Orphaned and working tirelessly for three years, I finally bought my own house only to face the apocalypse. For the second time, I must endure the same catastrophic disaster.
But this time I ...
Under normal circumstances, when it lives for 60 years, its flowers will bloom like stars, which is very beautiful. After it finishes blooming, its mission is over.
Xu Lin and Zhou Pin didn't see any flowering silver sword chrysanthemums, and they weren't sure if they could survive in the environment of the space, so they only dug up a few and planted them in the ground of the space, and put the rest in the room where plants are stored, to be taken out and planted later when there is an opportunity.
The land in the space is currently empty. Zhou Pin just harvested the grains and vegetables a few days ago. In the next few days, while Sun Wei and the others go out to find supplies, the two of them can go to the space to plant some crops.
The two spent the afternoon busy, but the results were considerable, all thanks to Xu Lin's upgraded cheat system.
The two lit a fire in the evening and sat down to eat and chat. They had been so busy collecting supplies in the afternoon that they hadn't had time to review the day's events.
"This upgrade is probably due to the absorption of jadeite ore last time. The space itself hasn't changed, but the resource gathering skill has improved," Xu Lin said.
“The stones Sun Wei took back may have come from this mountain. Diamonds and gemstones are also products of volcanic eruptions. This extinct volcano erupted hundreds of years ago,” Zhou Pin said.
"There are no traces of human intervention on this place. Why didn't anyone come to develop it back then?" Xu Lin wondered.
“On the one hand, this area used to be deep in the mountains and forests, and very few people came here. On the other hand, the environment here was not suitable for human development before, so it has remained in its original state,” Zhou Pin said.
"If the post-apocalyptic environment changes, we'll be able to come up here?" Xu Lin said.
"That's the only explanation," Zhou Pin said casually.
As usual, the two of them went into the space to rest at night. They set up a tent and led the dogs into the space through the tent. After washing up, they went to sleep.
The next day, the dogs continued their patrols and sentry duty. The two arrived near the crater, believing that there were gems on the volcano and that they had to investigate for the sake of space.
Along the way, the two picked up many good things: diamonds, peridot, garnets, rubies, sapphires, zircon, moonstone, plum blossom jade, opal, amethyst, agate, bloodstone, lapis lazuli, Shoushan stone, blue chalcedony, jasper, and so on.
Xu Lin didn't even want to leave. Although these stones were just pretty but impractical and space-consuming objects in the post-apocalyptic world, they were valuable to Xu Lin and her companion.
Xu Lin really likes these "stones" and wants to pick out a few nice ones to make a video about later, or keep as a souvenir.
Therefore, Xu Lin found two burlap sacks and Zhou Pin each put the gems they had picked into them. Once they were full, they put them into their spatial storage to prevent the gems from being swallowed up by the storage space.
Who would have thought that such beautiful stones would be packed in burlap sacks and casually placed in a corner of the room? Wow!
In order to collect more gems, the two had to extend their stay at the dormant volcano, which was originally planned for only two days, and continued their struggle on the mountain.
Another day passed, and this time they changed their location to the other side of the mountain, because they couldn't just fleece one sheep at a time.
The plants on this side were more abundant, and Xu Lin and Zhou Pin were also very busy, collecting volcanic rocks and ash, as well as gems, plants, and the occasional small animals that darted out.
Although volcanoes are not very suitable for plant life, they are home to many animals.
Volcano rabbits and smiley spiders are everywhere. Xu Lin wasn't too interested in them, but she still collected a few and put them in her space. Who knows if she'll need them in the future!
