Volcano Season: 74 Days
Lin Qi: "Do you want to exchange Desert Rose Stone with me?"
The man: "Yes, I need Desert Rose Stone here. I have everything you want."
Yun Mianmian: "What do you have here that I can exchange?"
Yun Mianmian did not expose the fact that they did not have enough Desert Rose Stone, but asked to see the product first.
The man did not mind and directly opened the panel: "Then you can take a look."
A light curtain appeared in the air.

……]
There are a lot of good things, most of which Yun Mianmian and his friends already have.
But for ordinary players, Desert Rose Stone can be used to exchange for survival supplies, which is life-saving.
After all, Rose Stone cannot be eaten, and water and food are more important.
Yun Mianmian is interested in the Phoebe map and the Sand Pit Map.
There are also Phoebe in the desert.
Speaking of Phoebe, Yun Mianmian decided to look for it in the oasis to see if he can find it.
After all, there are a lot of trees here. If there are no trees in the oasis, it is estimated that the places where Phoebe is distributed will be even more difficult to find.
There is also a map of the distribution of fishing pits. Yun Mianmian suddenly thought that after coming to the desert, she had not fished for treasure chests. Players had never thought about fishing for treasure chests in the desert. Maybe it is not that you cannot fish, but you have to fish in a specific place.
This fishing pit may be the place to fish for treasure chests.
Yun Mianmian brought a fishing rod, but she just put it in the box and never took it out.
When she found the oasis, she also tried to fish for treasure chests in lakes and rivers, but she caught nothing.
As long as she finds the fishing pit, she can verify her guess.
It would be great if you can fish for treasure chests in the desert.
Unfortunately, all these maps require 50 Desert Rose Stones to exchange, and they only have a few Desert Rose Stones on hand. It seems that they must find enough Desert Rose Stones today.
At least one map should be exchanged.
It would be best if one could collect 100 Desert Rose Stones to exchange for two items.
Three days have passed.
So far, Yun Mianmian's harvest is only average and has not met her expectations.
In addition to more than a thousand iron ores, there is nothing else.
And it is because of double luck that there are so many.
Lin Qi: "I guess this contact card can be used to contact any player."
Zhao Yichen: "Ten rose stones for one card, there is no point, not in the same zone, it is useless to contact."
Lin Qi: "Then do you think this signal gun is what I think?"
Zhao Yichen: "You mean... a signal gun that can be airdropped? The problem is that twenty rose stones are exchanged for a signal gun. Even if there is an airdrop, I don't know what is inside, and it will attract competition from other players."
Yun Mianmian thought, what if the airdrop box contains the map she wants?
Fortune and wealth are sought in danger.
If you can exchange twenty rose stones for something worth fifty rose stones, this transaction will be a big profit.
If you are lucky, you can give it a try.
Yun Mianmian's luck today was that her wish came true.
What if she really got something good in the airdrop box?
Yun Mianmian whispered to them, "Let's go find the Desert Rose Stone first, and then we'll talk about it when we exchange it."
However, the man in white was not there when she came last night. Yun Mianmian asked him, "Hello, what time are you usually here?"
The man said, "I'm always here, but I go to bed after 8 o'clock in the evening. Don't disturb me after I go to bed, or I'll get angry."
Yun Mianmian and the others nodded and promised not to go after 8 o'clock.
The man looked at them and became a little impatient, "Do you want to exchange something? If not, I'm leaving."
Yun Mianmian said, "We haven't decided what to exchange yet, we'll come back later."
The man frowned and left unhappily.
——Yun
Mianmian first released the pterosaur and let it fly straight to the west to explore the way ahead.
Soon it discovered the pyramid, and then flew back to tell Yun Mianmian.
With the pterosaur leading the way, the three found the pyramid very easily.
The pyramid looked very spectacular. It was built with huge stones, like a huge monster, looking down at them.
They stood at the foot of the pyramid and admired it for a while. Yun Mianmian suggested: "Do you want to go in and take a look? Maybe there will be supplies inside." Lin
Qi: "Sure." Zhao
Yichen: "Then let's go, let's go in and take a look."
