Chapter 9: The Toad Swallows the Moon
Chapter 9
Years of experience in game nerds told Cheng Dalei that opening a box is a gambling. It is possible to open the whiteboard props, or it is possible to directly open the top orange martial arts, of course, there is also the possibility of empty boxes.
But if I'm so prosperous today, this kind of thing will definitely not happen.
He cleaned his hands and burned incense, bowed to the sky three times, and finally brought over a wooden box and opened it vigorously.
"Attention, everyone, witness the moment of miracle!"
Everyone leaned over to see that the box was empty and there was nothing. Cheng Dalei sneered: "Thousands of handfuls can't win the first hand, no one tells you this truth, good luck is behind." ”
The second box was also empty, Cheng Dalei didn't believe in evil, and opened ten boxes in a row, but found nothing. Especially the last bite, it felt very heavy, Cheng Dalei was excited, this was an excellent opportunity to get out of Africa and enter Europe, but after opening it, he found that there was a pile of stones in the box.
This made Cheng Dalei dare not open it again, and he was depressed, even if the system was brushed out of the shadow by his own BUG, he should not retaliate like this.
"Big boss, let me take a sip. "Xu Shenji.
"You open it, you open it, your face is darker than mine. ”
Xu Shenji excitedly moved over a box, although he didn't report hope, Cheng Dalei still handed over a look.
"There's something, there's something...... Xu Shenji shouted, and he was suddenly stunned: "What is this?"
It was a box full of black powdery things, Cheng Dalei pinched it, and suddenly had a spirit: "This is gunpowder." ”
"What is gunpowder?" Qin Man, Xu Shenji, and Xu Ling'er all asked in confusion.
Cheng Dalei didn't answer, he didn't know what the production level of this world was, but according to Cheng Dalei's judgment, he had almost lost the possibility of climbing the science and technology tree. First, I don't have this ability to be a liberal arts student, and the productivity of this world doesn't have this soil.
Seeing that the three of them didn't recognize the black powder in front of them, although there was a reason for the information blockage of Qingniu Mountain, at least it also showed that gunpowder had not been used on a large scale.
With the help of this gunpowder, and relying on the geographical convenience, it is not impossible to deal with the attack of Black Rock City.
Cheng Dalei was excited and said, "Quickly open the wooden box and see how many of these things there are." ”
Xu Ling'er and the three of them started a pleasant game of opening the box, and when someone opened something, they let out an excited shout. However, Cheng Dalei could only watch from the sidelines, there was no way, if he was not possessed by the chieftain, Cheng Dalei did not dare to take risks.
In the end, a total of ten crates of gunpowder were opened, and the other crates were empty. Cheng Dalei also needs to think about how to give full play to the maximum value of this gunpowder.
"The box is put away, I'm still useful. ”
"The big boss Gao Jian, these are good wood, we can burn wood in winter. ”
"I actually really want to burn you, keep it, and break one I'll ask you. Cheng Dalei shook his head helplessly, and suddenly remembered one more thing, and asked, "Military advisor, where is the field of our cottage?"
"On the back slopes, it has been barren for several years, and I sowed some wheat seeds in the spring, but nothing grows. The big boss asked what this is for?"
"Go check it out. ”
"It's getting dark, what are you doing so far, it's miles away. ”
Xu Shenji is very lazy, he is very tired from moving the box, and if he doesn't go his own way, he can only lead the way.
And when the four of them walked to the back hillside, Xu Shenji was stunned. Ten acres of wheat fields are now covered with golden ears of wheat, and the spring on the mountain, which has dried up, is now flowing with clear spring water.
Everything was expected by Cheng Dalei, and now it is best to reward himself with a system.
"God bless, God bless!"
Xu Shenji suddenly rushed into the wheat field, with a fascinated expression on his face, so many harvests from the cottage did not make him show such an expression. Qin Man also smiled, smiling innocently.
Cheng Dalei was stunned and looked at this scene blankly.
