Chapter 76: The Wanderings of a Scattered Soldier
Chapter 76: The Wanderings of a Scattered Soldier (First Order Request)
"I'm going to make this clear today. Either kill me or give me what I want. Otherwise, this is not over."
At the door of the food store, the soldier took off all his clothes and stood in front of the chef with an unruly attitude. The chef was so angry that he picked up a kitchen knife and was about to attack, but in the end he didn't dare to chop it down.
"Get out, get out, get out, take the money and get out of here!" After saying that, he threw out a handful of copper coins and a few steamed buns.
[System prompt: Intimidation succeeded, you received 55 coins, 5 steamed buns, your reputation in Ginkgo Village has been reduced, now it is 34/100. Neutral.]
"Hey, why don't you give it to me earlier? We are reasonable people, okay? Get out of here now."
After saying that, he really rolled away.
He found a deserted place, put on his clothes again, and looked at his morning's haul in his bag.
He asked for more than 3,000 copper coins alone, and filled his bag with all kinds of miscellaneous things. This extortion was much more efficient than begging.
Hahahaha, so cool.
Looking at the pile of goodies in the bag, Sanbing was very proud.
Idiot Dongfang Sheng only knows how to work hard on the farm, and he only gets ten cents an hour. That little bit of money is useless.
I don't eat beef, idiot. I spend money on equipment. Do you think krypton guys are awesome? Wouldn't it be better to buy ribs with that money? You throw it into the game. You really don't know how to live.
Look at my strength, I’m really awesome. I don’t have to do anything and I can make a lot of money.
With money, one naturally wants to spend it, so the scattered soldiers went all the way to the blacksmith shop.
"Brother Wang Kai, give me some good equipment!"
"Do you have money to buy equipment? Your blackmail trick won't work on players."
"Hahaha, you underestimate me, don't you? I have plenty of money."
As he said that, he opened the transaction and showed Wang Kai his currency balance.
Wang Kai was surprised. This was the first time he had seen such a weird player. He had been in the Novice Village for three years, but he didn't expect that there were hidden contents that he didn't know about. It was really easy to make money.
He really wanted to see what would happen if things continued to develop.
"You are rich indeed. Come on, take whatever you want."
The soldier didn't waste any time and just picked the best ones to buy, and soon he was fully equipped.
This time he was not wearing the beggar's clothes as before. He had leather armor, an iron helmet, a sword and a shield. He was fully equipped. Although there was nothing particularly good, it was considered as fully armed.
But my backpack is almost full, so I have to clear out the packages and make some space.
I ran to the farmhouse where chickens were raised before and found the aunt who was feeding the chickens.
"Auntie, here, this is for you."
He used the gift function to give away all the miscellaneous and unused items that he had extorted from her to the chicken-feeding auntie.
System prompt: You donated dry firewood.
System prompt: You donated wheat.
System prompt: You gave away a tattered piece of cloth...
System prompt: Aunt Li's favorability towards you has increased and is now 75.
The chicken-feeding lady was startled. "Hey, what's going on? Where did you get these things? Hey, isn't this Old Man Wang's walking stick? How come it's here with you?"
"Don't worry about it. None of those people are good people. They didn't even give me money. You were kind enough to give me a bun because you saw I was starving. We should distinguish between gratitude and resentment. These are the rewards for you. Just take them and let those who look down on others regret it."
"Hey, kid, you are not doing the right thing. If you continue like this, something bad will happen. Didn't your parents teach you that?"
Sanbing was suddenly a little unhappy, wondering why these NPCs were so long-winded.
It reminded him of his grandmother who had passed away long ago, who also nags like this when she was alive.
"Stop, stop, stop. It's just a game. Auntie, please stop wasting time. Just take it if I tell you to. See you later."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Controlling his character wandering around the streets, the soldier in front of the computer felt a little depressed. He was in a good mood originally, but he felt a little touched by the words of the aunt feeding the chickens.
Parents? Humph, what are those?
He sneered as he thought that he hadn't seen his parents since he was seven years old. Apart from occasionally coming back to send him some living expenses, they had never left any impression on him.
Humph, parents are useless. I am gifted and do not need their discipline.
Forget it, it’s just an NPC, why should I take it seriously? Just continue to make money. I have to say, this game is quite interesting, it’s almost catching up with Honor of Kings.
Although the stragglers act recklessly, they are not stupid. They extort money from villagers who pose no threat and do not touch the militiamen. After all, these militiamen have law enforcement powers. If they provoke him and kill him, there will be no excuse.
Hey, there's an old man in front of me. He looks well dressed and must be rich. Okay, this must be him.
"Old man, what are you doing here? Why don't you stay at home in broad daylight? You are blocking my way, you know? Well, I respect the old and love the young, so I won't bother you. Just give me a hundred or two hundred and forget it."
The old man looked solemn, "Boy, do you know who I am?"
"Hahaha, old man you are so funny. I don't care who you are. Hurry up and give me the money, or I will lie here."
Haha, the old man laughed in anger, "I think you still know better. I am Master Huang, the village chief of Ginkgo Village."
