Chapter 179: Return to Tang City (1)
The World University Tournament would start in October.
It was still early.
After filling in the form and registering, Chen Yu had forgotten about it.
At the moment, he had more important things to do.
Head to Tang City!
Naturally, his target was the exotic land on Bodhi Island.
He wanted to explore the relationship between the ‘real world’ and the ‘alien land’ in detail.
At the same time, he wanted the Wraiths inside to increase his [Spirit] attribute…
After all, he was going to cultivate both Qi and physical martial arts in the future, and the growth of his [Spirit] was extremely important.
With the BB motherboard and longsword on his back, Chen Yu picked up more than 2,700 pages of thick books. He changed his clothes, put on a mask, and jogged all the way out of Beijing University.
After getting into a taxi, he did not rush to the train station immediately. Instead, he returned to his new home.
He entered the residential area and went upstairs.
He took out his keys and opened the door. All he saw was Mother Chen sleeping on the sofa in the living room.
“Oh.”
When she heard the noise, Mother Chen rubbed her eyes and got up. When she saw that it was Chen Yu, she immediately woke up. “Xiao Yu?”
“Yes, continue sleeping, Mom.”
“I’ve slept for a long time.” Mother Chen quickly went forward and took the book from Chen Yu’s hands. “Aiyo, it’s so heavy.”
“You can put it on the ground. I still need to take it away later.”
“Why are you back? Is the school on vacation?”
“I’m not on vacation. I just took some time to come back and take a look.” Taking off his mask, Chen Yu stretched his neck and looked at the second bedroom. “Where’s my sister?”
“Your sister went to the supermarket downstairs to rob something.”
Chen Yu: “??”
She had just regained her energy not long ago, but that woman had already started to act like a robber?
“No… She is indeed my sister.”
Chen Yu gave her a thumbs up. “Although it is not a punishment for a martial artist, your daughter went to rob someone. Aren’t you being too calm?”
“Rob?” Mother Chen was stunned. “What robbery? I mean, she went to the supermarket downstairs to rob something.”
“Isn’t that the same thing?”
“…Supermarket, open for business. Recharging 1,000 yuan to rob for a minute.”
“Oh!” Chen Yu suddenly understood. “It’s a supermarket event.”
“What do you think? Hmm… Also, what did you say about martial artists?”
“It’s nothing.” Chen Yu put on his mask again, turned around, and pushed the door open. “I’m going to find my sister. I’ll be back later.”
“Then put down the sword on your back. It’s too much of a hindrance…”
“No need.”
Taking the elevator downstairs, Chen Yu asked around a few times and found the supermarket that had just opened.
Outside the supermarket, the sky was filled with gongs and drums, the sound of firecrackers, the fluttering of red flags, and a sea of people.
Not to mention the residents, even the news team from the television station had come. The scene was very lively.
Whoosh.
With a somersault, Chen Yu jumped onto the top of a street lamp and looked down.
Soon, his sharp eyes found Chen Siwen in the crowd.
Whoosh!
With another somersault, Chen Yu nimbly shuttled through the crowd, moved behind Chen Siwen, and directly hugged her.
“Hey, Guess who I am… Mm.”
Dong!
Before he could finish his words, Chen Yu squatted down with his hand on his stomach.
[Injured: Qi and Blood +877]
After putting away her elbow, Chen Siwen turned around with a cold smile. When she saw that it was Chen Yu, she was stunned. “Eh?”
Chen Yu: “…”
Chen Siwen: “Why is it you? I thought it was a hooligan.”
“Even if it was a hooligan… There’s no need to kill him, right…”
“Are you alright, Xiao Yu?” She hurriedly pulled Chen Yu up. Chen Siwen sized him up with concern. “Why did you hug me? There are so many people here. I definitely have to fight back. Do you need to go to the hospital to take a look?”
“I do…”
“Then you can go by yourself. I’m still waiting to buy it.”
Chen Yu: “…”
[Injured: Spirit +5]
“This supermarket has a medical area. I can even help you get some bottles, bandages, glucose, and coffin boards.”
