"Players start to enter the ...... game"
Game Background:
Niujia Village is a small village located in the remote mountainous area of the southwest of Daqianguo, because it is located on a cow-shaped mountain and is called Niujia Village, there are 63 households in the village, 421 people, 852 acres of cultivated land, of which 478 acres belong to the family of Li Shouzheng, as an outsider Zhang Sanniu, only two acres of thin fields on the high ground in the north of the village, plus a thatched house that leaks on all sides, as Zhang Sanniu's second son Zhang Ergou, you were unfortunately born in this family......
"Wow~Wow!"
Struggling to open his eyes, Zhou Ming's first feeling was cold, cold to his bones. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Sweeping his gaze down slightly, he was in a baby, with only a thin layer of linen wrapped around his body, and a few finger-sized holes on it.
"Osmanthus, throw this baby away, we already have a big baby, two babies, we can't afford to raise them. A middle-aged man next to him said with a sad face.
Zhou Ming chuckled in his heart, and suddenly stopped crying, throw, numb, I was just born, you want to throw me?
How else to play this game?
Two lines of bead-like teardrops flowed from the eyes of the thin woman holding the baby in her arms, hit Zhou Ming's face, and said with a whimper: "In charge, Ah Da is only two years old, can he become an adult in the future, Xiao Er is also a man, he can work for the family when he is older, and he can also add children and grandchildren to you, let's keep him." ”
The middle-aged man pondered for a while, nodded silently, and brought over a large pottery bowl with a missing corner resting on the edge of the threshold, and handed it to the thin woman: "Osmanthus, eat this bowl of noodles, put two eggs in it, and after eating, feed Xiao Er some milk." ”
The woman rolled up her sleeves and wiped the drops of water from the corners of her eyes, hugged the baby in her arms tighter, took the clay bowl, and ate it in a big gulp.
The middle-aged man sighed, picked up the hoe that was placed aside, and walked towards the mountain with a somewhat awkward step.
Three days later, after a brief discussion, the middle-aged couple named Zhou Ming - Zhang Ergou, because Zhou Ming's two-year-old brother was called Zhang Dagou, and he happened to take it down.
……
In the blink of an eye, three years have passed.
At the end of the village in Niujia Village, there is an extra little kid running around with a bare butt.
Tired of running, the little kid sat on the big stone at the head of the village, and silently clicked on the game panel in his mind-
Player character: Zhang Ergou
Property: 0
Status: 0
Prestige: 0
Mate: 0
Descendants: 0
Lifespan: 3
Overall achievements: 3
Helplessly closing the panel and looking at the sky speechlessly, Zhou Ming felt a little cryless in his heart.
It's been three years, and he has only learned to walk now because of a few colds and flu in the middle, if it weren't for his hard life, he almost gameover in advance.
"How can you continue to play this game, it's so difficult to start with, not to mention 500 achievement points, it's good to be able to mix to 50 points!"
Zhou Ming couldn't stop complaining, if the protagonist in other novels had already begun to beat ordinary geniuses at the age of three, he had risen strongly at the age of six to dominate one side, and at the age of sixteen, he had already swept the whole map and had to consider changing the copy, how could he be so miserable?
Looking up at his little arms and legs again, Zhou Ming suppressed the unrealistic thoughts in his heart.
At present, he can't even hold a hoe, and a burst of influenza may take him away.
"Oh no, no! Zhang Sanniu's big dog is drowning!"
"Go to the river and save people!"
"Zhang Sanniu, your son is drowning!"
"Go and call Zhang Sanniu over. ”
A commotion suddenly came from the side of the river at the head of the village, and several villagers shouted in panic.
Zhou Ming sighed in his heart, opened his calves and ran towards the river, and after a while, he saw the child with a round belly lying motionless on the bank - his brother Zhang Dagou.
"Ah Da, big dog, my son! Why are you disobedient, tell you not to go to the river to catch fish and shrimp, you want to go!" Mother Osmanthus hugged the big dog whose body was already stiff and cried to death, and his father Zhang Sanniu, who heard the news, saw this scene and looked stunned, and the hoe on his shoulder fell to the ground weakly.
Two days later, except for a small grave on the mountainside north of the village, life returned to normal.
Zhou Ming was a little surprised to find that after his brother left, the four portions of food that the family originally needed to prepare for each meal became a larger number of three, and even in order to keep the only remaining son, Zhou Ming was often able to eat enough, and his brother's clothes were also changed to be draped on his body after being smaller......
