"Ding! Please find the culprit for Shanjian Village. Once the task is completed, Shanjian Village will be incorporated into Qiubai Village."
Such a task prompt immediately lifted Fengyun's spirits, and he could pull them into the village without any words.
This is because they have been communicating with their village for long enough, so there is no need to communicate anymore.
This is how he and the fat and wretched guy slowly won over the villagers in his previous life.
"I'll leave this to you."
"Okay, Village Chief, go ahead and get busy."
Looking at the fields full of withered straw, they did not fall over, but were all standing upright.
In other words, it wasn't done by those big beasts.
Fengyun guessed it was some kind of pest, but he didn't see any insects.
Fengyun was completely clueless.
Not to mention him, Village Chief Wu Hua has looked at it so many times and found nothing.
Fengyun is not in a hurry, just wait patiently.
At first, the three of them were very patient and took turns walking in the fields.
But after half a day, Li Kui couldn't stand it anymore.
"My lord, you can't stand it anymore. You're almost dying of the sun."
"You should take a rest first."
Fengyun didn't want to wander around anymore, so he pulled out a piece of straw.
He saw that the straw was completely withered from head to tail, and there was nothing unusual about it.
All the arable land in the village was completely intact.
After having a general understanding, Fengyun was about to find the village chief.
The village chief was probably still worried, so he turned back.
Fengyun immediately said:
"Village chief, how did you do this?"
Wu Hua shook his head and said, "I don't know either. They all became like this overnight."
Fengyun grasped the key point at once.
"You mean they turn yellow at night?"
Wu Hua then nodded hesitantly.
"That should be the case. Let me think...the previous times should have started at night as well."
"Yeah, I see. So the problem is at night."
Wu Hua then said:
"I thought so before, and kept watch at night, but I also found nothing."
This made Fengyun's heart suddenly calm down.
I thought I had found the key, but I didn't expect that others had already done it.
He asked desperately, "Is there nothing at night?"
"No, nothing was found."
Fengyun doesn't believe in evil. Just because he can't find it doesn't mean he can't find it.
If you don’t find it during the day, you’ll have to wait until night.
The wait is finally unbearable.
The three of them had nothing to do, so Li Kui and Liu Jun hunted a wild boar nearby.
Then we gutted it and grilled it.
There was plenty of firewood nearby, so the two of them just collected some.
Fengyun was afraid that the mountain would be set on fire, so he asked them to be careful.
The two of them had a lot of fun for the next half day, and Fengyun also enjoyed some delicious food, but there was no sign of progress in the mission.
After waiting for a long time until dark, Fengyun still wanted to discover something directly by hiding.
The moonlight was high overhead, but there was no movement in the fields.
"Snoring~Snoring~"
It was so boring that Li Kui, who had eaten and drunk his fill, felt so sleepy that he soon fell asleep.
"Junior brother, did you find anything?"
Liu Jun knew Feng Yun's ability, but Feng Yun shook his head and said:
"No."
"Yes, I don't know if you've noticed, but not only can the crops not survive in these fields, but even the weeds are completely withered."
Fengyun carefully recalled the scene in the fields during the day, and it seemed to be true.
The fields were dead silent, with no sign of life at all.
Could it be that he was poisoned by the herb Baiku?
Fengyun had only heard of this kind of miracle medicine in the era when pesticides were rampant, but it was possible that such a medicine could exist in the game.
The price of medicine that may kill green plants is quite high, so it makes no sense to use it here.
Fengyun directly rejected this situation.
No one would do such a losing business, let alone such an unknown little village would have any grudges with anyone.
"What do you think is going on?"
Fengyun couldn't figure it out himself, so he asked the other party.
Liu Jun was not sure, but he had his own ideas.
"Do you think this place is a cursed place? No living thing can survive here?"
Fengyun does not agree with this statement.
"I don't think so. Even though there are no plants in the fields, there are still insects. Besides, we are all here now, and there is nothing to worry about."
The three of them sat peacefully on the edge of the field, without feeling any signs of life being lost.
"Will it just be for plants?"
Fengyun suddenly thought of a possibility at this time.
"Do you think there might be a treasure buried underground?"
When Fengyun proposed this idea, Liu Jun's eyes immediately lit up.
"That's very possible, but with such a large area, where would the treasure be? We can't dig it all up!"
"How about asking the village chief tomorrow?"
"Yes, ask him first."
After the two reached an agreement, they fell asleep peacefully.
There is a great possibility that treasures will be found underground.
…
As soon as the sky brightened, Village Chief Wu Hua hurried over and asked:
"Did you find anything yesterday?"
Fengyun was not sleeping like the other two. He had been practicing all night.
He actually hadn't given up hope yet and was wondering if anything would change, but at least he didn't feel any changes in himself.
"No, but we suspect there's something underground that's affecting the crops."
Fengyun did not tell them about the treasure because he was afraid that if the village chief knew that there were good things underground, he would probably drive them away.
The village chief was also thinking about what had happened in the past few days. He thought for a while and shook his head.
"There's nothing underground."
Fengyun continued to ask:
"When will the crops wither after they are planted?"
"Every time I planted it, it would completely wither and turn yellow the next day."
"The next day."
After hearing this answer, Fengyun felt more and more that this was possible.
Then he said:
"Then can you plant it again?"
The village chiefs were a little hesitant. It had already been ten times, and they didn't want to waste money and time anymore.
Fengyun saw the reluctance in the man's expression, so he had no choice but to say:
"Village Chief, the money spent during this period will be mine, you just need to plant it again."
With Fengyun's assurance, the village chief reluctantly said:
"Originally I didn't want to plant anymore. But since you said so, let's plant again. Your villagers will come to sell crops later, and I'll go get some. As for the wages, forget it. There are no more farmlands in the village, and many people have nothing to do, so let them do it."
"good."
Qiubai Village arrived on time, and Fengyun asked them to deliver the crops with just one word.
After another day of planting, the villagers planted crops on all the arable land again.
Seeing the green crops in the fields, Fengyun stared at them closely, expecting something strange to happen.
