Chapter 10 Money Is Outside

"Man, you're brave! I admire you so much!"

Simon patted Cheng An's shoulder very generously and praised his crucial flying knife move just now without hesitation.

"Well done." Darren Krause also praised it.

If there hadn't been that momentary pause, even if they didn't die this time, they would still have shed their skin.

Cheng An looked at the piece of flesh on the ground that was still writhing, twisting and turning like an earthworm, and asked uneasily: "It seems that you are not completely dead this time, right?"

"Friend, even if you don't believe in us, you still have to believe in the great God of Machinery!"

"But... they just came back to life..." Cheng An was still not reassured.

How about we burn it? He wanted to propose.

"Resurrection? In fact, it won't die at all." Simon chuckled, leaned down, and dug a few times into the pile of meat without hesitation.

He picked up two fist-sized pieces of meat from inside. They looked like hearts, beating stubbornly and slightly.

"There is no such thing as real death for ghost dolls. Always remember that dolls are just skins. They have no real life. They completely rely on this core to maintain their operations.

"In the core of the dolls, corresponding memories will be stored, making them appear to be able to act like humans. As long as the core is cleaned up a little and the overloaded resentment on it is removed, then you only need to find a new torso, and it can work again

."

"Is there such a thing?" Cheng An's eyes lit up, feeling like he had discovered a new world.

But when I think about it carefully, it seems that there is nothing special. Isn’t this the computer chip of an intelligent robot?

Of course, the 'robots' in this world look more realistic, but also much more dangerous.

Simon spoke very slowly. After speaking, he glanced at Cheng An, paused, and then said:

"You look young, but you don't look like a refugee. What's the matter? Are you unable to test your affinity for potions in Kowloon, unable to practice potions, and unwilling to be just an ordinary person for the rest of your life?

I just want to come to the Federation to try and see if I can get the grace of God and become an extraordinary person of the divine blood path?"

"……ah?"

Cheng An's eyes widened and he was speechless for a moment.

The pillow came to me as soon as I dozed off.

He was worried about how to reconcile his identity, but the result was good, the other party directly helped him think of all the reasons.

Simon laughed loudly and said: "Look at you, you have never seen the world. What's not to say? Chuitianjie is located at the intersection. Every year, I don't know how many people secretly come from Kowloon to practice religion. Of course, there are also

There are many people who failed in divine enlightenment and sneaked to Kowloon to try the magic medicine method without receiving divine favor."

Cheng An: "..."

It turns out that although Kowloon and the Federation are diametrically opposed to each other, the people at the bottom actually share what they need...

While he was thinking divergently, Darren suddenly said: "Did you know that if you want to become a Christian, you must have a federal household registration, and naturalization requires a recommender to vouch for you?"

"What? I don't know, and I haven't found a good recommender..."

Cheng An was shocked, half-seriously and half-fakely showing that he was at a loss.

"Okay, don't be so coy. Just because you didn't run away on your own just now and stayed to fight with us, I will help you."

Simon spoke, and as if he had been prepared, he found paper and pen from the inside of his coat, wrote a few words in a flash, and then signed his name.

"Simon Pierre"

After he signed, he muttered something, and a mark was automatically incinerated on the postmark of the envelope.

The combination of gears and hammers is clearly the emblem of the God of Machinery.

Below it is the word "Hai".

However, following the previous drama of "Heaven creates things and mechanical gods appear", Cheng An was not surprised that the word "Hai" appeared in this church. He even began to imagine what the situation would be like in other churches.

"Okay, when you get to Chuitian Realm, take this and register it at the local household registration office. They will take care of it," Simon said.

"This...I'm really grateful." Cheng An said from the bottom of his heart.

Simon said: "Of course, I can't help you in vain. In exchange, if you want to become a priest, please give priority to our Mechanical Church. For me, this can be regarded as completing an additional task."

"Okay, okay, praise the God of Machinery! I will definitely go!"

Cheng An nodded repeatedly, thinking that these extraordinary people are also very down-to-earth, and they actually have the task of recruiting new people...

While he was talking, a light suddenly appeared not far away, and then, an old-fashioned dump truck drove over at an extremely slow speed.

