When they heard the word "hidden", Jiang Han and the others looked over immediately. Even Wei Xuan, who didn't quite understand the meaning of "hidden", raised her eyebrows curiously.
Lu Yao took out a peculiarly shaped water cup from the blind box. It was divided into two layers, the inner layer was surrounded by a circle of transparent liquid about two fingers thick, and the bottom was surrounded by a circle of golden liquid about one finger wide. The outer layer was just an ordinary cup.
"This is a filter-heating integrated water cup. The transparent liquid on top is the filter liquid, which can filter out impurities and bacteria in raw water. The golden liquid below is the crystal core energy liquid. Press the switch on the top, the crystal core liquid heats up, and heats the filtered raw water. The boiled water turns into water vapor and leaks into the outer cup, condensing into drinkable boiled water. When drinking water, you can directly take out the filter and heating device in the middle, or pour it into the cup lid."
Lu Yao spoke for a long time, trying to show the excellent performance of this water cup.
Jiang Han was stunned and said, "That is to say, with this cup, you don't have to drink stinky water anymore, you can drink clean hot water at any time?"
The water in the impermanent world, like the soil, is polluted to varying degrees, the water quality is very poor, and it has an unpleasant smell.
Some people have come up with many ways to solve the water quality problem, such as sedimentation and filtration. In the early days when resources were still abundant, disinfectants were also used, but the effect was not very good. If
people drink too much of this water, their immune system will gradually decline, and they are prone to skin diseases.
The skin of the whole body gradually becomes dry and gray, and becomes very fragile and breaks at the touch.
It is better for people with special abilities, who have stronger immune systems, but the incidence rate among ordinary people is very high.
But to survive, you can't live without water.
At the beginning, people with conditions precipitated raw water, filtered it many times, and then boiled it for drinking.
Although it still has a strange smell, it is easier to accept in their hearts.
Later, the environment became worse and worse, and survival became a big problem. People no longer considered the water quality problem, as long as there was something to drink.
A few days ago, many people found that there was clean water in the blind box store, and ran back to their residence to get pots and buckets to collect it.
No one would refuse clean and tasteless water to drink.
The water in the blind box store is clean and tasteless drinking water. Jiang Han did not doubt the function of the water cup, but was very curious why this water cup could easily solve the problem that they could not solve.
The transparent filter liquid is one reason. This juice comes from a self-cleaning tree in Alexandria.
Another reason is the filter. The raw material of this filter is a soft substance inside the crystal core.
When Lu Yao extracted the energy of the crystal core, he found that under the hard surface of the crystal core, there was actually a soft and elastic film.
This film can filter out all impure materials and keep the purest energy in the center of the crystal core.
This question is a bit difficult to explain. Lu Yao only said that special filtering materials were used, and Jiang Han did not ask any more questions.
The team members envied Chi Jin's good luck, and they secretly had a goal in their hearts.
The liquid crystal core knife and the integrated filtering and heating water cup are so desirable! Lu Yao
returned the water cup to Chi Jin and said thoughtfully: "I plan to relax the withdrawal amount of the crystal core blind box and allow two or three to be drawn at a time."
Jiang Han's eyes lit up: "When will it be relaxed?"
Many people should be reluctant to give up the crystal core blind box at 60 yuan, but he can!
He just wants the liquid crystal core knife and the water cup. Lu
Yao stood up and said, "Tomorrow, I have to stock up first. The crystal core blind box will continue to update styles and new hidden items. If you are interested, you can wait for a while."
Jiang Han's team left the blind box store, almost thinking about the liquid crystal core knife and water cup, preparing to go out hunting and collect more crystal cores for tomorrow's gamble.
Chi Jin was not prepared to go with them, so he separated halfway, holding the water cup, and slowly returned to Changming Base.
After drinking the medicine brought by the store owner, Nie Yu woke up soon.
She was a little surprised that she was not dead.
Wei Xuan stood by and hugged her happily when she regained consciousness. She picked up the blind box of instant noodles beside her and prepared to tear it open while explaining: "This is the blind box store. I brought you here. The owner and the people from Changming Base helped and saved you. Don't move yet, let's eat something." The blind box store is what
people in the nearby bases talked about the most during this period.
The superpower team that Wei Xuan and Nie Yu used to be in has also talked about this store frequently recently. They have all heard of it.
But because they are blood sheep, they only get a little food on weekdays and almost no crystal core income, so they have never dared to come here.
Nie Yu sat weakly on the chair, his lips whiter than paper, and listened attentively to the words of the people next to him.
"Hey! I seem to have drawn the hidden one!" Wei Xuan suddenly exclaimed, her face full of joy.
