The three of them started their return journey.
Yang Xu dragged the carcass of the horned sheep in front of him. The horned sheep was as big as a calf. Yang Xu, a young boy, was obviously not strong enough, even though he had made a simple dragging tool out of tree rattan.
Still dragging is very difficult.
Yang Xi was helping to drag him along. She was so thin and small that she didn't have much strength, so her little face was covered in sweat.
Both brothers and sisters were in high spirits.
As long as this horned sheep is dragged back to the village, it will be enough for the two of them... no, enough for the three of them to eat for ten days and a half.
This is the largest prey that Yang Xu has caught in these years.
After all, they are still underage children and grew up in the village. The two brothers and sisters are relatively simple-minded and have no idea of secretly killing Xiao Zhi, a 'sick man', and eating alone.
On the return trip, the speed was obviously much slower due to the "drag" of the prey.
Xiao Zhi, who was carrying a bone awl and a wooden shield on his back, was still shaky in the beginning, and had to take a few weak breaths after walking a few steps.
But as time passed, his condition became better and better.
He gradually stopped breathing and stopped swaying when he walked.
After noticing this change in Xiao Zhi, Yang Xu turned around and looked at Xiao Zhi in surprise: "How come you recovered so quickly?"
Xiao Zhi was startled.
Was it fast? Why didn't he think it was just a bump? After more than half an hour, he slowly recovered. Is this called fast? This kind of recovery speed is simply outrageously slow.
good.
If you were hit, you would have to rest for a few days to recover, as Yang Xu said, and then the game would really be unplayable.
This is the difference in thinking between players and NPCs.
For NPCs, this is their world, the place where they live from birth to death.
But for players, no matter how real it is, it is just a game.
About another quarter of an hour passed, and Xiao Zhi's character had completely recovered.
Xiao Zhi controlled the character and stepped forward to help, helping Yang Xu drag the prey together, replacing the thin, sweaty Yang Xi.
Yang Xi is a very sensible girl. When Xiao Zhi replaced her, she took the initiative to take the bone awl and wooden shield from Xiao Zhi and carried it on her body to reduce Xiao Zhi's burden.
The speed of the return trip suddenly increased a lot.
Even so, near noon, the three of them returned to Heping Village with their prey.
Immediately, villagers and some players gathered around curiously. Some were curious and some were envious.
"Xu Wa, this horned sheep is so big. It must weigh 200 kilograms. Did you hunt it?" a villager asked.
"Of course." Yang Xu raised his head with a proud expression. At this age, he has the strongest self-esteem and is the most competitive.
"Xu Wa, you and your sister can't finish eating such a big horned sheep at once. It would be a pity if it spoils." A village woman said.
"I can dry it and make it into dried meat." Yang Xi said.
Although she is still young, she is very capable. Drying dried meat is a very simple thing for her.
"Xu Wa, my family hasn't eaten meat for a long time. How about this? I'll trade 5 jins of grain for 1 jin of mutton. What do you think?" a villager suggested.
"I want to change too. Our family hasn't eaten meat for a long time." Another villager also said.
Yang Xu showed a rather moved expression. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at his sister, and then looked at Xiao Zhi, wanting to ask for their opinions.
Yang Xi nodded slightly, indicating that he had no objection.
Xiao Zhi thought for a while, also controlled his role, and nodded lightly.
All he needs is food. As for whether the food is meat or vegetarian, it doesn't matter to him, as long as it can satisfy him.
As for the taste? What taste can he taste through the screen?
In this way, as soon as this horned sheep was carried into the village, most of its meat was exchanged for grain.
With this harvest, Xiao Zhi's food problem in a short period of time was finally solved.
He no longer has to rely on that big pot of rice at night to barely sustain his life.
Finally I can practice properly.
In the following time, Xiao Zhi turned on the crazy 'training' mode, controlled the character to perform strength training, and tapped the screen with his finger every few seconds.
Every time you click for more than an hour, the character can get a 1 point increase in strength, and occasionally can get a 1 point bonus in physical strength.
If the character is hungry, he will eat some dry food he carries with him, and if he is thirsty, he will drink well water.
This process is extremely boring for most players, but Xiao Zhi is not very disgusted with it. His original intention of playing this game is to kill time.
By playing this game, as long as he can temporarily forget about her and stop thinking about her, his goal will be achieved.
While clicking the screen repeatedly, Xiao Zhi turned on his computer and browsed the game-specific forum of "World of All Living Beings".
Sure enough, as he expected, a lot of players in the forum were complaining about various settings in the game.
Forget about the difficulty of upgrading, there is even a Japanese-style setting like ‘hunger and thirst’.
If you are hungry and pick fruits and vegetables from the farmland outside the village, you will be warned or even expelled by the NPC villagers. If you resist even slightly, you will even be beaten to death on the spot!
Go to the wild to forage for food, and most of the wild fruits there are poisonous fruits. When you encounter a small beast, it will disappear before you start chasing it. When you encounter a large beast, you can't even run away.
Just wait to die.
What the hell, where is this game for people to play? This game is clearly designed to toy with players like them, okay?
Life is already so difficult, and you still have to be played by this fucking game.
Labor and management are no longer playing games!
Disappointment far exceeded expectations, and many players chose to quit the game.
After all, not everyone has both time and patience like Xiao Zhi now.
In this way, two days passed quickly.
There will still be new players coming to Peace Village.
There will also be old players who "stretch their corpses" next to the extinguished campfire, or in a corner of the village.
Xiao Zhi noticed that the "corpses" of the first few players who "revealed their corpses" had disappeared.
It literally means, as if it evaporated out of thin air.
Xiao Zhi guessed that after the player's character "stands out" for a period of time, they will die due to excessive "hunger and thirst" and other factors.
Once the player's character dies, his character will completely disappear from the world, just like being 'deleted'.
If you want to enter the 'World of Living Beings' again, you have to create a new character after the 1-day cooling period.
