Xiao Cheng also didn't expect that this mission would be in stages, which gave him a headache.
Then he checked the mission details.
Publicity stage tasks: As a store manager of Ruyi Zhai, how can you stick to one area? Please spread the reputation of Ruyi Zhai to Tagor Desert Snake-People Tribe, to be a good store manager regardless of race Quest Reward: Earth-tier Mountain Bicycle One Quest Failure: The host will be grilled for seventy-seven forty-nine days, taste the pain of chili pepper and cumin, tremble!
Quest Time: Complete this task as quickly as possible.
After reading this mission introduction, Xiao Cheng had the idea of slapping the system to death.
Your mission actually wants me to go to Tagor Desert.
He can't even handle the monsters over there, and you actually asked me to go to the Snake People Tribe, and I'm not going to survive.
"Xiao Dian, can I take Xiao Wu with me?"
Host, you can take Xiao Wu with you. He was relieved to be able to take Xiao Wu with him.
He found a chair and sat down, thought for a while and asked Xiao Dian.
"This mission is not about teleportation, right?"
Congratulations to the host for answering correctly. This answer made the corner of his mouth twitch. The last time he went to the Monster Mountain Range to teleport twice, he almost vomited. Every time, his brain felt dizzy, which was worse than motion sickness.
"Tell me I won't feel any discomfort during this teleportation."
Host, you will still feel uncomfortable. "Okay, forget it, the phased tasks written in this task are not the tasks of this series, right?"
Yes, host. The system's answer made Xiao Cheng facepalm. This is only the first step of the task. It seems that the completion of future tasks will not be too easy.
It's just that the mountain bike on this level will not be the means of transportation for him to travel in Tagor Desert in advance.
But the bicycle probably couldn't be used in the desert, so he asked the system again.
Host, this mountain bike is a magic weapon, and it can be ridden in some dangerous areas without any hindrance. "Awesome, although this task is difficult to complete, the reward is quite cost-effective, so I will give it a try."
So he began to prepare to start a promotional trip to Tagor Desert, but he had to explain some things to Xiao Yi Xian before leaving.
Just then, Xiao Zhan father and son came to the store.
"Uncle Xiao, and Xiao Yan, why are you here free?"
Seeing Xiao Cheng in the store, Xiao Zhan said with a smile.
"Of course I came to your store to buy pastries."
"Store manager, look at me. I just came back from the Monster Mountain Range. Now I'm coming to your store to patronize your business."
This is obviously a joke.
Hearing Xiao Yan's words, Xiao Cheng smiled.
"Then I have to recommend to you the new pastries in my store, come on."
Then Xiao Cheng briefly talked about the launched Sticky Rice Strips, Mung Bean Cakes, Shredded Pork Floss Pastry, and All-in-One Package.
"Wow! The store manager actually has so many new pastries. Give me a pack of Peanut Nougat and a pound of Sticky Rice Strips."
Xiao Yan is quite interested in Peanut Nougat and Sticky Rice Strips.
"Okay, no problem"
When Xiao Cheng asked Xiao Yi Xian to wrap pastries for Xiao Yan, Xiao Zhan couldn't forget the salty Small Fried Dough Twist, so he bought some more Small Fried Dough Twist.
Seeing how much Xiao Zhan loves Small Fried Dough Twist, he couldn't help but shake his head.
Another person who likes salty Small Fried Dough Twist is born. Why doesn't he like sweet? Well, actually I like Sesame.
Should I consider developing a new flavor of Small Fried Dough Twist? I'll wait until this task is completed.
"Store manager, I heard that you asked Xiao Clan's children to help you Lumberjacking and dig the soil. What's the use of it?"
Xiao Zhan's sudden question made it difficult for Xiao Cheng to answer.
He thought for a while before speaking.
"It's not easy for me to explain to Uncle Xiao, there's no harm in it anyway."
He couldn't say that these were the raw materials needed by the system to renovate the store. That wouldn't work, so he might as well just pass it by.
Seeing that Xiao Cheng seemed to be in trouble and couldn't speak out, he didn't continue to ask.
"Shop Owner Xiao, seeing how anxious you were just now, do you want to go out?"
