Chapter 1000 Villagers’ Doubts

"No matter what you see, you must endure it..."

Chen Ming silently repeated the Queen's instructions just now.

Then he pulled up his hood to block the strong wind and snow particles as much as possible, then gently pinched the horse's belly, causing the cow and horse to slightly increase their speed and walk towards the figure standing in front of them.

"Excuse me……"

Chen Ming raised his voice so that his voice could penetrate the thick wind and snow.

The cold wind poured into his mouth, causing his throat to contract suddenly. He paused for a moment before recovering and continued. "Please continue walking forward. Can you find a place to rest?"

"A foreigner, right?"

"Welcome, welcome!"

"Further ahead is Yanan Village. We welcome outsiders. Come on, come with me."

The other party responded heartily, and his voice did not lose any enthusiasm even though it penetrated the thick wind and snow barrier.

Even Chen Ming, who had already anticipated the situation here, couldn't help but be infected by the enthusiasm and felt a little relaxed.

"Then I'll trouble you to lead the way."

While he was talking, Chen Ming's oxen and horses were already carrying him to the enthusiastic uncle.

He took the Queen's advice to heart.

After being mentally prepared, he looked at the uncle's appearance.

Thick eyebrows, big eyes and beard.

The nose is tall and big, and it was a little red from the cold in the wind and snow.

The skin has criss-crossed grooves, showing his not so young age.

It looks ordinary no matter how you look at it.

If you have to find a problem, it's just that the skin is too pale and rather sickly... But this is obviously because there is snow all year round here and the sun is rarely seen.

Very normal.

Even too normal!

There is not much difference compared to many NPCs in the game.

This actually made Chen Ming, who had made enough preparations in his heart, feel as if he had been punched in Cotton's body. He was stunned for a while before he turned over and dismounted.

The bearded uncle raised his head and looked at the queen puppet on the horse, "Who is she?"

"The puppets I made." Chen Ming answered according to the previously discussed words. "I am a puppet master who travels around the mainland. I have accumulated experience in making puppets by seeing the customs and customs of various places."

"Oh?" The bearded uncle's voice rose a bit, obviously his interest was aroused. He moved closer and looked at the Queen's puppet up and down, "It's so lifelike. Is this really a puppet? Wait, you Is the puppet what I understand it to be, that is..."

"Yes, it's the kind of thing that I control, like a puppet." As he spoke, Chen Ming raised his palm in front of the bearded uncle, with his palm facing down, and his fingers turned up and down in the air as if playing a piano. Flying up.

The queen on horseback also cooperated and made corresponding actions.

She straightened up stiffly and raised her head, raising her arms at the same time.

"Oh! Such amazing puppetry skills!"

Following the exclamation of the bearded uncle, Chen Ming, who was actually doing the fake show, suddenly felt that there seemed to be a vague connection between himself and the Queen's puppet.

"What does this feel like...?!"

Chen Ming was shocked.

That's a very magical feeling.

It was as if he had truly become a puppet master capable of manipulating the Queen.

His fingers waving randomly in the air seemed to be bound by that mysterious power, building a bridge of communication between him and the Queen's puppet.

Unfortunately, this power is very weak.

Chen Ming only felt it briefly, and then it disappeared in a flash.

He looked thoughtfully at the beard in front of him, who was constantly looking at the Queen's puppet with a curious look.

Could it be...

Is this the power that can be obtained by gaining trust from the villagers?

He believed that he was the puppet master and that the Queen was his puppet.

Then Chen Ming really has the ability of a puppet master and can truly control the queen's puppet!

"This kind of power is really terrifying..."

After Chen Ming sighed silently, he smiled and stopped the "demonstration", "It would be great if we could find a place to stay in this cold and freezing place."

In this way, Chen Ming led the cow and horse, talking to each other, and moved forward.

After walking a few steps, a fork in the road suddenly appeared ahead.

A huge wooden sign was inserted there.

"Don't worry, let me see where we should go." The bearded man said as he shrugged and lifted the body of the wild spores he was carrying.

Chen Ming was not idle either and followed him.

After all, his knowledge of Echo Snow was limited to word-of-mouth transmissions from players in previous lives. Being able to obtain more information through road signs and the like was quite crucial to him.

But when Chen Ming approached the road sign, he froze on the spot.

I saw that although there were many branches on the road signs, pointing in all directions, all the plaques had exactly the same words...

Yanan Village!

Each one points to Yanan Village!

In all directions, there are Yanan!

He was about to blurt out subconsciously and ask the bearded uncle next to him why the road signs were all Yanan.

But at the moment when the words were about to blurt out, he remembered the queen's advice.

No matter what I see...

Don't make any noise!

He suppressed the doubts in his stomach and looked slightly sideways to observe the condition of Beard. Unexpectedly, when he looked, he found that Beard was not looking at the road sign at all. He actually turned his head and stared at it. Own!

Chen Ming suddenly met his eyes.

He stared at Chen Ming, his eyes widened as if they were about to burst out of his sockets.

"Have you found the way?"

Every time he uttered a word, his head tilted slightly to one side, and he moved closer to Chen Ming.

His tone was calm.

It was just that his sentences were weird.

After finishing a whole sentence, his face was almost close to Chen Ming.

Chen Ming did not change his expression, but secretly he had already quietly grasped the two daggers at his waist, "The wind and snow are too strong, it's a little unclear... But you, uncle, you are a local, you should be able to see it at once, right?"

"Oh, yes, the wind and snow are too strong, too strong..." He stopped using strange ways to shorten his sentences, and the whole person slowly shrank back.

It was as if he recognized Chen Ming's explanation.

Chen Ming secretly breathed a sigh of relief and raised his head at the same time.

According to the rules here.

If the other party recognized the reason that the wind and snow were too strong, then the wind and snow would also become stronger next time.

But the strange thing is...

The expected changes did not occur.

"That's not right..."

"The snow isn't heavy..."

"How can I not see the road sign clearly?"

The bearded man suddenly muttered.

"No, no, no, no, no..."

He spoke rapidly.

The neurotic muttering kept echoing in Chen Ming's ears.

And...

Getting closer!

He came closer again!

When Chen Ming turned his head to look over again, he could see clearly the bloodshot eyes so close to him!

"You're not right..."

"The snow isn't heavy at all..."

"It's your eyes..."

"There's a problem, right..."

As he spoke word by word, he didn't give Chen Ming any chance to explain or refute, and he felt a pain in his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, he could clearly feel his eyeballs slowly melting in his eye sockets, and his vision became incomplete as it melted. At the same time, severe pain broke out at every nerve ending connecting his eyeballs to his brain.

Tens of millions, even billions of pains gathered together at this moment.

They broke out recklessly in Chen Ming's mind!
