The lunch was a great success for both the host and the guests. Although Bai Li thought the finished dishes still had some minor flaws, the taste of the natural ingredients was so good that everyone thought the meal tasted good.
As the "chefs" of this big table of food, Yan Siya and Hu Yi were very encouraged and said that they would practice more in the future and strive to make better and more delicious food.
After spending half a day together, the two families got along well and decided to set a date for Bai Li and Wen Xingyao, so they started to discuss the specific date for the engagement. Bai Li had no objection to this, and only said that there was no need for a big wedding, and that everything should be simple, so he left the matter to his parents and brother to play freely, and took Wen Xingyao to go and tidy up the small garden.
Wen Xiao had known Bai Li three years ago. Both he and his grandson were freed from "genetic collapse syndrome" with Bai Li's help. At this time, he wished that Bai Li was his own grandson. He nodded and agreed with all his in-laws' ideas and plans with a smile, without any objection.
A day passed quickly, and the small garden had taken shape. Wen Xingyao said goodbye to Bai Li reluctantly and agreed to meet again in the game later.
At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, Starbo and the Game Forum held the prize draw at the same time, with a total of 70 million game places available, which was enough to be called a carnival on Starnet.
Netizens waiting for good luck to come get up early, bathe themselves, burn incense, and dress up. Some even spend huge amounts of money to change themselves into a new set of clothes from head to toe, inside and out, just to be blessed by the legendary god of luck.
In today's online world, the efficiency of lottery draws is always high. Once the scheduled time arrives, the almost unending list of winners is announced the next second. The densely packed winning IDs on the list make netizens dizzy.
This is just for public announcement. To find out whether you have won the prize, just check whether you have received a private message from Xingbo or the forum.
“Xingyun: Hahahaha! I won, and I won the biggest prize, a spot in the family deluxe three-player game. There just happen to be three people in my family, so I have a feeling that I’m going to be the hero of the whole family! Here, give me all the pocket money you can’t spend!”
"Proverbs: I'm different. I only won the third prize, which means I only have one game spot. But in our family of five, everyone won the third prize. So the probability of winning is still very high! Please call us a lucky family from now on~"
"Xingxing and Yutu cried out 'Woof'! Five minutes, I waited for five minutes. I almost tore through the private message pages of Xingbo and the forum, but I still didn't get the letter I wanted! I accepted my fate... Brothers and sisters, uncles and aunts, please do my part in farming in the game QAQ!"
“Bingbing: Hehe, although I didn’t win the prize on Xingbo, I’m still on the forum’s winners list! It’s worth it that I mobilized the entire community and all the netizens on social accounts to help me like it. And, I have to thank myself too. I have been searching for mutual likes posts in the forum for the past three days. These three combined have made my post rank in the top 500,000 in terms of likes. Woohoo, I’m really awesome!”
"Mu Fan: I didn't win a place in the game, and I only got a consolation prize of a vegetable gift bag... I don't know if this is my luck or misfortune. I don't care. When I receive the vegetables that Li Li gave me, I will have a big meal!"
"Mu Se Jing Xue: Report!!! I won two on Xingbo, and one each from two posts on the forum. Someone in my family won the game earlier than me. I'm single now, so I have three game spots unused. Is there anyone who needs them? I'll sell them to you at a right price~"
All netizens: ??? What kind of human koi is this!
Bai Li: ??? The fat sheep is actually me?
I touched the top of my head and it felt bald. :)
However, since these places were won by the netizen named "Mu Se Jing Xue" based on his own ability, Bai Li would not really feel that he was taken advantage of. He just smiled and let it go. As for the three extra game places, let those in need compete for them themselves.
On May 10, Bai Li announced the gameplay of this month's event "Harvest Festival" in advance on Xingbo and the forum to warm up for it. This event is different from the multiplayer competition in the past few sessions. There is no need for physical contact between players. Their weapons are the various achievements they have obtained during the game.
Crops, fruits, fish and livestock, there are four major categories in total.
During the event, players are only allowed to submit once for the same type of item. For example, for wheat, players can only submit the largest one they have, and they cannot submit the second one.
The submitted items will be compared horizontally for the same type, and quality, size and weight will be used as the basis for scoring. The one with the highest score will be awarded the title of "King of XX" this year, and its owner will also receive certain rewards.
Of course, with so many people participating in the competition, it is impossible to select only the first place. Bai Li has carefully divided the rewards for each village and each section to ensure that even the last place can get an encouraging participation award.
In addition, he also set up treasure chests and celebratory activities in every corner of the game world. In order to prevent villages from exchanging what they have, the conditions for opening these treasure chests and small activities are random, encouraging players to explore freely and get more activity rewards.
As for the specific prop rewards, Bai Li kept it a secret and said that they would be announced on the 15th.
Both new and old players are familiar with the process of the event. After reading the general gameplay, they all clenched their fists and said: All the good things I have accumulated these days/months are finally put to use!
Some players excitedly reminded: Brothers, hurry up and level up your character. Even if you don’t have time, you should find others to buy more crop illustrations. The rewards are all giant crop seeds! With them, are you still worried that you can’t grow giant crops? ?
