For Ye Xu, digging bamboo shoots is a matter of luck and strength, but it is just a matter of strength. Because, he doesn't have to think about luck at all.
When a hoe goes down, it is a sharp point of a bamboo shoot.
Once you find the root, just dig in the direction of the root. Turn over the soil on both sides and above it to find the location of the bamboo shoots.
The bamboo shoots that grow wildly are not necessarily straight up. Sometimes the "knot" faces down or to the sides, and the bamboo shoots will grow along its direction. Halfway through the growth, the direction is forced to change upwards, so many bamboo shoots are actually curved in shape.
When using a hoe, be careful not to break the bamboo shoots growing on both sides with a hoe. The director team didn't give them shovels, so they struggled a bit when digging the soil, so they had to use hoes to pull the soil aside.
Ji Ling was fast, digging along a bamboo root for a long time but didn't see a bamboo shoot, so he came over to help Ye Xu. Ye Xu's luck is better than hers, the root he is looking for must have bamboo shoots.
"Let me dig." Ji Ling asked him to rest for a while.
Ye Xu didn't argue, so he instructed her to dig up the soil. Soon, Ye Xu found a pointed thing in the soil. Yu Miao was also keenly aware of the abnormality, and reminded the two of them with a "meow".
He hurriedly asked Ji Ling to stop, and then he used his hands to push away the soil around the point, and it turned out that it was a bamboo shoot.
"Remove the soil around it, be careful not to damage the bamboo shoots," Ye Xu said.
Ji Ling nodded, and quickly scraped away a large piece of soil around him. This bamboo shoot grows quite deep, 20 centimeters long. After finding the roots of the bamboo shoots, Ye Xu aimed at the roots with a hoe, hoeed a few times and successfully pried off the bamboo shoots, intact, with some fine roots.
After finding one, Ji Ling immediately regained his spirits: "Keep going."
The two worked together, and it didn't take long to dig up seven or eight bamboo shoots. Some are big and some are small, but the smallest one is bigger than a palm. So many bamboo shoots are enough for several meals.
The three groups over there were scattered and dug for a long time. Only one group was lucky enough to dig a baby bamboo shoot—it was only half a finger long after the bamboo shoot was peeled off, and it was very small and cute. Seeing them get angry, they are so small that they are not enough for a bite.
The task index given by the director team is quite abnormal. It needs to be two kilograms, and you can weigh it with bamboo shoots. Two kilograms of winter bamboo shoots must be made up of four or five relatively large bamboo shoots. Can the players dig up a big Duxuan
Ye Xu and the others completed the task ahead of time, filled the soil back, handed over the bamboo shoots, and then went to watch other people. Several groups of players were not very welcome to their arrival, especially after knowing that they had completed the task.
The squeamish girl rolled her eyes directly, telling them not to get in the way. Xianhui's mother just smiled politely and didn't say anything. Yumiao squatted on Ye Xu's shoulder and watched coldly. If it didn't dislike dirty things, it would have jumped down to give these guys a paw.
Ye Xu smoothed its hair with clean hands, not paying attention to the attitude of these two people.
The girl mother in the last group had a wink in comparison. Not only did she not show any emotion when she saw Ye, she smiled all over her face and asked in a low voice, "Where did you dig it just now? You dug so many bamboo shoots. Since You don’t dig anymore, how about I go over and try? I don’t seem to have any bamboo shoots in this area, so I can’t dig them anyway.”
Ye Xu quite likes her cleverness, she won't give people a disgusted feeling of playing tricks, and she can also be a human being, and will repay her love. Compared with the guys next door who only know how to envy and hate, I don't know how much better it is.
So Ye Xu was very happy to help them, so he said, "I have almost dug there, and you probably couldn't dig anything in the past."
He deliberately paused, seeing that the girl's mother was just a little disappointed, and she didn't show any other expressions, nor did she look cynical like "you just don't want to help". Feeling a little satisfied, I continued.
"If you go over now, the two groups will definitely not be happy. They will compete with you for a position. Then it will be a waste of time." Ye Xu glanced at the hole they dug, and found one that was buried in the soil and half exposed. They accidentally dug out the bamboo roots when they dug along the green roots. "If you dig along the yellow bamboo roots, you should be able to produce bamboo shoots."
He gave a few pointers and left. The girl mother and the rebellious man immediately shifted their positions and started digging at Huang Gen's place as if they had found a treasure. I don't know if they got a little bit of Ouhuang's good luck, but they dug out one after a while.
They were so happy here that they stimulated the group next to them. The virtuous mother pursed her lips and said to her daughter, "Let's go over there. Those two dug a lot there just now, and there are a lot of bamboo shoots there."
The awakened daughter didn't really want to go there, she knew that green roots couldn't dig out bamboo shoots, and Xianhui's mother didn't think about the problem of green roots at all. Even if it has passed, they will still find the green roots to dig, but they still can't get out.
"They must have dug it clean, and they haven't done it in the past." The awakened person said reluctantly.
She is very tired standing here, and she doesn't want to walk around and move her nest anymore.
Xianhui's mother pursed her lips in displeasure. This NPC daughter didn't like to help at all, and she didn't put much effort in digging bamboo shoots, so she hated it. It's really annoying to deliberately fight against her now.
