Chapter 17 Kittens are born to be touched

【Fred】

Lu Xi saw the name above the head of the person opposite.

"It's a wonderful music." Fred spoke in an aria-like tone, and his voice was very nice, magnetic, and had the magic of listening to his next sentence.

Lu Xi searched around the map and did not find a "home" belonging to Fred, and these resident NPCs who often live on the farm will have their own residences and take on some of their NPC responsibilities.

For example, Mrs. Millie's home has taken on the role of a "seed store", and even if Lu Xi can't find Mrs. Millie, he can go directly to her house to buy seeds.

Fred doesn't have a "home" mark on the map, but he's not a special NPC like Siris who only appears once in a while.

Lu Xi is sure of this.

"Is there something you're looking for me?" Lu Xi turned off the BGM, looked at Fred, and decided to take the initiative, after all, it didn't sound like this person could talk well.

"There was such a beautiful sound of music coming from the wind, I just followed the footsteps of the wind and listened." Fred bowed gracefully.

Lu Xi nodded, she really didn't know how to speak human words, in fact, she had heard a lot of similar words.

White in the Dragon Hunter Mercenary Regiment sometimes shows such a side, and Dina says that this is a common problem of wind elemental mages.

Because there are a very large number of troubadours in the Wind Elemental Kingdom, the mages and warriors of the Wind Elemental attribute are somewhat misguided.

It is also related to the characteristics of the wind element, for those wind element mages and elemental warriors, they will always hear some information from distant places in the "wind".

Hence the classic phrase "The wind sends a message from afar".

"This is a piece of music made by Mr. Siris, and he gave it to me." Lu Xi tried his best to pull up the topics that could be talked about.

"I know, this is the eleventh movement of Mr. Siris." Fred chuckled and shook his head, "Mr. Siris's music is always like that, full of romance, like being in the hazy moonlight, surrounded by stars. ”

Lu Xi showed a slightly puzzled expression, why could she only hear that this song was very good, so how did she hear what it felt?

But the topic still had to continue, so Lu Xi talked about the task given to him by Mr. Siris...... Other than that, she didn't know what to talk about.

Fred took all of Lu Xi's words, and without touching the functions of the game, these residents always gave Lu Xi a feeling of being too real.

"You don't seem to have a permanent place to live on the farm, why is that?" Lu Xi thought for a moment and asked.

Wouldn't it be a big problem if there was some task to find Fred, and he didn't fix where he was.

"The wind doesn't stop, and so do me." Fred spoke with a very solemn expression, but soon he smiled slyly again.

"But the troubadour will stop for the tavern, for the stories that come from the wind, and for the wine."

Lu Xi had learned not to analyze the meaning of Fred's words, but to ask Fred directly, "What does that mean?" ”

"Hahahaha," Fred smiled heartily, "we don't have a tavern on our farm, Miss Lucy." ”

Lu Xi blinked, so what this meant was that as a troubadour, he should tell the story of those winds to the guests in the "tavern".

Because there was no tavern on the farm, Fred didn't have a permanent place to stay.

Lu Xi thought about it, it's really like this, the leisure farm is a leisure game that focuses on pastoral life, the so-called pastoral life is, of course, planting vegetables and harvesting, taverns or something, there is no necessary function at all, and the restaurant can completely include it.

But for this other world, the tavern is different, and those humans who may never leave the city they live in for the rest of their lives can only listen to those stories from the tavern to learn about the other side of the world.

[Side Quest: Tavern: Fred told you about him, as a troubadour, there is no tavern to live in, please build a tavern on the farm.] 】

[Mission reward: 1000 experience points, unlock more characters, tavern operating income.] 】

Ha? Lu Xi looked at this side quest, and then looked at Fred, what's the matter, can she still open a tavern on the farm?

But the mission is to open a tavern, what materials are needed, and how to open it, I haven't mentioned it at all?!

Where's the mission guide?!

Fred, who didn't know what was going on, smiled back at Lu Xi.

Lu Xi was silent for a moment, expressing sympathy for Fred in his heart that there was no place for him, and then threw this side quest directly to the end of the list that needed to be completed.

The tavern will be left to see when she finishes all the other tasks that need to be done.

