I, the one in the heavens, am here to protect my bottom line in all realms.

Chapter 299 Taking advantage of the loophole

The male owner was obviously jealous, but he seemed to be holding back because of something, which made Zhang Chengyuan curious. He then checked and found out that it was because of the rules. The novice copy was not difficult and did not allow too many weird props.

In this copy, the strange props are given out according to the number of people, which means that this copy only has five strange props, and they have already got four of them, so only one of the remaining three rooms has something.

She rolled her eyes and came up with a way to exploit the loophole, and vaguely reminded him, "You have so few props on you."

After saying this with a sigh, he turned and went upstairs.

Jiang Siyou and Jiang Suyue both looked at her subconsciously, and both felt that it was a bit strange to say this at this time, but when they thought about it carefully, there was no problem.

But the male owner was different. He seemed to realize suddenly that the rules were that players could not be given or traded with weird props, but there was no rule that they could not prepare weird props for themselves. His daughter's doll and his wife's kitchen knife were both taken away, so it was normal for them to buy weird props for themselves again.

His daughter's doll was traded before and he was warned. If he hadn't argued that his daughter was held hostage and he was forced to trade, the matter would have been dropped. He would not have remembered this rule so well.

Now it just happened that he had an inspiration. He took note of it secretly and thought carefully about the feasibility. If this matter could be accomplished, he would need Yuan Cheng's cooperation. He would go over and try it in the evening.

At night, after he shared the energy beads with his family, he asked his daughter to take her strange prop comb.

Then, under the puzzled looks of others, he turned weird and ran straight to the door of Zhang Chengyuan's room with his daughter.

After Zhang Chengyuan came back, he asked Jiang Siyou to go back and wait in the room alone without closing the door.

The man was about to knock on the door, but he didn't expect it to open as soon as he touched it. In an instant, the words she had said casually before rang in his mind.

It turned out that he was not just saying it casually, he motioned for his daughter to come in and attack her.

Although Lili didn't know what happened to her father, she knew for sure that her father had reached some kind of agreement with someone. She didn't ask any questions and went in obediently.

Zhang Chengyuan was already lying on the bed with his eyes closed as if he was asleep, but his body was sideways with his back to the door.

Lili approached silently and touched her hair with the comb. The effect of the strange prop was activated and she was frozen for ten seconds.

She was about to turn around to seek her father's instructions, but she saw the energy beads under her pillow. She hesitated for a second, lifted up the corner of the pillow, took all the energy beads and ran away.

After running out of the door, without even talking, he pulled his father downstairs to the bedroom and closed the door.

She listened carefully and calculated the time. The effect of the strange prop should have expired long ago, so why was there still no movement?

The man tried hard to suppress the upward curve of his mouth, patted his daughter's shoulder and asked, "What did you take?"

Lili was still a little worried, but she did not ignore what her father said. She opened her palm and saw five energy beads in it.

The male host understood what was going on when he saw this, and he said, "Don't worry about anything else, let's each take an energy bead and absorb them quickly to improve our strength."

Lili glanced at her father, and when she saw that there was no worry on his face, she understood. She was completely relieved and quickly absorbed the remaining energy bead. Together with the one her father had given her before, she now had two, and maybe she could be promoted to the next level.

On Zhang Chengyuan's side, she carefully felt the restraining force coming from the strange props, and thought for a moment that if it was just like this, she might be able to use the energy of the energy beads to create some strange props.

The restraining force was very weak, and she could break free with a little effort. However, in order to ensure a smooth transaction afterwards, she decided to cheat the rules.

Ten seconds later, the restraining force disappeared. She slowly sat up and picked up the comb that was left behind. She examined it:
Item: Strange Comb Source: Five-Family Copy·Lili

Category: Control
Level: Level 1 weird item

Effect: The person whose hair is touched will be imprisoned for 10 seconds

Note: Useful for level 1 and below monsters or players

Value: 3699 Gui coins
It’s okay, since the energy beads are free anyway.

She got out of bed, took the comb and went to find Jiang Siyou. After handing the thing to him, she hugged him and fell asleep.

When I woke up again, it was another day of doing nothing. When I went upstairs at night, I happened to meet the man of the house coming in. He wanted to show me some strange props that he had specially bought today.

He shouted to his family, "Wife, children, come and see what Daddy has brought you."

Zhang Chengyuan understood what he meant when he said that. She stopped going upstairs and looked down at him as he took something out of the bag. She could see everything that everyone in their family did.

The male host first took out a palm-sized doll and said, "Tuantuan, this is the surrogate doll your dad brought for you. If your life is in danger in the future, you can let it take your life."

After that, he took out a very old pocket watch from his bag and handed it to Xiao Hao, saying, "This is a time pocket watch. The time is always correct."

The music box given to Lili is a music box, the introduction of which is that it can make anyone who hears the music become mysteriously lost for five seconds and lose all ability to move.

What was given to his wife was a sewing box, and the instructions said that once he started threading the needle, all living things would have to wait obediently, otherwise they would feel pain all over their bodies.

When he took out the last item, he treated it with special care, and when introducing it, he said that he had spent most of his savings to buy this tool bag, and it could hold a lot of things.

Zhang Chengyuan saw him looking at her from time to time, so she nodded at him imperceptibly, walked down a few steps, handed over today's ghost coins and energy beads, and got another key.

If I exchange them again tomorrow, I will have five keys in total, he thought to himself, but he had already turned around and went back upstairs to his room.

After returning, she summoned the insect cubs back in batches and collected the energy beads they produced. She counted almost a thousand of them.

These are definitely more than enough to exchange for those strange props, but Zhang Chengyuan doesn't want to give too many energy beads to a family of five at once. This is really not a good choice.

If things go wrong there will be too many variables, and I don't know if this game copy will only be opened once or not. This is completely increasing the difficulty.

In the current situation of the family of five, the male owner is almost going to become a first-level weirdo, and the female owner is a little weaker. If she absorbs two more energy beads like Lili, she can also be promoted to a first-level weirdo.

As for the two smaller ones, to become first-level weird ones, they will need at least forty energy beads.

All of these add up to only about forty, which is not much more. According to the previous price, one strange prop has five energy beads, and four of them have twenty.

The last tool kit can't be solved with five, but ten is about the same, which means it can be solved with about thirty.

But in this case, there is still a key that requires five energy beads, plus the five just given, the total is enough to make their entire family become first-level weird.