Cheng An recognized the unmanned ghost car at a glance, immediately chased after it, got into the cab and stopped, then loudly said: "That's it! When I met two ghost dolls, they looked at

No different from ordinary people, camping and resting with a team of traveling traders.

"Later, they let two dolls get into my car on the grounds that the women in the team needed a better riding environment, and they themselves took the opportunity to sneak away. This was almost murder!"

Cheng An got a little angry when he mentioned this.

Simon and Darren nodded: "So that's it. We know it. Then we are on our way. I hope to see you again in the Sky Realm, my friend! May the God of Machinery be with you!"

Simon and Darren did not ask any more questions about the matter, but bowed down in a friendly manner, and then continued walking in the direction of Kowloon.

Cheng An watched them leave, the childish expression on his face slowly dissipating.

"You helped me because you think highly of me? Hehe, I'm afraid it's because of the bounty they mentioned. Whether you use the two doll cores to complete the bounty or sell them, you can definitely get a lot of money."

Cheng An didn't know what kind of purchasing power five thousand crystals was equivalent to, but it was obviously not too low.

As for the thermostat's "worth 100,000 yuan, price but no market", it is obviously not the same currency measurement unit as this crystal.

But he didn't hold a grudge, instead he felt relieved because of it.

Nothing in the world is good without reason. At this moment, it is precisely because of the relationship of interest that he can accept the other party's help without any scruples.

Then, Cheng An walked to the place in the distance where the pickup truck was smashed into pieces and looked at it for a while.

There was only a pile of rags here. After rummaging for a while, I found a pink bracelet.

As for those thermostatic suits, some other accessories, watches and other items, they were unfortunately burned in the explosion, which made him feel very heartbroken.

"You have no money left, and you still have to deal with a shady person. This is the beginning of hell."

Cheng An felt quite bitter in his heart, so he drove an old-fashioned dump truck and set off towards the Heavenly Realm.

After driving for nearly an hour, the scenery of yellow sand and ice and snow came to an end.

The temperature became normal in an instant, and the body felt comfortable. There was no longer that burning pain, or the severe cold that would turn a person into ice in just a few minutes.

A few old buildings and houses appeared sparsely ahead.

"Finally we have left the first line of the sky. This is the Chuitian realm? It should be the suburbs of the city, right?"

Looking at the style, it is somewhat similar to the style of Cheng An's previous life in the 1980s and 1990s. Every household had walls as high as one person.

Gray telegraph poles stand tall, and the asphalt road is in relatively good condition without too many potholes to make it bumpy.

The street lamps were dimmed every now and then, and from time to time, the sound of dogs barking could be heard from the yard on the roadside.

Cheng An slowed down and looked around with some emotion, appreciating this long-lost popularity.

Snapped!

A woman slammed open the window, wrapped in white and red pajamas and yelled at him: "tnnd, you don't sleep at night, you drive a tractor here, right? Do you have a tutor?"

Cheng An looked over and found that this was a middle-aged woman with an obvious yellow appearance. She couldn't help but smile happily and shouted the same loudly: "Auntie, my dump truck is a serious truck, not a tractor! Sorry to bother you.

You’re sorry!”

The woman looked at his delicate and fair face, was stunned for a moment, cursed, "This young man is crazy," closed the window and went back.

Cheng An is in a good mood.

Farther away, the shadow of a huge city can be seen in the distance under the moonlight.

It is taller and majestic than the mountains, very majestic. At a glance, it towers into the clouds, as if it is connected to the moon.

Some small three-wheelers transporting goods began to appear scattered on the roadside.

Further forward, there are more and more dump trucks like the one driven by Cheng An, but they are all parked on the side of the road, and you can see people sleeping in the cab.

The only rare thing is private cars. It seems that I have never seen one. Maybe the world is not interested in driving private cars out at night.

Return countdown:15:02:22↓

It's past eleven o'clock at midnight.

Cheng An successfully arrived at Chuitian Realm, a giant city on the federal border.

Then, he was turned away.

"Access is restricted and entry into the city is prohibited after ten o'clock?"

Huge warning signs hang on the roadside.

Cheng An stopped by a moat, and the huge stone gate on the other side of the bridge was closed.

He looked back at the guys who parked cars on the side of the road from time to time. He pulled over without any complaints, turned off the engine, opened the windows to get some air, and lay leisurely in the cab, looking at the giant city quietly.

