My supermarket is connected to all worlds, and I've won so much money handing it over to the st

"Really, Miss Gu? Then there are many more on our mountain."

“Then earning a hundred coins a day wouldn’t be a problem for us, Miss Gu. Are you perhaps an incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva, here specifically to save everyone?”

"Thank you, Miss Gu. Thank you. There's hope for the future. I'll go back and dig right away. If I sell to the town's pharmacy, I'll need to know how to process and make medicine, and then dry it before weighing it. It's definitely not as cost-effective as selling it here."

……

After the villagers paid their bills, they all left. Seeing that there wouldn't be any guests coming in the near future, Gu Xixi quickly ran upstairs.

In the living room, Chen Yanxu and Shen Qingyan sat at opposite ends of the sofa.

Upon seeing Gu Xixi, the two immediately stood up. Gu Xixi was already used to their excessive politeness and simply took out the wooden doll that Shen Qingyan had given her from her bag and asked.

"Shen Qingyan, do you still remember this?"

"The customers who came to buy things just now also have some. They said you carved them yourself, and that you carved hundreds of them."

Chen Yanxu's eyes widened suddenly. These wooden dolls were so exquisitely crafted; hundreds of them had been carved.

And this was during a time when disaster relief was so busy!

“Of course I remember.” Shen Qingyan stood up gracefully. “At that time, many people wanted your wooden puppets, but they couldn’t find a suitable craftsman, so I just carved some in my spare time.”

Would ordinary people ask the county magistrate to carve wooden dolls if they wanted them?

In such a large disaster-stricken area, if you really wanted to find a craftsman to carve something, even a bag of rice could be sculpted to a level that would satisfy him. How could you not find a craftsman?

When do I ever have any free time?

"So casually..." Chen Yanxu rolled his eyes and let out a speechless sneer.

Upon hearing this, Shen Qingyan's expression instantly became somewhat unnatural, and she looked slightly at a loss.

Gu Xixi gave an "oh," clearly not quite believing it either, but since that's what others said, why not keep asking... just in case they have something they can't say?

Forget it, it’s not a big problem.

"What do you want to eat tonight?" Gu Xixi asked again, vaguely hearing someone coming downstairs. She checked the time; there were still four or five hours until dinner.

"Teacher, Shen Qingyan, you should go to your rooms and rest. You'll recover faster if you rest well. You can stay in either of the other two rooms, except for the one with the cat on the door. It seems we have some guests, so I'll go downstairs now."

After she finished speaking, she skipped away.

Chen Yanxu hesitated, but Shen Qingyan simply cupped his hands and said, "Teacher, please choose your room first."

Chen Yanxu: ...

He turned and left, and Shen Qingyan then moved to the window in the living room to look at the distant mountains.

The horses at the supermarket entrance looked familiar. Shen Qingyan's eyes suddenly lit up with alarm. They were the horses of that bandit gang. They had returned!

Oh no, Gu Xixi is still down there.

Shen Qingyan hurriedly found the grenade and pistol in the living room and went downstairs. Because he was moving too fast and his movements were too big, blood quickly seeped out from the bandage on his calf.

Gu Xixi was standing outside the door, facing seven or eight bandits who were threatening her with knives. "So the shop owner is a girl. What are you doing running a shop in this desolate place? Are you not a decent person?"

"Hahaha, she's human, and she even has a shadow. The house's sudden appearance must be an illusion. She's not a demon or ghost, so what's there to be afraid of? Let's rob this place."

"Wow, I'm so scared." Gu Xixi cooperated calmly. The people who injured Shen Qingyan dared to come back. She should be grateful that she didn't go after them.

madness.

Her calm tone provoked the bandits, and the bandit leader signaled to his underlings to teach Gu Xixi a lesson.

Gu Xixi stood still, and the bandit slapped her across the face.

Shen Qingyan moved even faster, grabbing Gu Xixi's arm and pulling her behind him. He then raised his pistol and fired a shot at her.

