A Midnight Escape Story for Farmers

Chapter 229 The Stability Before the End

After a few days, the number of tasks on the bulletin board increased rapidly visible to the naked eye.

Fang Shiqing collected the first wave of crops, Zhao Jun mailed the selected koi to hand in the task, and the factory has been operating steadily. With the joint efforts of everyone, the players are getting closer and closer to the target visible to the naked eye.

On the afternoon of Chunyue 8th, Zeng Xin came to the farm to meet Fang Shiqing, mainly to apologize for the previous copy, and also brought this year's Arbor Day mobilization flyer.

"I'm sorry, Shi Qing." Sitting in the hut, she repeated the words of apology many times, looking dejected, "I brought you a lot of danger in the last book...it's all my fault."

"It's not your fault either," Fang Shiqing had no choice but to coax her, "It's just that you were unlucky and got picked by the boss. Besides, am I not doing well now?"

"That's because..." She looked outside through the open door, her voice lowered.Xiao Fengdi was walking up and down the farm, seemingly busy all the time, but actually paying close attention to the situation here all the time, "Because Brother Xiao saved you. I asked Qingyu, if he slows down a bit, you It may have been…"

"It's all right, neither he nor I blame you. Besides, if you didn't stop me, I would have been strangled to death by the boss a long time ago."

He still remembered that in the closed passageway, Zeng Xin seemed to regain his sanity for a moment and pulled him out of the water.

Had it not been for her momentary sobriety, he might have died then.

Afterwards, Zeng Xin explained the background story of the previous dungeon.Since the BOSS was attached to her body, she also has a vague memory of the water ghost.

"Water Ghost" Anan is the youngest daughter in a mansion in the south of Fengyue Lake. She used to be playmates with Abei, the daughter of a fisherman's family.

Later, she went to other places to study, and got into bad habits in other places - I didn't say it here, but guessing based on the background at the time, Fang Shiqing felt that she might have accidentally smoked opium, and she herself had no job ability, and therefore have a strong dependence on financial supplies at home.

In order to get enough money from her father and brother, she tried her best to please them.Finding that her childhood playmate, Ah Bei, had turned into a beautiful girl, she purposely lured her friend to the lake so that her brother could see her, and then used her power to forcefully marry her.

Ah Bei hated and was angry, and committed suicide on the day of the wedding.Her situation enraged the fishermen, and it became the head of a riot.

When the fishermen with homemade weapons rushed up, the clansmen in the mansion fled in a panic. Anan accidentally fell into the water in the crowded room, and no one came to rescue her.

She was originally good at water, but she didn't know whether it was because of her poor physique or some other coincidence. In the end, she drowned in Fengyue Lake, and—in the resentment passed down from generation to generation by fishermen, she finally became a concrete The water ghost was permanently fixed at the bottom of the cold water.

After listening to it, Fang Shiqing felt a little bit embarrassed.I didn't expect this story to be quite educational - it told everyone that drugs ruin people's lives and they must stay away from them.

After Zeng Xin left, Fang Shiqing put away the flyers for the Arbor Day.You can leave the game in no time, and you don't have time to spend on holiday activities right now.

However, looking at this note, he naturally thought of last year's Arbor Day.

Speaking of which, last year the boss seemed to like to run up the mountains to the east.is there anything over there

Xiao Fengdi came in from the outside: "She's gone?"

"Well," Fang Shiqing said casually, "She's still feeling guilty about what happened in the previous dungeon. Boss, why didn't you come in and chat with us just now?" The other party only greeted Zeng Xin plainly when he first arrived, and then just went out.

"..." Xiao Fengdi said, "If I stay here, you won't be able to chat."

"Isn't it?" Fang Shiqing wondered, the boss usually doesn't like to chat so much, but it's not a communication barrier, sometimes he talks a lot.

"Besides," he added, "I don't want to see her for the time being."

Intellectually, he is of course very clear that Zeng Xin was also a victim in the previous dungeon; but emotionally, it is difficult for him not to vent his anger.

——After all, that BOSS used her body to almost kill his most important person.

"..." The relationship boss really hates her.

Although I felt sorry for Zeng Xin, Fang Shiqing was actually a little happy, because this kind of anger showed that the other party valued him.

Today's work on the farm has already been dealt with. With Xiao Fengdi's help, the work here rarely needs to be delayed until the afternoon.Except for tending those delicate flowers in the conservatory, he was better at other tasks than Fang Shiqing.

After three seasons of development, the entire farm is almost full of land, which looks like a large area of ​​lush greenery.

Fang Shiqing had nothing to do, so he sat down in front of the steps and continued making handicrafts.

After a winter, his craft skill points are almost full, and now he can carve or weave good-quality gadgets, and sell them in stores. Each one is worth a few hundred yuan, and he can earn several thousand in an afternoon. .

Xiao Fengdi sat down next to him.Now they often don't need to say anything or do anything, as long as they stay together, Fang Shiqing feels very satisfied.

The door god statues that Xiao Fengdi had carved before were still on both sides, Fang Shiqing remembered: "By the way, boss, I plan to sell the statues later, will you go with me?"

Items of this type cannot be sold directly on the farm, you have to go to the grocery store.If Xiao Fengdi, who understands the value, is there to help bargain, he should be able to sell for a little more.

"Tomorrow, let's go together tomorrow." Xiao Fengdi suddenly remembered something, took his hand and glanced at the exact time, "I'll take you back to the library first, and then I'm going to go to the mountains."

