He glanced at the time; it was already eight in the evening. It happened to be a moonless night, and the starry sky was unusually clear and bright, a dazzling river of stars hanging in the sky. This was a sight Xu Xin, who had lived in the city since childhood, had never seen before.
"I remember the moonlight was very bright last night. It seemed to be a full moon, right? And it's already a new moon today. This world is really strange."
Xu Xin sighed, but didn't care. After all, it was another world and could not be measured according to the laws of the earth.
He armed himself once again and headed northwest of the tree house.
There is a lake to the northwest of the tree house. If Xu Xin wants to get there, he must first go around the lake.
Of course, he had also thought that the location of the golden treasure chest was in this lake.
But if it was really in the lake, he would have no way to get the golden treasure chest at this time.
This lake is dangerous.
Although the giant anaconda in the center of the lake is no longer there, this lake is still the only place with red dots within a three-kilometer radius of his tree house. Although the red dots concentrated in the center of the lake are not very bright, and are much dimmer than the wolves killed by the black bear before, they are numerous, densely packed, and constantly swimming. They should be a school of piranhas or something like that.
With his current abilities, fighting with piranhas for a treasure chest in the water is purely for the sake of wanting to see the Black and White Impermanence.
Xu Xin swung his arms and threw a stone into the center of the lake.
"Hmm?" Coco on his shoulder was affected by Xu Xin's movements. She grabbed his shoulders and was almost thrown off. She grabbed his clothes and used all her limbs to climb onto his shoulders again.
The stone hit the center of the lake, splashing huge water, and the lake water boiled up in an instant. Because the lake water was very clear and the center of the lake was deep, no mud or sand would be stirred up. Xu Xin could vaguely see countless fish swimming around frantically under the water, and several fish jumped out of the water one after another.
It was a blood-red fish that looked only slightly larger than his palm, but its sharp teeth, like saw teeth, made Xu Xin feel frightened.
It turned out to be piranhas. These piranhas seemed to only roam around the center of the lake and not come to the lakeside, so the fish and shrimps diving near the lake were not harmed.
At this time, because of Xu Xin's stone, a frightened huge grass carp mistakenly entered the center of the lake.
At that moment, the lake suddenly began to boil again, its violent splashes higher than those from the stone Xu Xin had thrown. A faint blood-red smudge had spread from the area where the grass carp had been, only to be diluted by the lake water and disappear.
Oh my god, I can’t afford to offend him. Let’s look for another place first.
Walking around the lake, Xu Xin soon reached the other side of the lake.
Xu Xin was not very familiar with the northwest direction. He only came here to take a few casual glances during the initial exploration, and found that there were no blue supplies, so he never came here again, so the map of this area is black.
Xu Xin moved straight towards the direction indicated by the compass of the golden treasure chest. With the map, he didn't have to worry about drawing arcs or circles in the jungle like other people. The compass in his hands could naturally play the greatest role.
The resource area extends eastward from the lake, so after walking a few hundred meters northwest, you have walked out of the resource area and are surrounded by a sea of white light again.
But Xu Xin didn't think there was anything wrong. The copper treasure chest and the silver treasure chest were not located inside the resource area. They were both relatively far away from the tree house, and there were no high-level resources around them. According to this rule, the gold treasure chest might not be inside the resource area either.
Xu Xin continued walking forward without any idea, stroking Coco on his shoulder from time to time, but Coco did not lead the way for him like he did when he was looking for the copper treasure chest. Instead, he just lay on Xu Xin's shoulder, looking a little listless.
That's right. I've been busy with Xu Xin all day. Now it's evening and time for the little one to go to bed.
"Coco, the red berries and oranges I gave you have no special effect on you?" Xu Xin has given Coco several oranges today. If the effect of oranges can also work on it, then logically speaking, it shouldn't feel sleepy, right?
"Hmm?" Coco tilted her head and looked at him, with confusion in her eyes that were a little difficult to open.
It seemed the special effects of the blue material were useless to them. Xu Xin shook his head, held Keke in his arms, stroked its furry tail, and said, "Get some sleep. I'll wake you up if anything happens. You'll have to be alert then."
"Hmm." Coco responded and then curled up in Xu Xin's arms and fell asleep.
The jungle was very quiet at night, without even the sound of insects, only the rustling of leaves and the sound of his feet on the grass.
Xu Xin felt a little uncomfortable without Coco moving around on his shoulders and sweeping his neck with her tail.
Although there were no red dots representing enemy units on the map at this time, Xu Xin was still highly concentrated, constantly sensing the movements around him and the changes on the map.
It was still the same old jungle, a poplar forest. After walking for so long, Xu Xin didn't feel anything was wrong around him.
[Reminder: Do not leave the tree house more than three kilometers away, otherwise something you don’t want to see will happen.]
We've reached the border again.
Standing at the border, Xu Xin frowned.
He was really at his wit's end this time. He had been following the compass all the way, but he hadn't noticed anything unusual. Could it be that the treasure chest was really in the lake?
This is troublesome.
Xu Xin raised his head and looked at the hills that were just around the corner.
