Chapter 221: Finding a Place to Live
There were many players speaking on the public screen, saying that mudslides caused the most casualties, and almost 90% of the players who encountered them died.
Mountain torrents and floods are relatively less harmful and will not damage houses.
Only a few unlucky people in the same district as Jiang Wang who didn't have time to upgrade their stone houses lost their houses.
It’s a pity for the farmland and the crops in it. After the flood, the crops were basically washed away or completely drowned.
[Onion Soldier]: "I'm torn apart. All the onions I planted were drowned. I only have a few mutant ones left!"
[Jiang Mie]: "Don't mention it. I'm not much better. Fortunately, I harvested all the sugarcane yesterday and replaced it with some aquatic crops."
Jiang Mie praised herself for her cleverness, fortunately she was well prepared.
Lucky people are a minority, and most players are unlucky.
For example, [Er Mengmeng] hasn’t found her way home yet, and is wandering around like a headless fly.
It takes time to wait for the medicinal soup to be cooked, and Shu Lingyi is not an idle person.
She is far away from the water source, so no floods or mountain torrents can reach here.
There are many trees around, so it won't easily turn into a mudslide, so we have achieved temporary peace and safety.
"This is not a solution. Once these trees can no longer hold on, I will be doomed if a mudslide occurs here..."
But where did she get the blueprints for the drainage ditch?
Even if there is, if you want to build this thing to protect your territory, you will need professional knowledge to assist in constructing a complete drainage system.
Otherwise, if an amateur like her messes around, it will be a mess.
"Yi Yi, do you still want to go out now?"
"I'm just going to go outside and take a look. I'm feeling a little anxious. Maybe I'll feel better if I go out and take a look."
As soon as Shu Ling finished washing up, she pulled Luo Zhiqing along with her: "Come with me. Who knows, you might encounter something good with me, a walking koi fish!"
Shu Ling stared at Luo Zhiqing and clapped his hands violently, his dark eyes flashing with bright and sparkling light.
Luo Jinli Zhiqing: "So I am just a lucky tool."
Being looked at by Luo Zhiqing with resentment, Shu Ling put on his rain gear and went up to hold Luo Zhiqing's arm; "How could that be? Good sisters should share happiness. It's not good for you to stay at home all day."
"Let's go out and exercise."
Luo Zhiqing also put on her rain gear, and Shu Lingyi held up the big bamboo umbrella and walked out of the door, where the heavy rain was pouring down.
It seemed as if a curtain of water was erected in front of my eyes, and the scenery in the distance seemed particularly unreal and blurry.
"You go exercise in this weather, haha."
Shu Ling dodged guiltily, but still pulled Luo Zhiqing out.
Because above the water curtain, there are Xiao Ai’s hints.
[Go to the southwest of the territory. The one you've been dreaming of is right outside. If you miss it, you'll never have another chance.]
[There's only about ten minutes left. No, there's only nine minutes left. If you miss this opportunity, you'll never get it again.]
Xiao Ai’s tips haven’t appeared for a while.
This time it seems to be the highlight as soon as it appears.
Shu Lingyi said he couldn't let it go no matter what.
When I was preparing to go alone, I saw Xiao Ai suggesting that it would be best to go in pairs.
So Shu Ling had no choice but to persuade Luo Zhiqing to go with him, and the two of them walked carefully along the muddy path.
Before leaving the territory, I saw a large mass of something not far away.
"Yiyi, look at what that is? It's a huge lump."
Following the direction pointed by Luo Zhiqing, Shu Lingyi saw a large brown-yellow mass: "No, that looks like a person..."
The two of them hurried forward to take a look, and sure enough, it was a young man who looked very disheveled and was soaked all over.
He was wrapped in a straw raincoat and seemed to be holding a honey badger half the size of a human in his arms.
Shu Lingyi and Luo Zhiqing moved forward, using their bamboo umbrellas to shield themselves from the pouring rain, and the rate at which his health bar dropped also slowed down a lot.
"Um...save me..."
Qi Xuanze felt as if he was blocked by something, and the rain stopped hitting his face.
He slowly opened his eyes, half squinting, and looked at the two slightly familiar faces that came into his sight.
The heart that had been open-minded to death suddenly ignited a ray of vitality - these two people are here, so is she here too? !
“Save me…”
When Shu Ling looked at the man in front of her, she and Luo Zhiqing hesitated for a moment.
[If you hesitate, you will be defeated! This person has a strong will to survive and will be of great use to your territory. ]
"We have a territory nearby, but we can only take you in if you become a permanent resident."
Since Xiao Ai had spoken, Shu Lingyi naturally wanted to help.
Qi Xuanze heard Shu Lingyi's words and forced himself to sit up: "How do I become a permanent resident?"
Shu Lingyi reached out his hand and helped him up: "Let me help you over. You need to hand over your resources in exchange for gold coins. If you surrender, you will need to have houses, land, etc."
"Yes, we both chose to surrender to become permanent residents. Exchanging resources for gold coins is too expensive, and most people can't afford it."
Luo Zhiqing cooperated with Shu Lingyi's words and was very close to the territory's protective shield, just a few steps away.
Qi Xuanze reached out and touched the shield in front of him, and suddenly remembered that he seemed to have bumped into this thing when he was washed over by the flood just now.
It was the collision with this thing that caused him to faint for a short time.
Then his body was carried away by the receding water flow and appeared two meters outside the territory's protective shield.
The conditions for becoming a resident came to mind: exchanging resources for gold coins?
That unscrupulous price might as well cost him his life.
As for surrender, the system determined that he had nothing left, and not even a single gold coin could offset it.
"My house was flooded by a mudslide. Everything is gone. I can't surrender."
Shu Lingyi raised his eyebrows and said, "Don't you have anything valuable on you? Otherwise, you can trade with us. We can give you some gold coins to allow you to become a temporary resident."
Anyone who could survive the mudslide must have been lucky, and Xiao Ai asked her to save this person.
There must be a purpose behind this.
Qi Xuanze hesitated for a while, then took out a diamond treasure chest: "That permanent resident needs 200 gold coins. I only have this treasure chest, and I don't think it can be worth so many gold coins."
He took a look at the prices and found them so unreasonably expensive that he felt like his conscience had been eaten by a dog. A diamond treasure chest would probably have at most 150 gold coins.
He couldn't count on two hundred gold coins.
But if you open the treasure chest, you can get some drawings and sell them. If they are beneficial to you, you can create continuous value for the two people in front of you after learning them.
That can be the foundation for a peaceful and stable life.
