Chapter 227 Message in the Classic

The seeds that Xiao Jian gave to the strong black-haired man were relatively common.

Vegetables include cucumbers, tomatoes, onions, lettuce, etc., while staple food seeds are mainly wheat and corn.

These are plants that were once widely grown in the "Gospel World", and among the more than 100 survivors now, there are also people who have managed farmland, so there is no need for Xiao Jian to intervene in reclamation and farming.

However, when Xiao Jian's clone flew to the top of the tall building and looked down at the fragments of the entire world, he suddenly discovered that the changes here were a bit big.

The first is the surrounding farmland.

Although there are no basic agricultural tools, large fields have begun to take shape.

Although the soil quality in "Windmill World" is not very good, fortunately there are enough wells here...

In order to maintain the scale of the green-skinned peons, the Dragonskull clan dug many wells here - the largest of which is right next to the tall building.

Anyway, there is no shortage of wood in the "Windmill World". In the future, you can consider teaching them to make a few waterwheels. Then they can only use the waterwheel to irrigate the fields.

Looking at the little people on the ground working diligently, Xiao Jian always had the illusion of playing a computer game.

Fortunately, as long as the raven clone does not appear in front of them, this group of fanatical believers can still maintain their sanity.

The laughter that occasionally broke out from the workers diluted their non-living NPC smell a lot.

This actually made the indescribable discomfort in Xiao Jian's heart dissipate a little.

After patrolling around, Xiao Jian stopped his distraction and ran upstairs to look for the cat, but he couldn't find it, and he didn't know where it was hidden.

Otherwise, it's called hide-and-seek. Once the cat hides, you can't find it unless it doesn't want to come out.

Xiao Jian, who rarely had time to spare, suddenly felt bored. He took out the stone "Sacred Scripture" and prepared to open it to see if he could find any interesting trading items.

In the past, Xiao Jian would occasionally look through it when he had nothing to do, but because there was so much garbage in the Stone "Sacred Scripture", it seemed that no matter how much sunshine value he put in, he couldn't get any good things.

So Xiao Jian gradually checked the "Holy Code" less and less, and only glanced at it occasionally. Sometimes he didn't even check it, just to see if the message had been restored.

Today, as usual, Xiao Jian just wanted to see if he could get any weird cards to make himself happy. When he suddenly discovered that there was an extra message in the stone "Sacred Scripture":

"I'm sorry! I lied to you! But my village is about to be destroyed. Please give me another servant! Please! I am willing to be a slave forever...but please save my village!" "

"Huh?"

Xiao Jian read the content of this message repeatedly...

At first, he subconsciously thought it was a scam "text message", just like the post-apocalyptic version of the post-apocalyptic "I, Qin Shihuang, fight" that he had seen before, "Contribute your servants to me, and when I become a god, I will make you a follower." money".

But the problem is, Xiao Jian doesn’t know how to leave messages to strangers!

There is no such function at all, right?

Only people who have traded before can spend driving force to leave messages to each other.

So far, Xiao Jian has only left messages to two people.

One of them was the seller of the pistol and asked about wanting to buy more arms.

The second question was addressed to the "Holy Beast Walker", or the "Little Mushroom Walker".

The content is about how to continue upgrading Rhubarb after level 5.

However, so far, Rhubarb has evolved to 94% of level 7, and it can evolve to level 8 with less than 6% progress!

Unfortunately, Rhubarb was no longer able to participate in the subsequent battles, so Rhubarb is still stuck at level 7 at 94%.

Now I suddenly received a reply from "Little Mushroom Walker", which started with "I'm sorry! I lied to you..."

Just this first sentence made Xiao Jian confused - what is this? ?

Didn't Xiao Jian take a huge advantage in that transaction? Why does the other party seem to have taken a huge advantage! ?

Could it be possible that there is something else that Xiao Jian doesn't know about? ?

Thinking of this, Xiao Jian's curiosity was aroused, and then he "typed": "I can save your village... but the price is that you must believe in me."

After typing this line, Xiao Jian chose to send it.