[Injured: Spirit +4]
“Sis,” Chen Yu said, “I’ll stay by your side for three years. I can become a great mage.”
“You can still complain about it. It should be fine now.” Taking off Chen Yu’s mask, Chen Siwen frowned slightly. “Aren’t you in school? Are you on vacation?”
“I just miss you. I came back to see you.”
“The first seven?”
Chen Yu: “…”
[Hurt: Spirit +11]
“I’m busy now.” Chen Siwen tiptoed and looked at the crowd. “The robbery is going to start soon. I’ve already filled in 1,000 yuan.”
“What kind of event is this?”
“Tesco’s Beijing supermarket is opening for business. By charging 1,000 yuan worth of shopping cards, you can participate in the robbery. You can rob any goods on the spot, but it’s only limited to one minute,” Chen Siwen explained.
Chen Yu tilted his head. “If the items you rob aren’t worth 1,000 yuan, won’t you lose money?”
“No. The balance in the recharge card will not change. The robbery is just an extra event. You can earn as much as you rob.”
“I’ll sweep until I’m dead!” Chen Yu understood. “Then I want to play too.”
Hearing that, Chen Siwen raised her eyebrows slightly. “That’s great. Hurry up and charge 1,000. We’ll fight for it together.”
“No problem.”
Nodding, Chen Yu got out of the crowd and went around a big circle. He came to the checkout counter at the side entrance of the supermarket. “I want to charge 1,000 too.”
“Yes, Sir. Online payment will sweep this side.”
“Okay, I’ve done it.”
“This is a shopping card. Keep it well. The event is about to start. Please speed up.”
“Okay.”
Taking the shopping card, Chen Yu returned to Chen Siwen’s side and asked, “There are so many people, but we can’t rob them?”
“Most of them are just here to watch the show. If you charge 1,000 yuan, there will be a few hundred people. Moreover, only 40 people will be allowed to enter each time. There is a lot of room for the event. Let’s see how many things we can rob.”
Chen Yu looked Chen Siwen up and down. “Looks like… Sister, your control over your body is pretty good.”
“It’s already perfect.” Chen Siwen gestured with her biceps.
“Do you still need to go to the toilet to take a leak?”
Pa!
[Injured: Qi and Blood +310]
Covering his left eye, Chen Yu nodded in satisfaction. “It’s still alright. Your recovery is really good.”
“Cut the stomach!” At this time, at the entrance of the supermarket. A middle-aged man with a big belly held a microphone and said, “Cut the stomach and be quiet for a moment. The activity is about to begin. Please line up and enter in order. For each activity, put in 40 people…”
“Squeeze!”
Siwen Chen’s eyes lit up, and she pulled Yu Chen Up.
Many old men and old ladies followed closely behind.
That skill, that speed, that skeleton, that footwork… All of them were athletes! They were in high spirits, and they walked like dragons and tigers! They swept away the declining situation on the buses and subway stations.
Instantly, the crowd in front of them was pushed to the side.
“F*ck! Who is it?”
“Don’t squeeze! What the f*ck are you squeezing?”
“Ah! Help! Who is touching me?”
“You old man, who’s touching you?”
“I saw it! Aren’t you touching it right there…”
In the shuttle, Chen Yu followed behind Chen Siwen. “Sis, isn’t it bad to cut the line?”
“How is this cutting the line? There are so many people, how can there be a line? Can’t we wait to find out about taking advantage of others? The further we go, the fewer good things there are in the supermarket.”
“…Okay. This is the wisdom of a housewife.”
Pa!
[Qi and Blood +206…]
The chaos of the scene also made the middle-aged boss a little flustered. He quickly shouted, “Everyone, don’t fight. Everyone has a share, everyone has a share…”
“Did you hear that?” Chen Siwen turned around. “If we’re late, there will be nothing left.”
Chen Yu: “…”
After a few minutes of struggle.
In the end, Chen Yu and Chen Siwen squeezed into the first group.
