Volcano Season: 71 Days 2
The scorching sun, the hot sand, and the dazzling sunlight are all unbearable.
Mu Baiyin couldn't help wanting to drink water after walking a few steps.
Fortunately, there was enough water in the backpack.
A total of 30 barrels, 3L each.
To live here for ten days, water is essential.
After learning that the next season would be dry, she began to stock up on water.
The problem is that even if there is water, she has to find an oasis, because this water is all her water resources. After these ten days, what about after that?
Mu Baiyin has already thought that if no water source is found in the first five days, then all this water will have to be saved.
Walking two steps in the sand is very tiring, and it consumes more energy.
It is really too hot, and Mu Baiyin's face is very painful from the sun.
She wore a sun hat and sunglasses, but the wind and sand still blew onto her face. She
needed a face towel.
Before setting off, she was sorting out her supplies, so she didn't see Yun Mianmian put face towels on the shelf. By the time she knew about this, the face towels had been snapped up.
She wanted to trade with Yun Mianmian, but she didn't have enough time.
As soon as the message was sent, she was teleported here.
There was yellow sand everywhere, not a single bit of green.
This discomfort inevitably made people anxious.
Mu Baiyin opened the chat channel and found that the regional chat and the whole server chat were also locked, leaving only the regional chat.
It was the same as the previous desert island survival.
Players could not contact the outside world and could only communicate with those in their own area.
Then they could not trade online, and could only trade face to face.
Mu Baiyin was still wondering when she would meet a player, when she saw a tall and thin girl not far away.
She hesitated, but still walked over.
You can't just stop interacting with people because you are worried and always be a lone ranger.
In the desert, the power of one person is too small.
And the other party is also alone, so it's not bad for two girls to be together.
Mu Baiyin was thinking this, and the girl also saw her.
She was stunned for a moment, and then walked towards Mu Baiyin quickly.
Bai Jiaoyi said happily: "Finally I saw someone, which district are you from?"
Mu Baiyin: "I'm from District 3."
Bai Jiaoyi: "Wow, I'm from District 2, hello, hello, my name
is Bai Jiaoyi." Mu Baiyin: "Hello, I'm Mu Baiyin."
The two briefly introduced their names to each other, and didn't discuss too much information.
After all, they just met, and they were both a little wary.
The two of them walked forward together and found a relatively high hill to avoid the wind and sand.
After sitting down, they finally had time to catch their breath.
Bai Jiaoyi whispered, "This place is too dry and hot. I really don't know how everyone is going to live here."
Her voice was very soft, but her throat was a little dry. After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but take out the water bottle and drink a sip of water.
Mu Baiyin nodded in agreement. Seeing Bai Jiaoyi drinking water, she finally couldn't help it and took out a bottle of water and took a sip. There was
limited space in the backpack, and she didn't bring any other containers. She could only take out a 3L bottle of water for drinking, which was a bit exaggerated compared to Bai Jiaoyi's small water bottle.
But Mu Baiyin didn't care so much. She didn't drink it all, but just took a small sip.
Bai Jiaoyi: "By the way, I have contacted my friends in the regional chat, and they came to find me immediately. What about you? Do you want to see if there are any friends nearby?"
Mu Baiyin opened the chat channel.
She has few friends in the game. She didn't communicate with other players on the ship until she met and joined Yun Mianmian's team. She became close to Wen Yushi and occasionally chatted with Yun Mianmian.
And Luo Ze, she knew what supplies he had, so she would ask him if he needed them and whether he wanted to exchange them.
Mu Baiyin sent a message.
Mu Baiyin: "Are there any players from District 3 in this area?"
She thought to herself, maybe someone she knew would contact her when they saw her name.
As a result, she soon saw a private message.
Can private messages be sent in the regional chat this time?
Mu Baiyin didn't notice it at first.
[Regional Chat/Yunmianmian (Zone 3)/3.8km: I'm here too.]
Mu Baiyin quickly replied: [That's great, but we seem a bit far away.]
