“Squeak—”
A head popped out from the half-open door, but he didn't expect there were so many people standing outside the door. It was so dark and he was so scared that he half-shrank back. After a second, he half-stepped out of the door and asked, "What happened? Why are there so many people here?"
When Bai Li showed up, the players who had almost believed that "some player had obtained two game qualifications through inferior means" realized that it was all a misunderstanding, so they waved their hands and took a few steps back to make way for Bai Li.
But I can't bear to leave.
His eyes were fixed on the golden field of ripe wheat in front of Bai Li's house, and his nose was sniffing in their direction, with an intoxicated look on his face.
Bai Li really suspected that what he was planting was not wheat, but catnip, and the large group of players in front of him were just cats of various colors with slightly rough looks...their little expressions were all the same.
"Ahem, you guys...is there anything else?" This was the first time he saw so many people since he traveled through time.
“…Well, brother, what is this thing you have? It smells weird…” The person standing at the front asked the question on behalf of everyone, with big question marks in his little eyes.
Everyone knew that they were playing a farming game, but in fact most people had no idea what farming was, and most of them couldn't even recognize all the crops and vegetables. At this time, the players present didn't even come to play the game sincerely at the beginning, but to find fault.
Later on... while I was weeding, I suddenly smelled a sweet fragrance.
Before the nine wheat plants in front of them matured, they all thought weeding was the most fun way to play, but now... they were wrong again. Farming is really the best way! Farming can actually produce such a fragrant treasure!
Bai Li replied: "This is wheat, don't you know it?"
"Wheat?! How is this possible? How can this be wheat? How can wheat smell so good?"
"That's right, don't lie to us. I bought a bag of wheat flour from StarNet Supermarket yesterday, and the smell... hey, it smells like air, there is no smell at all!"
"What's the point of lying to us?! Brother Qiuqiu, please tell us the name of this plant. The child will cry because of the fragrance!"
Bai Li didn't expect the players to react like this. He was telling the truth, but no one believed him. He turned his head and glanced at Wen Xingyao next to him, and keenly caught a hint of smile in his eyes.
Noticing his gaze, Wen Xingyao looked over, shrugged, and gave him a helpless look. He had already accepted the fact that it was Xiaomai, but the others obviously disagreed.
"This is really wheat... And this smell is only emitted from wheat, a unique smell of grain. It shouldn't be too fragrant, right?"
Bai Li restored all the plants in the game one-to-one according to their real-life counterparts. Not only their shapes, but also their smell and taste are the same as he remembered.
Therefore, when he saw the wheat ripe, he did not react too much and was quite calm.
Compared with Bai Li, all the other players were stimulated by the aroma of wheat and jumped up and down. One moment they felt it smelled so good, and the next moment they felt so hungry.
It’s obvious that they all played the game after dinner!
When everyone heard Bai Li say that the golden plant with such a charming fragrance was actually wheat, they didn't believe it. However, Bai Li looked at them seriously, without any guilt at all for lying.
Could it be that... this is really wheat?
When the players were doubting their lives, Bai Li started to act. He took out his sickle and harvested the wheat that was growing well in the field with a few slashes without blinking an eye.
Watching the wheat disappear in Bai Li's hands and the land becoming idle again, the crowd sighed "Ah..." and "Oh..." from time to time, as if what Bai Li was cutting was not wheat, but their lifeblood.
Bai Li pretended not to hear and moved his hands faster.
Soon, all the wheat was harvested, and the nine plots of land became flat again, waiting for the next round of planting. Bai Li glanced at Wen Xingyao's land next door and found that the second time he planted corn, the corn stalks had grown as high as an adult's calf. It seemed that he had used the magical spring water again.
...Even the wheat he planted was probably watered by the spring water. This person was so generous that he felt a little embarrassed.
But now that there are so many people around, Bai Li couldn't discuss with them whether he should water his land. After thinking for a while, he stepped forward and said, "Everyone, don't gather here. This is really ordinary wheat seeds. You can buy them from the village chief. Each seed costs only 1 copper coin. If you like them, just buy them and plant them yourself. In addition to wheat seeds, the village chief also sells other seeds. There are many kinds. You can buy them according to your preferences."
After hearing what Bai Li said, no matter how reluctant they were, they had to accept the fact that the nine plants were wheat. After hearing that wheat seeds could be bought from the village chief, almost everyone decided to buy eight or ten seeds and plant them themselves. Once the planting was successful, they would not be willing to cut them down, and they must suck them to their heart's content!
The crowd finally left.
