The two of them stared at each other for at least half a minute before Wen Xingyao came back to his senses. He thought it wasn't okay to just stand there like this, so he pulled himself together and greeted Bai Li.
"Li Bai, are you going out for something?"
"Yeah." Bai Li nodded, "I'll go ask the village chief to open the breeding module and add a livestock shed to the yard."
Livestock? Aren't these just small animals? It's a good topic to start a conversation. Wen Xingyao concealed the dark light in his eyes and said without hesitation: "I'll go with you!"
During the time when the game was first launched, the two of them almost always acted together, and they were used to this kind of thing. Bai Li did not realize that there was a deeper meaning in these words, and simply agreed.
The area of the village has become larger, and the road to find the village chief has also become much longer. The two walked slowly on the road side by side. Wen Xingyao prepared a plan in his mind and asked tentatively: "Li Bai, after the game is updated, what specific types of small animals did you design?"
Bai Li thought Wen Xingyao was curious about how to play this game, so he counted on his fingers and answered patiently, "The players' levels are still very low, so I have only designed five kinds of livestock for now, namely chicks, ducklings, geese, piglets and cows. They are the same as seeds. They can only be purchased when the player's character reaches the specified level. For example, if you are level 15 now, you can buy chicks, ducklings and geese. These three types of animals mature at different times, but they use the same feed. You may not be familiar with them at the beginning, so I suggest you start with the most basic chicks."
Sounds like fun?
Wen Xingyao was almost distracted by Bai Li's words again. While secretly cursing himself for being unable to resist temptation, he continued to speak tenaciously: "What do those little animals look like? Um... I mean, are they very different from the real ones?"
On one of the agricultural planets under his name, half of the land was used to raise various livestock, such as chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, and cows that Bai Li mentioned. He had been to that planet several times, and the thing that impressed him most was the listless animals all over the ground. They didn't want to eat or move, as if they were full of despair for life. If it weren't for the fact that their physical conditions were still normal, at most they were malnourished, Wen Xingyao would have suspected that this was another manifestation of genetic collapse disorder.
Moreover, their meat is not delicious. Some is dry and tough, and some has a pungent fishy smell that is completely inedible.
Just over two months ago, the person in charge of that planet came to ask him whether he wanted to reduce the number of livestock raised.
Bai Li's answer interrupted Wen Xingyao's recollection of the past: "If there is a difference, there is still a little bit. After all, it is a game, and the design of the small animals should be a little cuter, especially since they are all cubs, so they will look more cute. You will know when you see it later."
What a good opportunity, we are talking about "cute" and "quick"! Wen Xingyao restrained his excitement and continued: "Li Bai, do you like cute animals? I wonder if you have raised cute animals in real life?"
My childhood... should have been cute, right? After Wen Xingyao realized what he had said to test Bai Li's opinion, his face began to turn red.
It's really embarrassing to praise myself for being cute now. Fortunately, no one else knew about it except him.
This question actually involves personal privacy, but Bai Li feels that, based on his own perspective on people, Yaoxing should not be the kind of person who would deliberately inquire about these things. Perhaps he is just simply curious?
He hesitated for a few seconds, but finally answered, "Well, you guessed right, I do have an orange kitten. He's a stray cat I picked up from outside. He's very cute and friendly, and more importantly, he can help me a lot."
An extremely standard answer not only let Wen Xingyao know that his guess was not wrong, but also supplemented the whole process of their meeting. It turned out that he was picked up by Bai Li from outside... He is so kind!
The above conclusion supported Wen Xingyao for a long time, and he always maintained a gentle attitude when interacting with Bai Li in the game. So much so that when his human consciousness finally awakened in his childhood body, he recalled the memories he had lost for nearly two months and found that he was the one who took the initiative to touch the porcelain, and he couldn't recover for a long time.
You are so meow, why?? ! !
Back to the topic.
Seeing that Xingyao was actually starting to wander off, Bai Li blinked, guessing that the other party might not be interested in the matter of the Supreme, so he skipped the topic and went back to talking about livestock breeding in the game.
