Upon hearing Molin's words, Yang Rui was overjoyed. He knew that the system's settings had largely confirmed his previous conjecture. There was hope for him to subdue the neutral village! However, Mo Qing's reaction was a little too extreme. It seemed like there were still some unknown twists and turns in the process.
"Village Chief Mo Qing, are you still concerned about the agreement with Upper Mo Village?" Molin seemed to have anticipated the village chief's reaction.
Seeing that the village chief was only standing there in deep thought and had no intention of responding to him, Molin continued, "Although Upper Mo Village and my village have some relations, when the bandits appeared a few decades ago, the relationship between our two villages was severed!"
At this point, Village Chief Mo Qing's entire body stiffened. Then, he helplessly shook his head and sat down again.
"Old Village Chief, have you forgotten what Upper Mo Village did back then? If not for them, our two villages would have had a chance of repelling the bandits, right? " Seeing the village chief's pained expression, Molin's tone involuntarily changed. "Of course, at that time, I was not there yet. Old Village Chief had personally experienced the situation, so you know it better than I do. Molin has spoken too much!"
The atmosphere became strangely quiet. Yang Rui wanted to mediate, but because he did not know what to say, he did not know what to say. Moreover, the content of the conversation between the two involved Yang Rui himself. It was best not to speak too much!
Village Chief Mo Qing frowned and thought hard. Sometimes, he shook his head and sighed. After a while, his expression slowly calmed down.
"Sigh … What Molin said is reasonable and not without reason..."
Although Mo Qing had already calmed down, his speech was still a bit erratic. "Mo Qing knows that he is already so old. Sooner or later, the entire Mo Village will be handed over to you. Only then can this old man be at ease!"
As Mo Qing spoke, he suddenly turned to Yang Rui and cupped his fists.
"Just as Mo Lin said, it was thanks to Village Chief Blazing Sun and the soldiers of the Great Mountain Village that Mo Village was able to break the blockade of the mountain bandits!
My Xianmo Village should do something. Before the bandits are completely eliminated, Xianmo Village is still facing the threat of being harassed by the bandits. Village Chief Blazing Sun, please eliminate all evil and wipe out the bandits' lair. This will solve my Xianmo Village's dozens of years of trouble!
At that time, if Village Chief Blazing Sun is able to successfully eliminate these mountain bandits and return a peaceful life to my Xiamo Village, I, Xiamo Village, am willing to submit to Great Mountain Village and submit to Village Chief Blazing Sun! "
As soon as Mo Qing finished, a system notification rang in Yang Rui's ears.
"Congratulations, you've triggered the hidden mission — — the attachment of Mo village.
Xiamo Village's attachment: The only path between Xiamo Village and the outside world is occupied by the mountain bandits. The mountain bandits have been causing havoc in Xiamo Village for many years. They prey on the villagers, rob the villagers of their food, and wantonly pillage. Player needs to completely eliminate the mountain bandits and establish a connection between Xiamo Village and the outside world.
Mission Reward: Xiamo Village will submit to Great Mountain Village. Under Great Mountain Village's control and management, Xiamo Village will become Great Mountain Village's subordinate village.
Completion Deadline: Within one month.
Completion Requirement: Eliminate all the mountain bandits in the mountain bandit camp.
Do you accept? "
"Accept!" As soon as the system notification ended, Yang Rui accepted without hesitation. There was no reason to reject such a good deal.
"Village Chief Mo Qing, there's no need to worry. Lie Yang will do his best to exterminate the bandits and strive to eliminate these scourges as soon as possible!" Yang Rui accepted the mission and promised righteously.
"That's great! That's great … "Mo Qing patted Yang Rui's hand." In the process of eliminating the mountain bandits, if Village Chief Blazing Sun needs anything, Xiamo Village will do its best to cooperate with your village …
… "
Yang Rui originally wanted to ask Xiamo Village to cooperate with him and provide some assistance. Since Village Chief Mo Qing took the initiative to mention this, Yang Rui casually raised a few small requests and won over Molin to participate in the elimination of the mountain bandits.
After chatting with Village Chief Mo Qing and Molin for a while, Yang Rui arranged for Chen Ping to lead a group of soldiers to rest in Xiamo Village so that it would be convenient for him to switch with Chen Li later. Yang Rui climbed up the mountain path alone and returned to the checkpoint halfway up the mountain.
After meeting up with Chen Li and the rest, Yang Rui was not in a hurry to investigate the mountain bandits behind the checkpoint. Instead, he brought along the 20 basic archery skills books and 20 bows that he obtained from the checkpoint in the morning and headed back to Great Mountain Village.
By the time Yang Rui arrived at the Great Mountain Village's meeting room, it was already evening. At this time, all the soldiers that went out to hunt monsters were led back into the village by Wang Tao and Li Hong. Among them, a dozen or so soldiers were the first to advance to Tier-1. Currently, they were already over level 20 and were specially kept by Yang Rui to advance to Archer.
However, Yang Rui did not expect to obtain 20 basic archery skills books at once. The number of soldiers that had reached level 20 to advance to Profession Advancement was somewhat insufficient! Fortunately, among the soldiers of Great Mountain Village, there was basically no gap in levels. Behind him, there were 60 soldiers that were about to reach level 20!
Yang Rui handed over the skill books and bows to the dozen or so soldiers that had reached the requirements for Profession Advancement. After they learned the skills, they all went to the beginner barracks to practice and comprehend the skills and attempt to advance to Tier-2 Archer.
After that, Yang Rui went to the Advanced Market to search and browse, but he did not find what he wanted.
According to Yang Rui's deduction, if the beginner checkpoint of the bandits was already so difficult, then the main camp of the bandits should be even more difficult to attack! Furthermore, there would not be any spies! Therefore, Yang Rui wanted to see if he could find a blueprint of a siege weapon. When the time came, it would be easier to attack the bandit camp.
However, Yang Rui was obviously going to be disappointed. Things like siege weapon blueprints were currently under the control of the Han Dynasty. Unless it was an emergency, they would not be leaked out at any other time! In a situation where the NPC system did not provide them, the possibility of relying on players was even lower. Which player who obtained siege weapon blueprints would not treat them like treasures?!
Although Yang Rui was dizzy from looking at the supply and sale items in the market, and he could not find any blueprints, Yang Rui still chose the cheapest items and bought a lot of items such as food and wood. It was not like he did not gain anything.
Even if he sold these items now, he should be able to earn some profits. However, Yang Rui decided that under the situation where he did not lack funds, he could consider storing more raw materials from now on.
Player territories were already starting to rise, and he believed that this speed would increase very soon. When that time came, when many territories forcefully leveled up, whether it was food or wood or other raw materials, there would definitely be a huge increase in price. This was inevitable!
