Chapter 38: Desert Survival Day 7 (4) Even Greater Cyberbullying…
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I also did the work for your other three classmates for free. Should I charge them a fee as well?"
"Is Lulu here? I understand. Sister Miaomiao, can I trade you a bottle of snake and insect repellent for a bucket of well water?"
Yu Miaomiao searched for the recipe for mosquito repellent on Ziren's OEM post. One bottle required 2 mucus, 1 sulfur ore, 0.5 mineral water, and 2 fresh baba leaves, so she felt that just one bucket of well water was not enough.
But do you want to be a pushover in the last days?
"Meow Meow is not short of water: You can give me a discount, but there's no need to give it away for free. Even if you let me pluck you, I'll catch you alone and pluck you out. Aren't you afraid that I'll pluck you bald?"
Being nice to people who are worthy does not mean being a pushover in Miaomiao's opinion.
In Yu Miaomiao's eyes, Lulu would put aside her own injuries to help her make a medical kit first, and would give her priority in everything. She would really repay a favor with a thousand times the gratitude. Even if she seemed a little stubborn, she was a very kind and worthy person.
"Is Lulu here? It's okay. I have lots of hair, so you can pull it out as much as you want. Sister Miaomiao, can I have five buckets of well water? But it's not a one-time payment. I want to ask you every few days."
"Meow Meow: Sure, I'll give you today's water after A-Pi finishes it."
After sending this message, Lulu sent Yu Miaomiao a trade request, which was an item with a small glassware pattern - snake and insect repellent potion.
"Is Lulu here? Okay, do you need any medical supplies today?"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I want to wait and see what comes out at noon today."
"Is Lulu here?: Oh, it's almost 12 noon. Feel free to contact me if you need anything."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: OK."
It is now half past eleven, and there is still half an hour. Yu Miaomiao plans to make two more sets of arrows to leave more time to take orders in the afternoon.
After finishing a set of arrows, I heard the message reminder sound.
"Hua Bie: Sorry, I was in battle just now and didn't have time to reply to your message. Would you mind giving me the two spears now?"
"Meow Meow is not short of water: OK."
After Yu Miaomiao traded the spear, he thought about it and sent a greeting.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Are you okay? Are you not hurt?"
"Hua Bie: Thank you for your concern. Are you planning to give me some free bandages or something?"
She knew from every word he said that she meant this. Seeing that he was still in the mood to joke, Yu Miaomiao guessed that he must be fine, so she politely replied with a little silence, "Take care."
"Huabie: Well, I will take good care of your things."
She thought it was an unnecessary question. No matter how she looked at this sentence, she felt it was strange. She quickly closed the temporary dialog box and waited for today's card draw.
【System prompt: Please draw your gift pack card】
As the system prompt sounded, the familiar card screen appeared again in the front field of vision.
The first card glowed with a royal blue light, and Yu Miaomiao recognized it as the treasure card at a glance. After lightly touching it with her fingertips and turning it over, she found the familiar instructions.
Royal Blue Flash Card: "Gemstones are treasures that have been deposited for thousands of years. This card is a treasure card and must be opened at a designated location."
The second card was shining with gold, and it should be the potential card that he was familiar with.
Could it be that today's card drawing will be the same as the first day, with the familiar formula and familiar cards?
She couldn't help but shift her gaze to the third picture.
The third card was different from the last orange card. It glowed with a faint green light, which looked particularly different under the glaring sunlight.
Since she already knew what the second card was, she flipped over the third one and saw the words, "Transportation is an indispensable part of human life. Do you also desire to have your own vehicle? Choosing a vehicle card can shorten the distance between players and greatly facilitate your life."
Yu Miaomiao was silent. The vehicle card was indeed a good thing.
Whether it's ordering directly usable means of transportation, such as cars, horses, or even other bizarre vehicles, or ordering blueprints for making vehicles, it allows her to go beyond a mile radius.
If the water resources are used up, she can explore nearby water resources while walking and then resettle.
When a monster comes, if the vehicle is faster, it may be able to run away directly without having to fight it head-on.
But she will use a vehicle card, and others may also use it. According to the instructions on the card, this will indeed quickly shorten the distance between survivors.
But is it good or bad to shorten the distance between people?
People who know each other can get together to survive and fight the enemy together. Those who have bad intentions or grudges may use vehicles to go to other people's territory and do some harmful things. I hope all this is just her unnecessary worry.
The system started to count down, and Yu Miaomiao had been thinking for almost five minutes without realizing it.
Turning over the second card, it still read: "You wouldn't have thought it would be this way, would you? I'm a seemingly ordinary card, but I actually hold immense potential. Choosing this card will prevent you from drawing cards for two days. On the third day, you'll automatically receive the two cards mentioned above."
Two types of cards were also drawn by it, with small orange and green cards displayed below.
She currently has enough supplies, having obtained these things on the third day, which was the ninth day since she came here.