"Ling'er, don't run around and touch the ears of wheat. ”
"These can be harvested, thousands of catties of grain can be beaten, and this winter can be survived. ”
"The wheat straw can also be harvested and burned, so you can get a little less drunk in winter. ”
"We have to harvest it quickly, the rainy season is almost coming. ”
The three of them stood in the wheat field, discussing enthusiastically, and they were all experts.
"Big boss, let's harvest the wheat overnight, it's all in the soup when it rains. Xu Shenji ran over and said.
"Okay, you hurry up and gather the wheat, and when the people from Blackstone City come, let them pull it away. ”
Xu Shenji was speechless, he suddenly knelt down, and kept saying: "Immortal bless, great kindness." ”
Cheng Dalei was speechless, but a few acres of wheat, as for that. And what surprised him even more was that even Qin Man and Xu Ling'er knelt on the ground and said the same thing.
Looking at the pious expressions on their faces, Cheng Dalei suddenly understood something.
The cottage is not as imagined, a group of vicious and vicious wicked people, killing people without blinking, going down the mountain to grab it, eating meat and drinking a lot. This is not the case, the cottage is sometimes more like a village, there are old people and children, some people open up the wasteland to grow grain, and sometimes they will go down the mountain to buy some necessities.
For example, the three in front of Cheng Dalei really exalted them to say that they were bandits.
Like Xu Shenji, Cheng Dalei has also figured out his origin in the past two days. When Xu Shenji was at the bottom of the mountain, he was a private school teacher in a village, and he said that he was a private school teacher, that is, he could barely read and write. His greatest amusement was to save some copper plates, exchange a pot of wine, and stare at the chest of the widow in the village and drool.
It is always an abomination and a nuisance to people, whether it is under the mountain or on the mountain.
One day, a bully in the village targeted Xu Ling'er, and the bully was not a particularly powerful character, but a relative who was a crutch and a servant of a nobleman in the city. But no one dares to mess with this in the village, let alone Xu Shenji, who has no meat on his body.
One day, Xu Shenji dressed Xu Linger up beautifully, invited the bully to his home, bought wine on credit, and slaughtered the old hen that laid eggs at home......
"Ling'er will be blessed with you, and I will be able to get some blessings in the future. ”
"You see how handsome my Ling'er looks and how white my face is, I will definitely be able to serve you well. ”
"Today you will be in the cave, don't worry, I will guard the door for you...... Haha......"
......
......
When he was drunk with the bully, Xu Shenji cut off the other party's head with a kitchen knife, and escaped with Xu Ling'er all the way.
This may be the first time Xu Shenji has used a strategy in his life, and it must be the only one that has succeeded.
In the end, it was not until the sun sank that the three of them were reluctant to leave the wheat field, and the four of them returned to the cottage together.
Cheng Dalei pulled out the banner of the system reward and shook it in front of Xu Shenji.
"Hey, isn't this the original banner of our cottage, I thought someone had changed my pants, but I found it today. ”
"I'm like asking, who designed this pattern, a toad, with an egg on its head, is it to express the use of an egg on the top of the toad?"
"That's not an egg, that's the moon, this picture of a toad swallowing the moon, you say so......"
"Hang it!" Cheng Dalei threw the banner to Qin Man.
Qin Man was as vigorous as an old ape, climbed onto the flagpole in three or two, and hung the big flag on the top.
When he came down, all four of them looked up at the banner, which was unfurled by the night wind, and the banner was hunting and dancing, and the toad on it seemed to move, showing greedy eyes at the moon overhead. It seems to want to convey a meaning:
To be a toad, to swallow the moon and eat swan meat.
There seems to be something connected in the hearts of the four people, the cottage has food, everyone can survive this winter, as long as they can survive the current crisis, the eyes of the four people are in a trance, and they suddenly have the belief to protect this place.
"Is this a revelation?" Cheng Dalei thought silently in his heart, and at this time, the system gave two prompts.
Dut, righteous boy, your banner has been hoisted, and the heroes of the Quartet will come to your command as soon as they hear the wind.
Woo, receive the task to recruit the population, increase the copycat population to 100, and reward the number of lottery draws 1.
