How to Listen to Farmers Share

How to Listen to Farmers
1
Listen to the First Farmer
Just in front, approach Mr. Ouyang, the Freedom Lover, and his burdenbeast. He mentions that flying is his secret in raising a burdenbeast, so he installed magnetic levitators.
2
Listen to the Second Farmer
Talk to Ms. Ann the Little-Stitious to the right. She focuses on both the scientific approach and the metaphysics in raising burdenbeasts.
3
Listen to the Third Farmer
Approach the burdenbeast to the left. This is actually Shasha, Lifeng's burdenbeast. A kid randomly asks us for help after a burdenbeast went missing.

Find the Missing Old Burdenbeast

First Location of the Farm
The first farm to search is the one nearest you. Head to the area with the burdenbeast.
