There is no doubt that this village is very poor. Every house is a wooden house with a thatched roof. There is not a single house that is even slightly beautiful. Every house is dilapidated, and the windows are paper-pasted, which can't block the cold wind at all.
Because the men were all out, the women and children carefully hid in the house, with only a few pairs of vigilant eyes showing through the slightly opened door. Although there was curiosity in their eyes when they looked at Xiao Tangqiu and his group, there was more hostility and vigilance.
A slightly bold little girl opened the door and bravely stood at the door to look at Xiao Tangqiu who was passing by. She was dressed very simply, her clothes were dirty, and her black eyes were full of curiosity.
Xiao Tangqiu saw the situation inside the house through the open door. There was no furniture in the room, not even a wooden bed. There was only a straw mat on the floor, and on the mat was a worn quilt.
A woman was flying towards the door, screaming and pulling the little girl, "Come back here!"
Soon, the door was slammed shut.
Xiao Tangqiu withdrew his gaze and shook his head.
After a while, the guide stopped and a thatched-roof wooden house appeared in front of them. This wooden house was also shabby and old, and it was not a comfortable temporary stay. However, after visiting half of the village, they had already discovered that all the wooden houses in the village were like this. Even if they asked to change a house, it would probably be the same.
The man did not enter the house, but just stared at Xiao Tangqiu and others.
Xiao Tangqiu thanked them and went into the house with the others, but the people who led the way did not leave. They still stood at the door and stared at the people inside.
Xiao Tangqiu frowned and quickly closed the door, but the uneasy feeling still lingered. Duan Hongzhen also folded his arms and stared at the door. After a moment, he said, "Those people are gone."
Xiao Tangqiu finally breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to look at their accommodation for the night. This was certainly not a good place to stay, and it was not even as good as the wooden house they had lived in before. That wooden house at least had a bed, but this wooden house had nothing, not even a candle, and even the paper used to paste the windows was gone.
But it makes sense. This village is so poor and this house is uninhabited. Even if there were some furniture like beds, they would have been moved away. Not to mention candles and other things. I'm afraid even the paper covering the windows has been taken away.
"It's so dirty and broken, how can anyone sleep in it!" Duan Hongzhen said with disgust.
Xue Junli said calmly: "You can sleep outside and keep watch for us at the same time."
"Why keep watch all night? The villagers in this village are all ordinary people. I can crush them to death with just a flick of my finger." Duan Hongzhen said disapprovingly.
Xue Junli said calmly: "Don't take it lightly, I think they are not simple."
Tang Mianmian pulled Xiao Tangqiu aside and asked, "Qiuqiu! You were so cool just now! You actually thought of exchanging it for rice! So clever!"
Xiao Tangqiu smiled and said nothing. In fact, this was not a difficult idea to come up with. This village was so poor that no one could eat. There must be a great demand for food. Other players should have been able to think of it, but ordinary players probably wouldn't carry food with them like they did. In the dungeon, staying alive was the most important thing. As long as they didn't starve to death, who had the time to cook?
Duan Hongzhen's eyes suddenly turned: "When they saw the rice just now, their eyes turned green. Do you think they will come to steal our food in the middle of the night?"
Xue Junli's eyes darkened: "It's possible."
Yu Fuling frowned: "I always feel that those villagers are a little strange..."
Celluloid snorted, "It would be strange if the villagers weren't surprised by such a spooky village!"
Duan Hongzhen yawned. "Who cares? I just want to get some sleep now! I fought zombies all night long yesterday and I almost died!"
Xiao Tangqiu asked, "Then aren't we going to investigate the village?"
Xue Junli pushed his glasses and said, "Of course we need to investigate the village, but we also need to get some sleep. Although the potion can eliminate our fatigue, our bodies still need real rest, otherwise problems will still arise."
"Next, we can split into two groups. One group will survey the village in the first half of the night and rest in the second half, while the other group will rest in the first half of the night and survey in the second half."
The seven of them were to split into two groups. Xiao Tangqiu originally wanted to be in the same group with Tang Mianmian, but Duan Hongzhen sneered and dissuaded him: "You two weaklings will only drag each other down if you're grouped together! Forget it, a burden like this is enough for one person per group. Even if you two were in the same group with the boss, the boss wouldn't be able to take care of both of you at the same time."
As a burden that held the team back, Xiao Tangqiu and Tang Mianmian both lowered their heads at the same time, their expressions full of shame. In the dungeon world, being bad is the original sin. They are two rookies who can't even lead a great god like Shen Yuan, so why should they entangle with each other and drag each other down?
...Never mind, I missed it after all!
So in the end it became Xue Junli, Yu Fuling, Xilulu, and Tang Mianmian in one group, and Shen Yuan, Duan Hongzhen, and Xiao Tangqiu in another group, with the two burdens being divided equally.
Xue Junli's group went out to investigate the village first, while Xiao Tangqiu's group got the chance to rest in the first half of the night. Although there was no bed in the house, fortunately their space props had everything, so they each took out a sleeping bag and got in to sleep.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Tangqiu was suddenly woken up by the cold. He opened his eyes and saw that the thatched roof was not tight and the wind was leaking and making a whistling sound. He curled up his body and fell asleep. As expected, it rained again in the middle of the night.
Xiao Tangqiu was woken up by the cold again. He looked up shivering, only to find that he was the only one sleeping under the leaking roof, while everyone else was safe and sound - only his sleeping bag was wet.
...African ancestry can be fully reflected in every detail!
Xiao Tangqiu rubbed his frozen face expressionlessly. At this moment, there was a soft knock on the door.
——Boom, boom, boom.
The knock on the door was soft and gentle, like rain beating against the door.