After saying that, the words "Huang Shidao (Chief of Ginkgo Village)" appeared above the old man's head.
The scattered soldier was stunned for a moment, damn, this is impossible.
"Ah, I don't know. Don't be angry, I'll get out of here right now." But it was too late. Tie Qianli and a group of militiamen had surrounded them.
Huang Shidao (chief of Ginkgo Village): "Captain Tie, I heard early on that someone was causing trouble in the village. Look how presumptuous he is."
Tie Qianli said helplessly, "He is a returnee after all, so it's not easy to use heavy hands on him."
"Humph, so what if he is a returnee? He is so reckless and frivolous, he must be punished. We in Ginkgo Village do not welcome such returnees."
As soon as the voice fell, Sanbing immediately heard the voice of the system.
[System prompt: Your reputation in Ginkgo Village has dropped by 50 points and is now 284/300, indifferent. The villagers' attitude towards you has deteriorated. You are now unable to interact with NPCs in this area, and cannot use the stores or other functions in this area.]
What?
Sanbing was stunned. He originally thought that as long as the reputation did not drop below neutral, he would be fine. He could blackmail until the reputation dropped to about 1/100 of neutral before stopping. He did not expect that the old man would give him the cold shoulder.
"Militia!"
Several militiamen immediately surrounded them.
"Immediately expel this person from Ginkgo Village. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed!"
"Order!"
Canglang drew his sword and the militiamen aimed their swords, guns, bows and arrows at the scattered soldiers.
At this time, many villagers had gathered around, and when they heard the village chief's words, they all cheered.
Only the chicken-feeding lady advised, "Ah, village chief, although this child is a bit rude, he actually has a good heart. Why not give him another chance?"
"Humph, there is no second chance. Get out of Ginkgo Village immediately."
The militiamen pressed forward together, and the scattered soldiers could only be pushed back step by step, until they left the range of Ginkgo Village, and then the militiamen stopped.
"Keep an eye on this man. If he dares to enter the village, he will be killed immediately!"
Village Chief Huang said sternly and turned away.
It’s over, it’s over now! The scattered soldier stood at the entrance of the village, looking resentful.
Not far away, Xiao Jie, Wo Yu Cheng Xian and Wang Kai were watching with great interest.
The players naturally noticed the commotion in the village, so they watched the stragglers being driven out of the village, and they were all in a state of confusion.
This guy really brought trouble upon himself. He would have to offend the village chief instead of anyone else.
All the villagers had left, except the aunt who fed the chickens.
"Young man, look at what I told you. Alas, you don't want to listen to my advice. You can't stay here anymore. The village chief has said that you can't enter the village. Hurry and go to the provincial capital before it gets dark. Go north through the Ginkgo Forest and pass the valley pass to the crossroads. To the west is Guiwu Ridge, to the north is Bixia Mountain, and to the east is Luoyang Town. I heard that there are still people alive in Luoyang Town. You can find a way to survive if you go there. Don't walk around randomly.
It would be dangerous if we wait until dark.
I have a few eggs here, you can take them with you on the road."
System prompt: Aunt Li gave you 4 boiled eggs as a gift.
The scattered soldier was touched for a moment, but was immediately replaced by anger and resentment.
"Thank you, Auntie. I have finally figured out that you are the only good person in the whole Ginkgo Village. When I become rich, I will definitely come back to build you two big houses. Those who look down on me will all be killed. If I cannot stay here, I will find another place that will stay. The mountains are high and the road is long. I am leaving now."
After saying that, he turned and walked towards the forest.
The aunt who fed the chickens sighed helplessly, shook her head, and turned back to the village.
The scattered soldiers were walking in the forest. It was just past noon, the sun was shining brightly, and the forest was not too dark.
The scattered soldier became more and more angry as he walked, thinking, damn it, if I can't stay here any longer, I'll just stay and kill monsters to level up. It's time to level up anyway, and when I get to Luoyang Town, I can level up directly in the advanced map. It's much faster to level up in this crappy place.
When I reach a higher level, I will come back and kill all these bastards in this village to let you know how powerful I am.
Aunt Li can be kept and made the village chief.
As I said this, I opened my backpack and ate a boiled egg. I felt an inexplicable warmth in my heart.
Uh... a strange sound perked him up. When he looked up, he saw several staggering soulless zombies walking towards him.
Sanbing thought that the graphics of this game were too realistic and it was creepy to look at.
Never mind, it’s just a small monster, how powerful can it be?
Draw your sword and strike.
After a while——
Haha, that's all, he thought proudly as he looked at the soulless zombies on the ground, I didn't expect the monsters in this game to be so weak, I thought it would be very difficult. If I had known this, I would have come out to level up long ago. Why should I let those bastards look down on me.
Just as he was feeling proud, a figure appeared silently behind the soldier.
The scattered soldier turned around and was startled when he saw a figure suddenly appearing.
"Fuck, you scared me. Hey, who are you? What are you doing?"
"Fuck you."
Ximen Wuhen said this and slashed with his knife.
