Countdown to the rainy season, day 27

Yun Mianmian was filled with joy, waiting for Blake to teach her survival skills and various experiences.

As a result, Blake took out a red cotton wooden horse from his sprint jacket pocket.

"This is for you. This is a lucky charm my family gave me, the Dala wooden horse, which is a symbol of knowledge, loyalty, strength and nobility, and can also convey luck."

Yun Mianmian: "..."

Blake looked serious, as if this was a very important item to him.

Yun Mianmian: "This gift is so precious! Since it is given to you by your family, I cannot accept it. It must represent your family's blessing to you, and you can also miss your family through it."

Blake: "Although it is, this is the most important thing I have. To express my gratitude, I am willing to give it to you."

Yun Mianmian saw that he said so, and it would not be good not to accept it, so she took it.

"Then I will accept it, thank you..." Yun Mianmian paused before she finished speaking.

I didn't expect it to be such a treasure!

She took it and read the introduction: [Dala Horse: A "lucky charm" from Sweden, containing the thoughts and blessings of relatives, and the luck value +3 after use]

Yun Mianmian has been in the game for so long, and this is the first time she has seen something that increases the luck value.

Oh my God, I have picked up a treasure!

Yun Mianmian was ecstatic!

She didn't want it just now, luckily she accepted it.

This can increase her luck!

Yun Mianmian used it directly, and now her luck is probably not comparable to many people.

Seeing that Yun Mianmian liked this gift so much, Blake was obviously very happy.

Just now Yun Mianmian was reluctant to accept it, and he thought she didn't want it.

Yun Mianmian: "This gift is great, I like it very much."

"That's good." Blake smiled and showed eight big white teeth.

Yun Mianmian blinked: "Do you want to rest here for a while? There are so many things, and you didn't eat much. I will prepare a sumptuous dinner for you in the evening."

The NPC has a lot of treasures, and she wants to dig more.

Blake still had many people to interview, but facing Yun Mianmian's cordial invitation, he was a little tempted.

He didn't eat much of the food on the table, why not stay and eat it first.

After all, his recent food is really not very good. He has lived on the island for a month, and he often eats one meal full and the next hungry.

Blake coughed and looked into the distance, "Okay then."

Let the other interviewees wait.

He will go over later, anyway, there is more than one interviewer.

"Do you mind if I sit down and eat with you? I think it may be boring to eat alone. Maybe it will be happier if two people are together."

"Of course I don't mind. You're right. I'm almost bored to death eating alone. God knows how I've been through these days." Blake was eager for Yun Mianmian to eat with him.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll get some mushrooms and potatoes to grill together, they're delicious too."

Grilled mushrooms

and grilled potatoes are both good. And lettuce, wrapped with grilled pork belly, is no different from eating at a barbecue restaurant in the real world.

Blake couldn't help but sigh, "This kind of life is so comfortable."

But the next second, he became serious again, "But it's okay to enjoy it occasionally, but don't forget my pursuit. Surviving in the wild and breaking through myself is my goal."

Yun Mianmian took two kinds of mushrooms, two potatoes, and a handful of lettuce, washed them, and put them in a basin and brought them over.

She grilled them herself, and the taste was better than Blake's.

After all, Yun Mianmian's cooking proficiency has now risen to 40.

The taste of the grilled food she grilled has its own buff, which makes people happier and more relaxed after eating it.

The more Blake ate, the hungrier he became, and the more he ate, the more moved he became.

"It's so delicious, so delicious."

"It's richer, more juicy, and more..." Blake was at a loss for words, but he had already expressed what he wanted to say.

Yun Mianmian smiled and said, "If it tastes good, eat more."

Blake nodded and ate.

Yun Mianmian roasted it so quickly that he couldn't finish it all.

During this time, Yun Mianmian kept chatting with him.

"Blake, do you know what kind of island we are going to for this survival test? You are experienced and should be familiar with the terrain and environment of the island."

Blake thought for a moment, "There are several islands this time."

