Chapter 54 The Monster in the Barn (Additional update for Alliance Leader Retrograde)
Considering the price of this hound, this dog cannot be squandered casually.
The two of them could only do what they did yesterday, one using combat skills and the other doing last-ditch attacks when the Scarecrow was about half health, while the two dogs could only stay aside.
At least Meatball could bark twice and act as an atmosphere group, but Broken Tooth could only watch.
Fortunately, the two of them were already quite proficient in this routine. They took turns to use their combat skills and restore their physical strength. This way, they didn't even have to take Dali Pills and could ensure that they wouldn't be burned by the Scarecrow's ultimate move.
He chopped down more than twenty scarecrows in one go, but there was no intention of killing demons around him.
Xiao Jie wondered whether this demon was spawned by killing the scarecrow? Does it take another hour or two for it to appear?
boom! Another scarecrow was hacked to death, and a necklace exploded.
Xiao Jie picked it up and looked at it. It turned out to be a pure white board.
[Gold Necklace (Accessory)
Attributes: None.
Item introduction: It is a necklace made of gold. Although it has no practical use, the gold itself is its value. It can be sold at a store for a good price, or it can be given to NPCs to increase their favorability. 】
It can be used to increase favorability, but it can't be said to be completely useless.
I'm thinking about who to give it to.
I heard a familiar voice in the distance.
"This is my farm, this is my land. Where did you come from? How dare you take my things? I don't want to live anymore!"
As soon as the two turned around, they saw a middle-aged aunt with an ominous black air rushing out of the wheat field in the distance, waving a kitchen knife and rushing towards the two of them. It was Tian Li.
Hey! An idea flashed in Xiao Jie's mind. He remembered that it was Tian Li who had made a bronze ring yesterday.
Just after the necklace was revealed today, the Tian Li family appeared again. Is there any connection between this?
Yes, Tian Bao once talked about his ancestors before. Tian Li is the housekeeper of the Tian family. With her, no one will take away any grass or trees. Could it be a scarecrow? The explosion of jewelry attracted her out.
Doesn't that mean that the other two Tian family members can also be lured out using similar methods?
Thinking in his mind, it did not prevent Xiao Jie from fighting. He raised his shield to block and swung his sword to kill. The two hounds finally came into use. They swarmed up, one bit the leg, the other choked, and beat him four times. The result of one is to win it instantly.
This time, instead of releasing keys and kitchen knives, a skill book was released - well, let's call it a skill book.
【Garden Scones (recipe)
Learning requirements: Prerequisite skills - cooking (entry).
Item introduction: A recipe that records how to make pastoral scones. This is a scone made with wheat flour and vegetables. It is full of pastoral flavor and is a common delicacy in rural areas. 】
"this……"
Xiao Jie was speechless for a moment, he could really drop anything. This thing can’t be said to be useless. At least after learning it, you can make some scones and eat it yourself instead of eating instant noodles all the time.
"Gold necklace or recipe book, which one do you want?"
"I still want the gold necklace."
Xiao Jie nodded and divided the two things.
After finishing the assignment, he was not in a hurry to continue leveling. Instead, he looked at the notes on the side and started thinking.
"What's wrong, Brother Feng? Keep practicing."
"I'm thinking about how to open the door of the ancestral home. According to the information I collected in the morning, the key to opening the ancestral home should be three members of the Tian family, Tian Li, Tian Daniu, and Mr. Tian.
I think I have found the spawning pattern of demons. I remember that we also got a bronze ring yesterday, and then this bitch spawned. This is definitely not a coincidence.
There are three people in the Tian family, Tian Li is the housekeeper, Tian Daniu is martial, and Mr. Tian is very frugal...
What’s the best food in your bag? "
"Smoked wild boar."
"Throw a piece on the ground."
I wanted to become an immortal and did it without saying a word.
The two of them looked at the wild boar meat on the ground. Meat Ball and Broken Tooth also stared at the wild boar meat intently.
The two people and the two dogs just stared around the wild boar meat. Time passed by, one minute, two minutes, five minutes, ten minutes. There was no movement, only the sound of the balls flowing.
Meatball: Master, what does this wild meat mean? You want to give me something to eat, right? I'm not welcome.
"Don't eat it!" Xiao Jie stopped him, wondering if I had made a mistake?
The bacon finally slowly disappeared at this time, but it was refreshed by the system.
The flesh ball whined when I saw it, it was heartbreaking.
The next second, a lean old man in a long gown and a bamboo hat appeared out of thin air, his face full of black energy, and he was waving a cane in his hand.
Mr. Tian (Devil), level 8, health value 160.
Mr. Tian (Devil): "Oh, such a good thing is wasted like this. Let me teach you two bastards a lesson."
As he spoke, he waved his cane and rushed towards the two of them.
Xiao Jie was not surprised but happy, his idea was indeed right!
The housekeeper of Tian Li family cannot allow others to take away the drops in the wheat field.
Mr. Tian was naturally frugal, so he came out when he saw the food being refreshed.
That Tian Daniu should also be elicited using a similar method.
At this time, the battle had broken out. The fighting power of Mr. Tian was not as good as that of Mr. Tian Li. His legs were dragged down by two dogs. I wanted to become an immortal and smashed the stone with a slash, and fell to the ground without Xiao Jie's attack. Fight resolved.
The old man was not very strong in combat and was cut down to the ground in two or three blows.
A key and a hat were revealed.
【Barn Key(Key)
Use: Open the barn door.
Item introduction: A rusty key can be used to open the corresponding door lock. 】
[Old man's hat (helmet)
Head defense +3.
Equipment special effect: The wisdom of the old man. Comprehension +1.
Item introduction: A broken bamboo hat can give people a somewhat profound feeling when worn. Perhaps this old bamboo hat also contains some wisdom that has been ignored. 】
This bamboo hat was taken down by Xiao Jie. I want to become an immortal and have a leather helmet, but I don't need this kind of whiteboard equipment.
Xiao Jie, on the other hand, knows how to understand. Although it is only a little bit, it is better than nothing.
Putting the bamboo hat on his head, looking at the figure holding the wild goose feather knife and wearing the bamboo hat on his head, he really looks like a swordsman in the world.
This barn key can come in handy immediately.
The two came to the barn. Xiao Jie looked at the barn door and wondered, could the entrance to the cellar be inside the barn? It doesn't feel like much.
Logically speaking, it should be in the Tian family mansion, so what would be in the barn?
Looking at the barn door in front of him, Xiao Jie couldn't help but become wary.
"Get ready, there may be a fight - Meatball, come to me." He said uncertainly.
I wanted to become a fairy and responded, standing at the door with the broken-toothed dog, holding a battle ax, ready to fight at any time.
Xiao Jie also restored his physical strength to full strength, moved his fingers to ensure that he was in perfect condition, and then clicked on the lock of the barn door.
Click! With the sound of the lock opening, the barn door was slowly pushed open.
The moment the door opened, a row of densely packed red eyes appeared in the darkness, which startled Xiao Jie.
Inside those small red eyes, there was actually a pair of big red eyes. He couldn't see how big the monster was in the darkness. He instinctively stepped back. When the monster emerged from the darkness, Xiao Jie had already prepared it. Even though I was mentally prepared for encountering a monster, I was still shocked.
It was a huge rat that was more than three meters long, about the size of a bull. Its gray-black fur was somewhat ulcerated, making it even more ugly. Its scarlet eyes flashed with the ferocity of choosing and devouring others.
Bone Chewer (obese giant rat), level 9, HP 500.
day! A BOSS actually appeared.
PS: I still owe two more updates.
