Chapter 1 The Ghost Who Used Silver Ingots to Buy Cookies
"Hello! Welcome~"

At the Yingchun supermarket in the old town of Wanxian, the duck sensor alerted that a customer had come in.

"Just look around, and when you've made your choice, bring it over to pay."

Xiao Yingchun shouted listlessly while lying on the counter.

The man blocked Xiao Yingchun's sight while strolling around, so she raised her head and looked at the person who came.

As a result, he stood up involuntarily, with a look of surprise on his face: "Are you...filming a movie?"

Fu Chenan didn't understand what filming meant and his face was full of confusion.

He and Xiao Yingchun looked into each other's eyes, then quickly turned his head away, his ears turning a little red under his helmet.

The woman has a delicate appearance, but her clothes are strange and cool.

The arms, legs, neck, chest, and large areas of skin were exposed, and even the ravines were faintly visible...

Looking at this shop again, it is also very strange.

The patterns on the items on the shelves are so lifelike that even the best painter could not draw them in such detail.

Unseen, unheard!

Fu Chenan was full of doubts. He found a relatively intact alley in the city destroyed by war.

But when he walked in, he found that it was a dead-end alley with only this one shop he had never seen before.

something wrong.

Fu Chenan turned her head again to observe the strangely dressed woman in front of her. Her eyes were full of curiosity and frank liking.

He had seen a lot of people and could tell at a glance that she had no ulterior motives and her thoughts were all shown on her face.

Xiao Yingchun looked at him curiously. The man was tall and strong, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his facial features were as handsome as if they were chiseled by a knife.

He had his hair tied in a bun on his long head, was wearing a thick, shiny helmet, and was holding a spear in his hand. He must be filming a movie.

It's midsummer now, and she's wearing a T-shirt and shorts and sitting in an air-conditioned room, yet she still eats a popsicle from time to time. She's such a workaholic, isn't she afraid of getting heatstroke?
I am convinced! I am extremely convinced!

"I'm not filming." Fu Chenan denied.

Filming is a name?

Xiao Yingchun held his forehead with his hand and said: Forget it, there are all kinds of people in this world, making money is the most important thing.

"Hello, what would you like to buy?"

Fu Chenan asked tentatively: "Do you have enough food here?"

Xiao Yingchun was stunned. Those rows of instant noodles, snacks, and bread... weren't they food?
Yes, he is so strong, he must not feel very hungry.

Xiao Yingchun slapped his head and dragged out two boxes from under the counter. They were full of compressed biscuits that had been stored at the bottom of the boxes and could not be sold.

This thing is very filling and doesn’t take up much space, and most importantly, it’s high in calories.

Xiao Yingchun held up the compressed biscuits and pointed at the instructions. "Here, this is military compressed dry rations. It's the most filling. One piece can be used as a whole meal. There are two pieces in a pack. They're not expired. Look carefully."

Fu Chenan took it, he didn't know simplified Chinese characters.

But he could understand it, and he was full of curiosity. Could such a small package be enough for two meals?
"How to sell it?"

"Ten dollars a pack."

Ten dollars?

Is it ten copper coins? That's a great deal!
Fu Chenan had never seen this thing before. He thought for a moment and asked, "Can I take it apart and have a look?"

Of course not!
But seeing that he was handsome and dedicated, Xiao Yingchun changed her tone and said, "Okay."

Fu Chenan tore the packaging bag over and over again.

Xiao Yingchun was dumbfounded. Could this man be a fool? He didn't even recognize compressed biscuits?
She still patiently demonstrated, opened it and handed it to him, "Two pieces will definitely be enough for your meal."

The man looked at the small flat piece and smelled it. It smelled a bit fragrant.

Seeing that he didn't move, Xiao Yingchun took the initiative to break off a piece and took a bite, "Here, it's not bad..."

Fu Chenan watched her eating with a crunching sound, hesitated for a moment, and took a small bite.

Fragrant, sweet, salty, crispy...it's quite delicious, but a little dry.

Seeing his Adam's apple rolling, Xiao Yingchun couldn't help swallowing her saliva. Then, looking at how he was eating, she handed him another bottle of water without any principles and said, "This is for you. Drink it." Fu Chenan took it and looked at this transparent thing he had never seen before. How do I open it?

Xiao Yingchun was shocked when she saw him about to bite the bottle cap with his mouth.

It's over, what a fool.

You have never even drunk mineral water. You are not only stupid but also poor.

What a pity for this face and this figure...

But since it was given, Xiao Yingchun generously decided to pay for her lust.

She slowly unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip, then handed him another bottle. She watched him open it and nodded with satisfaction.

Fu Chenan took a sip of Wahaha. The water was very clean and had no peculiar smell.

Then he quickly ate the compressed biscuits and drank all the water.

Um... not full.

Seeing Fu Chenan's eyes fall on the remaining two boxes of compressed biscuits, Xiao Yingchun pressed the box and said, "That stuff will swell when it comes into contact with water. If you eat more, you will get sick!"

I heard that fools don’t know when they are hungry or full, so don’t damage your intestines.

Fu Chenan readily agreed: "Okay."

He understands the truth.

"How much do you want to sell these two boxes?"

"There are 40 bags in two boxes. Just give me 400 dollars in total."

Four hundred coins?

Too cheap!

Fu Chenan casually threw out a silver ingot: "No need to change it. If it's good, come again next time."

After saying that, Fu Chenan picked up the two boxes and turned away.

Xiao Yingchun looked at the fake silver ingot in front of him with a worried look on his face.

Is it because of her looks?

Or should you get it back for the money?
She was confused for only three seconds. When she came to her senses, she quickly shouted, "That's the back door! It's a dead end, there's no way out!"

Xiao Yingchun started chasing after him.

She lifted the door curtain and ran out. Looking at the empty space at both ends of the dead end, she began to sweat coldly.

What about people?

What the hell!

That's not a fool, could it be a ghost? !

Xiao Yingchun shuddered, hurried back to the house, slammed the back door shut and locked it.

Sitting back at the counter, Xiao Yingchun looked thoughtfully at the fake silver ingot on the counter. She picked it up hesitantly because it was very heavy.

If it was a ghost, where did this silver ingot come from?

If it was a human, where did he go?

This doesn't make sense logically.

After thinking it over, Xiao Yingchun closed the shop, took the silver ingot and went out.

Xinlong Pawn Shop.

Xiao Yingchun smiled and said, "Boss, this is what my grandfather left me. Can you help me take a look at it?"

The shop owner Dai Hengxin, who is in his thirties, wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, a shirt and trousers, and looks quite gentleman.

He picked up the silver ingot nonchalantly: "Let me see."

After receiving the silver ingot, Dai Hengxin's expression changed slightly. He looked at Xiao Yingchun carefully and started to check it.

Xiao Yingchun took his expression into her eyes. If nothing unexpected happened...