[Regional Chat/Yunmianmian (Zone 3)/3.8km: It's OK, it takes some time to walk here, I guess we won't be able to meet today, how are you doing over there?]
Mu Baiyin didn't have any problems, he just talked briefly and agreed to meet tomorrow.
Mu Baiyin: [Are you alone?]
[Regional Chat/Yunmianmian (Zone 3)/3.8km: Yes, I have an oasis map here, I need a reference, if you see a reference, tell me, we'll go find the oasis together. Yun
Mianmian was wrapped up tightly at this time, with a face towel wrapped around her head, covering her hair and face. The face towel was wet, which could effectively cool her down.
Because she was wearing sunglasses, she wouldn't be blinded even if she looked up.
But some things couldn't be seen clearly, but this was in the desert, and there was nothing else except sand.
Just be careful of cobras and scorpions.
There were a lot of scorpions in the desert, and if one got into your clothes, it would be troublesome.
Although it was very hot, Yun Mianmian wore long sleeves and long pants, with the trouser legs tucked into her boots, leaving no gaps at all.
She had not closed the regional chat, just to find acquaintances, but she did not send a message first. Her mother reminded her that a tall tree attracts the wind. She is very famous in the whole server. What if someone targets her?
Although her combat power is high, it is a special period now. The friend chat is closed, and she cannot call for reinforcements. If a group of people come to find her, she will also be in danger.
After seeing Mu Baiyin, Yun Mianmian contacted her immediately.
Although she only met Mu Baiyin later, Yun Mianmian was very confident in her character and kept in touch with her afterwards. She was quite strong, and it would definitely be a good thing to be able to travel with her.
For now, it is always safer to travel with familiar people than with strangers.
She was riding on a camel and did not have to exert any effort, so Yun Mianmian did not need to drink a lot of water. Although she had plenty of water, she took small sips and held the water in her mouth to keep her lips moist at all times, which made her feel better.
Although the wind and sand were strong now, she had to find a place to build a shelter after the sun went down.
The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is huge. Even though it is very hot now, the temperature will drop sharply at night. Many people think that they can just lie down anywhere at night because it is too hot during the day, but they freeze to death at night.
It is troublesome to catch a cold or get sick here. If you get
sick, you will become weak and cannot survive in this environment.
Yun Mianmian rode the camel, but did not control which direction it went. Instead, she let it go by itself to see if it would take her to a place with water.
As a result, the camel carried her for a long time, but only saw a big tree.
It was a sea buckthorn tree growing on the sand dunes, and it was even full of yellow fruits.
Yun Mianmian rolled the dice in the morning, and her luck today was just average.
So it took several hours to see a sea buckthorn tree. If my wish comes true, maybe I can find an oasis today.
The sea buckthorn tree is a very tenacious plant. It can not only endure severe cold but also high temperatures.
These yellow fruits are also good things. They contain a lot of nutrients and are good for the body.
Yun Mianmian climbed up the tree and picked a lot of them. She put a handful into her mouth first.
There is no equipment now, otherwise these sea buckthorn fruits can be made into juice drinks.
The leaves of sea buckthorn are also useful and can be used to make tea.
Yun Mianmian picked up some dry branches and leaves and prepared to make a fire to make something to eat before the sun went down.
She brought a flint and quickly lit the fire.
Because of the limited space in the backpack, the food we brought was the same. The vegetables and meat were potatoes and beef respectively.
This was mainly because potatoes were filling and could be used to make a variety of delicacies, and beef could provide protein and tasted good.
In addition, potatoes and beef go well together.
Yun Mianmian decided to have beef stew with potatoes tonight.
Her suitcase was filled with a lot of things, including a frying pan.
This frying pan is deeper and is suitable for boiling water or stewing vegetables.
It will take some time for the fire to get bigger after it is lit, so Yun Mianmian quickly took out her sleeping bag and laid it out. She planned to sleep under the sea buckthorn tree and pile up the things next to it. Although it was very simple, it would be enough for a night.
We would leave tomorrow, so there was no need to build a very comfortable nest.
After finishing, she continued to cook.
