Unexpected props?
What kind of prop could it be?
The limited-edition hint card is a small, palm-sized, silver-white card with exquisite engravings and a considerable weight in the hand.
[Should we use a limited-access hint card?]
Gu Mian answered without hesitation, "Yes!"
The card floated into the air and disintegrated into a text that only Gu Mian could see:
[There is a large lake 300 meters to the west, with clean water and teeming with fish and shrimp.]
[Go north for one kilometer, and after passing through a pile of rocks, you'll see an abandoned mine. Inside the mine is a special treasure chest, buried underground; you'll need to use tools to dig it out.]
So...
Gu Mian first opened the main group chat and asked if they had brought any excavation tools. After receiving a negative answer, she then opened the dedicated chat channel:
"Do you have any digging tools? We can trade them for food and soap."
Tan Ming: "Wow! Soap! Boss, can I trade you an entrenching tool?"
Gu Mian: "Sure, let's chat privately."
Tan Ming: "[Entrenching Tool] Hey boss, I'm here! How about this? Can we trade a bar of soap and any food that adds 30 points to satiety?"
Gu Mian: "..."
I think you're taking advantage of me.
"Choose either soap or food; if you don't want to, then forget it."
Tan Ming: "Boss, this is a multi-functional entrenching shovel! It can be used as a weapon and a digging tool. I brought it in specifically!"
Gu Mian: "Hmm, so do you want soap or food?"
Tan Ming: "...I want both."
Gu Mian: "So there's nothing to talk about?"
Tan Ming: "T^T Then I'll choose the soap!"
Gu Mian: "OK".
The transaction was over. Gu Mian held two entrenching tools, looking at the supplies on the ground with a headache. Her backpack was completely full...
Huh...
This bag seems to hold quite a lot...
Xie Yu, who was about to put her daughter into a travel bag, suddenly felt a chill run through her body.
Her expression hardened, and she instantly looked up to survey her surroundings. Was something strange happening again?!
But as soon as he looked up, he met Gu Mian's thoughtful gaze... um...
...
A moment later.
Xie Yu held her daughter in her arms and carried a travel bag full of food on her back, following behind Gu Mian with a blank look in her eyes.
How did she, a perfectly good mid-level player, end up as someone's luggage carrier?
Fine, I'll take him as my younger brother.
Xie Yu felt the weight of the food behind her and tried to convince herself that at least for the next two days she wouldn't have to worry about a lack of food and cleaning supplies.
At her current pace, Gu Mian could walk a kilometer in about seven minutes. She circled the pile of rocks twice before finally following the arrow to find the mine hidden behind the rocks.
The mine entrance is small, only wide enough for one person to enter.
Gu Mian picked up a stone from the ground and threw it in. A moment later, a dull thud was heard.
Judging from the sound, the mine shaft is not very high.
"It's so dark in here!" Xie Yu said breathlessly, peeking out from the side. "Do you want to go down and take a look?"
"Otherwise, why would I change to these?" Gu Mian raised her hands, showing her the two military shovels in her hands.
Xie Yu: "Um... okay, but it's so dark in here, isn't it a bit dangerous to go down directly?"
Gu Mian pondered for three seconds: "What you said makes sense."
Then she put down her backpack and took out a candle and a lighter: "We can use the candle for lighting later, that should be fine."
Xie Yu looked at the candle, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopping himself.
Gu Mian: "What's wrong?"
Xie Yu: "Hmm... I just didn't expect you to bring candles in..."
Gu Mian smiled and said, "I didn't expect you to bring the fishing net in."
Xie Yu: "..."
Well, she shouldn't have said that.
