Chapter 21: Rewards and Iron Crossbow Blueprints
Ji Xinghan asked in surprise, "How come you have everything?"
This guy is incredibly lucky!
Jin Baiwan was extremely smug: "That's right, I have everything, I just crave a bite of chicken! What are you going to offer in exchange?"
Ji Xinghan's eyes darted around: "A roast chicken!"
Jin Baiwan chuckled: "No way, I want three! One today, one more tomorrow night, and one more the night after tomorrow!"
Ji Xinghan: ...
On the regional channel, Ge Xiaochuan shouted: "Ji Xinghan, I have the blueprints for an iron bed. I'll replace 6 sheets of iron, 1 piece of rubber, 1 piece of glass, and 1 battery. Do you want to do it?"
Jian Lin: "Wow, impressive, Ge Xiaochuan, you're going to get all the supplies for upgrading the vehicles!"
Ge Xiaochuan said smugly, "That's right, after all, it was the big boss Ji Xinghan who collected the blueprints!"
Jin Baiwan: "Stop messing around, I've already traded roast chicken with Ji Xinghan!"
Ge Xiaochuan: "What? You traded the iron bed blueprints for roast chicken? You're not upgrading your vehicle? You're giving up?"
Jin Baiwan scoffed, "What do you know? What you eat is what you earn. Let's fill our stomachs first!"
Ge Xiaochuan was speechless: "But you weren't hungry, were you? Didn't you just trade a plate of meat dumplings with someone? Now you're trading roast chicken? You'll stuff yourself to death!"
Okay, now there's competition, we can negotiate the price!
Ji Xinghan privately messaged Jin Baiwan: "I'll give you two white-feathered chickens!"
Jin Baiwan panicked: "Huh? You've cut so many in such a short time?"
Ji Xinghan: "Is it okay? If not, I can switch with Ge Xiaochuan! After all, I have more materials, but not many whole chickens."
Without a moment's hesitation, Jin Baiwan exclaimed, "Change it! Change it! Change it!"
Ji Xinghan: ...
This guy, Jin Baiwan, would trade anything for a bite to eat!
A district with 100,000 people—you can find all sorts of people there!
She had the most dressed chickens! More than 30 of them. They couldn't stay indefinitely, and perfect timing, since Jin Baiwan liked them! She decided to keep a close eye on this person and quickly replace the dressed chickens with them!
After the transaction, Ji Xinghan obtained the blueprints for the iron bed and told Ge Xiaochuan in a private chat, "No need, I've got it!"
Ge Xiaochuan immediately realized: "Jin Baiwan?"
He didn't even wait for her reply, and yelled in the chat channel: "Jin Baiwan, why are you so greedy?"
Jin Baiwan laughed heartily: "Eating is the most important thing in life!"
Ji Xinghan obtained the blueprints for the iron bed.
Surprisingly, it's a large bed, a double bed!
Ji Xinghan was very satisfied. She loved the big bed and could roll around on it all by herself. Just thinking about it made her feel great!
Having gathered all the materials needed to make the iron bed, Ji Xinghan opened the vehicle control panel: Vehicle: Small RV
...
Preparation: None
Next level: Mid-range motorhome (insufficient conditions)
Available for preparation:
1. Bed: A place to sleep. Required materials: 20 planks, 20 sheets of iron, 1 roll of cotton cloth, 2 pieces of cotton, 1 iron bed blueprint. [Make Now]
Ji Xinghan clicked "Create Now".
With a "whoosh," the iron bed was successfully created. Please select a placement location!
Ji Xinghan looked around and saw that the RV was empty and spacious, with room to put things down as needed.
However, the RV is only 2 meters wide, so the most space-saving way is to place it horizontally. Therefore, she put the iron bed at the rear of the RV, so that it fits perfectly, with the head and foot of the bed against the left and right walls of the vehicle.
The iron bed is automatically connected to the RV.
The bed is white, with a pure white mattress on it. It's soft and looks clean and tidy.
Oh, and she also has a blanket!
Ji Xinghan immediately took out a blanket and spread it on the bed. Now she had a quilt; all she needed was a pillow!
The bed is half a meter high, and the RV is 2.8 meters high, so a person can easily stand on the bed.
There is a white sunshade curtain at the back of the RV. When you pull it open, there is a large glass window through which you can see the view behind the RV clearly.
The head and foot of the bed are against the car wall, and a little higher up, there are two more windows that can be opened or have sunshade curtains drawn, making it look like a wall.
Above you is a large skylight, so you can see a sky full of stars while lying in bed.
Ji Xinghan couldn't be happier; her choice of this spot to put the bed was absolutely perfect!
Ji Xinghan was eager to try it out on the bed, but her clothes were dirty from killing the toad, so she took two bottles of water, changed her clothes, wiped herself down, and washed her clothes.
After she finished packing, she returned to her car and went to bed!
Ji Xinghan rolled around on the bed, feeling incredibly comfortable and dispelling the fatigue of the day.
This is so awesome!
After finishing the trial, Ji Xinghan leaned against the headboard and opened the chat channel. Just then, Jian Lin sent him a private message: "Hey, how's the bed? Can I take a look? It'll give me some motivation to work harder!"
Ji Xinghan: ...
