Chapter 77: Not Short of Money, But Like Money
Chestnut Flower was uneasy, and this uneasiness was that the farm was destroyed in front of her eyes, but in an instant, another farm suddenly rose from the ground.
She couldn't tell what the truth was, so she had to pretend that she didn't know anything, just an ordinary slave on the farm who survived by chance with a child.
I completely hide the fact that I have seen the murderer in my heart.
The adults who called themselves Rowem were not suspicious of her identity—or rather, they were so strange that they were doll dummies, and they had no ability to think in doubt.
Chestnut had seen the puppeteers in the town, and she was proud of her "fake" puppet technique, which was controlled by the puppeteer to make human movements, just like Rowem who suddenly appeared in front of her.
After Lihua saw Lu Xi, she told the story in detail without concealment, including the situation of Rowem she met, and how the "Spirit Farm" was formed in front of her eyes.
Lu Xi was a little surprised, in Lihua's mouth, Luo Weimu, who appeared at the beginning, did not have much change in expression, and kept a smiling face, even if he was saying the word "festival mourning" to Lihua.
It's no wonder that Chestnut is afraid, when someone says to you, "Your whole family is dead, please mourn", if you have a charitable smile on your face, you are also afraid.
Chestnut also told Lu Xi that she had also tried to have a few words later, but the more she said, the longer the "Lord Rowem" smiled and was silent before answering.
Sometimes Chestnut thought that this question should not be asked, and Rowem suddenly opened his mouth to answer the first question Chestnut asked before, and Chestnut couldn't even remember what she asked.
Lu Xi can understand Chestnut Blossom's feelings very well, she has experienced it once, because her behavior is beyond the preset program of the system, so these farm NPCs have fallen into procedural disorder.
Even in the eyes of Lu Xi, who knew the truth, that scene still shocked her, let alone chestnut tweed.
Then Rowem said to Chestnut, "There is a small problem on the farm that needs to be repaired, you can temporarily stay at the keeper's house outside the farm, Miss Lucy will be here soon." ”
As she said this, Chestnut took the children and followed Rowem all the way from under the ruins to the gate of the farm.
With each step, a ruin changed in the light, turning into an intact strange house, and in turn, various people walked into the new house, looking in the direction of the chestnut blossom with the same expression as Rowem.
Rowem didn't let Chestnut Blossom stay, but let Chestnut Blossom breathe a sigh of relief, in her eyes, the farm at this time was tantamount to a hell full of devils and demons.
Chestnut Flower has seen Midori, but Middley has no impression of Chestnut Flower, and the surviving Middley family gives Chestnut Flower a sense of security.
As for joining the Midori family, it is Chestnut's personal plan, it is really difficult for her to survive alone with four children, and she needs to live with people.
After living in fear for more than three months, Chestnut finally heard the summons of "Miss Lucy", she was skeptical, after all, she had never believed in Rowem, let alone the people Rowem brought.
But after seeing Lu Xi with her own eyes, Chestnut Hua believed that she had seen Mrs. Charlotte many times, and even saw the portrait of Mrs. Charlotte when she was young.
Miss Lucy and Mrs. Charlotte look similar, not to say seventy percent, but three or five points, especially some changes in expression, which are even more similar.
The most important thing is that the location of the Spiritual Farm is remote and isolated, and it is impossible for Chestnut Flower to leave the Spiritual Farm alone to find other nobles to tell her about it, and no one will listen to her as a farm slave.
It was found that he had stolen out of the farm, and he would be directly executed, and Miss Lucy in front of him was already Chestnut's only choice.
Lu Xi only felt that a haze hidden in the shadows had covered him, and someone wanted to make a move on "Miss Lucy", and he had already done so.
After learning that she, "Miss Lucy", had appeared intact at the Spiritual Farm, I am afraid that she would not give up easily, and it has been a month since she returned.
I'm afraid the news that should be spread is almost all delivered.
Lu Xi closed her eyes peacefully, it doesn't matter, don't be afraid, she has a golden finger.
"Miss Lucy?" Lihua looked up to see Lu Xi.
Lu Xi opened his eyes and sighed, knowing that lying flat was not flat, "You stay on the farm for the time being." ”
The appearance of the murderer is such an important matter, Lu Xi will not let it go, even if he can't do anything, but it is good to know who the enemy is in advance, and it is good to be prepared.
There are many types of elemental artifacts from other worlds, and one of them is one that can turn the scene in a person's mind into a picture and display it.
It's just that this kind of elemental magic weapon will cause damage to people's spirits, and it will take a long time to recuperate after using it once, and even if the projected scene is too "rich", it will directly damage the brain and make people stupid.
