Summon The Skeletons To Farm, I Make Money Lying Down

#8 - Chapter 8: The Little Skeleton Helps Farm

The clothes materialized on Shen Xingyan's body were slowly disappearing, signifying the end of the privilege time given to newcomers by Star Origin.

To prevent newcomers from passively becoming exhibitionists, Star Origin grants them a limited time to experience materialized clothing upon arrival, allowing them time to familiarize themselves with Star Origin's features without drawing excessive attention.

Shen Xingyan also noticed this change and quickly equipped the 'Newcomer's Set' from his inventory to avoid being labeled an exhibitionist by the Star Origin world.

The Newcomer's Set occupied the weapon, upper garment, and lower garment slots in the equipment inventory, with each slot only able to hold one item, preventing stacking.

Shen Xingyan glanced at the vast equipment inventory containing only these three lonely items. Feeling embarrassed by his poverty, he quickly closed the equipment page, not wanting to dwell on it.

Upon equipping the Newcomer's Set, Shen Xingyan immediately exuded the aura of a professional farmer. He looked himself up and down, then nodded slightly, relatively satisfied with his attire.

The only flaw was that his feet were bare, firmly planted on the soil, which made him, who had always worn shoes, somewhat unaccustomed.

But then he thought, didn't farmers of long ago work in the fields without shoes? He decided not to be so particular.

He gently touched the coarse cloth, finding it acceptable. After all, no matter how realistic the Star Origin world was, he was only present as a mental consciousness, and his physical senses were not as acute as in reality.

Stretching slightly, Shen Xingyan looked at the outfit and thought, 'I'll probably be wearing this for a long time.'

Picking up the hoe and looking at the land before him, Shen Xingyan was about to start sowing wheat seeds when he suddenly remembered his talent skill: the ability to summon a skeleton with all stats at 1 for combat.

His mind immediately became active. If the summoned skeleton's stats were too low for actual combat, could he have the skeleton help him with farming?

After all, farming, if strictly interpreted, could be understood as a farmer's form of combat!

If it really worked, his planting efficiency should increase significantly.

With this thought in mind, Shen Xingyan mentally recited the 'Summon Skeleton' talent skill and naturally began to chant a strange melody whose meaning he didn't understand.

As he chanted softly, the ground in front of him began to tremble slightly, and a skull made of white bones slowly emerged from the soil.

If anyone else unfamiliar with the situation saw this, they would instinctively retreat, feeling a sense of panic.

But Shen Xingyan didn't find it strange. After all, it was something he had anticipated. He was just a little surprised by the "down-to-earth" entrance!

Shen Xingyan continued to chant the unknown melody, and the skeleton gradually revealed itself until its entire appearance was fully presented before him.

Looking at the slightly short skeleton in front of him, Shen Xingyan couldn't help but smack his forehead. He hadn't expected such a miniature skeleton.

The skeleton in front of him was only about the size of a six or seven-year-old child. One could say it was child labor among skeletons.

Moreover, its bones lacked any luster, and some places were severely damaged, as if it would fall apart at any moment.

Seeing this, Shen Xingyan couldn't help but sigh inwardly: 'If I took such a skeleton to the battlefield, it wouldn't be killed by the disaster but would die a social death from being ridiculed by the human race.'

Slightly shaking his head, Shen Xingyan still checked the skeleton's basic stats:

Name: Little Skeleton (Name can be changed)

Owner: Shen Xingyan

Race: Undead

Skills: None

Strength: 1 point

Agility: 1 point

Constitution: 1 point

Spirit: 1 point

Health: 10/10 points (Restores 1 point of health every 10 hours)

Physical Attack: 1 point

Magical Attack: 1 point

Defense: 1 point

Speed: 1 point

Note: Can perform various combat actions according to the summoner's instructions.

Looking at the stats, all at 1 point, Shen Xingyan felt disappointed despite having anticipated it.

To have it perform combat actions with such stats... this note really doesn't understand what a stat of 1 means.

After a small吐槽, Shen Xingyan composed himself, took out the bag of seeds from his inventory, and walked towards the field carrying the hoe.

Looking back at the Little Skeleton still standing there, Shen Xingyan didn't speak directly but mentally connected to the Little Skeleton, instructing it to follow him.

He naturally knew this ability when he summoned the Little Skeleton, without needing to deliberately explore methods.

Upon receiving the information, the Little Skeleton immediately followed Shen Xingyan without hesitation, although its movements were slightly slow, which was a common problem for skeletons.

After arriving at the field, Shen Xingyan dug a small hole in the ground with the hoe and signaled the Little Skeleton to record his actions. Then, he took out a seed and placed it in the dug hole.

After the Little Skeleton recorded these actions, Shen Xingyan handed over all the seeds and began to dig the second small hole, then signaled the Little Skeleton to put the seed in it.

The Little Skeleton paused slightly, standing still. Shen Xingyan thought that this idea wouldn't work. He was about to take back the bag of seeds from the skeleton's hand and continue planting.

At this moment, the Little Skeleton suddenly moved, precisely picking up a seed with its finger bones and throwing it into the small hole, imitating Shen Xingyan's actions.

Watching the Little Skeleton's movements, although somewhat clumsy, were generally smooth, Shen Xingyan couldn't help but clench his fist and celebrate.

"From now on, two people, no, two laborers working together to farm, the efficiency will definitely be incomparable to me working alone. Not only will I be much more relaxed in the future,

but also the time spent cultivating will increase, allowing for meticulous planting and increasing the yield of this land significantly!

My talent skill, in this way, is quite practical and not a useless skill!"

Shen Xingyan secretly felt excited. Although such an improvement meant nothing to those with capital, for Shen Xingyan, who was already at a low point and had his own goals, even a slight improvement was worth celebrating.

After the excitement, Shen Xingyan began to cooperate with the Little Skeleton, replicating the process and gradually completing the planting of the entire field.

The planting task, which originally would have taken Shen Xingyan two or three hours to complete alone, was completed in just over an hour with the Little Skeleton's cooperation, resulting in a significant increase in efficiency.

"Congratulations, you have completed your first planting, rewarding you with a well. Please set the location."

This reward was also within Shen Xingyan's expectations. After surveying the surroundings, he chose the center of the field to facilitate future irrigation.
