Chapter 9: A Magical Stone?

Chapter 9: A Magical Stone?

Feng Jun kicked down the stone pier, and there was a flash of red light at its bottom.

He leaned over to take a look and was pleasantly surprised to find a groove at the bottom of the stone pier with an egg-sized ruby embedded in it.

Feng Jun grew up in an ordinary family and didn't know much about rubies, but he could swear that this was definitely the most charming ruby he had ever seen in his life.

This gem was crystal clear, and it reflected a bright and soft light under the sunlight. It looked magnificent and warm.

All of a sudden, Feng Jun had an idea that this village might have suffered because of this ruby.

If he could bring such a large ruby to his world, he would be able to make several million yuan, but it was still a problem for him to explain how he got this gem.

Feng Jun's ancestors used to be rich in ancient times, and there could be valuable cultural relics in his family, but he couldn't provide persuasive evidence.

However, it couldn't be a simple gem, or his stone ring mark wouldn't become hot all of a sudden.

Since it wasn't necessary for him to make money with the gem right now, Feng Jun stretched out his left hand without hesitation and pressed the gem.

He already had storage space, and it was just a matter of time to make a lot of money. What he needed to do now was to discover the truth of the adventure.

He didn't dare to press the whole gem with his left hand, so he placed his little finger on it.

The next second, his body shook suddenly, and he felt a strange energy that followed the little finger of his left hand and directly poured into his body. It was extremely strong.

He couldn't see it, but he could feel it attacking his body. It was so real and wild that he felt the great pain.

"Uh." He couldn't help groaning in a low voice. At this moment, he felt that his left hand was about to explode. If it weren't for fear of being discovered, his screams would definitely be earth-shattering.

Afterward, he felt a sudden coolness from his wrist, and the mark of the stone ring became clear.

The stone ring could bring coolness, but the tip of his little finger was still shaking under the effect of the strange energy. Feng Jun clenched his teeth hard and trembled with pain. He felt that his left hand was no longer his own.

The color of the ruby somehow got lighter.

In about 10 minutes, the magnificent red color of the ruby gradually dimmed, but the stone ring mark on his hand became clearer than ever.

About half an hour later, the last trace of red on the ruby faded, turning from pink to gray, then it shattered and turned into a pile of white powder before it fell silently from the stone pier.

The stone ring mark on Feng Jun's left wrist, however, became clearer and was even a little purple. It looked like a tattoo now.

Sadly, the tattoo wasn't beautiful.

Feng Jun was stunned for a long time. He then touched his wrist with his right hand. He found the heat had already disappeared.

"Is it a magical stone?"

He really couldn't explain what this ruby was exactly. According to the definition of web novels, the stone that could provide power similar to electricity contained energy, and it probably was a magical stone.

He might not have travelled in time to the late Ming Dynasty, but into a Xianxia world.

At this time, he was extremely eager to get some help from a certain system. Although it was said that the system in a game always made the protagonist suffer, it could save him much time and effort.

Besides, he felt his body was dirty again.

No matter what, the color of the stone ring mark on his wrist had deepened, so he didn't need to be worried about the energy for entering and leaving the space right now.

He then dug a hole with his hands and swept in the crumbs of the magical stone. He sprinkled it with sand and buried it tightly.

After checking it several times, he was satisfied and said "get out of here" to himself.

However, within a second, he appeared again. He bent and picked up the trolley box on the ground to hang on his elbow. "Sh*t, it's a bad habit to often forget things."

Back in the real world, the first thing Feng Jun did was to take off his clothes and put on cool summer clothes.

Afterward, he picked up Xiao Li's phone and played the video. During the filming, he didn't seem to have any changes, but the trolley case on his right elbow strangely disappeared for a second.

It appeared again the next second and moved about five centimeters away.

If he didn't watch it again and again, he probably would believe that it simply slid a little.

He deleted the video before walking out of the washroom. "Thanks!" He gave the phone back to Xiao Li.

When Xiao Li wanted to laugh at him for being so quick, he dashed into the staff locker room with his trolley case.

Feng Jun felt that he needed to take a bath because even he himself could smell the stench on his body.

He took a shower for half an hour this time, and Zhao Hongqi was opening the window when he walked out. "What is the smell? Who stepped on dog's sh*t?" Zhao Hongqi complained.

