Chapter 138: A Reward from the Adventure Society
"Come on, Comrade Xiao Hei, I'll accompany you to visit our beautiful stepping stone village."
"Then thank you village chief! I'll be sure to write as it is. ”
After sending Li'er Xiang back first, Li Ze took Xiao Hei to climb to the highest point of the stepping stone.
At the highest point of the stepping stone, there is a simple watchtower, which can be used to see not only the entire village, but also a few miles outside the village.
Standing on the watchtower and glancing around the stepping stone village, Blackie began his work: yelling at the bottle.
"It's a quiet and peaceful village, and although it's a bit of a decline, it's beautiful, farmland, and the people who live here are quite rich."
"But the size of this village is really small, and from my point of view, there are dozens of houses in the center of the village, most of which are low-rise bungalows."
"The north side of the village is beautiful and beautiful, and it looks like fertile soil, but not a single field has been developed. Presumably because the north of Stepping Stone Village is outside the country, and that is the territory of the monsters, right? ”
"So if you come to Stepping Stone Village, don't head north of the village until you're well prepared, lest you be attacked by terrifying monsters."
Xiao Hei kept talking to the bottle, listening to the tone as if he was writing a manuscript?
Li Ze was a little confused and asked, "What are you?" ”
Xiao Hei closed the mouth of the bottle with his hand, and then replied, "I'm writing." ”
"Writing? You're not talking to the bottle? ”
"Oh, I can only read words, not write......"
"What?" Li Ze, who was taken aback, couldn't help but interject, "Huh? A journalist who can't write? Still writing? ”
"Isn't that weird?" I saw Xiao Hei turn the bottle upside down, and then something shook out of the bottle, squirming and squirming.
Xiao Hei pointed to the things that were shaken out and said, "With this inkworm, I can't write but can write." ”
I saw that what shook out of the bottle was a black fat worm, and Xiao Hei put the worm on the notebook, crawling around, crawling around......
And the amazing thing is: where the inkworms crawled, there were words!
It turns out that the inkworm is also a kind of monster, weak but rare, and basically only circulated among some writers.
This inkworm can record the owner's words, and then secrete ink to form words on the paper, which is very convenient.
After listening to Xiao Hei's introduction, Li Ze could only shake his head and say, "It means that there are still voice input methods in this era?" ”
It seems that in this world, there are many, many things that Li Ze doesn't understand.
Accompany Xiao Hei to continue to visit the village, this small village is not time-consuming and effortless, but Li Ze's mood is getting worse and worse.
Because Xiao Hei has been using the voice input method, and Xiao Hei's writing has been listened to by Li Ze.
"The road is very narrow, and there are all kinds of hollows in the dirt road, so adventurers on horseback must be careful not to let their horses stumble when passing by."
"There's only one bakery in the whole village, hell for foodies."
"The reception capacity of a small hotel must be very limited, so it is recommended that adventurers be prepared to sleep in the open before coming, so as not to run out of rooms in the hotel."
"There is a lack of infrastructure, only a blacksmith shop and no weapons or armor shop."
"There is no jewellery shop, no florist, not even a tavern! Oh my God, a place without a tavern is a nightmare for adventurers. ”
Listening to Xiao Hei's various complaints, do you think Li Ze can be in a good mood?
Seeing that Xiao Hei had blackened the stepping stone village all over the place, Li Ze finally couldn't help it.
Temporarily blocking the bottle, Li Ze said dissatisfiedly: "Brother! Although it is true that the Stepping Stones Village is a little imperfect now, we are also working hard to improve it...... It's too much for you to write like this! ”
"When you say that, the adventurers are scared away by your magazine, so you can give us a good word."
Li Ze was a sensible person, took out a small bag from his arms and handed it to Xiao Hei.
"It's a little greeting, not ......"
Li Ze is well aware of the importance of the reporter's report to the development of a local tourism industry, so he should be reasonable and give the red envelope that should be given.
However, this time Li Ze hit a nail.
I saw that Xiao Hei, who was already dark-skinned, put on a black face, and refused with righteous words: "I'm sorry Lord Li Ze, although my Xiao Hei is just a poor reporter, I also have professional ethics!" ”
"As a frontline journalist, I have to be honest about everything I see! I won't smear anyone with prejudice, but I will never take bribes and write false reports against my will! ”
"Because, I'm a real journalist!"
Bang Bang Bang!
Impressed by Xiao Hei's righteousness, Li Ze couldn't help but applaud, very ashamed, Li Ze himself was no longer the pure boy as snow.
Although Xiao Hei rejected Li Ze's red envelope, Li Ze admired Xiao Hei instead.
Such a journalist comrade with professional ethics is a good comrade!
took Xiao Hei to the last bit of the journey, and Xiao Hei continued to truthfully record his observations and opinions with the voice input method.
Much of it is criticism of the poor infrastructure in Stepping Stones, but there are also some praise and optimism about the future.
And when bidding farewell to Xiao Hei at the end, Li Ze said very seriously: "I'll be honest with you, Comrade Xiao Hei." The current stepping stone village is indeed a small village, and I have passed through many villages along the way, and the stepping stone village is definitely the least conspicuous one of them. ”
"But our stepping stone village is the place where the true dragon awakens, the northern frontier of the kingdom, the supply depot for adventurers, and the outpost of the kingdom's territory."
"I hope you'll come back to our Stepping Stones Village after a while. I can assure you that the stepping stone village at that time will definitely change dramatically, and it will definitely surprise you. ”
"Perhaps, Stepping Stones Village will become the best adventure mecca in the country."
"You can look forward to it."
Xiao Hei showed his white teeth and said with a smile: "I believe in Master Li Ze!" Stepping Stone Village does have a unique advantage when it comes to adventure. I also believe that Master Li Ze can carry forward this advantage! ”
Sending off Xiao Hei, Li Ze came to the bulletin board of the Adventurers' Guild.
This billboard is indeed an artifact, check the bulletin board, it shows that the quest has been completed, and you have obtained 500 dinars, which is already 20 Adventurers' Guild town points.
500 dinars and town points for the Adventurers' Guild, which is a real-life benefit.
And Cairo-kun also gave a new message at this time: complete the task and get 20 popularity points.
Right now, the popularity of Dragon's Stepping Stone Village is: 70 points.
The reward of 500 dinars will be sent the next time the Adventurers' Guild comes. Li Ze paid 500 dinars for the five team members, and now he just paid off.
20 town points will be registered, and you can use them if you get a certain amount.
The first simple task is now officially completed.
Victorious in terms of combat adventure, Li Ze then began to ponder internal affairs.
