Chapter 52 A Tree of Oranges, Two Oddballs
Jin Baiwan: "As expected, Yang Xu is no good!"
Jian Lin: "Hmph, I almost forgot, Ji Wenhua, didn't you just kill someone? Who are you trying to impress with your sanctimonious act now?"
Ji Wenhua: "I..."
Ji Wenhua was speechless.
Ji Xinghan was slightly touched. She hadn't expected that the people in the survival group would defend her without even asking what happened.
In that case, she should also defend herself.
Although she didn't care much, she shouldn't let Ji Wenhua have his way.
Ji Xinghan sneered: "I'm just retaliating passively. What, am I supposed to just obediently wait to die if Yang Xu tries to kill me?"
She casually took a screenshot and posted it online. It showed the game notification: "Due to your team's passive counterattack, you can collect 50%-70% of the supplies in Yang Xu's inventory!"
Players reacted differently immediately after seeing this:
"Huh? Ji Xinghan was just reacting defensively!"
"So, Yang Xu wanted to kill someone to steal the treasure, but ended up being killed by Ji Xinghan instead, right?"
"Yes, yes, he deserved it!"
Yan Miaomiao: "But, is this how you kill someone? I still can't accept it!"
She immediately faced strong criticism:
"Heh, I just don't understand, why are you all researching passive and active killing? This is about survival, so what if you kill someone intentionally?"
"Yeah, it's survival in the world of Survival, it's either you or me, and you guys are still debating whether or not you can kill someone? That's hilarious!"
"You can get the supplies in his backpack after killing him. That's a huge temptation. If it were you, could you resist?"
"Heh, even if you can hold back, how can you be sure the person opposite you can?"
"It's alright, a saint like Yan Miaomiao won't live long!"
"Ha, you're so naive! You actually think she's a saint? If you met her, you wouldn't even know how you died!"
Yan Miaomiao dared not speak again.
Ji Xinghan swung his pickaxe and began mining.
It was so hot inside the cave that she was drenched in sweat after digging out just two pieces of ore.
I even felt a little dizzy.
Ji Xinghan glanced at his watch. It was almost ten o'clock, and the temperature was 35 degrees Celsius!
The temperature is rising way too fast!
Ji Xinghan regretted not bringing a towel. She wiped her sweat again and continued her efforts.
Survival Team Member Jin Baiwan: "Ji Xinghan, where are you? I've found the lake!"
Ji Xinghan: "I'm mining, you go ahead and do your work."
Jin Baiwan: "Alright, I'll try to find a fishing rod or net!"
Ge Xiaochuan couldn't hold back any longer: "Jin Baiwan, the temperature is about to rise, hurry up and find supplies to upgrade your vehicles! What are you doing fishing? Are you risking your life for a bite to eat?"
Jin Baiwan: "Ge Xiaochuan, what are you saying? Isn't life just about eating and drinking? If I don't eat or drink well, I'll be in a bad mood, and if I'm in a bad mood, I'm prone to depression. If I'm depressed, I might not want to live anymore. If I can't go on living, will you take responsibility?"
Ge Xiaochuan:......
After a long pause, he finally managed to utter a single sentence: "Weirdo!"
Jin Baiwan: "Ge Xiaochuan, it's so hot, what did you have for breakfast?"
Ge Xiaochuan said irritably, "We're all just trying to survive, why are we even eating breakfast?"
Jin Baiwan: "Tsk tsk tsk, I know, you don't eat lunch either!"
Ge Xiaochuan: "That's right, I only eat dinner tonight!"
Jin Baiwan: "Hmm, you only eat one meal a day...weird!"
Ge Xiaochuan:......
Jian Lin: "Alright, alright, everyone, stop talking. It's too hot, and everyone's getting a bit irritable."
Ji Xinghan glanced at the chat screen and continued mining diligently.
Actually, she felt that Jin Baiwan and Ge Xiaochuan were both a bit abnormal.