"Then I'll go by myself." She just smiled and walked away with a hoe in her hand. She didn't quarrel with the awakened person, after all, she still remembered the character design.
The Awakened didn't say anything and let her pass by. Instead, she found a place to sit down and rest, anyway, she didn't have to follow the personality.
We dug until six o'clock in the afternoon before everyone called it a day. But in fact, in the next few hours, the players who haven't dug up any bamboo shoots have begun to slack off.
After digging a few times lazily, I sat down and rested. This is too much effort, there is no way.
When I can dig bamboo shoots, although I am tired, I still have some energy. If I can't dig it all the time, I feel boring, I don't even have a sense of surprise, and I still hope to have the motivation to get started.
If you can't eat dinner, you can't eat it. It's not the first time.
Looking at it, Ye Xu felt more and more that the few packets of biscuits he gave yesterday were for nothing, and the two groups with the awakened ones didn't know how to be grateful at all. I thanked him at the time for taking his biscuits, but looking at it again today, I didn't feel relieved at all, otherwise I wouldn't have turned my eyebrows coldly at him.
Some people are so cheap, you help him, he takes it for granted. Ye Xu didn't plan to help them today, maybe they would hate him instead.
Sure enough, when leaving, Xianhui's mother came over with a shy face and asked for biscuits. She felt that she hadn't offended Ye Xu, but when Ye Xu came to watch, her attitude was not that enthusiastic, but at least she exchanged some pleasantries with a smile. Ye Xu shouldn't have any objections to her, so he won't give her food.
But Ye Xu didn't give it, saying that he didn't have any snacks.
Xian Hui's mother's smile froze for a moment: "I saw yesterday that you have quite a lot left..."
There's something more than just biscuits. In fact, she doesn't really want to eat biscuits, what she wants are other snacks. When I saw it yesterday, I thought it must be delicious, and she had never seen it before.
Ye Xu felt that she had such a big face, why should he help her. Yesterday, I did my best to pack the biscuits. According to his personality, he would not help at all.
The biscuits were given because the girl's mother at noon had reciprocated her kindness to him, so he just helped him out. But just giving biscuits to one person is easy to cause disputes. Anyway, he doesn't like to eat that biscuits very much. If there are too many in his hand, he only takes one bag per person.
Looking at it now, this virtuous mother doesn't know if she really takes herself seriously, or if she treats Ye Xu as the holy father who took advantage of her, it's quite shameless.
"But I finished eating before going to bed last night." Ye Xu lied casually, "I can't sleep at night, but I love to eat, and I can't stop eating."
Xianhui's mother's smile froze completely, and she couldn't directly accuse Ye Xu of lying, after all, there was no evidence. But she doesn't believe it's over, otherwise, if today's task is not completed and there is no food, what will he eat? There must be a hand.
People don't want to give it to her, and she has no energy in stalking her. Xian Hui's mother could only leave with a dark face, this time she didn't even say goodbye.
"Why didn't any of the dungeons be eliminated this time?" Ye Xu and Ji Ling walked in the back, and he pulled the director to ask in a low voice.
The director knew the elimination rules and said, "This dungeon is not dangerous, but if you fail to complete the task twice in total, you will be eliminated. When everyone clears the level tonight, they will know that they are eliminated, not just die in the dungeon."
Ye Xu understood: "Is there any task after that?"
"No more." The director shook his head.
From this point of view, the two groups of players who have not eaten for two consecutive nights can give up struggling. The girl group seems to have had lunch, and the task of cooking at noon on the first day was not bad. There should be only one task that was not completed, and the level can be cleared.
Ye Xu didn't care about those who were destined to be eliminated, and went to dinner happily. He didn't know what happened after Xianhui's mother and the others went back to their residence.
"what are you eating?"
Xian Hui's mother looked around the house but couldn't find anything to eat, and cursed secretly that this group of NPCs really knew how to hide things, and in the end they could only drink a glass of cold water to fill their stomachs. As a result, when he went back upstairs, he saw the NPC daughter eating snacks, and his expression turned ugly.
The daughter of the awakened one glanced at her, ignored her, and continued to eat her own. Their group had nothing to eat, so she had to eat snacks to fill her stomach.
"Give me half." Xianhui's mother walked over and said.
The daughter of the awakened one knocked her hand off, and said flatly, "You really think you are my mother? How shameless you are to speak to me in a commanding tone."
"You..." Xianhui's mother's complexion changed slightly, remembering that this "daughter" is an NPC, maybe she can turn into a ghost, and she immediately became weak.
The awakened person ate the last bit of food, threw the packaging bag into the trash can, and glanced at her: "You'd better go back and wash and wait to die, you are eliminated."
"what?!"
Before she could ask clearly, the awakened one had already left. She chased after him, but she didn't see half of the figure, and she was so frightened that she was alert.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the system announced the end of the dungeon, and those who failed to complete the task twice in total were eliminated directly. Before Xianhui's mother could react, her eyes went dark.
Ye Xu and Ji Ling returned to the temple and had a good sleep. Living in that small bungalow is not as comfortable as my own. The weather is too hot and there is no air-conditioning. It is still comfortable to stay in the clan space where the seasons are like spring.
Ye Xu slept with Yu Miao in his arms until the sun was high before getting up to see how his dungeon score was.