Then he began his long wait.

It had only been 2 days since the last time he checked the festival, so Xiao Jian was sure that this message either appeared yesterday or was just sent today.

If things are as critical as what was said in the "text message", then the "little mushroom walker" opposite the stone "Holy Code" must be waiting next to the "Holy Code" at all times.

Therefore, next, Xiao Jian only needs to wait patiently...waiting for the other party to throw down the chips.

…

…

In the endless darkness of unknown distance, the land of chaos where even the mist has never reached.

There, there is a towering black stone mountain range.

The pure black stone is shiny, like glass or obsidian.

But because there is no sunlight, these stones only feel cold and smooth to the touch, but there is no reflection at all.

It is difficult for the human eye to adapt to such darkness, but after countless generations of inheritance, people always have some ways to overcome the darkness.

For example, the [Thermal Vision] feature.

This characteristic comes from a powerful beast deep in the dark mountains.

It is extremely huge and cannot be resisted by human beings.

But as long as you take a little risk, steal a few eggs and eat them, if you are not poisoned to death, you can awaken this characteristic.

Strangely enough, the mere movement of that mountain-like beast would cause violent earthquakes. But the eggs it excretes are only the size of duck eggs... and they almost never hatch.

Therefore, although egg stealing seems very dangerous, the biggest threshold is actually the first [thermal vision] feature.

As long as you can see in the dark, there is almost no risk in stealing eggs... Even after figuring out the rules, you can even steal eggs on a large scale and sell them.

Hopper's village relies on selling [thermal vision], which is the eggs of giant beasts, to survive.

But now, his village is dying.

Because they were targeted by a more powerful force...

It was a powerful tribal disaster stone that ruled more than 3,000 people and had nearly a hundred awakened people.

The reason is very simple... Calamity Stone wants to monopolize the production of eggs of nearby giant beasts.

Hopper's village was targeted by disaster rocks and had to start migrating deeper into the more dangerous mountains.

However, there are countless strange creatures living on the Blackstone Mountains, and every creature that can survive here is definitely not easy to mess with.

Just by moving a few hills, Hopper's village lost more than a dozen people!

And his village originally only had more than 50 people!

"The bastards of the tribe! I will kill them all sooner or later!"

In a crack in Blackstone Mountain, Hopper punched the ground suddenly, splashing some glass shards.

"...There is nothing we can do about it. The disaster stone is too powerful and cannot be resisted by a small village like ours."

A pleasant female voice sounded in the darkness.

"Damn, damn, damn...if I can have a few more servants, I will definitely kill them all!"

Hopper said, taking out the 1-star [Little Spraying Mushroom] minion card and gently rubbing it.

"What about the awakened ones? The awakened ones can't resist the attack of [Little Spraying Mushroom]!"

"..."

As soon as this was said, everyone fell silent in unison.

It seems that Hopper has a high status in the village, and when he starts to lose his temper, everyone is afraid to say anything.

"Don't be angry and have something to eat." The nice female voice sounded again.

Then, a cake made of moss was handed into Hopper's hands.

"How much food...is there left?" Hopper asked in a low voice as he took the cake.

"There are also 3 moss cakes and 15 plasters." A pleasant voice answered in the darkness.

"well……"

Hopper sighed and stuffed the moss pancake into his mouth as if to vent his anger.

"Where's the Holy Scripture? Let's see if that fool replied..."

As soon as Hopper stretched out his hand, someone next to him handed over a heavy stone.

"Let me see... Huh?"

When Hopper saw the message that just appeared, he was suddenly stunned.

"What's wrong, Hopper?" asked the pleasant female voice.

"...That stupid...that person answered." Hopper stammered.

"Oh? What did he say?" the pleasant female voice asked curiously.

"Well, he said... he could save my village at the cost of making me believe in him."

Hopper said hesitantly.

"...Faith!?" The female voice in the darkness suddenly rose several octaves.

"Um."

"No!! Absolutely not!" The female voice in the darkness objected, "We are not able to come into contact with existences of this level. If we are not careful, the whole village will..."

