After dinner, the two sat on the edge of the raft, gazing at the islands not far away across the sea.
After finishing his meal, Lin Hu felt lazy and pulled out the beanbag chair, lying on it like he had no bones. The puppy also lay on Lin Hu's stomach.
Lin Hu gently stroked its back while anonymously requesting seeds on the regional channel.
Lin Hu wanted to ask in the world chat channel, but when he opened the system interface, he suddenly found that the world chat area displayed "Speed Paused".
Fortunately, there are still 90,000 people in the regional chat area. There must be quite a few with seeds, but not many can actually provide them. We can only ask around with a try-it-out mentality.
Duan Linzhou sat on a chair pulled from the dining table, drinking a glass of pear juice, glancing at the island and the trading system from time to time.
But without realizing it, he still kept most of his attention on Lin Hu.
Lin Hu has many secrets, and even though he tried his best not to ask too many questions, there was only one peach tree on the raft, but the pear juice in his hand and the many supplies that seemed to appear out of nowhere were suspicious.
He didn't even realize that Lin Hu was stupid and didn't know how to guard against people.
Or perhaps, they didn't guard against him at all.
Lin Hu had no idea what he was thinking; he was happily browsing the trading market.
His achievement was exchanging two pounds of Shine Muscat grapes and five eggs for cilantro and scallion sprouts.
Although garlic is available and a lot of garlic sprouts have been cultivated, the taste of garlic sprouts and scallions is quite different.
Lin Hu isn't in a hurry to go to the island to upgrade; he wants to try and see if he can exchange for edamame seeds.
When edamame is young, it can be stir-fried or braised. There are many ways to eat it, but these are the two most common ways.
When soybeans get old, they become soybeans, and soybeans have so many uses: soy sauce, tofu, soy milk, dried bean curd sticks, soybean oil, and so on. There are so many things that can be made from them.
Thinking of dried bean curd and edamame, Lin Hu couldn't help but swallow. When he was studying at a school in Guizhou Province, he used to love going to a braised food shop to buy Jue Wei. His favorite vegetarian dishes were these two and seaweed.
If the system hadn't warned him of danger in the sea, he would definitely have gone down to get some seaweed.
Looking at Lin Hu's expression, Duan Linzhou wondered what the other person was thinking and why he was craving it.
As darkness gradually descended, the world was plunged into gloom. The distant islands were only discernible as outlines, their interiors shrouded in darkness, as if some kind of heart-devouring darkness lurked within them.
Lin Hu went back inside, put on his coat, and came out with a small nightlight in his hand, saying to Duan Linzhou, "I'll go take a look first."
"Okay, be careful."
Duan Linzhou knew that the other party's ability was suitable for reconnaissance, so he didn't say anything unnecessary and nodded to signal the other party to be careful.
"good."
Lin Hu responded, turned on the night light, and flew off the raft toward the island.
Duan Linzhou watched as the figure enveloped in warm light slowly disappeared into the distance, eventually becoming an indistinct ray of light.
Lin Hu didn't dare to descend, and hovered in the air to observe the strange phenomena on the island.
There were a few mutated beasts scattered along the beach. They were wary of the sea surface, yet they kept getting closer and closer, occasionally slapping the water with their claws.
At first, Lin Hu didn't understand their behavior until a mutated jackal slapped at something for a while, then lowered its head and bit down on something before stopping.
The distance was a bit far and the visibility was poor at night, so Lin Hu couldn't see what was in its mouth very clearly. However, judging from the way the jackal was holding and tearing at the thing, it must have been a sea creature that was feeding.
Lin Hu did not disturb it, and quietly flew towards the river that Duan Linzhou had gone to during the day.
Even before getting close to Linhu Lake, you can see all sorts of mutated beasts drinking water by the river.
Occasionally, hostile mutated beasts would fight each other. Lin Hu confirmed that most of them were level one or two mutated beasts, with one or two level three mixed in, and then quietly left.
"How about it?"
Lin Hu had just returned to the raft, his feet not even touching the ground, when Duan Linzhou asked the question first.
"The number is not large, most of them are level one or two mutant beasts, and I only saw three or four level three ones."
As Lin Hu spoke, he walked over to Duan Linzhou, who was sitting on a beanbag chair holding a puppy. Lin Hu squeezed in next to him without ceremony and reached out to take the puppy back.
The puppy, having spent a day and a night together, had become familiar with the two of them, and Lin Hu was no longer trembling when he held it, though it still whimpered occasionally.
However, with its tail wagging, it was clear that the whimpering was a sign of happiness.
"Shall we set off now?" Duan Linzhou asked.
“Okay, let me take it back inside.” Lin Hu said, gesturing to the puppy in his arms. Before Duan Linzhou could respond, Lin Hu picked it up and went back inside.
[1097: Host, I suggest you upgrade your island first~]
[Lin Hu: Why?]
Although Lin Hu asked this question aloud, he knew in his heart that if 1097 took the initiative to remind him, it would generally be beneficial in every way.
[1097: They won't hurt you. You'll see when you upgrade.]
As 1097 spoke, a light screen popped up and left a wink emoji on it.
Lin Hu took the puppy out and handed it to Duan Linzhou, saying he had something to do and would go later, before hiding in the toilet.
A secluded paradise
Lin Hu stared wide-eyed at the changes to the island after the upgrade.
Three more large mountains have appeared on the island, each with the same large warehouses underneath. Halfway up Hot Spring Mountain, a large cave entrance measuring 2x5 meters has been added. The words "Hot Spring Resort" are carved in large characters on the stone above the cave entrance.
What surprised Lin Hu even more was that on the 1097 system, there was a new seed shop in the mall interface, where any seed could be exchanged for using crystal cores.
