It was the ninth day.

Lin Qianxing used the saved water to eat a meal of stone pot pork slices.

Although there was no salt or seasoning, he still moved himself.

Lin Qianxing drank up all the broth.

Now he is only one day away from completing his first achievement.

Life is getting better and better.

He also made a new pair of shoes for himself before that.

The entire shoe is made of wood, and is filled with some fine fiber fleece made from processed shrub bark to reduce friction. It's hard to say how comfortable it is, but it's certainly more durable than the original shoes woven with vines and other materials.

Lin Qianxing’s only problem now is that he hasn’t found a way to improve his attributes.

Lin Qianxing could understand strength, physical strength and mental spirit, and knew that they could be improved through exercise.

The planting properties may depend on planting, which he has not tried yet.

The same is true for domestication.

But the construction is different.

He has made so many tools and even bought a house, so why isn't there any improvement at all?

Lin Qianxing seemed rather confused.

After some thought, Lin Qianxing wondered if what he created was not recognized by the game system itself.

Or... if he wants to improve his attributes, he needs to start with other people.

This is not groundless speculation.

Among the achievements, there is an achievement called [Flourishing].

The condition for its achievement is that the ethnic population reaches one million.

Lin Qianxing has reason to believe that the core focus of this game is not playing alone, but interacting with other people.

Of course, all of this is just speculation, and Lin Qianxing cannot get any confirmation for the time being. He can only consider these things after he has the ability to go back. For now, he should just live his own life well.

Soon, another day passed.

On the night of the tenth day, a system prompt appeared in front of Lin Qianxing.

[Hint: You have achieved the achievement [Ten Days], and the reward has been issued. [Note: Difficult survival?]]

[Reward: Bean Seeds*10.]

In the void, ten seeds that looked like transparent glass beads appeared.

Lin Qianxing stretched out his hand and they appeared in the palm of his hand.

[Ball Bean Seeds [White Ordinary (Ultimate)]: A fast-growing, sun-loving, and high-yielding staple agricultural seed. [Ultimate Skill: Sunlight Absorption.]]

[Sunlight absorption: The bulb beans can absorb a large amount of sunlight and convert it into growth nutrients.]

Lin Qianxing’s eyes widened.

Ultimate?

A level above excellent?

And there is also a supreme skill.

Do all things of this grade have such skills?

So can he make items of this quality?

Lin Qianxing seemed to have finally found the extraordinary side of this world.

He took the bean seeds, looked at them carefully, and thought about how to plant them.

Judging from the situation, this thing doesn't seem to be afraid of being exposed to the sun.

In other words, can it be planted directly outside?

Lin Qianxing thought about it and decided that he could build a higher farmland outside his cave and plant two trees on an experiment basis.

If this method of planting doesn't work, go back and try another method.

He did what he said. Taking advantage of the night, Lin Qianxing dug stones and soil and built a four-meter-high platform outside the cave.

At this height, the plant will not be easily destroyed by ordinary animals. At the same time, Lin Qianxing also ensured that it is sun-loving, so it will definitely be exposed to the sun as long as there is sunshine.

Doesn't the introduction say that it likes the sun very much? And there is also a supreme skill called [Sunlight Absorption].

This thing won't be damaged by the sun, right?

It doesn’t matter if they are damaged by the sun. He will only plant two this time and will come back and slowly figure out the planting method for the rest.

After building the platform, Lin Qianxing filled it with soil that had dried into sand, and randomly buried two ball bean seeds in it.

He wanted to water the plants, but when he thought about how little water he had, he gave up.

Go ahead and expose yourself to the sun, forget it when you die!

Want water? Impossible!!!

He also wants to have another meal of boiled pork slices!

That being said, Lin Qianxing is actually in a desperate situation due to water shortage.

He always had just enough water, never a bit more, which really put him in a difficult position.

Lin Qianxing walked down the road from the planting platform and returned to his water collection room.

There is a large stone jar here at this time.

But there was not even one tenth of the water in it.

Lin Qianxing usually drinks water as sparingly as possible and has thus accumulated this little amount.

If there is more, there will be none.

Looking at the dripping mountain wall, Lin Qianxing began to think.

The cave as a whole is actually a slope with a large angle.

The entrance of the cave is close to the ground, while the dripping water is at least six or seven meters deep underground.

Lin Qianxing has studied the structure here . He feels that the water is stored in a certain space inside the mountain. Now because of some cracks inside, it is seeping out little by little.

He actually wanted to see how much water there was at the source, or to make the seepage hole wider to make it easier to get water.

But Lin Qianxing never dared to do it because he was worried that if he didn't do it properly, all the water would leak out at once, and then there would be no water left.

