No jokes here

Buying good things at roadside stalls and getting golden fingers, picking up leaks at auctions, and pretending to be aggressive in the antique street are all well-written and refreshing plots.

Therefore, these locations are also often used for teasing.

Lin Qian'an divided the three locations into pros and cons, and conducted an analysis.

In terms of auctions, the money he currently has is undoubtedly not enough to pay a deposit for entry, so the priority is directly at the end.

Then the rest is the antique street and roadside stalls.

The antique street is full of asking prices and has its own set of unspoken rules. Lin Qian'an feels that if he is not familiar with the routines inside, even if he sees a stalk, it may be difficult to get it in his hands.

Relatively speaking, roadside stalls are very suitable.

Sell ​​everything and have everything.

And the price basically does not exceed [-] yuan.

It was not difficult for Lin Qian'an to buy something from it.

Of course, the premise is that there really is the "stem" he needs.

Without too much hesitation, Lin Qian'an shut down the mutated computer and covered it with a sheet, then put on the clothes and mask, planned the route on the navigation map, took a taxi and left.

Now he wants to race against the god of death.

The sooner he activates the golden finger, the more hope he will have.

Chapter 2 Buying the Game

Qinglian Plaza, Xiyuan Road.

This is a street where old men and women in Shuangrong County play in the shade. Normally, when the weather is good, there will be old men and women playing chess games or dancing here.

Because the urban management basically does not come to manage it, after a long period of evolution, some people will set up stalls here to sell goods, and some profiteers will use some weird goods to trick those old people.

Although things won't be too expensive to sell, they are definitely far from their own value.

In the evening, many people have closed their stalls.

Lin Qian'an got off the taxi and quickly walked into the entrance of the street.

Before this, I have visited three streets with street stalls, and this is the fourth.

But unfortunately, he didn't see the so-called stalk.

Lin Qian'an's observations were very careful and quick. From time to time, he would pick up some items related to the description of cheats and special items in the novel.

Among them are some rings, orbs, martial arts cheats, and weird crafts.

Lin Qian'an's speed was very fast. In less than half an hour, he came to the end of the street. At this time, there were only two or three stalls left that he hadn't looked at, and they all started to close their stalls.

It's a pity that he still hasn't found any items related to the stalk.

Lin Qian'an walked towards the stalls that were being closed.

Just in time, a system prompt suddenly appeared in front of him.

[Hint: There are stalks near the host, which have been marked. 】

When Lin Qian'an saw the prompt, he looked around naturally.

At the same time, he also saw the stalk.

It is a commodity that exists at a booth that is being collected.

It looks like a dark and simple metal ring, which is glowing faintly red in Lin Qian'an's eyes at this moment.

Maybe it's because the craftsmanship is not in place, or maybe it's too old, and the paint has faded.

It itself is in the corner of the booth and looks very inconspicuous.

But also because of this, Lin Qian'an felt that it quite fit the characteristics of a stalk.

The owner who cleaned up the stall was an old man who looked about 60 years old. He didn't pack things fast. He was packing less than one-third of the things at this time, so Lin Qian'an didn't rush forward to buy this ring.

He backed away calmly for a distance, and then found that the red light of the ring also disappeared.

Obviously, this detection range is limited.

Lin Qianan stepped forward and walked towards the booth slowly.

When the ring in his eyes glowed red again, he began to calculate the approximate distance.

Not long after, he came to the front of the booth.

It was about twelve steps away, and his average step was about [-] centimeters per step. Counting the distance from the ring at this time, it was about one meter, so the distance was about ten meters.

I just don't know if the detection distance is fixed or growable.

If it can grow, how does it grow, and is it related to him?

While thinking, Lin Qianan also squatted down and picked up the things on the booth to look at them.

Most of the things on this booth are ancient books from 80 to [-] years ago. They are all novels and comics. They were printed and published relatively old, and they don’t look like fakes.

Lin Qian'an carefully picked it up and looked it over, with a deliberate expression of interest on his face.

"How about it, handsome guy, do you want to buy a collection?"

Seeing Lin Qianan's expression, the stall owner couldn't help asking.

Lin Qian'an's face was slightly moved, and he asked, "What price?"

"Comics are 30 yuan a book, and novels are 20 yuan a book." The boss said.

"It's expensive." Lin Qianan shook his head and said.

"These are all out-of-print books, and the purchase price is not cheap. You think it's expensive, but I think it's too expensive!" The boss also shook his head.

"Why don't I buy two copies for 20 yuan?" Lin Qian'an asked.

Hearing this, the boss showed a hesitant expression, and immediately sighed: "Forget it, I'll close the stall right away, and sell you two copies at a loss, handsome guy, pick it up!"

Hearing this, Lin Qian'an carefully flipped through a few books, and immediately picked out a popular martial arts manga and a martial arts novel, then took out his mobile phone and asked, "Is it four?" ten?"

