My farm does not raise idle dragons

At around ten o'clock in the evening, Lu Xi had just put on the hot water and was about to take a nice bath before going to bed when he heard Cross's voice coming from the yard.

After putting on a temporary coat and walking out of the room, Lu Xi saw Cross at the door of the yard, shouting until he started coughing.

The gate of the courtyard was some distance away from the two-story foreign-style building. Cross didn't dare to step into the courtyard without permission. If he wanted to alarm Lu Xi, he could only shout loudly at the gate of the courtyard.

This was actually an extremely disrespectful behavior, but Cross was too anxious to even care about this disrespect. If he could find those children, Cross was willing to accept any punishment.

Fortunately, Lu Xi didn't care about this. He opened the courtyard door and asked Cross to come in and answer questions to find out what happened.

The weather was getting colder and she couldn't stand outside in her pajamas. Let's hear Cross' answer.

The house had been renovated, and all the furniture was fully furnished. Cross did not dare to listen to Lu Xi's words and sat directly on the chair that looked very expensive at first glance. Instead, he stood bent over with a slightly reserved posture.

I didn't even dare to look up for a second look.

Lu Xi made the living room quite spacious, mainly to make it easier for Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo to enter and exit. If there are too many pieces of furniture, they will easily get stuck.

He poured a glass of water and handed it to Cross. Cross's arms trembled. This was really a great gift.

"Moisten your throat before we talk." Lu Xi didn't want to hear Cross report the situation to her in a hoarse voice. Firstly, Cross himself felt uncomfortable speaking, and secondly, Lu Xi felt uncomfortable listening to his hoarse voice.

"Yes, yes." Cross nervously shook the cup in his hand. The white and translucent water cup highlighted the color of his dark arms. After noticing this, his arms couldn't help but tremble again.

Noticing that Lu Xi was still looking at him, Cross gritted his teeth and poured a glass of water into his stomach, not caring about choking. After his throat was moistened by the water and he felt less uncomfortable, Cross opened his mouth to talk about the matter. go through.

Because there were injured people and Lu Xi canceled the order to go out, Cross and the others only conducted some simple training throughout the afternoon and did not go out again.

And when Marco took his people out to hunt the monsters they had attracted, he really didn't take the opportunity to run away. When he came back at night, he brought back the corpses of many monsters.

The hunting speed and results are much better than those of Zhuo Zuo and Xiao Yuan. After all, Marco is also an intermediate elemental warrior with so many subordinates.

Lu Xi didn't want Marco to come close to his courtyard, so he asked Marco and the others to pile up the monsters they had hunted back in the square and deal with them themselves.

Cross didn't have much knowledge and couldn't guess anything after seeing the situation in Lu Xi's courtyard. But Marco was different. He had been with Mayor Sienqi for many years and was more familiar with many things about the nobility than Lu Xi. Xi was worried about being noticed.

Therefore, although many things on the monster's body were valuable and could be exchanged for money, such as horns, teeth, bones, fur, and even "whips", Lu Xi was not moved.

Compared with Lingxuan Farm, the value of a few monsters really didn't make her heart beat. If she was really heart-throbed, Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo could still go hunting.

The cause of the matter was that Marco and the others hunted too many monsters, and they were not used to working, so they were a little busy for a while.

Marco is a smart man. He can see Miss Lucy's friendly attitude towards this group of slaves, which to a certain extent also indicates his attitude towards this group of slaves next.

In addition, he would have to live with this group of slaves for a long time in the future, so he made up his mind that he must have a good relationship. Even if he didn't have a good relationship, he couldn't let Miss Lucy see it.

Therefore, Marco entrusted part of the processing of monsters to Cross, a group of slaves, and the reward was the meat of these monsters.

Although the monster Lucy had given them before had not yet been completely eaten, the food that she had obtained through her own labor was definitely different from the food that Miss Lucy had given her.

The former means that they can survive on their own strength, but the latter can only rely on charity from others.

So Cross agreed very happily, and arranged for almost everyone in Xinwa Village to help. Seeing this, Marco even proposed to hold a small campfire dinner, using these monster meats as the staple food.

Of course no one would refuse this kind of good thing, but Marco overlooked one thing, that is, the place where he held the bonfire dinner was in the square of Lingxu Farm. The only things that could be used to light the bonfire were making tents or furniture, and the rest Some wood coming down.

