My future diary cannot be the last one

Chapter 44 The whereabouts of the Book of Heaven

The darkness only lasted for a short moment, and the next second, the vault that fell into darkness lit up again. However, this time, the scene in the vault suddenly changed.

What comes into view is a magnificent palace.

In the center of the palace is a round table made of gold, with beads and gems inlaid on the edge of the table. Various precious calligraphy and paintings are hung on the four walls. Countless antique collections are also displayed in other places. Every bit of the palace is enough to arouse the deepest greed in people's hearts.

Yet the most striking.

It is still the scale located in the center of the golden round table. Compared with the palace, which symbolizes "wealth", the scale itself seems much ordinary and old.

Pivot made of bronze.

Pallets in different colors.

There's even some rust left on it.

On the seat on the left side of the golden round table, it seems that the body shape has returned to normal size from a small person, but the limbs are still made of bronze.

On the right side of the round table is Wu Mian.

The two of them sat at both ends of the round table, corresponding to the two ends of the scale. Xun Xi and Qi Dongqiang stood behind Wu Maang. They did not have seats, so they could only stand. However, the sitting Wumai made a somewhat depressed sound at this time.

"This is. Kingdom!?"

"Is that what you call it?" Facing Wu Mao's questioning, Ma Feng tilted his head and said, "Qi Hehua and I prefer to call this move Jedi Heavenly Power."

"Of course, that's not my power."

"Strictly speaking, this is the power of the scale itself."

"Boom!"

Before Ma Feng finished speaking, Wu Maang and Xun Xi drew out their guns almost at the same time, and faced Ma Feng on the other side of the round table and decisively pulled the triggers of the guns.

Will-o'-the-wisp bullets roared out.

The high-temperature heat flow arrives instantly.

However---

"Um!?"

——

Regardless of whether it was Xun Xi or Wu Maang, the will-o'-the-wisp bullets fired by both of them failed to hit the target. Instead, it just stayed in front of Ma Feng, and then collapsed without warning. And the high temperature that was supposed to result from this has turned into a refreshing breeze.

"Feel sorry."

At the same time, Lin Xiao, who was summoned by Xun Xi, also looked embarrassed: "I have been trying to influence him, but it seems to have no effect."

Lin Xiao’s supernatural powers are useless?

".Don't waste your efforts."

Ma Feng grinned, completely losing his previous flattery: "No violence is allowed during the transaction. This rule treats both parties equally."

"You must abide by the sacred principles of trading."

"Trading Principles."

Wu Maang took a deep breath and immediately looked at Xun Xi: "I'm sorry, I accidentally dragged you into this. You should go first, you should be able to do something."

The reason for everything is still that the will-o'-the-wisp has not been ignited.

With the protection of the will-o'-the-wisp, Wu Mao would not have been eroded by that inexplicable greed. Finally, under the influence of greed, he accepted the green and white paper handed over by Ma Feng. But to be honest, I can't blame him. After all, the will-o'-the-wisp in the lantern is not actually in unlimited supply.

The fuel for that kind of will-o'-the-wisp is extremely scarce, so a rationing system is adopted.

And each official specialist will only have one copy per month unless special supernatural events occur. So of course I usually save as much as I can.

To put it bluntly, there is just no money.

That's why Wu Maang didn't light the will-o'-the-wisp in advance. The reason why Xun Xi didn't care was because he obtained Qi Hehua's ability, flame manipulation. This supernatural power involving fire can replace the fuel provided by the headquarters and directly strengthen the lantern and the will-o'-the-wisp. So Xun Xi won't be troubled.

"Stop being delusional."

On the other side, Ma Feng continued: "Since you know this is the country, you should know in your heart that you cannot escape from this place."

"Let me introduce the rules."

"The first thing is what we trade. To put it bluntly, it is life. This scale will measure our lives equally and give a price."

Ma Feng just finished speaking.

The scales on the golden round table suddenly shook, and then, the trays on both sides erupted with dazzling golden light, and there was a constant crackling sound in the light.

Until the light fades.

Only then did everyone see clearly that they were actually two piles of shining golden coins. Just like the chips on a gambling table, these coins are divided into equal heights, and you can calculate the amount with a quick glance. There are only sixty-two on Ma Feng's side. There are one hundred and thirty-one on Wu Mao's side.

"As expected of an extraordinary person."

Ma Feng clapped his hands when he saw this: "It's more than twice as much as me. This shameless gentleman, the pile in front of you is the money you got to buy your life."

"Please take them seriously."

Ma Feng grabbed a handful of his coins intoxicated and said softly: "Because they are really your life."

".Okay! Next is the second rule!"

"The second rule is the method of transaction. The standard has only two words: value. One party gives the transaction object, and the type is not limited. But the other party must give the transaction object of the same value. If there is any shortage, you need to use these to buy Use your life money as collateral until all the life money is used up.”

“As for value judgments, that will be settled by the scales.”

"Don't worry, it's absolutely fair." Ma Feng knocked on the round table: "In addition, both parties must propose at least one transaction in each round during the transaction."

"are you ready?"

"Allow me to ask." At this moment, Xun Xi suddenly said: "What will happen if the transaction is completed and you get all the life money from Wu Maang?"

"It's very simple."

Ma Feng looked straight at Wu Maang, his eyes as eager as if he were looking at a stripper: "I will escape from this damn balance. As for this shameless gentleman, he will replace me and become the decoration on the balance." .Believe me, it will be an eternity of agony.”

"A body made of bronze."

"Without touch, without smell, without taste, delicious food is meaningless, and a beautiful woman is meaningless, just like a stone."

"It just so happens that you haven't been able to go crazy yet."

“For the scales will sustain your sanity.”

"Hiss!" At this point, Ma Feng suddenly gasped, then became more anxious, and even seemed a little restless.

He could hardly wait any longer.

Ever since Qi Hehua was imprisoned in this broken world, he had been thinking about how to leave almost all the time. And today is his best chance!

"Let's get started!"

I saw Ma Feng reaching into his arms, and then he took out a booklet from his arms and solemnly placed it on the golden round table in front of him.

"I guess you extraordinary beings are here."

"Probably for that."

"Boom!"

The moment Ma Feng let go and the book fell on the golden round table. The scale on the table suddenly made a loud noise, and then the tray on the side of the scale facing Ma Feng fell to the bottom with an unstoppable force, making a heavy muffled sound on the table.

".The Heavenly Book of the Earth Religion!?"

Wu Maang and Xun Xi's eyes immediately fell on the book Ma Feng took out. I never expected that there would be an unexpected harvest this time!
