Chapter 216 Jinjiang Exclusive Release
"Pa——!" Someone couldn't help but slap himself.
Others pinched their thighs hard, their expressions dazed, "Is this a dream?"
They had heard about the uses of tillers and plant protection machines, but they didn't expect them to be so magical!
How can it move and fly on its own even though there's no one pushing it or controlling it with a rope?!
After the initial shock, the victims were furious.
Some were excited, some were shocked, and some elderly and conservative village elders who had just come to watch were so frightened that they looked like they were out of breath.
Some even shouted, "Witchcraft, this is witchcraft!"
"This kind of thing will definitely bring disaster. It is a disaster and must be destroyed immediately!"
After Yu Niangzi, Hua San and others came to their senses and heard similar statements, they rolled their eyes and didn't take it seriously.
Hua San grumbled to Lu Xuan in a low voice, "Those are clan leaders from surrounding villages. They're used to being the boss and having the final say in the clan. They're always ready to punish those they don't like. They're really annoying."
"Yesterday, those small forces that you made deals with took your medicine back with them. I heard that many old men in the village said it was poison and a dangerous medicine, and they would rather die than let the sick people in the village use it."
Lady Yu scoffed, curling her hair between her delicate jade fingers as she chuckled softly, her voice icy, "If you ask me, just let them die. Aren't there enough people dying these days?"
Hoverboards, space rings, bio-suits—which one isn't incredibly useful? Those clan leaders and elders had many questions.
But those who are sick or even dying don’t care about whether it is a monster or not.
Feng County has long been out of medicine, but any attempt will be made to save lives. If anyone dares to obstruct, the desperate relatives will fight them to the death.
In the past, villagers might have been forced to do what their clans wanted and had no way of resisting, but the world has changed.
If the clan cannot accommodate us, these big forces will welcome everyone. If you can't stay here, I'll find another place to stay.
Yu Niangzi's gaze shifted from the tiller that had almost turned over an acre of land to Lu Xuan, her eyes warm and joyful.
Not only did he bring them a large amount of supplies, but he also indirectly gave them the opportunity to expand their power. He is truly a living Bodhisattva.
"Where did Boss Lu get all these treasures? I'm so envious."
As she spoke, Yubai's fingers gently stroked Lu Xuan's shoulders, and she said softly, "Speaking of which, is Boss Lu married? If not, what do you think of me?"
Lu Xuan: “…”
Live broadcast audience: !!! Oh my!
After Su Ying, they actually met someone else who dared to set his sights on the anchor!
[Although... the face the host is wearing right now isn't his own.]
[Can't you see that Lady Yu wasn't after the host's face, but rather the benefits he could bring?]
[I don't know exactly how old Lady Yu is, but she looks like she's in her early twenties. If the host really sleeps with her, she won't suffer any loss.]
[Hehe, I think Lady Yu thinks the same thing. If she can get some more supplies from the host after a good night's sleep, that would be perfect.]
[Unfortunately, I chose the wrong person.]
Based on their understanding of the anchor, she is not someone who would be seduced by beauty.
As expected, Lu Xuan moved aside to avoid Lady Yu's fingers and said coldly, "It has nothing to do with me."
Madam Yu still didn't give up. "It's irrelevant now, but it doesn't mean it won't be relevant in the future. We can have more in-depth exchanges..." When she mentioned "in-depth exchanges" in an ambiguous tone, anyone who understood human affairs would understand what she meant.
Hua San couldn't bear to listen any longer. "That's enough. It's not enough to have hooked up with Brother Chou and Boss Du, now you're targeting Boss Lu?"
Qiu Qi and Du Chenghai, who were named, had one expression frozen, and the other coughed awkwardly.
[Wow! She's actually having an affair with two powerful leaders!]
[The key is that both sides knew that Lady Yu was two-timing, yet she didn't cause any chaos. Lady Yu is amazing!]
[Emmm...Looking at Qiu Qi and Du Chenghai's ages, they must be married. Their child might already be a teenager. Isn't that a bad idea?]
Lady Yu glanced at Hua San and said, "It's my will when a man and a woman love each other. Brother Qiu and Brother Hai have met the wrong people. What's your business if I comfort them?"
Hua San rolled his eyes and said nothing more.
