Chapter 109 The Hermit

If you just want to relax, the Central Commercial Street is a very good place. The concentric circular structure of the Central Commercial Street has enough places to provide catharsis and relaxation.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Chen walked into a newly opened health care shop.

"Welcome, what services do you need?"

Warm greeters stood on both sides of the counter.

"Do you have that menu here?" Yu Chen, who was experiencing it for the first time, felt unfamiliar.

Seemingly sensing Yu Chen's confusion and hesitation, the store manager smiled and said, "As long as you tell me your recent physical condition, we can recommend the most suitable project to you."

"OK."

In the end, Yu Chen chose the two-hour sauna for one person on the recommendation of the store manager.

It was indeed a well-paid treatment, and Yu Chen felt refreshed all over his body.

In a closed room with a relatively high temperature, Yu Chen sat on a soft seat and felt the wash of steam.

A large amount of steam washed away Yu Chen's stiff body, completely relaxing his muscles and speeding up the blood circulation in his body.

The fatigue was gone, Yu Chen regained his energy, and his whole person looked radiant.

After the recuperation, Yu Chen got dressed and left the recuperation shop with satisfaction.

The number of pedestrians on the street gradually increased, and it became a little more lively.

Yuchen's next stop was a daily necessities store owned by Richang Group.

The decoration and creations in the store are full of modern technology, integrating the latest generation of technology.

Wholly owned by the Spirit of Creation Organ, it is the largest daily home appliance company [Richang Group].

It was a legendary industry, as legendary as its creator [The Spirit of Creation Mechanism].

It uses super-era technology to change the daily habits of modern people. It allows the middle class and even the lower class to feel the convenience and novelty brought by technology.

With a thirst for knowledge, Yu Chen stepped into this easy-to-understand technological holy land without hesitation.

"Hello, I am the guide in the store. Do you want to experience the latest technology newly launched in our store?" The clerk wearing VR glasses walked to Yu Chen's side.

"Okay, I'll give it a try." Yu Chen readily accepted.

"Guest, please go this way." The clerk made a standard greeting gesture.

Yu Chen came to a container similar to a treatment chamber.

"This is the latest civilian daily technology, the stealth warehouse. It is mainly used to treat insomnia caused by electronic products. It is powered by renewable energy and can simulate more than a hundred relaxing scenes. At the same time, the gas and touch inside help

Sleep." The clerk explained dedicatedly.

"To put it simply, this thing is a new type of bed warehouse. If guests are interested, they can try it for free."

Yu Chen didn't refuse, and directly put on special underwear and entered the sneak cabin.

Yu Chen thought to himself, I wonder how it was created and what kind of feeling it will bring to me?

When Creation was activated, Yu Chen felt as if he were wearing VR glasses and traveling in the virtual world. But there was a slight difference. His body would not feel stiff or tired due to long-term stealth, but would feel more relaxed and comfortable.

The scenes are also very realistic and immersive.

For people with poor physical fitness, this is really a practical creation.

After an hour of experience, Yu Chen opened the container.

"The latest creations in your store are really eye-opening." Yu Chen sighed.

shop

The member said: "You have given me the award. These are all the work of the researchers, and we are just selling them as agents."

"Can I see the other creations in the store?"

"sure."

Yu Chen carefully looked at the various creations. Usually the string master always hid the creations from Yu Chen to watch secretly, but now Yu Chen finally had the opportunity to see different creations.

"It's really clever to put it together in this way. Why put the interface at the bottom? Oh, it turns out to speed up heat dissipation." Yu Chen was like an antique collector, carefully weighing the creation.

Yu Chen spotted the clerk standing behind him out of curiosity.

"I'm sorry, did I go too far?"

"It's okay. If I guess correctly, this customer is a very high-ranking mechanic." The clerk said calmly.

"Well, that's right."

The clerk smiled and said: "All the creations in our store are freely open to architects. As long as no damage is caused, you can visit them unlimitedly. Please feel free to study them."

"Okay, okay." Yu Chen was a little flattered.

After carefully observing several interesting creations, Yu Chen embarrassedly walked out of the store empty-handed.

When the time came to eleven o'clock, Yu Chen remembered something and walked towards the other side of the Central Commercial Street...

After many twists and turns, Yu Chen finally stopped at the door of a bookstore. This was the bookstore that Yu Chen saw by chance a few months ago - [Yiwenlu Bookstore].

From that day when he saw it by chance, Yu Chen went to the bookstore on average once a month to read the precious ancient books.

Although the boss is very mysterious and always wears a silver ball mask, like a hermit who hides his secrets, he is very kind and always waits for Yu Chen to leave before closing the door.