He explained the purpose of opening this gameplay: "As you know, before the game was upgraded, there was only farming as a gameplay, and the products were only vegetables, fruits and grains. Although players can eat meat through the "vegetable basket" props in the mall, it is impossible to make it yourself. In addition, some players have obtained recipes that require meat, the simplest of which is eggs, which are not available in the game. Therefore, in my opinion, it is still necessary to add livestock gameplay."
"Like those chickens, ducks and geese, when they mature, they can lay an egg every day. If you think there are enough eggs, you can kill them and eat the meat directly. How great is that." At this point, Bai Li suddenly laughed, "You have to trust me as the creator. The vegetables in the game taste so good. These chickens, ducks and geese... are not only cute, but also taste great!"
That’s right, he is the emotionless harvester of food.
Bai Li didn't know how much his words had stimulated Wen Xingyao. What Wen Xingyao heard was Bai Li talking about the chickens, ducks and geese in the game, but his mind couldn't help but think of his childhood in reality. He remembered that Bai Li had said that his childhood was "cute". Maybe he would adopt him and bring him home. Maybe he also wanted to...
No, no, no! Wen Xingyao shook his head wildly. Bai Li also said that he would help him with work when he was young. As long as he worked harder in his childhood and helped Bai Li with more work, he should be able to live safely, right?
Thinking of this, he slowly calmed down and began to recall his actions again. He couldn't help but wonder if his mind was affected by his childhood. Under normal circumstances, he should be a calm and self-sustaining interstellar admiral.
You can't just let yourself go in the game, right?
"Hmm? Yaoxing, why are you shaking your head?" Bai Li stopped and looked at Wen Xingyao curiously. He realized belatedly that there seemed to be something strange about the other party today, he talked a lot and was very curious.
“No, it’s okay…” Wen Xingyao was so guilty that he was about to break out in a cold sweat. He took a deep breath and apologized, “I just thought of something and didn’t listen to you carefully. I’m sorry.”
Bai Li was not angry, so he smiled and shook his head, then continued to move forward with his men.
The discussion about "cute" little animals came to an abrupt end.
Wen Xingyao walked silently beside Bai Li, digesting this news that was 90% credible. However, after the initial "I guessed it was right", a slight embarrassment followed.
At this time, Wen Xingyao separated his human consciousness and childhood into two individuals. In the game, he got along with Bai Li in his human consciousness, and the two became good friends. In reality, his childhood was also sticking to Bai Li, and when he didn't know, he might have done many shameful things.
Wen Xingyao originally planned to find a way to bring it up with Bai Li after confirming his guess, but now, he didn't know how to start the conversation.
Should I say, hello, the little cat beside you is actually me, thank you for taking care of me. Or should I say that my real identity is the admiral of the empire, thank you for lending a helping hand when I was in trouble, and I will definitely reward you handsomely when I am safe...?
Well, how should I put it? If you say this out loud, it's like you're joking with others. Nine out of ten people won't believe it, and the remaining one might even think you're a psycho.
Moreover, Wen Xingyao could not guarantee that if Bai Li knew the truth, they would still be able to get along as naturally as they did now.
The phenomenon of force worship is still quite serious in the empire. As one of the ceilings of the empire's combat power, he would attract enthusiastic cheers and screams every time he appeared in front of the people. If Bai Li would be like this, then he could only slowly distance himself from him.
Wen Xingyao thought about it all the way, and when he was about to reach the old village chief, he finally made a decision, that is, to maintain the status quo first, and when he felt that his body was about to recover, he would find a suitable opportunity to mention it to Bai Li. It was also a reminder to Bai Li that if he turned back into a human form directly in Bai Li's house, he would not scare people.
After figuring it out, Wen Xingyao seemed to have relieved himself of a huge pressure and felt much better. He followed Bai Li and talked with the village chief, and soon received the task of building a "chicken coop" in his yard.
"I have three kinds of materials here, namely straw, bricks and wooden boards. I can give you one for free. You can think about it and decide which one you want." The old village chief said to the two.
The difficulty of building a chicken coop with these three materials increases in sequence. If someone asks about it, he will explain it specifically so that players don't have to force themselves and can just choose the simplest one. After all, he only provides materials, not chicken coop drawings.
