Chapter 228: Under the River of Sighs
After Wang Shun finished speaking, he seemed to remember something and took out something from the space. It was a winding miniature river. It lay quietly in Wang Shun's palm, emitting a golden light that represented wealth. The water was clear and you could see the bottom, but there were no living creatures in the river. From here, you could only see countless golden gravels sinking to the bottom of the water.
"puff!"
Before Wang Shun could speak, Kailin sprayed out the wine in her mouth, not even bothering to wipe her mouth. She pointed at the miniature river in Wang Shun's hand and shouted, "Boss actually took this thing out!"
Lu Zhou and Mu Chun immediately looked at each other, their eyes full of fear. Something that could shock Kailin must be of great origin.
At this time, other people were also attracted by the thing in Wang Shun's hand. Wang Shun didn't say anything. After seeing that there were not many people left below, he waved his finger and activated the spell to disperse the crowd in the square. Most of these people were spies from other forces, and they were mainly for surveillance.
Looking at the empty square around the supermarket, he tilted his palm slightly, and the miniature river fell directly under his control. As soon as the small river left his palm, it grew against the wind and began to expand rapidly until it was almost as wide as the square. Then it fell down with a loud bang. A large amount of river water fell from the sky like a waterfall, forming a spectacular scene.
When the transparent river water touched the ground of the square, the splashing water droplets instantly turned into countless gold coins. These gold coins kept piling up, making crisp and pleasant sounds. As the river water continued to fall, the entire circular square outside the supermarket was filled with gold coins. The gold coins piled up higher and higher, and the supermarket seemed to be surrounded by hills made of gold. Under the reflection of the supermarket lights, it was shining with golden light and dazzling.
At this moment, both the people in the supermarket and the guards standing on duty overhead were frightened by the scene before them. Lu Zhou was also absent-minded for a long time, and then suddenly seemed to think of something, and hurriedly shouted: "Quick, all A-levels, block all entrances to the supermarket, prohibit..."
Before he finished speaking, Wang Shun moved his fingers slightly, and the golden mountains surrounding the supermarket collapsed in an instant as if they had lost their support, and turned into turbulent rivers again. The rivers did not disperse as expected, but floated above the ground as if controlled. The overflowing water quickly gathered together, and the surrounding square began to change. The originally flat floor tiles, including the space underneath, gradually disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When space was left just enough to accommodate the river, the River of Wealth fell instantly, neither more nor less, with the water surface exactly level with the ground. When someone ran out of the supermarket, they found that the square they had walked through before had disappeared, and now there was only a huge moat surrounding the entire supermarket.
Suddenly, a dazzling golden barrier flashed at the edge of the supermarket, trapping everyone inside. The people inside looked at this sudden change in astonishment, not knowing what had happened. However, there was a radiation of joyful power in the supermarket, so no one felt nervous.
At this moment, a deafening roar of trucks suddenly came from the street in the distance. The sound was getting closer and closer. Everyone saw nearly twenty huge heavy trucks driving here and finally stopped neatly at the edge of the river.
Suddenly, dozens of heavy trucks appeared in front of everyone at the same time. This scene was a bit shocking, but what was even more unexpected was that one or two mysterious women wearing hoods got off each heavy truck. They were dressed in white robes, tall and elegant, and exuded a mysterious atmosphere.
Due to the obstruction of the hoods, their real faces could not be seen clearly, but everyone could feel their pious feeling of pilgrimage. These women stood quietly by the pool, with their hands on their abdomens making a mysterious triangular gesture, as if they were performing some kind of ritual.
Kailin, who was still watching the show from high in the sky, had a smile on her face. She waved her hand gently, and the wine jug in her hand instantly disappeared and turned into a small pendant on her chest. She raised her foot and stepped lightly into the void. Although there was nothing under her feet, she walked down steadily from the air as if she was walking down a staircase.
With each step she took, the crisp and rhythmic stomping sound of her high heels continued to ring out, echoing in the air around her. This sound seemed to have some kind of magic, as if it was stepping on everyone's heart. At the same time, the unruly look in her eyes instantly disappeared, replaced by the indifference and majesty of a high-ranking person.
This sudden change caught everyone off guard. Kailin no longer restrained her aura. The pressure of a strong man instantly enveloped the entire block. The air around seemed to solidify and become heavy. Whether it was the spies hiding in the dark or the security personnel, they all felt the huge pressure at this moment. They could not move at all and could only lower their heads obediently, not daring to look directly at the enemy.