Although there are still five days before the event officially starts, the gaming world is already in turmoil.
As for the instigator of this commotion, Bai Li smiled at the cute (?) appearance of the players working hard for unknown honors, and planted all the giant crop seeds he had saved in the yard. Well, he couldn't lose at the starting line.
Bai Li became serious, and Wen Xingyao, who was aiming for the top spot in the server, spent almost the entire day in the game. He spent money, bought magical spring water, fertilizers, high-level baits and other props, and the first thing he did when he went online was to water and fertilize the pear tree in the yard, trying to make it bear huge pears.
After that, he would add nutrients to the crops in the field one round after another. Even though he grew bigger crops than usual, he did not become complacent. Instead, he would go to the night market at the entrance of the village from time to time to see if he could pick up some giant seeds that others were selling.
In addition, he also did not miss fishing. While waiting for the crops in the fields to mature, he would often go to various fishing spots, trying to catch all the fish, and then select the largest and heaviest one to submit.
Except for Bai Li, no one else could understand Wen Xingyao's various behaviors. As time went by, gossip about Wen Xingyao spread among the villagers of the "Mushroom Village" who already knew Wen Xingyao's real identity.
"Could it be that there is a problem in the relationship between the Admiral and Li Li, and the Admiral turned all his bitterness into motivation to farm, watering the land of the game with his sweat?"
"It can't be a fight between gay lovers, right? Who can determine status based on who is better at farming? It feels a bit childish. Why?"
"Admiral Blind Guess's personal assets have reached a new height. He wants to spend money on Li Li, but Li Li refuses to accept it. He can only support Li Li's career quietly, so he goes crazy shopping in the game mall. The things he buys can't just keep piling up, so he increases the amount he spends every day?"
"Well, can't you guys guess in a conventional direction? For example, the Admiral is just purely for this month's event, he wants to get first place, and wants Li Li to look at him with a little bit of respect?"
“Hahahaha! He’s Admiral Wen Xingyao, how could he be so unconfident? If I had his combat power, I would definitely tattoo the words ‘Imperial Combat Power Ceiling’ on myself!”
It's so tragic, so tragic. It is obviously the most likely reason, but it is recognized by the least people. Everyone is more willing to believe the previous speculations.
Wen Xingyao accidentally heard the rumors in the village and was shocked. He thought that the imaginations of the players this time were really wild. However, he did not want his "bet" with Bai Li to be made public to avoid having any inexplicable competitors, so he forced himself to hold it in and pretended that he knew nothing.
At the same time, he worked even harder on farming.
While he was madly farming, he also did not miss the engagement party in real life. The people of the Zhu and Wen families respected Bai Li and Wen Xingyao's plan to keep everything simple, and did not hold a big party. They just gathered close relatives and friends together for a meal.
However, Wen Xiao also told them after the meal that this was just an engagement, so it was fine to keep it simple, but the real wedding could not be so simple and plain. It was allowed to be a little low-key, with fewer guests, but the necessary places had to be in place. He pulled the two of them to talk about some bits and pieces, and to summarize it simply, that is, to achieve the seven words of "low-key, luxurious and meaningful".
Bai Li and Wen Xingyao quickly exchanged glances, understood each other's eyes, and nodded at the same time to assure Wen Xiao.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I know what to do."
"Grandpa Wen, we all listen to you."
Wen Xiao looked at Bai Li with satisfaction, glared at Wen Xingyao, and laughed out loud: "Hahaha, our little fox is still good at talking. Let me handle this matter. I promise to leave you with an unforgettable impression!"
What else could Bai Li and Wen Xingyao do? They naturally agreed. Fortunately, they both had a strong ability to accept any wedding theme.
But it’s too early to talk about this now, as the eight characters have just been written.
After completing the trip to the "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall Star", Bai Li took Wen Xingyao and other young people from the Sky Fox Clan and organized a short-term construction team. They made a major transformation of the clan territories of the Fire Winged Lion Clan, Turtle Clan, Deer Clan, Leopard Clan and Pigeon Clan based on the appearance of their own clan territories.
Now many places in these tribal lands are covered with fertile soil and sown with seeds of flowers and vegetables. Those with more financial resources have also ordered a large number of saplings from Baili, and they have all been planted at this time.
After clearing most of the ordinary saplings on hand, Bai Li couldn't sit still and wanted to go back to "Star of Hope" to take a look. He didn't know whether the seedlings in the secret realm had grown well during his absence.
After he told his three family members about his idea, they let him go and only asked him to call home once in a while and not to run away from home again. Bai Li raised his head to the sky with shame on his face and swore that he would never do it again.
At the same time, after experiencing the farming life with the young master for a period of time, the young people of the Sky Fox clan became addicted and cried and made a fuss to go out with Bai Li. They also got passes. Among them was Song Xinran, the young apprentice certified by Bai Li himself.
Then, several elders also received the news and quickly packed up the young people in their tribes and sent them to Bai Li.
Bai Li came to "Buddha Jumps Over the Wall" with a simple car, but when he returned, he brought his whole family with him, and he brought more than just one family with him...
