Chapter 136: Great God, You Hurt Me

Mo Xiaobai knew that Fatty’s entire existence at that moment depended on the Lingzhi Wine. So, he decided to take the two of them to the Winery first.

At this time, the Winery was no longer just home to Yi Rong and Li Xun. After so many days of population refresh, besides the two of them, two other winemakers had appeared in the Winery.

With enough hands and abundant grain, the production of fermented wine was naturally much higher than before, and a second wine cellar, specifically built for storing wine, had already been constructed beside the first one.

“I will get a jar of Lingzhi Wine for you; you can taste my rice wine first.”

Since Mo Xiaobai had previously told Fatty that “the yield of Lingzhi Wine is extremely low,” he certainly could not let Fatty enter the wine cellar. He dropped the two of them at the Winery and turned to leave.

When Mo Xiaobai returned with the wine, he saw that Fatty Cheng and Bai Hualin were already drinking. He couldn’t help but smile and ask, “How does it taste?”

“It is mellow, fragrant, and particularly strong. It is indeed much better than the wine sold at the Juancheng Winery.” Fatty had tasted Lingzhi Wine before, but he gave the rice wine before him equally high praise.

Xiao Bai drank a few sips and her cheeks turned slightly red. “It’s good, very spicy. It’s a huge difference from the wine brewed in my home. Hoo~ Great God, this is amazing. It will definitely make money if sold outside.”

“Li Xun, bring some cold water.”

Seeing Xiao Bai’s tongue twisting from the alcohol, Mo Xiaobai shook his head in amusement, took a wooden ladle from Li Xun, and handed it to Xiao Bai. “Drink some water. If you can’t handle drinking, don’t drink so much. If you get drunk here, I won’t carry you back.”

“Tch, how could This Heroine ever get drunk!”

After gulping down a few mouthfuls of cold water, Xiao Bai recovered somewhat. She took a deep breath, put down the ladle holding the wine, and said, “I’m not drinking anymore. I’m not drinking anymore. I still have other places to visit.”

“Since I brought you here, I will definitely take you on a full tour.”

Mo Xiaobai nodded slightly, then looked at Fatty. “Boss Cheng, what about you? Do you want to rest at my manor first?”

Upon hearing this, Fatty shook his head. “No need. I still need to discuss some matters with Jun Xin. Do you know where she is living now?”

“Sure, I will take you there.”

Mo Xiaobai waved goodbye to everyone in the Winery and led the two of them towards the south of the Territory. As they walked all the way to the Dong Family Courtyard, Mo Xiaobai pointed to the courtyard ahead and said, “That is Dong Zhen’s residence.”

“Trouble you, Baron.”

Fatty nodded immediately, cradling the precious Lingzhi Wine in his arms, and stepped towards the Dong Family.

As soon as Fatty left, Xiao Bai, whose eyes were darting around, seemed to see something interesting. She pulled Mo Xiaobai’s arm and nodded her chin toward the distance. “What is that over there? It doesn’t look like a wooden house, does it?”

Over there?

Following Xiao Bai’s gaze, Mo Xiaobai couldn’t help but laugh.

It seemed that a building like a Projection Hall was really eye-catching in the Plane. The massive architectural complexes of the Martial Temple and the Academy had not caught Xiao Bai’s attention, but it was discovered first.

“That is my pride and joy. I will make my fortune in the future based on it.”

“Come on, I will take you to see my super cheat device.”

Cheat device?

Hearing Mo Xiaobai say this, Xiao Bai naturally associated it with the various methods Mo Xiaobai had used to lead the way.

Could there really be an external cheat?

With excitement shining in her eyes, she followed Mo Xiaobai as he walked quickly toward the Projection Hall, and her anticipation grew even stronger.

The Projection Hall before her was actually a modern building!

And it was a product of a technological civilization with built-in solar absorption!

This must be a BUG in Daming Village!

With a mind full of mischievous thoughts that she already knew the truth, Xiao Bai stepped into the Projection Hall. Before she could even say “I knew it,” the scene before her made her speechless.