"And where do you usually live?" Lu Xi asked curiously, she wasn't sure that Fred would answer herself, this question was like asking those NPCs in the game, what are you doing when the player is not there.

"Wherever the wind passes, I'm there." Fred didn't answer directly.

Lu Xi was not disappointed, but she suddenly thought of Xiao Yuan, Xiao Yuan is also an attribute of the wind element, so will Xiao Yuan also become like a troubadour?

A wolf appeared in his mind, telling a story for everyone with a polite "woo woo woo", and Lu Xi sneered.

In the face of Fred's sudden gaze, Lu Xi hurriedly changed the topic, "Ahem, uh, that, what is the wind?" ”

Lu Xi just said casually, but he didn't expect Fred to suddenly show a relieved expression, and asked back, "Then what do you think the wind is?" Miss Lucy. ”

Lu Xi was stunned, but Fred didn't plan to let Lu Xi answer, and he quickly picked up the conversation himself.

"The wind is the guide, and where there is wind, there will be no adversity; The wind is a companion, and every step on the road is accompanied by the wind......"

"When you sense the wind, it gives you gifts."

Lu Xi seemed to have listened to a large part of the opera performance, and when he heard the last sentence, he came back to his senses, "Gift? What gift? ”

"You can feel it yourself." Fred laughed and handed the crystal ball in his hand to Lu Xi.

Lu Xi suddenly perked up, and according to Fred's guidance, he covered his palm on the crystal ball, and closed his eyes to sense the "wind" around him.

It was a wonderful feeling, unlike prayer, Lu Xi did not enter the state of consciousness becoming pure, but she felt very "noisy".

There seemed to be countless cheerful laughter around her, but it was not obvious, and it could only be vaguely felt, just when Lu Xi wanted to hear those laughter more and more.

She really heard a "hee-hee" laugh.

Opening his eyes, Lu Xi saw a bag of crop seeds suddenly appearing in his hand.

[System Notice: Congratulations to players for unlocking the "Gift of the Wind" function, through the item "Wind Prayer Ball", you can get a random item, limited to three chances per day.] 】

[System Notice: Congratulations to players for obtaining the item "Bag of Wild Rice Seeds" through the "Wind Prayer Ball.] 】

[System Notice: Congratulations to players for unlocking "Wild Rice Seeds" in the Seed Shop.] 】

Looking at the several system notifications that popped up one after another, Lu Xi didn't know which one to pay attention to for a while.

"Gift of the wind" and "prayer" are two different functions.

"Prayer" will determine the final effect according to the content of the most focused thoughts in his mind, and it is not limited to items, but Lu Xi is currently used to obtain materials, and has not done other aspects of "prayer".

"Gifts of the Wind" are random, and they are fixed with various items.

For example, this "wild rice seed" is the seed of rice that Lu Xi has in mind, but in this other world, no one has ever planted it and has not become a fixed food, so it is "wild rice".

Lu Xi had an unreal feeling, she had missed the rice for so long, did she have a chance to realize it now?

After seeing that there was no other reaction, still waiting for Fred, who was still perceiving the wind, Lu Xi hurriedly used the remaining two "Gifts of the Wind" opportunities.

Sure enough, it was random, Lu Xi looked at the two monster feathers that appeared on the ground and pursed his lips.

[System Notice: Congratulations to players who have obtained the item "Red Feather White Feather King Tail Feather Γ—2" by using the "Wind Prayer Ball.] 】

The tail feathers of the Red Feather White Feather King? What is that, Lu Xi gave up after thinking for a long time, forget it, it is enough to get "wild rice seeds".

Lu Xi is content, but she still has some problems, the "Gift of the Wind" has three chances a day, so she has to find Fred every day.

But looking at Fred's elusive appearance, she doesn't seem to be able to find it.

After hearing Lu Xi's concern, Fred smiled and gave the crystal ball in his hand to Lu Xi, "Then, this wind prayer ball will be given to you, Miss Lucy." ”

Lu Xi was taken aback, "What about you?" ”

Isn't it good for her to grab NPC props like this?

Fred didn't mind, he took out another crystal ball very easily, and the movement was skillful as if he had already sent out quite a few of them, "The wind will send me more." ”

Since Fred said so, Lu Xi accepted it with peace of mind, and by the way, he raised the priority of the side quest in the tavern a little higher in his heart.