In this depressing atmosphere, Lu Zhou also felt unprecedented pressure. He did not expect Kailin to be so strong now. Fighting with him yesterday was just like playing.
Karin stood in the void, and everyone's eyes were attracted by her at this moment. The many crazy women below saw Karin and bowed to her. There was only Karin, the crazy woman priestess in this world, and the other crazy women only received the blessing of the god of wine indirectly through her selection.
Kailin glanced at everyone, and everyone turned away, not daring to look at her. Kailin raised the corner of her mouth in satisfaction, revealing a smug smile. "Everyone! This supermarket belongs to my Lord, and it is his kindness that gives you a chance to survive. Since my Lord has given him the greatest kindness, I also hope that you will put away those little thoughts, the supermarket is not something that any of you can control.
The river under my feet is the River of Wealth, but I prefer to call it the River of Sighs. Although there are no cashiers in the supermarket and people are free to enter and exit, anyone who wants to get something for nothing will be cursed by the power of my Lord and sink to the bottom of the river and turn into gold as punishment.
So I'm going to say this up front. Everyone must face the desires and greed deep in their hearts. Likewise, you will each have to pay the price for your own actions. I've explained the stakes to you. If something happens to someone in the future, you'll just have to accept your fate and don't follow in his footsteps!"
After Kailin finished speaking, she stretched out her fair hand and gently waved it, instantly removing the covers on all the heavy trucks. For a moment, the mountains of gold made people a little dazzled.
Karin looked at the harvest with satisfaction, then nodded to the crazy women below. After receiving the signal, the crazy women immediately put their hands together, closed their eyes, and began to chant a strange and mysterious prayer. Their voices were low and melodious, like a call from ancient times. Although no one could understand it, they could all hear the sacred meaning from the ancient times.
As the chanting ceremony progressed, ripples suddenly appeared on the originally calm river surface, as if it was touched by some mysterious and powerful force. The river water began to roll, as if countless hands were stirring under the water, making the entire lake surface restless.
Kailin landed lightly on the lake. Her feet did not touch the water, but she was able to stand firmly on it. She stretched out one hand and flicked it slightly. A huge wave of water surged from her hand and quickly spread out in all directions. The wave was several meters high and rushed away like a giant dragon.
When these water waves left the water surface, they turned directly into golden liquid. These golden liquids flew in the air, flashing dazzling golden light, like sparkling gold coins.
After these golden liquids were lifted up, they were like a golden rain, falling on the heavy trucks in the distance. When they came into contact with the heavy trucks, they spread out instantly, wrapping the entire heavy trucks. Some of them fell on the ground and turned directly into lumps of gold. In just a few seconds, the ground was covered with a layer of gold. Not to mention the heavy trucks, these golden trucks shone with dazzling light in the sun, looking extremely spectacular and gorgeous. Even if people didn't look at them deliberately, they could see the golden glow in their peripheral vision.
At this moment, the chanting of the crazy women was about to come to an end. Their voices echoed in the air, emitting a mysterious power. The gold that had solidified on the shore began to soften gradually, as if it was metal melted by high temperature, and it began to roll. At this time, the gold liquid seemed like a group of conscious objects, slowly moving towards the direction of the river.
These soft golden liquids gathered together to form a golden torrent, like a galloping dragon. They followed the terrain and finally flowed back into the waters of the River of Sighs.
Despite the massive influx of gold, the water level at the supermarket entrance did not rise. It was just that a thick layer of gold coins appeared at the bottom of the river, and the square returned to its previous empty state.
Seeing that the mission was accomplished, Kailin led many crazy girls to the surface of the water, and in full view of everyone, they turned into a pool of clear water and scattered in the lake. At the same time, Wang Shun also removed the barrier of the supermarket.
The bad guy Kailin had already done what he did, so naturally he, as the person in charge, had to come out and play the good cop. At this time, many people gathered at the entrance of the supermarket, but none of them dared to come out. Wang Shun landed directly on the water and said, "Don't worry, everyone. You can walk on this river normally. There is an instrument at the exit to prompt the settlement status. As long as you pay the bill normally, you can enter and exit freely. Everyone who enters the supermarket for the first time will be given a crystal core card. In the future, the supermarket will set up crystal core conversion points on various streets. You can store and exchange crystal cores by yourself. Since the supermarket is open today, we should celebrate. All items are 20% off today. I wish you all a happy shopping!"
