163: Chapter 162: Heart-to-Heart 163: Chapter 162: Heart-to-Heart “The Qingshan Town style on the forum is especially dreamy, like something out of a fairy tale.

I wonder if it’s real?” Lin Zhixiu quickly shifted her thoughts, it was impolite to ask too much about Mu Ying’s personal issues, but inquiring about Qingshan Town should be fine.

Mu Ying particularly enjoyed when others praised her territory, since she had built it from the ground up herself.

She was also happy to talk about it, “Because the territory is located in the forest, we mostly use wooden materials, and the residential buildings are all Tree Houses.

When I was designing it, I did refer to the style of tree houses in fairy tales.

The Transmission Array is open, and you’re welcome to come and see Qingshan Town for yourself.”

“I’m so looking forward to it!” Lin Zhixiu exclaimed.

Others also began to ask about the specifics of Qingshan Town.

As the most cohesive, popular, and desirable Main Territory in the Xia Country Region and even globally, they had all seen rumors about Qingshan Town on the internet.

Many of these pieces of information were hard to verify, but now that Mu Ying herself was here, it was the perfect opportunity to get confirmation.

Li Luoxia asked, “I heard that Qingshan Town now has three Sub-camps?

And they’re divided into planting, breeding, and quarrying with different functions?”

Mu Ying answered, “Yes, I prefer to use Sub-camps to enclose resource points to facilitate productive activities for the residents.

However, I’ve also enclosed a large piece of land in the planting camp for myself, almost as big as your manor.

Being a Druid, farming is a must.”

Li Luoxia agreed, “Indeed, if Luoxia Village had a Quarry Camp, we could save a lot of money on building stone houses.”

Xiong Gang inquired, “I heard that the residents of Qingshan Town get free vegetables to eat?

No one goes hungry there?”

Mu Ying clarified, “That’s a rumor.

During the continuous rainy period, many people lacked savings and couldn’t go out to hunt or gather because of the weather, so even eating was a problem.

That’s when I organized people to open up small vegetable gardens in the public areas of the territory.

While it’s true that anyone can pick from them, it’s definitely not enough to feed everyone.

Since everyone participated in planting, there’s a strong sense of ownership, and they only rely on the gardens for relief when times are tough.”

Li Xihe asked, “I heard that Qingshan Town is filled with lots of Mushroom Men?

And they can project movies?

Is that true?”

Mu Ying confirmed, “Yes, it’s true.

They’re called Mushroom Men and come from an instance.

I have reached an understanding with their leader and moved the instance into our territory.

They’re a very cute race, the entire race can connect through consciousness without any secrets.

The so-called movies are created using their ability within consciousness.”

Li Luoxia commented, “Instances can move?

Speaking of instances, we also discovered one on the snow line of Luoxia Mountain.

Someone peeked inside and it was a huge Snow Mountain.

They were frightened out by a deafening roar as soon as they entered.

We were discussing whether or not to go in and check it out before you came!”

Mu Ying seemed very interested in this and shared the information she knew.

“As long as the core creature in the instance agrees, players can move the instance core.

The Mushroom Man instance was moved like this.

To my knowledge, instances are like Half-planes attached to the Main World, and the creatures inside are much stronger than the outside world.

However, only creatures from instances that are slightly lower level than the players can come out through the Replica gate.

Creatures inside might be enemies or they can become friends.

Such a mechanism is actually for the protection of players.

One day, the entire instance will merge with the Main World and become a part of it, by then we probably won’t be so vulnerable anymore.

So personally, I am not willing to explore hostile instances at this Stage because it’s easy to suffer significant casualties without understanding the situation.

It’s better to guard the Replica gate and gradually weaken the opposition’s strength.

There’s a Ghoul instance near Qingshan Town.

We discovered it a long time ago and were forced out after just a glance inside.

Since then, we’ve only been killing the Ghouls that come out of it.”

Li Luoxia seemed thoughtful.

Wu Qingshan, who had been in a bad mood after losing face due to Li Luoxia’s scolding, began to look more relaxed upon hearing Mu Ying’s sincere advice.

As the main person in charge of scouting in the team, he was the first to enter the instance and explore.

He faced that voice directly, feeling it most deeply, because he understood more clearly that Mu Ying was truly considering their best interests.

Recognizing his mistake, Wu Qingshan was not a petty man.

He sprang to his feet, walked over to Mu Ying, and apologized, “I’m sorry, I was thinking too poorly of you previously.

Thank you for your suggestion.”

“It’s alright, without your question, I wouldn’t have been able to express my sincerity to Sister Li so quickly.

I should be thanking you!” Mu Ying joked with a laugh, giving him an approving look.

“You should be careful with Zhou Hongfei; I feel his posts on the forum might have ulterior motives.

But after meeting you today, I think his plans will fall through.

Your maturity doesn’t seem like that of a high school student who hasn’t graduated yet,” Wu Qingshan said, unable to help considering for her once he acknowledged her.

Mu Ying accepted his kindness and became more favorable towards him, realizing that despite his sharp tongue, his heart wasn’t bad.

Lin Zhixiu joined the fun, “I feel Zhou Hongfei’s words seem to be aimed more at you personally, rather than at your Qingshan Town.

I’ve heard he is quite a handsome guy; perhaps he wants to charm you.

Don’t be fooled, and take a good look at other handsome guys to cleanse your eyes.

Don’t let someone deceive you.

Remember Sister’s words; you can’t judge a person solely by their appearance!

If he dares to mess with you, just call us sisters in the Luoxia Team, and we’ll help you beat him up!”

“Right!

I, Li Luoxia, acknowledge you as a sister.

If anything happens, just call out to me!” Li Luoxia also stated her position.

The others all nodded in agreement.

Even the usually silent and reticent Li Luori was no exception.

The figurine Shi Yin also squeezed Mu Ying’s little finger.

“Beat him up!” Li Xihe suddenly waved a fist.

Mu Ying laughed, patted Xiao Xihe on the head, and then said to the others, “Thank you for your concern, but Brother Qingshan is right.

I’m not so easily fooled, and don’t underestimate my martial power!

I dare to travel alone across most of Xia Country!”

She suddenly felt very fortunate to have chosen Luoxia Village and to have met these lovely people.

Li Luoxia had a good eye; her teammates were all of sound character.

The atmosphere instantly lightened.

Xiong Gang picked up a knife and sliced off the charred surface of the meat, “The first plate is for our guest from afar.

Come on, try old Bear’s cooking!”

Mu Ying took a piece and tasted it, “Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, delicious!”

Xiong Gang laughed heartily, “The second plate goes to our little Xi He!”

“Thank you, Uncle Xiong!” Xi He took her portion and asked, “Sister Mu, can Gungun eat this?”

Gungun looked at its own master who was only concerned with eating: Look at them!

“Yes, he can,” Mu Ying replied as she stuffed a piece of meat into Gungun’s mouth.

Gungun chewed with his cheeks puffed out: Delicious!
