Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

Jia Dongxu handed the money to Chen Xu reluctantly, his heart filled with grief and indignation.

Unfortunately, even though I was so angry that my teeth were itching, I didn't dare to say anything at this moment.

Chen Xu was obviously not interested in money. Money could not save his life immediately. He already felt like he was about to collapse, and it was a struggle that he could just stand here.

Seeing Chen Xu continue to stretch out his hand, Jia Dongxu was speechless. It would be fine if he just asked for money, but he also wanted food. Is this guy the reincarnation of a starving ghost?

Despite what he was thinking, Jia Dongxu still took out a bag of corn flour and handed it to Chen Xu, which weighed about three pounds.

Chen Xu was obviously impatient and snatched the bag.

"goodbye!"

Jia Dongxu looked at Chen Xu speechlessly as he walked towards the backyard without looking back. He didn't know what to say. How long had this guy been hungry for him to be so enthusiastic about seeing food than seeing money...

Thinking about how Chen Xu had extorted fifty yuan from his mother and master, Jia Dongxu felt a chill in his chest.

The most infuriating thing is that he didn't dare tell anyone. Not only could he not tell anyone, he also had to remind Chen Xu not to tell anyone. Otherwise, Jia Dongxu would be killed.

Jia Dongxu was naturally well aware of how gossipy the old ladies in the courtyards were. If this kind of thing were to get out, it would spread throughout Nanluoguxiang in less than half a day, and the whole city would probably know about it within a day at most.

At this moment, Jia Dongxu no longer had the intention to eavesdrop, and returned to the Jia family in a depressed mood.

Chen Xu didn't bother to care who was in the cellar. If he was still in good condition, he might have been in the mood to add fuel to the fire. But now that the person was almost dead, he had no mood to care about other things.

Go home and lock the door.

Chen Xu threw the corn flour into the space, and then threw the pots and pans into it, and then the water tank, coal briquettes, salt and other cooking utensils.

Since I am the master of the world and the space can act according to my will, it is reasonable for me to help cook a meal...

Chen Xu's guess was correct. Except for not being able to create something out of nothing, his world space could do anything as long as the conditions were met. Cooking was a piece of cake.

However, there is a prerequisite, which is that Chen Xu needs to be able to cook in the space himself.

For example, if you throw a full set of ingredients into it, the space will never be able to help him make a full banquet, because it lacks the necessary conditions, Chen Xu can't make it, and the space naturally can't make it out of nothing...

In fact, Chen Xu didn't know how to cook cornmeal, but it was in his memory of this life, so he had the conditions to do so.

Looking at the freshly cooked cornmeal porridge, Chen Xu's eyes lit up. At this moment, nothing was as effective as this porridge.

Without caring about the boiling hot paste in the bowl, Chen Xu couldn't wait to add some cold water into it and drank it in one gulp.

A few minutes later.

Chen Xu was lying in the space in a very ungraceful manner.

It feels so good to be alive.

Only at this moment did he feel that he had regained some strength.

Take a deep breath.

Chen Xu began to study this space.

As if he had learned it all by himself, with a thought, the World Stone appeared from his mind in his hand.

This also means that Black Stone is just a medium, not the space itself, but more like a key.

Fortunately, I can keep this thing in my mind without worrying about losing it.

Looking at the Blackstone that has been with him for more than 20 years, Chen Xu feels a bit complicated.

If I knew the function of this thing in my previous life, I wouldn't have to die...

I don't know if I can take this thing back with me.

Thinking that he was alone in his previous life, it seemed that it wouldn’t make much difference whether he went back or not, so Chen Xu felt relieved.

They come, the security.

After leaving the space, Chen Xu began to think about what to do next.

The courtyard is not a good place. All kinds of beasts are rampant. Although he is not the original Chen Xu, no one wants to stay in this hellhole.

I thought about moving to another place and then gave up.

I just came here and I am unfamiliar with the place. Even if I have the space in my hands, I don’t know where to go.

The fused memories do have a place for his hometown, but he is not the original owner and does not have much attachment to his hometown. Moreover, there is no one left in his hometown. His parents are dead. Apart from a few houses in the countryside, there are only some relatives left, and he doesn't know if they are still alive.

The remaining memories are the life experiences of the past ten years, which are also the most precious wealth left to Chen Xu.

With his living habits in the 21st century, if he didn't have these life experiences, he would probably be particularly conspicuous. This period was not very peaceful. People might report you directly if they saw you behaving strangely.

After searching his memory and finding no memory of having a mirror at home, Chen Xu took out the water tank from the space and decided to use it.

Looking at himself who is a few years younger, Chen Xu feels a little confused.

Why does this guy look so much like me in my previous life?

I remember watching a movie where it was said that there was a self in every parallel dimension. Could it be that this unlucky guy was the self in this world? But the time didn't match, it was off by half a century.

Chen Xu couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it any more.

He never pursues meaningless things.

Now I have some starting capital, which was the fifty yuan extorted from Jia Dongxu.

As for whether Jia Dongxu would retaliate, he couldn't control it now.

When the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers; when the water comes, we will block it with earth. We will deal with it when the time comes.

He was still a little confused at this moment. Fifty yuan was indeed not a small amount, almost two months' salary for Jia Dongxu, but these days, money without tickets was useless...

If he went to the black market, he couldn't buy anything with this little money. He already knew from his memory that food was hard to buy on the black market. One kilogram of food coupons cost three yuan on the black market, and cornmeal cost more than one yuan. Two-pound flour, white flour, and rice were even more outrageously expensive. Fifty yuan was of no use.

He could only eat cheap grain if there was a ration, but he had no job and his household registration was still in the rural area.

Chen Xu had a headache. He was convinced by this start.

I nearly starved to death when I first arrived. After finally surviving, I found out there were even worse troubles.

No wonder the original body died. Chen Xu felt that he would die soon.

"No, we have to think of a way."

Chen Xu said to himself, he didn't want to be the first time traveler to starve to death.

Unfortunately, there is too little information about the original body. Apart from doing odd jobs around the area, nothing else is known.

Nowadays, odd jobs are highly sought after. This guy couldn't compete with others, so naturally he had no income and eventually starved to death at home.

After thinking for a while, he couldn't come up with any useful ideas. There was too little information. He didn't even know the current situation in Sijiu City. It was useless to think about it. He might as well take a nap and go out to take a look during the day.

Having made up his mind, Chen Xu decisively went to bed.

The next second, Chen Xu climbed up with a dark face.

This kind of bedding was the first time he had seen it.

The original color could no longer be seen. Not only was it pitch black, but there were also several holes in it, and the cotton inside was exposed. It felt a lot emptier. Most importantly, the bedding gave off a disgusting smell.

How could Chen Xu accept this? He jumped up as soon as he lay down.

Noticing that the clothes he was wearing were almost the same style as his bedding, Chen Xu didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Only then did he remember what was going on.

No wonder there is less cotton in the bedding, it seems like it was made into a cotton-padded jacket.

This guy can actually sew, which is really a rare thing, which man can sew...
