"Hey, everyone's awake." An old man in gray robe came over to call people, and was a little surprised to see everyone awake.
The uncle glanced at everyone and said again, "Since everyone is awake, come with me."
"Uncle, where are you taking us?" a young man with glasses asked.
The uncle looked at him and replied, "I'll take you to dinner."
After knowing the destination, the newcomer did not continue to talk. If you ask more questions, it is better to wait for the NPC to take the initiative to speak, so as not to violate the taboo.
Twenty players followed the uncle. The scenery nearby was very primitive. They seemed to be on an isolated island.
The scenery along the road is all related to water. The houses are built very high, and the ancestral hall is almost the tallest building.
The place that can be seen clearly is water, and the invisible area is white mist. That is the rule boundary, and players cannot go out.
The uncle led the players all the way down to the path along the river bank and made a half circle before they reached the place to eat.
The person who prepared the food was an elderly mother-in-law, and the cooked food was so mushy that the original ingredients could no longer be seen.
"We're here, you guys find a seat and sit down." The uncle pointed to the room and explained.
"You have half an hour to eat. After eating, I have to take you to work. I have to go back to the ancestral hall later."
"Uncle, what are we going to do?" Jing Yuxing asked as he picked up the bowl.
He smelled the food and found that it was cooked with sweet potatoes and beans. There was no unusual smell, indicating that the player could eat it.
Food cannot be taken from the prop space. The mission is limited to five days. Players will starve to death if they don't eat.
Jing Yuxing scooped it up with a spoon and ate it, and asked others to eat it too. Unfortunately, not many people could stand the paste.
Cang Xiang took a bite and found it not unpleasant. The taste was not too sweet. He asked his mother-in-law who cooked the rice for some sugar to season it.
"Brother, can you swallow this thing?" the young man sitting next to Cang Li said with bared teeth.
Cang Fu swallowed something before speaking, "The time limit is five days."
The young man let out a hey, and started eating after understanding the words. Occasionally, it would be good to eat sweet potato paste.
"Brother, my name is Fan Qi, what about you?" Fan Qi rolled up his sleeves to show off his arms and said, "I'm a boxer."
Cang Fu glanced at him and chuckled, "It doesn't look like him."
Fan Qi didn't care and laughed, "A lot of people say that, but I'm really a boxer."
Cang Fu thought this person was interesting and introduced him, "My name is Zang. I study mythology."
Fan Qi's eyes lit up and he said with admiration, "No wonder you look so knowledgeable."
Cang Fei smiled and didn't explain, but went to her mother-in-law and asked for another bowl. Sweet potatoes are easy to digest, so eating too little of them won't make you full.
Fan Qi is half an athlete and eats more than a normal person, so he directly filled a wooden bucket with half of it.
No one paid attention to the two of them chatting. After all, there were too many people to pay attention. Everyone looked over when they saw them adding bowls.
"It's been so long, and I'm still thinking about eating." A skinny monkey muttered.
His hostility was directed at Cang Fei, mainly because he didn't look like a man and his face was too beautiful.
According to the rules, the player's face will not be too outrageous. Cang Fei's appearance was reduced by 70%, making him look better than others.
Human nature is like this. Those who are too good will be jealous of others, and those who are cruel will even want to destroy others.
"The mission is not as important as eating." Cang Fu scolded him, "It's as if others don't allow you to eat."
The thin monkey hammered the table vigorously and said, "Only a ghost would eat this kind of food given to pigs."
"Mother-in-law, he is wasting food." Cang Fei pointed at the thin monkey and complained.
"You are so sick!" Thin Monkey picked up a bowl and threw it at him.
Cang Fu turned slightly to the side and kicked Fan Qi to the ground. The bowl that Thin Monkey had hit fell to the ground.
"What a disobedient child." The mother-in-law slowly picked up the bowl.
The mother-in-law walked towards the thin monkey with the bowl, and the latter rolled up his sleeves and threatened, "What are you doing, old woman? Do you want to be beaten?"
The mother-in-law didn't listen to what Shouhou said at all, she still moved unhurriedly, and when she got close, she tore off his arm.
Blood spurted out, and the thin monkey cried out in pain and huddled on the ground, but he could not escape the poisonous hand of his mother-in-law.
"What a bad boy." Grandma Dali said after finishing the thin monkey.
There was silence in the cafeteria. Those who were scared tightly covered their mouths and did not dare to look. No one dared to disturb the mother-in-law's movements.
After the mother-in-law has finished cleaning up the torn corpses, the uncle urges the players to eat quickly. They don't have much time.
"Brother, do we still eat?" Fan Qi asked cautiously.
Oh my god! It was so exciting just now, he almost got involved, but fortunately Brother Zang kicked him down.
As a boxer, Fan Qi was born to admire the strong, and he became more and more fond of Cang Xi.
Cang Xi sat down firmly and said, "If you leave the task alone, it will not go away. If you miss the meal, the food will be gone."
"You seem to know a lot, Zang." Jing Yuxing once again suspected that Cang Fu was an old player.
Cang Xi sighed, "I always forget the time when I'm reading. My mother cooks and tells me not to eat. After the time has passed, I don't have to eat."
This reason is very applicable. Adults all have this problem, and Jing Yuxing's suspicions were deceived again.
Cang Fu took advantage of the opportunity to put down the bowl and asked the system, "Isn't Jing Yuxing a god-level player?"
——Ding! Level 90 is a special level, and player Jing Yuxing is currently at level 90.
"Didn't he get promoted a long time ago?" Cang Fu remembered hearing that he had been promoted a long time ago.
——Ding! Players want to save face and often exaggerate.
Cang Fu snorted coldly, "Is this all the newcomers you are talking about?"
There is a special-level player here, and he is chosen to be the chief judge. The system is probably going into trouble again.
The system is frozen. This question cannot be answered well. It is better to pretend to be dead. Pretending to be dead can save your life.
Jing Yuxing didn't get the MVP in the last dungeon, so he doesn't have the qualifications to become the chief judge.
He has never conducted a test with god-level players because there are too many things to do, and he changed the rules before he could upgrade the system.
"Have you all eaten?" The uncle glanced at everyone, "After eating, I will tell you the rules first."
"First, you must be taken out of the ancestral hall by me in the next few days."
"Second, you can't waste the food cooked by your mother-in-law."
"Third, you can't leave the house at night."
"Fourth, the chosen bride must spend the night in the ancestral hall."
"Fifth, the person who made the mistake must accept the punishment of the whole village."
The uncle said five points in one breath, one of which included the mistake that the thin monkey made just now.
The NPCs are really bad. If the boss had explained the rules clearly from the beginning, how would the players dare to waste food?
The few who were so disgusted just now that they didn't eat the glutinous rice are now turning green. If they don't eat, it's considered a waste, and waste will be punished.
"Uncle, this is the first time that everyone doesn't know the rules. Can we forget about the punishment?" Cang Xi said.
The uncle smiled coldly, "You should be punished for wasting food."
Cang Fu snorted back in the same cold voice, "It's because you didn't make it clear that you wasted food. If my mother-in-law wants to punish her, she should punish you first."
The young man's arrogant tone didn't sound like he was discussing, but like a dictator who judged others, blocking the old man with just one sentence.
The uncle admits that he is in the wrong. He did have some thoughts just now. He cannot let his mother-in-law discover this, otherwise he will become a bad boy.
Cang Fu found out the discord between NPCs through a test, and he was quite satisfied with the result.