However, when the audience heard this, they guessed that Qiu Qi and Du Chenghai's wives might have run away with someone or something else happened. In short, there was probably no wife at home, and the slight worry in their hearts disappeared.
As for some male chauvinists who look down on Yu Niangzi's ability to attract men and even be fickle and speak nonsense in the barrage, there will naturally be others who dislike it and fight back, so there is no need for Lu Xuan to interfere.
With Hua San interrupting, Yu Niangzi also realized that Lu Xuan was not a person who liked beautiful women, so she didn't bother with him too much and continued to pay attention to the progress in the greenhouse with others.
After the plant protection machine finished spraying herbicides on the plowed land, several other plant protection machines filled with water and seeds also took off one after another.
The old farmer who was left behind specially quickly followed and covered the soil happily.
Yesterday, Lu Xuan had shown the appearance of the mutated plants to people from the five major forces, and they didn't care about their strange appearance at all.
They care more about harvesting quickly enough and producing amazing yields.
After this batch of grain matures in more than a month, they will be able to spend it more freely.
It would take several days to build the greenhouse, and as the leaders, it was naturally impossible for them to supervise everything from the beginning. After personally operating the tiller and plant protection machine to satisfy their curiosity, they handed over the subsequent matters to their subordinates and went back to catch up on their sleep.
Originally they wanted to assign his men to accompany Lu Xuan, but the latter refused.
Half an hour later.
The leaders of the five major forces have all returned to their own territories. The greenhouses outside the city are still under construction in full swing. Lu Xuan is strolling alone on the busier streets in the city.
Although Yu Niangzi and the others seemed to have played games all night yesterday and were not doing anything else, when they actually arrived at the commercial street, they saw that the supplies provided by Lu Xuan were already on sale in various shops.
Nutrients, salt and sugar, which are essential for disaster victims, are sold in several shops along the street. Commonly used household medicines such as fever reducers and trauma sprays are also displayed in the clinic.
The prices vary, and the difference is not too big, but it is obvious that the victims who go there to buy things have regular shops they patronize, and they will not buy cheaper things just because another one is relatively cheaper.
Lu Xuan guessed that these disaster victims were going to the shops under the name of their own faction. Wouldn't going to other shops be like eating from the inside? So they definitely couldn't go.
However, regardless of whether they went to a shop belonging to their own faction or not, the number of people was quite astonishing.
Many people heard the news that a foreigner with a lot of supplies came to the city, and everyone was curious about what good things their boss had traded.
There is no need to explain much about salt and sugar, especially the former, which you don't need as long as you are alive.
The latter, influenced by the majority of people in the city who live for the moment, are also willing to buy something to enjoy themselves.
Even the shops selling more expensive items like bio-suits, hoverboards, and dried seafood were packed with people, and many people could be seen exclaiming in amazement while generously taking out supplies.
Lu Xuan discovered that although the death rate of the victims here due to disasters and man-made disasters was higher than that of Yangshan and Luochuan, they were much richer than those in the other two settlements. Many people took out large pieces of dried meat.
Lu Xuan listened carefully to the conversations of the people around him and roughly understood the management model of the five major forces, including other small forces.
Perhaps it is because no one is good at being an official, or because some people were too power-hungry and wanted to hold everything in their hands, forcing many people to death and being retaliated against. In short, now various forces do not have much exploitation of their dependents.
Accordingly, in addition to ensuring that the dependents' homes and supplies are not taken away by outsiders, the victims need to find ways to obtain their daily food needs on their own.
Go to the wild to pick wild vegetables, mushrooms, and fruits, or hunt and collect firewood. Do whatever you can.
This rule has been implemented in Fengxian since the beginning of winter, which also means that when a herd of beasts attacks, the victims also need to protect themselves.
The advantage is that when you kill a wild beast and get the prey, you have to hand over one tenth of it to your faction, and the rest belongs to you.
As long as you can survive, you will never lack meat.
Biological clothes, hoverboards and other things were not released in large quantities by Lady Yu and others. Not to mention those who were reluctant to spend a lot of money because they were worried about the supplies, anyone who was willing to spend the supplies had to rely on snatching to buy them, otherwise they would not be able to buy them.
Once I successfully bought it, I put on the clothes on the spot and started playing with the hoverboard according to the clerk's instructions. I didn't care even though the movements on it were quite funny.
