It was already late at night.
Sitting at the counter, Ling Ping'an changed his own.
The main purpose was to cut out some unnecessary content and add some interesting things.
He wrote slowly.
The clock ticked.
Inadvertently, he raised his head. "It's already ten o 'clock …"
He moved his hand away from the keyboard, cracked his neck, and then turned his head to look outside.
Now, it was already autumn.
The night in Jiangcheng City became cool.
From afar, Ling Ping'an heard a happy song.
"There's a flock of ducks swimming under the big tree in front of the door. Come, come, count them. Two, four, six, seven, eight …"
Her voice was tender and melodious, calming one's mind.
Meow!
The kitten, who had been sleeping on the counter, raised its head. Its amber cat eyes looked out the door.
It seemed to be able to sense something.
A moment later, a young man walked to the entrance of the bookstore with a pretty little girl.
Ling Ping'an looked over and realized that it seemed to be the owner of the barbecue shop.
He quickly stood up, walked over, and opened the door.
"Sir …" The young man was holding onto a cute little girl who looked at most five or six years old. He slightly adjusted the lenses on his glasses and said very politely, "I heard that you have some exercise books for sale?"
Ling Ping'an listened and immediately laughed.
"Yes!" He said, "Please come in and talk!"
"Thank you!" The barbeque shop owner bowed gratefully, then carried the little girl he was holding and walked in.
As he entered the door, he introduced her to Ling Ping'an, "This is Ah Ning, my adopted little sister..."
"Oh..." Ling Ping'an nodded. Looking at the little girl, he felt that she was very cute, so he said, "So cute!"
"Thank you, big brother!" Ah Ning thanked him sweetly.
"By the way..." Ling Ping'an reached out and touched Little Ning's head. Then, he asked the owner of the barbecue shop, "Customer, what kind of exercise book do you want?"
"Is there a national examination?"
"Yes!" Ling Ping'an nodded and then looked at the other party in surprise, "Customer, are you planning to apply for the official examination?"
The national examination was the main way for the Federal Empire to recruit civil servants and grass-roots officials.
It was changed from the Imperial Examinations of the past.
However, Emperor Taizu's system was that everyone had to go to the grassroots!
As the saying goes, a valiant general must rise from the ranks, and the Prime Minister will prosper from the prefectures and counties.
He mandated that all cabinet members and state officials must have a complete resume.
Thus, two parallel systems appeared in the Federal Empire.
There is a proverb among the people: The general election selects the policies, and the national examination selects the prime minister.
Therefore, the national examination of the Federal Empire was very difficult!
Now, only graduates from top-tier universities would have the guts to apply.
Anyway, Ling Ping'an didn't dare to go. He couldn't afford to lose that person!
The other party seemed to be taken aback by Zhang Xuan's words, and he immediately denied it. "No … I'm still inexperienced. How would I dare to harbor such thoughts?"
"I'm just thinking of buying some back to train myself so that I won't be eliminated!"
How could he dare to answer this question?
Did they not want to live anymore?
Participate in his examination and become his official?
The foreign gods would immediately crush such a blasphemous worm to death!
When Ling Ping'an heard this, he was filled with respect, "Customer, you are a true gentleman!"
The other party smiled and hurriedly said, "Oh, I just want to improve …"
"So, I took the liberty to pay you a visit …"
"I hope you don't mind …"
As he spoke, he bowed deeply.
Just like the young people in ancient times, they were asking for advice and copying books from famous people in places with rich collections of books.
This made Ling Ping'an have a better impression of him.
Thus, he picked up two cups and brewed a cup of tea for the two customers. As he brewed the tea, he said, "Please take a seat …"
"Thank you!" The owner of the barbecue shop hugged his sister and sat on the sofa.
His eyes were looking at the bookstore.
The powerful spiritual sense of the ruler of the old days could clearly sense the great immortal powers that existed in this terrifying bookstore.
Time and space, in a sense, were stagnant here.
Of course, it could also pass quickly.
All of this depended on him — the great immortal origin of all things, the ultimate existence of the truth of the universe, the supreme being who decided everything with a single thought!
The silver key was a servant who was responsible for supervising and combing through time according to his great will.
And in this ultimate land that existed completely according to the will of the supreme being.
His loyal servants were on standby at all times.
The ruler of the old days had already felt that several terrifying wills that were far stronger than him had already paid attention to him.
They existed under the floor, hiding in the wallpaper, and crawling in the cracks of the ceiling.
They were all waiting for orders.
That order could be a thought, a look, or just a seemingly meaningless action.
But …
All of this would be interpreted!
These existences that had served the supreme being for an unknown period of time were his most loyal servants.
