Martial arts prodigy Qiao Ling fell for a trap set by her own cousin and ended up transmigrating into the body of a sixteen-year-old girl in a parallel world. But what she didn’t expect was that ...
Chapter 10 Wandering Alone in the Ruins 9
Qiao Ling lay there and rested for half an hour before continuing to dig. This time, she dug for half an hour and finally reached the vicinity of the pond.
At this time, she felt a little damp and cold. Fortunately, she didn't have rheumatism, otherwise she would definitely feel the cold in her bones.
It seems that she was wrong before. Such a place is not suitable for normal life. It is too humid.
Qiao Ling continued to dig forward. As she dug deeper, when she reached the bottom of the pond, she had dug a hole of nearly 20 square meters and a not-so-small pit in the hole. She looked at the bottom of the pit and decided to wait until dark, then go up and dig some flat stone bricks and lay them on the bottom of the pit.
And the most important thing is, this pit does not need to add her spring at all. Water has begun to seep from the top of the cave above the pit, dripping into the pit. Although the speed is very slow, after systematic identification, it was found that this water was originally from the pond and is fresh water, which can be used.
Qiao Ling ignored this place for the time being and left it as it was. She continued digging forward until she reached a place near the back door of the school. She then began to dig diagonally upwards, leaving a passage that was about one meter short before she stopped.
If the original entrance was in danger, she would run here to escape. This side was some distance away from the cafeteria, and there were ruins and big pits everywhere. As long as she was careful, she should be able to escape through here.
When Qiao Ling walked back to the basement, it was already seven o'clock in the evening and it was dark outside. Although she had already had dinner, she had done a lot of work today. When she walked back, she still felt a little lacking. She was not short of food now, so she took out another takeout and started eating again.
She ate while watching the live broadcast. Without the sun, everyone was active outdoors. She opened the map in her sea of consciousness again. There were no red dots within her visible range, but on the other side of the map, she could still see some yellow light.
"System, there are still spider webs outside."
"Yes, host. Today's spider web is worth 100 points per meter. Come on, host!"
After Qiao Ling finished her dinner, although it was not completely dark yet, the visibility in the live broadcast room was not too far away, so she opened the entrance to the basement and went out.
She still closed the entrance and quickly went in the direction of the yellow light. Along the way, Qiao Ling found a lot of flat bricks, but the stones she dug out from below were thrown a little further away. She didn't want people to notice her basement.
Qiao Ling followed to the place where the yellow light appeared, collecting spider webs and looking for flat bricks. If possible, she wanted to pave the underground passage.
Qiao Ling walked through all the areas of the map where the yellow light could be seen. It took him about two hours, and he harvested a total of 200 meters of spider webs, earning 20,000 points.
As for bricks, she also collected quite a few of them. After she returned to her basement and blocked the entrance, she quickly rushed to the bottom of the pond along the underground passage. This time she was really sure that her vision was getting better and better, and she was not affected at all even in the dark.
She walked to the side of the pit, which was already very damp, with water droplets growing bigger and bigger. She took bricks and laid a layer of bricks on the bottom and walls of the pit. She heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the water dripping onto the bricks, hoping that the water would not completely seep in.
There were still a lot of bricks in the space, so she paved the surrounding passages with bricks, and also paved the two small holes that she had dug out with bricks. After she had used up all the bricks, she returned to the basement. The passages were not paved yet, so she would collect some more green bricks next time she had the chance.
This day was so busy that she was sweating all over. Qiao Ling walked around the basement and found a small cement pool inside the entrance steps. The cement pool was not big, probably just enough for her to sit in it, and it was about one meter deep.
Although she didn't know what was placed in here, Qiao Ling felt that it was big enough for her to take a bath.
Qiao Ling took out the spring and activated it directly. The water in the spring instantly flowed into the small pool. She flushed with the spring for a long time before filling the pool with water again.
Qiao Ling could finally take a bath in peace.
However, while taking a shower, she opened the Doudou account on her mobile phone. Now she can only understand the current situation outside through live broadcast.
It is now past nine o'clock and the night has completely fallen. The power grid has begun to make crackling sounds of electricity. According to the host, the electricity comes from the little spiders that have hatched. Compared with the big spiders before, these little spiders seem to have evolved. They are not afraid of electricity at all and some have already climbed onto the top of the power grid.
Naturally, the military would not allow these little spiders to enter the central city, and soon a sharpshooter came out and shot and killed the little spiders that were about to crawl in.
Qiao Ling looked for a few more live broadcast rooms, and one of them was showing green light for two consecutive nights. Qiao Ling couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, she was not captured in the video, otherwise, something serious would have happened.
She was sure that as long as someone could confirm that she was a human, they would definitely run out to find her as soon as they could.
She didn't want to be a sitting duck, so she had to be more careful in the future, especially with the green light. She had to remind it to retract the green light on its body.
Qiao Ling was now too tired to go out and fight the little spiders anymore. She had already picked up all the spider webs within the visible range, so she had no way to deal with the other places that she couldn't see.
But soon, Qiao Ling saw his own figure in a short video. It was a picture taken accidentally by a blogger between seven and nine o'clock. After identification by many people, it was determined that the black shadow should be a human.
However, the photos were very blurry, and only two photos were taken. However, this made Qiao Ling break out in a cold sweat, as she really didn't want to be discovered.
And she lives in the ruins outside, and I guess the people inside can't accept her, right? After all, she should be considered a person who has close contact with aliens and spiders. If she goes to the central city, I guess everyone will avoid her, right? After all, everyone might think that she has a virus in her body, right?
Qiao Ling decided that from now on she would not go out until it was completely dark.
After taking a bath for an hour, Qiao Ling changed into clean clothes, changed the bed sheets, and went to bed.
She soaked all the dirty clothes in the pool. Now that there is water, she needs to wash the clothes.
That night, Qiao Ling slept soundly and did not wake up until dawn the next day. It was already 10:30 in the morning. She did not expect that she could sleep so well.
The basement had started to heat up. After breakfast, Qiao Ling washed the clothes in the pool first, then found a rack to hang the clothes. Only then did she walk towards the corridor.
There was still no red dot on her map. She entered the first small cave in the passage, stopped, and lay down to rest.
