"Ding, poisonous mushrooms found..."
"I found a nest of Acanthopanax fasciata mushrooms five meters ahead..."
With the system's prompts, Ning Xi reaped a bountiful harvest, and her small backpack was half full. Of course, the greatest value was still in the items that were put on the system mall.
"Ding! The mall has reached the upgrade standard and will be upgraded to level 2. Please give your mall a nice name~"
Ning Xi was not good at naming, so she said without hesitation: "Let's call it Ning Xi's Shop."
System: "Received. The shop is officially named - 'Ningxi's Shop Bar'. The shop has been successfully upgraded and can be checked at any time."
Ning Xi: ......
System, are you looking for a fight?
"The shop has reached level 2. You can spend 100 star coins to randomly add a host from another plane. Do you want to spend it?"
"Wait a minute, I'd better pick some mushrooms first." Since she was here, she might as well maximize the profits. She wasn't tired anyway, and she could still continue to make money!
As others say, you may not be able to carry a hundred pounds of bricks, but you can definitely carry 100 pounds of cash.
Ning Xi has the same mentality now. She may not be able to bear doing farm work for a whole day, but picking mushrooms and selling them for money is definitely easy.
It turns out that interests are the booster of action.
If possible, she would like to live in this mountain.
"Hey? Why are there two peach trees here!" Zhang Xing's loud voice sounded in front.
This is a ravine, in a shady place. There are two peach trees in the forest. They are full of peaches. Some of them have fallen to the ground, giving off a smell of rotten fruit.
This peach is not big, about the size of a child's fist, and its skin is yellow with red.
The trunk is thick and black, and it looks quite old.
"Little sister, can we pick these peaches?" Zhang Xing asked the little girl who led them.
They are not from the village, so it would be better to ask first.
"Yes! Ladies, I'll help you pick them. I'm good at climbing trees." The little girl, Chunfen, climbed up the tree nimbly.
Although the peach is small and the skin is still rough, it has a strong peach fragrance. If everyone's hands had not touched mushrooms, they would have started eating it by now!
The two peach trees were quickly cleared out, leaving only some peaches that had been eaten by birds.
Chunfen jumped down from the tree, picked up a peach, wiped it on the hem of her clothes, took a bite, and said as she ate, "If I don't pick these peaches, they will rot in two days and it will be a waste."
The mountain people don't really like these fruits.
A few of them continued to pick mushrooms and walked up all the way. When they reached the top of the mountain, no one could straighten their backs and everyone was gasping for breath.
"Flutter, flutter, flutter—" A flock of birds flew over their heads, and several unidentified objects fell down.
Ning Xi was very grateful for her agility at this moment, otherwise she would have been hit accurately.
"These are not wild geese, why are they flying in groups?" Ning Xi was puzzled as she watched the birds flying around in a large group.
"Look! Is that a wild boar?" Chunfen was climbing up a big tree.
There is a kind of parasitic vine on this tree. Yellow rice-sized fruits grow on the vine. They are sweet. She just wants to get some to eat.
Ning Xi looked down in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, there was a group of wild boars running wildly downwards!
There was movement everywhere in the woods.
It seemed as if this quiet mountain suddenly became active.
"System, why do I feel a little panicked?" Ning Xi said as she found a big tree and climbed up.
Fortunately, she still had some tree-climbing skills from her childhood, and with the help of her strength, she quickly climbed to the top of the tree.
She hugged the tree tightly and looked down, but all she could see was a big river.
"System, can you buy me a telescope, the kind with optical invisibility?" Although she is in a high position and others may not be able to see her, what if?
"Okay, thank you for your patronage, 50 star coins!"
As soon as the system finished speaking, a pair of glasses suddenly fell on Ning Xi's nose. The system had automatically adjusted the parameters for her.
At this moment, she could see the condition of the river clearly.
The river has dried up!
Logically speaking, it had been raining for a while, so this situation should not have happened. Coupled with the abnormal behavior of the animals just now, Ning Xi had a bold guess in her mind.
There was a mudslide or landslide upstream of the river, blocking the river!
"System, can this be adjusted? I want to see farther."
"Host, just touch the right frame."
Ning Xi held the tree trunk tightly with one hand and used the other hand to operate according to the system's instructions, and indeed she saw farther away.
There was only a thick fog there, and the river water was filled with a lot of debris, making it turbid.
Damn! The way the water is flowing, the commune is definitely going to be in trouble!
Ning Xi put away her things and slid down.
Everyone was looking down, their faces filled with panic. When they saw her coming down, they rushed forward and surrounded her, asking, "Xiaoxi, what's going on? What did you see?"
Lin Xiaofang touched her arm and found goose bumps all over it. She was also very panicked.
"Stay here and don't run around, and don't go down the mountain!" Ning Xi hurriedly instructed, "Chunfen, there's a mudslide coming over there, and the commune might be swept away. I need to go down and notify them. Who should I contact best?"
According to the distance, Ning Xi estimated that with his own speed, he would be able to retreat completely.
It would be fine if he didn't know or was unable to do so, but Ning Xi was afraid that she would feel guilty for the rest of her life if she knew and had the ability but still didn't notify the villagers down the mountain to evacuate.
"mudslide?!"
Some people were puzzled: "Why can't we go down the mountain? What if the mountain collapses? Wouldn't we be finished?"
"Sister Xiaoxi, I'll go down with you. I can run fast!" Chunfen didn't know what a mudslide was, but she heard from her ancestors that if the mountain god got angry, everything would be destroyed!
"The direction of this mountain is perpendicular to the direction of the debris flow. Also, when I was climbing up the mountain, I noticed there were a lot of rocks. This mountain must be quite solid."
Time was urgent, Ning Xi didn't dare to stay any longer, so she threw the backpack away and ran down the mountain.
Chunfen couldn't catch up with her at all, but she still had to follow her.
Her younger brothers and sisters are at home, and she is worried.
Ning Xi was like a monkey, running when there was a way and jumping when there was no way. Anyway, she had a system, so she was not afraid of hurting herself.
“Bang—”
A little wild boar that was fleeing in a hurry bumped into a tree trunk and fainted. Ning Xi picked it up and threw it into the space.
I didn't expect to have such a harvest.
She came down the mountain in a short while. According to Chunfen, there was a big bell on the east side of the drying yard. As long as the bell was rung, everyone would gather. This was the rule of the team.
A few children were still turning over the millet to dry there, wondering why the sky was getting a little cloudy. They were hesitating whether to put the millet away when suddenly a shadow ran past them.
Give the kids a scare.
"What was that just now? Was it the wind? Why does it feel a little cold?"
"Me too. It's so cold. Never mind. Let's harvest the grain quickly, or it will get moldy again if it gets wet in the rain."
