Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 499: Survival and Life
Lin Qianxing didn't eat too much, just enough to feel 60% to 70% full. He put the rest of the meat into the material warehouse for storage.
Although food seemed sufficient at present, he remembered that he had to survive for ten days to complete the first achievement mission.
So the current task is to survive ten days before considering other things.
After eating, Lin Qianxing felt a little thirsty again.
He returned to the wall of the cave where the water came.
There was half a bowl of water in the bowl again.
Although the water here is not abundant, it is inexhaustible and is barely enough for him to drink.
When I come back and recover my strength, I can open up a path to see where the water comes from and whether I can get more water out.
Picking up the bowl and drinking it all, Lin Qianxing put the bowl back to its original place and began to rest.
Lin Qianxing slept until noon the next day.
He was awakened by a gust of hot wind.
Even though he was deep in the cave, there was still some hot wind blowing under the bright sunlight outside.
After waking up, Lin Qianxing looked at the stone bowl for collecting water first.
It was full, even overflowing.
Lin Qianxing slapped his head and felt that he was not thinking carefully enough when he was hungry.
I should have used stone buckets to collect water earlier. The extra water is a waste!!
But it is never too late to mend the situation.
Lin Qianxing drank some of the water in the stone bowl, then hurriedly took out a stone bucket with his bare hands to get some water. Then he nodded with satisfaction and leaned against the wall to take a rest.
A little hot wind blew into the cave, making Lin Qianxing think about the living environment here.
He felt that perhaps he should dig a little deeper to make the temperature of the living environment more suitable.
Do it when you think of it.
But before that, you need to eat something.
Taking out the leftover meat from last night from the material warehouse, Lin Qianxing cut it with a stone knife, then picked it up bit by bit with wooden chopsticks and started eating.
Soon, Lin Qianxing ate it all.
After digesting a little, Lin Qianxing came to the kitchen that he had cleaned out yesterday. This place was close to the outside for ventilation reasons, and now it was like a steamer.
Lin Qianxing originally planned to dig out a storage room here. After all, this is the kitchen, and any ingredients he needed could be taken directly from the spot. Now it seems that this consideration was not thoughtful.
He retreated deeper into the cave and decided to dig down next to the former slaughter room.
After taking out the stone draft, Lin Qianxing began to work.
Soon, he carved out a bedroom next to the slaughter room.
The temperature here is much more suitable, at least not so hot.
Lin Qianxing made a stone bed with his bare hands, took out a stone pillow and the leather armor of a white-scaled beast from the material warehouse, lay directly on the bed, covered his belly with the leather armor and began to rest.
He doesn't have much physical and mental strength now, so he has to try his best to survive. As for things like studying blueprints, materials are scarce now, and his understanding of the Heavenly Hand system is still superficial, so he can't create too many variables for the time being.
Lin Qianxing slept until the evening.
After waking up, he felt a little urgent, and then he remembered that he still lacked a toilet, so he temporarily built another toilet next to the bedroom.
After solving the personal hygiene problem, Lin Qianxing went to check the water supply of the stone bucket. At the end of the day, there was only one layer of water left in the stone bucket, which was almost one and a half bowls of water.
It’s not much, but it’s just enough.
After rubbing a wooden straw with his hands and drinking some water, Lin Qianxing began to think about going out tonight.
His right leg was injured and he couldn't walk very far.
If you want better activities nowadays, you must use tools.
car?
Stone cart?
Wooden cart?
Lin Qianxing currently only has these two materials to use.
Well, maybe soil is one of them.
But Nitu Lin Qianxing thought about it and PASSED.
It's not like he hasn't tried.
But tools made of clay are not suitable for use at all.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Qianxing decided to make a wooden cart.
However, due to material reasons, it cannot be made too large.
The wheels could be a bit bigger.
As for the transmission method, Lin Qianxing chose gears plus wooden chains.
When the time comes, just shake it with both hands, he doesn't even have to walk.
The only problem is that the wear rate will definitely be very high, and there is also the problem of shock absorption.
High wear and tear is a small matter. We can just manufacture it based on the drawings, and if it breaks, it breaks.
You can just use it as a consumable.
Just do it when you think of it. Lin Qianxing once even created a Gundam in the game. How could he not be able to make a mere hand-cranked gear bicycle?
Soon, Lin Qianxing used a stone knife to carve out a hand-cranked wooden cart.
It is a three-wheeler, and the radius of the wheels is about thirty centimeters.
After Lin Qianxing swayed and walked for a while inside the expanded cave, he expressed that he was quite satisfied.
However, this thing can move smoothly on flat ground. If it were on a different surface, even if it was a plain, Lin Qianxing would feel that it would not work well.
Building roads is imperative.
At that time, he will build it directly underground, making it interconnected, and leave a stone platform on the surface that only he can break open. No one else can get in, only he can go in and out.
But I'll have to wait until I have some spare energy before considering it.
Now he is still struggling on the edge of survival. Although building roads will benefit future generations, it consumes a lot of physical strength. I am afraid that this amount of food will not be enough to sustain him.
