Infinite Puzzle City

Chapter 92 is on the hot search (first update)
When I got home, it was already four o'clock in the morning.

After saying goodbye to Huang Le, Xiao Ran opened the rolling door.

"Crack!"

Turning on the light, the white cat lying on the counter raised its head, took a look, then turned around and continued to bury its head to sleep.

Xiao Ran took out instant noodles and boiled some hot water.

In fact, he had been starving for a long time, but inside the Changchun Club, Xiao Ran really didn't have the courage to try the food there.

Especially when leaving, Xiao Ran felt uncomfortable whenever he thought of the young man selling lamb elbows.

The faint smell of death on the other person made him smell a hint of danger.

"I hope I don't run into this guy again."

Xiao Ran secretly made up his mind that if he met the other party in the mystery city in the future, he would either leave or strike first and never give the other party a chance to strike first.

"jingle……"

At this time, the door was pushed open.

"Xiao Ran, you haven't slept yet."

Xiao Ran looked up and saw an old lady standing at the door. Xiao Ran recognized the old lady as Uncle Wang's wife. Xiao Ran usually called her Grandma Li.

"Grandma Li, please come in."

Tonight is Uncle Wang’s first night, so he needs to keep watch.

It’s not surprising that Grandma Li is not asleep at this time.

"I haven't thanked you for what happened to Lao Wang yet."

Grandma Li said this and bowed to Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran quickly dodged and said, "You are embarrassing me. Grandpa Wang is always nice to us younger generations. If you need any help, just let me know."

"During the day, I said I wanted to pick out a piece of clothing for Old Wang. You were out, and it just so happens that you're back now. I want to pick out a piece of clothing that fits him. Your Grandpa Wang usually doesn't even want to buy him a piece of clothing. In fact, I know that he loves to show off the most. He may not be satisfied with the clothes picked out by others."

"Then come over here and take a look."

Xiao Ran pointed to the clothes hanging on the row of shelves at the back.

He took off the plastic bag covering the dust. "These clothes are all popular nowadays. They are loose and comfortable. The material used is also the best mulberry silk. Five layers are best. They have Velcro, which makes them convenient to wear."

Funeral clothes are different from other clothes. They cannot have buttons and the number of layers cannot be an even number. Generally speaking, there are three collars and two waists, four collars and three waists, or five collars and four waists.

If the customer is under fifty years old, three collars and two waists are best.

For people over 50 years old, four collars and three waists are enough. Of course, you can also choose more five collars and four waists. There is a saying that the more you wear, the greater the blessing you will bring to your children and grandchildren.

You can’t use the word “duanzi” on the material because it sounds like “duanzi” in Chinese.

Mulberry silk and satin are the best materials. Not only do they look good, but they will not contaminate the ashes when burned. The inferior material is cotton.

Xiao Ran heard that there seemed to be a batch of materials made of special paper recently, but Xiao Ran had not bought any clothes made of that material yet.

Grandma Li picked up the clothes one by one and looked at them. Xiao Ran did not mind the trouble and unfolded each piece for Grandma Li to see the workmanship inside.

"Just this one."

Grandma Li looked for a long time and finally decided on a set of clothes with four collars and three waists.

"Is there a mirror?"

Xiao Ran hesitated for a moment. There was a mirror upstairs, but not downstairs. Mirrors should not be placed in a funeral home because mirrors are yin and can easily offend ghosts.

"I don't mean anything else. I just want to see what this dress looks like when it's draped over me."

"Yes, please wait a moment."

If it were someone else, Xiao Ran would have refused, but the Grandma Li in front of her was not only a neighbor, but also the one who watched her grow up after she moved in. In the end, Xiao Ran couldn't refuse and went upstairs to get down her dressing mirror.

Grandma Li picked up the dress and compared it in front of the mirror. She stroked the collar of the dress and said to herself, "Old man, do you think this dress looks good?"

As Grandma Li finished her words, the white cat that was originally lying on the counter suddenly arched its body.

With a "meow!", it jumped onto the shelf, leaving only its head and eyes staring at the mirror.

In the mirror, Grandpa Wang was wearing a brand new funeral suit. He turned around from time to time, with a more and more energetic smile on his face. He looked up at Xiao Ran and said, "Xiao Ran, do you think this suit fits me?"

"It looks great and fits me well. Grandma has good taste."

Xiao Ran walked to Grandma Wang, looked at Grandpa Wang in the mirror, and reached out to smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes.

"Okay, okay, this dress is really pretty, but..."

Uncle Wang pointed to the hole on his face and said, "This hole is leaking air a little bit."

"It's okay. I'll fix it for you tomorrow. I make sure no one else can see it."

"Hahahaha, good, good." Uncle Wang was as happy as a child, but then he changed his tone and sighed, "I won't have the chance to send you fish in the future."

After saying that, he took a special look at the kitten on the shelf. Before Xiao Ran could speak, Uncle Wang's eyes became empty. He stared at Xiao Ran and asked, "You said that I have been fishing for my whole life. Before I leave, I can experience the feeling of being caught. Is this my retribution?"

There was a faint flame flickering in his deep eyes, as if he was longing to get an answer from Xiao Ran that would comfort him.

