My two-dimensional resident

Standing under the tree, Lin Tian gripped the axe handle tightly with both hands and swung the first axe at the tree trunk!

80! Timber!

80! Softwood!

80! Softwood!

......

Five minutes later, the third crude axe disappeared due to its durability reaching zero, and Lin Tian's flag was fulfilled.

Wiping the sweat from his face with his sleeve, he bent down and put the fifth piece of hardwood into his backpack.

After sacrificing three crude axes, chopping them 120 times, and destroying 40 trees, he finally had enough hardwood to make a crude shovel.

“虽然斧头没了，但收集到88根木材、27根软木材、5根硬木材、24个苹果、6块石头，还有28根树枝。也算是收获颇丰！go！go！go！去制作简陋铲子去了！”

"...I'll play Chopin's Nocturne for you, in memory of my dead love..."

Thinking about the 8000 Bells that would soon be in his hands, Lin Tian hummed a lullaby by Rene Liu as he began his return to camp.

"Lin Tianli! Lin Tianli! You're back! To welcome you as the adorable owner of Rabbit Island, we're holding a banquet tonight. We need some juice for the banquet, but I don't have any apples. Could you help me collect 10 apples?"

When Lin Tian appeared in the square, our head steward, "Lord Ke," emerged from the agate-green tent with Little Bean and Little Grain, wagging their adorable tails as they ran to Lin Tian, ​​asking him to collect 10 apples for tonight's banquet.

"Apples! I've already collected them! Here you go!"

Xiao Ke's words suddenly reminded Lin Tian of the welcome party that all the residents would hold on the first night the players arrived on the island, led by three tanuki.

He thought that since Xiao Ke hadn't told him about this before, there was probably no banquet tonight, but he didn't expect this part to still happen.

Thinking about being able to taste the food made by these three raccoons at the banquet, Lin Tian took out 10 apples from his backpack and handed them to the raccoon Xiao Ke.

"Wow! I didn't expect Lin Tianli to have already collected all the apples. We can't fall behind, Xiaodou! Xiaoli! Let's hurry up and prepare the food for tonight's banquet! Lin Tianli! See you tonight!"

After putting the apple Link handed them into their bag, Little Link, along with Little Bean and Little Grain, the three raccoons happily ran back to their tent.

"Ah! A balloon flew by! A gift that was practically offered to me, and I can't even have it! How awful!"

After the three raccoon dogs left, Lin Tian was about to make a simple shovel when a round black shadow moved away from his feet. He looked up and saw a red balloon carrying a gift box tied with a red ribbon slowly flying over his head.

In Animal Crossing, balloon gifts float ashore on the island every day with the sea breeze. Players need to use a slingshot to pop the balloons in order to get the gift boxes.

In the gift box, players can obtain any item such as Bells, clothes, furniture, materials, etc.

Aside from special holidays, there are four types of balloons that usually fly onto the island: yellow, blue, green, and red.

当年在贴吧里，有一位大佬一次性打了150个气球，44%黄色气球、30%蓝色气球、14%绿色气球、12%红色气球。

Therefore, it can be concluded that yellow and blue balloons are relatively more common, while green and red balloons are rarer. Although the exact drop rate of rare items from green and red balloons was not disclosed.

Based on Lin Tian's two years of gaming experience, the red balloon has the highest probability of dropping item crafting blueprints.

Watching the red balloon gradually fly away in the sky, Lin Tian wished he could conjure up a slingshot out of thin air and shoot it down. No matter what it dropped, it would be worth it.

Unfortunately, he didn't even have the blueprints for making a slingshot, let alone one.

"Sigh! The task ahead is arduous and the road is long! I've only been on the island for less than half a day, and finding even one scorpion is already quite an achievement! It's unrealistic to expect to become a big fish in a small pond!"

After a sigh, Lin Tian turned his attention back to the prop-making table, and then took out the only 5 pieces of hardwood from his backpack to start making a simple shovel!

