Humph, what evil rich people are!
Bai Li gritted his teeth and opened his first-charge gift package. A familiar light flashed, but the props that came out were slightly different from Wen Xingyao's.
At the same time, both of them saw a line of golden text appear in the lower left corner of their vision:
[Congratulations to player "Li Bai" for getting the precious item: Golden Hoe (Permanent) through the first recharge gift pack! ]
When this line of text appeared, not only Wen Xingyao, but even Bai Li himself was stunned.
Bai Li couldn't help but doubt his memory. If he remembered correctly, the chance of getting a precious permanent item in the first-charge gift package was set to 1%, which means that only one person out of a hundred could get such a golden hoe. But now, only he and Wen Xingyao had used up this chance?
This is 1%, not 50%!
If the other party knew that he was the producer of this game at this time, would he be suspected of operating behind the scenes?
Bai Li blinked innocently and took out the golden hoe under Wen Xingyao's curious gaze.
This was a delicate little hoe that was only as long as an adult's forearm. Because it was made entirely of gold, it shone with a rich luster in the sun. Bai Li took it in his hand and played with it for a while. He felt that it felt good and should be very useful when weeding later.
At this moment, he heard Wen Xingyao on the opposite side say "Hmm?" faintly, so he looked in the direction where the voice came from.
It was easy to tell from Wen Xingyao's appearance that he was operating something. He glanced at the small golden hoe several times, and his whole body showed his desire for the precious props.
"Can you...sell this hoe to me?"
"Oh, this is still bound." Bai Li read out softly after seeing a line of small words on the item description. He also forgot whether he had set it like this, but there was no harm in directly binding precious items.
The unspoken words were cut off on the spot, and Wen Xingyao almost choked. Okay, then it's okay again.
"Hmm? What did you say, can or can't you?"
"It's nothing. I just didn't expect that this big gift package can only be bought once." Wen Xingyao said dejectedly.
Bai Li not only did not comfort him, he even wanted to say something. He smiled and explained: "It's called a 'first-time gift package', how can it be possible for people to buy it unlimited times?"
This is the truth, but Wen Xingyao was still unwilling to give up. He turned the game mall upside down but couldn't find a second item that he could buy with money.
The creator of this game is just too lazy!
Bai Li observed Wen Xingyao's reaction, and his hatred of the rich was reduced a lot. He planned to improve the products in the mall after logging off. The game had just started, and he had to satisfy the players' ideas as much as possible.
But now, it's time for them to complete the novice mission.
The two men chose two patches of weeds not far from the stream and started working.
At the beginning, Wen Xingyao didn’t know how to “weed”, and when he saw the weeds that were half a person’s height, he almost pulled them out directly.
But when he grabbed a few blades of grass, he suddenly remembered something and looked in the direction of Bai Li. With just one glance, he quickly withdrew his hand as if he was burned by something, and then secretly took out the ordinary hoe from his game backpack. Following the action of Bai Li that he had hurriedly seen before, he bent down and smashed the sharp hoe blade into the ground.
It fell right at the root of the weeds.
Wen Xingyao's eyes lit up, and he was surrounded by inexplicable joy. He cheered secretly: Perfect!
He was not a stupid person, and he quickly figured out the correct way to weed. He lifted the hoe handle slightly upwards, and the huge roots of the weeds were pulled out of the soil.
Wen Xingyao found it difficult to describe how he felt when he saw the huge rhizome emerging from the soil. It was as if the stone pressing on his heart was lifted up by an invisible hand, or as if cool snow water was poured down on the crater of a volcano that was about to erupt.
Originally, he was a little anxious because he didn't get the golden hoe like Bai Li and didn't have the chance to buy an extra gift pack. But during the work just now, this anxiety was quickly replaced by the sense of accomplishment of digging out a weed. His heart and eyes were full of that big weed. Looking at the barren grass around him, his blood boiled.
Wen Xingyao realized that while he was in a daze, Bai Li had already advanced nearly five meters on his mission site. He quickly bent down, lowered his head, and started working enthusiastically with a mysterious smile on his face.
One, two, three or four.
Five steps, six steps, seven or eight steps.
After about half an hour, Bai Li finally got rid of the weeds in the field. Knowing that his next task was to build a shelter for himself, he relaxed, straightened his body and pounded his slightly sore lower back.
Just then, he saw Wen Xingyao not far away slowly stop.
His actions or reactions were somewhat strange, which made Bai Li unable to help but stop and watch.
At first, Wen Xingyao vigorously swung the hoe in his hand, and threw the weeds he dug out behind him without looking back. But when he reached a certain position, his whole body suddenly stiffened for a moment, and then he raised his head in disbelief, with a look of shock on his face, as if he had just woken up from a dream. That kind of lost expression, as if he had lost the whole world.
Bai Li, who has experienced this, said that it was just a reminder for him to complete the task. Is it that exaggerated?