He cannot touch any plant or tree in Lingnan Farm.

But this isn't really a problem. Just send some people out to collect firewood and other things outside Lingnan Farm.

This can be said to be the first important event that everyone encounters after arriving at Lingyan Farm, so everyone is full of eager expectations.

The adults were completely busy and neglected to take care of the children. A few half-year-old children followed one adult to carry water and then followed that adult to carry and wash vegetables.

I was so busy that I forgot who called the children over to help.

It wasn't until everything was ready and the bonfire party was about to begin that someone finally discovered that the children were missing.

The adults looked at each other, but they didn't even know when the child had disappeared, and then they became anxious.

Before coming to Lu Xi again, Cross had already searched the entire Lingnan Farm with his people. Although they could not enter many buildings and rooms, it also meant that the children could not hide there.

After walking around the entire Lingbo Farm, he couldn't find any of these children. Cross had a bad idea in his heart - Miss Lucy had told him that Lingbo Farm was close to the Dark Night Forest, and there were many The passage can lead to the dark night forest. During the day, you don't need to worry too much. Just come out in time, but don't stay in it after ten o'clock at night.

The reason why Lu Xi told Cross these things was because Cross and the others wanted to live in Lingxuan Farm for a period of time and explain the dangerous places in advance to reduce possible accidents.

——Look, an accident just happened.

Cross has confirmed that these children did not leave the farm from the entrance of Lingbo Farm, so the only possibility is that they accidentally entered the entrance of the Dark Night Forest, so they could not be found on the farm.

With no other choice, Cross had to come over and seek help from Miss Lucy.

After Lu Xi heard this, her expression changed. She had been reminded many times by the residents of the farm not to enter the dark forest after 10 p.m.

Looking at the clock on the wall, it was already ten forty. If it was for his own safety, Lu Xi should go to the dark forest to check the situation tomorrow morning.

In that case, Lu Xi himself would be absolutely safe, but the safety of those children could not be guaranteed.

According to Cross, the time when those children disappeared should be about two hours. The earlier they are found, the higher the possibility of their safety. If they really have to wait until tomorrow morning, the disaster will definitely be worse.For Lu Xi to ignore the safety of those children... she couldn't do it.

After closing her eyes, Lu Xi thought of the "player protection" patch that had been installed after the last game system update. This patch could remind her of the dangers she would encounter next. When she encountered fatal danger, she would be teleported directly back to the farm.

Since he can't die, what should he be afraid of? Lu Xi cheered himself up. There were less than six hours until four in the morning, and with the "Snow White's Crystal Coffin" prop, there was no need to worry at all even if he was injured.

Moreover, hasn't she always wanted to know what would happen in the dark forest after ten o'clock at night? This is an opportunity to explore!

"Go and call Marco and the others over." After making up her mind, Lu Xi stood up. With a group of ready-made coolies like Marco at her command, she would not let them go.

Compared to exploring the Dark Night Forest alone with Zhuo Zuo and Xiao Yuan, it would definitely be easier to have a group of elemental warriors and elemental mages guarding them.

While Cross went back to call Marco over, Lu Xi also began to arm himself. First, he equipped himself with all the elemental weapons with defensive attributes that he had purchased before. Second, he began to check the props in the system backpack.

Adjust the props that may be useful or useful to the most conspicuous position, so that when an accident occurs, these props can be taken out as soon as possible.

After changing into clothes that were easy to move and very warm, Lu Xi took Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo out of the courtyard and happened to see Marco and the others coming.

Marco felt like he was vomiting blood and dying. The bonfire party that was originally held to build a relationship had not even started yet, but something like this happened. Instead of getting a good impression, he was in trouble. He might as well have done nothing. .

After seeing Miss Lucy, Marco stepped forward to salute very humbly, lowering his sense of existence repeatedly, trying not to let Miss Lucy think of anything and blame him again.

Lu Xi didn't pay much attention to Marco, and his eyes fell on the two low-level elemental mages behind Marco, "Are they two okay?"

Marco was stunned for a moment, then realized that Miss Lu Xi was not concerned about the physical condition of these two people, but whether they could still play their due role in the future.

"It's okay, it's okay." Marco replied quickly. Of course, it's not easy to recover from overdraft of elemental power, but Marco has an item in his hand that can replenish elemental power, so he doesn't feel guilty when he says it.

