Chapter 18 The whole village has transmigrated! ...
Lu Xiaoqi entered her system space and found that the ancient town model in the space seemed much newer than before, a clear difference. This was definitely not her imagination.
System: "The changes to the ancient town in reality will be projected onto the sand table. Please keep up the good work, players!"
She suddenly realized, then looked at her main quest progress bar and noticed it had loosened up a little; the golden bar had reached ten percent. It seemed this major cleanup had been quite effective.
Lu Xiaoqi found the special building blueprints in the warehouse and opened them.
A golden scroll slowly unfurled in mid-air, and amidst the shimmering light, a simple yet exquisite ancient building with upturned eaves appeared before her.
"So beautiful!"
The small hall is very beautiful in design, with flying eaves and blue bricks carved with the moon. Even Lu Xiaoqi, who has seen many historical sites and scenic spots, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration at first glance. One can easily imagine its charm after it is completed.
Before she could think it through, a series of notifications started ringing out again—
"Congratulations, player, you have won a VR experience center."
"Simply click to use it to create a construction curtain, and the construction time limit can be selected by the player."
VR experience center?
VR has become very popular in recent years, and some shopping malls have opened VR experience projects, which Lu Xiaoqi has also tried. However, to be frank, the so-called "immersive" VR promotional slogans are somewhat exaggerated, and it's better to go see an IMAX 3D movie.
However... since it's a product of the system, it shouldn't be that mediocre, right?
As for the construction curtain and construction time limit, perhaps it was a system setting to conceal the truth? Lu Xiaoqi couldn't help but think of a game she had once played depicting a scene in Jiangnan, where the construction process was exactly the same.
This is getting more and more interesting.
She immediately clicked on the user manual at the bottom of the small hall.
[Note 1: This experience center can be used in conjunction with a cultural exhibition museum.]
[Note 2: This feature can only be used after there are forty special NPCs present.]
There was a third explanation below, but Lu Xiaoqi had no interest in reading it; she was only staring intently at the words "forty people".
"I want to protest!" she said, very dissatisfied. "How long am I supposed to keep drawing cards for forty NPCs? By then it'll be too late."
She now smokes twice a month, and at most two people at a time. It would take her almost two years to smoke forty people!
The system was incredibly friendly: "So please keep up the good work and try to complete more gacha missions!"
Lu Xiaoqi said with a heavy heart: "System, you've gone bad. You're becoming completely unresponsive to reason."
System: "Oil and salt are not within my energy range. Players might want to take another look at Explanation 3."
Lu Xiaoqi looked over—
[Note 3: This VR experience center allows you to extract a memory segment from an SSR character for use.]
What's the meaning?
That was all, just a simple sentence, no further explanation. Lu Xiaoqi pondered for a moment, then her eyebrows rose higher and higher, her interest growing stronger.
Does this mean that this VR experience center can generate a memory about Yuwen Kai or Zhao Feiyan as a VR experience for the audience? Perhaps it will contain Daxing City during the reign of Emperor Yang of Sui, or Chang'an at the end of the Han Dynasty? Maybe, you can even see Emperor Yang of Sui himself!
Lu Xiaoqi gasped.
Is that how she understands it? If so, then she's truly an amazing treasure!
She wants to see famous historical scenes!
The system affirmed her: "Indeed, it is as the player understands. Anything produced by the system is guaranteed to be of high quality, ensuring that everyone can experience an authentic ancient scene, no deception."
Lu Xiaoqi clapped her hands excitedly: "Draw! Draw it now!"
She had already completed the weekly tasks twice, and sure enough, the gacha pool showed that she had one chance to draw a card. Originally, Lu Xiaoqi wanted to save up several chances to draw all at once, but now she just wanted to draw as many times as possible as quickly as possible.
Eight identical gray cards floated in mid-air, looking exactly the same with no difference whatsoever. From their appearance, it was impossible to tell whether they were rare or common.
Lu Xiaoqi gritted her teeth and chose the leftmost one, then prayed in her heart: "Please give me another SSR, or even an SR, please."
A flash of light, and she opened her eyes.
The card that was turned over was green, a light green like newly sprouted chives swaying in the spring breeze.
This color... Lu Xiaoqi suddenly had a bad feeling.
The figure and poem on the card gradually appeared: an old man dressed in coarse cloth, bent over working, holding what appeared to be a plane. She had seen carpenters use it when she was a child and recognized it at a glance; it was used to plan wood shavings.
Craftsmen come from all directions, their finished products are sold throughout the world. Officials and dignitaries flock daily, but who remembers the calloused hands of the craftsmen? ①
[The entire Xiangjia Village.]
System: "Congratulations, player, you have drawn an R card, for all the villagers of Xiangjia Village."
It's an R card! Lu Xiaoqi was slightly disappointed, but she quickly realized what she meant and almost jumped up, her voice rising an octave—
"What do you mean? What do you mean by 'the whole of Xiangjia Village'? Explain this to me!"
Her hands were trembling, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
That can't be right!
The notification sounded in my mind again: "You have a new weekly task: Please settle all the villagers of Xiangjia Village as soon as possible. Task reward: 50,000 yuan."
Lu Xiaoqi wanted to cry but had no tears.
So she hadn't misheard; she really had drawn an entire village! Although she really wanted to draw all forty NPCs right away, it certainly wouldn't be like this, where she gets a whole village right off the bat! Aaaaaah...
The system smiled and said, "It's just as the player expected. This card includes all the people in Xiangjia Village, a total of thirty-nine villagers. Congratulations, player, you now have forty-two NPCs, which meets the requirements for using the building card."
"This player truly deserves to be called the chosen one; he's the luckiest of the lucky, with incredible luck!"
Although the system kept showering her with compliments, in that instant, Lu Xiaoqi only wanted to tilt her head back, fall backward, close her eyes, and end it all.
......
At this time, the villagers of Xiangjia Village were fleeing for their lives on a spring night in 1644.
They are facing a catastrophic disaster.
"Run! The Tartars are catching up!"
"Run!"
"Dali, don't worry about me, just run for your life!"
"Hurry up! Head into the mountains!"
In the distance, flames soared into the night sky over the village, a cacophony of cries from children, neighing horses, screams from adults, and the clanging of swords being drawn. Clouds drifted by, obscuring the once-bright moon, which seemed unable to bear witnessing this human tragedy.
It is impossible for a human to outrun a horse.
In an instant, the people of Xiangjia Village were like small animals being toyed with by hunting dogs, driven away by cavalrymen wielding weapons and gathered in a small open space.
"These rats are pretty fast runners." A Tartar general in armor rode out slowly, blood dripping from the sword in his hand. To him, this was just a little game he encountered while passing by; watching these people flee for their lives only to fall into despair gave him immense pleasure.
However, he's getting a bit tired of it now, and he thinks it's best to end this game sooner rather than later.
"Kill them all," he ordered calmly. "They're urging us from above."
