Chapter 378 Moon River Village
As soon as the sky was dawn, I rubbed my sleepy eyes. Thinking of the strange thing last night, I immediately got up from the bed, washed it and ate it, cheered up, and continued to enter the world, muttering in my heart: "Go up today, don't be piled up in piles of skeletons like last night, then we'd be stunned.
It's really strange in this world. You can come whatever you are afraid of. I'm worried that I'll have nothing after I go online. As expected, the village in front of me is still ruins, and even the skeletons who walked around last night disappeared without a trace.
In the blue sky, the scorching sun was baking this land ruthlessly. I was like a headless fly running around, looking for clues to the relevant. Unfortunately, no matter which direction I chose to walk from, around, I would eventually return to this lifeless small village. There was no one around, no wonder, and there was not even a moving thing. I leaned against the wall powerlessly, with my eyelids trembling. It turned out that I would be sleepy in the game. I was so bored that I fell asleep unknowingly.
"Hehe, uncle, you are here again!" A crisp laugh like a copper bell woke me up from my sleep. I looked up suddenly, raised my mouth full of saliva, opened my eyes and saw that Emil's cute little face was in front of me.
What happened? I quickly stood up and looked up at the sky. I saw that the sun in the west had not completely set, but the hazy moon could no longer wait for me to occupy the sky. So that's it, I understood it: it turned out that this was the village only during the interval between the sun and the moon, and at night, all the NPCs would become skeletons and continue their lives. I could see them, but they could not see me. By day, they didn't know where to hide. Although I didn't understand why, I finally found a clue.
The sun is about to set. I have to seize this time to inquire with the people in the village.
"Uncle, Uncle Granton said yesterday that he had met a ghost, why did you dare to come here?" Emil looked at me with a smile, raised his head, and asked with a strange look.
"Are you talking about Glenton a blacksmith?" I asked casually, wanting to confirm my guess.
Emil nodded and said, "Yes, uncle, do you know Uncle Glenton? He is the best blacksmith in our village. My father's hoe is built by him."
Sure enough, those skeletons were the NPCs at this time. I smiled secretly. Isn’t the ghost she mentioned that the blacksmith Granton encountered me? I haven’t said he is a ghost yet.
"Amier. Tell uncle, who in your village has the most weight? "Since I don't have much time, I naturally have to find out clearly. I can't go around, otherwise I will have to wait until tomorrow. Although we have brought a lot of medicine, we are not prepared enough. If we drag this on, at most, I will starve to death here in a few days. That's the big joke.
Emil tilted her head and thought for a while and said, "The village chief, Grandpa Gesang, is the most important thing. His parents said Grandpa Gesang knows everything. So everyone in the village listens to Grandpa Gesang's words."
"Would Emil take me to see this Grandpa Gesang?" I quickly said with a little girl. Now we have something to ask for her, and our tone is very polite.
"Okay!" Emil nodded happily, then shook his head and whispered: "I went out to run around yesterday and was scolded by my mother. Today she only allowed me to play at the doorstep. I was not allowed to go out."
At the door of the house? I looked up and saw that I had just leaned against the broken wall and had indeed turned into a small thatched hut. Through the window, I could see a woman packing something in the house. This was a coincidence. When I first came in, I met Emil and found a place to squat, and actually squatted to her door.
I touched her little face and said with a smile: "Then tell uncle, where is the beads in Grandpa Gesang's house good? Uncle will go find them by himself."
Emil nodded in response, raised her finger and pointed to the east of the village, and told me that the one with white sheepskin on the roof was Grandpa Gesang's home. I patted her head gently, and quickly turned around and ran.
"Emier, who are you talking to? Didn't you tell you not to talk to strangers? Why don't you listen to your mother again?" The voice of a middle-aged woman came from the room.
"Mom, uncle is not a stranger. He knows Uncle Glenton and asks me where Grandpa Gesang lives!" Emil replied loudly.
"Really?" The woman in the room stuck her head out of the room and looked around, but she could only see a hurriedly leaving back. She murmured: "Is the legend true? Is it true that another hero is here to save us..."