In order to gain a good impression in front of Miss Lucy, he was willing to go all out.

Lu Xi didn't think too much. Seeing that Annie and the male low-level elemental mage named Dov were not as weak as before, he nodded and walked into the dark night forest with more than 20 people.

As for Cross and other ordinary people, even if Cross himself strongly requested to follow, Lu Xi did not agree.

An ordinary person with no abilities would be risking death by following her. After all, she had two monster cubs to protect herself and a bunch of defensive elemental magic weapons on her body.

As soon as he stepped into the dark night forest, Lu Xi instantly noticed something different.

In the forest during the day and night, although there are changes in the wind blowing the leaves, the change is very mechanical and a fixed change. For example, every 10 minutes there will be a fixed gust of wind blowing, and each leaf will be blown up. What a height.

However, the dark forest at night is different. All the changes in the surrounding environment have become "random". The wind is blowing low, not strong, but full of chill. The leaves are blown in a small arc, but the sound is loud. Very permeable.

Looking at the clean and tidy road during the day, it became blurred in the shadows of the night. For a moment, Lu Xi couldn't tell whether this was his own illusion.

The topography of the Dark Night Forest is in the shape of a square "mouth". The place where Lu Xi entered the Dark Night Forest is to the south of the "kou".

Because the terrain is simple, whether you walk from the east or the west, you can return to the entrance after a circle.

Lu Xi glanced at the people behind him. Of course, they had a lot of people here. The most time-saving plan was to divide into two teams, search from the east and west sides, and finally meet at the other end of the map.

This saves at least half the time.

Without any hesitation, Lu Xi immediately divided the team into two groups after having the idea of ​​detachment.

Two low-level elemental mages led 18 low-level elemental warriors to the east, while Marco, an intermediate elemental warrior, followed Lu Xi and the two cubs to the west.

Among them, Marco's power is the strongest. He realizes that if he encounters danger, he can still escape alone with Miss Lucy, and the others can only be regarded as burdens.

Marco did not completely ignore these people. Taking advantage of the break in the grouping, he handed Annie and Dove his prop that could replenish elemental power. This way, even if they encounter any danger, they can cope with it with the added elemental power. .

Lu Xi had no intention of pushing out the powerful bodyguards, and approved of this grouping. Although when she encountered danger, she could let Zhuo Zhuo take her into the air to escape, but she still felt safe with someone with enough fighting ability beside her. of.

Lu Xi has already explained the topographic map of the Dark Night Forest to everyone. There are gathering places for four kinds of monsters in the Dark Night Forest. Starting from the west are the red-feathered chicken, wind shadow rabbit, diamond wild boar, and sand rat.

During the day, there is no need to worry about the threat of these monsters, but that is not necessarily the case at night.

After meeting the red-feathered and white-feathered chickens, Lu Xi's heart sank the moment he saw them. As expected, these red-feathered and white-feathered chickens "came to life."

It was no longer like it was daytime, repeating the same actions mechanically, but walking around more casually, and even quickly discovered Lu Xi and his group who were approaching.

Before Lu Xi entered the dark night forest, he had thought about the dangers he might encounter in it. The most likely one was that the monsters living in it would "come back to life". Otherwise, he would not have imagined what changes would happen to him. create a threat.

But the good news is probably that these four monsters in the dark night forest are all ordinary monsters, and there are no low-level monsters that can use elemental magic, which greatly reduces their threat level.

There was no need to take action. There were two low-level monsters, Xiao Yuan and Zhuo Zhuo. After sensing their aura, the red-feathered and white-feathered chickens ran away, not daring to confront them at all.

Even if Zhuo Zhuo uses the disguise of a dragon bird beast, he is still full of threats to this group of ordinary monsters.

It was even easier when passing by the Wind Shadow Rabbit's territory. Lu Xi didn't even see a Wind Shadow Rabbit coming out. It might have appeared, but her dynamic vision was not enough to catch the Wind Shadow Rabbit.

But looking at the reactions of Marco and the two cubs next to him, Lu Xi guessed that it was probably the Wind Shadow Rabbit that didn't come out at all.

As they walked farther and farther, they still couldn't find any trace of the children. Lu Xi felt more and more uneasy, hoping that there would be some good news from the team on the other side.

Dark Night Forest, when did I write Dark Forest...sluggishness?
