Chapter 663 Must Die (1/2)

The red flames leaped and devoured.

The black trees looked a little scary, but they were the best materials for making fire. The flames on them were bright and warm, and they would release a reassuring aroma.

A group of people sat around the fire, greedily smelling the aroma released from the fire, feeling full and sleepy.

Zhang Ting also sat by the fire.

But unlike the others, he sat on the hay that the others had laid, and he was in the warmest place, which made him warm all over.

The shiny axe was next to him, and several men who also held axes stood by him, protecting him inside.

The others looked at Zhang Ting with envy, but when they looked at the fate of those who were expelled from the fire, their eyes were filled with some fear.

Stretching out his hand, Zhang Ting felt the temperature of the flames, and then looked up at the outside of the village.

There, some of the expelled people had been frozen into ice sculptures, and jackdaws landed on them, looking coldly at the people by the fire.

Those ice sculptures had not participated in logging or making fire before, and later threatened Zhang Ting to give up the fire.

Zhang Ting was not polite to these guys. He directly chopped down one of them, and then threw the rest out of the village, leaving them to freeze into ice sculptures.

In troubled times, severe punishments should be used. These useless guys must be cleared out as soon as possible, and they must not be allowed to interfere with their future plans.

One-tenth of the trees nearby have been chopped down, and the rest can be chopped down in two days, but what should be done after the trees are chopped down?

The jackdaws have been preparing to land here. These evil things seem to only want to kill them, making Zhang Ting unable to understand what they want to do.

Just as Zhang Ting was staring at the fire and thinking, he felt that the surroundings seemed to be dark.

He stood up suddenly. Just as he was about to find out what happened, he heard a mysterious voice in his ear: "It's dawn. You have spent a safe day."

"The fog has dispersed a little. There are more places you can investigate. Explore new areas actively. There may be what you want."

Looking around, Zhang Ting saw that the foggy area had dispersed, revealing the true appearance inside.

It was a farmland of moderate size. Several skinny oxen stood in the farmland, looking around listlessly.

Staring at the farmland, Zhang Ting felt more and more weird.

What does this place want to do?

What does that weird voice want to do?

All kinds of mysteries bothered him, making him want to sit down and solve the mystery, but a man interrupted his train of thought.

Pointing to the farmland not far away, the man shouted excitedly: "Boss! Look there! There are cows! And they are still charming cows!"

"I think you are really hungry."

"How did you know!" The man became more and more excited.

"You'd better be really hungry. Don't eat the cows, I'm still useful."

"Don't worry, boss, we know! If there's anything good, boss, come first!"

Looking at the wretched man, Zhang Ting didn't know if he was sick or seriously ill.

Can you speak properly!

Knowing that he still had a chance to go back to death, Zhang Ting felt that he could be more carefree.

He walked towards the farmland, picked up the soil in the farmland and observed it.

Although he was not a farmer, he vaguely felt that he seemed to have planted fields before, and he could tell that this field was good and the soil was fertile.

And this soil had been cultivated in advance, the soil was black and fluffy, very suitable for planting crops.

After confirming the situation here, Zhang Ting waved his hand and shouted to his people: "Those who know how to plant, come here!"

Several people carrying hoes rushed over, and began to observe the situation here under Zhang Ting's instructions, and got the same judgment as Zhang Ting:

This place is suitable for planting things!

After confirming that the soil was good, several people immediately began to dig the soil and plant crops excitedly. Soon, they saw green plants emerging from the soil and began to thrive.

Although it felt that the speed of the crops was too fast, it was normal for this place to be so strange.

Although the aroma released when the black curtain burned could keep people from being hungry, if they could eat normal things, it would be more helpful to improve morale.

The cows were also taken away and fed, and the originally skinny oxen began to grow strong. With the addition of these cows, the reclamation of arable land became more convenient, and the food of the entire village was no longer in short supply.

With enough food, the next thing was fuel.

The flames could effectively relieve the cold and drive away the jackdaws, but the black wood nearby was limited after all, and it would be difficult to replenish it if it was gone.

For this reason, Zhang Ting began to study the daily fuel ratio and calculate how to burn the black wood to achieve the maximum efficiency.

New woodyards were also dug out, and various useful tools were developed, allowing their efficiency to increase rapidly every day.

With his continuous arrangements, the entire village prospered.

Clothes made of linen can resist the severe cold, and houses made of stones can effectively prevent jackdaws. A village began to take shape, and Zhang Ting was the founder of the village.

Although the village developed very rapidly, Zhang Ting was always a little uneasy.

This work was compiled and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~

He still remembered the scene he saw before his death during his first reincarnation. The white illusion was among them, but now it has not revealed its true colors.

If that thing doesn't come out, he won't feel at ease. He can only constantly strengthen the situation in all aspects and hope that the other party will come.

This problem bothered him and prevented him from getting a complete rest every day.

Therefore, when the mysterious voice sounded, he felt relieved.

"Your village has developed very well, and it's time to enter the next stage."

"In the next stage, all kinds of strange events will happen more frequently. Compared with them, jackdaws are the most insignificant threat. Food and fuel will be in a state of extreme shortage, and death will become commonplace."

"Human lives will become the currency in your hands. Every choice will give you clues to solve the puzzle, but it may also take away a large number of villagers."

"Now, are you ready?"

After hearing this voice, Zhang Ting breathed a sigh of relief.

The voice was as plain as ever, but the combined content had a fatal attraction.

There are too many mysteries in this place, and each one made Zhang Ting scratch his head and kept him awake at night.

Why did they fall into this place, what exactly was that voice, how could the crops here grow so fast, and what exactly was the illusion he saw?

He felt that he was born with an urge to seek answers, but the price of these answers gave him a headache.

After a long pause, he couldn't help but ask, "Will someone die?"

"Definitely. The dangers you will encounter later cannot be solved so easily. Death will be the norm, but it may also bring you good rewards."

"A terrifying star god admires your courage and is even willing to pay for every villager who dies, as long as you can satisfy his hungry and bloodthirsty desire."

"In addition, another star god hopes that you will live longer."

"And that is..."

Hearing the names of the star gods one by one, Zhang Ting felt that his understanding of this place was deepening, but it also gave him a headache.

No matter how you listen, this place is a place where you must die.
