Chapter 12: Sweep Away Hunger and Be Yourself

At this moment, Chen Ye's hair stood up, as if countless bugs were crawling across his back!

The suona in his hand almost fell to the ground...

"Damn it!"

Chen Ye cursed in his heart.

How did this old woman run behind him silently? She was even scarier than a ghost!

The old lady selling chestnuts kept smiling and stood quietly, like a listener who listened quietly.

She stopped selling sugar-roasted chestnuts.

After a while, she slowly sighed and said, "Alas, old lady, I haven't listened to music for a long time. The past time is really nostalgic..."

"Are you sure you are talking about music...not Yin music?"

Chen Ye resisted the urge to complain. After all, the level of this old lady is not comparable to his own. If he said something inappropriate, it would be like asking for trouble.

He quickly searched for relevant information in his mind.

However, it is not clear what sequence of ghosts the old lady is.

If it is the [Chef] sequence, it should not have such a strong illusion ability, which can bring such a great impact on people's senses.

It is a bit similar to the characteristics of [Bewitcher].

However, to achieve such characteristics, it is not to absorb a single characteristic item, but a profession composed of multiple characteristics.

The Weird Era has countless characteristic items, and the professions born are flourishing. Each sequence can be combined. Even if it is the same profession, the characteristics it possesses may have their own merits.

Although Chen Ye has a richer knowledge reserve than other players, when it comes to the overall picture of the entire "Weird Era", it is just the tip of the iceberg.

"Young man, people like you who are so eager to learn are rare."

"Haha, I didn't listen to this song in vain. This bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts is for you to eat."

"If you have time, you can also learn the craft from me, the old woman, and maybe you can make it for yourself in the future."

The old lady selling chestnuts smiled and put a bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts in an oil paper bag and handed it to Chen Ye.

Out of the instinct of seeking benefits and avoiding harm, Chen Ye subconsciously wanted to refuse...

But.

That feeling that could corrode the mind did not appear again.

The sugar-roasted chestnuts in front of him seemed to be real sugar-roasted chestnuts, exuding a fragrance. But the fragrance was not strong, nor was it too strong, it was plain and unpretentious.

Chen Ye found that this bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts, under the observation of the Eye of Luck, was surrounded by yellow and green.

This shows that this is a healthy food, and eating it will not cause any impact on the body.

Not only can it fill the stomach, but it also tastes good.

In a daze, Chen Ye suddenly raised his head and found that the old lady selling chestnuts was shrouded in a faint blue halo.

The blue halo seemed to be the sky in the distance, far away and unreachable, and a faint melancholy drifted to a very far place with the white clouds. At the same time, the surrounding purple rhyme flowed, and the black evil spirit and red blood light no longer existed.

At this time, Chen Ye's vigilant heart slowed down a little. Compared with everything he saw in front of him, he believed more in the color of the halo reflected in the pupil of luck.

"Thank you."

Chen Ye thanked sincerely and took the bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts from the old lady selling chestnuts.

The chestnuts were fried golden and crispy, and the shells had been peeled off. Just pick it up and you can eat it.

Opening the oil paper bag, Chen Ye chose a golden and plump chestnut, put it in his mouth, and chewed it carefully.

The fragrance immediately filled the tip of the tongue, and swallowed it into the stomach with a warm sense of satisfaction.

Surprisingly...

The feeling of hunger disappeared quickly!

After walking such a long way, Chen Ye had already felt thirsty and tired. But the current situation was turbulent and faced danger. He ignored all the negative conditions of his body and kept his brain absolutely focused and calm. In this way, he would have room to react and find the right way to deal with any danger.

After this sugar-roasted chestnut went down his stomach, a warm current seemed to flow through the hundreds of orifices with the blood. The fatigue was instantly restored, and the brain suddenly became clear.

Sweep away hunger and be yourself!

It seems that as long as you eat a sugar-roasted chestnut, you can quickly restore your body's energy.

"Delicious."

Chen Ye praised from the bottom of his heart.

"I should be the one to thank you." The old lady selling chestnuts said with a smile, "It's been a long time since anyone played suona for me, an old woman, and it's been a long time since anyone praised the deliciousness of chestnuts."

Chen Ye carefully sealed the oil paper bag and said, "Grandma, when can I learn the skill of roasting chestnuts from you?"

He directly asked "when" instead of "can or not" in order to increase the success rate during negotiations. In this way, if the other party is willing to accept, then answering the specific time will make it easier to get a direct acceptance answer.

In this broken game, even finding something to eat randomly may be in fatal danger!

Chen Ye immediately realized that the old lady selling chestnuts definitely has a sequence related to [Chef], and it is not a primary sequence!

This sugar-roasted chestnut can restore his body and has some special abilities.

If he had the ability of the [Gluttony] sequence, maybe this roasted chestnut could enhance his ability... But Chen Ye didn't feel sorry. For most early players, not starving to death was lucky enough.

If he could get the ability related to [Cook], at least he wouldn't be a starving ghost.

Do it yourself and have enough food and clothing.

The old lady selling chestnuts smiled, pushed the cart, and her figure gradually disappeared to the end of the alley.

When she reached the corner, an illusory voice slowly floated over:

"Someday, if you have the ability to cook, I will consider teaching you."

The voice became more and more erratic, and as the old lady selling chestnuts completely entered the alley, the voice in the lingering air also disappeared completely.

"The people in the weird era are really weird..."

Chen Ye stood there, looking at the sugar-roasted chestnuts in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh.

Obviously, this bag of chestnuts almost took his life a while ago, but now it has become a delicacy in his mouth.

Perhaps.

This is why this game was so popular all over the world before.

It has all the unknowns.

It has all the possibilities!

Chen Ye began to carefully recall what the old lady said.

"When I get the ability to cook... This sentence should be translated as getting the characteristics related to [chef]."

"However, how to get it specifically is a problem..."

At this moment, Chen Ye's mind moved, and he suddenly opened the bloody phone and found [Strange Black Market] on it.

Players can use the bloody phone to take pictures of the items to be traded and upload them to [Strange Black Market].

The phone will automatically detect the item information, upload it to the trading interface, and publish the demand, waiting for other players to trade.

Similarly, the other party also needs to take pictures of the items they have and put them on the trading platform.

Wait until both parties check each other's trading items and confirm that the transaction is successful before passing.

At this stage, almost all players are facing a crisis of survival, and the normal demand for food is huge.

The bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts in his hand has dozens of them, enough to eat for several days.

"Maybe...using this bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts, you can trade some extraordinary items of extraordinary value!"

Chen Ye's eyes lit up slightly.

He immediately turned on his bloody phone, took a photo of the sugar-roasted chestnuts, and posted it on the [Weird Black Market]!
