Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

Accompanied by the rhythmic tapping of the old miner, Gu Cheng dug enough ore and returned to the village with the old miner facing the sunset.

At this time, smoke was rising from the chimneys of every house in Mingyue Village, and the rich aroma of food filled the nostrils.

Gu Cheng felt the mixed but not unpleasant fragrance in the air and nodded slightly.

Gu Pan and AI cooperated very well, even considering environmental factors.

The player has no place to stay for the time being, so naturally no one prepares dinner for him.

After Gu submitted two tasks, his level was directly upgraded to level one, and there was only a 100 experience point gap between him and level two.

In addition, he also received an ordinary medicine pickaxe and twenty copper coins purchased from Uncle Da.

The favorability of blacksmith Uncle Da and pharmacist Tia also increased by five points.

Gu Cheng spent ten coppers to rent the right to use the lowest-class private house for five days, and then went offline directly.

The time flow rate in the game is three times that of reality, so more than three hours of game time, only one hour has passed in reality.

Gu Cheng came out of the game cabin sideways and looked at where James and Gu Pan were. The game projection between the two was still continuing.

Qi Zhi asked curiously: "I see you met the old miner. How is it? Are there any flaws in the character's tone and dialogue?"

Gu Cheng frowned slightly, but when he saw Qi Zhi's expectant and frightened expression, he instantly remembered who the author of the old miner's story was.

Gu Cheng rigorously commented: "They are all very consistent with the characters, and during the exchange, he brought out the son he is proud of, which foreshadowed the subsequent plot, but..."

"Ok?"

Qi Zhi opened her eyes wide, pursed her lips and stared at Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng hesitated to speak, but still said bluntly: "Aren't you afraid that the players will scold you if you arrange it this way?"

After all, the triggering condition for this mission is to raise the favorability of the old miner to 80, reaching the level of an irreconcilable friend, and then...then this old friend who has been with you for a long time suddenly dies in front of you the next moment!

Qi Zhi blinked her dark eyes and said with a smile: "Aren't you afraid, are you playing a game? If you put your heart into it, you will lose."

She smiled slyly: "Besides, I strictly abide by the rating requirements to prevent players from getting too involved in the game."

"Just tell me, are you preventing addiction?"

Gu Cheng: "..."

After the two talked, Gu Cheng ordered takeout for all four of them.

Before the takeaway arrived, James stepped out of the game cabin.

Gu Cheng walked up to him and took the initiative to ask how he felt. James excitedly grabbed Gu Cheng's forearm and told his experience enthusiastically.

"The village chief of Hongfeng Village, Grandma Zhang, is a kind old woman. When talking to her, I always feel very comfortable and at ease, as if I am receiving the earnest teachings of my elders."

"You know, I recently fell in love with archeology, so I took the initiative to mention it to her. I didn't expect that she could also speak clearly and rationally."

"I didn't plan to go out, so I went to cook Vera to learn how to bake pizza, and I went to Liang Xiu to learn how to embroider."

"Vera's pizza is so delicious. It has a smooth texture and a fruity aroma. She also taught her very carefully. I really want to make it myself at home."

"Liang Xiu Niang's hands are so skillful. I never thought that such a thin silk thread could split more than a hundred strands. In the end, the thread was thinner than my hair. Moreover, Liang Xiu Niang also introduced me to her embroidery process. Double-sided embroidery.”

He clicked his tongue and said in wonder: "Brother, tell me, is there really such a miraculous skill in ancient times? I find it incredible."

Gu Cheng affirmed: "It really does exist, but it was lost because people didn't need it and no one passed it on."

He continued: "It seems that the inheritance was cut off before the civilization contact period, so the only information we have access to is vague images and text pictures."

James leaned on his shoulder and lamented: "What a shame."

After the takeaway arrived, in order to prevent the dishes from going cold, Gu Cheng took the initiative to contact Gu Pan through the external interface.

After a while, Gu Pan finally exited the game cabin with unfinished content.

Coming to the dinner table, Gu Pan also shared his experience.

"As soon as I saw the cliff in Hongfeng Village, I immediately thought of jumping off the cliff to get a chance, so I spent all fifty coppers and bought a map drawn by Orion, directly unlocked most of the locations in Hongfeng Village, and then hired Two members of the village guard accompanied me to the cliff."

She swallowed the food in her mouth, then danced and said: "The top of the mountain looks close, but I climbed for a full hour and a half. I finally understood what it means to run to death while looking at the mountain."

"But it was all worth it. Looking at the bottomless cliff surrounded by clouds and mist, I jumped straight down, and then I really got the ring!"

Gu Pan's eyebrows were filled with joy and he said proudly: "It taught me a light skill called Liuxian Step."

"This is not an ordinary Qing Gong, but a Qing Gong that can jump between cliffs!"

Gu Cheng asked: "So you jumped up on your own in the end?"

"OK."

Gu Cheng stopped asking, and just wanted to ask for the psychological shadow of the two guards who watched her jump off the cliff and then jumped up again.