Yun Mianmian: "Really? Then do you know what the island that District 3 is going to look like?"

"I can't tell you that."

Yun Mianmian didn't force it: "Okay, but we can only bring three things for this survival test. What do you think we should bring?"

Blake: "Fire is essential, and the second is a tool for self-defense and tree cutting. The last thing depends on what you value more."

Yun Mianmian thought to herself that Blake's opinion was the same as hers.

What she valued more was probably being able to get a good ranking.

In order to be recognized by other players, she had to perform better.

In these three days, she had to live better than other players, so her gathering skills and cooking skills would come in handy.

Obtaining food and cooking should be more important to her.

If she wanted to ensure that she had a good meal, what would be more practical to bring!

Of course, a good cooker.

Yun Mianmian had a plan.

"As for fire, how about I bring a lighter?"

"Lighters are convenient, but I think flint is safer."

Yun Mianmian had never used flint, nor had she seen it in the trading center. It was only sold in the mall, and the price was not cheap.

Ten starfish coins can also buy a flint.

"Why?"

Yun Mianmian has been using a lighter, and there is no problem.

"First of all, flint will not be affected by strong winds, heavy rain, low temperatures, high altitudes and other natural environments, but lighters may not work. And you don't have to worry about flints not igniting due to being too wet, and you can reuse them thousands of times, but lighters rely solely on fuel, and they are useless when the fuel is gone."

Yun Mianmian suddenly realized that this is the case.

She continued to ask: "The most important thing for survival should be fresh water resources, right? Do you have any good ways to find fresh water resources?"

Blake smiled, "Don't worry about this, it will rain in the next few days."

Yun Mianmian also smiled, how can there be a shortage of water in the rainy season.

Yes, after the rain water is boiled, it becomes very clean.

Yun Mianmian has another most important problem.

How can she catch prey without carrying traps and snares?

Handmade traps and fishing nets are very important.

Blake felt a little sleepy after eating.

It was getting late, and it was time for him to leave.

At this time, Yun Mianmian took out a bottle of apple juice, "Blake, do you want to drink juice?"

This bottle of juice has been with her for a long time. It would be good to give it to the NPC to clear the stock.

He just ate so much, and drinking apple juice can not only relieve greasiness but also promote digestion.

Blake drank half of it in one gulp and burped at the end.

After drinking the juice, it was sour and it made him energetic.

It was sour and cool, and it was a magical tool to refresh.

Yun Mianmian: "Blake, you are so amazing, you must be very good at making traps. It must be very important to learn how to hunt to survive on a deserted island. Can you teach me?"

Yun Mianmian's admiring eyes satisfied Blake.

Since she was full and drunk, it would be okay for her to be taught.

And Yun Mianmian just asked the right person.

Blake was very good at making all kinds of traps. Whether it was catching rabbits or catching birds and fish, he had his own unique secrets.

"Bamboo or vines, stones, and sticks are the best materials for making traps, and these things are very easy to obtain on a desert island."

Blake was able to survive on a desert island for more than 60 days, all thanks to his craft. A good trapper can obtain a stable source of food.

And food is the only condition that allows you to persevere and live a better life.

"If you want to learn, I can teach you."

Yun Mianmian was very happy, just when she was thinking about how to teach.

[Get Blake's personal teaching and learn trapping techniques.]

Yun Mianmian was surprised and happy.

It can be like this.

When she looked at her character information, it really changed.

Player: Yunmianmian

Age: 22 years old

Stamina: 60 (upgradable)

Strength: 56 (upgradable)

Spirit: 68 (upgradable)

Luck: 91 (upgradable)

Basic cooking (40/50)

Basic alchemy (5/50)

Basic hunting (10/50)

Advanced gathering (95/100)

Basic swimming (4/50)

I haven't checked for a few days, and my basic attributes have changed subtly.

Stamina, strength, and spirit have all increased by a few points.

Only luck has increased by three points after using the props just now.

Yunmianmian's initial hunting value is 10 points, probably because she has caught prey on the island several times, but she used the system's props, and she has never made traps by herself.