In fact, in the distance, you can still see buildings high in the mountains reaching into the sky.

But when I got closer, I couldn't see anything.

Because what stands in front of us is an extremely exaggerated city wall.

Looking up, you can't see the horizon, which is awe-inspiring.

"It has to be over a hundred meters high. The city is so huge. How much material would be used to build such an exaggerated city wall? It's scary to think about it.

"There is a high probability that this was built by the Mechanical Church, or even better, it might be a miracle of the God of Machinery? In an extraordinary world like this, the so-called gods should also be powerful humans or other animals...

"Hope everything goes well tomorrow...

"I don't know what other walking encounters are like. There should be many people like me who are 'reincarnated' into extraordinary beings themselves, such as the two quarreling guys, Walker Yousan and Uncle Wang next door.

"Have they lost their supernatural powers like me?

"Or am I the only one in this predicament?"

Becoming a universal walker, on the first day in the dream world,

Cheng An's feeling is,

So sleepy, so tired, so hungry.

He endured exhaustion and hunger and fell into a deep sleep.





In the early morning of the next day, the cool breath woke up the earth and the businessmen and drivers sleeping on the earth.

Tuk-tuk-tuk! Tuk-tuk-tuk!

The sound of tapping on the window rang from my ears.

Cheng An didn't sleep deeply at all. As soon as he heard the frightening slapping sound, he stood up in excitement, and the thought of being tortured by two terrifying ghost puppets came to his mind.

Fortunately, the person tapping the window was not a scary monster.

She is a young girl, about fifteen years old, who is wearing old but clean autumn clothes that have been washed to white, pushing a small cart to sell food.

Waves of fragrance came out from the bamboo basket covered with white cloth.

This made Cheng An, who was already hungry, couldn't help but swallow.

"Sir, do you want to buy breakfast? We have meat buns, steamed buns, soy milk, milk, and noodles." The girl selling breakfast took the opportunity to recommend.

"Well, give me two..."

Cheng An just wanted some steamed buns and a bottle of milk, but suddenly he remembered that he had no money, so he turned over the dump truck and several cupboards, but found nothing.

"You jumped out of the car and didn't forget to take the money with you, that's pretty cool."

Cheng An cursed secretly, then looked at the girl outside the window for a long time before saying, "Sister, can I get credit? I don't have any money with me."

"No, there are still many people waiting. If you don't buy it, I will go elsewhere." She said and started to push the cart away.

"Wait a minute, don't leave. I'm here to run a business. Let's exchange things for things."

"That's okay."

The girl stopped leaving, "Hurry up, others are still waiting."

Cheng An quickly jumped out of the car, lifted the tarpaulin behind the car, and thought about getting some porcelain, tea or something to have breakfast.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the tarpaulin was opened, the inside was also moved upside down.

"Beasts... don't let me meet you again!"

Cheng An looked up to the sky and sighed, and then asked the little girl selling buns: "If this tarpaulin is sold, it will be worth some money. Can I exchange it for you two buns?"

The girl thought about it carefully, and then carefully observed the tarpaulin with green as the main tone.

Just on the side Cheng An opened, there were at least eight or nine holes as big as the mouth of a bowl.

"..." The girl looked over stubbornly and doubtfully.

"..." Cheng An opened his mouth, licked his lips that were dry due to thirst, waved his hands and said, "Forget it, no, I've delayed your business, I apologize to you."

He decided to go to the city hungry first and find a place to work as a temporary worker. If that didn't work, he could just find a place to sell the dump truck and the thermostat.

Can a living person choke to death with just one meal?

As soon as I turned around, I saw the girl taking out a steamed bun, a meat bun, and a packet of soy milk, and handed them over.

"you……"

At this moment, Cheng An felt the beauty of human nature and felt warm in his heart.

There are not only terrifying monsters and cunning extraordinary beings in this world, but also ordinary people of flesh and blood!

"Thanks!"

Cheng An swallowed most of the steamed bun in one bite.

But he saw the girl coming over with a long plastic tube as thick as a baby's arm.

"Open your gas tank cap, and I'll take a sip of gasoline from you. It's the rules of the world, and we don't owe each other anything." The girl held the straw in her hand, like a hero standing in the light.