Of course, if it is used by an elemental mage, then the impact is very small, and on the one hand, it is also related to the mental state of the person itself.
Lu Xi doesn't have this kind of thing, but Xiuge is here, she can ask Xiuge if he has a way.
Just looking up at the sky, Xiuge had just run out on a white-feathered Pegasus to clean up the monsters, and he didn't know when he would come back.
Lu Xi asked Midori's family to go back, leaving Chestnut Flower alone, fortunately, they have been living together for four months, and the three children who are not very bright have been familiar with Middlely's original wife Ansha, and there is no problem in leaving Chestnut Flower.
Needless to say, the infant child was originally fed with slurry water, and Ansa could be completely replaced.
Seeing this, Lu Xi couldn't help but ask Lihua again, "Do you have any plans in the future, if you want, you can go back to the farm and continue your nursery house." ”
But the location, you have to go to Xinwa Village, there is no place in the farm, let Cross and them build one more house.
Chestnut Hua hesitated for a moment, Lu Xi had already told her that she would use the elemental magic weapon to extract her memories so that she could wait on the farm with peace of mind.
Of course, the consequences Lu Xi has also made it clear that Lihua is voluntary, she was originally an orphan girl, and she lived on the farm after being rescued by Mrs. Charlotte, and everyone on the farm was like her relatives, and her relatives died, and she did not hesitate to die on the spot in order to avenge the murderer.
Hearing Miss Lucy's question, it was to ask about her future plans, and Chestnut couldn't react a little, as if she was in a serious battle, and someone next to her suddenly asked what she wanted to eat at night.
It feels very disconnected - Lu Xi feels normal, but there may be an accident, and it is not certain to die, it must be more important to discuss the future.
After a moment's hesitation, Chestnut thought about Miss Lucy's question, she knew that her role might be to provide Miss Lucy with the appearance of an enemy, and then she would be useless.
Miss Lucy gave her two options to stay on the farm, but it also gave her a reason to leave the Midori family, she had joined the Midori family for self-preservation, and now Miss Lucy was willing to give her back her freedom.
But after thinking about it, Chestnut still shook her head, "Miss Lucy, no need. ”
During this time, living with the Midori family, Lihua felt very relaxed, there was no drama of two wives "competing for favor", and their family was more like a relationship of supporting each other's life.
It's not quite appropriate, in fact, Chestnut Flower hasn't slept with Midoli yet—Midoli really doesn't want children anymore.
But he still saw the pity of those children and agreed to the addition of chestnut flowers.
Now every day, Chestnut can hand over a few children to the lame sister to watch, follow them out to work, and then come home at night.
With such a large area of farmland, even if it is just picking up those crops that fall on the ground every day, it is enough for the Midori family to feed every meal.
Or maybe it's because Chestnut has actually put her feelings for the rest of the farm on the Midoli family.
Lu Xi nodded, and did not persuade again, she was worried that Lihua would have to commit herself to Midoli for revenge, so she was given the opportunity to leave and regain her freedom, but she already regarded the other party as family, so naturally she didn't say anything anymore.
Xiuge never showed signs of coming back, so Lu Xi didn't wait for him anymore, called Xiao Yuan and Mao Hao, who were farming, and after lunch, Lihua smelled the fragrance on the side, and couldn't help swallowing saliva many times.
Lu Xi gave her a share of the food, and Lihua was very moved, and then refused.
"It's okay, let's eat, it was originally for another person, but he probably wasn't going to go home, and the rest was a waste."
Li Hua took it cautiously, looking at Lu Xi's expression with a little nostalgia, in her eyes, Mrs. Charlotte was like this.
It's just that Mrs. Charlotte is actually more compassionate, and Miss Lucy is more approachable.
This familiarity made Chestnut couldn't help but say a few more words, it was about Rowem and them, "Miss Lucy, the slave thinks, Lord Rowem, they can't be trusted. ”
"They don't look like humans!"
Although it seems that Lord Rowem can already have a normal expression, laughing when he should laugh, being serious when he should be serious, and showing a sad look when he should mourn.
But the impression of the first meeting is deeply imprinted in the heart of Chestnut Flower, especially in the second time I see this change, an unknown creature is imitating humans, and more and more like human fear, I can't help but appear in the bottom of Chestnut Flower's heart.
Lu Xi was silent for a moment, she knew these things much better than Lihua, but compared to what Lihua said was "not human-like", Lu Xi was more worried about them becoming "more human-like".
If it were replaced by a real aristocratic lady, like the attitude of these farm residents, they would all have to be driven out of the farm, especially the craftsman Uga, a dignified noble lady, or the owner of the farm, why should he treat him coldly?