But just now, Yun Mianmian had a lot of knowledge about trap making and wilderness hunting in her mind.

For example, she knew how to make tunnel traps, snare traps, log traps, and snare traps.

There are also bamboo fish cages, rope weaving fishing nets, or using mineral water bottles to catch fish.

Yun Mianmian was very happy to learn a lot of new knowledge, which also meant that she could make these things by hand and sell them.

I don't know if it's difficult or not. After learning it, it should be easier to draw a picture and use a workbench.

Give it a try later!

Another way to make money.

Before Blake left, Yun Mianmian brought him some fruits and mineral water, "These are for you, eat on the way."

"You are so thoughtful!" It was the first time that Blake met a player as generous as Yun Mianmian, who gave him something before leaving.

Is there anything else he can give Yun Mianmian?

Blake began to worry.

There was nothing in his backpack, just some survival equipment, maybe Yun Mianmian would need it?

"I don't have anything else to give you, this is an umbrella rope that I have used for a long time, I'll give it to you."

Yun Mianmian took it, and now she would gladly accept anything Blake gave her.

"Okay, thank you."

Black: "Then I'll go, it's getting late, I still have to go to other players."

Yun Mianmian waved goodbye to him, and after the person walked away, she hurriedly checked the properties of the umbrella rope.

[Umbrella rope: It seems to have been used for a long time, but it is still a very durable survival equipment. It can be used to tie waterproof cloth, build shelters, and can also be used for fishing.]

It doesn't seem to have any special functions, it's just an umbrella rope.

Although, it is also a good thing.

Maybe the previous Dala Trojan Horse made Yun Mianmian expect too much from the things given by Black.

After accepting the umbrella rope, Yun Mianmian glanced at the system notification.

Tomorrow morning, there will be a notification that players who pass the interview will be directly teleported to a deserted island by the system.

And it will be random, and the location of the teleportation is random.

This means that you may end up on a tree, in the water, or in front of a beast.

Many people in the chat channel are complaining about the survival masters, saying that they will definitely not pass the interview.

There is even a player who is a survival master who has fainted on a kayak. After being rescued with great difficulty, he was woken up and fed some water, but fell asleep again. In short, there are all kinds of survival masters.

Blake, whom Yun Mianmian met, is the most normal and friendly one.

Nie Yangguang happened to speak in the chat channel.

Nie Yangguang: "Haha, the survival master gave me a knife, it seems pretty good."

"Damn, Nie Yangguang, are you really that lucky?"

"What knife? Things given by NPCs should all be treasures!"

"I'm jealous, can Nie Yangguang share

some of his good luck with me?" "I'm really curious about your luck value, Nie Yangguang. NPCs gave you gifts, what did you do?"

Nie Yangguang: "It's just an outdoor knife. I can use it this time."

"I didn't do anything, I just chatted with him and listened to his stories. He told me a lot of thrilling stories he encountered in the wilderness."

"My survival master hasn't come yet. Is he not coming? I signed up? The results will be announced tomorrow morning. What if I don't have an interview?"

"Mine didn't come either, so strange."

Yun Mianmian sent a message to Luo Luo, "Has the survival master arrived on your ship?"

"Not yet, but I think I saw him from a distance."

Yun Mianmian: "It's so late, it's almost dark."

Luo Luo: "I don't know what's going on, but I'm glad he's here."

Yun Mianmian thought, it can't be Blake.

Because she kept Blake for too long, he was delayed from interviewing other players.

It just so happened that Luo Luo was his next interviewer.

Yun Mianmian quickly sent a message to Luo Luo.

"Look at the man who interviewed you. Is he a foreigner? He's wearing a dark blue sprint jacket and is very tall."

Luo Luo: "I can't see clearly now, wait a minute."

"It seems so. He's getting closer and is about to get on the boat."

Yun Mianmian: "If his name is Blake, then he's the one who interviewed me. He has a good personality, but he's full. You don't have to treat him to food and drinks. Just give him something, such as a souvenir or a survival tool, and then let him teach you survival skills. Do you have an umbrella rope? Giving him an umbrella rope or something like that should be fine."