As a result, as soon as they approached the entrance of the pyramid, a vulture swooped down from the sky, obviously coming for Yun Mianmian and the others.
As if it was guarding this place.
This way, Yun Mianmian was even more certain that there was something good inside.
Yun Mianmian quickly raised the God's Arm Bow, and it took only three seconds for the arrow to fly out and shoot straight into the body of the vulture.
The power of the God's Arm Bow was amazing, and coupled with the great force of the vulture's dive, the arrow actually went through its body.
The moment the vulture fell to the ground, blood flowed out, and it was already dead.
Yun Mianmian walked forward and directly collected 30 vulture meat, 2 feathers, and 2 desert rose stones.
"It's still possible! Killing a vulture will get you a desert rose stone."
Yun Mianmian immediately raised his head and looked for traces of the vulture.
He saw another one.
Yun Mianmian's eyes lit up.
It was the right decision for her to bring the God's Arm Bow.
Vulture meat is not delicious, but it is enough to kill it to get the Desert Rose Stone.
The other two people did not have long-range attack weapons, so they could only watch Yun Mianmian shooting arrows.
There were still six vultures in the sky. Yun Mianmian fired six arrows in a row, only one of which missed, and the other five arrows all hit the target.
In total, ten Desert Rose Stones and a lot of vulture meat were obtained.
There was no place to put the vulture meat, and Yun Mianmian wanted to throw it away.
But Lin Qi squeezed out a grid and said to put it with him.
The feathers did not take up space, so they were put directly in Zhao Yichen's backpack.
After dealing with the vultures, the three walked into the pyramid.
It was actually empty inside.
I thought there would be a complicated secret passage, and mummies would be buried deep in the secret passage.
In the end, I only found a box.
Lin Qi: "This is actually a treasure chest."
Zhao Yichen: "Among the three of us, Yun Mianmian should have the highest luck value, so let Yun Mianmian open it. How about we divide the things we open equally?"
Lin Qi: "I have no objection."
Yun Mianmian: "Okay, I'll open it."
She had the good luck buff of making her wishes come true today, and she also wanted to open it herself, and Zhao Yichen happened to say it.
Before opening the box, Yun Mianmian made a wish in her heart: it would be best if there were a few maps, or more desert rose stones.
[Open the golden treasure chest]
[Obtained 10 golden nanmu, 6 desert rose stones, 3 apples, 3 sun-drying repair cream, 1 watermelon, and 1 fried chicken leg]
There were quite a lot of supplies, and they were all useful.
After the three of them discussed, they divided the things inside.
Two pieces of desert rose stone each, one apple and one repair cream each, everyone shared the watermelon, and the fried chicken leg was given to Yun Mianmian.
As for golden nanmu, Lin Qi and Zhao Yichen took three, and Yun Mianmian took one more.
Seeing that Yun Mianmian had taken advantage, Yun Mianmian said that she would take one less thing from the treasure chest next time.
The two boys didn't care.
After coming out of the pyramid, the three continued on their way.
Try to find more desert rose stones before noon.
Because they knew there would be a swarm of snakes, they took their weapons in hand in advance.
Yun Mianmian also put away her divine arm bow and only held the horizontal sword.
The divine arm bow is useless against snakes.
If she had known that she would encounter snakes, Yun Mianmian would have brought some sulfur ore.
There was a lot of sulfur ore in her backpack, which was most useful against snakes.
Unfortunately, nothing is known in advance.
She couldn't stuff everything into the box.
After passing the pyramid, everyone slowed down.
Some snakes are similar in color to the yellow sand. Snakes are animals that are very good at hiding. They may hide in the sand, motionless, and when people get close, they suddenly attack, catching people off guard.
Everyone was on guard, not daring to blink, and carefully observing the road under their feet.
At this time, the temperature was gradually rising, and the sun was becoming more and more scorching.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on Yun Mianmian's forehead. She held the crossbow tightly in her right hand, narrowed her eyes slightly, and stared at the sand not far away with full concentration, and then stopped.
