On Wednesday of the second week of June, Kong Xiuying took leave in the afternoon and entered the 'dream game'.

Kong Xiuying's salary also includes performance awards and attendance awards, and performance awards are related to workload; The workload, with her work efficiency, can definitely be completed; If you take a leave of absence in the current month, the attendance bonus will be gone. Her monthly salary is about 5,000 yuan, and the full attendance bonus is 300 yuan per month. She is now anxious to seize the time and improve her mental power so that she can protect herself in the game; So as long as she can ask for leave, she won't consider taking the attendance award; If it weren't for asking for too much leave, the company wouldn't agree, she would rather take a few more days off and deduct her salary casually.

On the other hand, if she wants to support herself, she must have a job; So she doesn't have the conditions to give up the job in front of her and go to the 'dream game' wholeheartedly. After entering the game on Wednesday afternoon, Kong Xiuying did not go to the clothing store, but went directly to the sheep ranch to prepare for the work of herding sheep; But when she asked about the work situation, she didn't expect it.

Wages are calculated according to the number of sheep grazing; The salary of a sheep for every half day is 1 copper coin, if the sheep dies accidentally, 5 copper coins should be compensated to the sheep farm, and if the sheep is bitten, one copper coin for half a day will be deducted; According to the number of sheep that the shepherd intends to graze, each sheep must be handed over to the sheep farm in advance and 5 copper coins as a risk deposit.

Kong Xiuying didn't have a single copper coin on her body now, so she had to turn to a clothing store and continue to work, earning 2 silver coins in one afternoon. On Saturday afternoon, Kong Xiuying officially went to work on the sheep farm.

After she went to the sheep farm, considering that she was not familiar with the situation of sheep herding, she only took five copper coins from the clothing shop, and planned to take a sheep to put it in front of her; Since she knew that this was a practice of mental power, it must be different from ordinary grazing; It's better to be safe and cautious.

He came to the sheep farm and handed over 5 copper coins to the owner of the sheep and asked to graze a sheep; When the boss handed over the sheep to her, he told her, "A person with a mental power of 6 can graze up to two sheep in this pasture, and if there are too many, he will not be able to greet them; When the mental power value is 6, the effective distance of the mental power command to the sheep is 1 meter, and the mental power value in the future, each additional value, the effective distance of the mental power command is increased by 0.5 meters, and the number of sheep can also be increased by another one. The boss gave Kong Xiuying a thin wooden stick about 1.2 meters long and told her: "The wooden stick is mainly used to drive sheep when the sheep do not obey the command. The wolves here act alone. ”

These words frightened Kong Xiuying, can she beat a wolf? However, if you think about your right-handed style, the proficiency of the primary boxing technique has reached 100%, and the left-handed style has also reached a certain level of proficiency; I think I can fight a dozen wolves; Not to mention that there is a wooden stick in his hand.

She is now in a hurry to improve her mental strength, so she has to fight; Just in case something happens to her when the player enters the 'Mental Force Field Space' game scene, she knows that mental power is not something that can be reached overnight, so she should hurry up and exercise her mental power. Her current mental power is low, if she wants to wait until she does physical work and improves her mental power value to 8, and then she will learn intermediate martial arts in order to deal with wolves, then I don't know when it will take.

Due to the nature of Kong Xiuying's work, she can't enter the dream game a few times a week, and the players in the 'dream game' are improving every day; she is now in urgent need of competing with the gamers for time, so she doesn't dare to think about it, and she must first practice the left hand of the lady's boxing before going to herd sheep.

To be honest, she sometimes regretted that after entering the 'novice village', she should have directly chosen to herd sheep; But now that she thinks about the sheep herding, she will encounter wolves, and she is relieved, if she doesn't know martial arts, when she encounters wolves, she can only be helpless, and she will definitely not be able to mix in the pasture. Kong Xiuying asked the boss: "What will happen if I am bitten to death by a wolf in the game?" ”

The boss replied: "If the player is bitten to death by a wolf in the game, he must reapply for a game account, and the player's mental power will also be damaged to a certain extent." In addition, the application for new game accounts has been temporarily suspended, so I hope you will carefully protect your game account. Kong Xiuying asked the boss again: "Is this kind of mental damage serious?" Can it be restored later? The boss said: "This kind of mental damage varies from person to person; It is an injury that can be recovered gradually. ”

The boss told her the essentials of herding sheep: "If you want to make the sheep listen to the command, you have to look at the head of the sheep and concentrate on giving instructions to the sheep in your mind. If the instructions you give to the sheep are confused, the sheep will turn around and come to you, so just stop giving mental commands first. ”

At the same time, the boss told Kong Xiuying: "Every time you herd sheep, you must ensure that the sheep are full; If the sheep do not have enough to eat, the salary of one copper coin per sheep will be deducted; There is a lot of grass on the grassland, and there should be no problem for the sheep to be full. The way to observe that the sheep is full is that the sheep does not want to leave, but just wants to lie down, then leave it alone, and when it is time to get off work, the sheep will get up and go back. ”

Kong Xiuying took a wooden stick and drove the only sheep unfamiliarly, out of the sheep pasture, to the pasture outside the sheep pasture, and started her sheep herding career; The road from the pasture to the pasture was 100 meters, and the sheep led the way. The meadows here have a peculiarity, each meadow is a small patch, and that may be the place where lone wolves haunt.

The plain is as far as the eye can see, and you can see other people, herding cattle or sheep; Sheep herders are generally 3 or 4 sheep per person, and cattle herders are seen to have two sheep at most; These people were all herded in their own ways, and no one got together to herd their herds. Kong Xiuying followed the sheep to the pasture, and the sheep did not go to find grass to eat, but walked around; Fortunately, the sheep did not walk fast, so she did not have to run to catch the sheep. Kong Xiuying remembered that there were wolves that would eat sheep, so she only let the sheep graze on the grass that was not next to the bushes.

Kong Xiuying was optimistic about a place and began to try to give orders to the sheep from his mind to drive the sheep there; If the sheep strayed, she would take a stick and block it from the side. If the sheep is going in the right direction, she stops, looks at the head of the sheep and concentrates, commands the sheep in her mind, and then walks a few steps briskly to keep up with the sheep's footsteps; The reason why she had to stand still and then give instructions to the sheep was because she felt that if she was in the marching state, she would not be able to concentrate calmly and effectively, and she would not be able to effectively give mental commands to the sheep.

At first, she was still worried about whether the sheep could understand the instructions she gave to the sheep, but when it stood quietly beside the sheep and silently recited to the sheep's head in her mind: "Go forward." No matter where the sheep's head turns, the sheep sometimes does as she commands to go straight in front of the body.

Although the success rate of her instructions was not high at first, it had already given her confidence in herself; Slowly, the chances of her orders being executed became higher and higher. After about half an hour, Kong Xiuying was familiar with the trick of giving mental power instructions to the sheep; The mental power instructions she gave to the sheep in a static state were basically effective instructions.

After observing her, she found that every ten steps the sheep had to give another command, otherwise the sheep would wander around; When the sheep go to the designated meadow, they have to give another order to let the sheep eat grass, otherwise the sheep will only circle around the grass but will not eat grass.
