When it was finally time to rest, Zhang Ze followed Yan Xiu out of curiosity to find the "small shop."
Soon, the two found him, a short old man, in the crowd.
At this time, several prisoners were surrounding him asking to buy things.
"Small shop, get me a box of stomach medicine. I have a severe stomachache recently!"
"I want a pair of 500-degree glasses. The original ones were broken by the jailer. Now I can't see clearly."
"Small Shop" glanced at those people and said lazily: "I can get whatever you want, but you have to bring what I want first."
The two people nodded repeatedly: "Okay, let's go right now!"
Watching the two people leave, Zhang Ze was curious: "What exactly does this 'small shop' need?"
Yan Xiu leaned over and said with a smile: "'Small Shop', I want a piece of copper wire, about..." He looked back at Zhang Ze, who said: "10 centimeters is about right."
"Copper wire?"
"Small Shop" was slightly startled. This was the first time he heard that someone needed such a thing, but it didn't bother him.
"Okay!" He nodded and said, "Bring what I need, and you can get the copper wire."
"What do you need?" Zhang Ze asked.
"Magic crystal!"
Zhang Ze suddenly frowned, Magic Crystal was the ore they were mining now, and all Warcraft needed it.
However, in order to prevent prisoners from hiding magic crystals, the dog-headed supervisors will closely search everyone's body.
They carry a special kind of magical beast with them that can detect whether they are carrying magic crystals with an accuracy of over 90%.
Before Zhang Ze and the others came to work, the dog-headed supervisor warned everyone: Anyone who secretly hides magic crystals will be punished with a hundred lashes!
"Can't it be replaced with something else? It's difficult to take the magic crystal out." Zhang Ze asked in a deep voice.
"Small Shop" shook his head: "No! Here, magic crystal is hard currency, nothing can compare with it!"
What else did Zhang Ze want to say, but Yan Xiu already agreed: "No problem! We will find a way to get the magic crystal!"
After that, he took Zhang Ze and left.
Returning to the place where the two were working, Zhang Ze asked: "How can you take the magic crystal out? The dog-headed supervisor's detection of magic beasts is not for nothing."
Yan Xiu whispered: "Those monsters are indeed very sensitive, but as long as they hide the magic crystal in their bodies, it will be difficult for them to detect it."
Zhang Ze raised his eyebrows and said, "You mean, you want to swallow the magic crystal into your stomach?!"
"You can also stuff it into the back." Yan Xiu pointed to his butt: "When the time comes, you can spit it out or pull it out."
Zhang Ze was speechless for a while.
The size of the magic crystal is about the same as a baby's fist. It can be done with hard work, but it will be more painful to get it out.
"Everyone does this." Yan Xiu smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, I will do this!"
Zhang Ze was silent for a moment and said, "Don't worry, I'll think of a solution later."
However, when it came time to call it a day, Zhang Ze didn't think of a good way to solve this problem.
"We're done! Everyone come and check!"
The dog-headed overseer brandished his whip and shouted.
The prisoners gathered one after another to be inspected, and the two people who were looking for something to buy from the "small shop" were also inside.
The dog-headed supervisor brought a cage, which contained a red monster that looked like a bat. The monster's nostrils were extremely large, taking up almost half of its face. It was obvious that this guy relied on his nose to detect magic crystals.
"You are lucky. The big-nosed monster died suddenly, and we replaced it with a new one. Its sense of smell is more sensitive. No matter where you are hiding, you can be found!"
The dog-headed supervisor looked proud: "No matter where you hide, you can't escape its nose!"
"If you obediently hand over the hidden magic crystals, I can exempt you from punishment." The dog-headed supervisor added, the purpose of this is to reduce their own workload.
After that, the dog-headed supervisor began to check everyone's body. He put the cage close to the prisoner. The big-nosed monster would inhale hard to feel the breath of the magic crystal. If it found anything, it would make a piercing scream, like an alarm. .
It was the turn of the two prisoners. Although they were nervous, they still wanted to try their luck.
The result was a tragedy for them. As soon as the big-nosed monster approached them, it immediately let out a piercing scream.
The dog-headed supervisor immediately caught them and searched them from head to toe but found nothing, so they knew where the magic crystal was hidden.
"Give these two humans water! The more water the better, let them pour out the magic crystals in their stomachs!"
As a result, the two people were tortured and almost choked to death with water. In the end, they poured out the magic crystal in their stomachs and were severely whipped a hundred times in public.
In fact, before the 100 lashes were reached, they died.
All the prisoners were silent. They were angry and dared not speak. They could only turn their heads to one side and not look at the two corpses.