Halfway through her words, the female voice suddenly paused.

"Really?" Hopper lowered his head, "We have no choice."

Yes, no matter what, their village will not be saved...

The people from the Calamity Stone Tribe are still chasing after them, with a distance of no more than 2 days at most.

As long as they catch up, the best result is to become a slave...

As for the worst option?

It's just being eaten, that's all.

The rules on the Blackstone Mountains have always been that the weak eat the strong, and weakness itself is the original sin.

"...There is no other way, this is the only way."

After Hopper finished speaking, there was no objection from anyone in the darkness.

…

In the small courtyard.

"Uh-huh...yeah."

Xiao Jian let out a long yawn.

Ever since that message was sent out, everything has just fallen into disarray.

I originally thought there would be a reply soon, but when Xiao Jian was already sleepy, there was still no movement from the Holy Code.

Maybe the other party is already dead?

Just when Xiao Jian was about to give up the scripture and go back to his room to relax for a while, he suddenly felt that a vague link of faith had been established in a very far away place.

"Eh? This... actually happened!?"

Through the faith link, Xiao Jian could only vaguely feel that the other party was praying, but he could not hear clearly what the other party was saying.

I don’t know if it’s because the relationship is too far or if the other person is not religious, but no matter what, Xiao Jian has done a lot through this faith link.

"Dahuang! Dahuang, get out of here! I want to use [Peeping Eyes]! I need it now!"

Xiao Jian didn't need to shout a second time, Dahuang jumped back with the monocle in his mouth.

"Meow meow meow!"

Dahuang asked for credit.

Xiao Jian ignored it at all, put on the monocle directly, and then chose to use it on the other end of the faith link.

"..."

“…”

The monocle was pitch black, nothing in it.

Xiao Jian took off his glasses and wiped them carefully, then put them back on…

The result was still a void of pitch black.

“Could it be…”

Xiao Jian activated the [Break the Confusion] feature.

As the red flames ignited in his eyes, he finally saw the world on the other side clearly.

There, all he could see were large tracts of obsidian.

There was no light, no plants, and even no sky.

There were only endless glass-like stones and a deep, dark sky that could not be seen at a glance.

After looking at the surrounding environment, Xiao Jian finally focused his attention on the more than 30…intelligent creatures in front of him.

The reason why they are called “intelligent creatures” is because they are not human beings at all!

It was the first time that Xiao Jian saw non-human intelligent creatures.

These “things” were covered with long, porcupine-like hair.

Especially on the head and hands, there were dozens of straight and stiff hairs.

It looks a bit like the antennae of an insect, and a bit like the whiskers of a cat.

The heads of these "things" are also covered with thick black hair. There are no eyes on their faces, only a mouth-like structure.

This group of "long-haired" still maintains the same hands and feet as humans, and the structure of the head and torso... but the proportions of each part are seriously out of balance.

Their heads are big, their arms are long, and their legs are short.

Each individual has a big belly, and the overall image is more like a chimpanzee with a big head and "cat whiskers" on his hands than a human.

"Great will, I feel your coming... Please forgive the sinner Hopper for deceiving you. That "holy beast card" is just garbage after I was deceived at the Holy Maiden Peak... I am not a holy beast walker..."

Under Xiao Jian's "feet", the same long-haired chimpanzee naggingly recounted how it was deceived.

It turned out that this guy was deceived by an old man when he was selling some goods. He hatched the so-called "holy beast" for a long time but failed to hatch it. In the end, he had to throw it into the "holy book" waiting for the destined person.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Jian actually hatched the "holy beast"!

Even he himself didn't expect this!

After seeing Xiao Jian's question, Hopper suddenly realized that the other party was likely to be someone he couldn't afford to offend, so he deliberately ignored Xiao Jian's message.

However, their village is currently facing a crisis of extinction, and in the end they had no choice but to ask for help from Xiao Jian, who had been "cheated" by him once.

"... Great One, I'm really sorry. If I can compensate you, I would like to be your slave forever... But please have mercy and save our village!"

"Thank you..."
