"But you also know who has cash on them right now. It's the middle of the night in this remote area... Even if you want to withdraw money, you have to wait until tomorrow morning when the Chiyuan Bank on Mount Taixu opens for business."

Seeing that Shibao was still not afraid of the boiling water, Xia Yuan dragged him around the convenience store.

"Sir, can we sit down and have a good chat? Aren't you tired of running around all the time?"

But Xia Yuan acted as if he didn't hear it. Finally, he found what he wanted in the toolbox in the corner of the shelf - ropes and sacks.

A very strong rope

[This is a rope that is a specialty of Taixu Mountain. It is strong and durable and can be used to tie objects up very well. But please note that it is very serious and please do not use it to do something very strange, such as: bondage play. ]

[plain sack]

[A specialty of Taixu Mountain Xiaoshi Convenience Store, a must-have for murder and robbery. Tie a few stones to it, and then you can throw the person in the sack into the river to feed the fish. From then on, no one will know her whereabouts.]

Ignore the strange introduction of Fairy Ellie for now.

Xia Yuan used the rope he found to wrap around the hands of the Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge again and again.

"Sir, we can discuss anything. Oh, don't hold me so tight, it hurts."

Xia Yuan grabbed the other end of the rope and sat on a rocking chair he found in a convenience store. Due to inertia, Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge fell right in front of Xia Yuan.

"Hey, don't go too far. I said I didn't mean it that time."

The lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge, who owed money and refused to pay it back, was angry about Xia Yuan's behavior of tying her up.

"Then pay me back. Put aside the principal you owe me, Xiaoshi, plus the interest for several months. Xiaoshi, you owe me ********* in total."

Xia Yuan wrapped the rope tightly around his hands and picked up the calculator from the counter. The crisp sound of numbers reached the ears of Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge.

"How much...how much?! Are you kidding me? This is even more usurious than loan sharking!

"You are even more evil-hearted than me, don't you feel any pain in your conscience?

Even if you sell me, you can't get so much money back. As for your principal, I'll be honest...except for a small part of it given to Lao Gudong to pay the water and electricity bills, the rest of the money was used to invest in this convenience store."

The Herrscher of Knowledge spoke of the fact that she had spent all her money.

"My conscience won't feel any pain. And I think...Xiao Shi, you are actually quite valuable. After all, a lively and energetic Key of God can be sold to Tianming for experiments and earn a lot of money."

Chapter 260 What? They even didn’t let go of the treasure identification? !

But before Xia Yuan could finish his words, he was interrupted by the Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge.

"Bah, you are the Key to God! Your whole family is the Key to God!"

The Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge tried hard to pry open the ropes, ready to whip the other party.

But she didn't expect the rope to be so strong.

She clearly remembered that she only put the cheapest items in the convenience store, so how come there were real ones?

Xia Yuan did not say anything, but silently wrapped the rope around the other person. The great Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge finally succumbed to Xia Yuan's tyranny.

"Oh, oh, oh, I'm wrong, I'm wrong... Stop pestering me. I really can't breathe if you continue to pester me. Sir, if you really strangle me to death, who will pay you back then~"

The great Lady Herrscher of Knowledge was lying on the pure white floor of the convenience store, pretending to be dead.

"嘁~"

Xia Yuan snorted and looked at this convenience store that was decorated with the hard-earned money he had earned from working hard. His expression revealed an extremely deep resentment... like an infinite abyss.

"It doesn't matter... Even if the Key of God is severely damaged, it can still be used after repair. Fate doesn't care whether the Key of God is dead or alive."

Xia Yuan was mumbling something.

"Hey... do you still have any humanity? You even didn't let go of the Key of God. Bah, I'm not the Key of God. Forget it... Do whatever you want. You can kill me or chop me up as you like. I don't have any money anyway."

The lady of knowledge who owed money and refused to pay it back said this with confidence.

Looking at Xiao Shi rolling on the ground and acting like a child, for some reason... Xia Yuan felt a sense of disappointment in his heart.

He thought that with Xiaoshi's personality he would be able to resist and struggle a bit more, to add some interest, ahem... to be more precise, to add some fun.