I was still thinking about this just now, but I didn't expect him to bring it up immediately.Fang Shiqing was startled: "Why are you going there again all of a sudden?"

Throughout the winter, Xiao Fengdi almost never went to the mountains.Winter is actually a season suitable for hunting, but it is dangerous there after all; both of them are now consciously avoiding behaviors that may lead to danger.

"There are some finishing touches that need to be taken care of."

Now that he said so, Fang Shiqing stopped asking.

In the evening, they went back to the library together, and then Xiao Fengdi left alone.

Fang Shiqing was sitting in the corridor, continuing to make handicrafts while waiting for someone to come back. As the sky was getting dark, his worries began to overwhelm him.

Xiao Fengdi didn't come back until after midnight, with the cold air and night dew all over his body.Fang Shiqing hurried over: "Why is it so late? Are you okay?"

"Some circumstances have delayed it," Xiao Fengdi was a little surprised, "Aren't you asleep yet?"

"How can I sleep until you come back?"

Fang Shiqing said honestly, knowing that the other party has gone to a dangerous place, he can still fall asleep casually, what a great experience.

However, Xiao Fengdi was startled when he heard it, and then suddenly hugged him tightly.

Fang Shiqing was a little confused.Is this a customary hug?But there's no need to... be so excited, right?

He raised his hand to pat the other person's back, but his fingertips were stained with a little viscous liquid. When he lifted it up, he found that it was red, and he was shocked: "Are you injured?!"

"It's not my blood." Xiao Fengdi let go of his hand a little, and took off his coat, and he could see a lot of blood splattered on his back, "I encountered a few beasts, and it took some time to deal with them. I'm fine. "

He lowered his head and rubbed against Fang Shiqing's neck, and said softly, "It's late, go to sleep."

Fang Shiqing was still confused until he woke up the next morning.

Xiao Fengdi opened the safe in the lounge and put all the contents on the table.Including the cufflinks that Fang Shiqing had seen before, the silver bullets and notepads taken out of the puppet copy, and a bunch of miscellaneous things that looked like supernatural props.

"This is……?"

"The relics." Xiao Fengdi said, "These are left by the exorcists who died before."

When the player enters the game, there is a chance to bring in the items on his body at that time, such as You Qingyu's "Looking at the War" fan-themed wallet, and the tools on Xiao Fengdi's body at the beginning.

According to the rules of the game discovered before, if the player dies unfortunately, these things will stay here, and there is a probability that other players will take them out together when they leave.

The factions of the Exorcists are complicated, and almost everyone has unique skills that are almost lost, so their personal relics are often of great significance.

For the guide players who are new to the game, collecting the relics of the predecessors is also one of the tasks assigned by the organization. This is what Xiao Fengdi has been busy with all along. To put it bluntly, it is not a big deal.

"It seems that some spirit removers used the mountain to the east as their stronghold before, and I collected quite a lot of relics there. In addition, there are many in the underground labyrinth."

I see.Fang Shiqing was looking at the items on the table when suddenly something was pushed in front of him: the pair of cufflinks.

"...?"

"Put this away for me," Xiao Fengdi said, "There are a lot of things here, and I can't bring them here by myself."

"But isn't this one important?" It should be the only thing left by his father.

"It's just because it's important that I leave it to you." The other party smiled slightly, "Of course you don't have to feel any pressure. Whether you can take this kind of thing out is a matter of luck. I just hope you can keep it for me."

Fang Shiqing's breathing was slightly stagnant, and he felt heavy in his heart, but also had some indescribable sense of happiness.After a while, he carefully put the pair of cufflinks into the inner pocket of his clothes.

"I will definitely keep it safe."

Afterwards, the two sold the statue according to what they agreed yesterday. They spent about an hour negotiating the price and successfully raised the price to 12.

When it was time to sell it, Fang Shiqing was actually a little bit reluctant. After all, the pair of sculptures were chiseled and chiseled by his boss.But it's useless to keep it, and you can't take it away. It's the most cost-effective to sell it.

Noticing his expression, Xiao Fengdi said, "If you like it, I'll make some for you when I get back."

"No, I think it's enough to have your people by my side."

Fang Shiqing didn't like the door god much, but thought it was the fruit of the other party's labor.

The number of tasks completed on the bulletin board continues to rise, and is currently approaching 180 million.

On the 15th of spring, it was the usual meeting time for players.

Fang Shiqing and Xiao Fengdi went out to the square early in the morning. The square in spring was relatively lively in the early morning, with people doing morning exercises, stalls, buying breakfast, and the yelling of NPCs mixed with the sound of steaming cauldrons.

Fang Shiqing was also a little tempted. He stretched his neck and looked at the small stalls beside him, thinking about what he should have for breakfast.

Xiaolongbao, fillet with pancakes, pancakes, hot dry noodles, soy milk fritters... the variety is really complete.

He looked around, his eyes passing over a family of rice rolls lined up, and then he found an acquaintance standing in front of the stall.

——The puppet named Gu Pan silently mixed among the NPCs in line.

"Do you want to eat too?" Xiao Fengdi asked him, "If you want to eat, I will buy it for you."

"how about you?"

"Me too."

"...Well, I want to eat. Then please."

So Xiao Fengdi went to the end of the long line and began to wait in line.Fang Shiqing looked at it for a while, then turned and walked to the bench next to the bulletin board, there was already a person sitting there as expected.

As always, Gu Jinhong was the first one to arrive.