Xiao Ran did not answer Uncle Wang's words. Instead, he said with a look of grievance: "I caught you on my first fishing trip. I'm afraid I won't even want to touch the fishing rod in the future. You are sacrificing your life for others, and your merits are immeasurable."

Uncle Wang was stunned for a moment, and then he seemed to be relieved. He bowed to Xiao Ran and said, "Child, let's go."

"Go slowly."

Xiao Ran nodded, and looked at the disappearing figure of Grandpa Wang in the mirror, as if he had never existed. On the contrary, Grandma Wang came to her senses belatedly, and she turned back and touched her neck. She turned her head and muttered, "Why did I hear Old Wang's voice just now? This old man, even after returning home, is still so dishonest?"

Then he asked Xiao Ran, "Xiao Ran, how much is this set?"

"121."

The cost price is a token of my appreciation, and adding one dollar is a rule.

Maybe the funeral clothes in other stores may be cheaper, but the materials are definitely not as good as theirs.

Grandma Li has been a neighbor for many years. When her grandfather was alive, she came to visit often, so she knows a little about it through observation and experience.

So he took out three hundred yuan and put it on the table. Without waiting for Xiao Ran to refuse, he said, "Your uncle Wang and his family are ignorant. Whose two-meter-long wreath only costs ten yuan? That was the price many years ago. Child, if you have this intention, then help your grandfather Wang to clean up the wreath. It will be a token of your appreciation."

At this point, Xiao Ran couldn't refuse anymore and could only say, "Don't worry about Grandpa Wang's matter."

"Oh, okay, I'll go back first."

After seeing Grandma Wang off, Xiao Ran collected the money on the table and turned around to glance at the white cat hiding on the shelf.

"It seems that you can really see."

It is said that cats are of the Yin element and can communicate with spirits, but I only heard it and I didn’t expect it to be true.

Looking at the sky again, it was almost dawn outside. Xiao Ran didn't close the shop. He sat in the shop eating instant noodles and turned on the computer to watch some videos.

When I clicked on the hot search, I saw several eye-catching headlines.

[The owner of the antique was sold to a passerby for only 30,000 yuan, and the owner was so angry that he vomited blood]

Xiao Ran clicked it and took a look.

Isn't this the boss who sold me the Blue and White Cloud Sea Sky Globe Vase last night? ?

In the video, the boss was sitting on the ground crying loudly, and passers-by were filming with their mobile phones and saying, "Hey, this boss sold a real antique for 30,000 yuan, what a big shot."

The comments below are also varied, with some saying all sorts of things.

1st floor: "I'm afraid this boss is a fool."

2nd floor: "Many years later, the boss said to his son with tears in his eyes, 'I once had a priceless antique in front of me, but I didn't cherish it...'"

Floor 3: "Eat melons, eat melons, and wait for the follow-up..."

4th floor: "What bottle? Who has the full video?"

…………

21st floor: "Is this true? Can someone selling antiques fool you?"

Reply to the 21st post: "Really, I was right there at the time. The boss himself is sick. He mocked people just by looking at it. People couldn't stand it anymore and bought it for yuan. Then the museum director came over and said the bottle was real. The boss was crazy!"

Xiao Ran was reading the comments while eating noodles. He never expected that one day he would see his own news on the trending searches.

Then he clicked on several other similar hot searches.

I find the titles are getting more and more outrageous.

[The boss ridiculed the young man, but ended up losing $600,000 and collapsed on the spot]

[The boy was born with golden eyes, and made the boss regret it with one move]

[A priceless antique was treated as trash by the owner, shocking countless people]

Xiao Ran didn't care about the various fancy headlines on the online self-media.

But after watching a few videos, Xiao Ran felt that the noodles in his hand were no longer delicious.

Although the content of the video has not changed, many narrations have been added, such as "I knew this thing was special after just one look. I plan to buy it and hand it over to the country." and so on.

There are actually thousands of comments below, and tens of thousands of likes.

This couldn't help but Xiao Ran sigh that the self-media in this era are really boastful and have no bottom line for the sake of traffic.

The only thing I was thankful for was that I took the bottle and ran away, and no one captured me in the video, otherwise I don’t know how much trouble I would have gotten into.

After quickly finishing his instant noodles and washing his face, Xiao Ran briefly summarized the things he had exchanged for at the temple fair.

[Amplification Potion] 2 bottles,

[E-level corpse, one two-faced dog]

[One D-class female corpse]

[One F-level spell pattern with spirit]

[An F-level cursed evil embroidery needle]

It seems that the only thing I am missing now is an E-level spell [Craftsman], but I have no chance of getting this thing for the time being, so I can only wait and see.

The next step is to break through the master level in suturing skills. The rest, whether it is advancing to [Corpse Collector] or upgrading [Evil-Suppressing Order], will be a natural thing.

Thinking of this, Xiao Ran stood up, hung up a sign saying "Suspended business", closed the door and walked towards the backyard.

"Let's deal with that Japanese ronin first..."

　That guy… asked me to get up this morning and run five kilometers. Come on, I listened to you and almost lost my life. Come out and I’ll give you a small role…

　　The next update will be around 12:, the third at :, the fourth at :, and the fifth before :. Don’t ask me why it’s delayed by half an hour… I got up and ran, and I’m exhausted…