"Yaoxing, you watered my land with the magic spring water, right? Actually, you don't need to water it, just let them grow slowly."
"Well, what's the big deal? I have plenty of spring water here anyway. One person can't use it all. It's no big deal to give you some water." Wen Xingyao waved his hand indifferently, thinking it was just a small matter.
Bai Li could see that Wen Xingyao really didn't care at all, but he felt bad because of this little bit of kindness. He decided to "open a back door" for him.
When he opened the door earlier, he just happened to hear someone questioning whether Yaoxing had taken the back door. In this case, he might as well confirm the "back door" statement.
With an extended and pushed hand, an invisible light green light flew towards Wen Xingyao, quickly covering his entire body, and then gradually disappeared from his body.
The cool breath poured in from the top of his head, stimulating Wen Xingyao so much that his whole body shuddered. He immediately compared this change in his body with Bai Li's behavior just now: "You..." what did you do to me just now?
How can it be so comfortable? It seems like my soul has relaxed a lot.
Bai Li smiled and took over his words: "I'm giving you a buff. For the next two hours, the efficiency of your fields will be doubled, the harvest will be doubled, and the quality of the crops will also be improved. Make good use of these two hours."
It is said to be a buffed state, but in fact Bai Li has taken out a small portion of the pure and refreshing energy of plants and added it to Wen Xingyao. In addition to the effects mentioned above, it also has great benefits for the player himself, refreshing the mind, soothing the emotions, and if used in reality, it may even be able to heal hidden injuries on the body.
"So good!" Wen Xingyao's eyes lit up. He was at the peak of his interest in farming, and the gift from Bai Li touched his heart. He immediately accepted it with a smile on his face, without any refusal.
He even said: "It seems that I was right not to deny that I took the back door just now!"
In fact, I was so shocked that I forgot to refute.
Bai Li smiled, said nothing, said hello to Wen Xingyao, and left alone to another place where other players were.
Wen Xingyao knew Bai Li's identity and guessed that he might be going to observe the players' movements and needs, so he did not follow him.
In front of him was a field of thriving corn, but he had more important things to do.
After staring at the corn stalks for a while, Wen Xingyao suddenly took action, took out a hoe and continued digging holes around them.
Bai Li didn't know that after he left, Wen Xingyao had the idea of expanding the planting area and soon put it into action. He walked on the path for a long time and finally saw the players.
At this time, the smaller deep pit was surrounded by people.
One of them gave an order, and everyone had a small piece of soil in their hands. They held it in their hands and stared at the dark history of all of them with a serious look on their faces.
If this hole is not filled, you will never be able to get back the face you have lost.
"Brothers, when I say 'one, two, three', let's throw the dirt down together and see if we can fill up this hole. Everyone remember to throw accurately on your assigned task area and try to make this place flat again. Our house depends on this throw, and success or failure depends on this!"
"one two three!"
Swish, swish, swish, piece of soil after piece was thrown out, like hail. The pieces of soil slowly grew larger in mid-air, forming flying pancake shapes, stacking up layer by layer at the bottom of the pit.
After the first wave of throwing, the pit was filled up by a quarter. Everyone continued to work hard and threw three more waves. By the end of the fourth wave, the original pit had disappeared and the ground was slightly raised.
Seeing this, everyone started whispering to each other.
"Is that all right? Now that the pit is filled, can I put my little bamboo house out?"
"And where is my cabin and my neighbors? Let's plan the placement of the house together!"
"Huh?? Xiao X, why are you still throwing dirt into the pit? That's enough, the pit has been filled!"
Little X: "But I think it would be nice to pile the soil higher so that I can stand higher and see farther. Don't worry, I'm piling it on my own land and it won't hinder you." After saying that, he bought another 5 cubic meters of soil and threw it over in one breath.
A small earth slope was formed visibly.
Others: “…”
Wow, this place is higher than where all of them live!
How could this be possible? A mound of earth appeared on the flat ground, which not only ruined the appearance, but also stepped on everyone. From now on, when I look up from my hut, I can see the existence of that "high and mighty" person. Just thinking about it makes me feel very resistant.
If you can't stop it, then you can only join it.
So, everyone took action silently, and like Xiao X, they bought 5 cubic meters of soil and piled them on their own task sites without even looking at them. Before long, the place that was originally a deep pit turned into a trapezoid.
Looking at the hillside not far away, the small thatched houses, bamboo houses, wooden houses, and tiled houses appeared like mushrooms after the rain. The smile on Bai Li's face disappeared, and he raised his foot, but could no longer move forward.
Why do these players always show such great enthusiasm at strange points? ?