"Yes, I'm going away to do some errands. I may have to be out in the past few days, so you can't see me anymore. But don't worry, I will make some pastries in advance. I won't let you run out of pastries to buy."
"As long as I can buy pastries, I don't care about the rest, haha."
Xiao Zhan said with a smile.
The three of them chatted for a while, and then Xiao Zhan and his son left.
In order to prevent Ruyi Zhai from running out of pastries during his visit to Tagor Desert, Xiao Cheng spent more than two hours in the kitchen making an extra batch of pastries to prevent shortages.
Then I went to Gu He and asked him to look at the pastries in the store. If any pastry was out of stock, just go to the back kitchen and have it made in advance.
Gu He saw that Xiao Cheng had actually made a batch of pastries in advance, so he asked curiously.
"Shop Owner Xiao, do you want to go out to do errands?"
"Yes, it may take several days, or it may be back soon, I can't tell."
"Okay, I get it"
Gu He was about to leave, but was stopped by Xiao Cheng.
"Call Xiao Wu in. I have something to do with him."
After a while, Xiao Wu came to the kitchen.
Seeing Xiao Wu coming, Xiao Cheng nodded, and then told him that he was going to Tagor Desert this time.
In order not to attract most people's attention, he thought it would be better to teleport in the kitchen.
"Xiao Dian, teleport, I tell you, you..."
3...2...1... Teleport "I@#@#@#@"
Before the transmission, you can still faintly hear Xiao Cheng's cordial greetings to the system.
Tagor Desert somewhere.
A magic circle appeared in a desert somewhere, followed by two figures.
These two people are naturally Xiao Cheng and Xiao Wu, but Xiao Cheng's face doesn't seem to be very good at this time.
"Damn it Xiao Dian, let me go, I'm still dizzy after this teleportation. I wasn't this dizzy last time I teleported."
He shook his head, rested for a while, and felt better, then he observed the surrounding situation.
Surrounded by a vast expanse of desert, the slightest wind blows up some sand. The sun in the sky shines on the desert like a big fireball. The temperature is very high and the weather is extremely hot.
But this is not too hot for Xiao Cheng.
Not to mention Xiao Wu, he is just a puppet and will not feel the heat.
"I remember there seems to be a Desert City near here. Haibodong seems to be nearby, Ice Emperor. You can go and see it first. The mission is not in a hurry."
There is also Stone Desert City that you need to visit. Xiao Yan's eldest brother is in Stone Desert City. He created Mo Tie Mercenary Group in the original plot, so you can go and visit him.
"Now let's go visit Ice Emperor first, and then go find Xiao Yan's eldest brother Xiao Ding"
Then Xiao Cheng took Xiao Wu to Desert City according to the map direction marked by the system.
After a long time, Xiao Cheng brought Xiao Wu to a place not far from the gate of Desert City.
Now that we are gradually approaching the city, the number of people is slowly increasing. Basically, these men have dark skin with their arms exposed, and they seem to be quite bold. The occasionally passing women also have slightly dark skin, but they are bronze-colored, giving them a different kind of beauty.
And Xiao Cheng found that this woman's outfit looked a bit exotic.
"Huh~, it's time to reach Desert City. This Tagor Desert is really hot."
Xiao Cheng was still wearing some thick clothes when I came here, but now I have put on a three-piece set of shorts, shorts, and a sun hat.
Don't ask where this came from, buy it from the system.
After passing through these cities, I looked up and saw the yellow cities in the distance. On the top of the city wall were carved two huge red fonts, which looked bloody, with the words Desert City written on them.
When I walked to the city gate, I saw a dozen armored guards at the city gate paying the tax for entering the city.
"Hey! Boy, I didn't see it says pay..."
One of the soldiers in armor was about to step forward to stop Xiao Cheng, but Xiao Wu stepped in front of Xiao Cheng and stared at the soldier with sharp eyes.
An inexplicable pressure made the soldier breathless, and he quickly said with a smile.
"This... Sir, please come in, please come in."
This soldier couldn't bear the pressure of Xiao Wu's powerful momentum, so he let them go.
However, the corners of Xiao Cheng's mouth curved up. He walked into Desert City, looked at the khaki-colored houses around him, and murmured.
"Ice Emperor, I'm coming"