As for the "small shop", he was expressionless. He believed that the death of these two people had nothing to do with him. He could only blame these two guys for their bad luck!
Yan Xiu's face turned pale. If he had used this method to transport the magic crystal out, he might have turned into a corpse like those two people.
Although he was grateful to Zhang Ze, he was also worried: "The method of smuggling into the body doesn't work, what should I do?"
Zhang Ze squinted and watched the prisoners pass the inspection one by one. He suddenly had an idea and took out a magic crystal from the bamboo basket and strode towards the dog-headed supervisor.
Yan Xiu was immediately startled: "Brother! What are you doing? Want to force your way in? Do you want your life?"
Zhang Ze ignored it, walked quickly to the dog-headed supervisor, and took the initiative to let the other party search him.
The big-nosed monster immediately discovered the magic crystal on Zhang Ze's body and immediately let out a strange scream!
All the prisoners in the room looked here, with different expressions.
Some were gloating, some were surprised, and some sighed and shook their heads.
Yan Xiu's heart was in his throat and he didn't dare to breathe.
"Small Shop" snorted disdainfully: "Another idiot looking for death!"
The giant god and the irritable Dragon King looked nervous. They were worried that Zhang Ze would also be whipped and might die.
The Dongchang elite was a little surprised, and then shook their heads slightly.
At this time, the dog-headed supervisor grabbed Zhang Ze's collar and shouted ferociously: "You have a magic crystal on your body..."
Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Ze calmly took out the magic crystal from his pocket and said, "Yes, I realized my mistake, so I took the initiative to hand over the magic crystal. Didn't you just say that? Take the initiative. Turn it in and you won’t be punished.”
"Uh...Okay!" The dog-headed supervisor angrily snatched the magic crystal from Zhang Ze's hand and said angrily: "If you steal it again next time, I will beat you to death!"
As a result, Zhang Ze walked out of the mining site in full public view.
After Yan Xiu passed the inspection, he ran all the way to catch up with Zhang Ze and said, "Brother, you scared me to death just now! I thought you were going to force your way in!"
"I'm not that stupid!" Zhang Ze smiled faintly and said, "Go and tell the 'small shop' that I have got the magic crystal and ask him to prepare the copper wire."
"Ah? Didn't you hand over the magic crystal? You didn't lie to me, did you?" Yan Xiu was surprised. He saw the scene clearly just now. How could Zhang Ze still have the magic crystal on his body?
Seeing that Yan Xiu didn't believe it, Zhang Ze quietly asked him to take a look at his trouser pocket. There was a bright magic crystal lying in it!
"Actually, I took two magic crystals at the beginning, one of which was put in my pocket, and the other was hidden in my trouser pocket."
Zhang Ze explained: "When the monster discovered that I had a magic crystal on my body, I took the initiative to hand over the magic crystal in my pocket, so that the dog-headed supervisor would not check me a second time, because in his subjective consciousness , I no longer have magic crystals on my body, and there is no need to waste any more time searching."
"I just used the inertial thinking of the dog-headed supervisor to quietly bring out the magic crystal. Well, in the Thirty-six Stratagems, this is called substituting a weak point for a pillar."
"However, this move is actually very dangerous. I also made a bet, but I didn't expect that I won the bet!" Zhang Ze chuckled and said, "It seems that I am pretty lucky."
At this moment, Yan Xiu was completely convinced. Zhang Ze was definitely the first person who could take the magic crystal out of the mine in a fair and just manner!
The giant god, the irritable Dragon King and others also caught up from behind. After listening to Zhang Ze's story, everyone admired him from the bottom of their hearts.
This mind and courage are unparalleled!
"Since the copper wire will be available soon, let's also look for opportunities to get magnets."
He whispered a few words to the giant god and the irritable Dragon King without emotion, and the two of them were stunned.
The giant god frowned slightly and asked doubtfully: "Will this work?"
"As long as the two of you act realistically, there will be no problem!" Shandao Bubu nodded with certainty: "Remember, it must look like it!"
The irritable Dragon King looked at the giant god and said with a half-smile, "I'm sorry then."
The giant god also laughed and said: "Whoever can't forgive me can't decide."
Looking at their expressions and conversations, everyone was confused.
At the same time, in the prison kitchen, Liu Yueying, Little Princess Qian and others were busy.
The opening time was coming soon, and they had to prepare all the meals and tableware.
In fact, it doesn't matter whether the prisoners eat or not, but the warden Hu Fei and other jailers will also come to eat, so the person in charge of the kitchen, Chef Xiongtou, attaches great importance to it, for fear that if something is not done well, Hu Fei will be angered.
