Let's suffer a little longer, fellow Blue Star folks.

"1000 pounds."

Tang Yi also answered respectfully.

Although he really wanted to kill the demon with a sword, because that was what he did in Yunhe Town.

But thinking of Yu Shui who had not gone far, and the 1000 kilograms of food and tools in the cart, Tang Yi still resisted the urge.

"1000 jin..." The middle-aged man thought for a moment, then turned to look at the young man.

"Old Four, give them another 200 kilograms. We are all human beings. In these troubled times, we must help each other and fight against the demons together."

? ?

What's the meaning.

You want to act, right?

Okay, it’s free food anyway, why not take it?

Tang Yi immediately called Yu Shui, who had not yet walked far, to come back, and then loaded the newly obtained 200 kilograms of grain onto the cart.

"Thank you very much. I have no way to repay you." Tang Yi bowed to the middle-aged man.

It's just the start of the show.

No one will be the same.

"Hahaha, there's no need to be like this. I hope you can get through this. If you encounter any difficulties, you can come to Fangjia Village to find me." The middle-aged man said cheerfully.

"Okay, we'll definitely come."

Tang Yi said firmly, his words full of true feelings.

After saying that, he and Yu Shui pulled the cart away.

"Chief, what's going on? Why did they send us another 200 kilograms of food?" When the gate of Fangjia Village gradually disappeared from their sight, Yu Shui couldn't help but ask.

"Don't ask now, wait until we get back."

Tang Yi spoke calmly, his eyes naturally wandering around. He seemed to be observing casually, but in fact he was looking for any sentries from Fangjia Village nearby.

This is still the territory of Fangjia Village, and he couldn't possibly say here that the middle-aged man was a demon.

Yu Shui nodded, then turned back to pull the cart and opened the group chat.

Yu Wenbobo: Deal done! We've brought back over a thousand kilograms of grain.

Yu Wenbobo: I feel that the NPCs in Fangjia Village are quite friendly. I wonder if subsequent players can come and trade with them on their own.

Phosphorus Pentoxide: Is the money they gave us Confederate currency?

Yu Wenbobo: It seems not. When I saw the leader communicating with them, the trading unit was Qi Stone, which was calculated in taels.

Yu Wenbobo: What is this Qi Stone used for? Has anyone of you heard NPCs talk about it?

The group suddenly fell silent.

Good boy, it seems like no one knows.

It was not until the afternoon that Tang Yi brought Yu Shui back to the gathering place.

At this time, A Tui and Oxygen were both online.

Seeing that the cart was loaded with cargo, the two of them immediately ran over to help unload the cargo, and asked Yu Shui about the news of Fangjia Village.

After all, it’s still a bit troublesome to talk about many things in a group chat.

"I think the most important thing about this trip to Fangjia Village is unlocking the currency system," said Yu Shui.

"Think about it, if we follow a true supply and demand system, in this apocalyptic worldview, there will definitely be an exchange of supplies between the various gathering places."

"Then a unified currency is definitely needed."

"Is it the Qi Stone you mentioned before?" asked Ah Tui.

"That's right, and this Qi Stone must have some use. Otherwise, in this world, if you use gold and silver to buy food from others, do you think they will sell it to you?"

"They're all talking about cyber cultivation, so could this Qi Stone be like the spirit stones in novels about cultivation, able to aid one's cultivation?" Oxygen also expressed his opinion. "And didn't the leader also say that the energy that drives our weapons is 'Qi'?"

"That's right!"

"Hiss—it's really possible."

"..."

Just as the players were analyzing the Qi Stone, Tang Yi also found Xia Keyu.

"Ah? There's a high-level demon in Fang Village?" Xia Keyu blinked, surprise written all over her face. "That shouldn't be the case. Why would a demon be interested in that place?"

“That’s something I don’t understand.”

There are many small gathering places like Fangjia Village around Yunhe Town. If the demons in each village were to send out a high-level demon, they would not have enough manpower.

And even if the demons wanted to set up camp in certain villages, they should choose those on the edge of Yunhe Town.

Those villages are close to the town and have close ties with it. Whether it is for obtaining intelligence or serving as a springboard for attack, they are much more useful than Fangjia Village.

Will hiding a high-level demon in Fangjia Village really help them in their plan to seize Yunhe Town?

or……

What unknown secrets does Fangjia Village have?

It shouldn’t be.

Why is it that as soon as he established a gathering place here, strange things started happening one after another around him?

Let’s not talk about the three big demons in Yunhe Town for now.