The card that fell out of the blind box had the words "Mushroom Chicken Soup Noodles" on the front and the word "Hidden" printed on the back.
In addition to the bread and seasoning packets, there were three packages of hidden condiments - a package of shredded chicken, a package of mushroom slices, and a small package of boiled green vegetable leaves.
Wei Xuan carefully broke the bread into three pieces. She only ate one portion for this meal. The seasoning and luxurious condiments were also divided into three portions. She took a large bowl of hot water and soaked the noodles.
While waiting for the noodles to be cooked, she told Nie Yu about Jiang Han's invitation, took out the liquid crystal core knife, showed it to her, and talked about how the owner used this knife to easily kill a huge mutant rat.
Nie Yu was speechless, but listening to Wei Xuan chatting, a glimmer of light appeared in her tired and quiet eyes.
After the blind box is opened, the packaging box will disappear after a while. Lu Yao gave Wei Xuan two sets of stainless steel bowls and chopsticks.
She poured the noodle soup into the bowl, carefully picked out the noodles and shredded chicken, mushroom slices, and green vegetable leaves, and pushed the extra half bowl in front of Nie Yu, smiling and saying: "This soup smells so good, eat it quickly. Tomorrow I will try hunting nearby and try to collect more crystal cores before the cold wave comes. You have to get better soon."
Nie Yu nodded, his voice hoarse: "Yeah."
The instant noodles with only a little seasoning tasted very light.
For Wei Xuan and Nie Yu, it was the most delicious meal they had eaten in many years.
The noodle soup has the aroma of chicken soup, the freshness of mushrooms, and the unique wheat fragrance of noodles. It is paired with finely shredded chicken and a small piece of crispy green vegetables. It is delicious and satisfying.
The two usually eat little, but the noodles and half a bowl of hot soup are enough to fill them up.
Nie Yu rested for a while and drank the medicine again. He felt that his body had recovered a lot, so he took the initiative to talk to Wei Xuan.
The two discussed and decided not to go to Changming Base for the time being.
When newcomers enter a new base, they usually need to pay a red crystal core to the base, called ground gold.
If you don't buy a residence permit for the base, you will have to find a temporary residence and pay another rent.
When the day of impermanence comes, you will also need to pay a large amount of meal allowance to the base, and you can only get a small amount of food and water supply in extremely difficult times.
This is true for all bases, the only difference is the amount of fees charged.
They already owe money to the store owner and Jiang Han. If they go to Changming Base, they don't know where to get the money for the huge expenses.
There are many vacant buildings around the blind box store. The two plan to find an empty house next to the blind box store and live in it temporarily.
It's so bright here, Wei Xuan feels more at ease than when she was in the base.
It will be very convenient to exchange blind boxes in the store when she gets the crystal core in the future.
The crystal core blind box is still not selling well in the store. Only Jiang Han's team from Changming Base insists on coming to draw every day. Ordinary people basically leave after getting a food blind box. Occasionally, someone draws one or two for fun.
Lu Yao increased the single-time purchase quantity of the crystal core blind box to three per person, and can sell more than 20 per day.
She designed several new models, saved up a few days' supply, and filled the crystal core blind box machine at once.
On this day, the cold wave also came quietly.
Usually, as soon as the blind box store opened, customers immediately poured in.
This day, after opening for a long time, no one came. Lu Yao felt strange and walked out of the blind box store.
Snow was flying all over the sky, as if she had suddenly walked from midsummer to severe winter. The temperature dropped sharply, almost freezing her into an ice cube.
She hurried back to the store, rubbed the goose bumps on her arms, used the magic of disguise to change into a thick long down jacket, and then dared to go out of the store again.
This cold wave is much colder than she expected.
With such bad weather, ordinary people may have difficulty going out.
The business of the blind box store will be affected.
There was a rustling sound of shoes stepping on the snow from the side, and Lu Yao turned his head.
Wei Xuan and Nie Yu, wearing thin single clothes, supported each other and walked towards the blind box store.
They now live in an empty shop not far from the blind box store. Relying on the liquid crystal core knife, Wei Xuan has collected a lot of crystal cores.
The crystal core coins owed to Lu Yao and Jiang Han have been repaid.
It's just that their foundation is too weak. Before the cold wave came, they failed to save winter supplies.
On this snowy day, they had to go to the blind box store to exchange food blind boxes in the wind and snow.
When the two saw Lu Yao, they noticed her thick down jacket at first sight. It looked very warm, and envy flashed in their eyes.
Lu Yao greeted them and turned back to the store.
Entering the store, it suddenly became warm.