After all, there are three things a new official should do when he takes office.
"You guys come here quickly and bring down the hot soup!"
"And you guys, don't just stand there, go get the bread from the oven and remember to cut it into slices!"
"Oh, you losers, the warden likes to eat chicken, don't bring other meat to his table!"
…
While Liu Yueying was busy, she stared at the box where the tableware was stored. The spoon she wanted was inside.
However, the bear-headed chef is right next to the box, and it is almost impossible to steal the spoon under his nose.
It has to be distracted.
Liu Yueying thought for a while and said to the little princess Qian and Xiaoniao Yiren who were standing next to her: "Little princess, you and Xiaoniao will attract the attention of the bear-headed chef later. I'll give you the spoon!"
"Okay!" Little Princess Qian nodded, then took the little bird Yiren and whispered a few words in her ear. Seeing that the two of them had reached an agreement, Liu Yueying turned around and walked towards the bear-headed chef.
"Chief chef, I'm here to get the prisoners' tableware." Liu Yueying said calmly.
"The tableware must be taken according to the number of people! Don't take too much, and you must return the original amount after eating!" The bear-headed chef looked stern.
Liu Yueying nodded silently, and then began to take out the tableware under the gaze of the bear-headed chef.
"1, 2, 3..."
Chef Xiongtou checked the number carefully. The spoon was an ironware. Once the prisoner got it, the consequences would be serious.
Seeing that the spoons were about to be checked, the little princess Qian and Xiaoniaoyiren ran over in a panic: "Chief chef! There is a cockroach on the warden's table!"
The Xiongtou chef was suddenly shocked. Hu Fei specifically emphasized the hygiene issues in the kitchen. If he saw cockroaches lying on his food...
The bear-headed chef didn't dare to think about it, and immediately shouted: "Then what are you two doing in a daze? Go and get rid of the cockroaches! The warden will be here soon!"
Xiaoniao Yiren looked frightened: "But, I'm afraid..."
"Trash! What is a bug afraid of? If you don't go, I will teach you a lesson!" The bear-headed chef was going crazy, waving the wooden stick in his hand and roaring.
"Okay, okay." Little Princess Qian and Xiaoniao Yiren ran away immediately, looking extremely frightened.
"Chef, I have taken the spoon and now give it to the prisoner."
Liu Yueying was about to leave, but was stopped by the bear-headed chef: "Wait a minute! Let me search your body!"
"……OK."
Liu Yueying turned around and asked Chef Xiongtou to search from beginning to end, but found nothing.
"Count the spoons again!" The bear-headed chef's eyes were cold, "Huh, don't think I don't know. You and the two women just now are in the same group, right? You want to steal the spoons, you're dreaming!"
Liu Yueying looked calm and nodded: "Okay."
So, under the supervision of the bear-headed chef, she counted the spoons again, and found that they were not too many, and the number was just right.
"Huh?" Chef Xiongtou scratched his head, full of doubts: "Am I worrying too much?"
Seeing Liu Yueying's calm expression without any hint of guilt, it had no choice but to hum: "Get out of here!"
Liu Yueying brought the cutlery box to the dining room. At this time, the prisoners were already queuing up to wait for their meals.
"Yueying, here you go." Little Princess Qian pretended to pass behind Liu Yueying and quietly handed her a spoon.
It turned out that Liu Yueying and the little princess had temporarily changed their minds. Liu Yueying stole the spoon, and then quietly transferred it to the little princess Qian.
That's why Chef Xiongtou didn't find the spoon on Liu Yueying's body.
The prisoners came over one by one to receive the spoons. When it was Zhang Ze's turn, Liu Yueying gave Zhang Ze two spoons. The two looked at each other and then separated as if they didn't know each other.
Holding the food, Zhang Ze saw Yan Xiu waving to him, and the "small shop" was sitting next to him, staring at him with a puzzled expression.
Zhang Ze walked over and quietly handed the magic crystal to the "small shop". The other party looked surprised, obviously not expecting Zhang Ze to get the magic crystal.
"Okay, I'll deliver the magic crystal in one hand."
The "small shop" also handed the copper wire to Zhang Ze. He nodded to Zhang Ze with admiration and said: "Young man, you are very powerful!"
Zhang Ze touched the copper wire and spoon in his pocket, looked at the patient who was sitting on the table next to him and said in a low voice: "Now we just need a magnet."
Dao Dao calmly nodded slightly, and then winked at the giant god and the furious Dragon King.
The two giant gods understood each other, and the furious Dragon King suddenly stood up and poured all the food in his hands onto the giant god's head!
