The space told her: [You can use it at any time after exchanging for the reward. Now that I’m level 20, you can use up to 20 NPCs. You can use them for an hour for every 10,000 points.]
Xiaoxiao understood immediately: [What exactly can they do?]
Xiaoxiao said solemnly, "Because money moves people’s hearts, he doesn’t believe in those people who only have themselves and benefits in their hearts. That elder who planted the new grain seeds doesn’t ask for power or wealth, only for there to be no famine in the world. He knows how I deal with the new grain seeds, so he hopes that I can help him again, his elders, and the people of the world."
She leaned close to Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an’s ears and said mysteriously, "Because this mysterious philanthropist is the person who gave me new grain seeds."
The space was a little embarrassed: [They can only show up, say a few words, and walk around. After all, I’m a gourmet space. I don’t have much offensive power.]
This reason made Xiao Ran’s back go numb, and goosebumps appeared on her arms. She instantly felt impassioned, but she no longer had the confidence to refuse.
Xiaoxiao continued, "I’ll go with Doctor Gongsun. It’s more convenient to collect herbs with him."
Xiao Ran was puzzled. "Why?"
When Xiao Ran’s body temperature subsided and she woke up again, she saw her precious daughter carrying a small bag and saying to her firmly, "Mother, I want to go to the border with Doctor Gongsun."
Apart from being excited, Xiao Ran did not forget to ask rationally, "Why didn’t he look for other officials directly and turn to you, a child who hasn’t reached adulthood yet?"
She sighed and commented, "He’s a good person who knows how to repay kindness." free\we\bnov(e)(l).com
In the past, she was anxious to know if the world behind the door was her previous world. Now, she seemed to care more about the people on the other side of the door.
Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an’s hearts tightened at the same time, feeling lingering fear.
Xiaoxiao nodded. "I haven’t told anyone about this. Mr. Yuan’s seeds were developed by his elders in his family, and there’s a limited number. He knows very well that if others know about the new rice seeds, he will cause huge trouble for his family, but he also wants to do something for Great Xia."
Two years later, half of Great Xia’s territory did not see rain for months. Food and vegetables could not grow. The rivers and lakes dried up and stopped flowing. Under the famine, the people were struggling to survive, but the Imperial Court could not take out food for disaster relief. The corrupt officials could not find a way to solve the problem. The dissatisfaction of the people continued to ferment, and the civil rebellion led to a mutiny. Great Xia fell apart overnight...
It wouldn’t be a dream if it hurt. She took the tea from her husband to moisten her throat and asked Xiaoxiao, "What made you have such thoughts?"
Or perhaps she was not especially obsessed with that door now.
In order to prove that she had the ability to protect herself, Xiaoxiao suggested letting Xiao Ran’s personal guards play hide-and-seek with her at Dayan Mountain.
Gu Chang’an thought for a moment and decided to answer honestly, "It hurts."
After changing the reward, Xiaoxiao placed the NPCs in the space and waited. She was finally satisfied and fell asleep.
However, this did not mean that she was at ease with her daughter going. The mother and daughter looked at each other, and neither of them relented for a moment.
Before Xiao Ran and Gu Chang’an could react, she said, "He said that there are more seeds."
How could he say no to his precious daughter, whom he had finally found?
She looked at Gu Chang’an for help, but the latter looked away guiltily. If he could convince his daughter, would he need his wife to come forward?
Xiaoxiao straightened her expression and said in all seriousness, "It’s like this. This great philanthropist met a bad person and was once poor and homeless in Fortune Village. At that time, I helped him and even gave him money to go home. On the way, he received a lot of help from our Great Xia soldiers, so he wanted to repay their kindness."
However, the person leading the troops that time was not Rong Yan, and the Great Xia Imperial Court did not manage to gather enough food for a 100,000-strong army. Under the insufficient military forces and the sinister attack of Xiongnu, the city at the border was lost. The Second Prince of Xiongnu stepped on Great Xia’s face to claim the throne and used the conditions of emptying Great Xia’s treasury to exchange for the Xiongnu’s retreat.
Xiaoxiao did not care, but she, who was originally only thinking about the spatial door in the hidden reward, suddenly hesitated. At this moment, the space said: [During the use of NPCs, they will become your eyes and can share what they see with you. Moreover, the reward is random. In other words, the brocade pouch might not be able to get NPCs when you reach Level 30.]
Xiaoxiao said, "I wasn’t lucky to have escaped."
Helpless, Xiaoxiao could only take out her trump card. "Dad and Mom know that I was kidnapped by evil people, right?"
This time, she began to dream again. In her dream, the Xiongnu’s schemes were endless and Great Xia’s border was lost.
Xiao Ran blinked and pinched her husband, who had yet to shave his stubble. "Does it hurt?"
Because of this premonition, she planted herbs all over the space farmland. If she didn’t have enough points, she would go to the pharmacy to buy them. She wouldn’t stop until the space farmland was full.
Xiaoxiao said, "Everyone has a responsibility when the country is in trouble. Actually, I met a kind person by chance. He wrote to me and said that he was willing to provide some food and medicinal herbs to the soldiers at the border for free, but I have to take his token and go get it myself."
She had a bad feeling.
Xiao Ran, who was originally a little sleepy, immediately perked up. "There’s more?"
Xiao Ran actually also learned about the many conflicts at the border and was worried. The two things they lacked the most in war were food and medicinal herbs. Although she had not been on the battlefield for a long time, her heart had never left.
Xiao Ran was worried. "Xiaoxiao, you’re still young and don’t understand the dangers of the world. You probably don’t know that there are many sanctimonious swindlers in this world. Have you thought about what if this person is lying to you? What if he has ulterior motives? What if he can’t take out the things he said at all?"
[Exchange Reward Three.]
She sat on the crouch for a while longer and shook her head to try her best to calm down. However, the images in her dream became clear in her mind over and over again, especially when the border was breached, the empty gazes and rotten bodies of the commoners, and the panic that no one dared to approach when the city was in a depression.
Everyone in the family had their own things to do. No one knew what kind of big thing Xiaoxiao had secretly done.
In her dream, Xiaoxiao saw the dry and cracked ground, saw desperate faces, saw starving people everywhere... All she saw was death and sorrow. As she looked, she still couldn’t walk out of the pain when she opened her eyes.
Could any girl reject this restriction? Anyway, Xiaoxiao couldn’t.
Xiaoxiao looked up at the sky and put her hands behind her back in an unfathomable manner. "I can’t say anything else. As for food, he should be able to take it out."
"The range is 3 meters. If the personal guard brothers and uncles can find me, I won’t mention going to the border again. On the other hand, if they can’t find me, Father and Mother will acknowledge my ability to protect myself and agree to let me go to the border."