Feng Jun's clothes were also very stinky. The summer clothes he just put on were a little better, but his stinky autumn clothes, long trousers, and thick leather jacket could almost kill people.

He had to go outside and send the clothes in the trolley case to the laundry shop. He didn't want to wash them by himself.

The lady owner of the laundry shop showed obvious dislike on her face, but she said nothing because of the pay.

Feng Jun went to buy a new set of summer clothes, and it cost him over five hundred yuan. He was going to have great success anyway, so he didn't care about that little money.

After buying new clothes, he didn't rush back to Hongjie Fitness Club. Instead, he took his ID card and found a hotel to book a room. He needed to do a lot of tests next, and it would be inconvenient if he stayed in the club.

If he could get the first pot of gold within a short time, he even wanted to quit his job right now.

After booking a room, he went out to do some shopping, where he mainly bought thick clothes and food. He even bought a kerosene stove and went to the construction site to buy a sharpened rebar crowbar.

The waiter on the floor was quite surprised when he saw Feng Jun carrying all kinds of weird things into the room. He took the initiative and reported it to his supervisor once he saw the rebar crowbar.

The rebar, which was thicker than a thumb, had a sharpened end. It could be a murder weapon.

The supervisor thought for a moment. He then said slowly, "Pay more attention to him, and let me know when he comes out again. I'll ask him."

Feng Jun walked out again an hour later with a tight frown and unhappy face. His hair was also wet.

The supervisor came in a hurry. "Sir, did you just bring a lot of stuff into your room?"

Feng Jun waved his hand and said without much strength, "They're useless, and you can dump them except for the trolley case."

He really had no interest in talking at this moment. In other people's eyes, he might only have stayed in the room for an hour, but he actually was in the strange space for four days and three nights.

He searched every corner of the village but failed to find anything that could make the mark hot again.

It wasn't a surprising result, but he was still inevitably frustrated because he had easily found the first magical stone.

At this moment, the mark on his wrist had faded a bit. If the magical stone had charged him 100 points of energy, he had already used up a dozen points.

During the four days and three nights, he had already digitized relevant indicators.

Although Feng Jun majored in arts and wasn't sensitive to data, he had learned business administration, which was one of his two degrees. Administration required data.

Even the ancient emperor, Qin Shi Huang, knew the importance of unified weights and measures, and since then laid the foundation for a unified country. As a modern man, why should he ignore this?

However, even though Feng Jun still possessed more than 80 energy points, he couldn't waste them like that.

What was worse, he found that he had to prepare more and better equipment if he wanted to find more magical stones.

He had to spend more time in the real world and earn more money. He only had ten thousand yuan in his pocket now, which was barely enough.

He used to think that he didn't need to go to work again and could live a cozy life, but it seemed that the reality was crueler than he thought.

Since he had to make more money, he quickly went back to the club by shared bicycle when it wasn't early.

He ran into Qin Tao at the door who came to work too. Qin Tao looked at him up and down before asking, "Why do I feel that you have grown taller?"

Feng Jun clearly knew that, because his pants couldn't cover his ankles now, but he just bought the pants about an hour ago in his world.

Luckily, his feet didn't become longer, or he would be out of shoes.

There was an instrument for measuring height and weight in the fitness club. Feng Jun took off his shoes and stood on it. He was shocked when he saw the numbers.

He finally surpassed the boundary of "third-class disability"!

What surprised him more was his weight. He was only 140 pounds now.

When he walked by the front desk, Xiao Li said, "Hey, how did you lose so much weight within such a short time?"

Hearing that, Feng Jun wanted to joke with her, but he still stopped himself from doing that. He was going to be a successful man, and couldn't forget his manners.

"Really? I just put on a new set of clothes," he said with a little surprise. "I just changed a set of clothes. No wonder this brand is so expensive. It's worth the price."

"Really?" Xiao Li sized him up but said nothing further about it, although she couldn't believe his explanation.

Feng Jun wasn't busy this afternoon, but he had a new member today, which surprised him.

The new member was a woman in her early thirties. She had a plain face, but was overweight. Her waist wasn't too thick, but her two legs were as thick as elephant legs. She should be about 1.65 meters tall, but her weight was definitely more than 165.
