Half an hour later, they planted fruit trees in their yards, Wen Xingyao's was a pear tree, Bai Li's was an orange tree. Following the usual sense of symmetry, the former planted the pear tree on the right side of the house, and the latter planted the orange tree on the left side of the house.
After planting the trees, there was no reason for them to stay together any longer, so they separated and went about their own business.
Compared to the new players, the life of the villagers in the Mushroom Village is actually not much different from usual. Bai Li thought that he hadn't been to the forest to collect for a while, so he decided to go there.
As a result, when he left the village, he found that the players were very different from usual. Unlike the leisurely ones in the past, they were in a hurry and kept looking around. As long as there was a little movement, their eyes would quickly look in that direction.
A sparrow flew across the sky, dropping a tiny piece of fluff. At least five players noticed the fluff and ran over like hungry tigers, waiting under the fluff. As soon as it fell within their reach, they began to jump and scramble for it.
"Mine! I saw it first, don't snatch it from me!"
"What do you mean by yours? I saw it first. Didn't you see that the bird flew out from the direction of my house? This means that it and I are destined to be together!"
"Ah, ah! How dare you fight over a bird feather like this? Just give it to me, your brother~"
"You wish! Of course whoever grabs it first gets it. I've been squatting next to it for quite some time!"
It was not enough to just talk, a few grown men actually did unreasonable things like tearing off each other's clothes, scalping and picking each other's nostrils, which frightened those who saw it and made them dare not get involved.
During the argument, a small piece of fluff fell into the hands of the only player who didn't speak. He quickly stuffed the fluff into his backpack and gave a smug smile to the other four.
"Don't fight, this hair is mine!"
"Hmph!!!" X4
The fuzz war is not the end, but the beginning.
Next, Bai Li watched a group of players rushing forward to pick up the pale yellow petals that had fallen from a tree, using sharp knives to cut the huge grass leaves that were everywhere on the roadside, and holding a strangely shaped branch and shouting "I'm so lucky", while others cast envious glances at him.
All of this made Bai Li almost suspect that he was dreaming. Otherwise, why would the players' behavior become incomprehensible even to him, the game maker, after just a few hours of absence?
Was it the way he entered the game that was wrong, or was this just the nature of the interstellar people?
Just as Bai Li was planning to look for someone he knew nearby to ask what was going on, cheers came from the river not far away.
The players heard it and walked over there happily. Bai Li was also moved by the crowd and walked towards the direction where the sound came from.
After arriving at the destination, he noticed that a famous player was holding a huge crab in his hand and excitedly talking to the people around him.
Well, it looks like another good pet has been born. If the player is lucky, maybe he can use a crab as a means of transportation like Su Zike in the future. Bai Li thought.
Unfortunately, things did not develop as he thought.
Zi Li is the owner of the crab and also the one who caught the crab. He was lucky enough to order a spicy crab from the "vegetable basket" before. The crab meat was spicy and tender, and it tasted very good. He still thinks about it from time to time.
But today, he could only say goodbye to the spicy crab in his heart, because he had a better use for this crab.
He said to his friend, "Haha, finally I can catch more than just fish. Look at this crab shell, so big and hard. Look at these crab legs, so majestic. If I use them as materials to upgrade my hut, it should give my hut a good protective capability."
My friend also agreed with this statement: "Yeah, this idea is very possible! Just like XXX, when he submitted the upgrade materials for the exterior of his house, he added the teeth of some unknown animal he picked up in the forest. After the upgrade, the eaves of the house became as beautiful as white jade, and when you hit it with a stick, it can even make a sound like jade knocking!"
Hearing this, Zi Li looked at the crab in his hand with more satisfaction. He began to imagine that after his hut was upgraded, a crab leg would grow on each side. Wouldn't it be wonderful if one crab leg could help him farm and the other one could help him water? If possible, he hoped that the crab legs would be red, festive!
The two did not lower their voices during their conversation, and the people around them heard it clearly. Those who had similar ideas immediately stopped watching the fun and waved their fishing rods to fish more seriously. The players who had not learned the "fishing" skill also stared at the big crab for a while, then turned around and went back the way they came. Instead of envying others here, it is better to work hard and try to find special and rare upgrade materials!
Bai Li, who watched all this, had a very complicated mood and expression.
On the one hand, he was surprised that players seemed to have lost interest in pets. They were rare species, but they could decide their fate as house upgrade materials without batting an eyelid. But on the other hand, he wondered if these players had gone astray.
It would be fine if you just wanted to upgrade the house without collecting precious wood and stone, but why do you have to deal with all kinds of miscellaneous things?
Animal teeth? Crabs? Sparrow hair? Flower petals, grass leaves and twigs? ? ?
Bai Li finally understood what this group of players were doing. They were collecting these strange things, probably to upgrade their houses, right?
