Normally, sand snakes are non-venomous, but this snake was unusually large, about four or five times larger than any sand snake Xi Xi knew. Not being a professional biologist, Xi Xi didn't dare make any definitive statements about the species. After properly handling the snake's head, she hung the heavy body around her neck, grabbed the wooden treasure chest, and quickly got into the car.

Compared to the previous intermediate treasure chest, the supplies in the beginner treasure chest were almost halved. However, Xi Xi was not disappointed at all and happily took out the small iron pot from it.
Good heavens, it's like someone handed you a pillow when you're sleepy. "You're in luck!" she said, patting the snake meat, already having a recipe in mind.
But Xi Xi still hadn't forgotten how the stone treasure chest had vanished into thin air after she emptied it. Now the gasoline had been automatically loaded, and the small iron pot had been taken out. Only bottled water remained in the three equal spaces of the beginner treasure chest. With no other choice, Xi Xi took out the nail clipper set that had received extra system bonuses floating on top, leaving only the bundle of two bottles of drinking water.
Xi Xi thought for a moment, then tried putting the snake meat hanging around her neck into the chest. Watching the snake's tail slowly enter the chest and finally disappear completely, Xi Xi couldn't help but exclaim, "Wow, it really works!" This must be a game bug, right?! As long as one of the original items in the chest is retained, the chest will never disappear, and you can even put other things inside!
"Isn't this a storage cabinet?" Xi Xi's interest was piqued, her eyes sparkling with the enthusiasm to explore the unknown. An unprecedented idea quietly surfaced in her mind. She pondered for a moment, then tore off a corner of a tissue, picked up the snake meat, and dripped the overflowing snake blood onto it. Immediately, the blood spread. Xi Xi placed the small piece of paper stained with fresh snake blood into the remaining compartment of the beginner treasure chest.
She needs to validate an idea.
After finishing this task, Xi Xi started the car again. Perhaps driven by her curiosity to explore the unknown, Xi Xi felt much lighter. Whether it was because of her good fortune or because she had learned from her experience, she paid special attention to the things along the roadside in addition to the road itself. Less than half an hour later, Xi Xi found a wooden beginner treasure chest by the roadside, half buried in the yellow sand and half exposed to the air.

"..." The moment the treasure chest was opened, all the gasoline was automatically loaded. As a result, Xi Xi felt the scalding hot treasure chest in her hands disappear before her eyes.
"Good heavens, a kong!" Xi Xi said, laughing and crying at the same time. She had never experienced such an extraordinary encounter of drawing the same tile four times in mahjong, but she actually ran into it here.
Xi Xi had initially thought the somewhat heavy treasure chest might contain some rare items, but it seemed she had overestimated the basic treasure chest. Just as she was about to continue on her way, Xi Xi seemed to keenly sense something again, and an inexplicable guess surged into her mind, causing her to pause in her actions.
"Wait, heavy?" She clearly remembered that the first stone treasure chest was quite light, and she had easily carried it back to the car.
Without a second thought, Xi Xi quickly summoned the light screen and zoomed in on the data in her personal profile, afraid of missing any detail. Sure enough, [Stamina: 8], her stamina had dropped to single digits at some point. Frowning, Xi Xi exited the personal interface and returned to the public chat.
"I've entered the desert! Oh my god... there's a desert to the east of China?"
"Baby, this is already the game world... Accept reality."
"Just entered the desert? That's too slow! I sped all the way in and entered the desert before noon!"
"Can you young people please stop calling people 'baby' everywhere? It's disgusting."
"How many boxes have you found? I haven't seen a single one yet. Is this normal?"
...
Xi Xi glanced out the car window. As the afternoon light faded, the blazing sun that had hung high in the sky was no longer as scorching as it had been at midday. She had expended too much time and energy collecting wood and stone today, enduring the scorching sun's rays. While her progress wasn't as slow as some people on the public chat had described, it was certainly not fast. And given the current situation, it was highly likely she would have to stop here for the day. Her strength was waning; she dared not and could not afford to take any more risks.
Luo Shiping: "Save me!"
Luo Shiping: "Help!"
Suddenly, a series of SOS messages appeared on the public screen, interrupting Xi Xi's thoughts.
Feng Lijuan (Ji): "What's wrong? What happened?"
Luo Shiping: "Please save me, I beg you!"
Lai Suqiang (Ping): "What happened?"
Wang Xiao : "?"
Luo Shi (Ping): "I encountered a giant lizard, and now I'm hiding behind the sand and rocks, what should I do?"
Lai Suqiang (Ping): "If you can't beat them, run away!"
Luo Shiping: "I was so scared, my legs were weak, and my hands were shaking. I couldn't run away."
Feng Lijuan (from the song "Ji"): "Take your time crawling back, or you'll die!"
The public chat immediately erupted with comments, everyone offering advice to the man named Luo Shi. But for some reason, he couldn't implement any of the methods; either his legs went weak and his limbs felt powerless, or his vision blurred and he couldn't see clearly. Xi Xi silently watched the chat without speaking. She was about to say something, but her heart skipped a beat, fearing that her speculation would shatter the fragile peace and attract more unnecessary attention and unknown dread. A bad premonition spread through her, and Xi Xi ultimately remained silent.
