435: Everything has arrived

From the cleanliness of this stream, one could tell that Pingyang Village was well-maintained on a daily basis.

Ye Su didn't know if the villagers would allow an outsider like him to go barefoot and play in the water like this.

Fortunately, it was hot, and it was past ten in the morning, so those who needed to work were working, and those who needed to be in school were in school.

The remaining elderly people with nothing to do were probably already back home after finishing their grocery shopping, so no one would see this scene.

To prevent any accidents or being scolded by villagers coming out, Ye Su didn't dare to linger. After getting ashore, he carried his shoes and walked toward the next glowing point. After entering the water again, he added the ninth stone to his storage space.

It took less than ten minutes in total, and Ye Su finally got the tenth stone.

[storage space 5: Stones (10 pieces)]

Looking at the ten stones fully collected in his storage space, Ye Su did not immediately activate the Hidden Attribute.

He found a random place to sit, wiped his feet clean, and put his shoes back on before turning his head to look at the somewhat primitive-styled Pingyang Village.

"Next, it's time to find that 950,000-worth republic of china commemorative twenty wen copper coin."

With that, Ye Su lifted his feet and walked into Pingyang Village.

Unlike the cement and asphalt roads in other places.

Walking into one of the alleys in Pingyang Village, Ye Su saw that even the ground in Pingyang Village was paved with large stones about one meter long and twenty centimeters wide.

"Where is the dry well mentioned in the intelligence?"

After entering the village, looking at the surrounding houses that all looked more or less the same, Ye Su was completely lost.

"Forget it, I'll just treat it as a rare opportunity to encounter such a village in Yangcheng and take a stroll to relax."

Holding a mindset of finding joy in hardship, Ye Su began to wander aimlessly around the village, while paying attention to the surroundings to see where the system's prompt light might shine.

Fortunately, Pingyang Village only had about a hundred households, and the whole village wasn't very large, so it wasn't too difficult for Ye Su to search.

"Found it!"

Heaven rewards the diligent.

After passing through an alley, the view suddenly opened up, and a small open space appeared.

Ye Su saw that not far away, under a platform about two meters square, paved separately with stone slabs and raised more than ten centimeters above the ground, was emitting the azure light that had made him search so hard.

Although the center had been filled in, it was still possible to see a large circle about one meter in diameter surrounded by stones in the middle, which was clearly the filled-in dry well mentioned in the intelligence.

"Fortunately, there is one [Pluck things from thin air] provided by the hidden easter egg. Otherwise, even if I discussed buying this well with the village committee, I wouldn't know how to dig it open."

Walking onto the platform made of stone slabs, Ye Su did not immediately spend 6,666 yuan to activate the [Pluck things from thin air] skill.

Instead, just like before, he tried to use his [storage space] to retrieve the coin buried underground.

[Friendly reminder: The target item is out of range. Please get closer and try again!]

"Well, it seems these six thousand six hundred cannot be saved."

Ye Su looked regretful and had no choice but to resign himself to spending over six thousand yuan, preparing to use the [Pluck things from thin air] skill to retrieve the coin.

[Detected that someone is watching the Host, this activation of the [Pluck things from thin air] skill failed. Please try again later!]

"Uh..." Ye Su said helplessly: "It's past ten o'clock, and the sun is so hot, why are there still people watching the excitement!"

A village like this looked like it was full of relatives and acquaintances.

Whoever was watching him would probably be able to recognize that he was a stranger.

Worried about being mistaken for someone with ill intentions, which would cause them to keep staring at him, Ye Su didn't dare to look back to see who was watching.

However, standing alone on a dry well in the scorching sun was a bit strange, so Ye Su had to take out his phone and pretend to be a tourist taking photos, snapping several pictures of the dry well and the surrounding houses.

While taking photos, Ye Su kept staring at the skill activation status prompt on the screen.

Finally, after walking around the dry well and taking photos from multiple angles, the red [×] on the system screen suddenly turned into a green [√].

Ye Su was quick-eyed and nimble-handed, instantly activating the skill.

[Deducting fees, please wait...]

[Ding!]

[[Pluck things from thin air] skill activated successfully!]

As the system prompt sounded, Ye Su noticed a small object suddenly appear in his trouser pocket.

Reaching into his pocket, Ye Su indeed felt a circular coin about two fingers wide.

"Finally got it!"

Not stupid enough to take the coin out in public, Ye Su turned around and followed the alley he had just entered, returning the way he came to the stream at the entrance of the village.

In a great mood, Ye Su took a few photos of the clean stream before returning to the Lamborghini and taking the coin he had just obtained out of his pocket.

On the obverse side of the coin, within the beaded circle, were two crossed flags.

On the left and right sides outside the beaded circle, there was a five-petaled flower on each side, and on the top and bottom sides, there were nine characters in regular script: [Republic of China] and [Commemorative Coin].

Ye Su flipped it over to the reverse side, where there were also regular script characters marking the three characters [Twenty Wen], surrounded by grain patterns on both sides.

In addition, on the top and bottom of the outer rim of the coin, there were English words: [THE REPUBLIC OF CHINA] and [TWENTY CASH].

Having been buried in the dry well for who knows how long, Ye Su could tell that the condition of this coin was indeed average, and its price would certainly be significantly affected.

"Such a small coin can sell for 950,000; I wonder who is buying these things."

Ye Su still had over 20 million in savings, and conservatively estimated, he could have another 20 million or more in income this week.

But to ask him to take out over a million to buy such a small trinket, Ye Su asked himself, he really couldn't bring himself to do it.

"I can only say that I am not the target audience for these things."

After examining this republic of china commemorative twenty wen copper coin, Ye Su wrapped it in a tissue, stuffed it into the armrest box, and then opened the system to take out the ten special stones he had obtained from the [storage space].

With a flash of light, ten stones of various shapes appeared in Ye Su's hand. The smallest one was about one centimeter, and the largest one was no more than two or three centimeters.

"I don't know what Hidden Attribute these stones can activate."

Activating the Hidden Attribute of a Mysterious Surprise Item costs 99 yuan.

However, this time he needed to activate ten stones, and the system's fee was still 99 yuan.

Ye Su did not hesitate and sent a command to the system.

"Spend 99 yuan to activate the Hidden Attribute of [Mysterious Surprise Item - stones]!"

[[Stones - Hidden Attribute] is activating, please wait, Host...]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining the Mysterious Surprise Item: lucky stones (ten pieces)!]

[lucky stones skill: Fortune Smiles Upon You!]

[Fortune Smiles Upon You skill description: Carrying [lucky stones] with you can increase the wearer's luck!]
