Infinitely Criticizing the Villain for Being Like My Ex-Boyfriend

The movie was over, but the villagers, still eager to watch, had not left yet. They were still sitting in groups around the open space chatting and sharing the food they had brought from home.

"Hey! Kid!" Wang Er had sharp eyes and caught a kid who was running with something in his hand and laughing.

"What are you doing?" The child had a gap in his tooth and was in a hurry to find his friends to play, so he spoke harshly and hurriedly.

"What's that in your hand?" Wang Er asked gently, not angry at the child's bad attitude.

"Popcorn beans." The child spread out his dirty hands, and a handful of popcorn beans were sticking to his hands with sweat.

He looked at Wang Er hesitantly, then reluctantly asked, "How many do you want?"

Rice puff beans are made from rice, and normally no villagers are willing to make them.

It was because it was so lively today that some people had the heart to take out the tools to crack the beans - but they didn't dare to ask for money, and just asked the villagers to exchange things for food.

"I exchanged it for the egg pancakes my mother gave me. It's just under the dirt road." Seeing that Wang Er didn't seem to have any intention of eating his food, the child breathed a sigh of relief and pointed the way to everyone.

Li Zhuang, who was observing Wang Er from the side, commented: "This player has a strong affinity, and the NPC's favorability towards her is quite high... Is this her skill?"

"No." Hou Kecen came over and chatted with them.

Wang Er is also a female player. Although she is taciturn, she occasionally joins them, so she knows some information: "Before entering the game, Wang Er was a doctor, and it seems that her level is not low. She often deals with patients, so she is always more patient and gentle than ordinary people."

"No wonder, her hands were so steady when she attacked just now. She must be the kind of doctor who performs surgery." Lu Zhi said affirmatively. Fluffy straw crumbs kept spewing out of his mouth, choking Li Zhuang and causing him to sneeze loudly.

Wang Er seemed to sense something, turned his head and looked at them, revealing a faint smile: "What's wrong?"

Zhang Chunliang looked at this woman who had little presence among the players, thoughtfully.

Just now, in the movie illusion, facing the strange blood line that trapped everyone, Wang Er’s first reaction was that the blood line looked very familiar.

She had probably seen something similar somewhere before. Could it be that this strange line had appeared elsewhere in the dungeon? This might be a clue. When he had time, he would definitely ask her about it.

"Let's go buy some popcorn beans and drinks. This crappy place is driving me crazy!" Li Zhuang was eager to leave.

No one was in the mood to stay here any longer, so they asked and inquired, and finally found the villager who had made the rice beans.

However, the villager had nothing beside him except the tools for making popcorn. He just stood there stupidly, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Countryman, do you have any beans left? We'd like some!" Since Wang Er had found out the information, according to the rules, she would be the first person to contact the NPC and obtain information.

"It seems that this piece of the main storyline will belong to her." Qiu Yiran muttered softly, with a slightly sour tone.

"No...no more." The fellow looked at the crowd and said to them stutteringly.

Seeing that the last mission that was about to be completed had gone wrong, Wang Er, no matter how good-tempered he was, couldn't help but feel anxious: "What happened? It's still early, how come it's gone?"

Logically speaking, the villagers' current purchasing power is not so generous as to buy out all the snacks made from white rice at once. Most of the people who came here today brought delicious food from home.

Those who come to buy rice popcorn beans are all from well-off families who love their children. They are willing to grit their teeth and exchange the good things at home for beans to make their children happy.

The villager who was making beans thought the same way - he didn't intend to exchange much at all. As long as he could make a profit, he would have fun with everyone tonight, so he only made a basket of popcorn... and he had just exchanged three or four handfuls when a big dog suddenly rushed over and took away his whole basket!

He was originally very annoyed, so angry that he wanted to chase the greedy dog ​​back and beat it to death first, regardless of whether it had an owner or not, because it had ruined his good things.

Unexpectedly, before he could take two steps, a tall and handsome young man stopped him.

"how much is it?"

Wow, the villager was stunned.

There are probably not many young men as handsome as this one in the world. With his figure and appearance, it is not an exaggeration to say that he was raised in the city.

He was just wondering why he had never heard of such a good-looking young man in the village when he saw the young man casually pulling out a handful of bills from his pocket.

"I don't want the money." He was startled and looked around quickly. When he found that no one noticed him, he quickly refused: "If you have bread and steamed buns, give them to me... Just five will do!"

He felt a little pained, because he had lost money on the basket of popcorn and five cakes, but he wanted to get to know this good young man, thinking that maybe he could introduce his niece to him...

The young man seemed not to hear his words. He lowered his eyes, counted out five pieces at a time, threw them lightly into his wooden basket of popcorn, and then went straight after the dog.

