PNB Chapter 6 The Terrible Shopping Feature
Chapter 6 The Terrible Shopping Feature
Upon hearing the system notification, Ruan Mianmian happily opened the shopping function, her mind filled with fantasies about all sorts of delicious food.
Snail rice noodles, mala tang (spicy hot pot), self-heating hot pot, instant noodles...
When I clicked on it, I was dumbfounded...
"System, is there something wrong with this shopping function?!"
Ruan Mianmian saw that the shopping function had many categories, but 99% of them were black and invisible.
The only item that was highlighted was the steamed buns section, and they weren't expensive either, costing only one yuan each.
Good heavens, does that mean she can only buy steamed buns with her two million yuan?
The system also popped up at this moment, and for the first time, I could hear the apology in its mechanical electronic voice.
"I'm sorry, host, due to insufficient energy for time travel, many functions cannot be activated temporarily."
Looking at the rows of black buttons, Ruan Mianmian asked, "So, is the system permanently unavailable or just temporary? And what is this energy you mentioned?"
"My energy comes from minerals, precious gems, and rare medicinal herbs. This world is rich in resources and has not been mined. The system believes that the host will find a way to replenish energy in the future."
Hearing that she could get more, Ruan Mianmian felt relieved. Starving, she quickly bought two steamed buns and wolfed them down.
Whether it was psychological or she was genuinely hungry, she found the steamed buns the system bought to be exceptionally delicious, with a slightly sweet taste.
The system, upon hearing her thoughts, naturally had to step in and show off.
"Everything produced by this system is of the highest quality. Even the steamed buns are made with advanced nutritional supplements, which can replenish energy and boost immunity."
Hearing this, Ruan Mianmian was even happier. Steamed buns are actually quite good, aren't they?
Ruan Mianmian said excitedly, "Then won't I be able to take multivitamins from now on?"
The system replied smugly, "Of course, our products are the best of the best."
At this moment, Ruan Mianmian thought, since the system's steamed buns are so nutritious, are the other things under the black buttons even better?
So she decided that she must find a way to provide energy for the system in the future.
The system agreed and told her it would provide more types of goods, provided she could find a sufficient energy source.
Full of confidence, Ruan Mianmian embarked on her path to survival...
The most urgent thing right now is to find a place to spend the night. The forest at night is very dangerous, and Ruan Mianmian needs to find one before dark.
She opened the map and saw that she was surrounded by greenery.
"System, how do I view the map? It's all green except for me, who's the only bright spot!"
The system quickly responded, "You can click the plus sign in the upper right corner to zoom in on the map, which will allow you to see the surrounding terrain and landforms more clearly."
Following the system's instructions, Ruan Mianmian indeed saw some other markers.
One of the blue-black triangles caught her attention. The system explained that it might be a cave or some other place that could provide shelter from the wind and rain.
Ruan Mianmian headed towards the blue-black triangle, hoping to reach it before dark. Along the way, she carefully avoided some areas that looked rather dangerous.
The dense forest can be quite frightening.
Finally, she arrived at the location of the blue-black triangle and found that it was indeed a very small cave.
The cave looks fairly clean; we should be able to spend the night safely.
Ruan Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief and went into the cave to rest.
She first threw in a few stones to see if there were any small animals inside. She's not afraid of anything else, but she's terrified of snakes, insects, rats, and the like—a bite from one of those would be quite a nasty experience.
Finding the cave to be perfectly safe, she crawled inside and painstakingly broke off a few large leaves to use as a bed and blanket. And you know what? It was actually quite comfortable to lie on.
She concealed the entrance to the cave and then hid in a corner, waiting for tomorrow to arrive.
It got dark, and she was hungry. She bought another steamed bun and slowly chewed it, while thinking about her plans for tomorrow.
How will she survive in this unfamiliar world...?
