The island was very large. Luo Xinglan and the other two were on a beach with an endless sea in front of them and a forest behind them.
To improve efficiency, it's better to explore them separately.
Jiang Zifeng suggested, "Let's create a group chat so we can post any unexpected situations there."
Luo Xinglan and Jiang Mingze naturally had no objections and both joined the team's group chat.
"Alright, then good luck to everyone."
Luo Xinglan left those words and turned to walk into the woods.
Jiang Mingze exclaimed, "Sister Lan is so cool!"
Jiang Zifeng ignored him and walked in the opposite direction from Luo Xinglan.
Jiang Mingze shrugged and walked towards the middle.
...
Luo Xinglan first used two energy potions to raise her energy to 90 before exploring along the path. The path was lined with trees and weeds, not at all the abundant resources she had imagined.
The path was very long and seemed to have no end. Luo Xinglan walked for nearly half an hour before finally emerging from the woods.
Ahead lies a valley, and as far as the eye can see, there is a colorful sea of flowers. A gentle breeze blows, and the fragrance of the flowers fills the air.
Despite the beautiful scenery, Luo Xinglan couldn't feel happy. Why were there no useful supplies at all?
She just wanted to find supplies!
Although my heart was roaring, I continued to walk forward, and only when I entered that sea of flowers did I discover that there was a hidden paradise inside!
Right in the middle of the sea of flowers, there was a low thatched hut!
Is there anyone here?
Luo Xinglan quickly dismissed the idea, suggesting it might just be a thatched hut.
She knocked on the door again, but there was no response.
It turned out to be just a thatched hut.
Luo Xinglan pushed open the door and entered, and was shocked when she saw the scene inside.
An elderly man who looked to be in his sixties was lying on the ground, with dark red stains beneath him and a large gash on his leg that looked like it had been torn by a wild animal, from which blood was flowing.
At the same time, a notification sound rang out:
[An unexpected surprise has been triggered! An island dungeon quest has been obtained!]
[Instance quest refreshed. Old Liu's request: Please help Old Liu fulfill his request. Quest reward: Pet Evolution Pill. Accept quest?]
What an unexpected surprise!
Luo Xinglan accepts the mission.
Her gaze fell on the person on the ground. He must be Uncle Liu, right?
She moved closer to Uncle Liu and asked softly, "Are you alright?"
Uncle Liu's eyes were tightly closed, his fate unknown. Although there was pain on his face, his kindness was undeniable.
Luo Xinglan's heart softened. Uncle Liu reminded her of her deceased grandfather, who always looked at her with a kind expression.
"Who are you?"
Uncle Liu slowly opened his eyes and asked weakly.
Luo Xinglan suppressed her feelings and said, "I came from the sea by boat, sir. Is there anything I can do to help you?"
Uncle Liu strained to open his eyes. "My surname is Liu. Child, I probably won't live much longer... There's a wild boar on the island that often harms small animals. This wound is from its bite..."
Uncle Liu looked at Luo Xinglan expectantly and asked, "Can you help me kill it? Otherwise, the other small animals on the island will suffer..."
Does that mean the dungeon quest is just about killing wild boars?
Luo Xinglan immediately agreed: "Okay, I will go and kill that wild boar."
Uncle Liu then said, "I also have a little mouse that I found a couple of days ago. It's too small and it definitely won't survive if it stays on the island. Could you please take care of it and raise it?"
mouse?
Luo Xinglan instinctively wanted to refuse. After all, rats are something that everyone hates. How could she possibly raise a rat?
But faced with Uncle Liu's eager gaze, the words that came out of her mouth were "okay".
Uncle Liu smiled with relief, "When the wild boar came, I hid the little mouse in the water tank in the backyard. I'm entrusting it to you from now on. You're a kind child, and you'll be blessed."
After saying that, he closed his eyes and stopped breathing. Then, his figure turned into a white light and quickly disappeared.
Luo Xinglan quickly arrived at the backyard and immediately saw the water vat that Uncle Liu had mentioned.
She lifted the lid and found that the ear mouse inside was not quite the grayish mouse she had imagined.
The ear-mouse in front of me was about the size of a kitten, with fur as white as snow and a long tail. The most eye-catching feature was its pair of large, round ears, which made me want to touch them.
At this moment, the little mouse was curled up in the water tank, its big, misty eyes looking at Luo Xinglan with wariness.
Luo Xinglan was almost melted by its adorable appearance and couldn't help but whisper, "Little Ear Mouse, Uncle Liu asked me to take care of you. Do you want to come with me?"
Upon hearing this, the little mouse's big eyes welled up with tears, and it said in a soft, cute voice, "Is Uncle Liu dead? I'll go with you, sister."
Luo Xinglan was startled; she hadn't expected that this ear-mouse could actually talk.
On second thought, since she had been thrown into this survival game, the fact that the ear-mouse could talk didn't seem so surprising.
She picked up the little mouse and said, "Okay, then I'll take you away from the island, but before that, I need to kill that harmful wild boar."
The little mouse said eagerly, "Sister, I'll take you to find it! I know where it is!"
Luo Xinglan asked, "You know? How could you know?"
The little mouse twitched its nose: "My nose is very sensitive, I can smell its scent! It's in a cave a kilometer away from here!"
Luo Xinglan nodded, "Okay, then take me there."
Guided by the little ear mouse, Luo Xinglan arrived at the cave entrance.
The cave entrance is small and surrounded by weeds, so you can't find the secrets inside without careful observation.
The little mouse looked at the cave and said angrily, "Sister, it's inside!"
Luo Xinglan wasn't entirely confident either. It was a wild boar, after all. Although she had a weapon, she had never used a longbow before. What if her aim was too bad and she missed the target entirely?
We can't fight head-on; we have to outsmart them.
After thinking for a moment, she sent a message in the team chat: "Jiang Mingze, did you bring a lighter?"
Jiang Mingze replied, "I brought it! And my luck is just unbelievable. I've come all the way to the island and haven't found any food. Instead, I found a bunch of useless stuff, like a kitchen knife, a fruit knife, gasoline, mosquito coils..."
Luo Xinglan's eyes lit up: "You found gasoline? Let me use it, and a lighter too! Pass me the kitchen knife too! I'll give you food when we get back!"
Jiang Mingze is really something else; he even managed to find gasoline, which is exactly what she needs right now!
And then there's the kitchen knife. There's a saying that even the best martial arts master is afraid of a kitchen knife. Having a kitchen knife is better than not having one.
The next moment, Jiang Mingze gave her gasoline, a kitchen knife, a fruit knife, and a lighter.
Luo Xinglan put down the ear mouse: "Wait for me a moment, I'll go pick up some dry branches."
There are plenty of dry branches around here, perfect for starting a fire.
