Chapter 29: The innkeeper dislikes us for being illiterate?
"I can't see clearly."
"I can't see clearly either."
"upgrade?"
"It's not an upgrade," Bai Yu picked up Bai Miao, who was asking the question, and turned around to say, "Xiaoxi, hold on to my clothes. Let's not get lost."
"Okay." Bai Xi immediately pulled Bai Miao's clothes, looked around, trying to see the situation around her clearly, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't see the situation in places a little further away. Everything was covered by thick white fog.
But apart from the thick white fog that made it impossible to see clearly, there were no other problems.
Just as he was thinking, Bai Yu stopped.
Bai Xi looked over and saw the messy wooden board in front of Bai Yu: "What is this?"
"It looks like... a collapsed house," Bai Yu guessed. "Let's walk along the wooden planks to the edge. If it's a collapsed house, there should be something else next to it."
Bai Xi responded and continued to follow Bai Yu's steps. After walking for a while, a corner appeared in front of them. Beyond the corner, there was another mess, making this place look more like a collapsed house.
They didn't know what was happening outside the white fog in the distance, but since this place was originally a house, it was not that dangerous for them to stand here.
"This plane is filled with white fog. We can't get out."
The two planes before were a forest plane and a magic plane. Although the latter made them think it was a grassland at first, at least there was still grass. But now, this plane was all white fog when viewed with the naked eye. All they could see was the traces of collapsed houses in front of them, nothing else.
"I'm not leaving," Bai Yu put Bai Miao down and squatted down himself, "Miao Miao, try using the upgrade card."
Bai Xi squatted beside him and said, "Yes, if we turn this place into a house, can we see everything in the house clearly? Miaomiao, quickly get the upgrade card."
"It's an upgrade." Bai Miao lowered his head and took out his bag.
Bai Yu knew what she was thinking and explained with a smile, "Although there will be fog during the upgrade, the fog all around here is not because of the upgrade. Sometimes there is fog in the distance on our island, but it's not during the upgrade."
"Like this." Bai Miao suddenly realized, took out a blank upgrade card, and placed it on the broken wood in front of him.
[Select Confirm - Broken House, please prepare the following upgrade materials]
The card changed color, and various materials needed to upgrade the dilapidated house appeared.
Maybe it was because the house was too dilapidated, so not many materials were needed for the first upgrade. The materials that appeared on the cards were basically familiar to Bai Yu and Bai Xi.
Out of curiosity about the new plane, they all decided to upgrade the dilapidated house first. After leaving this plane, they went to the forest plane. After using the upgrade card collection function, lines connecting various materials immediately appeared.
Ask for some trees.
When the card was stuck on the tree, the huge tree made a creaking sound.
Soon after, the tree fell to the ground, and its bark and branches began to fall off, peeling off the trunk needed to build the house, which was instantly sucked away by the upgrade card.
Even though it was not their first time collecting tree trunks, they were still amazed when they saw the scene.
Looking at the upgrade card in my hand, I couldn't understand how such a large tree trunk could be stored in this small card.
But since they got the [Sign-in] shell, they have encountered many strange things. An ordinary one-decker boat can become a double-decker boat after being shrouded in white fog for a while, which makes the incident of pulling out the tree trunk not so surprising.
After the trunk is removed, the remaining bark and branches will not be wasted. They can be collected and taken to the island to make fire and cook.
After they finished drawing the trunk of one tree, they started the second one without stopping, and their expressions changed from slightly surprised to calm.
It's normal, everything is normal, the upgraded card can do anything.
"We have enough trees," Bai Yu looked at the full amount on the card, "Next we need soil, which comes in different colors."
"Basically, they're all here in the forest," Bai Xi said, holding a hoe. "Let's go dig."
It is also very simple to collect soil with the upgrade card. Just dig it out and pile it together, then put the upgrade card on it, and it will automatically collect the soil. This step is more difficult than collecting tree trunks, but this upgrade card is needed to build a house. Now they only need to dig soil, which is so easy.
They spent a day collecting all the materials needed for the upgrade on the card, and then took the upgrade card to the new plane.
When they upgraded, they stood two steps away from the house.
In this plane shrouded in white fog, they could hardly see clearly at a distance of two steps, but when the house began to upgrade, they could easily upgrade the differences between the white fog and the surrounding white fog.
It is still white fog, but the upgraded white fog is not just white. Against the backdrop of the surrounding white fog, you can see a golden light in the center of the upgraded white fog. This light is very faint. If there were no contrast this time, they might have ignored it.
However, the upgraded white mist is different from the normal white mist. After all, it is not normal white mist.
"Is it better?" Bai Xi squinted his eyes and looked carefully. "The white mist now seems to have lost its golden glow."
