The stars were sparse, and the moon was bright.
Scenes rare in Jiang Xuan's previous life were easily seen in both Teyvat and Minecraft.
However, somewhat similarly,
both star-filled skies were fake.
In the Minecraft world, without special mods, the world was simply an infinitely extending plane.
Even when flying into the sky in Creative mode, one couldn't reach the position of the stars.
And Teyvat was even more direct, simply not allowing you to approach the star-filled sky.
However, this was clearly not something that warranted everyone's concern.
At this moment, everyone sat around a campfire.
Several blocky matchbox houses stood in the surroundings.
Further away were fences.
The entire area was dotted with torches, ensuring there was no room for monsters to spawn.
And monsters were indeed crowding outside the fences.
No one bothered to deal with them, waiting for these things to disappear with the morning sun.
Jiang Xuan leaned against a wool block, with Ganyu and Nahida nestled obediently in his arms, Nahida's little head bobbing as she dozed.
This made Ganyu feel quite amused.
This Lesser Lord Kusanali was completely an immature little loli.
Even her daily routine was somewhat like a child's.
It was only a little after eight o'clock, and she was already sleepy.
Even though she had been riding horses with Jiang Xuan all day, she shouldn't have been tired.
Jiang Xuan gently patted Nahida, coaxing her to sleep like a child.
"Let's talk about today's Lucky Block haul,"
Jiang Xuan said in a low voice.
Keqing, who was at the side, took out a notebook and said in a businesslike tone:
"Today, we opened a total of forty-two Lucky Blocks."
"Excluding rotten flesh and other trash, monsters, and various traps,"
"The total number of effective Lucky Blocks was thirty, of which Ganyu opened twenty."
"The effective materials obtained were several wool blocks and some food."
"Five sets of Redstone components, and after consolidating the mineral resources, a total of twenty-three diamond blocks, twenty-two emerald blocks, forty-seven iron blocks, lapis lazuli blocks…"
Before she could finish, Jiang Xuan shook his head and said softly:
"There's no need to mention these mineral resources and such. Just talk about the more important materials."
Keqing nodded, flipping the notebook to the next page, and the others listened attentively.
"Important materials: three pairs of Elytra, five Totems of Undying, one stack of Ender Pearls and Eyes of Ender…"
"Twenty-three Golden Apples, seven Enchanted Golden Apples."
"Also...should enchanted tools be mentioned?"
Keqing looked up at Jiang Xuan, who pondered for a moment before saying softly:
"My plan is to throw away all these enchanted tools, especially the ones that are worse, below the iron tier…"
Hearing this, Ningguang immediately shook her head and said:
"There's no need for that yet, right? These are all enchanted tools, after all. Even if we don't like them, we can distribute them to the Millelith and the miners."
"It would be a waste to throw them away indeed,"
The others nodded in agreement.
But Jiang Xuan looked at Ningguang with some helplessness.
"But we're almost out of space to store them…"
"It's okay,"
Keqing said softly:
"Our backpacks should still be able to support another day of Lucky Block opening if we squeeze a bit."
"If they get full, we can go back to Teyvat tomorrow to drop off some things."
"In any case, we still have many people behind us. We're not so luxurious as to be able to waste so many good things."
As she spoke, Keqing looked at Jiang Xuan amusedly.
"You're quite generous, but enchanted tools can be sold for sky-high prices if they're placed in Liyue!"
Jiang Xuan shrugged.
"Whatever you want. Since you want to keep them, then keep them. It's good to reward those in the Millelith and the miners who have made contributions."
"In addition, we should now have enough Totems of Undying for one each. Everyone, take one first, with survival as the priority."
Hearing this, the others didn't refuse.
In the past, they would have thought that it was better for Jiang Xuan to keep these precious Totems of Undying.
But…
After watching Ganyu open a Totem of Undying from time to time throughout the day, they were numb to it.
Upon closer inspection, it seemed that with the Lucky Blocks and Ganyu around, these Totems of Undying weren't particularly precious or unrenewable treasures.
They might even open four or five more tomorrow.
The statistics of the Lucky Block harvest made everyone very pleasantly surprised.
This time, the resources they got were no less than the miners getting after going down into several mines.
Ningguang thought that it was better to adjust their strategy and find a way for the Millelith to go out and explore more and open Lucky Blocks.
"Also, there's one more very important treasure."
Keqing flipped to the last page.
"Ganyu opened a total of nine Lucky Eggs. Should we open them all together now or wait until we go back?"
Jiang Xuan pondered for a moment, then shook his head.
"Let's wait until we get back. If we open more Lucky Eggs, it'll look better if we open them all together when we get back!"
Everyone smiled wryly, shaking their heads and skipping over the topic.
Hu Tao retracted her gaze from the zombies and skeletons outside and said softly:
"Where should we go tomorrow? Should we continue exploring the plains or go directly to the snow mountain?"
This matter was more important than when to open the Lucky Eggs.
Jiang Xuan didn't make the decision for everyone and looked at the others.
Hu Tao muttered:
"I want to go to the snow mountain. Although the scenery in the plains is nice, it's boring if it's always just plains."
"I haven't seen much snow. I've always heard that Mondstadt has Dragonspine, but I've never been there. What about you?"
