Chapter 9: Serial Quests (Part II)
"Knock knock." Li Heng knocked on the door of the wooden house, but no one answered, so Li Heng knocked a few times again, and then asked, "Is anyone there?"
But no one answered, Li Heng tried a few more times without giving up, but the results were all the same, just as Li Heng was about to leave in frustration, a vigilant voice came from behind him. "What are you doing at my doorstep?"
Li Heng turned his head to see that behind him was a middle-aged man wearing a leather coat, carrying a bow and arrows behind him, and carrying some animal corpses in his hands.
As soon as Li Heng saw his dress, he knew that he must not be a carpenter, so he quickly explained: "I came to find a carpenter, and when I saw a hut here, I came to take a look." You are? ”
"Oh, it turned out that I was looking for Lao Qin, but you are in the wrong place, Lao Qin lives on the other side of the forest." The middle-aged man said, but he didn't answer Li Heng's question.
"Oh, then, I'll go first. After taking the fishing rod, I have to go to the hunters and farmers. Li Heng didn't mind, after he finished talking to the middle-aged man, he was ready to leave.
"Wait, what are you doing with so many people?" Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man stopped him.
Li Heng replied: "Uncle Jin asked me to come to them to find ingredients."
The middle-aged man nodded: "Then you come and sit first, I'll clean these up first and teach you how to make traps."
Li Heng nodded hurriedly, and from his dress, Li Heng recognized that he should be a hunter.
After the hunter finished dealing with his prey, he taught Li Heng the making of the trap, so Li Heng owed the hunter another 10,000 prey.
Holding the psychology that there are more lice and not being afraid of itching, Li Heng went to the carpenter's house again, and then he got the fishing rod and casually took on the task of cutting down 300,000 trees and replanting 300,000 trees, and learned the three skills of logging, replanting, and carpentry.
In addition, he also received a carpenter's task, his axe was broken, and he asked him to go to Zhou Yi to get a new axe for him.
Next, Li Heng went to the farm again and learned to reclaim and plant at the cost of cultivating 20,000 acres of land.
In addition, Li Heng also received the task of asking him to go to Aunt Wang to get the clothes of the scarecrow.
When Li Heng came out of Aunt Wang, he found that he had taken over all the tasks of the novice village regarding the sub-professional skills, but this also made him in debt.
After receiving the tailor's task from Aunt Wang, Li Heng returned to the blacksmith shop and prepared to ask Zhou Yi for the carpenter's logging axe.
But what he didn't expect was that Zhou Yi drove him out directly after seeing him: "Don't come back until the task is completed."
It can be seen that his anger towards Li Heng has not subsided.
Helpless, Li Heng had no choice but to come out of the blacksmith shop, ready to do the task, when he saw a street corner, he finally remembered Guo Tulai, who was still hungry in the corner.
Li Heng, who almost forgot him, was very embarrassed, so he hurried back to the door of the restaurant, but there he saw a scene that broke his heart, Guo Tu had just walked out of the golden fat man's restaurant.
He was still holding a toothpick in his hand, and with the other hand, he waved goodbye to the golden fat man: "No need to send ......"
However, the waving hand he waved after seeing Li Heng stopped, and then threw the toothpick in his hand as if he had encountered a flood beast.
smiled at Li Heng embarrassedly, and then returned to the corner and sat down: "Come, come and sit."
After sitting down, he waved his hand at Li Heng and asked him to go over as well.
Li Heng hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to walk over, but there was no expression on his face.
Looking at Li Heng's appearance, Guo Tu sighed: "Do you know what I used to do?"
But Li Heng didn't have the slightest intention to answer what he meant.
Guo Tu was not embarrassed, but asked and answered himself: "I used to be a librarian, and at that time there was a big library in the village, and people who were generally okay would read books there.
And I, too, live on the money they give when they read books. But since the fire, everything is gone.
The library burned down and I lost my job, but I couldn't do much except read and write, so I had to live in the village.
Eat a mixed meal every day. But how can I, as a reader, stand it?
So after you adventurers appeared, I got paid for teaching you to read and write, and although it wasn't much, it always kept me through for a while, so that I would feel better.
In fact, the people in the village knew about my situation, so they could help if they could, so as long as someone needed to read and write, they would push it on me.
But I didn't expect you adventurers to be so disinterested in learning, and you're the only one looking for me now. ”
Li Heng nodded: "I see."
"Forget it, don't say so much, although I may have cheated you, but I hope you don't mind, it's a big deal that I teach some other languages, which is my compensation for you, what do you think?" Guo Tu said.
Li Heng nodded excitedly, the dissatisfaction just now had long been forgotten by him, since he could learn more words, he would not be at a loss.
"Okay, since you agreed, then I'll teach you some elven language and goblin language, not for me to blow it to you, if you want to say that you know the most foreign languages in the village, then I know the most." Guo Tu patted a few of you on the shoulder and said.
"Really, thank you then." Li Heng was even more grateful to Guo Tulai.
"Okay, let's start learning now." Guo Tu said, so he found a stick and wrote on the ground, after all, both of them were poor and couldn't afford pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Maybe it was out of the desire to repay Lin Bing, so Li Heng studied very seriously.
He and Guo Tu learned and taught one by one, and before they knew it, it was already dark.
Li Heng, who couldn't study anymore, said goodbye to Guo Tu after leaving Guo Tu some food, went to the mine, and began to dig mines.
Time flies, and while Li Heng was busy completing tasks and learning words, the first person to walk out of the novice village appeared among the players on the twenty-fifth day.
With the advent of the first person, more and more people have come out of the novice village.
But this has nothing to do with Li Heng, he has just been busy completing the task, so he has no time to level up at all.
A month after the game opened, Li Heng had learned more than a hundred words, and he could see some things in the diary that Zhou Yi gave him, but that alone did not help his mining, and he still needed to continue learning.
However, due to the exhaustion of the nutrient solution, Li Heng also quit the game for the first time, and when he finished eating, Li Xue also came back.
The brother and sister didn't talk much, Li Xue went directly to the refrigerator to pick up the food left by Li Heng, and then began to eat.
