure you stay in your room after dark.
Article 5: Baozi is the only edible thing in town.
At this time, new rules emerged, and after receiving this information, everyone showed a relieved expression.
Fortunately, their judgment was correct, and this bun was obviously not a regular food. Just one bun was enough to keep you full for the whole day.
When the others saw Sanyueqi, Tingyun and the others finish their buns, they all left with a look of slight regret on their faces.
"Huh, I think I've passed this level. Now that the problem of food and clothing has been solved, it's time to look for new clues." After eating, San Yueqi regained his energy.
Xing looked at the lonely copper coin in his palm and said, "Should we find a way to make money first? Otherwise, we can only survive tonight and will be hungry tomorrow."
According to the innkeeper, places where you can work include the county government office, herbal medicine shop, ancestral hall and inn.
Considering that the other party is most likely not human and is an existence that stands on the opposite side of these players, the other party's information cannot be easily believed.
"But, isn't this right?" After Tingyun expressed his thoughts, Sanyueqi hesitated for a moment, "Isn't the first rule very clear? In Qingyun Town, you must never lie, so what the innkeeper said must be true."
"That's right. I believe the information about the places where we can work that the innkeeper mentioned is absolutely true, but there must be something unknown that has not been told to us. It is definitely not possible for us to make money easily."
As a businessman, Tingyun was very sensitive to these things. The innkeeper mentioned the place where he worked but missed the steamed bun shop. Was this a lie? No, after all, no one had asked him if he could work in the steamed bun shop.
The innkeeper said that one could work and earn money in the county government office, pharmacy, and ancestral hall, which makes sense logically, but in the actual implementation process, it is hard to say whether the workers can get what they want.
By this calculation, it cannot be said that the innkeeper is lying.
It's just a word game, so Tingyun is sure that it is the only area where he can work. Just as Rule 5 says that buns are the only thing that can be eaten in the town, the bun shop is the only place where he can work in the town.
In a sense, the fifth rule is also a hint.
But just in case, Tingyun and the others decided to look somewhere else first.
It just so happened that a group of travelers who came from nowhere and whose identities were unknown also needed to work. Just by observing these people, we could get a rough idea of the result.
So a few people searched around the town and finally saw them in the pharmacy.
It seemed that these people felt uncomfortable staying in the county government office, so they simply came to the pharmacy.
The situation of the drug store owner was similar to that of the innkeeper, with a blank face. The only difference was that the drug store owner had a pair of ears. As for the apprentice, he was a skinny man who looked like a bat, and his situation was similar to that of the innkeeper.
