Holy shit!!!
Hearing those melodious dinging sounds, Lin Chen felt his mood soar to the skies!
System?
He gave a soft call, but no system appeared.
Before Lin Chen's eyes, however, a transparent panel similar to those in online games instantly materialized:
[Name: Lin Chen!] [Age: 18!] [Realm: 0] [Qi-Blood Value: 66.004/300!]
Oh my god!
A golden finger might be late, but it never misses!
The ancients truly did not deceive me!
Swallowing hard with a stir of intense excitement, Lin Chen immediately cast his gaze toward the surrounding grass.
Chuan City had seen overcast and rainy weather these past two days, and after the rain, stink bugs would swarm out in full force to forage.
True to their name, these bugs would release a gas resembling a stinky fart the moment anyone touched them.
Most people seeing these pests would choose to give them a wide berth.
Yet right now, as Lin Chen looked at the stink bugs in the nearby grass, he looked at them as if they were undressed beauties.
Without a second thought, he stomped his way over there, slap, slap, slap!
[Ding! Stepped on and killed a stink bug, Qi-Blood Value +0.001!] [Ding! Stepped on and killed two stink bugs, Qi-Blood Value +0.002!] [Ding! Stepped on and killed three stink bugs, Qi-Blood Value +0.003!]
Those melodious dinging sounds rang beside Lin Chen's ears like musical notes!
Feeling a distinct heat rising throughout his body, his excitement grew all the more intense!
Roughly an hour later, nearly all the stink bugs in this patch of grass had been stomped to death!
The ones that hadn't died were currently huddled inside their holes, shivering.
Crouching down, Lin Chen wiped away his sweat.
Then he opened the panel:
[Name: Lin Chen!] [Age: 18!] [Realm: 0] [Qi-Blood Value: 80.004/300!]
In less than an hour, his Qi-Blood Value had increased by about fourteen points!
Under normal cultivation, that would take at least two months, and even then, it required dietary supplementation with Qi-Blood Pills to achieve such results.
Even relying purely on dietary supplements, gaining fourteen points of Qi-Blood Value required a minimum of five Qi-Blood Pills.
A single Qi-Blood Pill was worth three thousand yuan!
If Lin Chen wanted to consume one of those things, he had to go work as a brick mover at the factory for a month.
Yet he still insisted on letting Lin Jia have a Qi-Blood Pill every month, solely to keep her nutrition from falling behind!
He could suffer however he liked himself, but he could never let his younger sister suffer.
Yet now, possessing a golden finger, Lin Chen suddenly felt like he could make it too!
Stomping a few stink bugs to death could increase his Qi-Blood Value?
What about slaughtering pigs and sheep?
If he grew a little bolder, what about killing two Demon Beasts?
Could this be a golden finger where slaughter made one stronger?
"Big brother, what are you doing here all by yourself?"
Just as Lin Chen was deep in thought.
Suddenly, a little girl around five or six years old with a student haircut came running over!
Her face brimming with a sweet smile, she gave people a very innocent feel!
Compared to his younger sister Lin Jia when she was little, she seemed somewhat similar.
"What do you think!" Crouching down, Lin Chen smiled!
The little girl touched her chin.
Her eyes were filled with childlike innocence.
Glancing sideways at Lin Chen, she said:
"I don't know, but it stinks so much here. Are you here to take a dump?"
Lin Chen: "..."
To avoid causing any misunderstanding.
Lin Chen got up and bolted.
After putting distance between himself and that patch of grass behind him, he moved to a different spot to continue his "slaughter"!
[Ding! Stepped on and killed a stink bug, Qi-Blood Value +0.001!] [Ding! Stepped on and killed a toad! Qi-Blood Value +0.001!] [Ding! Stepped on and killed a snake! Qi-Blood Value +0.001!]
Melodious dinging sounds echoed by his ear.
Lin Chen looked as though he were dancing a dance of slaughter, weaving back and forth across this patch of grass!
Woof, woof, woof...
Just as he was getting into the swing of the slaughter, a brownish-yellow Tai Ritian suddenly came running over!
Everyone, if you encounter ads asking "Are you a real person?", there is no need to pay attention to them—just close them and absolutely do not scan codes or send text messages!