"I saw a snake."
Lin Qi and Zhao Yichen paused.
"Where?"
"Where?"
Yun Mianmian pointed to a place not far away.
Next to a few gray-brown saxaul trees, there was a winding snake lying on the sand. It raised its head and slowly spit out its tongue.
Yun Mianmian recognized that it was a cobra, which was not small in size, estimated to be about 1.5 meters long.
Cobras are resistant to high temperatures and like to live in the desert, so it is not surprising to see it here.
It is very aggressive. Once it feels threatened, it will spray venom. Its venom is powerful enough to be fatal.
If the nearby snake group is a group of cobras, it will be a bit tricky.
Zhao Yichen and Lin Qi breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that there was only one snake. The two of them approached the snake from both sides in a way of surrounding it without changing their expressions.
"Stand here and don't move. We will deal with it."
Yun Mianmian: "Okay."
Zhao Yichen and Lin Qi were seen holding long swords and slowly approaching the cobra.
The cobra's intuition is very sensitive. It seems to sense danger.
It suddenly raised the front end of its body, puffed up its neck, and made a "whooshing" sound of intimidation.
The pattern on this cobra was relatively dim, but when it stood up, the circles on its back became much more obvious.
Zhao Yichen was responsible for attracting its attention, while Lin Qi took up the sword and went behind it.
Zhao Yichen and Lin Qi worked well together. With a glance, he first stretched out his sword tentatively to provoke the snake, and then let Lin Qi take action.
In just a few seconds, the snake was stabbed by Lin Qi's sword, and Zhao Yichen was also quick to cut off the snake's head with a sword.
The snake was so big, so they harvested 8 snake meats, 1 snake gallbladder, and 1 desert rose stone.
Everyone wanted the desert rose stone, but they would not quarrel over a stone. The first one was given to Zhao Yichen, and the next one was given to Lin Qi.
As for the snake meat and snake gall, they were temporarily placed in Zhao Yichen's backpack, where there was still space.
The backpacks of the three people were already full and could not be stuffed with anything else. They couldn't help but sigh, when can they unlock the backpacks.
Yun Mianmian: "Keep looking forward. I found a snake. I guess the snake group is not far away."
Lin Qi: "The sun is already very hot now. It will probably be even hotter in a while."
Zhao Yichen: "There is no way. There is no shelter here unless we go back to the pyramid."
But it is impossible to turn back now. The desert rose stone has not been found yet.
Yun Mianmian sighed, "Drink some water, take a rest, and wait until we find the rose stone."
They can't stand it, and other players can't stand it even more.
It seems that the temperature is getting higher and higher. It wasn't so hot when I first came to the desert. It's really too hot today.
Many players have serious heat stroke. Some people have been eliminated since yesterday.
The number of eliminations is still increasing today.
Lack of water and food is no longer the biggest problem. Heatstroke is the biggest difficulty faced by all players.
Most players did not find the oasis. After walking for two days, they found nothing. They relied on willpower to survive in the desert.
Players with poor physical fitness would have collapsed long ago.
Yun Mianmian looked at her personal information.
Her spirit value kept dropping.
Even though she drank water, it didn't recover much.
She took out some of the remaining food she made yesterday from her backpack and ate two bites. Only then did she feel a little better.
After eating, she shared the food with Lin Qi and Zhao Yichen.
Yun Mianmian: "Eat something, you will feel better."
The three of them rested for a while and continued to move forward.
Soon, they saw a field of saxaul in the distance.
Haloxylon ammodendron is a kind of shrub that can resist drought and heat, has strong adaptability, and is a sand-fixing plant. If the backpack had not been locked, Yun Mianmian would have picked some and put them in the backpack.
Because the material of Haloxylon ammodendron is very suitable for use as fuel, it has extremely strong firepower, and there is little smoke when it burns, it is called "sand coal".
It is also the host of Cistanche deserticola, which is also called desert ginseng and is a rare Chinese medicinal material.