One of them was like a starving ghost, constantly searching for and eating meat, eating all kinds of meat, without bothering to find resources, and even giving up rare materials for a bite of meat.
The other one is a miser, extremely stingy, and always deprives himself of food and drink. He eats only one meal a day, drinks a small amount of water, exchanges all his food for other ingredients, and focuses on upgrading his vehicle.
However, upon closer reflection, both of them are actually doing quite well.
They all upgraded to vans early on, making them top performers in the survival world.
Ji Xinghan shook his head. Forget it, why should I care about others?
Everyone has their own way of surviving!
She lowered her head and continued mining.
Finally, the ore was all mined out; she had mined a total of 25 iron ore pieces.
Her clothes were already soaked through, almost dripping wet.
More than half an hour has passed, and she has drunk a full bottle and a half of water.
As Ji Xinghan stepped out of the mine, the sunlight immediately shone down, intensely bright.
Immediately, she broke out in a sweat again.
Suddenly, Jin Baiwan shouted in the small group: "Ji Xinghan, come on, hahaha, there are oranges! What a big orange tree! Come on, let's pick some oranges!"
Ji Xinghan was overjoyed: "Where?"
Jin Baiwan immediately sent a coordinate, which was not far from Ji Xinghan's location.
Ji Xinghan immediately rushed in that direction, and about ten minutes later, she saw an orange tree.
The orange tree is about three meters tall, and it is covered with round, golden oranges.
Jin Baiwan stood under the tree, happily picking the fruit.
Seeing Ji Xinghan approach, he waved his arms vigorously: "Quick, Ji Xinghan, it's ripe, it's ripe! Come on, let's pick them together!"
Ji Xinghan paused for a moment.
Jin Baiwan is quite generous; when he spotted oranges, he even invited others to pick them together.
He enjoys sharing and is a cheerful and generous person.
She can't just take it for nothing.
After thinking for a moment, Ji Xinghan sent five iron blocks to Jin Baiwan.
Jin Baiwan was stunned: "This...isn't that necessary?"
Ji Xinghan: "Take it!"
Jin Baiwan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll give you a few fish!"
Ji Xinghan started picking oranges, and the two of them worked together. In no time, they had picked all the oranges.
Ji Xinghan got 180 oranges, and Jin Baiwan picked 210.
The two of them reaped a great harvest.
Jin Baiwan happily sent a picture of oranges to the group chat: "Come on, look, big oranges, haha, come on, everyone take a few!"
Jian Lin: "Tsk, with this temperature, isn't it summer now? Oranges are ripe in summer?"
Song Zhuo: "A few days ago, someone picked peaches? And someone picked strawberries. It's just a game, don't take it seriously!"
Jian Lin: "That's true, don't take it so seriously!"
She called out, "Jin Baiwan, I've gotten you a new fishing rod, here you go!"
Jin Baiwan was overjoyed. He tapped the chat screen, wiped his sweat, and exclaimed with pride, "Hahaha, great! I finally got a fishing rod! Ji Xinghan, let's go fishing!"
Ji Xinghan replied somewhat reluctantly, "Alright!"
It's so hot, she doesn't want to eat fish at all. If it weren't for wanting to give Dingdang a change of pace, she wouldn't want to go fishing at all.
The two returned to the lakeside, and Jin Baiwan took out a fishing rod, baited it, and began fishing.
Ji Xinghan turned around and went to continue cutting down trees.
It's already a little past 11 a.m., and the temperature is 36 degrees Celsius. She plans to cut down some more trees and then go back.
Jin Baiwan is a fishing expert. In just half an hour, he caught two carp, two snakeheads, one grass carp, and one bass, all of which were quite large.
He was also terribly hot.
Sweat poured down his face.
He was probably dehydrated; Ji Xinghan watched helplessly as he went from being fat to thin.
Ji Xinghan: ...
She was so curious that she couldn't help but ask, "If you eat some fish, will you become fat again?"
Jin Baiwan chuckled: "You've discovered it. This is my innate skill—..."