That baring of teeth and snapping of jaws instantly interrupted Lin Chen's rhythm!
"Oof, good son, stay away from this poor wretch. All the clothes on his body combined aren't worth as much as your dog food!"
At that moment, a plump woman walked over.
Glancing sideways at Lin Chen, her refined face was full of disgust!
Cradling the Tai Ritian, she turned and left!
A dog eats better than me?
Fuck your mother!
You're looking down on people way too much!
Lin Chen spat out a mouthful of phlegm!
Busy with his slaughter, he shook his head and strode off in the opposite direction!
Woof, woof, woof...
Who would have thought that before he had even run a few steps, the familiar barking of a dog would sound from behind him once more!
Lin Chen glanced back at the now-vanished plump woman.
Then he looked at the Tai Ritian baring its teeth at him!
Without another word, he raised his leg and delivered a kick!
[Ding! Killed a Teddy, Qi-Blood Value+0.001!]
Dusting off his hands!
Lin Chen went right back to his busywork.
Sweeping through the park, he dug three feet deep like invading Japanese soldiers entering a village!
Aside from people, practically everything capable of being crushed to death by him had died!
The bugs that had managed to survive would not dare poke their heads out of their holes for a long time!
Only when the sky grew dark did Lin Chen finally stop!
"My good son, where did you go?!"
"You're gone, what is Mom going to do from now on..."
Listening to the crying in the distance.
Lin Chen remained unmoved.
Glancing at the time, he then opened his panel:
[Name: Lin Chen!] [Age: 18!] [Realm: 0] [Qi-Blood Value: 101.003/300!]
From 80 points to 101 points.
A full 21 points gained; this speed was simply too exaggerated!
Feeling the distinct strengthening of his Qi-Blood, a silly, knowing smile broke out across Lin Chen's face!
He figured that if things kept going at this pace, wouldn't he be able to become a Martial Artist as well?
It seemed his younger sister's three years of tuition fees were finally settled!
Rumble, rumble, rumble...
Just as Lin Chen was feeling thrilled, as though he had been pumped full of chicken blood.
His stomach abruptly let out a growl.
Clearly, the bit of bread he had eaten in the afternoon was nowhere near enough.
Seeing that his brick-moving shift time had arrived.
Lin Chen stretched lazily and stood up to leave.
Ever since he dropped out of school.
Although household expenses had decreased somewhat, Lin Chen still had to work to support the family.
His younger sister's daily meal expenses, her monthly Qi-Blood Pills, and each semester's miscellaneous school fees.
All weighed down on Lin Chen's shoulders like heavy stones.
Especially the examination fees needed for his younger sister's upcoming high school entrance exam, which ran as high as ten thousand yuan.
Even after dropping out, Lin Chen had barely managed to scrape together five thousand odd.
For the remaining five thousand plus, he had been pulling all-nighters moving bricks on an assembly line somewhere.
It wasn't that working the day shift wasn't decent, but working night shifts came with higher overtime pay and offered better value for the effort.
Lost in thought, Lin Chen arrived at Chuan City No. 7 Food Processing Factory.
This was one of Chuan City's food-distribution production lines.
Usually, the ingredient supplies for all major high schools and universities in Chuan City originated right here.
Having only worked here for five days, Lin Chen had long since gotten on good terms with the cafeteria aunties.
Relying on his sweet mouth and handsome looks, he quickly managed to procure five steamed buns and a bowl of meat soup to eat.
Only after eating his fill did Lin Chen's feeling of hunger finally vanish!
"Time to get to work! Over at RT-Mart today, they're short-handed. Who's willing to go?!"
At that moment, the leading supervisor walked over.
Hearing this, the group of workers all turned their heads away and refused to look!
"That place RT-Mart is all fishy and stinking; I'm not going! If I go back tonight, the missus probably won't even let me into bed!"
"I'm not going! It's too fishy! I'm a Buddhist and I don't take lives, thank you very much!"
The supervisor, sporting a slicked-back hairstyle and holding a 007 communicator, frowned.
Just as he was about to lose his temper, he saw Lin Chen stand up!
"Since nobody else is going, I'll go to RT-Mart to slaughter fish! Boss Song!"