"Pfft!" Bai Li couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Some people may look cool and aloof on the surface, but are actually quite simple-minded inside?
When Wen Xingyao looked over, he returned to his normal smile and waved at him.
The two went to the NPC village chief to hand in the task. The second task was indeed for them to settle down on the cleared weeds. For this purpose, the old village chief gave each of them a small tent.
However, as people who have already spent 10 star coins, no one paid attention to the tent, but took out the "simple little hut" from the first charge gift package.
Using props, two cylindrical houses with a triangular thatched hat on top appeared in front of the two. Bai Li walked around the house and had no intention of going in for the time being.
"Well, it should be good, much better than the small tent." Bai Li nodded with satisfaction, feeling that he was really generous when planning the contents of the gift package.
Wen Xingyao also nodded, feeling a sense of power. He wanted to go in and take a look, but seeing that Bai Li didn't move, he suppressed the urge for the time being, thinking that there would be another chance later.
However……
"It's getting late. I plan to log off today and come back to play when I'm free tomorrow. What about you? What are your plans?" After admiring the exterior of the hut, Bai Li glanced at the real time and found that more than an hour had passed. Thinking that he still had a lot of things to do, he decided to leave it at that for tonight.
Wen Xingyao was actually reluctant to leave like this. He was not sure if he would have the chance to go online again tomorrow, but if Bai Li left, he would be the only one left here. After what happened just now, he also realized that without Bai Li's demonstration, it would probably take him a longer time to complete the first task. He didn't know what tasks were waiting for him afterwards. Without Bai Li, Wen Xingyao always had a premonition that he would be unable to move forward.
"Then I'll log off first. If there's a chance tomorrow, we can play together again?" Wen Xingyao made the invitation thoughtfully.
Bai Li naturally would not refuse.
Before logging off, Bai Li hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "By the way, if there are new items in the mall, which ones do you hope to see?"
Well, let's do a market survey before we go.
Bai Li's question actually revealed a lot of details, and he almost revealed his identity. However, Wen Xingyao recalled the unpleasant feeling of not being able to buy the product before, so he did not notice the strangeness in Bai Li's words.
He said seriously: "I hope... I hope that the mall can have more gift packs that can give out interesting props, or tools that are more convenient for weeding? Oh, yes, it would be even better if there were props that can cover the face."
The experience of more than an hour before successfully made Wen Xingyao interested in this game. Although it was very different from the holographic game he had in mind, he had to admit that this game gave him an excellent experience. During the entire game, not only did he not lose control of his temper, but he also felt physical and mental pleasure and relaxation while doing the weeding task.
Hey, it’s really strange. It’s obviously mechanical labor, but the more I do it, the more I get addicted to it.
What is the magic of this game?!
Wen Xingyao had reason to suspect that playing this game for a long time would greatly alleviate his gene collapse disorder. And he had to admit that even if he didn't have this disease, he would have liked to play for a while longer.
This brings us to the issue of identity discovery.
As a holographic game, it is impossible for him and Bai Li to be the only two players. There will definitely be more and more people entering the game and developing a strong interest in it like him. His identity... is not suitable for blending in with the crowd. Even though he could fight alongside the people of the entire galaxy in the war with the Zerg five years ago, it is a peaceful era now. It is difficult for him to appear next to ordinary players without causing a sensation.
Imagine being surrounded by a large group of people while weeding. My teeth hurt just thinking about it.
The best way is to hide his face.
At this moment, Wen Xingyao regretted deeply why he had forgotten such an important thing when creating the character. He was not like this before!
Having said that, he made the suggestions sincerely, but in fact he did not think they would be realized soon. He did not take them too seriously after he said them. When Bai Li's figure slowly disappeared, he just felt that there was something strange about the smile Bai Li gave before he left.
After staying in the game for a while, he found that he became bored after Bai Li left, so Wen Xingyao also logged off.
After exiting the game, he was still in good spirits, so he was not in a hurry to go out. He opened the address book and found his adjutant Tang Ying. He gave him an order, asking him to find a group of soldiers whose gene collapse disorder was more serious but not so serious that they had to be sent to "Star Hope". They should enter the holographic game "Leisurely Farmhouse" collectively and stay in it for at least two hours. After coming out, they should report their feelings in the game one by one.
As for the rest, he did not elaborate. As an imperial admiral, he was already accustomed to giving orders directly. Of course, there was no need to explain in detail. If there were any questions, he would know after experiencing it himself.
After sending the message, Wen Xingyao logged onto the Star Network again and searched for other information about the game "You Ran Tian Ju". However, just when he saw that the game's creator was named "Bai Li", his eyes suddenly went dark and his consciousness fell into a deep sleep again.
Bai Li... Li Bai...?
What Wen Xingyao didn't know was that at the same time he fell into a deep sleep, the message he sent also received a reply from Tang Ying.
"Admiral, you finally showed up!! Where have you been these days? We can't find you anywhere?"
Unfortunately, the news fell on deaf ears.
