There is a function to check concurrent players in the game. Ronggui first discovered this function when he entered the game not long ago. At that time, there were nearly 2,000 people online at the same time, but soon this number became smaller and smaller. , the rate of decrease was too fast, and Ronggui simply did not look at it. Today, I suddenly remembered to take a look, only to find that the current number is simply too low to be lower:
"There are only three players left..." Ronggui sighed.
However, he immediately looked at the sky: "We are two people, isn't the other person one person?"
"I don't know if I was just born or I have been playing until now. If I am playing until now, I can play until now. It's really tenacious~"
At least, Ronggui felt that if it was just him, even if it was such a game full of hometown feeling, it probably wouldn't last long, right? After all, in addition to common sense, this game also requires IQ...
=-=
Why... even in the game... my face hurts so much...
While fanning the stove, Ronggui looked at the few pages of paper in front of the stove: Even if Xiaomei said it was okay to be a primary school student, it would be okay even if he never graduated, but he still wanted to struggle.
After all, his ultimate ideal is to be a big star!
Very big and famous idol star!
If an idol of this level is revealed to have only elementary school education, then—
Too, lost, face, too!
In his last life, he still managed to graduate from high school, but now he can't even graduate from elementary school. It's just... unbearable!
=-=,,,
Being able to memorize a little is a little, and Ronggui also brought in the study materials that Xiaomei had arranged for him outside when he was playing games.
Anyway, he fixed the stove at Uncle Furnace's house for two hours every day, and this time was just used for studying.
Thinking to himself, Ronggui glanced at the wooden door that was diagonally across - there was the school of the master in town, and Xiaomei was now reading with the master inside.
"Agui is really hardworking, and he didn't forget to endorse when he fanned the stove." While Ronggui was in a daze, Mr. Furnace's voice suddenly appeared in his ear.
Probably because of the long time together, Uncle Furnace, who was unusually cold at the beginning, would occasionally take the initiative to say a few words to Ronggui.
Ronggui was simply flattered when he was approached for the first time!
God knows, Mr. Furnace is really very cold, and he rarely talks to other people in the town!
Maybe it's because of Ronggui's special nagging? In order to make things for Ronggui, when Xiaomei is studying everywhere, doesn't he have to look at the stove? It's so lonely that no one is talking around, he often talks to himself to the uncle of the stove. From the beginning, he ignores him, then occasionally answers him, and then takes the initiative to talk... Ronggui thought at first that he might unlock a Mysterious quests or something, I lost hope in the end, but I have a lot more intimacy with Uncle Furnace.
After all, apart from Xiaomei, Uncle Furnace is the one who talks to him the most~
Ronggui raised his head and saw that Uncle Stove was holding his hands behind his back, his eyes falling on the paper in front of him.
↑
The data in reality can be brought into the game, and it needs to be entered manually. The moment you enter the game, those data will be automatically presented on the carrier that best suits the game environment.
In this ancient game, Xiaomei's materials are written on rice paper in the form of calligraphy.
However, various mathematical symbols and brush rice paper seem to be particularly incompatible.
Seeing that the uncle saw the learning materials in front of him, Rong Gui's face flushed, and he was glad that the uncle could not understand it.
What a shame!
Shyly folding the paper and putting it away, Ronggui fanned the stove a few times: "It's not very hard..."
"I also said that you didn't work very hard. I see that you have been carrying a few pieces of paper every day to read. What's wrong? Do you want to study? If you want to study, go to the opposite side to find Master Zhang. Isn't Xiaomei studying with Master Zhang?" Come down and help him remove the ashes from the grill.
"That... I... I didn't pass the exam." Ronggui said this in a low voice.
When Xiaomei went to study at Master Zhang's place, she didn't just pay a fee to go in, she actually had to take an exam!
Xiaomei took the exam, and Ronggui also took the exam, but—
Xiaomei, a future person, passed with full marks, while Ronggui, a person who was closer to the civilization of this game... was rejected.