Yun Mianmian could have completely not told Luo Luo these, but she still said it.

Although she was determined to win this competition, Luo Luo was also very strong. If Yun Mianmian failed, it would be a good thing for Luo Luo to be able to enter the top ten of the rankings.

It doesn’t matter if Luo Luo gets ahead of her and gets more rewards.

Luo Luo should share the good things with her.

Since he has helped her level up, he will continue to help. Through so many things that have happened recently, Yun Mianmian realized that having a powerful teammate will definitely be helpful in the future.

Now it is a single-player experiment in wilderness survival, what if there is a team competition in the future.

-

Half an hour later, Luo Luo has not replied to the message. Yun Mianmian guessed that Blake is still on her boat, which is a good thing.

It also means that Luo Luo can get more benefits.

Yun Mianmian has started to pack up her things. She has to go out again tomorrow, and there are many things to do on the boat.

She can only bring three things, and Yun Mianmian is still worried.

In addition to the lighter and the knife, what is the other thing to bring.

Should I bring a waterproof cloth, cooking utensils, or just a sleeping bag.

The waterproof cloth is very important. It can be used to build a shelter, collect water on rainy days, and even be used to make a boat.

But without cooking utensils... many foods are difficult to cook.

I think Gu Fang shared before that you can use bamboo as a container to make food.

But it's still a little bit lacking.

You always have to make a choice.

In addition to her, others are also struggling.

Bringing only three things is too little, but if the backpack is not locked, it's not wilderness survival at all, but camping.

I thought of it!

Doesn't she have a sewing machine!

She can use a huge piece of waterproof cloth to make a coat, the kind that can be disassembled at the seams.

In this way, at least it can be used as a floor mat.

Otherwise, it rains every day, and she can't sleep on the wet ground.

As for the issue of feeling cold when sleeping with only one piece of clothing, she could try to see if she could hunt down an animal with fur, so that she would have fur to keep warm.

In short, this was the only way to bring both the cookware and the waterproof cloth.

However, Yun Miangmian had never used a sewing machine to make clothes.

After thinking about it, she decided to ask someone else to do it.

There happened to be a cooperating player who also had a sewing machine. She had made all the hats, raincoats and other clothes in Yun Miangmian's trading center and gave them to Yun Miangmian to sell.

Yun Miangmian forgot who this player was, so she had to ask Nie Yangguang.

Nie Yangguang was responsible for communicating with the players who made clothes, and now he was also the one selling the clothes.

Yun Mianmian was looking for a player who made clothes, and Nie Yangguang immediately recommended her to

a player named Chu Hanshuang.

When Yun Mianmian contacted her, she was quite surprised.

Chu Hanshuang: "Hello, what can I do for you?"

Yun Mianmian: "Hello, it's like this, I want to ask you for a favor, time is a bit urgent, I need a coat made of waterproof cloth, but it must be made of a whole piece of cloth, without cutting, can you do it?"

Chu Hanshuang: "Of course I can, but it will take some time, when do you want it?"

"It must be done tomorrow morning. I will take it to the survival test. If you need any reward, just ask."

"Reward is secondary. The main thing is that I can't work at night."

Yun Mianmian directly handed over a tar lamp, "I will provide you with lighting. What else do you need?"

A tar lamp is not cheap in Yun Mianmian's trading center.

Chu Hanshuang has emptied her own supplies since she made the workbench and sewing machine. She is currently in a tight financial situation and cannot afford a tar lamp.

"Waterproof cloth, needle and thread, iron blocks, and ten iron ores as rewards."

Yun Mianmian: "OK, can you finish it tonight?"

Chu Hanshuang: "I think I can. I'll try my best."

Yun Mianmian handed over the necessary materials, and as for the ten iron ores, she will give them to her when the transaction is held tomorrow.

She gave Chu Hanshuang an extra tar lamp in case she didn't have enough.