Don't be too hasty or impatient! Enjoy life!

Lin Tian knew in his heart that he would probably live on this island for the rest of his life, as an island owner. In the world of Animal Crossing, he had no pressure at all. Even if he went back to his tent and lay around for a year, he would live a very comfortable life.

He's not lazy; he'd go crazy if he did nothing all day.

Over these long years, if this island were to be built into a "Shangri-La" that was left unfinished in the game in a previous life, wouldn't that be a meaningful thing?

As a young person living in China, Lin Tian's generation is highly adaptable. This explains why he was able to quickly accept the fact that he had come to a world based on Animal Crossing.

After all, influenced by a vast entertainment culture, almost everyone has fantasized about being reborn into another world, becoming a general, an emperor, the world's strongest, and conquering every piece of land they see...

Marry the most beautiful woman, marry the true love you can entrust your life to...

Lin Tian, ​​on the other hand, didn't have such "grand" dreams; he just wanted to enjoy life!

Chapter 8: What was your favorite horror movie that you were most afraid of watching as a child? (New book, please add to your favorites and recommend!)

Thump! Thump! Thump!

"Done! Scorpion! Here I come! My dear 8000 Bells, get to my bowl!"

After putting the makeshift shovel into his backpack, a happy Lin Tian strode towards his tent with an unyielding gait, ready to avenge the sting!

The thought of those 8000 Bells brought back memories of when Lin Tian first started playing Animal Crossing. In order to earn money quickly, he learned online how to transform resource islands into scorpion islands and tarantula islands.

Resource islands, as the name suggests, are islands where you can farm large amounts of resources. Players need to buy a Nook Miles Travel Pass from a vending machine, take the Dodo bird's plane, and travel to the surrounding resource-rich islands.

To build your home, you must collect a lot of materials and Bells. With only the limited resources on your island, it's difficult to quickly transform it into the dream island you envision.

Gradually, collecting materials from the surrounding resource islands became a daily "task" for players...

In Animal Crossing, there are twenty different types of resource islands, each with a different probability of appearing. The most profitable is the native scorpion island (tarantula island), but this type of island only has a 2% appearance rate.

In order to quickly obtain Bells, some skilled players exploit the game's island transformation mechanic, turning many islands into Scorpion Islands. Among them, the most suitable material island for transformation into a Scorpion Island is the Bamboo Island, which has a 10% appearance rate.

Bamboo Island generally lacks high mountains, with only a small amount of bamboo, a few flowers and grasses, and coconut trees distributed in the four directions of the island, making it very suitable for renovation.

After the bamboo island is fully transformed, players who know how to catch insects can catch more than 30 scorpions at a time, earning about 250,000 Bells.

"These are things we'll consider later; catching this scorpion is the most important thing right now!"

Pulling his thoughts back, Lin Tian hummed a song by Rene Liu as he wandered through the woods.

"I still remember you saying home is the only castle, running and smiling along the rice paddy river, I know the dream you had as a child~~"

"Young master, this song is so beautiful! Could you tell me the title?"

Just as Lin Tian was humming "Fragrance of Rice" with great enthusiasm, a girl's voice entered his mind.

"???"

The sudden sound startled Lin Tian, ​​who stopped abruptly and cautiously surveyed his surroundings.

"Little Ke, didn't they say there were no more residents on the island? I'm the only one here now, so why am I suddenly hearing a girl's voice? This is strange!!!"

call out!

A newly made, simple shovel appeared in his hand, and with a weapon, Lin Tian's anxious heart calmed down a little.

He was told he was the only person on the island, so why is there a girl's voice?

This doesn't happen in the game!!!

Just as Lin Tian took two steps back, the girl's voice rang out again.

"Young master, I'm sorry I startled you. I'm right behind you now."

"Ok?"

Hearing the other person behind him, Lin Tian turned around in a flash to find the owner of the voice!

"This is bizarre! To see a ghost in broad daylight! Damn it!!!"

