"Handsome man, do you want a bigger one? The latest men's peripherals, plug in the neural interface and you can use it!"
"Uh, no, my original one is still very strong."
"Sooner or later you are so handsome and you will be hugged from left to right. Even gods can't withstand the physical exertion. How about..."
In order to get rid of this honest hawker, Ji Qinglin bought a set of big steel cannons and threw them on the shelf.
The grocery store also became quiet. Ji Qinglin leisurely took a sip of the bubbled baby's breath and looked up out of the glass window.
At nine o'clock in the evening, the whole Bangkok becomes cooler.
Outside the alley of the shop, vendors who have not closed their stalls are still soliciting business.
The text on the projected billboard on the stall is constantly circulating: "Safe and non-toxic cracked version: golden bell cover, monument opening hand, flying cheap feet..."
There are really a few iron-headed boys who are not afraid of viruses squatting there to select the exercises that can be installed.
On the electronic billboard at the street entrance are constantly changing pictures of beautiful women, with large characters written below: "One Customized Taoist Companion a Day" Dual Cultivation Simulator, an out-of-print resource!
There are obviously more gentleman customers below.
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Xindong Street is still the same as when I first came here.
Boom boom——
The roar of motorcycles from far away interrupted Ji Qinglin's thoughts.
A man in plain robes parked his car at the door, his car lights shining on the signboard of "Ji's Grocery Store".
The man got out of the car cleanly and pushed open the door. When he saw Ji Qinglin, he saluted impatiently:
"Elder Ji, the apprenticeship ceremony has started long ago. Guild Master, I will take you there."
In the center of the yin-yang fish pattern on the front chest of the plain robe is the word "Xindong": the Qi Refiner of the Xindong Street Chamber of Commerce.
Qi practitioners are quite respected in this era, but most of them practice with the support of chambers of commerce or groups, so they are relatively polite to members of chambers of commerce.
"Wait a minute, I'll change clothes."
As an elder, Ji Qinglin didn't have the slightest air of arrogance. The Qi Refiner had no choice but to wait and glance around in boredom.
The structure of the grocery store is simple. The first floor only has a table on the left and rows of shelves on the right. The upper floor should be the living area.
There are various cultivation accessories on the shelves: old models of prosthetic arms, artificial meridians that can still be connected...other than that...why is there a big steel cannon?
Elder Ji doesn't seem too serious this time.
Based on the revenue reported by Ji's Grocery Store, Ji Qinglin really has no say in the Xindong Street Chamber of Commerce.
Not to mention adopting disciples to fund his cultivation, I am afraid that in the eyes of outsiders, he, the shop owner, does not even have the money to install high-end cultivation accessories.
If it weren't for saving the son of the president of the Chamber of Commerce and Lao Hutou's face, I'm afraid it would be difficult for this small shop to even get a seat as an elder.
The apprenticeship ceremony is an event held by the Chamber of Commerce to provide adoption funding quotas to each member unit.
Ji's Grocery Store obviously has little capital, but Ji Qinglin participates every time.
On the one hand, he is using his status as an elder of the Chamber of Commerce to win the favor of a wave of potential disciples, and on the other hand, he is trying to find people or things that belong to the same old era.
I don’t know why this time, but I was suddenly informed that the ceremony would be held at night, and the location was a bit mysterious. Ji Qinglin didn't arrive in time, so the president sent someone to pick him up and take him to the scene.
Watching Ji Qinglin change his guild uniform, the Qi Master also took a good look at the youngest elder in the chamber of commerce who was showing off.
In most impressions, this elder seems to always wear a dark blue hoodie, with the brim of the hat always pulled low.
Taking off the hat, what was revealed was a fair and handsome face, with a high nose bridge, curved eyebrows, and a smile on his face.
He is indeed handsome, no wonder there are rumors in the association that he seduced the president's daughter and became an elder.
Even if this face were placed in a Yin and Yang Shuangxiu club, it would probably do well.
He has a slender and tall figure. Except for the obvious traces of modification on the palm of his right hand and the nerve interface exposed on his chest, his whole body is no different from that of ordinary people.
Some people actually opened the neural interface in the chest. Shouldn't it be opened in the back of the neck?
However, I have even seen some Qi masters open the interface at the bottom. My personal taste may be different.
Ji Qinglin put on his raincoat and glanced at the black palm of his right hand when the qigong master wasn't paying attention.
The white "lifeline" on the palm of the hand is complete, indicating that the battery of the "mobile phone" is full. This apprenticeship ceremony is a little different, so you still have to be careful.
The modified right hand was what Ji Qinglin had when he woke up. It contained an old-era smartphone, and the data and programs in the phone had been deleted.
In my previous life, I never left my phone with my phone. In this life, after time travel, my phone was directly embedded in my body. I wonder if it was God’s joke.
This new era program cannot be installed on mobile phones. Ji Qinglin originally thought that this old antique was useless, but after setting the password once, he accidentally entered the wrong password twice in a row. His palm vibrated slightly, followed by smart appliances and Internet-connected devices within three meters of him. They all closed automatically.
After experiments, Ji Qinglin found that this trick was equally effective against Qi practitioners equipped with ordinary cultivation accessories or prosthetics, and the opponent could not locate the source of the attack at all.
The only drawback is that it consumes a lot of power, and the shutdown effect only lasts about eight seconds.
He couldn't understand the principle, but for Ji Qinglin at this time, it was already a rare means of self-protection.
The refiner buckled his helmet low to cover the logo on his body. For fear of being recognized, he quickly turned the accelerator, and the motorcycle gradually moved away in the alley.
The cold wind blew on Ji Qinglin's face, and the past appeared before his eyes like a movie.
At that time, I was already in the advanced stage of liver cancer, and my parents tried all methods but could not slow down my premature death.
In the end, I thought about it and took the initiative to apply for partial organ donation. At least this way, my parents could still get a compensation income.
But I didn't expect that when I woke up again, I would be in this strange era with a healthy body.
According to the former owner of the grocery store, Lao Hutou, a garbage man came to his place that morning with a truckload of used goods to sell. He was still a new face and looked a little panicked. He sold the truckload of goods without any counter-bid. Old beard.
Lao Hutou guessed that the guy probably smuggled in a truckload of garbage that he had stolen from somewhere and sold it.
This is nothing new in Bangkok today, but after Lao Hutou sorted out most of the garbage, he discovered that there was a cylindrical cabin in it. Fearing that it was some kind of medical waste, he pushed it to the ditch. Use the tools in the store to open it.
As a result, Ji Qinglin flowed into the ditch together with a large amount of pale white liquid.
At first, Lao Hutou thought he was a corpse and was praying that he could keep some healthy organs so that he could sell them at a good price. However, he didn't expect that Ji Qinglin sat up on his own.
Ji Qinglin also reacted quickly. He read Qidian's book in vain, and when he noticed something was wrong, he immediately pretended to have a headache and amnesia to avoid being caught.
Now that I think about it, I'm really grateful to Old Hutou for not killing himself and selling him to organ dealers.
Compared to being in another world, Ji Qinglin felt more like he was in another time and space. Judging from the information found on the Internet, the era he lived in had long been called the "old era". But if it was really the future, his consciousness would be different. how......
Just as he was reminiscing, the Qi Master had already led Ji Qinglin into a remote factory.
Why did you recruit a disciple in such a remote and shabby place this time? Is the Chamber of Commerce’s investment in real estate in Bangkok a hit?
Ji Qinglin carefully observed the surrounding environment, and was just thinking about grabbing the motorcycle and running away if something happened, when the side door of the warehouse opened quietly.
