Chapter 2 The Book Thief

The next day, Ma Feifei got up a little early. Why did he get up early? It was because he pressed his arm, which hurt so much.

After washing up in the yard, I opened the bookstore door, took the stool and sat in front of the door, listless.

"Huh? Magical Bookstore?"

Ma Feifei, who was dozing off, suddenly heard someone mentioning his "magic bookstore". He immediately became energetic and opened his eyes to look.

This is a person who is not rich in life. He is wearing a shabby long gown. Although it is clean, the blue long gown has been washed and faded. The most important thing is that this person is still barefoot and can't even afford shoes?

Looking at the appearance.

Yes, my face was covered with mud, dirty and I couldn't see clearly. Those eyes were quite spiritual and watery.

Subconsciously looking at Adam's apple and chest, Ma Feifei came to the conclusion that he was a girl.

What is related to what, these are important.

"How is it? Do you want to go in and take a look? Our store will open today, and all the books in it can be viewed for free today." This is the first customer, and it depends on this girl's reading volume.

"Oh?" As if attracted by the word "free", the girl's eyes turned and walked in with her unspoken feet.

"The mission is about to be completed!" Looking at the back, Ma Feifei was a little excited.

After suppressing his excitement, Ma Feifei didn't even want his little stool and followed in.

...

"This is what you call 'all the books in this store?" Zhao Xiaodao pointed around the shop, and finally stopped at the book "Ansserson's Fairy Tale" and said.

Ma Feifei's face turned red, he smiled and said, "The new store is open, and the books are still on the way to ship. It will be fine in a few days."

Zhao Xiaodao nodded casually and took down the "Anssen Fairy Tale" on the bookshelf. The exquisite cover lit up her eyes, as if she could talk, and told Ma Feifei that she liked this cover very much.

"Ansserson's Fairy Tale?" Zhao Xiaodao read it gently, frowned slightly, as if he had never heard of this book.

"The new book, which has never appeared on the market, is very beautiful, why don't you sit down and read it slowly?"

The shop is not big, about twenty square meters. In addition to bookshelf, there are four long tables placed horizontally in the hall, two meters long and eighty centimeters wide.

In the center, there is a sign standing with it saying: Magic Bookstore, only read but not sell, read books at an hourly rate of 1 spirit crystal.

When Zhao Xiaodao saw it, his eyelids jumped, but he didn't say anything. He followed Ma Feifei's lead and sat down on a table, and opened the book "Anssen's Fairy Tale" with his hands with dirt.

Ma Feifei resisted the excitement and returned to the door, and his eyes turned to Zhao Xiaodao from time to time. The journey of a thousand miles began with a single step, and he finally took this step.

...

This morning, Zhao Xiaodao was very excited to watch, and Ma Feifei was also very excited to watch.

It’s just that Zhao Xiaodao reads books, and Ma Feifei reads the amount of reading in the system.

However, after watching it for a whole morning, the reading volume still did not change from 0/1 to 1/1. Ma Feifei guessed that it might have to wait for the girl to leave before she could count.

As for reading this book? What a joke, although the book in Zhao Xiaodao seems not thick, in fact, the number of words in the book "Ansserson's Fairy Tale" is as high as several million words. Although it is not clear how this book contains millions of words, Ma Feifei has also opened it and read it. There are many stories in the prologue. After Zhao Xiaodao finished reading it, he probably starved to death.

When he thought of hunger, Ma Feifei was really hungry. He glanced at Zhao Xiaodao who was still focused on reading in the house. Ma Feifei got up and ran to Dad Wang’s bun shop diagonally opposite and bought two buns.

Although it is free to read books, it is my first customer after all, so I can only divide the two buns into one.

Ma Feifei, who was full of kindness, had not stepped into his bookstore with the hot buns, but he saw a plate of roast chicken and a pot of wine on the table where Zhao Xiaodao was sitting. Zhao Xiaodao was holding a book in one hand and a chicken leg in the other, eating slowly.

As if he felt Ma Feifei's gaze, Zhao Xiaodao glanced at him, nodded gently, as if he was saying hello to him?

Ma Feifei felt that this gaze was full of malice. He turned around silently, sat on the stool, looked at the bun in his hand, and took a hard bite.

"I heard that a plate of roast chicken costs ten cents, and it will be even more expensive if you want to boil a pot of wine."

Thinking of this, Ma Feifei suddenly wanted to cry.

...

In the afternoon, Ma Feifei leaned against the door and had a dream. In the dream, he ordered a lot of food. The whole man and Han chew came out. Looking at the delicious dishes that could not be named but exuded a fragrant smell, Ma Feifei's saliva flowed out.

Then, Ma Feifei woke up from hunger.

Nicely, Ma Feifei saw a blue shadow floating past him.

After wiping his eyes, Ma Feifei subconsciously glanced at the shop, and then he found that the person inside was missing!

The book is gone!

...

