In the drugstore, the group of travelers had already negotiated with the boss, and their work seemed to be related to the preparation of some medicinal materials.

Tingyun, Sanyueqi and others observed on the street for a while. This task was not troublesome, but it was not so easy to complete.

Although the travelers were very careful in their operation, they still accidentally destroyed a batch of medicinal herbs.

The owner of the drugstore was easy to talk to. Not only did he not ask them to pay compensation, but he allowed these people to continue working.

"It's really strange. These people don't look like players." March 7 was a little puzzled.

The characteristics of a micro-multiplayer plot copy are short plots and fast pace, so few people enter this kind of plot world.

I originally thought that these travelers were other players, but now it seems that this is not the case. At least players shouldn’t be so ignorant.

"Perhaps they are also NPCs in this plot world." Tingyun said, "But compared to these problematic people in the town, these travelers should be normal people. They, like us, accidentally entered this problematic town."

"So this is now considered a plot interpretation? It's also a part of guiding the players?" Xing reacted. If you think in this way, the logic will be much smoother.

Perhaps in the original Qingyun Town plot world, there was indeed a group of travelers who mistakenly entered here, and the situation at that time was the same as what they saw now. This group of people was first taken in by the inn, stayed for one night, and came to the pharmacy to work the next day.

As for the subsequent ending...

If their previous guess was correct, and the bun shop was the only place where they could work and eat normally, then the fate of these people was self-evident.

"Let's go. I think I understand." Tingyun turned and walked towards the steamed bun shop. "If I'm not mistaken, these shops in the town allow outsiders to work, but the work content is designed by them long ago. If it causes losses, the workers need to pay compensation with copper coins."

"It doesn't matter if you don't have enough copper coins. You can always use something of equivalent value to replace it. I now roughly know what this equivalent value is."

"What?" Sanyueqi came up quickly, "Miss Tingyun, you are amazing. You thought of it right away?"

"Maybe this has something to do with my daily work." Tingyun smiled slightly and continued, "In my opinion, there are two types of native residents in the town. One type is the innkeeper and the pharmacy owner. Although they look like humans, they lack complete body tissues."

"There is another type, which is a monster like the inn waiter and the medicine shop apprentice, who only has a human form but actually has an animal body."

"If we and those foreign travelers are normal, it is not difficult to guess what the equivalent objects are. These people in Qingyun Town should be monsters. What they are looking for are the hands, feet, bodies, facial features, etc. of normal people who have strayed into this place."

The other three people suddenly felt enlightened after hearing Tingyun's words. In Qingyun Town, the low-status waiter and the apprentice in the pharmacy were all in the form of monsters, while the innkeeper and the pharmacy owner had already transformed, but were not complete yet.

The same is true for everyone else in the town. Qingyun Town is governed by a strange set of rules, so even if these monsters wish to devour the intruders, they still need to follow the rules here.

For San Yueqi, Tingyun, Bai Heng and Xing, these rules are also the key to whether they can successfully complete the main task and escape from here.

The main quest only takes seven days to complete, which is quite simple.

Everyone returned to the bun shop. Although it seemed to be noon, they did not feel hungry at all.

The steamed buns eaten in the morning also have a certain regulatory power. Eating one is enough to support your satiety for the whole day.

"Would you like another bun, guests?" Upon seeing them, a hint of surprise flashed across the face of the bun shop owner, and then he came forward with a smile in his eyes.

"No, no." Sanyueqi waved his hands repeatedly. Although the buns in the morning were delicious, one a day was enough.

Now they only have one copper coin left, and they need to at least deal with the problem of accommodation tonight.

Hearing this, the boss of the bun shop suddenly looked gloomy and said, "If that's the case, please do as you please. I still have work to do."

He no longer paid attention to San Yueqi and the others, and started to get busy in his shop, preparing buns to be sold tomorrow.

It’s just that the bun shop owner has no hands, so he has to do everything with his feet.

Seeing the other party use his feet to open a bag of flour, Sanyueqi and Xing's faces turned green. Damn it, the delicious buns we ate this morning, could it be that the dough was kneaded by the other party with his feet? !

Fortunately, such a suffocating thing did not happen. The bun shop owner opened the bag of flour, carried it on his shoulder and poured it into a machine.

Fortunately, it was the power of machinery, and several people breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, Tingyun stepped forward and asked: "Boss, can you hire us to work?"

"Give me a copper and I'll tell you the answer." The bun shop owner sneered and said without raising his head.

"Hey, it seems that our efforts to extract information from that scholar yesterday were discovered, and now it has become like this." San Yue Qi put his hands on his hips, speechless.

Bai Heng: "But it seems that we also know the answer."

Although the first rule prohibits lying in Qingyun Town, it does not force you to answer other people's questions, so the bun shop owner's words did not violate the rules.

But what he said also gave Tingyun the answer he wanted, because if the bun shop could not hire outsiders, the boss could directly deny this answer, and it would not have any impact on him.

Since the bun shop owner did not deny it, it means the answer is yes.

"Boss, except for working in the bun shop, everywhere else in this town is dangerous, right?" Tingyun asked again.

This time, the bun shop owner had a gloomy face and seemed to be silent.

This means that their guess was correct.

"But how can we stay here and work now? Will he hire us?" March 7 frowned slightly. Although he verified many problems, he still did not solve the practical problems.

In response to this question, the bun shop owner snorted coldly, and his expression said it all.

Although logically speaking, they could work in the bun shop and it was within the rules, but Xing and Bai Heng couldn't think of any way to get the other party to speak up.

At this moment, Tingyun suddenly thought of a possibility, and stepped forward to the owner of the bun shop and said, "I want to make a deal with you. We will help you complete the daily work of the bun shop, and you will pay each of us a copper coin as a reward."