The actual store of the blind box store is in Shake Light City. At this time, Shake Light City has just entered midsummer, and the temperature in the store is the same as Shake Light City. Lu
Yao wanted to take off his clothes when he came in, but his clothes would disappear if he took them off. Because there were customers, he immediately hid in the backstage space.
Wei Xuan and Nie Yu had been freezing outside for too long, so they sat in the store to cool down for a while before getting up to redeem four food blind boxes - two boxes of instant noodles, a cup of hot drink, and a serving of fruit.
Seeing the crystal core blind box machine filled with items next to the fruit blind box machine, Wei Xuan remembered the blind boxes that Jiang Han's team had drawn before, and hesitantly suggested in a low voice: "Xiao Yu, how about we also draw two crystal core blind boxes?"
Crystal core blind boxes are very expensive, and Wei Xuan has been reluctant to draw them.
It's too cold now, and they don't have clothes to keep out the cold, so it's really hard to bear.
If they could draw a solid fuel block or a warm baby, maybe it would be easier to bear.
Nie Yu has been recuperating during this period, and all the crystal cores were collected by Wei Xuan from killing mutant animals and plants.
She has no opinion on how to use them.
Wei Xuan exchanged 120 yuan of blind box coins, and she and Nie Yu each drew a crystal core blind box.
They couldn't wait to go back to their residence, so they sat in the store and prepared to open the box.
There was a voice outside the door, and several people braved the wind and snow to push open the store door. It was the four members of Jiang Han's team, plus the young man in sunglasses.
Chen Feng shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Is the owner here? The warm baby is so good! With it, I dare to go out on the first day of the cold wave!"
Li Cheng urged from behind: "There are not many people, draw the blind box quickly."
In the past two or three days, they have been drawing crystal core blind boxes, but they always draw warm babies, solid fuel blocks, and occasionally a small flashlight, but they have never opened a liquid crystal core knife and a filtering and heating integrated water cup.
Several people were a little disappointed, and the cold wave came.
They immediately took out the hand warmers and stuck them on their backs. The effect was better than they had imagined.
Just as the store owner said, one stick warmed the whole body.
Even if you walk outside in extremely cold weather, your body won't be frozen stiff.
It's much more comfortable than going out to find supplies before.
The five of them quickly exchanged blind box coins, and drew from the hot drink blind box machine all the way to the crystal core blind box machine, then sat down with a pile of blind boxes, ready to unpack them.
In the early stages of the cold wave, few people were willing to go out.
There were so many of them that they were not afraid to unpack the boxes in the store and then return to the base.
Here, Wei Xuan and Nie Yu had already unpacked the crystal core blind box.
Wei Xuan had just heard Chen Feng and others say that the hand warmer was useful, so she made a wish in her heart that she wanted a hand warmer.
The box was torn open, and a bag of solid fuel blocks fell out.
Wei Xuan quietly put it away, comforting herself in her heart that this is not bad, and it can be used as fuel for a long time.
Nie Yu tore open the box and pulled out a thin piece of warm yellow cloth. He held it in his hand and it felt light and had no texture, like plastic. He was confused: "What is this?"
Wei Xuan had never seen it before, but the blind box added an instruction manual for the item, so she would know after reading it.
- Liquid crystal core blanket, which generates heat through crystal core liquid, is very warm when covered on the body. Crystal core liquid can be refilled at the charging station of the blind box store.
Wei Xuan put the blanket on herself and said in surprise: "It's really giving off heat. I won't be cold at night with this."
Nie Yu took it and put it on, nodding happily: "It's too warm. It was still a little hot when I put it on in the store."
Wei Xuan was a little disappointed that she didn't win the hot pack, but she didn't care at all at this moment.
The members of Jiang Han's team were sitting at the table next to them. When they saw what they had unpacked, they were immediately interested.
Li Jing: "The owner has updated the style. The one they pulled out seems to be a new liquid crystal core blanket. Ah, I want that one too!"
With that blanket, she could stay in the room all day without moving.
A few minutes later, Li Jing had unpacked three crystal core blind boxes.
Solid fuel block, baby warmer, small flashlight.
Li Jing: "..."
It's too dark. I won't love it again.
Jiang Han looked at the new style pictures and said loudly: "I want the crystal core warm gloves, and the hydraulic pot is also interesting. A hidden new item has been updated. It would be great if I could draw it."
Chen Feng asked: "Brother Han, don't you want the liquid crystal core knife?"
Jiang Han: "I don't need it recently. Today, I want a cold-proof and warm item the most. Before the next transition period comes, I just need to draw the liquid crystal core knife." As soon as he finished
speaking, a liquid crystal core knife fell from the box.
Jiang Han: "..."