How presumptuous of me!
Jian Lin is anything but polite!
Suddenly, Jian Lin sent a video call. Ji Xinghan thought for a moment and then clicked to confirm the call.
"Hi, Ji Xinghan, hello!" a sweet voice rang out.
"What?" Ji Xinghan exclaimed in surprise.
That voice... it's so sweet, with a touch of babyishness, and a hint of affectedness.
Good heavens, this is Jian Lin!
This is Jian Lin, a lay disciple of Taoism who claims to be able to predict the future!
Even though he was in the chat channel, his voice was always a clear, bright male voice!
A bright face appeared on the large screen in front of me.
That was clearly a woman, who looked to be no more than twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. She had bright eyes and white teeth, slightly thick eyebrows that gave her a touch of heroism, and long, wavy hair that was slightly red. She looked both dashing and charming.
Ji Xinghan: ...
She was still a little slow to react!
"Hey, Ji Xinghan, were you scared? Hahaha!" Jian Lin laughed heartily.
Ji Xinghan: "You...you didn't claim to be a Taoist priest?"
Since her personal information didn't specify her gender, she always assumed Jian Lin was a man!
Jian Lin chuckled twice more: "I did it on purpose, hehe. I noticed that the personal information didn't specify the gender, so I deliberately pretended to have a male voice. The game also defaulted to using the male voice that I've always used. Hehe, this is the first time I've used my real voice since I started playing Highway Survival!"
Ji Xinghan: "You...awesome!"
Because she was on video call, Ji Xinghan deliberately got out of bed and stood against the wall, so Jian Lin couldn't see the bed. She quickly urged, "Come on, Ji Xinghan, let me see your bed!"
Ji Xinghan turned the video angle, and Jian Lin saw the bed.
"Wow!" she exclaimed, "This is amazing! Wow, what a big bed! I love it!"
Jian Lin excitedly chattered on and on: "Oh my god, it's so good! Oh my god, there are so many windows, it's exactly what I imagined! No, no, I have to work hard to save up supplies, I want to live in such a nice RV and lie on such a big bed!"
After looking at her for a while, she turned to Ji Xinghan and said, "Tsk, little sister, you're not what I imagined! You looked so cold and ruthless, I thought you were a mature and sophisticated woman!"
Ji Xinghan: ...
She knew that her appearance was deceptive!
Jian Lin leaned against the car, squinting at Ji Xinghan.
The girl on the screen had a round face, delicate features, and porcelain-white skin, like a piece of jade. She lowered her eyes, looking indifferent and aloof, exuding a coldness that kept people at a distance.
However, the moment she smiles or raises her eyes, her demeanor changes completely.
How to put it? Just by smiling, she can warm people's hearts and make them feel an irresistible sense of closeness to her.
"Tsk, smile more!" Jian Lin said.
Ji Xinghan coldly closed the video window: "Okay, I need to rest now, goodbye!"
Just now, she was just a little curious and wanted to try out what it was like to video chat with someone, which is why she agreed to Jian Lin's video request.
Another thing she wanted to know was what Jian Lin, the Taoist priest, looked like. She really wanted to see if he was wearing a Taoist robe.
The result was truly astonishing!
I admire Jian Lin; he only put on so many layers of disguise!
Ji Xinghan stretched.
Suddenly, a notification sounded: [Congratulations on upgrading your vehicle to a small RV! A temporary backpack reward has been sent to you. Please claim it as soon as possible, as it will expire in 12 hours!]
Alright, here are the game rewards!
Ji Xinghan immediately took out a set of cooking utensils, a set of various seasonings (including oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, cumin, chili, etc.), a random weapon blueprint, and a set of ordinary defense armor!
She first took out a kitchenware set, which included a wok, a frying pan, a steamer, two bowls, and two pairs of chopsticks.
Everything was clean and shiny.
Ji Xinghan was overjoyed. Great! With this, we can make chicken soup!
The seasoning set consists of eight transparent seasoning jars, about the size of canning jars, with labels labeled as follows: salt, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, vinegar, chili powder, cumin powder, black pepper, and oyster sauce.
There was also a bottle of oil, but it was about the size of a mineral water bottle.
This set is complete, but the quantity is not large.
However, if you use it sparingly, it can last a long time!
She then looked at the protective suit, which included a red and black tracksuit-style outfit, a baseball cap, and a pair of hiking boots.
[Standard Defense Set: The most basic defensive clothing. When equipped, it grants +2 to Constitution, +1 to Strength, and +1 to Agility!]
It actually increases attributes?
Ji Xinghan was very satisfied. Putting everything else aside, the quality of this garment was excellent; it was soft, thick, and resistant to dirt!
Given the current conditions, she didn't plan to wash them anymore; she simply folded them neatly and put them into the supply box.
The last item, and the one Ji Xinghan was most looking forward to, was a random weapon blueprint.
She slowly opened it:
Congratulations! You have obtained a standard iron crossbow blueprint!
[Iron Crossbow Blueprint: Unbindable, one-time use item. Can be used to craft a plain, unremarkable bow and arrow. Required materials: 30 Iron Plates, 10 Wooden Planks, 1 Animal Hide, 2 Animal Sinews, 10 Plastic, 1 Fire Crystal.]