Ahem, she's really missing something on her farm, like a tavern.

[System Notice: Congratulations to players for obtaining the item "Wind Prayer Ball.] 】

Finally, after triggering the key plot of Fred, Fred said goodbye to Lu Xi, Lu Xi did not keep it at all, and she was also tortured by this kind of NPC who was not good at talking to people.

I only got acquainted with three NPCs, and the afternoon was almost over, although there was still some time before it got dark, but Lu Xi couldn't wait to go back to planting wild rice.

She wants to eat rice!!

Passing by Daulig, who had been fishing in the Air Force, Lu Xi said hello, walked to the seed store again, and bought all the wild rice seeds that had just been unlocked, and Lu Xi returned home.

Unexpectedly, when they returned home, Xiao Yuan and Mao Miao were not farming, but surrounded a corner of the yard, not knowing what they were doing.

Lu Xi recalled for a while, remembering that he seemed to have placed "catnip" there, could it be that the two of them were eating catnip? But they didn't react to catnip before.

Xiao Yuan and Mao Hao had already discovered that Lu Xi had returned, and they all raised their heads to look at Lu Xi, their eyes were excited, but their bodies had no intention of moving at all.

Lu Xi was puzzled, in normal times, these two should have surrounded them a long time ago.

When he got closer, Lu Xi knew why.

She actually saw a cat!

A little orange chubby cat, exactly the same size as the earth, was surrounded by Xiao Yuan and Mao Mao one after the other.

"Ahh Lu Xi exclaimed in surprise and pounced very quickly.

The orange cat was not frightened at all, sitting on the ground as steady as Mount Tai, with a lazy flick of its tail, and it couldn't see the embarrassment of being besieged by Xiao Yuan and Mao Hao at all, even if Lu Xi rushed over with a hungry tiger pounce, it didn't raise its eyelids.

Rather than being besieged by Xiao Yuan and Mao Mao, the orange cat's appearance is more like a king waiting for the audience of inferior subjects, very arrogant.

But the little kitten, it's this arrogant energy that attracts people.

Lu Xi didn't rush up directly to hug the orange cat, she was also afraid that she would suddenly get a paw, although she didn't have to worry about rabies or anything, but it hurt when she was injured.

So after Lu Xi quickly pounced, he stopped at a safe distance, and reached out to touch the orange cat quite carefully.

The orange cat didn't have a bit of a stress reaction, and let Lu Xi's hand touch from the top of its head to the tip of its tail, and when Lu Xi touched it for a while, he slowly stretched his waist, scratched his paws on the ground twice, and slowly raised his feet and walked towards the nearest wall.

Xiao Yuan and Miao's bodies moved, trying to stop the orange cat, but the orange cat didn't pay attention to them at all.

With a kind of agility that did not match his weight at all, he jumped left and right twice, and passed through the interception of Xiaoyuan and Miao, jumped over the low wall, and disappeared.

Xiao Yuan and Mao Hao glanced at each other, their eyes were dazed, they didn't know what was going on, obviously the two of them, they had just surrounded the orange cat here for a long time, why did they suddenly run away.

Lu Xi looked at the expressions of the two cubs, couldn't help laughing, shared the matter of wild rice seeds with the two of them, and used food to attract their attention.

Hearing Lu Xi's introduction, sure enough, Xiao Yuan and Mao Hao didn't care about any orange cats, and immediately ran to the farmland to get busy again, planting all the wild rice seeds in Lu Xi's system backpack.

Lu Xi looked at the direction of the orange cat's departure thoughtfully, and the special guests mentioned in the "Side Quest Special Guest" should refer to the orange cat.

No wonder you want to use catnip to attract it.

However, are the "cats" of another world the same as those on Earth? Lu Xi was skeptical.

I glanced at the cost line task, and there was no hint to complete it, it seems that it is not enough to place catnip once, but also to put it a few more times.

As for things like catnip, you can buy them in the magic pet supply store, although they are limited to one per day, and the price is still very expensive.

I didn't sleep in the afternoon, I was so sleepy, and there was no state in the codeword.