Yu Chen took a deep breath and pushed open the dark bronze door of the bookstore.

The decoration in the store still tends to be dark and scary. Elements such as pumpkin lanterns with ghost faces, crosses, vampires, and ghosts fill the entire bookstore.

The rotten floorboards made a squeaking sound, as if they would break if stepped on hard. The white foam on the surrounding exposed walls fell off, revealing the dark cement.

The shop owner insisted on his own opinion and did not change the layout to a mechanical style, as if he did not want to follow the times.

Perhaps because of the weird style and the strange boss, every time Yu Chen comes, the store is deserted. Apart from Yu Chen, only some readers who like ancient books or horror novels come.

Yu Chen nodded to the store manager who was motionless at the counter, and then walked into the bookshelves deep in the bookstore.

The light in the depths of the bookstore is too dim. If you want to read, you have to prepare a flashlight. If this kind of place is paired with thrilling pure music, it is the best place to shoot a horror movie.

Yu Chen was alone in the darkness, sitting on a rotten bench and reading books about mechanics with gusto.

There is a section in that book about how hundreds of years ago, in order to improve production efficiency, researchers from the Spirit of Creation Machine used new energy to create a power technology.

"Why do researchers at this time have to use such complicated processes? The obviously more time-saving solution was invented ten years ago." Yu Chen said to himself.

"What if they did this on purpose? Preconceived notions are very dangerous. Everyone must lower their profile in front of books." The store manager's voice came from behind.

What a surprise, the store manager who looks like a wooden man actually took the initiative to chat with Yu Chen today.

Yu Chen retorted smoothly: "Why are you so sure?"

"Because the last section of this book explains the reason. I have read all the books in the bookstore no less than ten times." The store manager's voice was heavy.

"Uh." Yu Chen was a little embarrassed.

"Don't pay attention to what I say, read your way. I just like reading too much." The store manager's silver mask reflected white light in the flashlight.

"Store manager, thank you for always." Yu Chen suddenly expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you for what?"

"I have been reading here for free and learning knowledge."

The store manager's silver mask showed no expression, and said calmly: "No, the purpose of this bookstore itself is not to make a profit. Some people may not be able to accept it even if it is free, but some people will happily accept it even if they pay to see it.

, this kind of thing is originally a voluntary principle."

"That's true."

The store manager said: "This young customer, the books you read every time you come here are probably related to mechanics and humanoids."

"Has it been discovered? Haha, because such detailed information cannot be found anywhere else." Yu Chen scratched his head.

"It seems that you are very interested in these things that have changed the past era. If you seize these opportunities, maybe you can master this era."

Yu Chen smiled bitterly and said: "It's not that exaggerated. I just want stability and it's enough not to be overwhelmed by the times."

"I used to be a prophet. In the past, God gave revelations and changed the world according to God's will. But now the belief in God has basically disappeared, and people have entered the super-technological era. They use their hands to imagine the future and create this ultimate power.

No longer controlled by God, but by seizing the power of creation, we can change the times."

"But that kind of creation is conditional, you can't do whatever you want."

"It all depends on people's nature. Exploring the roots of creation is the life pursuit of an engineer."

"Store manager, who are you?" Yu Chen couldn't help but be curious.

The store manager said calmly: "I'm just a strange store manager. A buryer in the old era and a gravedigger in the new era."

The store manager was unwilling to say more, and Yu Chen was too embarrassed to ask further.

"Remember, only those who grasp the core of the era can master this era."



Now Yu Chen's stomach was growling with hunger, and he was so absorbed in reading that he forgot about the time for lunch.

He still had to eat, so Yu Chen found a clean fast food restaurant to have lunch.

Yu Chen looked up at the sky. The sky was still full of dark clouds, but the rain was annoying and kept holding back.

I've almost relaxed enough and am ready to go back.

Before leaving, Yu Chen went to a milk tea shop he frequented and ordered a cup of pearl milk tea.

"Boss, I want a cup of pearl milk tea."

"okay."

Yu Chen was sitting on a high stool drinking warm milk tea, thinking a lot in his mind.

Create things, change the times, control the times... As an architect, I have extraordinary talents, so my power will be needed in the future.

No, from the moment Lingsi met him, he could no longer stay out of it.

When the milk tea in the cup bottomed out, Yu Chen's thoughts stopped.

Before leaving the milk tea shop, Yu Chen also brought a cup of milk tea each to Ling Si and Yu Ling.

I hope all is well.

Yu Chen took the disposable thermos cup containing milk tea and prepared to leave the milk tea shop.

And the downpour suddenly fell in the next second.
