Chapter 47 Entering the Cold Winter
"Well, I heard from my little brother that the pumpkins here at Mr. Mo are sweet and sticky, and especially delicious, so I also want to get some to try."
Yun Qimu carried the basket and smiled as he walked. "It just so happens that the green vegetables in my yard have grown again. Plus, the Danghu chickens I won from the treasure chest before were all whole, so I still have a lot of meat left, so I brought it here to trade."
Pei Yu's peach blossom eyes widened in envy, and she said sourly, "You're so lucky! The treasure chests I open only contain a chicken wing, a chicken drumstick, or a piece of chicken breast—not even enough to fill a gap in my stomach. What's even more tragic is that sometimes I get an empty chest. Oh, oh, oh~~ It's so hard for me!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Xingyu and the other two who were walking nearby also looked curiously at the basket in Yun Qimu's hand.
However, the first thing they noticed were the tender and green vegetables in the basket.
Wu Xingyu's silver eyes flickered slightly, and he swallowed silently.
After running around outside for so long, he hadn't eaten fresh vegetables grown by elves for a long time. As for the meat that Pei Yu mentioned, he didn't even look at it. Although the meat looked fresh and tender without any impurities, he was already extremely disappointed with the meat of exotic beasts and could not understand Pei Yu's desire and greed at all.
He tilted his head and thought about it, and finally attributed it to the fact that the Exile Star was too bitter. It was understandable that people who couldn't even eat normal meat would be as greedy as a big dog seeing a big bone when they saw the meat.
"There is a bathroom inside. You can go in and take a shower." Mo Xie pushed open the door of the cabin and said to Wu Xingyu and the other three with an expressionless face.
"Ah, oh oh oh."
Pei Yu's eyes moved, and he rushed forward, intending to be the first to go in and wash before the three of them, but Wu Xingyu was quick-eyed and quick-handed and grabbed the back of his collar.
Pei Yu, who would never compromise for the sake of her pretty face, showed no fear this time and immediately fought Wu Xingyu with bare hands for three hundred rounds.
Not to mention, Pei Yu usually dresses and speaks in a feminine way, but his boxing skills are quite good, and he can still fight very well when he gets tough. He looks like a completely different person from the weakling who was pressed into the mud without any ability to fight back before.
In short, Yun Qimu has changed his opinion of him now.
Yunhe and Yuanan, the two poor little guys, stood huddled together in the courtyard, staring eagerly, not daring to go up and grab a seat.
"Hey, it seems like it's raining." Yunhe blinked and raised his hand to touch his forehead.
The mud, which had originally become dry, now became a little more blurred due to the moisture.
"No, it's snowing." Yuan An, who was standing beside him, looked up at the sky and spoke in surprise with a look of surprise on his muddy face.
The originally blue sky turned gray, and crystal clear hexagonal snowflakes fell one by one.
In the blink of an eye, the small snowflakes grew bigger and bigger, and soon turned into heavy snow flakes, covering the vibrant global village with a layer of pure and flawless silver in the blink of an eye.
[Ding Dong—The global village has entered a cold winter. Please, villagers, do your best to survive!]
The system's voice rang in the ears of all the villagers in the global village. After this village-wide announcement, the villagers, who seemed to be separated by a layer, immediately felt the chill coming from all directions.
White air was exhaled from his mouth, making him shiver all over.
"Hiss, it's so cold!"
Yun Qimu's expression changed and he immediately opened the player information panel. Sure enough, he found a new line of words in the health column.
(During the cold winter months, players have already contracted a negative status, losing 100 health points per hour.)
Cloud Dusk:
She had so many mmps to say in her heart.
He questioned dissatisfiedly, "What's going on? Why didn't the game have seasons before, but now it has?"
Mastermind: [You said it was in the past, and you said it was a game. Now our Global Village is a legitimate, real-world village, so naturally there must be seasons.]
Yun Qimu frowned, raised her brows, and gritted her teeth viciously. She swore that she heard gloating in the mechanical voice of the main brain.
So she continued to protest, "Then why is it winter? It's scorching hot outside on the Exile Planet, but our global village is covered in snow. This doesn't make sense."
In order to complete the task of doubling the population of the global village in 15 days, she had already thought of the plan.
First, send sightseeing invitations to nearby tribes, inviting them to come to the global village to experience the beautiful spring and pay to pick delicious fruits.
She also named this event "Global Village Spring Picking Tour".
But now the mastermind is causing trouble, and it's even snowing for her. Doesn't that mean her plan will be shelved?
[Host, rest assured, this game is absolutely legitimate and reasonable. According to the seasonal changes billions of years ago, the current season on Exile is indeed winter. Please pay attention to the winter weather and take precautions against the cold to ensure the safety of the residents. If your health drops to 0, you will actually die.]
Yunqimu: "I'm 7*&…%C/#"
She couldn't help but swear, and quickly adjusted her plan in her mind, changing the "Global Village Spring Picking Tour" to the "Winter Shaved Ice Snowman Tour" with one click.
"Fuck, look, my cousin's flowers are gone."
Pei Yu suddenly howled miserably, and the trembling people in the courtyard subconsciously looked over.
The green in the global village disappeared rapidly, and the grass and trees changed from light green to dark green, from dark green to dry yellow, and finally withered away at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Only the row of Danmu fruit trees at the edge of the village, some green and some red, still look full of vitality.
Switching the camera again, the orchids in Mo Xie's yard were rapidly withering, and the colorful orchids turned into dead branches and yellow leaves in the blink of an eye. In other words, the plant culture medium he had bought at a high price before was all wasted in an instant.
In the yard, the pumpkin vines that were originally covered by clusters of beautiful orchids were exposed after being removed from the cover. However, the vibrant green leaves on the vines quickly turned yellow, leaving only the dry and dead vines and the reddish-brown pumpkins that looked like small millstones on the vines.
Yun Qimu looked over with his eyes sparkling and licked his lips. The pumpkin was still good, very good.
Wu Xingyu and the others did not expect this change. They all looked at it curiously. It turned out that this was a pumpkin. They had never seen this kind of fruit before and didn't know what it tasted like.
Only Mo Xie's face was dark and ugly, with a murderous aura oozing out of him. Pei Yu was so scared that he immediately shook off Wu Xingyu's hand and quickly jumped more than a meter away.
"Cousin, don't worry. Look, the orchids in the field outside are still blooming. They're just a little bit listless. Maybe they can still be saved."
Mo Xie's deep eyes paused, and he immediately turned to Yun Qimu and asked anxiously, "What can the village chief do?"
Yun Qimu, who was crouching down and craving the little pumpkin, heard this, touched his nose, looked at him, and said thoughtfully, "Perhaps you can build a greenhouse?"
