Chapter 609
"Prologue, Stardew Valley Pelican Village and new friends."
Rin looked at the familiar name, and the small smile completely disappeared from his face.
He felt something bad in his heart, his face was half blue, and his liver was aching.
This damn name is filled with a sense of déjà vu!
Is it possible that the new copy still wants them to farm?
wow! In the game, he can survive farming for a month, but in reality, one day may cost him half his life.
Rin quickly asked Fei Miao to open the observation eye and take a look at his panel attributes.
Fortunately, the terrible situation did not happen.
Although his panel has changed drastically from the beginning, it is still the main battle panel.
It's nice that there isn't a farming skill slot popping up out of the blue.
"Are you...new here, or travelers?"
Suddenly, a man's voice came from beside him.
He was an old man over sixty years old, well-dressed and quite decent, with a kind face.
Rin nodded slightly towards the other party: "He is a tourist, I guess."
"I am the village chief here. If you have any questions or need help in the village, you can come to me."
"Besides, I see that you are all young masters and ladies from big cities. It is getting late and it is too dangerous to travel at night."
"There is no hotel in the village, and you may not be used to living in ordinary houses."
"But if you keep going along the road, you can see a manor. The owner there is very generous and welcomes travelers, especially those with status. You can stay overnight there."
After saying the standard opening remarks for game NPCs, the village chief pointed them in the direction.
"Thank you, Grandpa Village Chief!"
Momo replied happily.
Watching the other party leave on crutches, Elise pulled Rin's sleeve.
"Xiao Lin, are we going to the place he said? Are there any traps or something?"
"How can the plot unfold if you don't go there? Don't worry, Roe Deer. This young master is no longer what he used to be. I can take you through the levels casually."
Rin snapped her fingers confidently.
Several people followed what the village chief said and headed towards the manor.
He was also observing these villagers along the way.
It seems that as the number of layers increases, the size of the domain is also getting larger, and it can accommodate more undead.
Each of these undead souls are still maintaining their previous jobs, and they don't know the fact that they are dead.
Seeing them, the villagers cast curious glances.
There were even two idle young men with yellow hair following them from a distance.
Rin didn't bother to care about these two delinquent youths. After arriving at the manor, the two left.
In front of the gate of the manor, two guards wearing knight armor stood.
There are gardeners busy going back and forth in the front garden.
Rin walked up to the guard and said, "Can I stay at your master's house for one night?"
The guard looked Rin up and down all night and gave a seemingly kind smile.
"Please wait a moment, I will inform my master."
After saying that, he took the waist knife and ran into the main hall.
Not long after, the wooden door of the main hall was opened again, and a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a purple tuxedo walked out.
The moment he saw him, Silly Roe Deer secretly leaned into Lin's ear.
"This person...no, this A'Piao exudes the same smell as the one named Irene I met for the first time."
In the dead city, Silly Roe Deer's passive talent of being able to distinguish between good and evil was greatly chopped off.
Because there is death and malice everywhere here, which greatly disturbs her.
However, with Irene as a comparison, we can still make some judgments.
The guard was the first to run to the door and pushed the gate open.
"Our Lord Baron is the most hospitable. Guests can come in."
The four of them stepped in through the gate, and the baron also opened his arms and walked to the fountain in the small garden with a smile.
"Dear distinguished guests, since we are friends from afar, welcome to my home."
Chapter 156: Is there a useless meow too?
This baron seemed very hospitable, just as the village chief said.
Coupled with his dignified appearance and the air of a rare nobleman, it is actually very easy for others to like him.
Unfortunately, this is a dead city.
Even without the reminder from Silly Roe Deer, Rin would not be able to trust a Piao gullibly.
He just took three girls and walked into a noble house very elegantly.
His posture was elegant, but in his bones there was a sense of arrogance facing the little nobles in the countryside.
After introducing each other's names, the group went to the reception room on the first floor of the main building and sat down.
The baron's name is Dumont. According to the setting of the script, he is a third-class honorary baron who has no actual rights or jurisdiction and only inherits the title and some fields.
Dimon himself is a very good alchemist, and also has some medical skills.
In addition, he is kind-hearted and generous, and is quite famous in the local area.
"I also have a daughter, but she has been frail and sick since she was a child. She is usually kept in the room with her."
Such a familiar routine reminded Rin of the imprisoned sister she met on the first floor, which was somewhat similar to here.
However, the idea just popped into his head.
I heard a sound coming from the direction of the stairs.
A maid was pushing a girl in a wheelchair slowly down the barrier-free passage on the side of the stairs.
The girl was about the same size as them, with slightly withered orange hair, an unnatural sickly white face, and some bluish-purple lips. It looked like she had been sick for a long time and was weak.