"Please study at home for a while and then come to the exam." Master Zhang refused very euphemistically, but very euphemistically, he refused.
Ronggui was really upset at that time.
But after being sad, he felt it was a matter of course: after all, Master Zhang took the exam in classical Chinese. He knew the words, but he couldn't understand the meaning of the words together. On the contrary, Xiaomei studied it offline, so it's no wonder that Xiaomei passed with a high score.
"Don't be sad, that guy's exam questions are very difficult, I have done it too, and then..." Mr. Furnace didn't say, but from the final sound of his engulfment, Ronggui knew the result.
Then the two chatted about their studies for a while, and without stopping, Ronggui confided to the uncle that he might not be able to go to school.
Speaking of which, I feel much better.
"Xiaomei said it doesn't matter if she doesn't pass the test, he will support me~" Ronggui described it faithfully, so he showed his affection in front of the old man without him noticing.
"Hey, the two of you have such a good relationship~" The uncle also smiled.
After two hours of fanning the stove, as if waiting for him to finish, the door of the embroidered mother's house next door suddenly opened, and a woman in a plain blue dress appeared inside, beckoning to Ronggui, she said crisply: "Agui , have you finished your work? Help me buy some embroidery threads~ I want embroidery needles for "Su Embroidery", don't buy the wrong one. "
"Okay~" Ronggui replied cheerfully.
After entering the ancient style game, Ronggui immediately followed the local customs, and even his tone of speech unknowingly moved closer to the ancient costume TV series he had watched before.
"Buying a new needle, is this a new piece of embroidery?" Ronggui often helps Yang Xiu Niang buy a needle, thread, etc., and Rong Gui has a little understanding of her habits.
"Well, I want to try "double-sided embroidery". "Yang Xiu-niang smiled shyly.
"That's amazing! I'll go right away." Rong Gui walked to her side, Yang Xiuniang gave him a bag of money, and then closed the door with a slight bow.
Knocking on the cigarette bag in his hand, the uncle of the stove squinted at Ronggui: "Although you are humble and say that you know little, but it seems to me that you know a lot. What is double-sided embroidery, those people outside certainly don't know. ."
Ronggui waved his hand: "It's just common sense in life."
After talking to the uncle, Ronggui put the fan away, and then ran to the ironware shop - embroidery needles are also a kind of metal products, only the ironware shop can sell them, Ronggui knows it well.
Although he has limited understanding of ancient "knowledge", he is not lacking in common sense of life. After all, ancient games were developed by modern people. As a person who really lived in that era, he naturally understands these things in life.
When Xiaomei gains experience by "learning" and "making", Ronggui relies on "fanning the stove" and running errands for NPCs to gain some experience. He is diligent, and he really knows all kinds of terms that appear in the game, so he doesn't waste time. In this situation, his level growth was actually on par with Xiaomei!
This is also something that has rarely made him happy for a while.
When buying embroidery needles for Yang Xiu Niang, he also helped Blacksmith Mu to visit the shop for a while, because the other party was going to make embroidery needles first. When he went to the shop, Rong Gui gained a little experience, and helped Aunt Li carry things on the road and earn money After some experience and two steamed buns → Aunt Li chatted with him and knew that there was another Xiaomei in his house, so she gave him two steamed buns and walked back with the steamed buns. He was stopped by the owner of the restaurant, Zhang, again. Let him help buy eggs... Seeing the "little yellow" in the yard of Lin Sansao who raises chickens, Rong Gui sighed.
So far, apart from Uncle Stove, only one NPC has thought of accepting him as his apprentice, that is, Chef Ouyang in Boss Zhang's restaurant. However, he learned that the other party's best cooking is all kinds of chicken, and he saw the chicken on the chopping board. Looking almost exactly like Xiao Huang, Rong Gui relented at the time, told the other party about his situation, and then rejected the only chance.