"Go over there and try it."
Bai Yu held Bai Miao in his arms, pulled Bai Xi, and took two steps forward.
Originally, this place collapsed, leaving only traces less than knee-high. But now, all three of them crashed into a real house at the same time, which shows that this upgrade was indeed successful.
The only problem was that the fog was too thick and they had to find the door to the house.
Fortunately, they were right next to the house, so it wasn't difficult to find the gate by just walking around the house.
“Found it!”
Bai Xi exerted force with his hands and pushed the door open.
Bai Yu hugged Bai Miao and walked quickly into the room.
"The fog can't get in?" Bai Xi also stood at the door, looked at the fog outside, then looked into the house where the view was clear. "Really? If such a thick fog could get in, it would definitely fill the house in an instant."
"It's just that the fog is too heavy. We still can't see what's outside." Bai Yu put Bai Miao down and let her walk in the house by herself.
"Oh, yes, I don't know what this plane can do." Bai Xi scratched his head.
Bai Yu also shook his head and turned to look at the situation in the room.
This place has just been upgraded and is still an empty house with a huge living room in the middle. Facing the main door, there are three doors, one on the left, middle, and right.
Of course, when these three doors are opened, there is nothing inside.
"This house looks a bit strange," Bai Xi said as he walked around and looked around. "Does a normal house look like this?"
"It's a bit like an inn," Bai Yu said. "I've only seen what an inn looks like. I don't know what a normal house looks like, but is there anyone in this plane?"
"Maybe not," Bai Xi looked out the open door. "It's so foggy that I can't even see my hand in front of me. If there really were people there, how would they live?"
As the two were talking, Bai Miao, who was not far away, suddenly said, "Sister, sister! The shell is moving!!!"
"Shells?" The two looked over immediately and found that Bai Miao was holding the bag desperately, while shells were running around in the bag.
Before they could do anything, the shell emerged from Bai Miao's bag and hovered above the three of them.
After standing still, the shell spun several times in the air.
After stopping again, three invisible strings extended from the shell and were tied to the three people.
【Landlord binding confirmation】
[Hosts: Bai Miao, Bai Xi, Bai Yu]
The complete shell suddenly shattered and then slowly turned into a board made of shell fragments.
Then, a string of words appeared on the board.
[0325 plane: Inn*1]
[Business hours: 18:00-6:00]
【Rate ratio for guests staying in the hotel is determined】
【Please select guest——*******】
A picture appeared on the board made of shells, with dots of different colors marked on it, some darker and some lighter, and there were also words and numbers marked on it.
The three sisters stood in a row and stared at the picture for a long time.
For a while.
Better for a while.
The picture on the board disappeared and turned into text again.
The confusion in the three people's eyes became even more intense.
After all, they are illiterate.
There were a few small dots on the board whose meanings were unknown.
The shell spoke again.
[Whether to use two blank upgrade cards to build a classroom]
Bai Miao mastered the "yes" technique and immediately replied: "Use!"
【Return trip】
"Return trip."
As soon as Bai Miao finished speaking, the three of them returned to the deck.
Unlike Bai Miao who shouted fearlessly, Bai Yu and Bai Xi were a little confused.
"What's the meaning?"
"That's not right. Miaomiao didn't even press the pass card just now."
"Shell, is the shell still there?"
Just as Bai Miao was about to touch the bag, a shell split into three appeared in front of him and flew into the bodies of the three people. Then, a faint image of a shell appeared in the palm of each person's hand.
"We have it too?"
"shell?"
Along with the shouting, a transparent board appeared in front of the three people. It did not make any sound, but there were many words written on the transparent board, which made the three illiterate people very confused.
Bai Yu and Bai Xi realized it later and responded: "Is this... because they dislike us for not being able to read?"
After guessing this, both of them were a little amused.
"But it would be even better if he could read." Bai Yu looked up and saw the house standing next to the kitchen. "That should be the classroom. Let's go to class."
"I wonder if this classroom teaches about the magical plane. It would be great if it did."
"If we had a teacher to teach us, we wouldn't have to guess the meaning of those words, and maybe it would be easier for us to learn the language there."
None of the three of them objected to the idea of learning, and after getting off the boat together, they walked towards the classroom.
The space in the classroom is not big, but it is more than enough to seat three people.
Just as they were wondering where the teacher was, a picture suddenly appeared on the board in front of the classroom. It was exactly the same words that appeared on the board made of shells in the white fog plane.
This time, along with the written words, there is also a speaking voice, introducing the meaning of these words and the meaning of these words.
Successfully made Bai Yu and Bai Xi understand the main idea.
"We're going to be innkeepers?!"
