Vegetable Skeleton's Exotic Land Reclamation

Chapter 2 The Starving Man



It's the busiest time of the year again, the crops are ripe and it's time for harvest.

Ange was working hard, the sharp sickle in his hand was flying, and the crops were cut off at the root, and they fell neatly to the side, as if there was an invisible hand placing them.

This is the experience accumulated from thousands of years of non-stop work. The sickle is like a living thing in his hands. He wants to cut wherever he wants, and how deep he wants to cut, so as to create better conditions for the next arrangement. .

Just like this non-stop work, the night passed quietly like this, the sky was bright, and the singing of birds around gradually increased, and various birds of different species landed on the ridge of the field, pecking at the scattered crops.

If they were just pecking at the fallen crops, Ange would not care about them, but the scattered bits and pieces are nothing compared to the richness and fatness of the plants. Many new birds who have not been taught have crossed the line and landed on the ground. on unharvested crops.

Ange tilted his head, turned around and walked to the edge of the field, took a straw hat from the scarecrow's head, and put it on his own head.

When the magic power was stimulated, Ange, who was wearing a straw hat, turned into an eagle, flapped his wings and flew to the field. The birds that landed on the crops there were so frightened that they fled in all directions, and dared not come back for a long time.

Scarecrow hat, a magic prop that can release illusions. It only needs a little magic power to stimulate, and it can maintain an illusion for a long time. Unless you have stronger mental power than Ange, it is difficult to see through. It is used to deceive Birdies are enough.

In the past, those scarecrows wearing hats could release illusions by themselves to scare the birds and beasts who were stealing food, but I don't know when, these scarecrows gradually became silent.

After several years of large-scale production cuts, there were more and more birds and animals, and even the seeds were dug up and eaten as soon as they were planted. Only then did Ange realize the role of the scarecrow, and then slowly practiced the illusion of stimulating the hat.

Up to now, he has learned to transform into several shapes, such as the eagle that birds and beasts are most afraid of.

I saw a giant eagle flapping its wings and flying around in the field. The crops were being harvested continuously, and those greedy birds dared not land for a long time.

The sun rose, and the sun shone on An Ge's body, bringing a slight burning sensation.

Undead creatures hate sunlight the most, and Ange is no exception. A long time ago, when he stayed in the sun for a few more minutes, he felt that his soul was going to explode. At that time, he would hide in the sunlight as quickly as possible. out of reach.

But more than a thousand years have passed, although An Ge still doesn't like the sun, but he no longer feels the uncomfortable feeling of the past, especially when there are still a little crops left, he thinks he can bear it for a while.

Under the sunshine, the last ridge of crops was also harvested and packed, and Ange pushed the cart to transport them to the warehouse where the crops were stored.

Pushing and pushing, An Ge suddenly felt something was wrong, looked up and looked outside the farm, and saw an arched gate emitting a faint white light outside the fence.

Ange has forgotten how many years there have been no such abnormal situations. These years, there is no sound, no light, only dead silence.

Why do arches glow? Are those immortal souls back?

Ange immediately turned a corner, and the food was gone. He pushed the trolley towards the glowing arch. However, when he came to the arch, he did not find any immortal souls. Except for the arch emitting white light, The surrounding situation has not changed from usual.

Anger circled the arch suspiciously, turned to the middle of the arch, and disappeared directly from the middle of the arch.

I only felt a blur in front of my eyes, and the surrounding scenery changed drastically. It was no longer the desolation and silence around the farm, but a gray wasteland. Two stone pillars stood abruptly in the field, emitting a faint white light.

An Ge took a step forward, but the white light of the stone pillars on both sides was pulled, connecting him and the stone pillars like a membrane.

Taking another step forward, Ange felt restrained, and the light film bound him and the pillar together.

what? An Ge struggled hard, breaking the light film easily, and the soles of his feet also stepped on the ground.

The light film broken by him fluttered and shrunk weakly, and finally shrank to his wrist, turning into a leather wristband with runes on it.

Magic trinket? Angus tilted his head.

At this moment, a weak voice suddenly came from behind him: "Eagle...Eagleman? I...I clearly...prayed to the immortal soul, but why did the Eagleman come?"

Ange turned his head and saw that it was a skinny and deformed human lying on the ground. The protruding wrist was shriveled to the bone, as if a layer of skin wrapped the bone. Pointing at Ange with one hand, he reluctantly finished the last word, his head and arms collapsed weakly, and he passed out.

Hawkman? me? An Ge tilted his head, a little confused, he was obviously a skeleton, why did such a human being point at him and say "Eagle Man"? What is an eagle man?

Thinking of this, An Ge suddenly touched his head and took off the scarecrow straw hat.

So it turned out that his straw hat hadn't been taken off, and he was still in the shape of an eagle at this moment, so he was misunderstood by this human being.

Hanging the hat around his neck, Ange walked up to the human and poked him with his fingers. There was no movement, and he really passed out.

Observe carefully, the breath of human life is weakening, and there is a danger of extinguishing at any time, that is to say, this human is dying.

This made An Ge a little bit at a loss and at a loss. He is just a little skeleton who grows vegetables. He has never faced such a thing. What should he do now?

After thinking for a while, Ange suddenly remembered his cart. The freshly harvested crops were piled up on the cart and ready to be transported to the warehouse, but he was attracted by the white light on the way, and he pushed the cart over. Now he has a cart of grain in his hand. .

Humans should need food, right? He is so thin, he must be hungry, right? Thinking of this, An Ge knew what he should do, and there was not much he could do anyway.

He turned the human over, grabbed a handful of food and stuffed it into his mouth, then crouched there hugging his knees and observing.

why do not you eat? An Ge waited for a while, and found that the other party was still. An Ge had a clear realization: one cannot eat after fainting.

That being the case, Ange decided to help him again, grabbed the food and stuffed it into the human mouth. After stuffing a few handfuls, the human was awakened by him without a surprise.

The weak human struggled to spit out the grains that almost choked him to death, and said with difficulty that he had to shell and cook them before eating, and at the same time expressed that he was dying of thirst and needed water.

Faced with such a request, An Ge became embarrassed. Where could he find water?

With no water to eat and no grain to eat, the weak humans stared at a cart of food, and finally starved to death.