But it’s not a good thing to keep doing this.

He has to find a way to solve this problem.

Lin Qianxing spent some time renovating the water intake room.

On the night of planting the beans, he lit a torch that was smeared with a little white-scale animal fat and mixed with wood wool, and began to work by the light of the fire.

He used a stone draft to knock open the stone wall bit by bit. He did not dare to use the special power of nature to destroy it piece by piece, but he chiseled it bit by bit to ensure the integrity of the mountain as much as possible.

He was afraid that if he accidentally opened the hole wider, a flood would rush out and all the water would leak out, which would give him a headache.

Although he did not use the special features of the Hand of Heaven, Lin Qianxing's movements were still quite quick.

By the middle of the night, it had advanced about one meter.

Compared to the Hand of God, it is indeed much slower, but this kind of thing cannot be done in a rush.

So it’s okay to go slow.

He worked until dawn, then stopped.

Unable to work during the day, Lin Qianxing could only sleep.

The day passed quickly. After eating, Lin Qianxing went to look at the ball bean seeds on the planting platform.

Then he was completely stunned.

Because there are now two green plants about thirty centimeters high.

It grew so tall after only one day of sun exposure?

This thing is worthy of being an achievement reward.

Lin Qianxing showed a look of delight and began to look forward to the results it would give.

At night, as usual, I went out through the underground passage to collect materials and food, and also repaired the road at the same time.

Now Lin Qianxing's activity distance has reached more than 500 meters.

He had eaten most of the low bushes, and he also found some other materials such as stones underground, but he was not sure whether there were metal ores, so he had to search further.

Unfortunately, apart from the low shrubs around, Lin Qianxing only found some weeds, and the rest of the plants did not grow here at all.

He felt that he might have to consider artificial cultivation in the future.

In addition, apart from the white-scaled beast and the snake, Lin Qianxing has not encountered any other suitable prey recently.

He had seen two strange beasts flying in the sky, but he couldn't shoot them down now and could only watch.

After collecting supplies, Lin Qianxing came back and started digging the wall.

His excavations in recent days have been fruitful.

As he dug, the water seeped in more efficiently.

It used to take a long time for a drop of water to fall, but now you can hear the dripping sound with almost every breath.

It was the fifteenth day.

The two ball beans planted by Lin Qianxing have grown to more than two meters tall, with branches as thick as his arms, and covered with extremely tiny white flowers.

After considering whether or not to conduct artificial pollination, Lin Qianxing chose to let it go.

Sometimes, if you don’t understand, don’t interfere.

He chose to trust the system.

Facts proved that Lin Qianxing was right.

On the sixth day after planting the beans, the flowers withered and thumb-sized green fruits grew. There were a lot of them, at least hundreds of them on one bean plant.

On the seventeenth day, Lin Qianxing felt quite weak.

This was caused by his unbalanced diet.

Plus the lack of some trace elements, even though he eats meat every day, his overall health is actually in a bit of a decline.

That night, when Lin Qianxing was digging the leaking stone wall of the water intake room, he suddenly heard the sound of rushing water.

At this moment, he wondered if he had heard it wrongly.

Then he immediately made a receiver out of wood and moved closer to the stone wall to listen carefully.

Then Lin Qianxing discovered that he had not heard wrong.

Through the stone wall, he could indeed hear the sound of rushing water.

He guessed wrong!!

It is not an enclosed space for storing water.

It's an underground river!!

There are no plants anywhere around, only here are some bushes.

They can't possibly grow purely by sunlight like the beans do?

So they must have access to water.

As for whether the roots are deep enough?

Among the plants growing on the surface these days, which one has short roots?

There are many plants with roots longer than this low shrub, but there is obviously a reason why plants grow here.

Thinking of this, Lin Qianxing immediately became excited.

He measured the distance between the sound and himself, and after making sure that he would not dig directly to the bottom of the river, he continued to work hard.

The excellent stone draft keeps waving.

Finally, Lin Qianxing dug through the stone wall with one stroke.

Crash~!

The waves hit, splashing a streak of water onto Lin Qianxing's cheek.

Faced with this splash of water, Lin Qianxing was not afraid, but was extremely happy.

He finally knew where the water here came from.

It turned out that the underground river hit the stone wall and some of the water seeped over to his side.

This way, everything makes sense.

Lin Qianxing used the faint light of the fire to figure out the situation inside and began to enlarge the hole.

Soon, Lin Qianxing opened a hole in the water intake room.

He knelt on his right leg on a wooden prosthesis, stood at the edge of the cave, holding a torch in his hand and looking forward.

There is a turbulent underground river, and the splashing water can even hit places five or six meters high when it flows.
