Chapter 6 Iron Tree Town
"The method of setting traps allows you to quickly level up. As everyone knows, the "Real Game" is a highly simulated game, and the experience of fighting monsters in previous games is completely useless here.
Because you can't find the monster, catch it, let alone kill it.
Under this premise, hunting methods are the key to upgrading. Here, I will teach you step by step how to set traps using local materials, so that you can upgrade quickly without any effort. ↓Click to expand”
Mo Lan took photos of his traps and fishing lines step by step, and turned the method of setting the traps into detailed steps with illustrations and then posted them.
After a while, a strategy post with the poster named Mo Lan appeared on the forum, attracting a lot of people's attention.
According to Mo Lan's observation, although these methods are simple, everyone has not yet come to terms with them and has not thought of this.
"I have learned it."
"I've wasted my time."
"Thank you, big man."
“Brain: I get it.
Hand: No, you won’t. ”
…
Soon there were several more comments and replies under the post. Mo Lan read them with great interest, liked the interesting ones, and only closed the forum reluctantly after a while.
In just a short period of time, his homepage had a lot more collections, which made him very happy.
"Let's get down to business next."
Mo Lan twisted his neck and walked directly down the stream. It took him a while to reach the end of the stream, where it merged into a river in a wilderness.
This is a small river about seven or eight meters wide. It doesn't look shallow and is surrounded by bushes and reeds.
Mo Lan struggled to make a path through the reeds and walked forward. After about half an hour, the reeds and bushes gradually became sparse, and some traces of human civilization could be seen slowly.
After a while, a long and narrow boat was found in the middle of the river, on which an old man was fishing.
"Hey, old man, this way, where is the nearest town?"
The fishermen were frightened when they saw this strange man. He looked strange and spoke strangely, but they still pointed in a direction from a distance.
"Iron Tree Town is over there."
"Okay, thank you, old man."
Mo Lan shouted loudly, and then walked directly towards Tieshu Town.
"Iron Tree Town? I haven't heard of it. It doesn't seem to be near Ding Jin. Never mind, I'll give it a call and ask."
As he spoke, Mo Lan made a few phone calls. Sure enough, none of his three college roommates were around. Instead, the other two were gathered together, seemingly working on some task.
He was walking and talking on the phone, and after he finished the call, Mo Lan had almost seen some buildings.
The stone buildings surprised Mo Lan, but when he saw the dilapidated thatched houses and earthen houses in the distance, he realized that this should be a decent place where civilians or craftsmen lived.
At the entrance of the village, Mo Lan saw a group of people holding wooden sticks, with rosy faces, laughing and giggling.
Obviously, these were all players. As soon as Mo Lan got close, he could hear them talking.
"Anyone want to go fishing with me?"
"What kind of fish are you fishing for? I heard that there is a bandit's nest about ten miles outside the town. I have a map. Is there anyone who has gone there to search? He is definitely experienced and will definitely make you rich overnight."
"Bandit's nest? Are we going to use our heads to fight? Fishing is still more practical. I just learned how to lay traps. I'll learn more after I reach level 2."
"Hey, it is said that now they have been upgraded to level three. I really don't know how they upgraded it."
Someone said with a hint of envy.
Mo Lan gradually walked away and soon his voice could no longer be heard.
Walking in the ancient town, looking at the people who are simply dressed and busy going about their business, if there were no players jumping on the muddy road, it would be like traveling through time.
Mo Lan walked with ease. After entering the town, he finally got rid of the leopard, which made him feel relaxed.
All the way before, the leopard had been following Mo Lan, making Mo Lan always on edge.
"I will definitely kill you."
After asking for directions several times, Mo Lan finally found a shop.
"how much is this."
Mo Lan asked, pointing at a can of black oil.
"Twenty copper nas."
The shop owner glanced at him expressionlessly.
"I want five cans. Can you make it cheaper?"
" I only have three and a half jars here. I'll give you eighty copper nas."
"Hmmmm???"
Several question marks popped up in Mo Lan's head, and he was full of the desire to complain.
"Why is it that the more I buy, the more expensive it is? I don't have enough money, can it be cheaper?"
"No money? Get away from me, or I'll call the law enforcement team."
Mo Lan, who was driven away, looked down and saw that his clothes had been torn out of many threads, and there were many claw marks and dirt marks, making him look like a beggar.
"All right."
He glanced at the shop owner with thick arms and shrugged helplessly.
"What can I do if I don't have money? A penny can make a hero fall, alas."
After touching the wolf skins on his back, Mo Lan found a leatherworker and exchanged them for twenty copper nas.
According to Mo Lan's understanding, the most common staple food in town, black bread, costs one copper nas per piece, and one piece is usually enough for one person to eat for a day, so twenty copper nas is not a small amount.
“The wolf skin didn’t look good, so I only got twenty copper nas. It’s not a small amount, but it’s only enough for a can oil. It hurts.
This shitty boss has no business sense at all. The more things you buy, the more expensive it becomes?
You think this is Mount and Blade!"
Mo Lan complained helplessly, his eyes looking around, and when he saw a tavern, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he thought of a way to make money quickly.
In the Nameless Tavern, a group of people gathered around a table with some wooden signs and small piles of copper nas on it.
These people were arguing with their faces red and showing their big yellow teeth. Behind them was a circle of people smoking and drinking, with smoke and a pungent smell of alcohol.
“Bang!”
Suddenly, the door of the tavern was kicked open with a loud clanging sound, which immediately broke the atmosphere here and attracted everyone's attention, making them look towards the door with dissatisfaction.
A ragged, dusty tramp walked in with an arrogant step, grabbed a handful of money from his jangling pocket and slapped it on the counter.
"Boss, bring out your best wine for me."
The boss, who was originally somewhat dissatisfied, suddenly softened his expression when he saw the money.
"Only ale, a copper a glass."
After saying that, he poured a glass of wine and placed it on the counter. The man picked up the glass and took a sip.
"Pah, pah, pah, what kind of crappy wine is this? I'm rich now, I won't drink this crappy wine."
"Forget it. I will be a resident of a big city soon. I will become a big shot. I won't bother with you and let you share in my happiness.
One cup for everyone!"
The man shouted heroically and took another sip of wine. His words immediately caused cheers from everyone, which made his face flush and he felt very satisfied.
"Don't worry about the change. Consider it a reward from me, eh."
The man burped, and the others came over and gave him hypocritical advice.
"This much money is enough for us to eat and use for a long time. If you want to reward us, just give us a reward. Money is hard to earn. Why don't you just keep it? It's not shameful."
When this person heard this, his brows immediately raised.
"A lot? Wait until I turn myself into a respectable person, then you will know what a lot is. Humph, let me put it away. I can't afford to lose face."
The man suddenly reacted, his expression became alert, he stopped drinking, snorted coldly, pushed away the people around him and quickly left the tavern.
After he left, the people around him ignored him, and their eyes gradually became greedy.
"I suddenly remembered that something happened at home, so I left first."
"It seems Barood has sneaked into my house again. I'll go back and take a look."
"Um, I'm going to go call Barood. I'm leaving first."
The people in the pub gradually dispersed and it became a little deserted.
