Chapter 7, Friendly Greetings

Opening the oiled paper umbrella and holding it above her head, Fang Yue walked into the torrential rain

Rubbing his hands together, Fang Yue wondered if the dilapidated temple had developed a few more holes, as the draft was quite strong, making it feel significantly colder.

At the same time, numbers quickly emerged from his body

Fang Yue gritted her teeth and continued walking, feeling increasingly cold, as if her legs were filled with lead

Fortunately, it did not catch fire

The only thing Fang Yue knows now is that killing [the strange] increases attributes, and beyond that, he is completely in the dark.

This can actually cause damage, Fang Yue is somewhat bewildered

Rain level is strange! Rain level is strange! Great danger!

Bring the firewood over and stack it together, placing the oil paper umbrella beside it

Continuing like this is not a solution, please ignite the fire, sir

Sighing, Fang Yue looked towards the outside of the dilapidated temple, where the torrential rain seemed to have eased somewhat

Some firewood

Dangerous thoughts emerged in my mind, but were quickly suppressed

At the entrance of the village, the patrolling individuals also caught sight of Fang Yue and were momentarily taken aback.

It is gone

When he faced some strange situations, he basically stood there passively and struck randomly

But how should one start a fire

This broken game has no guidance at all... No, that's not right, there is some; those two strange characters really taught Fang Yue a harsh lesson

After a moment of calm reflection, Fang Yue first inspected the dilapidated temple

At the village entrance, one can see a group of people holding unlit torches in their left hands and umbrellas in their right hands, dressed in relatively decent attire, gathering and patrolling at the village gate

The answer is to create fire by friction using a wooden stick

Fang Yue placed a piece of firewood on the ground, and picked up another piece of firewood, intending to violently sharpen one end with her hands.

Fang Yue suspected that he would sleep in a dilapidated temple tonight and would freeze to death tomorrow

What on earth is this

The right hand is covered with a thick, greasy black viscous liquid

The willow leaves obscure part of the moonlight, casting a shadowy darkness over the surrounding environment

Fang Yue's expression was grim, and disregarding the black residue still clinging to her feet, she sprinted away with all her might.

Walking down the gravel path is akin to walking into darkness

-1

The dilapidated temple is not large, and the inspection was completed in just a few minutes

-1

In the next moment, his expression changed dramatically, and his body suddenly froze.

The health points immediately returned to 100.

Meanwhile, blood was gushing out from Fang Yue's head.

The oil paper umbrella has a large hole in its canopy, the surface is covered in greasy, black dirt, and it emits a strange foul odor, which is quite disgusting

-1

Wow! I finally see a living person!

Close the door! Close the door! Great danger!

Fang Yue possesses high attributes, but the issue lies in... The strange speed is too fast

-1

The result was that even the method of friction fire using a wooden drill was unsuccessful, and this dilapidated temple was unbearably cold, leaving me no choice but to find another way

By the time they came to their senses, their faces had turned as pale as paper, filled with expressions of despair and terror

What should we do now

-1

Fortunately, [Breath of the Night] is powerful, the health decreases rapidly, and it also increases quickly, fluctuating like a roller coaster

Fang Yue's emotions surged, and she immediately dashed towards the village in the rain

As the person moved, the black slime was indeed flung away one by one

My body is losing temperature

Surrounded by mud walls, transformed into boundaries

Fang Yue tried several more times and finally turned all the firewood into a pile of broken wood of varying lengths

Fang Yue did not give up, and her gaze turned towards the pillar of the dilapidated temple; this object was also made of wood

Next to the Ancient Moon Temple, there are also three small characters - Ancient Moon Village

Fang Yue suddenly saw clearly

They threw down their torches in a flurry and hurriedly turned to flee.

a worn-out oiled paper umbrella

On both sides of the gravel path, there are tall willow trees

Fang Yue looked at the tattered oiled paper umbrella that she had just thrown on the ground, intending to use it as fuel

The heavy rain has now reduced to moderate rain

The torrential rain beat down furiously on Fang Yue.

Fang Yue finally sensed that something was amiss

Forget it, what if the dilapidated temple collapses

In the midst of a frantic run, the wind was so strong that it directly damaged the oiled paper umbrella

However, it seems that the village did not light a fire, which is why it is difficult to see in the darkness

The sound of rushing water

The heavy rain pounded against the oiled paper umbrella, and through the holes, a great deal of rainwater splashed onto Fang Yue, instantly soaking a portion of her.