Looking around, the furnishings in the store are rather ordinary.

On the small shelves nearby, there are strange sports drinks packaged with Aunt Mei’s self-portrait, Homo stationery, travel goods, daily necessities, etc.

On the other side are snacks, biscuits, and instant foods such as cup noodles endorsed by Kevin.

It seems that Xiao Shi spent part of his hard-earned money on purchasing these goods. Combined with the full bucket and empty snack bags behind the counter, it turns out that Xiao Shi, the owner, has been sitting here eating for a long time.

Gollum-

His stomach rumbled. After driving through the forest for nearly two hours, Xia Yuan felt that he needed to replenish his energy.

【Bud sister juice】

[The most popular drink sold in the city at the foot of Taixu Mountain is deeply loved by the general public. One bottle refreshes the mind, two bottles never tire, and three bottles make you immortal. ]

[Tips: It is said that Mr. Hom, who follows Bronya, loves to drink Mei's juice, but every time he drinks, a pair of white ponytails magically appear behind him.]

According to this clue, the "Mr. Hoom" next to Bronya should be played by Kiana.

【Kevin Cup Noodles】

[Mr. Kevin, known as the master of noodle soup, once won the championship of the noodle soup competition held for three consecutive years and was selected as the spokesperson for bucket noodles. ]

[Slurp~Slurp~]

[I can’t stop at all]

Although there are many things I want to complain about, let’s ignore them for now... The most urgent thing is to fill my stomach first.

Xia Yuan soaked the cup noodles in hot water, waited quietly for three minutes, then sat in front of the Herrscher of Knowledge and started eating. He really couldn't stop...

Seeing the other person eating so happily, the Ruler of Consciousness couldn't help but feel greedy.

"Ahem...Um, sir...can you give me a bite?"

Xia Yuan knocked on the lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge who was tied up like a twist in front of him and handed the cup of noodles to her. Just when Shibao wanted to open his mouth, Xia Yuan suddenly took the bucket of noodles back.

"I spent all my hard-earned money. Do you think it's possible? Just starve. As the Key of God, it shouldn't be a problem for me to starve for seven days and seven nights, right?"

Xia Yuan cruelly and ruthlessly rejected the request of Ms. Herrscher of Consciousness.

"You...don't go too far!"

The Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge wanted to break free and give the man who was slurping instant noodles in front of her a good beating, but the nasty rope was too tight. She had clearly stockpiled the cheapest goods, so how did she manage to find the genuine product?

"Ahem... Sir, what you just ate was our limited edition instant noodles. The price has already offset the money I owe you."

The Lady of the Herrscher of Consciousness suddenly had an idea and said to Xia Yuan.

"First of all, this convenience store is mine, these products are mine, and even you, Xiaoshi, are mine."

Xia Yuan pointed at himself and made the villain's remarks with confidence, and unscrewed the bottle cap and drank a sip of [Mei Mei Juice]. It was worthy of being the best-selling beverage, and the taste was surprisingly good.

"Bah, I'm not yours!"

But Xia Yuan didn't say anything. He silently put down the empty bucket of noodles in his hand and slowly came to the front of Ms. Herrscher of Consciousness.

"You...what do you want to do? According to your human age, I am still just a child. We just celebrated Children's Day a few days ago. You can't even let a child go!"

Seeing Xia Yuan gradually approaching, Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge lost confidence and closed her eyes nervously.

"Don't make a fuss... I'm not interested in you, Xiaoshi. I just want to ask you a question. I'm actually lost in the forest. Do you know which direction the nearest town to Taixu Mountain is in?"

"Huh? That's why you tied me up to ask me this?"

The Herrscher of Knowledge was surprised and felt a little disappointed. Was she really so unattractive? Well...it was all the fault of the old antique.

"Now, the town is over there."

The Herrscher of Knowledge pointed in a direction with her still movable head.

"Is there a detailed map of the area around Taixu Mountain?"

Xia Yuan asked again.

Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge: "Do you want a world map?"

Xia Yuan: "......Aren't nearby maps common items in convenience stores?"