Standing in front of the quarantine zone and looking at the clean and tidy interior of the supermarket, Chen Siwen rubbed her hands together. “Xiao Yu, since we’re here, we can’t come here for nothing. Look up and look at the fourth floor. Do you see that off-road motorcycle in the French window?”
“I see it.” Chen Yu looked up. “Isn’t it too far away? Eh? Is the motorcycle also a commodity?”
“Of course.” Chen Siwen nodded. “Anything in the supermarket, as long as you bring it back to the entrance of the first floor in one minute, it’s yours.”
Hearing that, Chen Yu extended his thumb and aimed ahead to measure the distance. “Hmm… From here to the stairs, it’s about fifty meters. Going up to the fourth floor and carrying the motorcycle down isn’t very difficult.”
“You’re not allowed to use your strength.”
“F*ck, that’s ridiculous.”
“How about it?” Chen Siwen smiled, revealing her small canine teeth. “Do you dare to compete?”
“Compete? Between us?”
“Yes. It just so happens that we’re in the same group. Let’s compete to see who can bring back the most expensive goods in this supermarket.”
“How heavy is the motorcycle?”
“It’s a military-grade cross-country motorcycle. It’s very heavy. If you don’t use your strength, you won’t be able to carry it if you’re lower than a Level 4 fighter.” Chen Siwen stretched her muscles. “But I can. I know that you can too.”
“Your physical fitness… Has really improved a lot.” Chen Yu was deep in thought.
“So… Let’s have a competition?”
“Come.” Chen Yu nodded and began to twist his joints.
…
After the scene was stabilized, the middle-aged boss let out a sigh of relief. He wiped his sweat and pointed at the first group of customers. “The first batch of activities is about to begin. Please enter the Quarantine Zone and don’t panic…”
Following the crowd, Chen Yu and Chen Siwen stepped into the supermarket and stood in front of the entrance hall.
On the left and right of the entrance hall were ten tall and straight martial artist security guards.
Chen Yu looked around and clicked his tongue.
A private supermarket that hired martial artists as security guards were obviously outfitted.
They must have borrowed it from the security company to maintain the order of the activities…
“Cut the stomach.”
The middle-aged boss held the microphone, held the elegant lady boss’s hand, and brought 20 graceful waiters, he came in front of everyone and said, “First of all, thank you for your support for Tesco Supermarket. Tesco Group has specialized in supermarkets for more than a decade, just so that the common people can buy, taste, and eat the largest amount of lime.”
“This opening event is also to give back to society. I hope that everyone will not argue and remain calm in the game. Although the goods upstairs are better than the ones downstairs, we must act within our capabilities and not return empty-handed.”
“Of course.” The middle-aged boss paused slightly, he pointed at the martial artist security guards on both sides and said, “The event has its rules. When one minute is up, those who do not return to the lobby area will be considered as failures. No matter what goods you take, you must put them back. Using force without permission is also against the rules.”
“Finally, on behalf of all the employees of Tesco Group, I would like to thank everyone for their support. I hope that everyone will have fun and be satisfied!”
After saying that, he bowed to the participants.
The employees behind him also bowed.
Kacha!
Kacha! Kacha!
The reporters outside the door immediately pressed the shutter and recorded this scene as the material for tomorrow’s advertisement.
Standing up straight, the middle-aged boss led everyone back and raised his hand as he shouted, “Everything in the supermarket is a commodity! If you snatch it, you will earn it! Tesco’s grand opening guest! Counting down to three!”
“Three!”
Chen Siwen lowered her body and gathered strength in her legs.
“Two!”
Chen Yu also stabilized his center of gravity and waited for his strength to explode.
“One!”
The siblings looked at each other.
“Begin!”
Bang! Bang!
Before everyone could react, Chen Yu and Chen Siwen suddenly shot off and took off!
Like arrows leaving the bow, they only left afterimages.
Their strong physiques completely withstood the load of the instantaneous acceleration.
However…
Their sprinting directions were completely different.
Chen Siwen rushed towards the stairs.
Chen Yu… rushed towards the lady boss.
Everyone: “???”
