Chapter 6 Chapter 6 [Get extra "coriander seeds" x10...
The village was still quiet, without a single sound, only some unpleasant smells spreading everywhere.
Ye Mian stopped at the entrance of the village: "Search separately. If there is any danger, make some noise first and then use your skills. I will ask Dahei to help you."
"Okay." Xue Kai nodded, then walked directly to the right side of the village road.
Seeing him walking away, Ye Mian took Dahei and entered the village from the left.
This village is really small. You can see the end at a glance. All in all, there are probably less than fifty households.
Retracting his gaze, Ye Mian took out the list Xue Kai had made and took a look at it. Except for the water pipes, the necessary items specially circled on it were all household items.
The former is for easier watering in the future, while the latter is a complete necessity.
Ye Mian looked at the houses and without thinking, he picked a two-story building with a yard that looked newer.
After all, she had been poor before, and she knew that even for some essential things, she would only buy a little at a time and use it at a time, and would never hoard them.
So if there is a choice, she will of course choose the tallest one among the short ones first.
As soon as he walked in, Ye Mian couldn't help but pause. He saw the yard was in a mess, as if a fierce fight between wild beasts had happened there. In front of the half-open door of the small building, there were some dark red mottled marks extending all the way inside, which looked like blood.
I don’t know whether it belongs to a beast or a human.
If it is a mutant and is still inside... Ye Mian's expression became more solemn. Dahei, who was standing next to him, arched his back when he smelled the strong smell of blood. His hair stood up and his six eyes were full of vigilance.
According to Yuan Yemian's memory, the combat power of mutants is basically above that of mutant beasts and mutant plants. The latter two can only gain strength by devouring their own kind, but mutants are not picky about anything, which means that they not only have intelligence, but also have a variety of means of attack.
Even though Dahei has evolved once, he is not invincible or immortal, so you still have to be careful.
"Shh, be gentle."
Ye Mian walked a little forward, let Dahei follow behind him, and carefully approached the door of the small building.
"Squeak"
After pushing the door slightly inward, Ye Mian stepped aside and peeked inside through the wider gap. When she saw this, she was even more stunned.
The house was even more messy, with large pools of dark red blood everywhere. You could vaguely see some rotten meat scattered everywhere, emitting a foul smell.
Is this a house that has both mutants and evolvers?
Apparently, the former is the winner.
Ye Mian frowned slightly. Although she had the memories of the original Ye Mian, it was only when she saw this scene with her own eyes that she felt the cruelty that this was a world experiencing doomsday destruction.
After waiting for a while and making sure that there was dead silence inside, Ye Mian walked closer and pushed the door open completely.
The mutants still retain the five senses of humans. They didn't attract any attacks despite such a big noise, so they probably ran away long ago.
Slightly covering his nose, Ye Mian walked a few steps inside against the more distinct stench. After standing in the middle of the living room and looking around, he gestured to Dahei beside him, "Stand guard at the door. Give the alarm if there's anything unusual."
"Woof~"
Dahei responded, then squatted obediently at the door and looked outside.
Ye Mian acted quickly and searched the first floor first.
However, the first floor had been the scene of a fierce fight, and almost no corner was intact. After opening the door of a room that was suspected to be a storage room and seeing that it was almost in ruins, Ye Mian decisively closed the door and went straight to the second floor.
The situation on the second floor was better. Although there were bloodstains and rotten flesh in the corridor, many things in the room remained the same except that it was a little messy.
After a thorough search, Ye Mian finally gained some results.
They were a box of unopened paper towels, bottled toiletries that had been used for a while, some brand new soaps, a box of unopened toothbrushes, and half a tube of toothpaste.
After putting them all into the warehouse and saying thank you silently, Ye Mian went downstairs to meet Dahei and continued to check other houses.
Although there are several similar small buildings in the village, they are either deserted or destroyed by mutants, so basically nothing was gained.
The other houses were so horrible that you didn't even have to go in to see what was going on. You could tell there was nothing there.
Just when Ye Mian was about to try to find the water pipe again, she heard Xue Kai calling her: "Ye Mian, this way!"
Because they had just agreed to speak up first if anything happened, Ye Mian subconsciously thought that he was in danger and quickly asked Dahei to run over to support him.
When she arrived, she saw Xue Kai huddled in the corner with his hands raised, looking scared but strong and calm. Dahei was breathing at him and wagging his tail. The scene looked a little funny.
"...Dahei," Ye Mian called the three-headed dog, which did look a little scary, behind him and looked around, "Are you okay?"
Xue Kai coughed lightly and put down his hand: "It's okay, I just wanted you to come and see this."
"Hmm?" Ye Mian looked at what he was pointing at. It was a tool made of two large round stones with a wooden handle on it, which should be able to rotate.
"Oh, you probably don't know this. This is called a stone mill. It can be used to grind flour. It will be very useful after we grow wheat and rice."