Sheepskin, sheepskin. I looked up at the sun that was about to set, and anxiously searched for the house with sheepskin, because I knew that as soon as the sun set, I would never see any roof again. At that time, the whole village would become a rotten pit and low wall. Even if I found that Mr. Gesang, he would only be a skeleton that could not see me and could not communicate with.
When I finally found the house with sheepskin drying, the sunset finally collected the last trace of light and disappeared into the sky, covering the entire village endlessly. The house with white sheepskin drying suddenly disappeared from my eyes and turned into a broken earthen house. A skeleton rack with a bowed waist walked around the road house, holding a wooden stick for a cane in his hand.
I really told me that this is the uncle Gesang I am looking for, but now I have different paths from me.
I sighed. It was already like this, so we had to wait for another day, kick the stones on the roadside and get off the line.
Since the time between the game and reality is one to two, if you spend one day in the game, there is only half a day in reality. If you adjust the alarm clock, it will be better to go to bed and sleep. Although you can't sleep, it is much better than to fight skeletons that cannot be beaten or eaten in the game.
The alarm clock of "Lingling" rang happily, and I turned over and got up from the bed and hurried into the game. Well, it was not too late, and it was just right, and a crescent moon had just climbed up from the horizon, and the sun had not completely disappeared. At this time, I was standing in front of the earthen house of yesterday, looking at the small thatched hut that was like magic being cast in front of me, and there was a sound of footsteps coming from the room.
I gently pushed the door and saw an old man in a brown robe walking around the room, his snow-white beard dragging long on his chest, his old eyes were bright and full of wisdom. He was muttering words, holding an ebony stick in one hand and touching his beard in the other, as if he was thinking about something. Perhaps because he was too focused and cracked, no one even noticed it when someone came in.
"Are you Mr. Gesang?" Although the name of the village chief Gesang was marked on his head, I always have to be polite. It's not a big deal that people are so polite.
He heard my voice, as if something suddenly got stuck, and almost jumped up. After a while, he came to his senses and looked at me. His eyes seemed to see something like hell devil.
"Are you Mr. Gesang?" Seeing that he was motionless for a long time, I had to ask again.
"Finally, it's finally here! You, you finally appear!" Mr. Gesang suddenly threw away the crutch in his hand, rushed up in one step, grabbed my arm with both hands, like a drowning man suddenly grabbed a life-saving straw, staring at me with his eyes straight, and his face was so excited that he was full of tears and cried.
"Uncle... Are you..." I'm not used to being caught like this by a man or an old man, and I was really not used to it. Moreover, he grabbed it too hard. I felt that my arm was about to be pulled and dislocated by him.
The old man seemed to feel a little out of control. He let go of one hand and bent down to pick up the crutches on the ground, but he refused to let go of the other hand, as if he was afraid that I would run away.
"Don't blame me for being too excited. I've been waiting for too long!" He pulled me into the house and said, "I'm still the only one who can't wait for that day again. Unexpectedly, the legend is true. Our Yuehe Village is saved!"
"What legend? Uncle, let go of your hand, I won't run away." I helped the old man to sit down in the wooden chair in the middle of the living room, and I whispered, "What's this? I'm just here to do a task. As for being so excited? And isn't this called "Lament Ruins"? Why is it called Yuehe Village?
"Oh, this matter is a long story." Mr. Gesang finally let go of his hand, touching the black and shiny crutches with both hands, and sighed. I said in a hurry: Don't say it slowly, do you know how long stories are short? The sun and the moon are only bright for a while. If you say it slowly, I'm afraid I'll have to wait for another day.
He looked up at the sky outside the door and continued, "You think it's strange, why do I call this place Yuehe Village, but what you see is a ruin, right?" I nodded, and it turned into a village every day. At other times, monsters run around. No wonder there are ghosts.
Mr. Gesang wiped his already wet eyes and said, "Originally, this place was called Yuehe Village. It was a victim who fled here in order to avoid war. We have always lived a life of isolation from the world. It was supposed to be a paradise. Until one day, a foreigner came here accidentally and was seriously injured. The people in the village saved him, but they did not know that it caused a disaster."