Admittedly, he did not set any restrictions on materials when he launched the "House Appearance Upgrade" gameplay. But his idea was that he provided a detailed list of materials in the "Village Chief's Residence" mission, so even if players didn't know how to match them at first, they could always copy them, right?
Collect as many materials as you can from the materials list and submit them all at once. The upgraded house will definitely be stronger and better looking than the original one. Do this several times, and as you gain experience, you can then make your own combinations and turn your house into what you want.
Instead of what is happening now, players began to pursue curiosity and individuality, treating the house they live in the game as a blank sheet of paper, graffiti on it in a way that only a three-year-old child can perfectly master, and taking pride in it, using the upgraded house as their capital for showing off.
Bai Li raised his head and thought about it, and felt that the scene was so beautiful that looking at it for one more moment would reduce one hour of his life.
So suffocating!
And at this moment, someone finally discovered Bai Li's existence.
"Boss Li Bai! Oh no, Li Li! Why are you here? Are you here to collect materials as well?"
Bai Li habitually put on a calm smile and greeted people: "Hello... I'm not here to collect materials, I just come to take a look, take a look..."
"Oh, I see..." The players were a little disappointed. They had originally thought that they could exchange experiences on house upgrades with the game maker. Seeing that Bai Li looked like he didn't want to say more, although they didn't guess that he was resisting the various strange-shaped houses that he would face in the near future, they were tactful enough to stop talking.
Bai Li thought about it and couldn't help but advise: "Have you ever thought about giving up collecting these props and choosing more common materials, such as soil, stones, wood, or copper, iron, gold and other materials as props for upgrading houses? You have visited the village chief's house many times, right? Have you ever thought about making your own house the same as the village chief's?"
His words were truly heart-touching. Many players showed thoughtful expressions after listening to them, but this thought was ultimately occupied by the exploration of unknown things deep in their hearts. Someone stood up, shook his head at Bai Li, and said, "Li Li, what you said does make sense. Who doesn't like the village chief's house? But we can't build it in the style of his house just because we like it. We have to add some of our own ideas, so that it will be more interesting!"
"Yeah, yeah." Someone else stood up and made funny faces at Bai Li, then said, "Besides, I've already researched it. The upgrade of the house's exterior can be reset at any time, and it only costs a little to upgrade. If we're not satisfied with the upgrade results from the materials we found, we can just dismantle it and rebuild it. When playing games, you have to keep fiddling with it, hehe!"
Bai Li was also amused by this statement and no longer worried about the fact that the players' brains worked faster than his. Since they thought there was nothing wrong with doing this, he would let them "mess around". Just like the person before him said, this was a game anyway and they had no shortage of the cost of trial and error.
If the house is broken, you have to tear it down and rebuild it. When all the money is spent, you continue to farm and sell crops. What you play is the management of your game life.
"Since everyone thinks so, I won't say anything more. Just play according to your own ideas." After Bai Li finished speaking, he followed the players with great interest and found a few interesting gadgets, wondering whether he should also upgrade like them.
Another day passed, and under the repeated urging of his parents, Lin Wenhuan reluctantly came out of the game and had dinner with his family.
Dinner was just a gimmick. After all, how could drinking a few bottles of nutrient solution be considered a normal meal? We finished eating before we could even say a few words.
Lin's father and mother mainly wanted to hear their daughter talk more about her life in the game, such as farming, fishing, and eating all kinds of delicious food. It was much more interesting than in reality!
Lin Wenhuan tilted his head back and drank the most basic tasteless nutrient solution in one gulp. He smacked his lips a few times and cast a disdainful look at the empty shell, muttering, "The well water in the game tastes better than this. When will the nutrient solution company cooperate with our Li Li?"
"Is this true?" Mother Lin opened her eyes wide, looking like she didn't believe it. "Huanhuan, tell me what you did in Leisurely Farming today, what level your character is at, and what crops you can grow?"
She and her husband are ordinary people, and they don't have much demand for holographic games. They are usually busy with work and don't have much time to play. It was not until they saw the hot search on Starnet a few days ago that they knew about the game "You Ran Tian Ju". When they were tempted to play this game, the game quota had been taken up.
Later, they found out that their beloved daughter actually had a precious game spot and became one of the one million players. They had to ask her about her experience in the game every day.
Lin Wenhuan felt somewhat guilty towards her parents' superiors. After all, she had two places available but gave the extra one to her best friend.
I knew in my heart that even if I told my parents about this, they would understand my behavior. Besides, there was only one spot and it would be unreasonable to give it to anyone. There was a high possibility that the matter would be easily covered up.
But she still made up her mind that if she had the chance in the future, she would follow the example of the "Mushroom Village" player Huai Bi, strive for new game spots through game activities, and then give them to her parents.
But this is something that will happen in the future, so now I should tell my parents about my experiences of the day.