But Lu Xi adapted well and didn't get angry because of it, or rather, the only thing that made her angry was that what she wanted to do was treated coldly, but she wasn't angry because of a little attitude problem, and she wasn't really from a "human being".
On the one hand, it is clear that they are farm dweller NPCs with fixed programmed personalities, and the game program restricts their behavior, and on the other hand, it is precisely because of their attitude that Lu Xi can maintain a calm mind and not indulge in this world.
Think about it, in a crowd that sees you and only kneels down for you, offering all the good things to you, respecting you and fearing you, how can you not indulge in it?
Of course, you can always meet a group of farm dwellers NPCs who are neither humble nor arrogant to you, and even dare to treat you coldly, and their existence is always to remind you that you are just a farm player in this world, and do not indulge in false compliments.
So Lu Xi was actually more worried that one day, the craftsman Uga would be like Cross, treating her with respect and respect her as the owner of the farm.
That may mean that she has completely integrated into this world......
There were a lot of things in his mind, but Lu Xi smiled slightly on his face, looking like he was in his chest, "Hahaha, don't worry, the residents of this farm are all under my control." ”
Describing the Spirit Farm as the effect of a strange elemental artifact, Lu Xi's calmness calmed the frightened chestnut flower.
When she thought about it, it had indeed been quite a long time since she was trapped under the ruins of the house, and if it was an elemental magic weapon that could be called an "artifact", everything would have passed.
It also explains why Lord Rowem was so stiff in the first place, but now he is so flexible - because Miss Lucy, who controls everything, is not here before, so Lord Rowem is so stiff.
Having regarded Lord Rowem and the other farm dwellers as beings resembling dolls, Chestnut Blossom sighed.
Of course, this is not the case, but Lu Xi doesn't need to tell Lihua the truth, give an excuse to let Lihua feel at ease, don't think about it, secretly prepare something in private, and ruin Lu Xi's affairs.
After eating, most of Xiuge's leftovers were eaten by Mao Hao, and Chestnut Flower was responsible for washing.
For the various ways to use the kitchen, Lihua listened to the introduction, and it was natural to get started, and its mastery degree was much more proficient than Xiuge.
Lu Xi looked at it thoughtfully, it seems that the original farm is really not ordinary, many things, the slaves living on the farm are no longer strange.
Looking at Lihua's work proficiency, Lu Xi had the heart to let her act as a maid to help herself, and Lihua certainly had no opinion.
But after thinking about it, Lu Xi felt that Lihua was still lacking in physical strength, and it was okay to temporarily play the role of a maid, and she still had to change it if she had the chance.
It wasn't until just before dinner that Xiuge got down from the white feather horse, and his hair, which was originally erect, was already stained with sweat in a few places, and it was wet and sticking to his forehead.
Xiuge looked at Lu Xi with shining eyes, "Miss Lucy, all the monsters outside the farm have been cleaned up!" ”
Lu Xi looked at Xiuge's empty hands, thought about the monsters that were at least dozens, and couldn't help asking, "What about those monsters?" Didn't you bring it back? ”
Xiuge blinked, very innocent, "What did you bring back for?" ”
Lu Xi was silent, "Don't you know that the body materials of monsters are very valuable?" And monster meat can also be eaten. ”
Xiuge frowned, "Is monster meat delicious?" "I think it's a bad experience of eating monster meat.
No! The point is that it's worth the money! Lu Xi looked at Xiuge silently, and sure enough, the eldest young master who didn't know the suffering of the world.
Let's just say how many monsters can be cleaned up so quickly.
"Miss Lucy, are you short of money?" Xiuge tilted his head sideways, looking extremely well-behaved, his face full of incomprehension.
The furs, teeth, and claws of so many monsters can't be sold for dozens of gold coins combined.
Lu Xi was silent again, she thought about it, the warehouse of the game system was full in the past, and it could be exchanged for a large sum of money at any time, and then there was Mayor Sienqi to compensate for the loss of 100,000 gold coins, she really didn't seem to be bad for money.
But......
"I'm not short of money, but I like money." Lu Xi's tone was resentful, she would be heartbroken if dozens of gold coins were thrown outside like this.
When I read the comments before, I always mentioned the problem of Uga's attitude.
But the character settings of many NPCs in the game are actually like this, and there will be bad things.
I didn't even dare to write too much......
Found out that the world was wrong in the previous chapter.
Roughly calculated, half a month to survive in the grassland, a month to survive in the forest, more than a month to travel, and more than a month on the farm.
So it's not three months, it's four months.