Yu Miaomiao has already gambled once today. If she can get good supplies by betting on flowers, she might as well gamble again. She wants both the first and third cards.
The degree of glow of the card can reveal the quality of the contents, and the treasure card and vehicle card are a perfect match. She doesn't know when she will get these two cards next time.
After figuring it out, Yu Miaomiao chose the potential card without hesitation.
On a day when she didn't get any supplies, Yu Miaomiao felt an indescribable sense of loss.
This system is so bad that it has turned card drawing into something that these survivors are extremely dependent on. When will this kind of life end?
On the world channel, people keep posting about the supplies they obtained today, some are good, some are bad.
But Pippi still had no water. At this time, Yu Miaomiao was reading the message sent by Pippi.
"Is Pipi here? Sister Miaomiao, wuwuwu, I didn't get any water, but a bunch of ore. Are they trying to make me eat rocks? What a broken system (whispering quietly, if you get something good tomorrow, just ignore what I said)."
Looking at the slightly lively words sent out by Pipi, Yu Miaomiao thought that if one day she could get closer to other survivors, she could hardly imagine how cute and interesting the girl on the other side would be.
"Meow Meow is not short of water: I also plan to make a filter. If it is done, I will tell you that you can exchange filtered water with me."
"Is Pipi here? Hey, Sister Miaomiao, didn't you get any water today? I thought you lived up to your name and never lacked water."
"Meow Meow is not short of water: Well, are there any new orders?"
"Is Pipi here? I'm still negotiating. I'll tell you when I'm done. I'll give you the empty bucket first."
After the transaction was completed, Yu Miaomiao scanned her backpack. Although she already had 5 bandages and 2 primary medical kits, she still planned to ask Lulu to make some more just in case.
"Miaomiao is not short of water: Lulu, I want you to make four bandages. The commission is a bucket of well water and a bottle of mineral water. Is that okay? I'm not in a rush, just give it to me before tonight."
While asking, she walked to the well and scooped up a bucket of water with great effort.
The sun was getting hotter and hotter, and she could feel every inch of her skin exposed to the sun was burning.
"Is Lulu here? Of course you can."
After the two of them finished the transaction, she had no linen left. Yu Miaomiao waited for a long time but did not receive any work order from Pipi, so she decided to ask Ziren to make a set of animal skirts for her.
But before she could open the forum, she saw dozens of messages around the world that shocked her.
"Ahhh: You Lulu, are you here? Get out here right now! Our boss asked you to make a basic medical package, but you're still refusing. Do you really want to die?"
Isn't this person the one who was involved in the OEM business with Ruoxue back then? Why did he start scolding Lulu today? Is it because of something that happened during the OEM process again?
Immediately after the words "Ahhh", people kept coming out to curse, and Yu Miaomiao hurried to see what was happening.
"I think it's okay. We're already giving you face by asking you to make a medical kit for our boss. You actually dare to refuse. Don't you take our Tiandihui seriously?"
"Period: President Yang works so hard every day collecting useful information about the apocalypse, yet some people are so ungrateful that they even dare to say they'll do President Yang's work later. I wonder if anyone has a higher priority than our President Yang."
"Not Short of Money: Yeah, you bastard Lulu, hurry up and send out the name of the person you want to do the OEM for. I want to see who can get priority over our Brother Yang."
"Hurry up! If it weren't for the fact that Lulu is still somewhat useful and can be used as a medical device, I would have wanted to kill her straight away. Just looking at those classmates makes me angry."
"Ahhh: Who said it wasn't? They talk so high and mighty, yet they still communicate in bird language right in front of us. What a bunch of powerless and useless students."
Didn't Pipi say that the rest of her classmates had joined the Tiandihui? So this is how they were despised and insulted after joining. Yu Miaomiao didn't see any of those classmates who were in the "are there or not" format come out to speak.
This time the scolding was much harsher than last time. Yu Miaomiao felt a little angry when she heard them say that.
"Hurry up: Don't mention this. Big Brother is already a little upset. Lulu, don't be so shameless and ignore our private messages. We just want to know who is more important than our President Yang. Just give us a name, and we won't blame you for your rudeness this time."
After hearing what these people said, Yu Miaomiao probably had guessed the ins and outs of the matter.
She opened Yang Haotian's popular science post in the forum, which did not record what had just happened. Then she quickly browsed through the hundreds of lines of world chat and found that the statements of hundreds of people were very similar.
They first accused Lulu of delaying the preparation of the primary medical kit, then scolded her for being ungrateful and daring to use the excuse of helping others make bandages first, and then asked Lulu to name the so-called "more important" person. Finally, they all agreed that as long as Lulu told them the nickname of that person, everyone would forgive her, otherwise don't blame them for being rude.
From the beginning to the end, Yu Miaomiao never heard Lulu say a word. It was all their gossip. The President Yang they mentioned never showed up. It was like a black hand hidden in the dark, silently manipulating public opinion and this cyberbullying.
