Chapter 24 Desert Survival Day 5 (5) Making a Poison Bow...
When making the last set of arrows, Yu Miaomiao finally got lucky and got two extra ones, saving a lot of materials. She happily exchanged with the other party and received a frozen organ at the same time.
To improve survivability at night, in addition to medical supplies, more weapons reserves are also needed.
Yu Miaomiao obtained poison glands from three wolves, and she wanted to make a poison arrow bow.
When she found the 'Technology' column, she heard the sound of incoming messages again.
"Is Lulu there? Sorry, I was delayed by my brother and didn't get a chance to reply. To make a bandage, you need 1 piece of linen and 2 pieces of slime."
"Meow Meow: You didn't give him the wolf meat I gave you, did you?"
Yu Miaomiao shouldn't have been nosy, but she couldn't help but ask.
"Is Lulu here? No, I won't give you what I promised you. I don't have any linen yet, but Ziren seems to be able to make it. I'll ask for you."
"Meow Meow: No need, I'll go find him. I happen to have other OEM needs."
"Is Lulu here? Okay, I'll continue digging."
Yu Miaomiao and Ziren had never chatted before, so this time she found him under his post and chatted with him privately.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Hello, do you have any new crafts to make today?"
Perhaps because she heard from Hua Bie that they were a group of international students, Yu Miaomiao subconsciously greeted them in English.
"Is Ziren here? [Simple Fence], [Intermediate Trap], Grinder, [Meat Cleaver] and Small Dew Collector, [Linen], Animal Skirt, Cloth Shirt, Cloth Pants, [Water Bucket], and you?"
【Name: Simple Fence (100/100)
Level: 5
Introduction: Wild animals will go around the fence when they see it, but if there is a human standing inside, it is only a matter of time before they break through the fence.
Attribute: Beast resistance 150 points]
The intermediate trap has a higher probability of capturing passing beasts, while the meat cleaver can be used to manually dismember the beast to obtain more meat. They both look like good things, and Yu Miaomiao is a little tempted.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I have learned how to boil a kettle and make a condensing standing fan. I would like you to make some simple fences, intermediate traps, and linen. Can you do that? The fee is 5 pieces of chicken or 5 pieces of wolf meat."
"Is Ziren here? Okay, how come you have so much meat? Did you encounter a lot of monsters last night?"
Yu Miaomiao had already told Pippi about this matter, and thinking that it was not something worth hiding, she told it frankly.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Yes, so I'm afraid of encountering more monsters, so I want to build more protective facilities. What materials are needed for these? I may not have them yet."
"Is Ziren here? We already have these ready-made. I can give them to you directly. If possible, you can exchange them for food, preferably water. The more the better."
Why is it that the further you go in the game, the less water and food you get? Does the system want the survivors to find ways to obtain survival resources on their own?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: What's wrong with you guys? You weren't so short of water a few days ago."
"Is Ziren here? We were short of them before, and we're probably even short of them now. There's something A-Pi probably hasn't told you: our cooperation may have to change."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: What's wrong?"
"Is Ziren here? Last time, because of Ruoxue's incident, we had an argument with others, which made outsiders have opinions about us students. The other students felt that we were not only not doing our job properly, but also meddling in other people's business. They didn't give me the drawings today, so the cooperation is probably going to be cancelled. I guess the commissions we get from the contract work will get less and less in the future."
Yu Miaomiao had seen the post about them taking on OEM work, and they had clearly responded in a timely manner. Why did their classmates think that Ziren was not doing the OEM work well? She thought about it and realized that this was a private matter between their classmates, so she didn't dare to ask too much.
"Meow Meow: Do you still want to continue the cooperation?"
"Is Ziren here? Of course I do. Only when the business grows and the brand is established will more people trust it, and the OEM fees will be higher. Otherwise, if you only produce a few items each time, the back and forth disputes will be troublesome enough, and you might even run into scammers."
Yu Miaomiao didn't expect that in the end times, Ziren would still think of the brand effect, but she didn't understand what Ziren meant. On the one hand, he said that the cooperation was good, but on the other hand, he said that the cooperation was difficult to continue.
"Meow Meow: Then will the cooperation continue, or is it difficult to help me collect the materials for the first item, so we simply terminate the cooperation?"
"Is Ziren here? It's not like that. It's not that we didn't think about helping you get the reinforcement materials for your cabin. It's just that every time we negotiated the contract, it was with different classmates. One of them was unwilling to give it, and the other insisted on having it. Api talked to them about it several times, but was always scolded."
Yu Miaomiao had been wondering before, since there were 28 classmates in their group and the materials they outsourced were so scattered and in small quantities, would there be a possibility of uneven distribution? Sure enough, it had already appeared, but what she didn't expect was that Api was looked down upon by his classmates because of this.
She looked at the time. It was two o'clock in the afternoon. The most important thing now was to make the survival supplies.
"Meow Meow: It's okay, our cooperation can continue. Also, can I exchange a simple fence, an intermediate trap, a meat cleaver, 5 pieces of linen, and a bucket for 5 bottles of water and 5 pieces of wolf meat or chicken?"
"Is Ziren here? Sister, this is amazing! We didn't get any water today and we're all so thirsty now. Now that we have the water you gave us, those classmates who said they wouldn't cooperate with you are so envious. I've said before that Ah Pi has good taste. She really follows the right people and does the right things."