Walking all the way to help people work, Ronggui's experience increased little by little, and then when he returned to Yang Xiuniang's door, knocked on the door and called the other party out, and handed the embroidery needle into the hands of the other party, the system reminded him that the task was completed. , originally there was a prompt when all tasks were completed, but this time, in addition to the prompt, Ronggui also heard a sentence:
"Congratulations, you have reached the twelfth level, you can leave the novice village and go to the vast world outside to freely experience the vastness and magic of the dream world!"
He also heard a particularly old-fashioned celebratory music!
This is a big deal!
When Xiaomei came back from school, Ronggui immediately told Xiaomei the content of the prompt he heard about the upgrade.
As always, Xiaomei didn't look surprised, he just nodded, and then said, "I'm level 12 today, and I heard the same sound, and—"
Xiaomei took out a piece of white paper with a stamp from her sleeve, with the words "Lu Yin" written on it.
"Lu Yin?" This is something that Ronggui has never seen before. He took the Lu Yin in Xiaomei's hand, Ronggui looked at it carefully, and then turned his eyes to Xiaomei.
"Master Zhang said that my knowledge has accumulated to a certain level, and I can go outside to test for talents."
Ronggui: 囧! ! !
"He also wrote a letter of recommendation to me, recommending me to his senior brother. If I am fortunate enough to be a middle school student, Master Zhang suggested that I study with his senior brother for a period of time, and go to the state capital to test people..."
Ronggui: 囧! ! !
Ronggui only got a hint that he could leave the novice village, but when he got to Xiaomei, he got the "props" to go to the outside world!
Not to other game versions of Dream Sky, but to other maps inside this ancient game!
This difference is huge, but Ronggui at this moment is completely unaware of it.
He just thinks that Xiaomei is really amazing!
"If the test goes on like this, is it possible that Xiaomei will go to the champion exam? I heard that the champion will be parading around the streets~"
"This is really great!" Picking up Xiaomei and turning around, Ronggui immediately began to pack up with great interest, and then told everyone she knew that Xiaomei was going to take the test outside.
Knowing that Xiaomei is going to take the exam, almost all the residents of the town who have taught Xiaomei skills have prepared farewell gifts for Xiaomei. In the process, they have received many tasks, such as giving something to someone, such as buying something... Quest Although it was for Xiaomei, the system defaulted that the two of them were in a team state, so Ronggui also received the same task.
In addition, they also got a lot of gifts, all kinds of very practical gifts, which made it a little deserted compared to the uncle Ronggui, who had been working for a long time.
It's strange to say that this uncle is a fan of the stove every day, and he doesn't know why he is fanning the stove. He has no experience in helping him. Nothing was given to him.
Ronggui didn't care at all, and he even thanked Uncle Furnace: after all, when they first entered the game, Uncle Furnace gave them a place to stay, and until they left, their home in the game was the Furnace The east wing of the uncle's house.
However, the uncle seems to be very concerned.
"It's also a matter of learning from a teacher. Xiaomei got quests and props from her master, but you can't get anything. This way... this old man is too shabby."
The old man pondered for a while, then raised his head after a while.
"I can't let you be a teacher in vain. The teacher who has called me for so long has to give you something."
"Ah, no need..." Ronggui comforted the uncle.
The uncle shook his head, then smiled at him: "I can't give you anything here, I can only give it outside."
The uncle said something very strange. The second monk Ronggui was puzzled. After thinking about it for a while, he didn't understand it, and then he stopped thinking about it.
As always, get off the plane, sleep, but get up the next morning to cook, exercise...
When they finished the day's anaerobic exercise, the computer prompted Ronggui to receive a new email:
Ronggui opened the email with a question mark on his face, and then—
"Hello dear Ronggui,
I am very pleased to inform you that due to your excellent performance, you have passed the interview of Professor Alufa and have been officially accepted as a graduate student of the Department of Ancient Civilizations of Eastern Higher College…”
Honorable…
Ronggui was stunned! ! !
