When Yan Lan woke up, she found herself caught in a road survival game.
1. This is a disaster road. 2. Everyone is randomly assigned an initial vehicle, and supplies come from treasure chests...
37 Ruined City-Day 7
◎Recommend your bed◎
Day 7 of Ruined City, 6am.
[Successful sign-in, get a wet-drying machine blueprint*1. ]
It was like searching for a needle in a haystack, but it turned out to be something I had found without any effort. I actually got a precious blueprint by signing in!
The humidity is 90% today. It's so damp indoors that even desiccant isn't working. It's even worse outside, like a steamy, enclosed shower room right after a shower. Just sitting there doing nothing makes me feel uncomfortable.
Before going to bed last night, she placed no less than 10 packets of desiccant around the room. When she woke up early this morning, each packet was filled with water, and some boxes even started to mold on the top.
The city ruins outside the highway have long since changed beyond their original appearance after being washed away by moisture.
The ground is covered with green moss, which looks slippery. The outer walls of the buildings are covered with various fungi, red, yellow, green, purple, and in various shapes.
According to the laws of nature, the brighter the color, the more toxic it is.
Ever since yesterday's poisonous mushroom incident, players have been extremely wary of these spore-forming plants. They have been wiping the moisture off the walls of their RVs again and again, fearing that they would be invaded by the omnipresent fungi.
The environment is being upgraded, and various protective tools also need to be upgraded accordingly. Yesterday I was worried that dehumidifying tea and desiccant would not be effective, but today I got a drawing of a wet and dry all-in-one machine.
Yan Lan looked through the drawings. The materials needed were 3 pieces of metal, 1 piece of rubber, 1 piece of glass, and 1 piece of electronic component. These materials were readily available, so manufacturing was not difficult.
The manufacturing station has been upgraded, and production time has been greatly reduced. However, this type of mechanical drawing is complex and time-consuming than charcoal, toilet paper, etc.
It takes one minute to make a wet and dry machine, and she made more than ten on the spot.
The wet and dry machine requires electricity to run, and the RV's electricity comes from gasoline. She is not afraid of having a large gasoline reserve, but other players probably won't be so generous, so they only have a very small inventory.
The wet and dry machine is small in size, just like a mini coffee machine.
She took one of them and placed it in a corner of the room. After turning on the power, the indicator light came on. She selected the dehumidification mode and the machine started working.
Its working volume is extremely low and will not disturb people in the room at all. After a while, the machine will make a "beep beep" prompt sound.
The water tank was full. It sucked up a bucket of water in just 2 minutes, and she instantly felt that the room was much drier.
It has been a long time since she last lived in normal air, and all the pores in her body began to feel comfortable. This is a good thing, and it can still be used even after passing this game map.
Then she sent four wet and dry machines to the small group called "Let's Get Rich Together". Several people in the group transferred a lot of supplies to her. She didn't act pretentiously and accepted them all with a smile.
"By the way, I recently got a can of brown sugar. I heard that you girls get stomachaches when you have your period, so keep it for yourself."
Just after collecting the supplies, Ji Zhou sent her another private message and at the same time transferred her a can of brown sugar.
It is canned, with dozens of pieces in one can. Each piece is pure in color, and you can smell a strong sugarcane aroma when you open it.
More than ten years of dysmenorrhea has enabled her to accurately identify brown sugar. Just by smelling it, she knows that this jar of brown sugar is of high quality.
The cramps she had during her last period were still fresh in her mind, and she had been following news about brown sugar ever since.
But this is the game world. Brown sugar, which is ordinary to normal people, is extremely rare here. There has been no news for a long time, so this gift really touched her heart.
Yan Lan happily accepted it: "Thank you~"
"It's okay, as long as you like it."
Just a few words, but she looked at it and curled up the corners of her mouth inexplicably.
The news of the wet and dry machine spread quickly throughout the H-38 area. Players were no longer surprised that she was the seller. They would only find it strange if it wasn't her one day.
This time she was producing and Shi Yuanyuan was selling. The two of them had such a tacit understanding in their cooperation that the other party took the initiative to state her requirements without waiting for her to remind him.
"Isn't this mainly about replacing electronic components?"
