Hey! Let's play cards

The strong prey on the weak, this is the law of the jungle. If you can't survive, it only means you are not strong enough.

One of the bad guys who looked like the leader walked up to Chu Qingchen and said in a sarcastic tone: "Little devil! We built this bridge. If you want to pass through here, you have to pay the toll!"

Facing the leader's blackmail, Chu Qingchen smiled nonchalantly and replied casually: "What if I say no?"

"No? Haha! Haha!" The leader and the other bad guys burst into laughter when they heard this.

The leader held his stomach, laughed, and said, "Haha! Haha! Kid, you are really funny. It has been a long time since anyone said this to me."

Chu Qingchen stood there, looked around, and silently counted numbers in his mind.

1, 2, 3, 4...

"What? Little boy, you want to escape? Don't think too much. Unless you can fly, you'd better stay here today!"

Before the leader finished speaking, he suddenly attacked and grabbed the card box on Chu Qingchen's waist.

Nine out of ten duelists' power comes from cards. As long as they can get the opponent's card box first in the battle, they can ensure victory in the battle.

Although the leader seemed to look down on Chu Qingchen, he had lived in Black Gold City and had worked hard for many years, so he had the ability to judge people.

If he were to face off against this kid in front of him, he might not be his opponent.

That's why the leader used words to paralyze Chu Qingchen, and then relying on the hand speed he had developed from years of stealing, he believed that he would be able to quickly obtain Chu Qingchen's cards the moment Chu Qingchen let down his guard.

As long as it succeeds, the little devil in front of him can be easily controlled.

Closer, closer, and closer, the leader's fingers were only a few centimeters away from touching Chu Qingchen's card box.

"Got it!!!"

The leader's face showed ecstasy, and he was already calculating in his mind what the harvest would be this time.

However, one hand was faster than the leader.

Before his fingers touched the card box, he grabbed him tightly.

"Do you think I'm not on guard against you? Only a child would fall for this kind of trick."

"You...how could you?"

Chu Qingchen began to increase the strength of his palms, and a look of pain immediately appeared on the leader's face.

No matter how the leader struggled, his hand seemed to be grasped by steel bars, and he could not pull it out even if he tried his best.

"You... let me go, I am..."

Before the leader could finish his words, Chu Qingchen clasped his other hand tightly, aimed at the leader, and punched him in the stomach.

“Wow——” the leader immediately spat out something, then bent his body and knelt on the ground.

"Anyone else wants to try it?" Chu Qingchen held the leader in one hand and said domineeringly to the bad guys at both ends of the plank road.

Chapter 285 Mysterious Supermarket

The other bad guys all took a step back, they knew they had met a tough guy.

Chu Qingchen threw the leader away like throwing away garbage.

The leader was thrown to the edge of the plank road. If he had not been quick-eyed and quick-handed, he might have been smashed to pieces like those unlucky guys.

"This is a bad idea, let's retreat!" Seeing that the situation was not right, the leader immediately chose to retreat.

He is not like those brainless street urchins. Judging the situation is a skill that must be mastered in Black Gold City.

Chu Qingchen watched the bad guys blocking both ends of the bridge leave one after another, and had no intention of chasing them.

They are just a bunch of scum, not worthy of Chu Qingchen's serious attention.

The rest of the curious people gradually dispersed, and were surprised at Chu Qingchen's strength.

But everyone knows in their hearts that a "compassionate" person like Chu Qingchen will not survive here for long.

"Let's get this over with quickly! It's really a mess here." Chu Qingchen sighed in his heart. He had only walked a short distance when he ran into someone looking for trouble.

I really can’t imagine what kind of terrible things will happen after taking a walk around Black Gold City?

Chu Qingchen did not encounter any more trouble on the rest of the journey.

The villains and bad guys all understand their own strength, and they will never do things like fighting against a rock with an egg.

Naturally, there are other people to take care of Chu Qingchen in front of them.

Chu Qingchen continued walking, and when he passed a corner, he accidentally discovered a supermarket.

"Huh? Is there one here too?"

Chu Qingchen didn’t think much about it. After all, the location of this supermarket was hidden, in a narrow alley. Even if you looked from the opposite side, you would definitely be able to find it.

Without much hesitation, Chu Qingchen walked straight in. After all, this place was closer.

In the man-made stone alley, Chu Qingchen walked towards the supermarket step by step.

Perhaps it was Chu Qingchen's illusion. It was clearly close at hand, yet it seemed far away in the horizon. True and false, real and unreal were intertwined.