"I have all the nearby areas memorized in my head, so there's no need for a map. If a tourist comes, why not just give him a world map? I'll cheat as many people as I can~"

Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge looks like a black-hearted businessman.

"Xiao Shi, what kind of shady shop is this?"

Xia Yuan complained.

"Ahem... Sir, why don't you just sleep on the floor of the convenience store for a night? I'll take you to a nearby city tomorrow."

The Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge had her own plan in mind. She waited until the other person fell asleep and then sneaked away.

Chapter 261 Sell the treasure for a good price~

But how could Xia Yuan not know what the other party was planning next.

"I think we should do it now. After all, there is a living humanoid God Key Map. It would be a waste if we don't use it."

Xia Yuan planned to tie the humiliated Lady Herrscher of Consciousness with a rope and take her to a nearby town. If they encountered Honkai beasts, dead soldiers, or the like on the way, he could ask them to help resist damage.

Hmm....if you have any questions, please let me know.

"Hey, hey, I told you I'm not the Key of God!"

But Xia Yuan ignored him. Instead, he walked straight to the sack and put it over the Herrscher of Consciousness.

Of course, Xia Yuan was very humane and left two small holes on both sides of the sack for the other party so that the other party could see the surrounding directions clearly. In this way, if they were discovered... they would not be accused of child trafficking.

After all, others cannot see Shibao's appearance.

Xia Yuan unfolded the map of the area near Taixu Mountain that he had been carrying with him. He pointed to the location on the map and asked:

"Xiao Shi, be smart, where is this convenience store on this map, and where should we go next."

The Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge, with a sack on her head, kept blinking as she looked at the map that Xia Yuan pointed to.

"Now, go north at this intersection."

Xia Yuan rubbed his chin and nodded, signaling the other party to continue.

"There is a recently built overpass at the foot of Taixu Mountain. Near the first intersection behind the overpass, there is a statue of Chiyuan Master, also known as Old Antique. Turn right there... and then go straight ahead to reach your destination."

"Hmm? This way?"

Xia Yuan suddenly interrupted Xiao Shi and frowned slightly... Could it be that Xiao Shi was fooling him again?

"What's the matter, my dear guest? It's just that I owe you some money. Why do you have to be so aggressive and embarrass a child like me who is not even five years old?"

"You owe me some money? That's all the hard-earned money I saved! And Xiaoshi, the road you just mentioned is not shown on the map at all, and there is no destination."

Xia Yuan questioned.

"Oh, sir, how could the great Lady Herrscher of Knowledge lie to us? It's just not drawn on the map. It's the nearest village to us, at the foot of Mount Taixu."

"Hmm...are there any other options?"

Xia Yuan asked again.

"To get to [Afu Town] upstream of Taixu Mountain, we have to walk for at least two hours, but to get to [Chiyuan Village] downstream, we only need thirty minutes~"

"Akagane Village...here?"

Following the guidance of the Lady of the Herrscher of Knowledge, Xia Yuan looked at the location of [Red Kite Village] on the map.

Although [Afu Town] is not very far away, the road conditions on the mountain road must be very complicated, with many forks in the road. Most importantly, the mountain roads nearby are only paved with the simplest methods.

If we continue to take the mountain road and bring Xiao Shi with us...the other party will definitely take the opportunity to escape.

After weighing the pros and cons, Xia Yuan decided to take Xiao Shi to [Chiyuan Village] first, where he would find a resident's house to stay and rest for a day. After daybreak, he would take Xiao Shi to [Afu Town] and sell him for a good price.

"Then without further ado, we will set off now to the nearest [Red Kite Village]."

At this time, Xia Yuan's mind was full of thoughts on how to sell Xiao Shi.

Holding the rope that bound the Lady of the Herrscher of Consciousness, Xia Yuan led her to the outside of the convenience store and drank up the [Mei Sister Juice] in one gulp.

Xia Yuan, who had regained his energy, looked up at the night sky. The moon behind the clouds was emitting a brilliance that was comparable to that of the convenience store sign.

After fixing Ms. Herrscher of Knowledge firmly on the motorcycle, Xia Yuan stepped hard on the accelerator, perhaps because he was excited about finding her.