At the age of five, Zhou Ming, who was well cared for, was able to work in the fields with a small hoe, and occasionally went up the mountain to dig out birds' nests, went to the fields to dig up some sweet grass roots that tasted like sugar cane, and sometimes he was lucky enough to pick up pheasants that had been injured by hunters, which also became one of his few good opportunities to replenish nutrition.
When she was six years old, her mother Osmanthus became pregnant again.
This has cast another layer of gloom over poor families whose conditions have been improved.
Pregnant in October, the baby croaked to the ground, Zhou Ming smiled very happily, he had a cute little sister.
But one night, the sound of a fierce quarrel woke up Zhou Ming, who was sleeping soundly.
"Master, please don't throw her, it's nothing for us to be tired and tired, she's just a child who has just been born!" the woman begged bitterly.
"This child was born to someone else, why did you raise her so big for nothing?
"But...... But she's the meat that fell from my body, and I can't bear it!" the woman cried.
"You think I'm reluctant, but one more mouth is one more burden, and our family's two acres of land can't afford to raise so many mouths!" the man also cried.
"Wouldn't it be okay for me to eat less and use less?" said the woman, gritting her teeth.
"No, you still have to raise this family with me!"
The man shook his hand, snatched the baby girl from the woman's arms, broke free from the woman's desperate pull, and ran out of the house without looking back.
On the side, Zhou Ming, who was secretly watching all this, looked at the thatch on the roof in a daze, but found that he didn't have the courage to get up and prevent all this from happening.
Yes, the output of two acres of thin land has made the family's conditions poor to the point of feeding a maximum of three people.
Of course, his father Zhang Sanniu can also go to the house of Li Shouzheng, the head of the house, as a tenant farmer, and rent one or two acres of good land.
However, Li Shouzheng, the governor of the village, is not a philanthropist, and the 70 percent of the land rent does not refer to 70 percent of the random yield of land crops every year, but to pay 70 percent of the normal year's output as long as the tenant rents the land regardless of drought or flood, even if the tenant sells his wife, children, and young daughters.
It is with this in mind that no matter how difficult the family is, Zhang Sanniu did not think of renting the land of Li Shouzheng's family.
The next morning, the tired father came back with a body of dew and sat weakly at the door of the house. Mother Osmanthus got up from the bed and prepared breakfast for the family of three as usual.
……
In the blink of an eye, another five years have passed.
Mother Osmanthus left, because of a severe wind chill, after exhausting the few savings in the family, she died.
When he was thirteen years old, his father Zhang Sanniu also left, perhaps because of overwork, or because he missed his mother too much, and he also died.
Leaving only yourself alone.
His parents are gone, Zhou Ming breathed a sigh of relief, he has been in this game for so long, he has not been able to do anything famous if he wants to make a name for himself, he wants to make inventions and create, but as a result, the chemical equations of steelmaking and ironmaking, glass and cement have been forgotten, of course, he can find out slowly by groping around, but there is only a broken grass house and a home with two acres of thin land, so what resources does he have to engage in these money-burning research.
As a high-achieving student who has gone to college, he still understands the three elements of farming: water, fertilizer and temperature, coupled with scientific breeding, reasonable dense planting, regular weeding, and scientific pest control, it is difficult to farm without high yield.
So, on his own two acres of thin land, Zhou Ming carried out a series of experiments, the first two years almost no harvest, almost starved himself to death, the second two years of early results, land output increased by 10%.
In the fifth year, that is, when Zhou Ming was eighteen years old, because of the proper planting method and the fact that God was more cooperative with the wind and rain, for the first time, Zhou Ming's two acres of thin land unexpectedly obtained a bumper harvest, and the output was more than the most fertile irrigated land of Li Shouzheng's family, which caused a sensation in the whole village.
Zhou Ming can raise his head when he walks, and some matchmakers have also begun to come to Zhou Ming's house to inquire about the situation under the entrustment of well-intentioned people.
Everything is developing in a good direction, Zhou Ming also plans to build a better wooden house in two years, save a little money to marry a daughter-in-law from the past, and have three sons and two daughters, and his life will be more complete.
However, one day, after going to a small family, Zhou Ming, who couldn't bear to beg and begged, agreed to teach him his top-secret farming skills.
One spread ten, ten spread hundreds, and for a while, the villagers in the whole village invited Zhou Ming over, and under the greeting of good wine and meat, they begged him to teach him some farming experience, and Zhou Ming agreed one by one.
A few days later, late one night, the door of Zhou Ming's house was kicked open like tatters, and several mysterious people rushed into the house, raised the knives, axes and clubs in their hands, and slashed at the figure on the bed.
It wasn't until the bloody figure on the ground could no longer make the slightest movement, and a few mysterious people lit a fire and watched the broken thatched house burn out, and then walked away.
