Xu Xin: "You don't have to call me boss, just call me Xu Xin."
Wang Lei: "Okay, Boss Xu Xin!"
After turning off the small screen of his watch, Xu Xin looked towards the mine and his heart beat faster.
Is it a salt mine?
He walked into the cave and saw white crystals all over the ground.
He took out a boning knife and pried up a piece of white crystal from the ground.
[Salt crystals: Crystals rich in salt, which can be extracted to obtain edible salt.]
"Beautiful!" Xu Xin was excited. He finally found the salt. His mouth was so tasteless that he wanted to lie down and lick it like a wild boar.
This salt mine is a valuable resource. While there's no shortage of food in the jungle, the human body needs salt, a resource all survivors lack! Someone would definitely trade this valuable resource for it.
Xu Xin felt like he was about to become a salt smuggler.
"That's it. How do we extract it? Distill it? I wonder if the synthesis table can make tools to extract salt. Forget it, let's take it back first."
Xu Xin took out the stone draft and started mining the salt mine.
There was so much salt in the cave that it was impossible to mine it all. Xu Xin stopped mining after mining about 20 kilograms of salt.
Anyway, the salt mine here won't run away, so bring it back and try it out first. When you have a mount in the future, this distance will be nothing.
Coming out of the salt mine, Xu Xin looked towards the inside of the hill again. The red dots on the map were still densely packed. He decided to climb up a small hill without any red dots to see the situation first. After all, the higher you stand, the farther you can see.
"Let's go, Coco, and climb the mountain."
Choosing a small hill over a hundred meters high, Xu Xin began to climb up the slope of the hill which was covered with bushes and trees, while Coco jumped directly onto Xu Xin's shoulders.
"You little lazy bastard."
"Hmm~" Coco changed her posture. The hard iron sheet on Xu Xin's shoulder made her feel a little uncomfortable.
Soon, Xu Xin climbed to the top of the hill and looked towards the other side.
"Huh?"
I saw that there were indeed many wild beasts on the other side of the hills. This area was like a basin surrounded by a circular mountain range. There was a very flat area in the middle and a small lake in the center. Various birds and beasts appeared from time to time.
Moreover, this area was actually emitting green light everywhere, dotted with blue dots.
"A new resource area!" Xu Xin's eyes lit up. "And it looks like the entire resource area is within the protection of the tree house!"
"Wait, what is that?"
Xu Xin squinted his eyes and looked into the distance. There was an area emitting a more conspicuous blue light.
There were several relatively thick and tall trees in front of the blue light. Even though Xu Xin was standing a hundred meters high, he still couldn't see clearly what they were. He only saw several tall stone pillars exposed over there, and there was a stone statue on the top of each stone pillar.
The statue seemed to be carved of some kind of animal, but it was too far away for Xu Xin to see clearly.
"Is that some special building?" Xu Xin felt a little itchy. After all, he had only seen this kind of conspicuous light in the black bear cave and his own tree house. The black bear cave had a green light, while the tree house had a purple light.
It must be a special place.
"Another survivor's treehouse?" Xu Xin speculated, then dismissed it. "Impossible. There are wild beasts all around here, and it's clearly a stone building."
Why don’t you go and take a look?
