Quick Transmigration: I Actually Became a System Bug
Chapter 135 The Disguised NPC in a Bizarre World (13)
When they first arrived in City Nine, after lending Fan Hua the money for their plane tickets, they had less than 12,000 energy points left. Later, they went to Golden Ghost Street and participated in a dungeon mission, earning a total of more than 1,400 points. Most of these points were contributed by the strange students in the dungeon.
In other words, they currently have a total of 13,299 energy points, which corresponds to 13,299 ghost coins. With all these ghost coins, they could definitely rent a single room in Golden Ghost Street with a deposit and payment of one month's rent in advance, but renting a shop to do business is a pipe dream.
Therefore, their primary task now is to earn ghost coins or energy points. They need a job that doesn't require attendance but allows them to interact with a lot of people.
After racking their brains, Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu finally came up with a good job idea – setting up a street stall!
For the next three days, Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu went out into the streets whenever they had time. They explored every place on Jin Gui Street where they could set up a stall, and finally chose a spot where Jin Gui Street and the neighboring You Jin Street met.
There are all kinds of stalls here from morning to night. Most of the stall owners are from Jinyou Street, but there are also a few from Jingui Street. The stalls sell food, useful items, and toys, but the prices are all relatively low. It is a favorite place for young weirdos to visit when they have nothing to do.
Most importantly, this area near Jin Gui Street belongs to the Liao family. This means that Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu can try to get through Liao Hong to see if they can rent a stall. Otherwise, it's not easy for outsiders like them to get a stall in this kind of place.
Liao Hong lived up to his reputation as a friend recorded in the game system. As soon as Shi Shaoyu finished explaining their difficulties and requests, Liao Hong found a henchman who found them a prime stall that very day. Moreover, he waived the stall fee for the first three months. As for what would happen after three months, well, we'll see. It's uncertain whether they would still be in City Nine by then.
With a stall secured, Ji Han and his team resigned from their jobs at the supermarket that same day. As for housing, they continued to live next to the supermarket's underground warehouse. The supermarket manager said that since the warehouse was idle anyway, they could temporarily rent it out to them, as long as they helped watch over the warehouse at night.
Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu happily accepted the favor. Shi Shaoyu even patted his chest and promised the manager that he would definitely put in a good word for Liao Hong next time he saw him. The manager was so happy that his eyes narrowed into slits. Of course, Shi Shaoyu didn't say what he was going to say next, and he certainly couldn't guarantee whether his good words would have any effect.
That evening, Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu took the toys they had assembled themselves and set up a stall. Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu's toys were very much in line with the trend of the eerie world: an electric brain that exploded when pressed, an electric skeleton that crawled out of its box, and a crazy eerie doll that made a rattling and flashing noise when touched...
The main selling point was a dark and eerie style. Ji Han felt that if this thing were in the real world, it would definitely be the worst-selling item. Who knew that in this strange little market, it would be quite popular. At least after just one night, their stall's reputation spread. Not only did they sell out that day, but many people also placed orders with them in advance.
As Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu's stalls gained more and more fame, the amount of Ghost Coins and Energy Points they earned also increased exponentially. Now they can afford to rent a house without exchanging Energy Points for Ghost Coins, provided that they really need to rent a house.
On the fourth night of their stall, they had just returned to the supermarket basement and hadn't even had a chance to go inside when they were thrown into a dungeon by a bizarre game. As Ji Han and Shi Shaoyu were teleported, they had only one thought: Luckily, they had stored the items they had set up in their space beforehand, otherwise, if they had left them outside, they might not have been able to find them later.
"Ding! Welcome new player to the other world. The game is about to begin. Please prepare yourself."
"Ding, the instance has been opened. This mission: Find the source of the mystery in Huanshan Village."
When Ji Han regained consciousness, he saw a dilapidated village surrounded by mountains and more than twenty other players around him.
Are there any new players in this instance who were pulled in for the first time?
The first person to speak up was... Du Xiuxiu. Ji Han's connection with these people made him wonder if this strange game also had some kind of bug.
The first time I met Du Xiuxiu and her group, there were only three of them. This time, their group had seven or eight people, and the original trio was missing the muscular man Chen Kuo.
Seeing that no one responded after she finished asking her question, Du Xiuxiu added another question.
"Newcomers, don't panic. We are part of the national team. The reason we asked that question was to give newcomers a basic overview of the strange world and its rules. If there are no newcomers, we won't waste any more time. Are there any, everyone?"
Still no one raised their hand. Du Xiuxiu nodded and returned to their line, and everyone's positions and groups became more and more obvious.
There were 24 people in total, and Du Xiuxiu and her group occupied eight of them. It seems they must have some special means to control multiple people to enter the same instance.
Of the remaining sixteen people, apart from five who were clearly in a group, the other eleven were either in pairs or alone, clearly lacking a dedicated organizational structure.
Unlike the first instance mission, this time no one seemed to be introducing themselves to each other, or even cooperating. Seeing this, Shi Shaoyu simply pulled Ji Han to stand in a corner on the outskirts of the main group.
As everyone remained silent, the sound of footsteps approached from the mountain village ahead. The footsteps grew louder as the thick fog that had enveloped the entire village gradually dissipated, revealing a group of villagers led by an elderly man leaning on a withered wooden cane.
"Distinguished guests, you have come from afar. I am sorry for not being able to greet you properly. Please forgive me!"
Ji Han/Shi Shaoyu... For a moment, they didn't know whether they were in a modern, eerie world or had returned to that ancient world.
Seeing that no one spoke, Du Xiuxiu could only step forward and exchange pleasantries with the old man.
"Sir, we came here on a hiking trip in the mountains, but we got lost halfway through and somehow ended up at the entrance of your village. We are thirsty and tired from the journey. Do you know if there is a place to rest in your village?"
The old man hesitated for a moment after hearing this.
"Yes, there are quite a few families in our village with empty houses. However, there's definitely not enough room for all of you in one house. So if you're staying in the village, you'll have to stay separately."
