Chapter 137: Famine is coming?



Xu Xin immediately asked in the explorer group: "Do you have plenty of food when you go out exploring?"

Li Wenxi: "I was just about to ask, I'm tired of eating meat these days and want to eat some fruit, but I searched for a long time and couldn't even find a fruit tree. I can't just eat blue-level fruit to satisfy my craving..."

Qi Xuefei: "I haven't left the house yet."

Wang Lei: "I don't have any here... My refrigerator was struck by lightning, and now there's no food outside. This is too difficult!"

Ji Chaoyang: "At least for now, I can hardly get food from the jungle. I don't know how long this situation will last."

Qin Yunlong: "The fish in the lake have become fewer and fewer. Before, there were schools of fish in the lake, but now there are only a few scattered here and there."

Wang Lei: "I'm so hungry... Can you eat ornamental fish?"

Zhao Xiaochuan: "I still have some food. Call Daddy and I'll share some with you."

Wang Lei: "Fuck you, Boss!"

Xu Xin, feeling somewhat amused, traded him ten kilograms of green-grade carp meat, the same large carp he had let go earlier. He also traded Li Wenxi a few apples he had just picked.

Wang Lei: "Holy crap! Boss Xu actually gave me ten pounds of fish! Thank you, Boss! I love you, Boss!"

Li Wenxi: "It's an apple! Love you, Xu Xin!"

"Wang Lei, shut up." Xu Xin said unhappily, then asked, "I found this fish on the ground after the water receded. Don't you have any?"

Wang Lei: "Why do you just tell me to shut up..."

Wen Guixin: "No, I've been out and about, but I haven't seen any food. However, I did see a tree called rosewood, which produces redwood. It's very rare, and you have to use an iron axe to cut it down. A stone axe won't work."

Can only be chopped with an iron axe?

Xu Xin had indeed just used an iron axe to chop down trees. The description of the iron axe said that it could be used to chop down certain special types of trees, and rosewood was probably one of them.

No wonder its seeds are so special.

However, if this situation continues, I'm afraid there will really be a famine.

Fortunately, he was not short of food. There was a plantation on the top floor of his tree house, and an ice cellar full of mutant beast meat on the bottom floor. Let alone a shortage of food, it was no problem for him to feed the entire [Explorer].

But others may be in for a rough ride.

Many of the survivors' treehouses had their belongings destroyed by lightning during the rainy season, most likely including their stored food, as in Wang Lei's case. But even if they weren't destroyed, it wouldn't be easy.

Today is already the third day after leaving the dungeon. The mutant beast meat in their hands is basically rotten. If they had gone out to pick and hunt on the day of rest before the rainstorm, they could have held on for another day until tomorrow. Otherwise, they would starve tonight.

Unless they eat meat and fruit that may rot, but if it causes diarrhea and vomiting, the consequences are much more serious than starvation. Eating rotten meat is simply seeking death.

There are water resources, and we can actually survive for a while without food. It depends on how long this situation will last. If it lasts for a long time, we may have to eat tree bark and grass roots.

Xu Xin glanced around again.

He had already completely searched all the blue-level resources around him, and now he looked towards the hills.

There's a resource area over there, and there must be new resources now, but...

He now has two choices: go back and continue carving to improve the decoration of the tree house, or go to the hilly resource area to explore again. That place is very special. The beast statue altar alone is worth Xu Xin's inspection now.

Xu Xin looked at the hills in the distance with complicated eyes. He now basically equated those hills with the blood-marked trolls that appeared last time.

Xu Xin checked the map and confirmed that there were no red dots over there either.

Originally, there were three tigers in the hilly resource area, but one died from the contaminated meat of the mutant wildcat summoned by Xu Xin, leaving only two. Now, the other two are nowhere to be found.

He had never explored the hilly resource area carefully before because he was afraid of being targeted by those tigers. There were also wolves there, which were not easy to deal with for him at that time.

Now is a great time to explore.

Go and take a look.

Although there were no wild beasts for him to sacrifice now, he was a little curious whether the altar would change. After all, he had seen with his own eyes that the statues on the altar had changed.

Riding on the Silver King, Xu Xin moved rapidly towards the hilly resource area.

The closer he got, the more familiar Xu Xin felt.

Arriving at the foot of the hill, Xu Xin saw the mine where he dug salt.

The surrounding jungle had already been completely transformed, and even the resource area inside the hills had changed its appearance. Only the area near the hills remained completely unchanged.

At the foot of the hill, the tree where Xu Xin hid from the wild boar was still standing there. There was also the arched-out pit under the tree, and even the roots were still exposed. Nothing had changed.

Fat Gu

When he reached the entrance of the mine, Xu Xin immediately noticed something strange.

Not long after the water receded, the soil outside the mine was soft and moist, but the ground inside the mine was completely dry!

Furthermore, there was some salt slag on the ground, which was obviously left behind after Xu Xin's last mining. If water had really flooded into the mine, then these slags would not be there, after all, salt is soluble in water.

Sure enough, it was confirmed. If it wasn't visible from a distance, it might be an illusion, but everything in the mine pointed to the fact that there had never been water here.