Therefore, the owner of the barbecue shop was very nervous now.
His soul was trembling.
Because he knew very well that although he was worshipped and worshipped by countless races in countless worlds.
He was regarded as the heavenly father and savior, the final judge and destroyer.
But …
Here …
He was just an insignificant bug that could be trampled to death at any time!
A single-celled low-level creature.
An insignificant trash!
However, Ah Ning didn't know about this.
She looked around the bookstore curiously.
In her innocent and simple eyes, everything she saw was so new and interesting.
"Wow!" Ah Ning clapped her hands and said, "Brother, the brother here has a kitten!"
"It's so cute!"
Zhou Ke could only smile and say, "Yes, it's very cute!"
Meow!
Hearing the praise, the kitten raised its head. Its amber cat eyes looked at the little girl who looked like she was carved out of jade.
It could feel that this little girl was a little special.
She was not human, but there was no psionic power fluctuation in her body.
Other than that, it was the person sitting beside her.
Bastet recognized him.
But …
Bastet lowered her head gently. She didn\'t want to care about these things, and there was no need for her to care.
The sound of her master\'s footsteps came from afar.
Bastet raised her head and looked at her master.
She could feel the danger of the thing in her master\'s hand!
It was filled with terrifying power.
Endless terrifying howls filled the inside and outside.
It was a ticket, a ticket to an incomparably terrifying and dangerous world.
And that world, even to the Great Old Ones, was a dangerous enough world.
Although Bastet didn\'t know what kind of world it was.
But she understood that a weak true god like her was probably just cannon fodder there!
Zhou Ke also turned his head.
He looked at the supreme being who was holding a card that was surrounded by endless wails and anger as he walked towards him.
Flames rose in the eyes of the supreme being in the fog.
He shuddered subconsciously.
… …
Ling Ping\ 'an held the exercise book in his hand and handed it to the barbecue shop owner.
He smiled and said, "Customer, what do you think of this exercise book?"
He said, "This is a exercise book that has been sought after by countless examinees in the national examination. It is known as the complete guide to the national examination..."
As Zhou Ke listened, his eardrums started to hurt.
He looked at the card that was shrouded in endless black fog.
He took it with trembling hands.
It was a temperature that was so hot that it made him feel as if his heart was being torn apart!
Zhou Ke immediately knew that this was a ticket to an ancient battlefield.
It was his calamity and also his opportunity.
If he could come out alive, then he might have a chance to compete for the position of the Outer God.
And this was what he dreamed of.
To obtain a qualification!
Thus, Zhou Ke immediately thanked him, "Thank you so much!"
He knew very well that this supreme being was immersed in a beautiful dream.
That was why he could rely on this method to play the edge.
Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he would never have this chance!
Because he was just a bug!
But even so, there was still a price to pay!
Thus, Zhou Ke smiled and asked, "How much?"
Ling Ping\ 'an listened and laughed, "Forget about the money..."
It was just an exercise book. It was not worth much!
"How can this be?" Zhou Ke became nervous. He knew what the price was?
Here, everything had a price.
The amount and amount of money were not the key.
The key was the price that had already been set in the dark.
But compared to the payment of real money.
The most terrifying thing here was free and given away!
This was because, to this Supreme Martial Artist, apart from a few mortals, any other free gifts had already been secretly marked with a sufficient price long ago!
And those prices were usually expensive and dangerous.
In the universe, everyone knew a truth: free was the most expensive!
Ling Ping\ 'an looked at the barbecue shop owner who wanted to be polite to him and said with a smile, "You don\'t have to be so polite..."
"Next time I order takeout from your restaurant, just give me something to eat …"
He had personally certified the barbecue skills of this barbecue shop owner.
In the future, he believed that there would be many opportunities to come into contact.
Therefore, a worthless exercise book was really insignificant.
"Give me some..." Zhou Ke\'s face stiffened.
As expected!
Free was the most expensive!
But...
What could he do? Reject?
That was courting death!
Not only could he not reject, he also had to thank him.
Thank this kindness, thank this reward.
Thunder and rain were all the king\'s kindness.
He clearly sensed that countless existences were staring at him.
This great reward, this supreme glory, already belonged to him!
Thus, he immediately forced a smile and said, "Next time, come to my shop to order. I will definitely give you the best..."
Those existences closed their eyes in satisfaction.
It was because of his tactfulness and because of his intelligence.
This was a beautiful job that many people wanted but couldn\'t get!
"Then I won\'t disturb you anymore..." Zhou Ke picked up Ah Ning and bowed to leave.
Ling Ping\ 'an nodded, "Take care..."
Thus, he personally sent the siblings to the door.