As soon as the girl saw the guest, she seemed quite nervous, with a look of fear in her eyes, showing that she was very shy of strangers.
Dimeng quickly stepped forward and touched his daughter's head with a distressed look on his face.
" Rapunzel, what are you doing down here? It's windy outside today, not suitable for a walk."
"We have guests at home, so... we can't lose our etiquette."
The girl named Rapunzel shrank her neck subconsciously, with a hint of panic on her face.
Dimeng still looked doting on him and introduced him to several people.
"This is my daughter Rapunzel. She has been sick all year round, and her mother passed away relatively early. She is a bit shy, but she is a very well-behaved child."
"These four are temporary travelers who came to the village."
After listening to her father's introduction, Rapunzel folded her hands nervously.
"Hello...you guys."
That timid look looked very much like Christina's.
The silly roe deer gave her a friendly smile, and the sweet smile instantly made Rapunzel lower her head in embarrassment, and the knuckles of her hands turned white.
"Since we are of the same age, father, can I chat with them? I want to know what big cities are like."
Dimon's smile remained unchanged and he touched Rapunzel's head again.
"Wait later, it's time to take medicine soon, please go back first."
Rapunzel did not dare to disobey her father's words, so she nodded.
But before leaving, she looked back at Elise twice.
"Hey...this child has a congenital disease. She has to take medicine several times a day, but it makes me worried...Although I know some medical skills and alchemy, I can't do anything about her illness."
Dimon sat back on the sofa with a look of remorse and sadness on his face, and after a moment he showed an apologetic smile.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't tell guests about trivial matters at home. It's rude."
"It's okay, it's okay, Miss Rapunzel seems like a nice girl."
It was Elise who spoke. She was not as silly as usual, and looked like a dignified princess. No wonder she made Rapunzel look at her more.
"It would be great if I could become friends with you, but unfortunately... you are just tourists. By the way, how many days do you plan to stay here? Or are you just passing by?"
Rin said casually: "The scenery here is nice and the people are simple. We want to stay for a while and we won't bother you for too long. Four or five days will be enough. In addition, we can also pay some fees."
Although I don’t know if the universal underworld coins used in the dead city are used here.
Dimon shook his head repeatedly: "What nonsense! Although I am not a very rich little baron, I can still entertain a few people. Please be sure not to be polite, and don't use those stinking things, which are too out of line."
"Since you said so." Rin nodded matter-of-factly, "When I write a letter home later, I will specifically thank you for your generosity."
"Haha, you're welcome."
Dimon was about to say something else, but a man dressed as a butler suddenly walked in and whispered a few words in his ear.
Dimeng nodded calmly, then stood up and bowed apologetically to several people.
"Sorry, sorry, I have to treat a villager here. Please wait a moment. In addition, I have ordered the kitchen to prepare a dinner. Please enjoy it without waiting for my return."
After saying that, Dimon waved his hand again and hurried away.
I don’t know whether Dimeng did it on purpose or because he was out of his mind to leave a strange guest with him, but he didn’t send anyone to watch or monitor him.
Emilia's eyes regained some focus and looked in the direction of the stairs.
"Going to find her? Maybe, a key person."
"Yes, he is a key figure, but it's better not to go there yet."
Rin grabbed Feimiao's hand and played with the cool but soft palm.
"The relationship between this man and his daughter is always a bit strange."
Unfortunately, the three girls present.
One has been a stranger to his father since childhood, one lost his father when he was born, and the other has no father at all. None of them sensed anything unusual between Rapunzel and Dimon.
"One is doting but very controlling, the other is dependent and a little scared, that's about it."
Only Rin’s family is normal...
Well, despite his family's potentially unusual bloodline, at least getting along with his parents is normal.
In short, he can still see some of it.
Momo, who had never dared to interrupt the adults' chat, yawned and lay on Rin's lap.
"Brother Rin, Momo is a little sleepy."
"Huh? Are you waiting for something to eat?"
"Brother, please stay here for a while, Momo... I'm so sleepy."
"Okay, okay... they haven't prepared a guest room for us either. You sleep here first, and I will send you back to your room later."
Momo nodded obediently, curled up like a kitten on the sofa, and fell asleep soon after.
I don’t know how she, a ghost, could suddenly suffer from sleepiness.
Maybe it's a side effect of visiting other undead territories? Energy will be consumed faster and so on.
Rin also felt a little tired, and was about to close his eyes to rest for a while, but suddenly saw Emilia's movements from the corner of his eye, and couldn't help but be startled.
Emilia unconsciously put her hand on her abdomen.