If someone has good balance and learns it quickly, he or she will have to fly back and forth on the street several times to show off.
In the time it took Lu Xuan to walk across the entire street, seven or eight people riding hoverboards appeared in the air.
The five major forces in the portable space were not released, but Lu Xuan saw that the holographic helmet was for sale.
Likewise, as long as you’ve experienced the wonder of being able to enter another world and have the supplies to sell your helmet, there’s no reason to miss it.
So, within just one day, the number of players in the holographic game began to increase significantly, with thousands of players added within a single day. Even the dumbest villagers in Yunlu Village could tell something was wrong.
"Ah Xuan, why are there suddenly so many strangers in the holographic world?"
On the communication screen, Zhang Chengming, Xiong Mao, Li Tuo and others gathered together, all looking a little surprised.
Behind them, you can see the village chief, Wu Cheng and other elders are also present.
Li Tuo said with surprise, "I met several new players this morning. I thought they were from the Huo family army who got tired of the original game and switched over. After chatting about village affairs for a while, I noticed that their expressions were not right. When I asked where they were from, they actually said Fengxian County. I was so scared that I logged off immediately."
When he talked about the latter part, he was obviously still a little scared.
The realism of the holographic world is so high that it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood. The victims of the Huo family army are all familiar with each other and know each other's details, so it's not a big deal. But suddenly a group of strangers appeared out of nowhere, which was so scary.
Wu Yang had a guess, "Did you sell the holographic helmet to the other victims when you were trading with them?"
Lu Xuan nodded, "We sold several thousand pieces. In the next period of time, there should be a lot of Fengxian disaster victims appearing in various games."
Lu Xuan briefly explained to them some of the situations in Feng County.
The person on the other end of the communication screen was shocked.
Zhang Chengming was shocked. "A county with only 30,000 people actually has dozens of factions, big and small? This sounds too chaotic."
The others nodded.
Back then, there were already a lot of troubles in Yangshan County with only four major forces, and dozens of forces... I couldn't even imagine it.
Older people like Li Tie and Wu Cheng focused more on the extremely high death rate in Fengxian County.
Wu Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "The disaster victims in Feng County are probably quite cunning. It's best not to reveal our secrets when you encounter them in the game."
Anyone who can survive in such a difficult place is not simple, so don't reveal too much information and get into trouble.
Lu Xuan said, "The disaster victims in Feng County are indeed quite diverse. I've mainly interacted with the leaders of the five major factions. I don't know much about the people below them, and I don't have that much time. You can communicate with the new players, but there's no need to reveal your background in too much detail, or even the true situation."
Lu Xuan reminded: "The holographic world is a virtual world. Names are fake, faces are fake, and backgrounds can naturally be faked. You can create a brand new persona for yourself. Young people can pretend to be old, old people can pretend to be young, men can become women, and children can become strong men."
Everyone on the other side: “!!!” Is this even possible!?
Although they had indeed given themselves funny or somewhat embarrassing pseudonyms and created new faces, they never thought that they could even falsify their identities and backgrounds.
Lu Xuan's words opened the door to a new world for them.
Li Tuo, who is naturally lively and playful, has eyes that are extremely bright.
Xiong Mao also found it quite interesting, and thought that he could create an identity as a woman, and let his wife be the man, and then... hehe.
Although he was not captured by the communication screen due to his short stature, Zhang Dafu, Li Kangbao and other little kids who were also present looked at each other and excitedly contacted other friends to tell them about this new way of playing.
[Tsk tsk, it feels like the simple villagers are being corrupted by the anchor.]
[They even told them they could dress up as women and men, maybe even some cross-dressing tycoons would show up... Wait, is there anyone pretending to be a woman to cheat for points?]
[Isn't that possible? Online romance is a possibility, especially for those with a criminal record.]
Lu Xuan: You can just call out the names directly.
However, whether it is online dating or cheating points by wearing women's clothing, Lu Xuan is just the person who provides the game tools. What others want to do in it is not within the scope of his after-sales service.
·
The next day when Lu Xuan went out again, it was obvious that many people gathered together and excitedly discussed the topic of holographic games.
It is naturally impossible to fully explore the game world in just one day. Most people are still in the stage of marveling at the 100% realistic holographic world and struggling to figure out how to play each game.