Blood gushed from the man's arm instantly.

"It's that kid again! Brothers, tie them all up!" At the bandit leader's command, everyone sprang into action. Gu Xixi saw seven or eight large knives charging towards them.

Even with a gun, Shen Qingyan would have difficulty withstanding so many attacks and would inevitably be injured.

She strained to switch places with Shen Qingyan, blocking his way, raising her chin, and waiting to see what would happen.

Fear and panic spread through Shen Qingyan's heart for the first time, and exploded.

He stepped forward, his hands urgently and nervously grabbing Gu Xixi's arms, turning her around so that his back was to the bandit's broadsword, wanting to shield her from the blow.

However, just as he grabbed Gu Xixi and before he could even change positions, the knife, which was only a foot away from slashing Gu Xixi, abruptly stopped in its tracks.

As if something invisible was blocking their way, Shen Qingyan was dumbfounded.

The bandits were dumbfounded, so they tried swinging their broadswords again, but still couldn't cut through.

"Boss, this is weird."

"You need to tell me, run!"

"Walk."

Gu Xixi chuckled, "It's too late to leave now."

As soon as she finished speaking, the bandits in front of her were suddenly launched into the air, giving the impression of sitting on a cliff swing.

Seven or eight bandits screamed like pigs being slaughtered, "Ah! Mother! Mother!"

The sound echoed through the sky.

"Brother Tong, you're really awesome." Gu Xixi praised, then turned around and realized that Shen Qingyan was still holding on in shock.

Although Shen Qingyan only grabbed her arms, because they were so close, he was practically hugging her.

Gu Xixi looked up and met his worried and surprised gaze. It turned out that Shen Qingyan could also be stunned. She stood on tiptoe, and the two of them were face to face, only a foot apart.

She smiled, her eyes sparkling, her voice soft, gentle, and slow, with a hint of teasing, "Lord Shen, have you had enough of hugging?"

At the same time, Chen Yanxu, who had run downstairs upon hearing the noise, grabbed a kitchen knife, hurriedly covered his eyes, and ran upstairs, repeatedly chanting, "Don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't look at what you shouldn't see."

Shen Qingyan snapped back to reality, released Gu Xixi, and distanced herself by a meter.

His face flushed red again, from his ears all the way to the base of his neck. "I have offended you. I did not expect you to have such supernatural powers. I was overthinking it. Please punish me."

"Alright, then I'll punish you by making you go back and rest. Go upstairs and watch how I get revenge for you." Gu Xixi deliberately took a few steps closer to Shen Qingyan, continuing to move closer. "After all, I'm not some delicate little girl. I have plenty of strength and methods. Don't be afraid when you see me, Lord Shen."

Shen Qingyan immediately retreated in a panic, but then she was amused by the expression on her face as she spoke, so she bowed and said, "Okay, I'll follow your instructions, Miss."

He took several steps back, then turned back with a look of despair, adding, "No matter what the girl becomes, I, Shen, am not afraid."

Immediately, Shen Qingyan fled in panic.

Gu Xixi burst out laughing; Shen Qingyan was just too adorable.

The bandits were still swinging up and down in the sky, howling in pain, and their movements were even more ferocious than before.

[Brother Tongzi, I didn't know you liked playing pranks. Put it down for now, I need to talk to them.]

【Hmm.】 This "hmm" sounded somewhat muffled.

Gu Xixi joked, and several bandits immediately appeared in front of him, but they couldn't control themselves and collapsed on the spot, trembling all over.

After confirming that they had landed, the group chuckled and rubbed the floor, laughing heartily.

"Boss, we're not dead, we're really not dead."

"Thank you for sparing our lives, young lady. Please spare our lives, we beg you."

"Please spare our lives, young lady. We were blind to your greatness and will never come here again."

……

The group of men were very pragmatic; they knelt down and begged for mercy, crying and pleading until Gu Xixi had a headache.