As she spoke, she gave Zhongli a "you understand, right" look.
Zhongli laughed inwardly but still gave his Director a satisfactory answer.
"I don't mind. Going to the snow mountain would also be a good choice."
Now that Zhongli had spoken, Xiao naturally followed suit and stated that he would go to the snow mountain.
Now that things had reached this point, even if Ningguang and the others wanted to continue surveying the plains, there was no need to split up.
They all nodded and agreed to Hu Tao's small wish.
Anyway, the purpose of this trip was also to find mines and such, and the situation might be even better on the snow mountain.
"Alright,"
Jiang Xuan chuckled lightly.
"Since everyone wants to go to the snow mountain, we'll set off directly towards the snow mountain tomorrow morning."
"If we're lucky, we might even find a snow mountain village. If the village is big enough, there might even be an abandoned mineshaft below it."
"There's a lot of good stuff inside."
The resources on the snow mountain were still very good.
Moreover, they could readily obtain materials to make a Snow Golem.
Snowballs were also very good things, as for their use…
Snowball fights!
In any case, the main purpose of this trip was to have fun.
Everything was focused on having fun.
It had been a long time since Jiang Xuan had had a snowball fight.
After chatting for a while longer, around ten o'clock in the evening, everyone felt sleepy.
Although riding a horse wasn't tiring, they had a lot of fun today, and their mood was still somewhat fatigued.
They all got up to take their leave and returned to their rooms.
Jiang Xuan also gently picked up Nahida and took her and Ganyu back to his big house.
Even though Nahida was the Dendro Archon, she still had combat power.
But Jiang Xuan only treated her as an immature little loli.
Naturally, he had to take care of her at all times.
His temporary residential area was built quite large.
Two bedrooms and one living room.
Nahida rested in the other room.
After putting Nahida on the bed and covering her with a quilt, Jiang Xuan's face softened as he looked at Nahida, who was as quiet as a sleeping kitten.
He gently scratched Nahida's nose, and when he saw the latter stretch out her small hand to cover her face, he then amusingly took Ganyu back to his room.
Well…
Everyone knew what kind of relationship he and Ganyu had, so there was no need to hide it.
Anyway, Ganyu and Jiang Xuan were currently in the honeymoon phase and would never separate.
With the two beds pushed together, Jiang Xuan threw himself onto the bed as soon as he entered the room.
He cheerfully patted the spot beside him, looking at Ganyu with anticipation.
Ganyu naturally understood what Jiang Xuan was thinking. Although she was also very tempted, Nahida was staying next door.
Moreover, Ningguang and the others' houses weren't far away either.
Ganyu wasn't sure she could hold back.
Lying obediently on one side, Ganyu quickly protected herself as Jiang Xuan was about to come over, saying softly:
"It won't do, Jiang Xuan, Nahida and the others are here…"
Jiang Xuan's expression stiffened, and he helplessly gave up the idea in his heart.
"If only I had let everyone go back to rest tonight…"
Sighing, Jiang Xuan hugged Ganyu with a regretful look.
The latter was somewhat amused but suddenly seemed to think of something, and her face turned slightly red.
After seemingly overcoming a great psychological barrier, she said:
"Then…what about using that kind of method that doesn't make any noise?"
Jiang Xuan was stunned for a moment, but soon understood Ganyu's intentions as she quietly crawled down.
He had to say, the fact that the noble Qilin was willing to do this for him really moved Jiang Xuan.
Ruffling Ganyu's hair, Jiang Xuan said softly:
"Ganyu, you're so good…"
Ganyu narrowed her eyes and smiled, but couldn't make a sound.
However, her actions became even gentler.
Clumsily and firmly using what she thought would make Jiang Xuan happy, she expressed her feelings.
Compared to working hard all day and going back to soak his feet at night.
Jiang Xuan still felt that having Ganyu serve him at night was the most beautiful daily routine.
…
The next morning.
Xiao got up early to clear out the monsters here.
Although the zombies and skeletons had long started to burn on their own, there were still slimes and Creepers, and even spiders were plentiful.
These things had to be killed, not just because they were obstacles, but also because their materials were very important.
On the spider's side, Jiang Xuan needed their materials to make fermented spider eyes to charge his weapons.
Creepers also dropped gunpowder, and slimes were related to Redstone technology.
Don't look at these monsters as disgusting, in reality, they were all carriers of top-tier materials.
Especially those skeletons.
Ever since everyone had accepted bonemeal, bones had become the most scarce thing.
Keqing had also said that bonemeal was in short supply after the land exchange in Guili Plains.
That land was of great significance to Zhongli and the Adepti, so they naturally had to pay more attention to it.
Fortunately, Xiao now had a set of top-tier diamond enchanted armor plus a trident, so clearing out the monsters was as easy as playing a game.
In a few minutes, he swept everything clean.
After doing all this, everyone went out.
After agreeing to have a meal, they didn't tear down this temporary settlement.
It could be considered leaving behind a unique building, maybe for a vacation or something in the future.
They set off again, riding their horses.
Chatting and laughing, they headed straight for the snow mountain.
With a destination in mind, this time it didn't take long before they saw the edge of the plains.
It wasn't until they saw the location of the snow mountain that they were shocked by the unique scenery of the Minecraft world.