At first, Lu Xuan didn't hear anything new, but among the crowd, a man shouted that he met an old player yesterday who got the holographic helmet earlier than them.
The other party was powerful and helpful. When he was still confused, he helped him familiarize himself with the environment and upgrade his skills.
The big man said proudly, "I have already acknowledged him as my big brother. From now on, my big brother will take me with him to play. I will definitely be able to gain a foothold faster than others. When I make a name for myself in the world, I can also take you with me."
The other people around were envious when they heard this, and some even asked about the name of the big brother the big man recognized in the game. I don’t know whether it was out of curiosity or the desire to curry favor with him.
The big man was probably too careless to consider the possibility of his brother being robbed. He shouted, "Call it 'Starry Bright'."
Lu Xuan, who was about to leave: "..."
Live broadcast audience: ???
[Oh my god, the name Xingchen Brilliant, why do I remember it being Lu Chen's younger brother's?]
[Hahahahaha——his so-called big brother is a seven-year-old, no, eight-year-old little brother?]
[Yesterday, the anchor mentioned that we could establish a character, and Lu Chen immediately put it into action, even taking on a younger brother. He was pretty quick.]
【It's really hard to learn good things, but it's easy to learn bad things.】
[You can't say it's a bad habit, guiding new players is also considered helping others.]
[Speaking of which, Lu Chen is his big brother, so what is the anchor to him? Big brother?]
[Pfft, what the hell, big brother, are you trying to make me die of laughter?]
After the big man reported his name, when he was asked about his elder brother's appearance, he described it in great detail, saying that he was taller and stronger than himself.
Lu Xuan and the audience looked at the big man, who was at least thirty years old, at least 1.9 meters tall, and had an exceptionally strong build.
Even stronger than him, did Lu Chen give himself the appearance of a giant?
Even Lu Xuan couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly.
[I really want to know how interesting the bearded man's expression will be when he finds out Lu Chen's true identity.]
Lu Xuan: Life after the disaster is already difficult enough, so let’s give people some hope.
Not only ordinary disaster victims are excited about the holographic game, but people like Hua Sanyu also use the communicator to contact Lu Xuan to ask about game skills and strategies.
They contacted each other three or five times a day, and it was good enough if they actually mentioned topics related to the disaster and supplies at least once. Even Qiu Qi and Meng Xia, who looked very serious, did not ask any more questions.
There are enough supplies, and Lu Xuan can't make the disaster disappear, so what's there to ask?
However, Lu Xuan was asked too many questions by them, and there was not much to see on the street outside, so he prepared to go back to the safe house to sort out the gold and silver jewelry he had obtained from the previous gathering places.
Halfway through the walk, I encountered a group of people fighting in the street.
These people seemed to be from two small forces. For unknown reasons, they had a conflict that escalated into a big one. Some of them were punching and kicking each other in the street. In a small two-story teahouse on the street, there were constant sounds of tables and chairs being smashed, and people shouting and cursing.
There were a lot of people watching the fight, many of them were making a fuss, and no one was trying to stop it.
Lu Xuan wanted to change his route, but before he could turn around, he heard someone in the crowd shout, "Stop fighting! Stop it! The teahouse looks like it's going to collapse!"
Lu Xuan paused, turned his head and saw that the teahouse was already a little dilapidated after being ravaged by the disaster for more than half a year, and even the walls were cracked and it was about to collapse.
More and more people noticed something was wrong in the teahouse, and instead of watching the excitement, they quickly shouted, "Stop fighting inside! Run away or you'll be crushed to death!"
A rough count showed that there were more than a dozen people in the teahouse. If the teahouse collapsed, few of them would survive.
The people fighting in the street looked towards the teahouse after hearing the noise, their faces changed drastically, and they were about to shout to the people inside who were fighting so hard that they couldn't hear any sound from the outside world, but it was too late.
With a rumbling sound, the teahouse collapsed.
Seeing that the people inside were about to be smashed to pieces, at the critical moment, Lu Xuan raised one arm, palm facing upwards, and all the broken walls, windows and rubble instantly floated in the air, without a single piece falling down.
The crowd who were about to scream seemed to be strangled by the neck and were so shocked that their eyes almost popped out of the windows.
Upon learning that someone was causing trouble, Lady Yu put down her game and came over to take charge of the situation with an annoyed look on her face. Hua San and the others were also stunned.
