Chapter 677
677 An unforeseen event in the village
zhui feng and the others headed west and quickly reached the colony they saw on the mountain top.
This was a village. As the sun rose in the sky, people gradually came out of the courtyards built with rammed earth and wood to start their morning work.
Wind-chasing Wolf and the others were buried in the farmland, where there were some crops that were more than one meter tall. There were purple fruits hanging from the thick roots, which looked a bit like sweet potatoes. they had already tasted it while they were waiting. it was sweet and sour and could quench thirst. the key was that it contained some strange energy. after eating it, they would slowly recover their energy.
The players were dumbfounded.
Even on wasteland planet, only the Lin Financial group’s pig banquet had the effect of slowly recovering health points. But on planet slywin, the purple sweet potatoes in ordinary farmland could actually restore energy. It was truly shocking.
However, everyone had come with a big goal in mind, so they only had a superficial taste and did not stuff their bags full.
After all, according to wind-chasing Wolf’s words, we are organized and disciplined!
After surviving the coldest moment before dawn, a layer of white frost had formed on their eyebrows, making them look like hunters in the wilderness.
“Zhui Feng, what should we do now? the people in the village are starting to wake up, what should we do?” Bombarding chicken asked.
Zhui Feng looked down at their clothes and then at the people who were carrying hoes. The contrast was too obvious, they didn’t look like locals.
“The first step of mobilizing the masses is to enter the masses. We’re dressed so well that people will think we’re rich and Noble at first sight. They’ll definitely have a grudge against us, and there’s no way we can blend in with the crowd. So, we have to get a few sets of local clothes, then lie that we escaped from the capital after being persecuted, and let them know the fact that tyrants are brutal and merciless.”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and then there was a rustling sound from the farmland, which was integrated with the sound of the morning breeze blowing the crops. what surprised the players was that these ordinary people were all over level 10. some of the young men were even over level 20. they were completely different from the normal npcs on wasteland planet.
Zhui Feng’s guess was that these people had been eating purple sweet potatoes for a long time, so their physical fitness had been enhanced, so their levels were higher.
However, this shock only lasted for a moment. After all, even if they were level 20, they were only normal NPCs and did not have elite mode, so there was nothing to fear.
Zhui Feng led the group to steal the clothes. In order to create a scene of disaster, they deliberately dirtied the clothes, made them old, and cut open a lot of holes. Then they hid all their weapons and equipment in an abandoned cave outside the village.
After making all the preparations, wind looked at everyone.
“Are you all ready? When you’re ready, we’ll officially enter the village.”
The players from miracle and the bombarding chicken belt nodded in unison. Although they did not know what they were going to face next, this would be their first step.
“By the way, have you covered up our footprints and tracks?” Zhui Feng suddenly asked.
Bombarding chicken made an OK gesture. “Don’t worry. I’ve already gotten the illusionary vine to clean up the place along the way. Even if tyrant’s lackeys discover the landing site, they won’t be able to catch up to us.”
Zhui Feng nodded and let out a sigh of relief. He then muttered to himself, our personnel and our previous actions have been reported to the mechanical fortress. I hope this plan will succeed and win us more experience and rewards!
after zhui feng said this, he waved his hand and led everyone into the village.
it was supposed to be an ordinary day, and the villagers carried their farming equipment to work in the fields according to their habits and time, or went to the small market in the village to buy some daily necessities.
however, wind-chasing wolf and the others ran to the village entrance, staggering and gasping. the villagers working in the farmland saw a group of panicked outsiders and all stuck their heads out of the farmland. the old man who had just rolled up a tobacco leaf at the village entrance had not even taken two sips when he hurriedly stood up and stretched out his hand to stop them.
“Where did you come from? What business do you have in our village?” The old man’s eyes were full of vigilance, and he kept sizing up the few people.
looking at their clothes, they should be from some village, but they were in tatters and looked like they had traveled a long way. all of them were covered in dust and looked very disheveled.
The players had discussed it before and were afraid that their words wouldn’t be consistent, so wind was the one to say it.
“Old man, we escaped from the coast.”
Hearing the word ” escape, ” the people in the farmland all put down their work and looked at the outsiders.
The crowd even felt a few unfriendly gazes landing on them.
“You escaped from the coast. What did you do?” The old man’s eyes were sharp, and he looked at the few people with an especially unfriendly gaze.
Zhui Feng replied smoothly,”AI, old man don’t mention it, the East is very chaotic now.” His Majesty believed the lie of the church’s immortality and began to capture people from all over the world for live sacrifices. The entire village in my village has been caught. Fortunately, we left the village a few sunrise ago to work, so we were lucky enough to escape the disaster. That’s why we ran all the way to the West.”
The old man’s hand trembled. His eyes were as big as copper bells, and he had an incredulous expression.
Zhui Feng looked at the expressions of the villagers. It was clear that he had not heard of this matter and had a plan in his heart.
Wind-chasing Wolf “subconsciously” looked back, his eyes filled with anxiety.
“old man, we brothers still have some strength. We don’t intend to stay here for long, we just want to put in some effort in exchange for a few bites of food. We’ll leave immediately after we’re full and have enough food for the journey. Is that okay with you?” Zhui Feng was practically begging.
this pitiful image, as well as the eyes and small movements that seemed to avoid the devil behind him, had firmly attracted the attention of the villagers in the field. Now these villagers were afraid of wind’s words about capturing people from all over the world as live sacrifices, but they also wanted to know more.
If these people extended their hands to ask for food or money, the old man would think that they were most likely scammers. However, this group of people only said that they would work hard in exchange for some food, and they would leave after they had saved enough food. Coupled with their sorry state, it was hard to believe that this was a scam.
the old man looked back and saw many young and strong men walking out of the field. he asked, ” “What do you all think?”
village chief, you have the final say in the village’s matters. You decide!
This time, it was wind-chasing Wolf and the others “turn to be surprised. They didn’t expect this unkempt old man to be the village chief.
“You’re actually the village chief, my apologies. i think it’s a busy farming season now, so we can do some hard work in exchange for a few mouthfuls of food. you don’t have to worry about our accommodation, we can just find a shady place under a tree to sleep. If the village head feels that it’s not convenient, we hope that you can point us to a nearby village and we’ll go over to ask.” Zhui Feng’s words were appropriate. It sounded like he was from the village on the East Coast. His level was much higher than that of the mountain.
the old village head muttered,”such genteel words, you really have the meaning of an easterner’s …”
“Alright then, since you’ve said so, then you can settle down first. It just so happens that there’s a little less labor in the village recently, so you can help. I’ll be blunt, the food will be calculated according to your workload. I won’t let you sleep under the tree if you become laborers. I’ll arrange an empty yard.”
The players ‘eyes lit up, feeling that things were going too smoothly. As expected of the first player to follow link.
The wind-chasing softness, yyds!
” that’s good. i’ll take you to the courtyard now. you can rest and wash up for a while. i’ll come and help you later. ”
Zhui Feng’s excitement was clearly expressed as he quickly said,”No need, we can work now!”
The old man insisted on letting the strong men arrange for them to rest in the courtyard. This enthusiasm made Zhui Feng and the others embarrassed.
everyone came to the courtyard. under zhui feng’s arrangement, they began to clean this dilapidated courtyard.
But while cleaning, a Crow flew away after circling above Bomb chicken’s head. Bomb Chicken pulled wind and said, ” “Not good, the people in the village are talking about us.”