In chronological order, first there was the strange disease in the town, then the group of demons hidden in the valley, and then the high-level demons in Fangjia Village now.

Each one is more bizarre than the other, and they all happen to be related to him.

Or……

Are these things actually related?

……

The matter of Fangjia Village can only be put aside for the time being because there are too few clues.

In the next two days, Tang Yi still took Oxygen and Chenlu to go hunting.

After all, the prey that was hunted before was exchanged for food, so some extra meat and plants had to be stored.

They chose not to cross the river, nor did they choose to go west. For a while, the east side of the gathering place was in chaos because of the three people.

By this stage, players are all too familiar with it.

It is their nature to pluck feathers from passing geese and sweep them away without a trace.

So in just three days, the base was filled with prey again. On the last day, Yu Shui was even requisitioned by Xia Keyu to dry the fish.

In addition, because he had been following Tang Yi hunting outside, Oxygen was successfully upgraded to level two, and Chenlu even directly upgraded to level three.

The two of them also managed to spend all their money to buy the weapons.

On the other hand, A Tui also successfully identified the rammed earth materials and began planning the construction of defensive fortifications around the gathering place.

Erwuzai also made a breakthrough in the assembly of cannon parts. He actually assembled the unearthed cannon into a similar appearance according to the photos taken by Yu Shui.

Just ...

A few more parts.

But he had no other choice, so on the last day, he followed Yu Shui to help Xia Keyu prepare smoked fish and pickled meat. By the way, he and Yu Shui successfully killed an inferior demon that broke out while they were fishing.

Yu Shui reached level two with the help of experience, and Erwuzai finally had enough energy to use.

"Chief, when are we going to Yunhe Town? There are a few places I can take a look at. I should be able to assemble the cannon!" Erwuzai said, patting his chest.

"It's almost time. As soon as the new soldiers arrive, we will set off immediately."

Tang Yi nodded and made a promise.

Once the newcomers arrive, there will be more than 20 people in the base. Even if the gathering place encounters a small-scale invasion of demons, they will have a way to deal with it.

In this way, he could take Erwuzai to Yunhe Town with confidence.

Chapter 29 New players have officially arrived!

"Bye, coach!"

"Goodbye, goodbye." Chen Lu turned around and waved to the little kid who ran out of the martial arts gym, then seemed to suddenly remember something, and his voice suddenly became louder.

"Remember to come on time tomorrow! If you're late again, I'll stretch you tomorrow!"

"..."

Not hearing the response from Little Radish Head, Chen Lu shook her head slightly, then turned off the lights in the martial arts hall and slowly walked back to the locker room.

After taking a shower and changing clothes, Chen Lu looked at her eight-pack abs in the mirror and posed a few times to show off her beauty.

"Ding dong!"

The phone on the chair beside him suddenly lit up.

Who is looking for me?

Which student forgot to bring something?

He wiped his hair with a towel and picked up his cell phone.

Phosphorus pentoxide: Not online yet, not online yet!!

Phosphorus Pentoxide: We agreed that each person would lead several newcomers! Don't even think about running away!

Looking at this ID which was different from what he expected, Chen Lu was stunned.

Yes, the second batch of internal testing spots will be opened at dawn today.

And because fifteen people came at once, Tang Yi made several new task tokens for "guiding new players" last night.

After all, Tang Yi could only give an opening speech at most, and more things still needed to be taught simply by these old players.

Therefore, the five players decided to split the game equally, with each person taking three. This way, no one would suffer a loss and the rewards would be the same.

He had originally thought that he would still have time to go online after finishing his morning shift.

Could it be that everyone has arrived by now?

Chen Lu threw the towel in her hand into the closet, then picked up her backpack and rushed out of the martial arts hall.

His home was not far from here, about a ten-minute walk, and he took the elevator upstairs.

"Ding dong!"

Phosphorus pentoxide: Is it coming?

Phosphorus Pentoxide: I have three people here, the rest are yours!

Chenlu Bobo: Almost there, we’re home.

Chen Lu rushed into the house, threw her backpack to the head of the bed, then picked up the helmet on the desk and put it directly on her head.

breaking Dawn!

start up! !

As soon as Oxygen saw Chen Lu's resurrection chamber open, he immediately said to the other newcomers:

"You three go find Chenlu, I'll take Rouzong and the others for a walk around the area."

"..."

"Forehead……"

Chen Lu looked at the three newbies, and the three newbies just looked at him.

"How about everyone introduce yourselves first?"

"..."

"Are you all from the breeding farm group?"

Then two of them nodded, while the other shook his head.
