At present, coal has many uses; it's indispensable for lighting, cooking, and water production. Although you can find some coal in wooden crates, it has extremely high practical value.
Gu Xili took out the manuscript, found an easy spot to finish it, and began typing.
As expected, the first tap she made produced the usual progress bar, but this time it was a mining progress bar.
Her digging just now, with one stroke, reached 5% progress, which is much faster than cutting down trees.
Gu Xi kept banging on the wall, and soon a piece of coal fell off.
【Coal 6】
Gu Xi put away the coal. He thought to himself that although mining coal was fast, the yield was not high. But in any case, for ordinary people, mining coal was much faster than opening a box to retrieve it.
She continued chiseling at the coal face, the sound of her extracting coal echoing throughout the room.
【Coal 8】
【Coal 4】
【Coal 10】
...
The amount of coal dropped each time and the time it took to dig it up varied, and before Gu Xi knew it, her backpack was full again. Following her usual routine, Gu Xi put the coal on the rack and emptied her backpack once more.
The act of tapping really creates mechanical movement; your muscles register your state and then you can't stop.
For example, right now, Gu Ximing knows she should stop, but she just can't help wanting to dig up the next one. The constant repetition of the thought, "The next one will be the end," makes it impossible for her to stop.
Waaaaah, it really hurts!
Who can understand this feeling?
[Game notification: Coal mining progress is 100%. Please leave the cave within 1 minute.]
[Game Warning: Warning! The coal mine is about to collapse! Evacuate immediately! Evacuate immediately!]
With a loud crash, a crack appeared in the wall. Gu Xi was stunned for two seconds before she reacted, and she hurriedly turned around and ran towards the cave exit.
"What kind of game is this? Not only is the coal mine limited, but the mine shafts can even collapse due to digging!" Gu Xi complained as he ran.
Gu Xi followed the excavation marks, turning and turning, but after half a minute she still couldn't see the exit. Was the cave she'd spent over two hours digging really that deep?! Why hadn't she reached the exit yet?!
Fortunately, she was clever and found the exit by following the direction of the wind.
"We've found the exit!" Overjoyed, Gu Xi quickened her pace. Gradually, the light became brighter and brighter, and she knew she had reached the cave entrance.
[Countdown to Coal Mine Collapse: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6]
"Stop reading! I've already finished!" Gu Xi roared.
【3, 2, 1】
Gu Xi was panting heavily three meters from the cave entrance when she heard a deafening roar. She turned around and saw that the once intact cave had been reduced to ruins.
Looking at her masterpiece, Gu Xi was still shaken, thinking that she must learn from this lesson next time she mines. She shouldn't go too deep, and she shouldn't dig a hole like a cheesecake, full of holes. What if she couldn't get out and got buried in there?
Just as Gu Xi was relieved to have escaped a disaster, she had no idea that the chat channel had been turned upside down.
District 2333, Regional Chat Group (84045/100000):
"Hey guys, come quick! Search for the trading spot for ID23333, it's terrifying!"
"I've read it. It's really scary. Who can afford it?"
"This isn't a question of whether we can afford it or not; it's a question of quantity! Who can produce so much stuff?"
"Mom, there's so much fruit, I really want to eat it."
"Looking at the numbers, forget about strawberries. A few people can still manage to get bananas through Taobao. Pears and coconuts have a chance."
"Wow, this is really eye-opening. The timber is being sold in hundreds of units at a time, and the amount of coal is unbelievable."
"Damn it, I realized I can't afford any of them."
"Let me tell you a little secret, ID23333 is definitely a big shot."
"23333, my ID is 233, how come there's such a big difference between it and ID 23333? I suspect the extra two 33s are just mocking me."
"Don't doubt it, this is it."
