24-year-old Yu Zhu is a security guard. Her daily routine involves sitting around reading newspapers, effectively skipping 40 years of hard work compared to others. Perhaps the heavens couldn't...
Chapter 34 September 29th
2:00 p.m.
After lunch break, Yu Zhu sat up on the simple bed, stretched himself, and prepared to work.
She lifted the curtain of the makeshift shed and first looked at the wind direction. After confirming that there was no change, she didn't have to adjust the sail.
Afterwards, like a department leader, he began to inspect the work of his subordinates. As soon as he walked to the makeshift shed next to him, he found that everyone was asleep.
All items:zzZ
Only Meihua was half asleep and half awake, nodding her head in sleepiness with her eyes closed. She woke up hazily when she heard footsteps, then quickly shook her head, looking like she was being exploited.
Yu Zhu manually helped the poor little chicken bury its head under its wings and whispered, "Go to sleep."
Plum blossom:zzZ
Falling asleep to the sound of rain really helps you sleep.
Seeing that nothing was wrong, Yu Zhu went to check the water tank again. The water level was already half full and it would be almost full before dark.
Finally, she came to her job.
There is a huge mid-level umbrella on the head, which can not only block the sun but also shelter from the rain.
Yu Zhu sat in a rocking chair under an umbrella, slowly baiting her fishing rod. As the temperature dropped during the day, if she had time, it would be better to go fishing as early as possible so that she could finish work earlier.
Today is a rest day. Although it is raining, the rain is not heavy. There is not even any wind or waves on the sea, let alone thunder, which does not affect fishing at all.
Throwing the fishing rod into the sea, Yu Zhu casually threw a cherry into his mouth.
Different from the sweet cherries in Europe, it belongs to the Chinese cherry, which is small and round, like a red pearl, sweet and sour, with rich aroma and full of juice.
Yu Zhu thinks that the fun part of this game is that its fruits are not just evolved from a string of data. Even fruits picked from the same batch have different flavors.
For example, this cherry is sweet and sour at first, another is sweeter, and another is like the one in her mouth, which can make people's cheeks tremble with sourness, and people will immediately feel refreshed.
No longer greedy, Yu Zhu turned on statue mode until half an hour later, when the float sank and a fish took the bait.
She immediately raised the rod and began to fish skillfully. Since the attack power was increased by 4 points, Yu Zhu's fishing seemed particularly easy. Soon she heard a "duang" sound, and she immediately knew what kind of fish she had caught.
[Ding! Congratulations, you caught a sea catfish!]
【Length: 30.36cm (medium)】
【Breakdown: 700g fish meat】
The first time she went fishing at sea, she caught this kind of hardhead catfish. If the fish was not slippery to carry, Yu Zhu felt that it had great potential to be used as a weapon. Its iron head was very powerful.
When she caught the second fish, Meihua had just cleaned the water and took a short nap. She was so happy to get her get off work card that she came to Yu Zhu's side.
There seemed to be an invisible instinctive attraction that made it like watching Yu Zhu fishing. Of course, it would be even better if it could catch a small fish for fun.
Seeing that Yu Zhu and Meihua didn't move, the man and the chicken didn't move either, and they seemed to be in perfect harmony.
Meihua: I’m here to join this family, not to cause trouble!
As the second fish took the bait, Meihua felt very involved and stretched her neck to watch Yu Zhu playing with the fish, looking very curious.
[Ding! Congratulations, you caught a pedal fish!]*
[Length: 20.34cm (small)]
【Breakdown: 300g fish meat】
The moment the fish jumped onto the raft, Meihua was frightened.
This is a fish of the family Glossopteriidae. Its body is flat like a tongue. If you don't see it clearly, you might think you have caught a tongue.
Yu Zhu originally wanted to throw it to Meihua for playtime. She knew it was coming, but when she turned around, it was gone. Where was such a big chicken?
Plum blossom: “Cluck!” It slipped away!
There was no way, Yu Zhu could only regretfully disintegrate.
The fishing rod and bait happened to be used up, so she bought a new set, spending 12 wooden boards, 16 ropes, and 50g of fish meat.
It took a total of 2 hours before the remaining three fish were caught one after another. Today's fishing limit (5 fish) has been reached, with a total of 3 small and 2 medium fish, 3 of which are new species.
[Ding! Congratulations, you caught a mudfish!]*
[Length: 17.23cm (small)]
【Breakdown: 250g fish meat】
[Ding! Congratulations, you caught a horsehead fish!]*
【Length: 33.36cm (medium)】
【Decomposition: 700g】
[Ding! Congratulations, you caught a Spanish mackerel!]
[Length: 24.51cm (small)]
【Breakdown: 350g fish meat】
[Ding, congratulations on unlocking 20 marine fish illustrations, and 300g of fish meat as a gift!]
Total harvest: 2650g fish
After fishing, Yu Zhu adjusted the rocking chair to the rocking mode. After lying there for a while, the wind direction suddenly changed. The rain obviously changed from \\\ to ///, entering the tailwind area.
Yu Zhu quickly put on his raincoat and came to the center of the raft. He changed the angle of the sail and made sure the rope facing downwind was not tied too tight. After some adjustments, the raft became significantly faster and slightly unstable.
Compared with Yu Zhu's swift steps, anyone with poor balance would fall flat on their face on this raft.
When she returned to the shed, she found that the items were stable and not affected. She felt relieved and a little hungry.
