Chapter 2 Side Quest
In the room, Xiao Tianyang opened his eyes, and his eyes were bright, as if a bright red fire flashed through his pupils, but it disappeared in an instant, and everything was as usual again.
Exhaling a breath of turbid air, Xiao Tianyang relaxed his expression and murmured: "The effect of this little soul power pill is very strong. Such a small pill can help me reach level 9. If I take a few more pills..."
Just when Xiao Tianyang was taking it for granted, the wooden door was pushed open with a creak, and what came into view was a burly man who seemed to be in his 50s, with cloudy eyes and sloppy clothing.
Xiao Tianyang almost immediately recognized the person in front of him, Tang San's father, Tang Hao!
"Just wake up."
Tang Hao first said this, then waved his hand: "Village Chief, I will leave this child to you."
"What a poor child."
When the voice came, Tang Hao took the initiative to step aside, revealing the gray-haired old man behind him who was dressed meticulously.
If Xiao Tianyang guessed correctly, this old man should be the village chief of Holy Soul Village, Old Jack.
"Tang Hao, I'm lucky to have you this time."
At this point, Old Jack didn't seem to want to say any more. He looked at Xiao Tianyang, his eyes softened: "Tianyang, do you recognize grandpa?"
At this time, Xiao Tianyang lowered his head, his eyes flashed, and he thought to himself: "It seems that I am originally from the Holy Soul Village, so it will be convenient now. I don't have to make excuses to stay."
Even with the strength to protect himself, Xiao Tianyang still wanted to contact the father and son Tang Hao and Tang San.
Especially the latter, this is the future Poseidon with the halo of the protagonist, even if he has no evil intentions, he will benefit from the head office, right?
But the old village chief Jack on the other side obviously misunderstood.
Seeing Xiao Tianyang showing such an expression made him feel even more uncomfortable. He couldn't help but stepped forward and rubbed Xiao Tianyang's head, while comforting him: "Son, I know you are sad now, but everything will pass. Let's go first. Go home with grandpa."
Thoughts were racing in Xiao Tianyang's mind.
"It's now time. We must not show any flaws. Just don't speak at all and pretend to be dumbfounded to look normal!"
With an idea in mind, Xiao Tianyang did not raise his head, so as not to be seen, he stood up in a very dull manner, like a soulless doll, and stood next to the old village chief Jack.
Although he is not an actor by profession, it is not even an exaggeration to say that with Tang Hao's strength, he can definitely tell that there is something fishy in it, but in fact there is not.
There is only one reason. Xiao Tianyang was too ordinary before.
Even in the entire Holy Soul Village, his family is a little transparent. If it weren't for the warm-heartedness of the old village chief Jack and his familiarity with every household in the village, it would be normal for him not to know Xiao Tianyang.
But now Tang Hao is still in a period of decadence, and he doesn't even bother to care about his own son, let alone others?
Being able to help save him, Xiao Tianyang doubted whether he had a rag-picking mentality.
That's why Xiao Tianyang's performance allowed him to get through.
As for the village chief, Old Jack, he didn't suspect anything, he just looked helpless.
Holding Xiao Tianyang's hand with a hint of affection, Village Chief Jack looked up and said, "Let's go first."
In response, Tang Hao waved his hand, returned to the iron felt, picked up the hammer on the ground, and started his daily blacksmithing work with a clanging sound.
……
Xiao Tianyang remained silent from beginning to end. Even when he was brought to his home by Village Chief Jack, he still maintained this state while listening to his comfort.
It wasn't until dusk fell in the west that Village Chief Old Jack sighed silently: "Tianyang, why don't you go live at grandpa's house, okay?"
He had said everything he needed to say, but Xiao Tianyang was still in this state, which made him very worried and worried.
At the same time, in the eyes of village chief Old Jack, Xiao Tianyang is still just a five or six-year-old child. No matter what the situation is, letting him live here alone is not an option after all.
Especially at this time when the family is undergoing major changes, it is even more necessary for someone to accompany him to resolve the knot in his heart.
But Xiao Tianyang on the other side didn't think so. He finally got the opportunity to be alone, how could he let it go?
Therefore, he suppressed the emotions in his heart, lowered his voice, and said in a choked tone: "Grandpa Jack, I want to stay at home alone, is that okay?"
This reason is very good, but if you want to use this to make an enthusiastic old man leave, it must not be possible.
So Xiao Tianyang then added: "Don't worry, Grandpa Jack, I won't do anything stupid."
Sure enough, with these words at the bottom, Village Chief Old Jack only felt uncomfortable inside, but he stood up and walked to the door. At the same time, he did not forget to warn: "Tianyang, just cry out if you feel uncomfortable, it may make you feel better."
"Remember, if you have any difficulties, come to grandpa. Grandpa will definitely find a way to help you!"
Xiao Tianyang did not get up to see the guests off, but just nodded dully. The naturalness of the performance made even him secretly surprised.
After waiting for a long time, he finally heard the sound of the door closing. Xiao Tianyang breathed a sigh of relief and muttered to himself: "Thankfully I am smart, otherwise it would be difficult to expose my flaws and let others see something."
But soon Xiao Tianyang put away these thoughts, quickly climbed onto the bed, sat cross-legged, and checked his body.
Of course, the situation was extremely good. Not only was there no injury, but there was also a burning energy nourishing the body in the Dantian.
Opening his eyes, Xiao Tianyang quickly began to make calculations in his mind.
"In this dangerous world, if you want to be able to protect yourself, you have to rely on yourself. Anyway, I have a system. This can be considered a shortcut."
"And the range of lottery values is quite large. Designated tasks should trigger conditions. Defeating a soul master or a soul beast does not mean killing the opponent, so there is still room for development."
"But first we have to get in touch with Tang San. After all, he is the protagonist in the future. Maybe we can get some benefits from him..."
Suddenly, when he thought of this, Xiao Tianyang's mind system sounded a prompt.
"Ding!"
"The host triggers a side mission, [Contact Tang San], content: establish a good friendship with him."
"Task reward: Lottery value x10!"
Sitting up from the bed, Xiao Tianyang looked shocked: "So this is how the mission was triggered!"
Then he asked the system: "How many draws can only be drawn once?"
This question is very critical, and it was something he had forgotten before but remembered now.
"Answer the host, now the lottery mode has been unlocked. There is only one type, 100 lottery points, random lottery is enabled!"
"The 100-point lottery is only drawn once? Or is it random?"
Xiao Tianyang couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. The gap seemed to be a bit different from what he thought!
But then he shook his head again: "It's really a bit greedy. Forget it, just 100 points, it's better than nothing."
Thinking of this, he felt relaxed and fell asleep quickly while lying on the bed.