Although it was a bit expensive to make this dress, there was no other way for the competition.

Maybe this waterproof coat could bring her a lot of use.

-Luo

Luo finally sent a message.

"Mianmian, I did as you said. I gave Blake an umbrella and a pair of gloves. Then he taught me how to make a fishing net and gave me a compass."

In comparison, Blake gave her much more than he gave Luo Luo.

But Luo Luo was already very satisfied.

After all, others had nothing. If it weren't for Yun Mianmian, she might not have gotten these benefits, and she might not even be able to gain the favor of NPCs.

After all, one hundred people have to be selected from three thousand people. It is not only about strength, but also about favorability.

At least I can get the NPC as a gift, so there will be no problem passing the interview.

Yun Mianmian: "What are you going to bring this time?"

Luo Luo: "In addition to fire, I want to bring a knife and a bow and arrow."

Bows and arrows are very suitable for hunting, and some animals can only be hunted by long-range attacks.

Yun Mianmian also thought about bringing a bow and arrow, but her archery skills are only average, not outstanding. In this kind of test, she still has to play to her strengths.

Her strengths are gathering and cooking.

And now she has learned how to make traps, so she can hunt without a bow and arrow.

Yun Mianmian: "It will rain in the next few days. Remember to wear a waterproof coat, and it's best to wear a hat. If you don't have one, change it quickly."

Luo Luo: "Okay, I have one."

Yun Mianmian: "Come on, I hope we can all be in the top ten of the whole region."

Luo Luo: "Yeah! Come on together! I'll give you half of the reward I get when the time comes."

Yun Mianmian: "We'll talk about it then."

Yun Mianmian finished cleaning up the boat, harvesting the vegetables and dealing with the fish in the net, and it was getting late.

Thinking of the hard days tomorrow, she had another midnight snack. The food now is sufficient, but it may not be the case when she is on the deserted island. She doesn't know whether the resources where she is dropped are sufficient. It

is unknown how many people there will be on an island, and maybe they will have to fight for resources if there are not enough.

A thousand people, maybe the distribution in different areas is chaotic, just like the exams in the real world, not all the students in the exam room are from the same class.

Yun Mianmian guessed that she might be assigned to the same island with players from other areas. If she could meet them, she might be able to find out about the situation in other areas.

But these are all unknowns, so she should go to bed early tonight.

I may not be able to sleep for the next three days.

I hope I will have good luck tomorrow.

-

When I woke up, there was a strong wind and heavy rain outside the cabin, and the temperature was lower than the previous days.

The twenty-seventh day of the Gregorian calendar at sea.

Weather: heavy rain.

Temperature: 4°

It was cold before, but usually it was around 10°. Now it is so cold in broad daylight, and it will drop below zero at night.

Yun Mianmian felt bad.

It is estimated that the weather will be colder after the rainy season, which has already begun.

And the last three days will not be easy for the players.

This survival test seems to be more difficult than expected.

The system notification came.

[Congratulations to the players for passing the interview. Please be prepared. Apart from tops, jackets, pants, shoes, socks and three items, you cannot carry anything else on your body, otherwise it will be directly destroyed by the system. After half an hour, the backpack will be locked and the player will be randomly teleported to an uninhabited desert island.]

Yun Mianmian looked at the message and found that Chu Hanshuang had sent the finished jacket.

She checked the introduction and confirmed the transaction after confirming that it was what she wanted.

The jacket is made of a three-meter by two-meter waterproof cloth and has not been cut, but it looks a bit strange because some places are directly folded and sewn together, with zippers and pockets.

Chu Hanshuang thoughtfully made two big pockets for her, and also sewed inner pockets inside the clothes. Most importantly, she also filled them with some cotton to increase the warmth retention.

The folded part in the middle was made into a hat, which is rainproof and windproof.

Although this dress is not very beautiful to wear, it has all the functions that Yun Mianmian needs.

Yun Mianmian was very satisfied and gave Chu Hanshuang some more Chinese cabbage. She had just harvested a lot of vegetables last night, and she couldn't finish eating a lot of them. If she left them here, they would go bad later.

