It was another sunny morning, Chen Xu woke up and stretched comfortably. He got out of bed, opened the curtains, and let the golden sun shine on his face, so warm that he couldn't help but close his eyes. Enjoy the relaxation and tranquility of this moment.
He is more and more used to such a leisurely life.
There was the sound of water dripping on the ground outside. It was Luo Xiyun watering the vegetables planted by the roadside.
He turned around, picked up a pen, and wrote the number 120 on the wall.
This is the 120th day since entering the dreamland, and two-thirds of it has passed.
Three months have passed since Luo Xiyun's arrival.
He brushed his teeth, washed his face, shaved, changed his clothes, and ate breakfast as usual. Then he put a hiking bag on his back, pushed open the door and went out.
As usual, Luo Xiyun had finished watering and returned to her house.
The street outside has undergone earth-shaking changes from when he was alone three months ago, with various plants occupying most of the space. Only narrow passages are left.
Among them, it is mainly a variety of vegetables, and there are some flowers and plants around it. Arranged very neatly, these vegetables seem to be planted in a garden.
This is naturally Luo Xiyun's handwriting. Except that he brought the vegetable seeds, she brought the flower pots and soil from the surrounding flower shops, and she usually takes care of them.
Chen Xu walked out of the vegetable garden and came to the side alley on the left, which became his garage.
He chose the SUV he drives most often. In the past four months, he has driven any luxury car he can come across.
He has to take a lot of things with him when he goes out, so a small car is naturally not suitable. Trucks are less comfortable, so a large SUV is the best choice.
Before setting off, he took out a very simple hand-drawn map, which was a treasure hunt map drawn by himself.
After Luo Xiyun's arrival, his usual workload was reduced by half, and his free time increased. So, he started the journey of treasure hunting. This crude picture in hand is the result of the past few months.
"The surrounding area is almost explored, let's go to a farther place this time."
He already had a goal in mind and drove the car all the way to the destination.
XX Road is the most famous and busiest commercial street in the city. Because of the relatively long distance, he hadn't explored here before.
After parking the car, he took the tools, got out of the car and walked towards the nearest commercial building.
Entering the gate, it was pitch black inside. He put on a headlamp and held a light in his hand, and at a glance he saw several "lucky box" vending machines next to him.
"It's another trick to cheat money."
He said so, but stopped. Putting down the tool bag in his hand, he first put on the mask, then took out a hammer, and smashed the outer glass with a bang.
A cloud of dust rose. No one has cleaned it for several months, and there is a thick layer of dust everywhere, and it will fly all over the sky when it is moved.
He took a few steps back, waited for the dust to disperse, and then stepped forward to take out the boxes inside, and opened them one by one.
"Mask, what brand is this, I've never heard of it."
"The phone case is worth a few dollars if it is more."
"Headphones, brand-name."
"A certain treasure's 50 yuan coupon, hehe..."
...
Chen Xu opened one and just complained.
This kind of lucky box vending machine has suddenly become popular recently. Scan the code for 30 yuan, and you can get the box. According to the promotion, there may be mobile phones, SLRs, tablets, etc. inside.
However, in the past few months, he has broken open dozens of such machines, and he has never seen any of the things advertised on them, and they are all these less valuable commodities.
When he took down the penultimate box, it felt heavier.
"It should be perfume." He guessed in his heart that there were too many boxes opened, and he could roughly guess what kind of item it was based on the weight of the boxes.
After opening the box, he couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw that there was actually an Apple X mobile phone box inside.
"It's not an empty box, is it?"
He doubted very much that an Apple X cost about 10,000 yuan, would the people who put in these vending machines be willing to spend such a large amount of money
He quickly unpacked it, and there was actually a mobile phone inside, which looked brand new. After turning it on, he quickly entered a page to be activated.
He followed the prompts, activated the phone, and entered the system. I checked the serial number in the settings, and it matches the outer box.
"I hope it's not some counterfeit version." He was still a little skeptical, but he still put the phone into the backpack behind his back, and wrote down the location of the vending machine and the number of the box on the treasure hunt map.
He can basically be sure that everything in the dream can match reality.
In other words, the things that can be found in the dream must exist in the same place after returning to reality.
For example, the Lucky Box unpacks a cell phone. Then, in reality, there must be a mobile phone in the lucky box of this number in this vending machine.
That's why he called such an action a treasure hunt.
In the past few months, as long as he can spare time, he will come out to hunt for treasure. It's just that the gains are not great.
To put it simply, the wealth of the entire world here is waiting for him to get it. But no matter how much wealth there is in the dream, it's meaningless if you can't take it out.
Likewise, it doesn't make sense for him to know which houses hold the most cash and whose safes hold the most jewels. You can't wait for him to wake up and go steal it, it's really that his head was caught by the door.
In fact, there are not many opportunities to make money that can be taken advantage of, and it is completely luck.
After all, there are too few projects like "Lucky Box". He smashed dozens of vending machines before he could issue a mobile phone. The odds of winning the lottery are really impressive.
Then he unpacked the rest of the boxes, and with nothing else to gain, he moved on.
The whole building is pitch-black and dusty everywhere, which looks like a horror movie. Chen Xu casually wandered around the first few floors, then withdrew. It feels so depressing here.
After leaving the building, he felt a sense of relief, thinking that he should avoid going to such commercial buildings in the future. Anyway, what's inside is of no value to him.
Next, he walked into the pedestrian street, looking at the pavement covered with dust and fallen leaves, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional. In just a few months, the originally beautifully decorated street has been abandoned like this.
boom.
He didn't take a few steps when he heard a muffled sound, and when he looked up, a thick layer of dark clouds appeared in the sky at some point.
It's going to rain soon.