Under the current conditions, being able to live and cook is already a luxury. There are many people in the chat channel who are suffering from sunsickness and heatstroke.
Yun Mianmian did not plan to wash the outer layer of mud on the potatoes with water. The potatoes were peeled and the inside was clean. The beef was also washed, so she just washed her hands and rinsed the potatoes.
She also brought a bucket of corn oil that she squeezed herself. After the pot was heated, she poured a little bit of it into the pot and fried the potatoes and beef in oil first. The aroma will be more intense and the taste will be better.
The beef is selected from the fattiest part, not the dry and lean kind. This kind of beef will be very fragrant after frying and roasting, and the taste will be sublimated when paired with vegetables.
It will be particularly delicious without seasoning.
Of course, Yun Mianmian brought a small bag of salt and a little chili.
Before coming here, Yun Mianmian had thought about making a huge box directly, like a container, and putting the supplies in it to occupy a grid.
But the system wouldn't let her put it in.
In the end, she tried several methods.
Only the 24-inch small suitcase she brought from home could fit in.
It seems that the system is also afraid that players will take shortcuts. Although the rule this time is twelve grids, there are still many people who use containers to put a lot of scattered things in the grids.
Therefore, the containers made by the system do not need to be put into the backpack. Only boxes or backpacks that are originally used to hold things can be put into the backpack after they are filled.
After the meat was cooked, it was already dark. It
was pitch black all around, with only a bonfire in front of Yun Mianmian.
And the sky was full of stars.
Looking at the sky full of stars, it felt really amazing.
Yun Mianmian suddenly thought that Octopus Girl and Xiaoyi were still in the pet bag, so she just let them out.
They were probably hungry too.
As soon as Octopus Girl came out, she smelled the delicious beef.
Xiaoyi was also clamoring for food.
Yun Mianmian cooked beef for Xiaoyi alone and threw a piece to him. He immediately opened his mouth to catch it.
When Yun Mianmian saw Xiaoyi, she suddenly had an idea.
That's right! Xiaoyi can fly, why not let him help find an oasis? He can fly and take a look. Isn't it very efficient? He just needs to see which piece is green and run back to tell her.
The busier you are, the dumber you become. You even forgot this.
Yun Mianmian touched the pearl bracelet on her hand. She originally planned to ask the pearl bracelet tomorrow if she couldn't find it.
In fact, she asked the pearl bracelet today, but there was no response at all. The cooling time had obviously passed. It seemed that this thing didn't always work. It might also be because of her average luck today.
But now it was already dark, and Xiaoyi hadn't grown up yet. Yun Mianmian was not sure about letting it go at night, so she decided to wait until tomorrow morning to let Xiaoyi look for it.
Octopus Girl and Yun Mianmian kept eating beef stew with potatoes, and they looked very happy.
After eating, they continued to watch the chat channel.
There are 10,000 people in this area.
But the activity level is very low.
Not many people are talking inside.
Because speaking will expose your region and position.
Just like when Yun Mianmian privately chatted with Mu Baiyin, Mu Baiyin could see the distance between Yun Mianmian and her.
What if others saw that she was very close to him? What if others ran out of water and food and came to rob him?
Everyone thinks so.
Now you can find people on the battle power list. You can tell whether the opponent is strong or not by looking at the name and region. Most players have learned to keep a low profile.
Of course, there are also some strong people who are fearless.
For example, Yun Mianmian has seen Lin Qi from District 1 and Xu Sanyue from District 10 speak.
They are all looking for people.
District 3 and District 1 have a cooperative relationship, and Yun Mianmian also privately chatted with Lin Qi.
Although she had never dealt with him, Yun Mianmian was not sure what kind of person he was, but the two districts were cooperating after all. Yun Mianmian also heard Wei Yue mention Lin Qi, and had a good relationship with him.
Moreover, Yun Mianmian saw that Lin Qi's combat power was only slightly higher than hers.
Let's contact him first.
She sent a greeting message.
The other party replied quickly.