"Yes~"
Shi Yuanyuan felt that the person opposite him seemed particularly happy today. Before he had time to think too much, his thoughts were interrupted by a customer who came to ask questions. However, this customer today seemed a little weird.
Zhou Xingxing: "Shi Yuanyuan, right?"
Shi Yuanyuan looked at this sentence and felt inexplicably strange, but he still answered patiently with the mentality that God is the customer: "Yes, do you want to buy a dryer and wet machine?"
"I want to ask you something."
Shi Yuanyuan suddenly had a bad feeling. He picked up the paper cup on the table and took a sip of the dehumidifying tea inside. "What's the matter?"
Zhou Xingxing: "Are you Yan Lan's boyfriend?"
The tea in Shi Yuanyuan's mouth suddenly gushed out, and the tea went down his nose into his esophagus. He choked and coughed hard a few times, and it took him a long time to recover.
He was horrified and asked, "What did you say?"
Zhou Xingxing felt very strange. Could it be that he didn’t express himself clearly enough?
"Yes or no?"
Shi Yuanyuan rolled his eyes at the game panel: "No."
Zhou Xingxing turned his head and looked at the young face in the mirror. The face had fair skin and was handsome and elegant, the type of young male that was popular recently.
Thinking of this, he straightened his back and said confidently: "That's good, I like her, tell me about her preferences."
Shi Yuanyuan refused without a second thought: "I don't know what she likes, and she doesn't like your type."
Zhou Xingxing snorted and laughed. He knew everything, but he just didn't want to have more competitors.
He comforted her in what he thought was considerate manner: "You like her too? Don't worry, I won't tell anyone else."
Shi Yuanyuan was practically amused by the other party's shamelessness. He forced himself to hold back his anger and swear: "No, where did you hear that? Yan Lan and I are just an ordinary boss and employee relationship."
Zhou Xingxing pursed his lips and said, "Do you think we're stupid? If you two had no relationship, would she just hand over the goods to you for no reason? I heard you two even met in person."
Shi Yuanyuan was so angry that he almost vomited blood. What was going on? He went there to work with a clean conscience, but it turned out to be a face-to-face meeting!
Yan Lan has set a setting that prohibits others from adding her as a friend, so many people find her through the background of the trading center. She is too lazy to deal with these social etiquettes, and most of the time when she sees such attempts to make friends, she just rejects them directly.
So these people set their sights on him. He had met many players who wanted to exchange feelings with him on a daily basis, but this was the first time he had seen someone offering himself to him.
Zhou Xingxing sent another message: "Are you there? Tell me about her preferences. If I become successful, I will definitely benefit from your help."
Shi Yuanyuan got goose bumps all over his body. He rubbed his arms vigorously and took several deep breaths to calm his rage.
"She and I are just ordinary boss and employee. It's not the kind of relationship you're describing. She's a person who is very public and very private. She doesn't mix personal feelings with work."
In order to increase his persuasiveness, he also took a screenshot of his cousin's profile picture.
"See? She likes this type, manly and masculine. You're not her type, and of course, neither am I."
Zhou Xingxing didn't take it seriously at first, but when he saw the photo sent by Shi Yuanyuan, his confidence was inexplicably lowered. Just by looking at the picture, he knew that the other party was extraordinary. Could it be that Yan Lan really liked this cheat?
After persuading Zhou Xingxing to leave, Shi Yuanyuan began to respond to other customers who came to inquire.
The all-in-one wet and dry machine is expensive, selling at 10 times the cost price, but many players are still willing to spend the money.
"I think a basic RV is good enough. It's better to spend the materials than to save them."
"There are too many materials for a mid-range RV. Since I can't raise the money anyway, I might as well spend the money and buy a comfortable one."
Wang Da is the kind of person who would rather lie down and live comfortably than upgrade, and his hand speed is still very fast this time.
"Yuanyuan, come get a wet and dry machine!"
Shi Yuanyuan had met him once before at the supply station, and the two had interacted quite a bit, becoming familiar with each other. "No problem, how do I pay?"
Wang Da: "All electronic components."
As soon as the transaction was completed, he couldn't wait to plug it in and use it. He was born with rhinitis and was particularly sensitive to changes in the external environment. Recently, the humidity was too heavy and his nose was running non-stop.
But now with the wet and dry machine, his rhinitis will surely be much better.