But the person standing in front of him now is the person who created him. Even the breeding method was designed by him. How could he be stumped by a mere chicken coop?
As for the other player, the old village chief often saw him going in and out with the creator, so he thought there wouldn't be any problem.
Bai Li and Wen Xingyao had no idea that the NPC was actually muttering about their relationship in his heart. After discussion, they unanimously decided to challenge the highest difficulty, which was to build a chicken coop using wooden boards.
The village chief handed the materials to the two men with a smile and said, "Good luck."
Bai Li took the materials and turned to leave. On the contrary, Wen Xingyao hesitated for a while in front of the village chief before catching up with Bai Li.
"Li Bai, this chicken coop... doesn't the village chief have a blueprint for it?"
His hands-on ability is actually quite good, but he also needs a real object for reference. Without the real object, how can he make a correct chicken coop based on his imagination?
Bai Li still had the same idea as before. Pictures of chicken coops can be found on the Star Internet. Why would a special blueprint be needed? Besides, building a chicken coop is not a technical job. Isn't it something that anyone can do with hands?
But he also considered that the people in the interstellar space were not used to looking up such old information on the interstellar network. After thinking for a while, he raised his hand and nodded his head, saying, "There's no need to trouble the village chief with such a small matter. When you get home, you can watch me do it once, and you should be able to learn to build it yourself. At worst, I can go to your house and help you."
Since Bai Li said so, what else could Wen Xingyao do? He nodded and followed him back.
When the two got home, Song Xinran happened to be online. When she saw Bai Li, she rushed over happily. She first gave Bai Li a big smile, and then politely greeted Wen Xingyao.
"I'm still wondering when you will come up." While handing the prepared live broadcast contract to Song Xinran, Bai Li conveyed to Song Xinran what Mo Song had told him before.
Like Mo Song, Song Xinran quickly signed his name on the contract. Since then, he has become the second anchor of "Your Ran Tian Ju".
As for the other news that Bai Li mentioned… He thought for a moment and replied, “Master, I plan to live stream ‘Learn to Cook from Scratch’ in the game. I don’t know what Crispy Noodles plans to stream. How about I add him as a friend and discuss it first?”
There is still some time until noon, so I think we can make it in time.
Since Song Xinran already had a plan in mind, Bai Li didn't intend to help him with ideas. He patted the child's head and let him contact people himself.
"Then go ahead and let's build a chicken coop first."
After saying this, he took Wen Xingyao to his yard.
Song Xinran was very envious. Old players were different. They could experience new gameplay as soon as they upgraded. But he was only level 2. Even if he wanted to build a chicken coop, he couldn't.
After he confirmed the live broadcast time today, he must work hard on the land in his free time, get a lot of experience, and strive to reach level 5 as soon as possible, and then go to the village chief to accept the task. Song Xinran secretly made up his mind and went to the land west of the village to find Mo Song.
The place where Mo Song lives is actually very easy to recognize. Cloud players who have been following "You Ran Tian Ju" from the beginning know that when 500 players first entered the game, they made mistakes in understanding the tasks and dug two large pits where the small huts should have been placed. After discovering the mistakes, they quickly filled the pits.
The game host "Songcuimianmian", who was the first to enter the game to find faults, had a good relationship with the other group of 300 people, and even left another 197 players to do the task with them. This resulted in Songcuimianmian's final house being sandwiched between the two groups of people.
On one side are 300 small huts arranged neatly and at almost equal intervals, and on the other side are 197 small huts arranged in an orderly manner. Mo Song's small hut happens to be the connecting point between the two sides.
If this kind of thing happened to someone else, they would probably feel that they were being excluded by both sides. However, Mo Song was not an ordinary person. Not only did he not feel lost, but he was very happy and felt that he was the most special person.
Well, if someone wants to find him, they can just identify him with a little help.
Song Xinran successfully connected with Mo Song. They first added each other as friends, and then discussed the content of their respective live broadcasts. After discovering that their live broadcast methods were different, they happily decided to start broadcasting one after another.
Mo Song started the live broadcast at noon, and Song Xinran would do it at dinner time in the evening.