[Regional Chat/Lin Qi (District 1)/28.1km: Hello. ]
Yun Mianmian looked at the distance and it was a bit far.
It was estimated that it would be difficult to meet.
Yun Mianmian: [I saw you looking for someone in the regional chat, did you find him? ]
[Regional Chat/Lin Qi (District 1)/28.1km: Not yet, not necessarily here. ]
Yun Mianmian: [We are too far away, it is estimated that it is difficult to meet. ]
[Regional chat/Lin Qi (Zone 1)/28.1km: Not difficult. ]
Yun Mianmian: [? ]
[Regional chat/Lin Qi (Zone 1)/28.1km: I have a desert motorcycle, it only takes half an hour to get here. ]
Yun Mianmian: [……]
This must be Versailles.
Yun Mianmian looked at the camel beside her.
She only had a camel, but others had desert motorcycles.
Well, it doesn’t matter, Xiaoyi will grow up soon, and she will have a flying mount.
Yun Mianmian looked at Xiaoyi, "You have to grow up quickly."
Xiaoyi understood, flapped his wings twice, and raised his head proudly.
Octopus girl waved her tentacles in disdain: "It's so ugly when it grows so big."
Its voice sounded like its throat was strangled, which sounded very strange, "I'm so thirsty, I'm so thirsty."
Yun Mianmian then realized that Octopus girl's tentacles had become dry, unlike before when they were wet and sticky on the boat, where there was water everywhere. Now they were covered with a lot of sand, which didn't look good. Yun Mianmian felt
a little distressed and poured half a bottle of water on it, "It seems that you are not used to the environment here, so you should stay in your backpack and don't come out unless you have something to do."
Octopus girl was reluctant, "Just drink some water, drink a lot of water."
Yun Mianmian sighed: "No, you need a lot of water like this, I can't give you that much."
It can only be in the backpack, it's okay to go out occasionally, but not every day.
Octopus Girl glared at the pterosaur next to her, as if it was all her fault for taking Yun Mian Mian away.
The pterosaur didn't seem to understand Octopus Girl's hostility, but when it heard Yun Mian Mian wanted to put Octopus Girl away and it didn't need to go in, it was very happy and jumped beside her.
"Then you shrink me, make me very small, and I only need a little water, soak in a small bottle, how about that?" Octopus Girl thought of a solution for herself.
Yun Mian Mian was stunned for a moment, and laughed out loud: "You are really a smart ghost."
Octopus Girl can indeed shrink, but before, she only made it smaller, and she hadn't tried how small it could shrink.
"Then you try it."
Octopus Girl made a sound, and soon became smaller and smaller, until it became as big as an egg.
Yun Mianmian: "Wow, it's so small, it can be put in a small bottle and soaked in water."
In this way, it does not need to be put in the pet bag, but it seems that there is no difference between staying in the small bottle and staying in the pet bag.
But Squidward insisted on doing so, and pointed at the pterosaur and said, "It's outside, I won't go in."
Yun Mianmian had never raised two pets before, but she saw on the Internet that other people raised two small animals, and the small animals would compete for pets.
It seems that this is the case.
Squidward is small, but she can still talk. She showed off in the bottle, "I can become small, can you? Ugly bird."
Hearing the name of Ugly Bird, Yun Mianmian held back her laughter.
As a result, the pterosaur picked up the bottle and flew up, circling in the sky.
Yun Mianmian: "You two, come down and stop making trouble."
Yun Mianmian shouted, but it was useless.
She kept looking at the sky and had no intention of looking at anything else, so she didn't know that at this time, someone on the chat channel was saying: "Did anyone see anything flying in the sky?"
"What is it?"
"It's a big strange bird."
"Damn, I just saw it too."
"It doesn't look like a bird, it's so big, it looks like a lizard!"
"Oh my god, a flying lizard? There can't be monsters in this game."
"No way, a desert lizard."
After flying for a long time, the pterosaur was tired and came down. Yun Mianmian simply put them both in the pet bag.
It was then that she realized that the chat channel was all about the strange bird.
Yun Mianmian thought that no one should know that it was hers.