As time passed, night fell.
Lin Qianxing drank some water and then set off again.
This time he set out on a bicycle.
The three-wheeled wooden cart was slightly bumpy as it moved, but Lin Qianxing was not moving too fast, and the terrain here was relatively flat, so it was not a problem for him.
Soon he came to the place where the thorns were yesterday.
As usual, it was picking fruits and chopping wood materials.
Because of making the stone axe, Lin Qianxing collected more berries and wood materials today.
We walked further, but unfortunately we didn't encounter the second white-scaled beast.
He didn't dare go too far. If he went any further, this crappy wooden car might not have the performance to support off-road driving.
Then he returned to the cave, closed the door and began to cook the white-scaled beast's meat.
Today is not like yesterday. He is not so hungry anymore, so he can roast it slowly so that it won’t be too burnt and lose too many nutrients.
Three hours later, Lin Qianxing ate the golden barbecue.
The corners of his mouth curled up, his cooking skills were still so amazing.
One never tires of fine food. Lin Qianxing picked up a stone knife and cut the barbecue on the wooden chopping board before eating it slowly.
Although there was a lack of seasoning, his cooking skills were good, and the meat of the white-scaled beast was of good quality and not tough, so he ate it with relish.
Of course, most importantly, he was hungry!
As usual, I only ate until I was 70% full, and saved the remaining barbecue for lunch tomorrow.
Then Lin Qianxing returned to the bedroom, took out a piece of wood, and started writing and drawing on it with a charcoal pencil.
He was thinking about what to do next and at the same time coming up with some new drawings.
Although there are only two kinds of production materials now and we cannot carry out major scientific research, we can still optimize the original drawings.
For example, a stone dredge with a wooden handle can reduce weight, allowing him to spend less energy while digging.
Isn’t this a great idea?
By the same token, wood and stone complement each other. Use wood where wood can be used, and use stone where stone can be used. Many drawings can be redesigned.
On the third day, Lin Qianxing carried out the same activities as usual on the day before. He also made some repairs inside the cave to make it more spacious. In addition, Lin Qianxing was worried about the possibility of landslides, so he added some pillars in key places and found a way to reinforce it with stones.
It's the fourth day.
The wound on Lin Qianxing's broken foot seemed to be a little itchy.
This made Lin Qianxing feel relieved.
This means the wound is starting to heal.
It's really a blessing that I have a strong body.
He just treated it casually and there was no inflammation inside. Otherwise, he felt that he would have to reopen the hospital under such circumstances.
But then again, the fact that it can survive in this environment proves its adaptability.
So the performance of this body was within Lin Qianxing's expectations.
By the fifth day, Lin Qianxing's condition had stabilized and he had eaten all the nearby bushes.
He has already begun trying to build a road underground.
According to the current situation, it should be safe to survive for ten days.
The only thing that made Lin Qianxing feel a little uncomfortable was that he tried many methods of cultivation, but none of them worked.
It seems that there is no possibility of practicing in this world?
If this were true, then his travels would be many times more difficult.
On the seventh day, Lin Qianxing finally dug out a road underground that led directly to the bush forest.
This is thanks to his newly created stone draft.
An excellent grade stone draft with a wooden handle.
[Stone Draft [White Ordinary (Excellent)]: An excellent stone draft with strong digging ability.]
This is an item of a higher level than the excellent level that Lin Qianxing discovered.
In front of this stone draft, just two clicks will make a piece of stone disappear.
Lin Qianxing didn't waste any effort at all and easily opened up a path.
Because the materials can be obtained one piece at a time by the Hand of God, the gaps between the materials are extremely smooth, so the road underground is also extremely flat. Lin Qianxing rocked his wooden cart in it and it was so stable, much more comfortable than on the ground.
Go forward all the way, then there is a small slope. Going up the slope, you will encounter a platform that is blocked.
Lin Qianxing tapped the stone a few times with the stone draft, and the stone turned into small stones floating in the air, and a blue moon appeared in the sky.
Shaking the wooden cart, Lin Qianxing's body came out from underground and came to the bushes, leisurely fiddling with the fruits inside.
He now has to pick and choose. He doesn't even look down on the B-grade fruits that are too small. He will only pick the ones that are at least of A-grade or above.
As for the others, just take care of them first.
What stands out is a leisurely stroll.
For others in this environment, it is called survival, but for him, it is called life.
“Hiss, hiss, hiss~!”
Suddenly, Lin Qianxing heard a slight hissing sound in his ears. He reacted quickly and raised his hand to smash out a piece of stone.
Boom~!
The hissing sound then disappeared.
Afterwards, Lin Qianxing knocked off the stone with a draft and found a brown scaly snake under the stone.
It was already flattened at this point.
Lin Qianxing didn't know whether it was poisonous or not, so he didn't dare to eat it, but he still put it in the warehouse.
Even if we can't eat it, snake skin and bones can at least be used, right?