Chu Qingchen just walked, walked, and walked...

His consciousness gradually became blurred. In a daze, Chu Qingchen didn't know how long he had walked. When he came to his senses, he had already arrived in front of the supermarket.

"This..." Chu Qingchen did not notice the abnormality just now. He just thought that he was too hungry, which led to his lack of concentration.

Chu Qingchen raised his head and the whole picture of the supermarket came into view.

Crooked signs are placed randomly at the door, windows and walls, painted with colorful paint.

Although it looks messy, it is obviously quite old.

The light bulb at the door emitted a faint light. An old man was leaning on the counter with one hand, his eyes half-closed, as if he was half asleep.

Chu Qingchen has a certain understanding of Black Gold City. Those who can open shops in Black Gold City are not simple people.

Either he is extremely powerful, or he has someone behind him.

If he were an ordinary weakling, he would have been eaten by the wolves outside.

Whether it is the hospital that Xiao Longtian chose or this supermarket, they are of the same nature.

Chu Qingchen took a deep breath and walked into the supermarket.

The supermarket was deserted. Apart from Chu Qingchen, there was no other customer.

The old man didn't even raise his eyelids and didn't notice Chu Qingchen at all.

Chu Qingchen didn't care. He went to the shelf, took down a lot of sealed food and put it in the basket.

It is worth mentioning that when Chu Qingchen passed by the other shops, the interior layout was in chaos.

Most of them are just a pile of things spread out there, with no signs of deliberate organization.

However, the interior of the old man's supermarket is clean and tidy. Both the shelves and the floor are neat and tidy without any dust.

"Old man, please check out!" Chu Qingchen put the basket on the counter and said in a polite tone.

"Ah——" The old man yawned, rubbed his eyes, and began to pay the bill slowly.

While waiting, Chu Qingchen discovered that there was a glass cabinet behind the old man, filled with cards with their backs facing outwards.

"I didn't expect that this supermarket actually sells playing cards!" Chu Qingchen thought to himself, inexplicably tempted.

"Since I'm here, why not buy some cards?" This idea of ​​Chu Qingchen's began to spread.

The old man finally settled all the food bills.

"A total of 670!" The old man's voice sounded light and it seemed that he had not yet woken up.

This price is much higher than that in ordinary supermarkets. Chu Qingchen understands that the prices here are much more expensive than usual, so he has no intention of bargaining.

"Old man, can I buy some cards?" Chu Qingchen asked after taking the plastic bag.

"Oh - you want to buy cards?" The old man raised his head, glanced at Chu Qingchen, and his tone finally fluctuated.

The old man in front of me has white hair and a full beard. Although he looks very old, there are not many wrinkles on his hands, feet and face.

"Do you really want it?" The old man showed some interest and said with an inexplicable meaning.

"Yes!" Chu Qingchen nodded slowly.

"Then...which ones do you want?" the old man said, pointing to the glass cabinet behind him.

Chu Qingchen didn't think much about it, and pointed to the sixth picture in the fourth row and said, "I want that one!"

Just after he chose one card, a voice sounded in Chu Qingchen's heart, guiding him to choose the second card.

"And there's the fifth picture in the third row!"

The voice still did not stop, and it pointed Chu Qingchen's finger at a card.

"And the fourth one in the second row!"

After picking three, Chu Qingchen realized that something was strange. Just now, he seemed to...

"No more?" the old man asked.

"I still want... I still want... I want... No! There are no more." Chu Qingchen found that he had no other way and asked for the fourth card.

Chu Qingchen noticed at a glance the card that was in a separate row on top of the glass cabinet.

To be placed in that position, it must be a card of extremely high rarity.

However, every time Chu Qingchen wanted to speak, it was as if a pair of large hands covered his throat, making him unable to speak at all.

The old man looked at Chu Qingchen's performance and didn't say much. Instead, he said directly: "In that case! Okay then!"

The old man slowly stood up, straightened his back, walked to the glass cabinet, and took out three cards one by one according to Chu Qingchen's request.

"I'll leave it to you now. I hope you can bring out the true strength of these three." The old man gave an instruction and placed the three cards solemnly in Chu Qingchen's palm.

Chu Qingchen couldn't wait to turn over the cards, hoping to get some good cards.

However, when Chu Qingchen saw the front of the three cards, the smile on his face suddenly stopped.

“What is all this!!!” Chu Qingchen was speechless, as if countless horses were running through his mind.