"Scan the QR code!" The boss said with a helpless expression, "Forty is forty. I have been here for so long, how could I lie to you?"

Lin Qian'an nodded and began to input the amount. While inputting, he pretended to accidentally see the small items on the side of the ring on the booth, and asked aloud: "Boss, how do you sell these small items?"

"Which one are you talking about?" the boss asked.

"How much is that bracelet?" Lin Qianan asked.

"Fifty."

"Where are the glasses?"

"forty."

"Where's the ring?"

"This fifteen."

Lin Qian'an nodded, picked up the ring and said, "Then add this! It looks fun."

After speaking, he scanned the QR code and paid 55 yuan, then picked up the two books and the ring, turned and left.

When Lin Qian'an turned to leave, he still felt amused at his own paranoia.

He was also afraid that he would be slaughtered if he asked for the ring directly, and he would not even be able to buy this thing.

Now it seems that he is completely worried because he has read too many novels.

The price of those two books is much more expensive than this ring, maybe he went up and said directly that he wanted to buy this ring, and it might not be possible to get it for five yuan if he negotiated the price.

Putting the ring into the wallet carefully, Lin Qianan took a taxi and returned to the rental house.

Although he knew that the possibility of a coincidence was very low, he was really worried that the mutated computer in his room would be found after he was out for a long time.

This feeling of worrying about gains and losses is even more prominent now that Lin Qianan regards it as a life-saving straw.

Fortunately, this situation did not happen. Until Lin Qianan returned to the rental house and lifted the quilt, the computer was still there quietly without any change.

Lin Qianan suppressed his excitement, checked the doors and windows, closed them, sat in front of the computer chair and turned on the computer.

A stalk word appeared, and the computer was successfully turned on.

Then, the next step is how to extract the stem point.

Lin Qian'an took out the ring from the wallet in his bosom, and after looking it over, the idea of ​​extracting the stem point emerged in his mind.

A prompt then appeared.

[Hint: Whether to collect the stem points attached to the current stem. (Reminder: After collecting the stalk points, the stalk will lose its original function.)]

Lin Qian'an silently chose no.

He really wanted to activate and use his golden finger, but at present, the stalk itself seemed to have a special function.

So he was very curious about what this effect was.

After thinking for a while, Lin Qian'an put the ring on his index finger.

No changes appear.

It was still the same old metal ring.

Lin Qian'an changed it on ten fingers one by one, and even stuck it on his forehead, but the result was still the same.

Then, he spit a little bit of saliva on it.

The answer remains the same.

After thinking about it, Lin Qian'an opened the nail clipper storage box on the table beside him, took out the acne needle from inside, burned it with a lighter, and then directly poked it hard at the index finger of his right hand.

There was a slight pain, and a little blood red also appeared on the fingertips.

Lin Qian'an did not hesitate, and directly smeared the blood on the ring on the index finger of his left hand.

After the ring was stained with Lin Qian'an's blood, it quickly absorbed it.

At the same time, Lin Qian'an suddenly felt that the ring in his hand had an inexplicable connection with him.

This feeling is very mysterious, as if it is an extra part of his limbs.

With a thought, Lin Qianan's consciousness touched the ring.

At the same time, he seemed to see an empty space about one cubic meter in size.

There is nothing in it, even Lin Qian'an feels that even air and time do not exist, it seems to be just a simple space.

He picked up a pen on the table, and after concentrating his mind, the pen disappeared and appeared in that empty space. As his thoughts changed, it reappeared in hands.

As a writer, Lin Qian'an is very familiar with this stuff.

In novels, this kind of thing is generally called a storage ring.

It can be used to store items and take it with you.

This is the word of the stalk, Lin Qianan felt as if he already understood the characteristics of the stalk.

Even thinking about it, his computer can be regarded as a meme.

Orphans, terminally ill, computer mainframes soaked in water... These coincidences also seem to fit some of the plots in the novel.

The corners of Lin Qianan's mouth curled up slightly.

This world may be undergoing some interesting changes, and he seems to be riding a ride.

[Hint: Whether to collect the stem points attached to the current stem. (Reminder: After collecting the stalk points, the stalk will lose its original function.)]

"Yes!"

Without any hesitation, Lin Qianan chose yes.

Perhaps the storage ring is useful and rare, but it doesn't solve its own problems.

And judging from his current situation, he couldn't afford to delay finding another stalk to use the golden finger.

And no one knows how many stalk points can be collected by a stalk, and whether the game in the game mall can solve his problem. If not, he may have to wait for the next game or find another way.

There are too many uncertainties.

So he still decided to use the storage ring directly to use the golden finger, and check the situation as soon as possible.

[Hint: 13 stalk points have been successfully collected. 】