So if you dig these Haloxylon ammodendrons, you may find Cistanche deserticola.
But at the moment, they don't plan to do so.
Digging Haloxylon ammodendron takes a lot of physical strength. They are not in a good condition now. They just want to find the desert rose stone as soon as possible and leave here.
However, surprisingly, the group of cobras are hiding under this Haloxylon ammodendron.
Yun Mianmian and others have not approached yet.
Then she saw several cobras sticking their heads out from the bushes.
They were swaying wildly, their heads were big, their necks were puffed up, and they were making sounds and spitting out their tongues, which was chilling.
"Found it."
Seeing the group of cobras, Yun Mianmian felt mixed emotions.
As long as she got rid of these snakes, she could get the Desert Rose Stone.
Yun Mianmian's brain was working quickly, thinking about how to kill them all. She
might not have had an idea before, but when she saw so many Haloxylon ammodendrons, she suddenly had an idea.
Haloxylon ammodendron is a good fuel, and these snakes are all staying in the Haloxylon ammodendrons, so why not just set them on fire.
Most snakes have poor eyesight, and they attack their prey by relying on heat sensation and smell. Once they encounter high temperatures, they will feel pain or even be unable to move.
As long as they have difficulty in moving, they will be at the mercy of others.
Yun Mianmian has oil in her backpack.
As long as the flammable properties of oil and saxaul are used, they can be quickly ignited.
Yun Mianmian told Lin Qi and Zhao Yichen about her method.
It is easy to say, but difficult to do.
For example, the snakes are in the saxaul, and if you get close, you will be attacked by the snakes. How to pour oil on them? After pouring it, the snakes may disperse.
The three discussed it and decided to divide the work among themselves.
Zhao Yichen went over to restrain the snakes and attract their attention. Lin Qi helped Zhao Yichen while pouring oil on the saxaul. Yun Mianmian poured oil on the saxaul and circled the snakes.
Then use a bow and arrow to ignite the fire. Shoot an arrow and ignite the fire.
Although this method is not foolproof, it is feasible.
It's just that it is very dangerous to put it into practice.
Zhao Yichen is likely to get injured if he wants to control so many snakes, and Yun Mianmian should also pay attention from a distance. If she sees a snake attacking him, she can also help him with a bow and arrow.
The three of them were very nervous.
If bitten, the poison will take effect quickly.
However, Yun Mianmian has a Qingxin Pill that can eliminate 90% of the negative effects on the body. This is what she uses to save her life.
If one of them is bitten, she will take out the Qingxin Pill.
Do it as soon as you say it, now is the hottest time of the day.
You must fight quickly and decisively.
Zhao Yichen went deep into the snake group, and the group of cobras all stared at him hungrily.
He did not attack. After all, his job was just to divert their attention. It was best to stabilize these snakes.
Lin Qi walked to the side. He was holding a bucket of oil. Just as he was about to pour it out, a cobra quickly jumped up and bit him. Lin Qi held the oil in one hand and chopped it down with the sword in the other. He did not hit the snake's vital point, but only chopped it down from the middle. The snake's upper body twitched twice and then died.
The other snakes were enraged by this and all rushed towards Lin Qi.
Lin Qi frowned and randomly sprinkled the oil on the sand, and some of it did not fall on the saxaul.
Only a small part of it fell on the Haloxylon ammodendron.
Zhao Yichen came over to help, and they hacked and chopped at random, the sword light was blinding, and before long, there were snake carcasses all under their feet.
But there were too many snakes, and they couldn't chop them all.
Yun Mianmian was ready, and shot a burning arrow directly at the Haloxylon ammodendron branch that was covered with oil.
The fire burned fiercely.
Under the firelight, the snakes panicked and ran around everywhere.
Although only a part of the Haloxylon ammodendron had oil on it, the Haloxylon ammodendron was flammable, and soon all of them burned.
The snakes wanted to escape, but Yun Mianmian had already ignited the circle of oil, and a circle of fire trapped them inside.