"Is Ziren here? By the way, Sister Miaomiao, can we have chicken as meat? I don't dare eat wolf meat."
She? Ah Pi turned out to be a girl. Yu Miaomiao had always thought that Pi Pi was a boy. After all, she had never expected that the one who started digging the ground as soon as she arrived in the apocalypse would be a girl.
And Pippi doesn't just dig for one day, he digs almost every day, and what he digs is not just soil, but also stone mines. How much arm strength does that require?
"Meow Meow: Let's trade first. I might ask you to do some work for me later."
Yu Miaomiao wanted to see what the intermediate traps and fences looked like. If they were good, she might ask Ziren to make a few more.
The intermediate trap is about the same size as the primary trap, except that it has some more spring components and the splints are made of sharper iron spikes. Yu Miaomiao plans to see how effective it is tonight.
After the fence is laid out, it is a square fence with four sides. The fence is covered with barbs. There is a handle on the fence that can open and close one side of the fence. I don’t know what the effect will be yet.
After receiving the goods, she hurriedly found Lulu and asked her to help produce five bandages.
While waiting, Yu Miaomiao was not idle. He reopened the workbench, found the poison arrow bow and started making it.
After whittling the wood into the shape shown in the example, soften it by heating it on a workbench heater.
After fixing both ends of the bow and arrow on the splint, slowly bend it into the shape of a bow according to the angle shown in the picture.
A small bowl appeared on the workbench, indicating that Yu Miaomiao should put the venom gland into it, crush it into a thick dark green liquid, and then put two polished flat stones into it to soak.
Follow the instructions to roll the fibers into long bowstrings, and cut the remaining wood into thin strips.
According to the diagram, Yu Miaomiao should have fixed the stone slab on the bow handle. Just as she was about to operate it with her hands, a big red cross appeared in front of her, and then replayed the step she missed, which was that she forgot to wear a glove.
The process of putting on gloves happened in a flash and she didn't notice it. Fortunately, the system reminded her, otherwise she was not sure whether she would be poisoned if she touched the venom gland with her bare hands.
After tying the stone slab to the bow handle, the bowstring is fixed and a poison bow is ready.
It took more than forty minutes. Yu Miaomiao guessed that if she was skilled at making a poison bow, it would take her at least half an hour.
Because she was so engrossed in what she was doing, she ignored the message sound and only saw the message after opening the temporary dialog box.
"Is Lulu here? Sister Meow Meow, the bandages are ready. I'll trade them to you."
"Is Lulu here? Sister Miaomiao, I dug up some more sand. I'll give it all to you."
Yu Miaomiao knew that the other party was so enthusiastic and attentive because she had provided precious water resources in the past, but for some reason, she suddenly felt sorry for the girl.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Don't you need sand? It can be mixed with slime to make clay, or it can be made into glass."
"Is Lulu here? Well, I know. I don't have any use for the clay right now. If you need it, I'll give it to you first."
At this stage, Yu Miaomiao doesn’t have any items that require sand and clay, but she still subconsciously suggested the exchange.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I will exchange my water for your sand."
"Is Lulu here? Really? My brother just asked me for water again, so I can give it to him."
Yu Miaomiao was speechless for a moment. She regretted making this exchange request, but the words had already been spoken, so she thought to herself that she should not meddle in other people's business next time.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: How much sand do you have now?"
"Is Lulu here? I dug up 4 sand piles today, which is 400 pieces of high-quality sand."
Did you dig up so much in just one day?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Is the sand starting to become more and more today?"
"Is Lulu here? Yes, I'm here. I'll go ask about the situation with my classmates."
Yu Miaomiao didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but what she stepped on the ground was no longer a small piece of gravel, but a lot of fine sand with a rustling sound.
She tried to collect it with her space backpack, but found it was useless.
I've been so busy that my stomach is rumbling with hunger and my stamina has dropped to 25.
There was ready-made chicken cold noodles in her backpack, and she took out a portion directly.
A plate of cold noodles appeared in my hand. The bottom of the bowl was still a little cold when I touched it, and it looked very delicious.
Putting the plate on the stool, Yu Miaomiao sat down on the mat. If you got close, you could smell the pungent aroma.
Use the chopsticks provided with the system to mix the shredded chicken and noodles evenly. Pick up a piece and take a bite. The slightly spicy flavor of Sichuan pepper mixed with the aroma of sesame oil is very appetizing.
The cool and refreshing cold noodles paired with juicy shredded chicken were smooth and chewy, perfect for eating on such a hot day. Yu Miaomiao finished the whole bowl in just two bites.
After taking a look at the personal panel, I found that the level 4 shredded chicken cold noodles not only restored all my physical strength, but also increased my total physical strength by 1 point.
Yu Miaomiao did not press Lulu, but continued to prepare the battle supplies for the evening.
The way to kill a wild beast is to use a sharp weapon to directly pierce the hard part on the beast's weak point.
A bow and arrow alone is indeed effective, but it requires a lot of strength. Using a Swiss Army knife requires less effort, but the handle is short and it is dangerous to hold the knife.
Among the weapon crafts she had learned, there was one weapon that she had always forgotten, the spear!
