The 【General Qingsha's Lair】 copy provided Zhou Yuan with an idea.
The village elder's instructions and Cui Niang's ex-husband's experience prove that the game monsters and copies did not appear with Zhou Yuan's time travel, but were a phenomenon integrated into history.
This immediately made him think of buildings such as cities, forts, temples, and Taoist temples.
In a normal world, cities would most likely be built in places with convenient transportation or dangerous terrain.
Temples and Taoist temples also prefer places with famous rivers, mountains and beautiful scenery.
But this world has game monsters and game copies, so the location of the building has an extra layer of consideration.
"If I were a local, I would have two choices after discovering the copy: one is to keep it secret, the other is to protect it.
However, the confidentiality option is not reliable. If left unchecked, there will always be someone else who accidentally enters.
Although choosing to guard is time-consuming and laborious, as long as one has a certain level of strength, no one will break into private places like the manor's ancestral hall, bunker, and library."
When Zhou Yuan integrated the game copy into the historical level of thinking, he came to a conclusion that was both good and bad.
The good thing is that he no longer needs to search for copies all over the world like a headless fly.
Game copies that are easy to find in a long history are likely to have corresponding owners or guardians.
The bad thing is that the forces that inherit the game copies are likely to regard the copies as their most important wealth.
Not only will they try every possible means to hide, they will also do their utmost to protect.
"The Great Wei Kingdom, and the dynasties before it, these constantly changing dynasties, each generation inheriting the legacy of the previous dynasty, must have accumulated a lot of game copies."
Zhou Yuan discovered that he had another purpose for his military service.
Originally, he only wanted to obtain military camp resources, but now he has another reason to sneak into the court and explore the game copy.
For him, game copies are not only about the source of experience points, but also about quickly strengthening himself, and even having a chance to gain access to the legendary immortality.
After he came into this world, he had a serious lack of security and social status. If he had a choice, he would not allow himself to fall into destitution.
"I really don't know how the people in this world will use game copies, and what kind of strange society they will develop."
Zhou Yuan once asked an old man in the village about the imperial examination, but the old man said that he had never heard of anyone becoming an official by passing the examination after studying.
The Wei Dynasty implemented a "recommendation system", which is similar to the "recommendation of filial and honest officials" during the Han Dynasty on Blue Star.
Here, kings, princes, generals and ministers are indeed powerful. Without some power in the family, there is no chance of becoming an official.
Zhou Yuan originally thought that such a system was implemented because of low productivity and limited channels for knowledge dissemination.
The current phenomenon of game copies tells him that it is very likely that the wealthy families who have copies as their inheritance are constantly killing people.
When the change of dynasties cannot cut off their roots, it is very difficult to make them disappear from the stage of history.
After wringing out his wet clothes, picking up the pottery jar, and wrapping the six pearls in his belt, Zhou Yuan got up and returned home.
Zhao Dahuang, who was on duty, saw a dark shadow pushing open the gate and hurriedly stuck his head out to shout.
"Shitou, want to practice for a while longer?"
"I'm not going to practice anymore. I'm really tired. I'm going to get some sleep tonight."
"That's great! I'll be relieved if you sleep. I'll fill your stomach with a whole chicken egg the next morning."
"Yes, I will. Just eating bread won't satisfy my hunger."
Zhou Yuan knew that Zhao Dahuang was thinking about having a piece of meat, and felt that he was taking advantage of the younger generation, so he planned to give him something valuable in return.
He did not refuse Zhao Dahuang's kindness. After agreeing casually, he fell headfirst onto the bed.
Perhaps because he understood the direction to move forward, he slept very deeply and soundly.
In his dream, he went from a level one dungeon to a level one hundred dungeon. Not only did he become the strongest human, he also broke through the boundary between immortals and mortals.
But just as he was traveling in the starry sky, a blue planet suddenly appeared and burst out with powerful gravity, pulling him down from the sky.
"No, that's too unkind..."
Zhou Yuan somersaulted and successfully fell off the wooden bed.
Sunlight streamed through the window into the damp room. On a wooden block used as a stool lay a large earthenware bowl with a small chicken egg lying inside.
"Uncle Da Huang is so particular. He said whole chicken eggs, so he did."
Zhou Yuan stood up, washed his face, bit off a willow branch to clean his mouth, then sat on a wooden stool and started to pick eggs while checking the attribute panel.
The three attributes of essence, energy and spirit have not changed and are still very harmonious1.
His health value changed again. After eating meat last night, his health bar recovered to 97%.
But after being ravaged by the icy environment in the dungeon several times, his health bar dropped to 92%.
To round it off, last night's chicken was eaten for nothing.
Well, the chicken was eaten in vain, which is equivalent to not eating the chicken at all. The chicken lost from the headman’s house has nothing to do with him.
In addition, the biggest change in the attribute panel is the addition of a new skill.
You have learned the meaning of 'rest and recuperation' and mastered a life skill.
【Recuperation, Lv1 (1/10)】
【Effects: Relieves fatigue, nourishes the spirit, and alleviates negative states. It is the root of stillness and the beginning of movement.】
The clear skill introduction made Zhou Yuan understand the power of the new skill.
"No wonder I woke up feeling refreshed and refreshed, without even a single symptom of a cold. It turns out I've become a skilled sleeper."
Sleeping and eating are the two life skills that Zhou Yuan values most.
These two abilities are his most promising restorative skills at present. Fortunately, both skills are quite effective, giving him some capital for trial and error.
Now muscle soreness and low health bars can no longer stop him from practicing his skills.
"I rely on food supplement skills and recuperation skills to recover my physical condition.
Er Gou has nothing. How can he restore his health after he is at low health?
Zhou Yuan looked at his attribute panel and suddenly thought of Ergou.
That kid must have gone to 【General Qingsha's Lair】 on the night of his marriage, otherwise his health bar wouldn't have suddenly dropped to 89%.
"Now that I think about it, when that guy came to see me, his legs were weak and his face was pale. He probably had a cold, not some seven-night stand."
Zhou Yuan was in Ergou's yard last night and heard him talking, so he was not worried that he would die of illness.
He also wanted to know how an ordinary person's health bar recovers, and whether the upper limit of the health bar would be reduced after excessive loss.
Thinking of this, he could no longer sit still. A warrior who engages in self-experimentation like Ergou must have observers to collect data.
"Shi Tou, are you going for a run?"
"Well, you two hurry up and catch up, otherwise you will be scolded by Uncle Huang."
"Shitou wants to discuss something with you. Since you got up late today, let's not run away.
The idle guys in the village have been making fun of us these days, saying we are cowards. We don’t practice strength or shooting, but only practice how to escape.
"What are you waiting for? Bring us sticks. When we chase them and beat them, they'll realize the benefits of running fast."
"Hey, come on, we've been waiting for you to say that. It's hard for us to take action without you taking the lead."