“Player Forum?”

On the prominent Light Screen, page after page of Player Forum posts were displayed. And in front of the screen, many small wooden plaques of similar shapes were hanging.

“Great God, are you joking with me?”

Xiao Bai had come in with the mindset of finding a BUG, but was Mo Xiaobai just showing her this?

Who doesn’t have a Forum? Yours is just a bit bigger on the screen!

“Haha~ I’m really not joking. It is a Divine Artifact that allows NPCs to see the Forum as well.”

Mo Xiaobai had deliberately not mentioned this before just to see the change in Xiao Bai’s expression. Now that his mischievous desire had been satisfied, he immediately explained seriously.

A Forum that NPCs can see? It’s still just a Forum!

Could it bring people to life?

Xiao Bai felt that she had been deceived by the Great God. Her innocent and kind little heart was now shattered into pieces on the ground.

She looked at the Great God in front of her with gloomy eyes, only missing the line “You hurt me, and you just smile.”

Mo Xiaobai had no time to continue fooling around with Xiao Bai at the moment. He stepped forward. “Fengxiao, Ziyang, what have you figured out? What exactly did you discover in that post?”

“My Lord, Jia has the answer.”

Upon hearing Mo Xiaobai’s inquiry, Guo Jia nodded and replied immediately. “The Flying General had a very fruitful journey this time. Not only did he bring back Mandala grass, but he also made contact with the person looking for it.”

“Oh?”

Upon hearing this, Mo Xiaobai naturally looked at Li Guang.

The latter bowed slightly and began to recount his experience. “My Lord, when I went north this time, it took me five or six days to find the Mandala grass. Then I found the village that the Military Advisor mentioned. People in that village were going in and out, also searching for Mandala grass. However, those villagers were not skilled in Martial Arts, so they could not approach some slightly dangerous areas.”

“However, this subordinate led soldiers to kill hundreds of beasts on that mountain. Gradually, the villagers came over. This subordinate drove them away from the mountain, but unexpectedly, someone returned in the middle of the night and was discovered by one of this subordinate’s Scouts. Afterwards… afterwards, this subordinate was forced to kill all the intruders. Then, he brought back some Mandala grass to return and report to My Lord and the Military Advisor.”

Li Guang spoke quite concisely. After listening to him, Mo Xiaobai nodded slowly.

Overall, Li Guang’s northern expedition yielded a lot. Although he eventually had to take action, Mo Xiaobai did not care about such a small issue.

“My Lord, this is a military seal that this subordinate searched for from them, but it does not look like something from our Han Dynasty.” Li Guang added, then took out a small token.

The token was made of copper inlaid with jade. After playing with it for a while, Mo Xiaobai handed it to Guo Jia. “Fengxiao, do you know what this object is?”

“Jia does not know, but it is not difficult to guess.”

“Tell me your thoughts.”

“It is likely a product of the Great Song Dynasty, but definitely not an orthodox official item. It is a private identity credential.”

Guo Jia spoke with a smile, and then he shared the information he had organized. “My Lord asked Jia to start from that Forum post to investigate the sudden appearance of these Song people around us.”

“These people opened a food stall in the wilderness. Their purpose was certainly not to make money, but to wait for people. They were waiting for their traveling companions to bring back Mandala grass, and also waiting for people heading from the south to the Great Song.”

“Although I do not know exactly what they are planning, I am certain that the gang needs Mandala grass right now. Perhaps they intend to use tea water mixed with Mandala grass to carry out looting.”

“My Lord, is what Jia said correct?”

After finishing, Guo Jia looked at Mo Xiaobai and asked. Although it was a question, judging from Guo Jia’s expression, he was very certain.

However, before Mo Xiaobai could give a reply, Xiao Bai curiously interjected from the side. “This pattern, isn’t it just the prerequisite mission to start an Instance? Meet an NPC related to the Instance, get the Item to start the Instance, and finally go to the starting point of the Instance. I know this pattern very well. Next, there must be an Instance.”