As soon as Shi Yuanyuan's stock was sold out, Yan Lan made new ones.
They didn't stop trading until 12 noon.
Shi Yuanyuan handed the last batch of traded materials to Yan Lan. After thinking for a moment, he politely asked about the previous matter: "Yan Lan, has someone named Zhou Xingxing contacted you recently?"
"No, what's wrong?"
"That's good. If he says anything strange to you, just ignore it."
"OK."
After receiving a satisfactory answer from the other party, Shi Yuanyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and got out of the RV to exercise.
As a friend of Yan Lan, he didn't want to be misunderstood as Yan Lan's vassal, so improving his own strength was the best way to refute it.
After finishing the production work of the wet-drying machine, Yan Lan started to make dehumidifying tea. She first took some normal-sized coix seeds, red beans and poria cocos, and used her skills to magnify them several times, and then made them into dehumidifying tea cakes with special properties to sell.
Luo Wen also added some dried tangerine peel, a simple herbal medicine made from tangerine peel. She tried it and found that the effect was indeed much better than before.
When she was making it indoors in the morning, Snowball was driving the car. After taking the detoxification pill and taking a nap, it became lively again. However, Yan Lan watched over it more strictly and did not allow it to do anything other than driving.
The RV slowly stopped and a snowball flew in from the driver's seat and landed on her shoulder.
“Chirp~”
Yan Lan looked at it lovingly and stopped what she was doing: "You must be hungry, let's have lunch."
She received a lot of food from today's transaction, including a piece of bacon and a fresh sea bass. Today she plans to make a plate of steamed sea bass and a plate of vegetables.
I heard from afar that the player who traded the sea bass caught it during the last dungeon mission and had been keeping it in his backpack.
Speaking of dungeon missions, this game map is already halfway through, so I guess the time is almost up.
The balcony is connected to the outdoors, the walls and the floor are damp, and many places are covered with moss and green mold. I used the automatic cleaning card just yesterday, and it returned to its original state in just one day.
There was a damp and corrupt smell in the air, and she couldn't help but wrinkle her nose. She picked up the mop and started mopping the floor. After mopping several times, the water marks on the floor finally dried up a little.
But moss and mildew were difficult to deal with. She scraped them with a shovel and stopped when they looked a little less ugly. She planned to use the automatic cleaning prop card again tomorrow.
There are still 2 new cards and 1 old card that has been used twice. I originally thought that these could be used for several maps, but now it seems that it would be good enough to survive this map.
The air was damp and stuffy, and I started sweating after working for just a short while. I wiped my forehead, picked up the basket beside me and started picking vegetables.
The durian tree is now starting to bear fruit, but it is different from other fruits. Others mature in one day, but this one matures in three days, and only one fruit grows at a time.
But Yan Lan was also very satisfied, after all, it was durian, the king of fruits.
Snowball on Yan Lan's shoulder flew to pick the vegetables in the flowerpot as soon as he saw them. Yan Lan grabbed its two feet and pulled it back.
"Chirp~" Snowball turned his head and glared at her in dissatisfaction as his leg was pulled.
"Just drive for a few days, I'll take care of the rest."
Snowball clasped his paws together, pouted his mouth, and looked aggrieved and cute.
Yan Lan pretended not to notice and began picking vegetables. A new crop would sprout tomorrow anyway, so she picked them all: peppers, green onions, pea sprouts, etc. She put some of the harvested fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator to eat immediately, and the rest in the compartments of her backpack to keep them fresh.
Work was much easier in the afternoon, so she parked the car as soon as the sun went down.
The exercise time was increased to 2 hours, 1 hour was used to train the body's muscles, and 1 hour was used to practice the "Compendium of Martial Arts".
She has already completed the practice of the mental method and is now progressing to the stage of physical techniques. As long as she works harder, her physical attributes will soon break through 95.
At present, improving her physical fitness and upgrading her RV are both her top priorities.
The first player to upgrade will receive a rare treasure chest, which will likely contain a metal fragment.
She now has a metal fragment, and if you can barely count Ji Zhou's, there are two in total. As long as she collects 5 metal fragments, she will know its specific use.
Among the currently upgraded materials, there are more than 5,000 metals, glass, and rubber, with only 200 electronic components still missing.
Soon, she will be able to upgrade.