"Hey! Why don't you listen to me? Don't hurt me! I don't want to sell anything!" The villager was a little annoyed. He didn't care about the surprised and complicated looks of the people around him. He quickly picked up the five one-dollar bills and was about to chase after the young man to return them.

Seeing that person walking away, the local villagers in Xiaohegou stepped forward tremblingly and grabbed the villager who was making the rice cake: "Don't kill yourself! Are you blind? No one dared to approach him without seeing! Are you looking for death?!"

The villager was stunned at first, and then looked at the fearful expressions on everyone's faces in confusion. Finally, he seemed to remember something, and his face suddenly turned pale.

He had been in a daze for a long time, and even had wild thoughts about where he would be buried after his death. It was not that he didn't want to go home quickly, but he really didn't dare to leave. What if the man changed his mind and wanted to take the money back, and found out that he had left, wouldn't he find his family and punish him? He had a wife and children at home, and they couldn't stand such a toss!

Now no one wants to talk to him, for fear of being contaminated by bad luck and getting into trouble. So his place has been unpopular for a long time.

Until now, suddenly a few people said they wanted to exchange his popcorn beans.

“Gone, gone…” His mouth was somewhat bitter, “Taken…taken away by a dog.”

He even felt a little more resentful in his heart - couldn't you have come earlier? If you had come earlier, I would have exchanged all the steamed buns for you, and then I would have picked up the basket and walked away. I would never come here to eat beans again in this life!

"Dog...?" Zhang Chunliang was stunned for a moment after hearing what the villager said. He remembered the familiar cry he heard in the illusion, and suddenly had a strange guess - could this dog be a big dog? Did it steal the villagers' rice beans? !

It has no teeth, how can it eat these snacks!

He was puzzled and was about to ask more questions when he heard a cheerful voice behind him: "Xiaoliang!"

Zhang Chunliang was stunned and turned his head. Xu Er was wearing a crisp and beautiful navy blue shirt with his sleeves rolled up to his forearms. He was holding a military aluminum water bottle in his hand and gave him a shy smile.

"Xu Er!" Zhang Chunliang was a little surprised, "Why are you here?"

"The dog was not tied up properly, so it ran to your house, but found that you were not at home." Xu Er came over and handed him the kettle. "I guess you came to watch a movie, so I just happened to come and watch it together."

Zhang Chunliang took the kettle, opened it and smelled a sweet orange scent. He raised his head - Xu Er winked at him.

Zhang Chunliang laughed unconsciously.

"Woo-woo-woo-" Zhang Chunliang felt something furry rubbing against his trouser legs again. When he lowered his head, he saw the big dog sniffing his trouser legs with its wet nose, trying to lift up his trousers and lick his legs.

"It looks a lot more energetic." Zhang Chunliang looked at the big dog's lively appearance and thought that this guy was really lucky. It was sick and listless yesterday, but today it can jump around. Except that it still has no teeth and its paw is a little lame.

"You take such good care of it." Zhang Chunliang said sincerely.

"It has been missing you all day." Xu Er's voice suddenly became a little sad, "But you never came to play with it."

"Ah...would you like to introduce yourself?"

The players watched Zhang Chunliang chatting intimately with this extraordinary NPC for a long time. The atmosphere between the two was so harmonious that no one could interrupt, and they couldn't help feeling a little awkward.

Li Zhuang could only bite the bullet and cough lightly, interrupting their conversation.

Zhang Chunliang came back to his senses and quickly looked at the big dog at his feet: "Is this the guy who stole the rice beans from this villager?"

The big dog's ears twitched, as if it didn't understand. It continued to cling to Zhang Chunliang's legs and tried hard to lift up his pants with its mouth.

Zhang Chunliang raised his eyebrows and kicked it lightly.

The big dog suddenly seemed to have suffered a great injustice. It fell to the ground whimpering, as if surrendering, and exposed its hairy belly to Zhang Chunliang.

Zhang Chunliang, who has raised a dog, understands the dog's mind best. If he is willing to squat down and touch its belly now, this guy will feel that he has done something wrong and has been forgiven by his owner, and will continue to do bad things without restraint next time.

"I paid it, but it didn't eat it." Xu Er said helplessly, pointing to the basket not far away.

When the big dog saw Zhang Chunliang, he ran over excitedly and forgot about the basket of treasures he had been carrying for half a day.

"I think it probably missed you, so it brought you a gift." Xu Er's eyes were like hooks, and he glanced lightly at the orange soda in Zhang Chunliang's hand.

Zhang Chunliang felt his mind begin to empty again, and he smiled unconsciously: "Can you sell us that basket of rice beans? My friends want to try some, too."

