Cheng Yu walked into a room in the wooden house. There was a half-meter-high stone tablet in the room. The surface of the stone tablet was covered with dust, and a line of small characters could be vaguely seen.

"Read the code word [Order, the cornerstone of social stability] to the stone tablet, and you can leave the maze."

Cheng Yu read the code word to the stone tablet, whoosh, and turned into a white light and left the ninth floor of the maze.

A few seconds passed.

Cheng Yu appeared in the woods outside the maze.

The air was fresh and pleasant, and the afterglow of the setting sun stretched the shadows of the trees long.

"Finally out."

Cheng Yu took a deep breath, smiled, and walked quickly towards the maze.

I haven't seen Mina and Ivennie for several days, and I really miss them.

There are many adventurers from the nearby main city in the open space in front of the maze.

Adventurers set up stalls on the open space to sell gold and silver jewelry, weapons and equipment, magic props, monster crystal cores, etc. obtained in the maze. From a distance, it looks like a lively market.

The weapons, equipment and magic props found by these adventurers are all low-level magic props from the first or second level of the maze.

Arriving at the "bustling market" in front of the maze, Cheng Yu walked to the tent he had built before, opened the tent curtain, and did not see Mina and Ivennie.

He looked around again.

He glanced around and saw Mina and Ivennie standing in front of the huge stone door.

It was evening now, and adventurers were coming out of the maze one after another.

Mina and Ivennie stood on tiptoe, stretched their necks, and looked for something in the crowded crowd.

In the days when Cheng Yu disappeared, the two waited at the entrance of the maze every day, hoping to see Cheng Yu coming out.

Cheng Yu walked behind the two quietly, patted Mina and Ivennie on the shoulders from behind, and said with a smile: "Beauty, do you want a date?"

"Dead hooligan, get out."

Mina scolded fiercely.

In the past few days, she has met many people who came to chat up, which made Mina very disgusted.

But the next second, Mina recognized Cheng Yu's voice and turned her head to look behind her.

The moment she saw Cheng Yu, Mina's eyes widened, and an unprecedented ecstasy appeared on her face. She jumped on Cheng Yu excitedly, hugged Cheng Yu's neck with her slender arms, clamped Cheng Yu's waist with her legs, and wagged her tail happily.

"Cheng Yu, I thought I would never see you again."

Mina rubbed Cheng Yu's cheek affectionately with her head.

Cheng Yu remembered that he used to study in the county and went home once a month during the holidays.

Every time he went home, the dog at home would run to greet him from a distance, jumping and jumping beside him, and wagging his tail almost spiraling up to the sky.

Mina's enthusiastic reaction is a bit like the dog she raised before. Maybe she is the so-called canine girlfriend.

Ivennie was not as enthusiastic as Mina, but she was still very happy to see Cheng Yu. She hugged Cheng Yu's right arm in her arms and leaned her head on Cheng Yu's shoulder. "It's great that you can come back safely."

"We will continue to sell barbecue tomorrow." Cheng Yu looked at Mina's light red eyes in front of him.

"Yeah."

Mina nodded and put her cheek against Cheng Yu's cheek.

"When I came here just now, I saw that the grove over there was more hidden. Let's go to the grove over there at night."

"What are you going to do in the grove?" Ivennie asked puzzledly.

Ahem~

Cheng Yu coughed twice tactically, "Look at the stars."

Ivennie looked at the grove not far away and became more confused. Can you really see the stars in such a dense forest?

...

The sky in the east was pale, and there was a chill in the air.

Early in the morning, the adventurers began to explore the maze again.

Cheng Yu set up a barbecue stall at the entrance of the maze, with green smoke and the smell of meat everywhere.

Adventurers passing by the barbecue stall would not be able to resist buying two skewers.

At this time, fourteen people in uniform walked to the barbecue stall. They were the people of the Order Cult.

The old priest Valk asked Cheng Yu with shock in his eyes, "Friend Cheng Yu, didn't you accidentally enter the sixth floor of the maze? How did you get out?"

Cheng Yu couldn't tell Valk that he had cleared the maze and took away the most valuable treasure in the secret realm of this maze.

So he made up an excuse, "I wandered around the sixth floor for several days and finally cracked a mechanism. I used that mechanism to leave the maze directly."

"Didn't you encounter any ferocious monsters during that time?" Valk was a little unbelievable.

Cheng Yu pretended to smile, "I was lucky and didn't encounter any."

Fierce monsters? He bribed the monsters in the maze with barbecue. Without the help of those monsters, he would never have been able to pass the maze.

"Such good luck, you are not a believer in the god of luck, right??” Valk guessed.

People who believe in the God of Luck usually have better luck than ordinary people.

“No, I’m just lucky.”

“Congratulations on your safe escape.”

Valk was also happy for Cheng Yu, “We each want four skewers of barbecue, a total of fifty-six skewers.”

“No problem.”

Cheng Yu started to barbecue.

Barbecue costs twenty copper coins per skewer, and fifty-six skewers are one thousand one hundred and twenty copper coins. Valk took out eleven silver coins and twenty copper coins and gave them to Ivennie.

“My dear Cheng Yu, your seasoning bottles are messed up again. I will help you sort them out. "

Valk felt uncomfortable when he saw the messy arrangement of the seasoning bottles on the grill.

Place the seasoning bottles in order from small to large.

Then he took out a ruler and measured the distance between each seasoning bottle to ensure that the spacing between each seasoning bottle was equal, with a satisfied smile on his face.

Ten minutes later, Cheng Yu gave the fifty grilled skewers to Valk and others.

Valk and others left.

Looking at Valk's departing back, Ivenie asked Cheng Yu in confusion, "Why does Mr. Valk help you arrange the seasoning bottles every time?"

"He is sick."

"What disease?"

"Obsessive-compulsive disorder. "

While Valk and the others were walking and eating barbecue, Cheng Yu gained positive emotion value.

After Valk and the others left, a team of three adventurers came over.

One of the young men with gorgeous long hair smiled and said, "Friend, we meet again. I want five skewers of barbecue."

Cheng Yu recognized the long-haired young man. His name was Roy, the son of the Lord of Snow City, a famous poet in Snow City, and they had taken the first-level magician test together last time.

"How do you three divide the five skewers of barbecue?"

"I'll eat three skewers, and the two of them will eat one skewer each." Roy replied.

The two were Roy's followers.

"Okay, a total of one hundred copper coins."

Iwenni was responsible for collecting money, and Roy took out a silver coin and gave it to Iwenni.

"By the way, did you find the treasure? "Cheng Yu asked.

"The treasure I'm looking for is different from others, so I've gained a lot."

"What treasure are you looking for?"

"The exquisite reliefs in the maze, the mysterious and ancient statues, all of which contain rich cultural heritage and are excellent materials for writing poems."

"Uh... the treasure you're looking for is indeed different from others."

Other adventurers enter the maze to find weapons and magic props, but Roy is more like a tourist.

Cheng Yu grilled five skewers for Roy.

Roy and the other two left.

Cheng Yu continued to sell barbecue, and his positive emotion value increased rapidly...