Today is a day full of magic and guilty for Zhao Xiaodao. It is magical because she found a very good book, and she liked the stories in it very much; she felt guilty because she liked this book so much, so she took it away!

"It's all the blame for that dark-hearted boss, and she also has 1 spirit crystal per hour." Zhao Xiaodao touched the book "Anssen's Fairy Tale". After reading it all day, she only read a little bit. If she calculated 1 spirit crystal per hour according to the rules of that store, she might not even be able to pay for the money to read this book.

"I'll send it back after reading it. I'm compensating for him a piece of spiritual crystal." Zhao Xiaodao thought so.

"The maximum is two, so you can't get too much. I took a month to participate in an escort mission last time and only got ten spiritual crystals. It should be enough for me to compensate him for two spiritual crystals when I read a book." Zhao Xiaodao thought of this, his guilt gradually decreased.

He looked down at the book, and couldn't help but raise his lips slightly, and hummed playfully.

"The tomboy in front, please stop me." After a roar, Zhao Xiaodao was so scared that he was shocked. He didn't look back and ran wildly with his bare feet.

It is already dark in Watanabe Town, the sunset has passed, and night is coming. The high moon hangs in the sky, and the moonlight scatters on this border town, making it a bit more desolate.

Ma Feifei stood under a big tree panting, covering his abdomen with his hands, and looked up at Zhao Xiaodao on the treetops, resenting his teeth itchy.

A book is really nothing to him, but the problem is that the system has not prompted him to complete the task until now, and the reading volume is still at 0/1. If the book is about to be stolen by Zhao Xiaodao today, then Ma Feifei thinks that his golden finger may be about to fly, so don’t think about the peak of life, even living is a problem.

So even if you sacrifice your life today, you have to get the book back!

So, he chased Zhao Xiaodao for more than twenty miles and chased him out of Watanabe Town.

Zhao Xiaodao on the treetop was also slightly breathing at this moment. He suffered some injuries during the last escort and had not healed. However, he seemed to have recovered well today. He used his body skills and did not aggravate his injuries. Instead, his cultivation seemed to have recovered by seven or eight points. However, he ran for more than twenty miles in a row and used his cultivation. His breath was unstable, so he was very tired.

Looking at Ma Feifei under the tree, Zhao Xiaodao, who was as smart as hers, didn't know what to do.

He was obviously an ordinary person with no power, so he was destined to be unable to take action against him, let alone that he seemed to be in a disadvantage. Although reading a book in this store is so expensive and unintentional, he did not force himself to read it! What's more, he even let himself read it for a day for free.

It seems that there is something wrong with stole the other person's letter by himself.

Zhao Xiaodao really has no choice but to use Ma Feifei.

As for returning the book to others, Zhao Xiaodao was reluctant to let it go.

So, the two of them stared at each other with big eyes, and they didn't say anything, looking at each other quietly.

"What do you want?" Finally, Zhao Xiaodao couldn't help but speak.

"Give me the book back." When Zhao Xiaodao jumped gently and climbed up the tree, Ma Feifei understood that fighting was unwise, but the book must be brought back, so the only way now is to fight with her.

"I'll give it to you after reading it, okay?" Zhao Xiaodao's tone became weaker as soon as he talked about the book.

"No." Ma Feifei distrusts her ten thousand times, not to mention that books are made by the system. Now the system has no prompts. What if the book is not brought back today, what if the system directly erases itself tomorrow? Will it still be alive? To take a step back, if you don't erase yourself, the system will disappear directly. What should I do? In this strange world, what is the difference between erasing yourself?

Zhao Xiaodao stared at Ma Feifei for a while, and she saw the words "no discussion"

"But I like this book very much." Zhao Xiaodao still softened.

"If you like it, you can go to my bookstore to read it every day." The moonlight is too light and the visibility is too low. Ma Feifei can't see Zhao Xiaodao's expression clearly. But it can be seen from her tone that she seems to have made some concessions?

"I..." Zhao Xiaodao opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end he swallowed it back.

'brush'

Zhao Xiaodao jumped down from the treetops gently.

Handed Ma Feifei the book "Anssen's Fairy Tale".

Ma Feifei was stunned for a moment and quickly took it over. Without waiting for Zhao Xiaodao to react, he turned around and ran away.

"You wait a moment."

Ma Feifei ran two steps, but still couldn't help but be curious about what she said. He stopped and turned to look at Zhao Xiaodao.

I saw a small glowing stone lying quietly in Zhao Xiaodao's palm, which looked crystal clear and transparent under the moonlight.

"Okay, I'll give it to you."

Ma Feifei reached out to take the spirit crystal, which was a little cool, but very comfortable.

It can be seen that Zhao Xiaodao was reluctant to leave this spiritual crystal, and his eyes stared at it from time to time.

"I'm sorry to treat this spiritual crystal as apologizing."

Zhao Xiaodao left, leaving Ma Feifei with a chic back.

Ma Feifei looked at the spirit crystal in his hand, looked at Zhao Xiaodao again, and then looked at the surrounding environment...