At this moment, thunder roared once again

Great danger

It seemed that the thunderclap startled her, as this black viscous substance suddenly began to crawl rapidly up Fang Yue's legs, causing her to stomp her feet in fright

I can no longer stay here

The stone path beneath my feet was directly shattered, and the black viscous liquid also fell to the ground, slowly writhing as it reassembled itself.

Sometimes the health decreases significantly, while at other times it decreases only slightly, but it can always recover under the "Breath of the Night"; however, the overall health still declines

It turns out that the increasing coldness is not fundamentally an issue with the dilapidated temple, but rather a problem of one's own.

Place both hands on the 'masterpiece' and rub vigorously.

Leaving the dilapidated temple, Fang Yue naturally stepped into the torrential rain with her bare feet

Great effort produces miraculous results

No, it is not just numb; there is also a bit of stiffness

-1

But where is such a beginner's guide? If it weren't for good luck, he would have revealed it long ago

The village is an ordinary settlement

Later, after releasing the force, in a moment of bewilderment and strangeness, I managed to unleash a flurry of attacks on the small anomaly, ultimately defeating it; otherwise, the outcome could have been truly uncertain.

Outside the village gate, there is a large shed

Especially the oiled paper umbrella, high-quality fuel

The wood on the ground is broken into two halves

The sign prominently displays three large characters—Gu Yue Miao

Fang Yue bent down to pick up a stone, which was laid on the ground. The stone was a pale gray color, very hard, and its type could not be discerned.

After some contemplation, Fang Yue stood up and walked outside

The firewood remains firewood, only the ends exhibit irregular indentations and protrusions, resembling the gnawing of a mouse; this is the masterpiece of Fangyue

Fang Yue lowered her head and saw that below her knees, everything was pitch black, completely covered by an unknown black viscous substance

When I was trudging along the road under the moonlight, I finally arrived at the village.

Having not traveled much distance, I soon came upon a winding stone path that descended downward

In the shed, a large group of people lay in disarray, dressed in tattered clothing, emaciated and pale, huddled around a small flickering flame for warmth, shivering as if they were all refugees

Knock knock knock

-1

Fortunately, the heavy rain is gradually diminishing

Having calmed her emotions, Fang Yue began to contemplate a question

Heavy rain does not fall at a uniform rate, and the area affected by the rain also varies in intensity

Fang Yue began to walk down the gravel path

After trying several more times, I finally managed to produce a somewhat acceptable finished product

The thunder has passed, returning to darkness

Fang Yuexin felt a sense of relief in her heart

He seems to lack this talent

Creak.

This shed appears to be a converted pigpen, somewhat rudimentary, yet still capable of providing shelter from wind and rain

Boom

If there is something that can shield me from the rain for a while, I can use the 'Breathing Recovery Technique' to explore outside

Just as I got up, my legs went numb, and I almost fell down

Fang Yue

As she reached down to touch her foot and then raised her hand to look, Fang Yue was immediately taken aback.

Take two steps back and retreat into the dilapidated temple

village

Putting his mind at ease, Fang Yue walked out through the broken temple's main gate

In such a short time, the health only returned to around 88 points, coupled with the rollercoaster-like fluctuations in health, left Fang Yue feeling somewhat unsteady

It is strange; I see that making fire by drilling wood on television looks very easy, yet I am unable to achieve it despite my great effort

Boom

Next to the stone path, there stands a wooden sign

Fang Yue moved a few times to alleviate this state, but he could clearly feel that the temperature of the dilapidated temple had dropped even lower

Great danger! Please, Lord Han! Please, Lord Han!

The sound of rushing water

Following this stone path down the mountain, there is indeed a village a little further ahead

Originally, he intended to wait for the rain to stop before going outside to explore

Standing up, Fang Yue intended to explore the surroundings

-1

However, compared to the previous speed of blood loss, this is hardly significant, as [Breath of the Night] has completely replenished it.

This left Fang Yue feeling quite frustrated; he could only run for a while, take shelter under a tree to recover from the rain, and then run for a while longer

Fang Yue quickly came to an understanding

Moreover, for some unknown reason, Fang Yue felt a greasy sensation on her feet

Unfortunately, it is pitch black below, and nothing can be seen

It is the kind of stiffness akin to frozen meat that has been refrigerated

Some simply fell into a deep sleep, remaining utterly undisturbed

Thunder roars, illuminating the path

With a power attribute of up to 32 points, it instantly crushed the wooden stick

Fang Yue glanced at it; in the torrential rain, his health suddenly dropped to just over 70 points, then surged wildly to around 97 points in the "Breath of the Night," followed by rapid fluctuations of health loss and recovery

When the spirit of Fangyue is mentioned, look down along the stone path

After defeating [The Newborn Phantom], Fang Yue's attributes increased slightly again