5:00 PM
Yu Zhu had dinner, 250g of golden soup beef noodles with vegetables and eggs, and 250g of spicy and sour boneless chicken feet.
Maybe because she had eaten boneless chicken feet yesterday, Meihua's acceptance was much better today.
It is now very comfortable. Knowing that Yu Zhu will not eat it, it has completely relaxed and is fearless.
Then, Meihua saw Yu Zhu eating a "bad" egg. Unlike the clean white eggs it laid, the color of this egg had turned dirty.
Its little head was filled with doubts, and it began to circle around Yu Zhu anxiously.
Yu Zhu: ...
"Are you trying to hypnotize me?"
Plum Blossom: “Chuckles!”
Yu Zhu didn't understand what it said at all. He just felt dizzy from the way it spun around. "Go play somewhere else."
Plum blossom: QAQ
The distraught plum blossoms could only huddle aside.
It didn't think Yu Zhu did anything wrong, it was all its own fault.
Just like No. 2 said No. 1 was a waste, it was also a useless chicken that could only lay one egg a day, which led to Yu Zhu eating the rotten bad egg.
After Yu Zhu finished her vermicelli and noodles with great relish, and ate a fragrant braised egg, she drank up every drop of the soup. She suddenly felt that no one was more frugal with food than her.
When she turned around, she found that Meihua was huddled in a corner, and the child was obviously sad.
Yu Zhu thought about it and actually she didn’t know what happened to Meihua just now.
At this time, anyone with a conscience would feel guilty and even reflect on whether their attitude is too bad.
But who made this person Yu Zhu?
She pondered for a moment and took out a cherry.
Yu Zhu: "Plum blossom!"
Meihua raised her little head when she heard the voice.
A juicy cherry was thrown in front of it.
Meihua subconsciously lowered her head and took a sip.
The next second, the chicken's entire head shrank from the soreness and began to shake its head.
Plum Blossom: “Giggle…Giggle…”
Simple Water Purifier No. 1: I said she was a devil, wasn’t I wrong?
Simple Water Purifier No. 2: That’s fruit, and she meant well.
Simple Grill: Have you ever seen a player feed fruit to a chicken?
Simple Bed: Fruit is a very precious food at sea.
Simple Shed: She couldn't be sure what each fruit tasted like.
Simple Water Purifier No. 1: ...
Simple Water Purifier No. 1: You guys are really good at lying with your eyes open!!!
Then, Yu Zhu gave No. 1 a slap on the shoulder so that it could also eat its fill.
On the other side, Meihua had recovered from the sourness, and unlike her previous lethargy, the whole chicken became extremely energetic.
Yu Zhu: The medicine works!
Fortunately, she was familiar with this disease, otherwise Meihua would not know how long she would suffer.
plum bossom:……
It makes the chicken want to roll its eyes.
Cherries have pits, but plum pits cannot be eaten. Seeing that it was better, Yu Zhu threw away the cherries and added 30g of fish, 10g of cabbage, and 10g of spinach to its bowl.
I don’t know if it was to get rid of the sour taste in her brain, but Meihua ate very happily this time, and the chicks pecked at it like crazy.
After Yu Zhu had dinner, the four 100L plastic barrels were full. She went to put away the plastic cloth used to collect water and prepared to store the plastic barrels together.
She just lifted one to test her strength. After confirming that she could lift it, she put the plastic bucket into the inventory and placed it somewhere else.
With such a useful thing as the inventory, there is no way she would go through the trouble of moving a 100L bucket by herself. That would be too stupid.
While the rain was still going on, Yu Zhu boiled a lot of hot water and took a good bath. After applying shower gel, he felt fragrant all over.
Afterwards, Yu Zhu watered the small and medium-sized wooden basins. She tried the method she had guessed before, which was to irrigate more, but found that it could only reduce the growth time a little bit, with little effect. However, considering that the planting period of seeds is not long, it is estimated that except for the best fertilizers, the effects of irrigation and ordinary fertilizers are very limited.
9:40 p.m.
Yu Zhu harvested 300g of lettuce and sowed coriander seeds. The planting period was 2 days.
After finishing the last bit of work, Yu Zhu was ready to go to bed. She received the profits from today's trading session.
In these peaceful days, Yu Zhu had no new recipes, so sales were naturally not very high. Most of the weapons were sold in the early morning, when players were fighting sharks. During the day, sales were relatively simple, with only a few stone axes sold.
A total of 5 simple beds, 8 simple sheds, 36 wooden spears, and 85 stone axes were sold.
The inventory is updated in real time: Wood planks x20576 (+876), Palm leaves x7761 (+114), Plastic x3741 (+52), Stone x2565 (+255), Rope x5845 (+262), Nails x2755 (+47), Fragments x1614 (+16), 7730g fish meat, 2800ml water, 200g salt.
Props used: fishing rod (durability 27) + bait x7, woven straw sandals (durability 13).
Because there are ropes on the bottom of the straw sandals to increase friction, Yu Zhu wears them to prevent slipping. Apart from that, no other props are used.
After browsing the data, Yu Zhu gradually fell asleep amid the sound of the dripping rain.
What she didn't expect was that the wind was favorable for the whole night, and the boat no longer deviated from its course. The dog game directly sent her to the station.
When Yu Zhu woke up again, what he saw was a huge island full of vitality.