So she put them all on the trading center and gave some to Chu Hanshuang to express her gratitude.

Yun Mianmian: "Thank you, I like them very much. These vegetables are for you."

Chu Hanshuang: "Thank you."

Yun Mianmian still has important things to do.

Roll the dice.

The number on the lucky dice today was extremely important to her.

Yun Mianmian stared at the dice, hoping it would be a good number.

Finally it stopped.

It was 1!

How could it be 1?

Yun Mianmian: Absolutely!

What she hoped for in her heart was that everything would go well and that she would be blessed with good fortune.

1 is good things come in pairs, no matter what you gain, you can get double, but going to a deserted island to survive today is a bit of a waste.

But maybe it will work wonders.

Yun Mianmian had to comfort herself like this.

After thinking about it, Yun Mianmian still spent ten Starfish Coins in the mall and bought a flint.

Since Blake said that flint is better, she still listened to him. Although it is a bit expensive, it is better to risk one's life. If the lighter doesn't work, it will be troublesome.

She really doesn't want to make fire by drilling wood on a rainy day.

Flint is in the survival equipment category.

This category is full of practical outdoor survival items, such as waterproof cloth, parasol rope, compass, survival backpack, space blanket, headlamp, and various outdoor knives.

Yun Mianmian found a super awesome knife, which is priced at 5,000 Starfish Coins.

It is called the "Jungle King" survival knife.

This multi-functional combination knife has many functions, and even has fish hooks and fishing lines, luminous compasses, signal mirrors, hemostatic patches, scalpels, needles and thread... It

is simply a must-have artifact for outdoor survival.

But it is too expensive.

Yun Mianmian can't afford it!

I just hate that I have no money, otherwise I would have bought this knife directly, and this survival experiment would be much safer.

It seems that there are still many good things waiting to be discovered in the mall, as long as you have money.

This is a good opportunity to earn Starfish Coins. If you can get into the top ten in the overall ranking, you will get 10,000 Starfish Coins.

Half an hour passed quickly.

Yun Mianmian was fully equipped with a flint, a blue steel dagger, and a special frying pan, ready to go!

Seeing a ten-second countdown in front of her, Yun Mianmian took a deep breath and got ready.

In a blink of an eye, she felt her body being pulled up by a strong force, and she couldn't help but close her eyes.

But in a few seconds, she found herself thrown into the woods.

It was still raining in the sky, but not as heavy as on the sea, just a drizzle.

She quickly got up, put on her hat, and observed the surrounding environment.

The air was moist and there was a smell of damp earth.

The light screen that could be opened at any time before could no longer be opened. She felt like a person who was thrown here. This was not a game, but a real survival test.

Without the light screen, it was very uncomfortable. It felt as if she had returned to the real world, but was on a deserted island.

Yun Mianmian took a deep breath and calmed down.

Now her first step was to walk around and observe the surrounding environment, and then find a place suitable for shelter.

If the resources nearby are abundant and there are no large wild animals, then she can set up camp here with peace of mind.

Her every move at this moment has appeared on the light screens of some players in Zone 3.

From the moment she landed, the live broadcast began.

Many players in Zone 3 specifically searched for Yun Mianmian's name to see her.

"Oh my god! Is this Yun Mianmian?"

"No way? Are you sure? Yun Mianmian is so young and beautiful?"

"What a beautiful girl! I never thought that the first place in our three districts would be such a beautiful girl."

"I want to see what kind of strength Yun Mianmian has, she is so strong!"

"Hehe, it seems that failing the interview has its advantages. You can watch a beautiful woman live broadcasting her survival on a deserted island."

"The place where she fell doesn't look that good!"

"It's already good. I just came from Gu Fang's live broadcast room. Gu Fang fell directly into the river."

"There's no way, everyone knows that Gu Fang is a non-African!"

"What is Yun Mianmian doing? Everyone else is rushing to make shelters, why is she still walking around?"