Lin Tian, ​​who had just turned around, was so frightened by the figure in front of him that he broke out in a cold sweat before he could even prepare himself mentally!

"No! I am the island lord! I am an immortal being on the island, why should I be afraid of a monster???"

As Lin Tian was contemplating which direction to flee in, he suddenly realized that he was the island lord. The health bar in his attribute panel clearly stated that he was the island lord and possessed an immortal body.

This means that the female ghost in front of him cannot harm him at all.

Now that he was sure he wouldn't die, Lin Tian felt more confident. After taking a deep breath and dispelling his natural fear of ghosts, he began to carefully observe the female ghost before him.

The semi-transparent female ghost was dressed in the distinctive shrine maiden attire of a country where people were living comfortably; the white top paired with red kimono-style trousers made it impossible for Lin Tian to mistake her.

She had a pair of dark eyes, a classic oval face, and a head of smooth, jet-black hair in a Hime-style style. With her delicate and pretty features, she was looking at Lin Tian with a smile.

"He's even carrying a bow and arrows on his back... Why does this look so familiar?"

The appearance of the female ghost in front of him gave Lin Tian a feeling that he had seen her somewhere before.

"Hello, the song I just sang is called 'Rice Fragrance.' It was written by my absolute favorite singer. May I ask who you are and why you came to my island?"

Growing up in a country where even animals are not allowed to become spirits, this was the first time Lin Tian had ever seen such a strange creature as a female ghost. Although he was still a little scared, relying on his ultimate abnormal buff of not being able to die, he was very curious about the identity of the female ghost in front of him and how she got here.

"The fragrance of rice paddies...it's a song that makes me miss my hometown..."

After hearing Lin Tian's answer, the female ghost's eyes began to glaze over, and a trace of sorrow appeared on her face.

"Forehead..."

Although the female ghost before him had a slightly off-track understanding of the song "Rice Fragrance," it wasn't entirely wrong. Since it was their first meeting, he couldn't very well correct her interpretation.

"Hello, young master! It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm so sorry if I startled you! My name is Kikyo, and I'm a priestess!"

Even in her soul form, Kikyo realized that her sudden appearance before Lin Tian had been somewhat abrupt. Regaining her composure, she immediately bowed deeply to Lin Tian at a 90-degree angle to apologize, and told him her name.

"Kikyo? Kikyo! You! You! You are Kikyo, the priestess who guards the Shikon Jewel?"

Upon hearing the name Kikyo and seeing her dressed as a shrine maiden, Lin Tian suddenly understood why he felt a strong sense of familiarity with her.

"It is indeed I, young master. I never expected that you would recognize me. It is my honor."

Kikyo raised her head, a faint smile still on her face. She was curious about how this strangely dressed man knew her.

Could it be that he... also covets the Shikon Jewel?

But I have already had my sister Kaede cremate my body along with the Shikon Jewel. The Shikon Jewel no longer exists in the world, and no one can obtain it.

Just as Kikyo was looking at Lin Tian, ​​Lin Tian also fell into memories.

Kikyo, a priestess, is a tragic character in the anime "Inuyasha," a country where life was supposed to be quite comfortable.

Inuyasha tells the story of Kagome Higurashi, a junior high school girl who, by chance, travels through time to the Sengoku period (the era of the Battle of Konoha Village) 500 years ago via a bone-eating well in her family's shrine. There, she meets Inuyasha, a half-demon who is both a human and a demon, and together they embark on an adventure to find the scattered shards of the Shikon Jewel.

Lin Tian really liked this anime, but because it was so old, he had forgotten most of the plot. He only remembered some of the main storylines and the main characters.

There's also a little monster who's incredibly loyal to its master—Jiejian, the one who went viral on Douyin for a while as the "little~monster~".

The Kikyo before us is the past life of the female protagonist, Kagome Higurashi.

Lin Tian could only sigh deeply at her tragic fate.
