Chapter Nine, Is it a Spirit Stone
However, are gems merely gems? Feng Jun does not think so; otherwise, why would the imprint of his stone ring be so hot
He searched every corner of the village, but no longer felt anything that could make the imprint warm
Regardless of the circumstances, the marks of the stone ring on his hand have deepened, and for the time being, he no longer needs to consider the energy issues of entering and exiting the space
The floor attendant, noticing this guest transporting various peculiar items into the room, felt quite curious. When she discovered the threaded steel pry bar, she took the initiative to report it to her supervisor
Could it be that the guy didn't travel back to the late Ming Dynasty, but rather to... a fantasy world of immortals?
This energy is invisible to the naked eye, yet the impact on his body is so real, so wildly intense, so heart-wrenching.
Feng Jun came out again, and it was an hour later. He frowned, his hair was also damp, and he had a look of unhappiness on his face
Feng Jun waved his hand and spoke weakly, "Just throw everything away... Leave the suitcase for me."
Finally surpassed the boundary of "third-degree disability"
He took a bath for a full half hour, and when he came out, Zhao Hongqi was opening the window, "What is this smell? Who stepped in dog poop?"
Thus, he replied with a hint of surprise, "Really? I just changed my clothes... It seems that the high price of these nine wolves is indeed justified"
Since this gem does not necessarily need to be liquidated, Feng Jun unhesitatingly extended his left hand and pressed it against the gem
Feng Jun kicked over the stone pedestal, and a red light flashed at the bottom of the pedestal
After checking several times and finding no issues, he silently murmured "go out"
If he could quickly obtain his first pot of gold, he would even consider resigning automatically
Even the ancient Qin Shi Huang understood the importance of unifying measurements and weights, thereby laying the foundation for a unified China. As a modern individual, what reason is there to overlook this fact
The female owner of the laundromat also wore a look of disdain, but in consideration of the small amount of money involved, she refrained from saying anything unpleasant
He had to step outside and take the clothes from the suitcase to the laundromat. The stench was so overwhelming that he didn't even want to wash them himself
He couldn't help but let out a low groan at that moment; he felt as if his left hand was about to explode. If it weren't for the fear of being discovered, his scream would undoubtedly be earth-shattering
The foreman hurried over upon hearing the news, "Sir, have you brought many things into the room?"
The stone ring brings a sense of coolness, yet at the tip of the little finger, there is a surging force of agitation. Feng Jun gritted his teeth with great effort, trembling from the pain, feeling as if his left hand no longer belonged to him
However, thinking that he was about to embark on the pinnacle of his life, he restrained his inner wickedness.
What surprised him even more was that his weight had also decreased to 140 jin
Feng Jun was raised in a petty bourgeois family and is not very familiar with rubies, but he can swear that this is undoubtedly the most enchanting ruby he has ever seen in his life—without exception
Worse still, he discovered that in order to search for spirit stones again, he would need to prepare more and better equipment
Successful individuals must, of course, possess qualities of character
As he passed by the front desk, Xiao Li couldn't help but speak up, "I say, how did you lose so much weight in the blink of an eye?"
Then, he picked up Xiao Li's phone and replayed it. As expected, throughout the entire filming process, he seemed to show no changes. However, the suitcase hanging from his right elbow had mysteriously disappeared
However, immediately afterward, a sudden coolness surged through his wrist, and the imprint of the stone ring became distinctly visible
At this moment, he yearned immensely for a system, even though the legendary system was known for its various malicious quirks that often caused the protagonist great suffering, but... at least it would save him the trouble of exploring on his own
After purchasing the clothing, he did not rush back to the Hongjie Club, but instead took his identification card and checked into a budget hotel. He needed to conduct many tests, and staying at the club would be quite inconvenient.
Feng Jun felt an urgent need to take a shower, as he could even smell the odor emanating from his own body
Wait, how could there be so much grease on this body again
That afternoon, Feng Jun had not much work to do, but what surprised him was that he actually developed a member in the afternoon
Feng Jun was stunned for a while before reaching out with his right hand to touch his wrist, and the heat had completely vanished.
Fortunately, his feet have not grown any larger; otherwise, he would not even be able to fit into his shoes
Returning to the real world, the first thing Feng Jun did was to take off his clothes and change into cool summer attire
Why has the color of the ruby diminished a bit?
At the entrance, he encountered Qin Tao, who was arriving for work. Qin Tao looked him up and down, moved his lips slightly, and ultimately couldn't help but say, "Why do I feel like you've grown taller?"
He must stay in the real world for a while longer to earn some money; the remaining ten thousand yuan in his hand is truly insufficient.
Indeed, during these four days and three nights, he has already quantified the relevant indicator data
Is it just because he changed his clothes? Xiao Li looked him up and down, feeling that it didn't seem like it at all, but he didn't know how to ask further.