"Of course." Xu Er agreed quickly. He showed his dimples and stared at Zhang Chunliang, refusing to let go: "What do you want in exchange, Xiaoliang?"

Zhang Chunliang coughed lightly and answered cautiously: "If you don't mind, I also brought a few cream toffees sent back from abroad in my bag."

This was mailed to me by a friend from the original owner. It was quite expensive, and I have never been able to afford to eat it. I only peel one when I feel craving for it.

"Is that all?" Xu Er frowned slightly and looked at Zhang Chunliang's "friends" meaningfully.

The players seemed to have just woken up from their dreams and began to speak.

Some asked for money, others asked for biscuits, bread, and unopened branded daily necessities.

These were rare good things in the village. If the rice beans were still with that villager, he would give them a big basket without saying a word, and might even give them the basket as well.

However, the players were somewhat worried. They felt that the young man in front of them would not be interested in these things. He made this request as if he was playing a trick on them... no, as if he was playing a trick on Zhang Chunliang.

"I don't need any of these." Xu Er glanced at the woods in the distance with boredom, and spoke without any interest: "But, after all, Xiaoliang and I are friends."

He paused for two seconds before suggesting, "I don't want your things anymore. You can take this basket. Let Xiaoliang accompany me to send the dog home. That's your reward."

Without waiting for Zhang Chunliang to consider, he tilted his head and asked the players, "Is this okay?"

The players could complete half of the task without paying any price, which was of course what they wanted, so they all turned to Zhang Chunliang for help.

Zhang Chunliang sighed, as if he had considered it for a while, and then he made a difficult decision: "Then let's do this, I'll go with you to deliver the dog, and you give them the basket."

Both parties were happy and the deal was completed quickly.

Next, they needed to find "sweet soda", so they didn't stay long and said goodbye and left.

"I'll bring you a bottle when I find it. Thank you." Hou Kecen patted his shoulder gently, then left with He Jiaojie, swinging her beautiful ponytail.

Zhang Chunliang looked in the direction she left with some surprise - this girl was really strange. She had obviously only met him a few times, but she always had an inexplicable kindness towards him.

"Does it look good?" Xu Er stared at the shoulder that had just been patted with an indifferent expression and asked in a faint voice.

"Ahem..." Zhang Chunliang almost choked as he couldn't catch his breath. He was a little annoyed: "Don't think of me as a gangster. I'm just thinking about something."

"I haven't said anything yet, Xiaoliang." Xu Er raised his eyes and looked at Zhang Chunliang's face, pursing his lips slightly.

Even though his heart was upright and had no distracting thoughts, Zhang Chunliang at this moment couldn't help but think that he was a heartless man.

He hurriedly stopped his outrageous thoughts from continuing to spread, and instead put his arm around Xu Er's shoulders, trying hard to change the subject: "I haven't said it yet, thank you!"

Just now, Xu Er helped him bargain in front of all the players and successfully made all the players owe him a favor.

Zhang Chunliang understood what he meant, so he went with the flow and cooperated with him. Not only did he complete the task, but he also made all the players grateful to him.

——After all, on the surface, he sacrificed his own time to complete the task and helped the players solve a difficult problem.

But they never thought that if Xu Erheng had not intervened, they would have successfully completed the task with the villagers long ago.

Zhang Chunliang was in a good mood and opened the military canteen. Inside was the orange soda that Xu Er had asked the villagers to get for him. It looked particularly thirst-quenching. It seemed that he would be the first to complete this task.

However... out of some concerns, he didn't want to drink the orange soda right now. It would be very strange if he drank out a piece of knife fragment.

"I haven't eaten tonight." He casually pinched a handful of rice beans and threw them into his mouth. The rice aroma was very strong, but because the owner was reluctant to put too much white sugar, the taste was a bit bland.

"Oh, what a coincidence." Xu Er also followed his example and pinched some beans, gently sprinkled them into the big dog's wide-open mouth, and then said casually: "I just finished cooking and the dog got lost. I'll go back now and maybe it can feed us after heating it up."

"That's great!" Zhang Chunliang remembered Xu Er's cooking skills and happily decided to have a meal with him again today.

But just as the two of them took a few steps, Xu Er suddenly remembered something. He picked up the empty bamboo basket and walked to the trembling villager who was standing aside as punishment.

Xu Er put down the basket and patted him on the shoulder gently: "It tastes good, go back home early."

"Hey... I, I'll go home now..." The villager responded with a trembling voice and couldn't help sniffing.

After watching the two people walk away and disappear out of sight, he could not help sobbing and wiped away his tears as if he had survived a disaster.