Xue Kai said, feeling somewhat fortunate, "Fortunately this side is relatively remote, so it is well preserved, otherwise I don't know how to repair it."
Ye Mian then understood why he had specifically called her over, so she stepped forward and placed her hand on the millstone.
[Do you want to pick up "Stone Mill" x1? ]
After she nodded yes, the stone mill, which was so heavy that it seemed to have taken root in the ground, disappeared out of thin air.
Although he had seen her retrieve and store items several times, Xue Kai couldn't help but feel deeply moved when he witnessed it with his own eyes again. It's great to have a system!
"Oh, I found something else."
Xue Kai walked aside and showed Ye Mian his harvest - some bowls and plates mixed with hay, a bucket of golden oil, and several bags of white granules with the word "salt" written on them.
"These were found in a locked cellar, luckily there were no rats in it."
Ye Mian nodded, then quietly put it into the warehouse: "You didn't find the water pipe either?"
"No, if there is one, it's bad."
Xue Kai was somewhat helpless: "Maybe I have to look in the factory or the city, but that kind of place..."
He didn't finish his words, but Ye Mian, who possessed the memories of his original body, knew in his heart that in places like that where there were more people, there would definitely be wandering mutants, and maybe more than one or two.
"Then let's go back. We'll discuss entering the city later."
"good."
As soon as he returned to the farm, Xue Kai went straight to the vegetable field where he had just planted the seeds, and was pleasantly surprised to find that a bunch of green leaves had already sprouted out.
"I'll water it again. Judging from the speed, we should be able to harvest the vegetables soon."
After saying that, he trotted into the house and came out soon with a kettle full of water.
Seeing him watering the vegetables, Ye Mian remembered that there were still a hundred portions of premium fertilizer from the gift package in the warehouse. Before taking them out, she subconsciously clicked to check.
[Special fertilizer: improve soil quality, significantly increase yield, and have a certain chance of triggering random events] (Instructions: Please use before sowing, and do not overdose)
ah.
That's no use now.
As for what this random event was, Ye Mian looked at the bare grass roots surrounding the vegetable plot. He should be able to find out after planting another wave of crops.
But before that, there is one more thing.
Ye Mian closed the warehouse and clicked on the task.
After completing the novice series of tasks, the task interface will change. There will be two options: main quest and side quest. There are several tasks waiting to be completed, with some task instructions and tips.
Ye Mian studied it carefully and soon came to the conclusion - the main tasks must be completed, and if the current ones are not completed, no new ones will appear.
Side quests are optional. If you accept them but don’t want to do them, you can give up. They will refresh once a day.
Ye Mian ignored the side quests and directly took on the three main quests.
【Grow some crops and harvest (0/10)】
[Obtain twenty special rewards (0/20)]
[Trigger a random event (0/1)]
"Okay, start planting."
Closing the system interface, Ye Mian called Xue Kai over after watering the plants and assigned him the task of digging grass roots and turning the soil in an area.
She also carried a hoe and went to another area.
Dahei still took a sickle and continued to cut weeds in other places.
They worked until sunset. When Ye Mian stood up and took a rest while staring at the overly enchanting sunset glow in the sky, he heard Xue Kai shouting excitedly, "It's done, it's done!"
Ye Mian dropped the hoe and walked over to take a look, then he understood why Xue Kai was so excited.
I saw clusters of vegetables growing very vigorously, filling the entire vegetable field without any gaps.
"Let me see, there are cabbage, lettuce, spinach, cabbage, broccoli, etc., and carrots!"
Xue Kai's eyes became brighter and brighter: "I can have a vegetable dinner tonight!"
Ye Mian had all these names in her memory, but she couldn't figure out which one was which. She could only roll up her sleeves silently and asked, "Should we pull it out directly or cut it off?"
"Well," Xue Kai thought for a moment, then pointed to a tall, slender plant and said, "Pull out the carrots by the roots, and pick the others from above the rhizomes first."
"OK."
Seeing Ye Mian set off directly, Xue Kai also squatted down and started picking vegetables.
He was more skilled and stronger, and soon reaped the rewards.
Before Ye Mian could successfully pull out a carrot, he saw text boxes popping up one after another.
【Get extra "Cabbage Seeds" X10! 】
【Get extra "Lettuce Seeds" X10! 】
【Get an extra "Biguo" X1! 】
【Get an extra "Vegetable Salad Recipe" X1! 】
Can you give me a recipe?
Ye Mian was stunned, and just then the carrot seedling in her hand loosened and she successfully pulled it out. She couldn't keep her balance for a moment and fell directly into the soil.
【Get extra "coriander seeds" x100! 】
?
Xue Kai turned around and glanced at her when he heard the voice. He didn't know that she was stunned by the system pop-up window. He just thought that she didn't know how to do farm work, so he simply said: "Let me do it. You go and rest, and sort out the things you collected."
"...Alright."