In the fitness center, there are instruments for measuring height and weight. Feng Jun took off his shoes and stepped on the scale. He couldn't help but open his mouth in astonishment: Is this... ? ... One hundred seventy-six centimeters?
He truly had no interest in speaking; while others saw him as having spent an hour in the room, he had actually been in that space for a full four days and three nights
After about ten minutes, the magnificent red of the ruby gradually dimmed, while the imprint of the stone ring on his hand became clearer than ever before
He leaned over to take a look and was pleasantly surprised to discover a groove at the bottom of the stone pedestal, which contained a ruby the size of an egg.
The rebar, thicker than a thumb, has one end sharpened, making it not an exaggeration to call it a weapon
Such a large ruby, if brought into reality, would easily sell for several million without question. However, explaining the origin of the gem poses a problem, and it is indeed a hassle.
He truly cannot explain what this ruby is. Analyzing it through the definition found in online novels, it can be likened to a stone that provides energy, similar to electricity, which probably means it is a spirit stone
Regrettably, the design of this tattoo is somewhat ... um ... how should I put it
Although this was expected, he could not help but feel frustrated—after all, the first spirit stone was quite easy to find
If he had not watched it repeatedly, he might have thought that the suitcase had merely slid a little.
Since he had to go to work, he needed to present himself appropriately for the occasion. Noticing that it was getting late, he rode a public bicycle and hurried to the club
However, in less than a second, his figure reappeared. He bent down and hooked the suitcase on the ground onto his elbow, saying, "Damn it, this habit of being forgetful is really not good"
Xiao Li just made a joke at him, saying he didn't expect him to be a quick draw, only to find that this fellow was dragging a suitcase and rushed into the staff changing room
I certainly know that I have grown taller, and Feng Jun is well aware of this. In real life, the pants he bought more than an hour ago can no longer cover his ankles.
For a moment, Feng Jun had a vague realization: this village might have suffered because of this ruby
In the next moment, the suitcase reappeared, having shifted approximately five centimeters in position
Delete the video that was just recorded, he walked out of the bathroom with a rolling suitcase and placed his phone on the front desk, "Thank you"
Feng Jun really wanted to respond playfully: After seeing your photo, Lu Guan has become like this.
This gemstone is crystal clear, reflecting a bright yet gentle radiance under the sunlight, resplendent yet retaining a warm softness
The foreman pondered for a moment and slowly spoke, "Keep an eye on him, and notify me when he comes out again. I need to ask him a question."
Although Feng Jun is a liberal arts scholar and should not be overly sensitive to data, one of the degrees he obtained is in Business Administration. Without data, what is there to discuss regarding management
She was a woman in her early thirties, with a face that could barely score seventy points. However, she was exceptionally overweight; her waist was not too thick, but her legs were as thick as those of an elephant. She stood approximately 1.65 meters tall and weighed definitely more than 165 pounds
After checking into the room, he went out to make extensive purchases, primarily of warm clothing and food. He even bought a kerosene stove and went to the construction site to buy a sharpened rebar pry bar.
He did not dare to press the gem down with his entire left hand, but merely rested the tip of his little finger on it.
However, although Feng Jun currently possesses more than 80 energy points, it cannot be wasted like this any longer
About half an hour later, the ruby lost its last trace of red, changing from pink to grayish-white, and then it shattered, turning into a pile of white powder that fell from the stone pedestal in a flurry.
Is this ... ... a spirit stone
Feng Jun's clothes are also quite smelly, the summer outfit just changed is somewhat better, but the autumn shirt, autumn pants, and thick leather jacket are simply unbearable.
In the next moment, his body suddenly trembled, as he felt an inexplicable surge of energy flowing through his left little finger, directly rushing into his body with immense force.
He originally thought that he could stop going to work and from then on enjoy a carefree life, but in the end, he could only sigh: ideals are abundant, but reality is truly stark.
Feng Jun's ancestors were also once affluent, and it is said that they produced a successful candidate in the imperial examination, yet he still cannot provide convincing evidence.
In the next moment, he dug a hole with his hands, swept the fragments of the spirit stone into it, sprinkled sand on top, and buried it securely.
My friend already has storage space, and making a lot of money is just a matter of time. The current task is to try to uncover the truth of the adventure.
However, the stone ring imprint on Feng Jun's left wrist became increasingly clear, with a bluish-purple hue, resembling a tattoo.
Feng Jun, on the other hand, went to a clothing store and bought a summer outfit from a small brand "Nine Wolves," spending over 500—his buddy is about to reach the pinnacle of life, so this amount of money is nothing.
At this moment, the mark on his wrist has faded somewhat. If we say that the spirit stone provided him with one hundred points of energy, he has now used up more than a dozen points.