Snakes are afraid of fire and burning plants, and they were soon frightened and at a loss.
Yun Mianmian picked up a knife and began to harvest.
Half an hour later, the ground was full of snake carcasses.
They also had a rich harvest.
[Obtained snake meat × 224, snake gall × 28, rose stone × 28]
Yun Mianmian and Lin Qi received 9 rose stones.
Zhao Yichen took one more, and got 10 rose stones.
The others were still placed in Zhao Yichen's backpack and divided later.
After dealing with the snakes, they were exhausted.
But they all breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, no one was bitten, and Yun Mianmian didn't have to take out her Qingxin Pills.
The three walked west for another ten minutes, and indeed found a large area of desert rose stones.
The desert rose stones in pieces are very spectacular, like the work of nature.
These desert rose stones are big or small, and the shapes are not exactly the same, but each piece is very beautiful.
The desert rose stones I saw or got before were all single, with a diameter of about 43 cm to 5 cm.
But the desert rose stones in front of me are much larger.
Some single pieces can reach 8 cm or 10 cm in diameter.
I even saw many conjoined desert rose stones.
There are branches and clusters.
The conjoined desert rose stones are very large, in various shapes, in pieces, and the largest is one or two meters high.
Yun Mianmian was dazzled.
After discussing, the three decided to divide all the rose stones equally.
The conjoined desert rose stones can be broken down into small pieces.
But there were enough single pieces, so they didn't decompose them for now. If they didn't decompose them, the combined Desert Rose Stone would occupy another grid, and the backpack couldn't fit them. Yun Mianmian had to take out all the suitcases and put them in the car later.
Finally, they counted their gains.
[Desert Rose Stone × 108, Desert Rose Stone (large) × 8]
Each person could get 36 rose stones.
The large ones would be divided later.
It was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
The three of them were sweating and tanned.
Their bodies and faces were covered with sand, and they were dirty and sloppy.
Zhao Yichen: "I can't stand it anymore, let's go back to the oasis."
Yun Mianmian: "Let's go, we've gained a lot today, let's go back and exchange things."
Zhao Yichen and Lin Qi took the car out of their backpacks, and the three of them got in the car and left. They had thought about hiding in the pyramids before, but they worked until more than three o'clock, and the sun was not that hot.
It would take another hour to get back to the oasis.
They simply went back, exchanged things first, and then took a shower.
At present, only Yun Mianmian's backpack had more than 50 desert rose stones, and Lin Qi and Zhao Yichen had more than 40 desert rose stones each, but they could also exchange for a lot of things.
Along the way, Yun Mianmian discussed with Zhao Yichen what to exchange.
Yun Mianmian decided to exchange for a sand fishing pit map first.
Zhao Yichen planned to change a signal gun and contact card.
Yun Mianmian: "Who do you want to contact?"
Zhao Yichen: "Contact Wei Yue and tell him about the situation here and see if we can get together."
Yun Mianmian: "Okay."
Yun Mianmian actually wanted to contact her mother or Yun Xiao, but the problem was that she couldn't send supplies even if she contacted them, and they were not in the same area, so it didn't make much sense. But she could wait and see, in case they could get in touch and meet.
Then she could buy one.
She could still afford ten desert rose stones.
The three of them returned to the oasis, but found that there were other people here too.
Before getting out of the car, Yun Mianmian saw through the car window that five people were surrounding the man in white and talking to him.
Yun Mianmian saw Mu Baiyin.
The five people were two girls and three boys.
Yun Mianmian quickly realized that the other girl was Bai Jiaoyi who had been contacting her.
The sound of the car was very loud, and Yun Mianmian's car was discovered as soon as it came.
The people in Bai Jiaoyi's team said vigilantly: "Why are there people here again?"
Another man said: "Isn't the car they are driving the one we saw yesterday?"
Bai Jiaoyi said in surprise: "Is it Yun Mianmian?"
She looked at Mu Baiyin.
Mu Baiyin nodded. She didn't expect that according to Bai Jiaoyi's method, Yun Mianmian could really be found.
