When he woke up, Lu Ning lay on the ground and sniffed, feeling that his brain was a little dazed.

It was really not a good night's sleep. Not only did I not get enough rest, I was also a bit cold - even if there was a campfire nearby, lying on the ground to sleep in a drafty ruin for a night was really not a good choice.

He got up from the ground, but this simple movement took a lot of effort.

After what happened yesterday and not eating or drinking, his body is now extremely weak and he is very haggard.

At this time, I felt extremely sore in my muscles even if I moved even a little bit, and my strength was severely lost.

Not only was my stomach aching from hunger, but I was also feeling thirsty in my throat.

"...I have to eat something to replenish my strength first, otherwise I might not even be able to get up tomorrow."

Lu Ning rubbed his belly and raised his body up with difficulty. Lu Ning casually added a handful of straw to the campfire, and the fire became bright again.

Being hungry made him recall some things.

"I vaguely remember that when I first came here two months ago, the 'warden' said that there was some food in the house that he put here..."

Lu Ning carefully recalled the rules he heard back then.

After all, he has been hanging in the sky for the past two months, and he can no longer remember that long paragraph clearly.

But a little impression was enough. He remembered this and looked for it himself.

It's just that the roof of this shabby house has no shielding function, and the floor is now completely buried under the thick snow. Looking for work has almost exhausted Lu Ning's little physical strength.

Finally, he pulled out two pieces of bread that were very hard to the touch from the snow in a corner of the shabby house.

This gave him a bad feeling.

Is this still edible?

He forced down his premonition, picked up the bread, paused, and then gnawed it hard.

I'm laughing so hard, I can't even bite it.

Lu Ning sighed and threw the bread along the crack in the wall out of the house.

——The cracks in this wall can lead to bread. Do you think this house must be very dilapidated?

Then Lu Ning thought for a while and grabbed a handful of snow from beside him.

Eating some snow can fill your stomach to a certain extent and relieve your thirsty throat.

"After all, this is a place that has not been polluted by industry. The snow is probably, probably, barely edible..."

Lu Ning balled the snow into a snowball, tried hard to imagine it as a ball of ice cream full of calories, and then bit into it hard.

In fact, regardless of whether it is polluted or not, it is definitely not wise to eat snow directly.

After all, snowflakes themselves are a collection of various impurities, dust and germs.

But he really can't care about that much right now.

If you had a pot or something like that, you could put it on the campfire and boil it before drinking, but obviously there's no such thing as that right now.

Lu Ning swallowed the snow hungrily, and a cold air flowed from his mouth down his esophagus into his stomach, making him tremble all over.

His empty and shriveled stomach was slightly stretched, giving him the illusion that he was full.

Of course, it was just an illusion. Apart from moistening his throat and making the dry mouth feel disappear, the snow water hardly restored his physical strength at all.

On the contrary, there was still an uncomfortable feeling rising in my stomach.

Where else can I find some food?

Just as Lu Ning's eyes fell outside the broken house, hesitating whether to try to conquer the loaf of bread he threw out, he heard a long bird call from above his head, and then a warm milky white lump fell from the sky.

On the bread.

Okay, no need to hesitate now.

No, wait, now may not be the time to be pretentious... Although, this is not the time to be pretentious...

Lu Ning scratched his head and suddenly saw a strange solid in the pile of bird droppings.

The birds eat the seeds that are not fully digested.

seed?

yes!

Lu Ning was like filling a pot with cakes, and slapped himself hard on the head.

He was bound by the sight of the wind and snow that quickly covered the earth and killed countless creatures in the roar he saw with his own eyes.

This was not a normal winter, but a sudden cold disaster. The animals had no time to hibernate and return to their nests, and the plants did not decay naturally.

Even if the cold disaster comes and the plants and trees die, their seeds and fruits will not disappear.

Under this endless blanket of snow, there should be many frozen wild animals and well-preserved plant fruits.

As long as you follow the dead plants and look for them, you should be able to find a lot of edible things.

Just do it, Lu Ning opened the door and walked out.

However, as soon as he took two steps, the howling cold wind immediately made him realize the reality.

He was able to survive until now only because of this campfire.

If he stayed away from the campfire, he would immediately be back in the same situation as yesterday, or he would freeze to death in less than an hour.

Considering the impact of the cold on the body, Lu Ning estimated that he would have to go back to the campfire every half hour or so to warm himself up.

Calculated this way, the distance he can actually walk is not very long. It is basically just a small circle near the broken house, and he can't even get out of the mountain.

But the advantage of Lu Ning is that he will do it when he thinks of it, just like when he thought of drilling wood to make fire before, he tried it: no matter whether it works or not, whether he knows it or not, what is the probability of success... do it first and then talk about it.

Lu Ning pulled a bundle of thatch from the roof, centered on the ruined house, and used the thatch to sweep the snow away layer by layer, revealing the dark brown land below.

Just cleaning and warming up by the fire, he relied on his perseverance to work from morning to night, and finally cleaned a large circle around the shabby house.

Of course, since the snow kept falling, another layer of snowflakes fell on the area he cleared out - but it was still better than before.

Due to his empty stomach, Lu Ning's physical strength was consumed rapidly.

When it was time to finish work in the evening, he almost crawled back.

My legs were shaking and I couldn't even lift my hands.

My stomach also felt like it was being grabbed hard, twisting and aching, and acid refluxed into my throat.

But the hard work paid off, and at the end of the day, Lu Ning's harvest even exceeded his own expectations.

Not only did he collect dozens of seeds of various types and from unknown plants, he also cleared out several bushes that were crushed under the snow.

On each plant, there are five or six berries hanging, although they have been frozen for a long time, but they are still bright red and attractive.

Lu Ning collected the fruits from one of the berry bushes and roasted them by the campfire.

"Spaceship, will it be okay if you eat this?"

Lu Ning asked the ship casually.

He had not expected that the ship could reply to his question, because he had said a lot to the ship that day, but never got a reply.

He believed that the other party either lacked energy because he had been hanging in the universe for too long, or that he was not intelligent enough to allow him to talk to him.

But unexpectedly, this time the ship actually replied:

"The fruit is harmless to the captain and can be eaten."

Lu Ning was greatly surprised and at the same time relieved, he couldn't wait to pick up a warm berry and bit it hard.

It melts in your mouth, fills your mouth with fragrance, and is particularly filling.

Lu Ning, who had been hungry for a long time, wolfed down three fruits, and then looked at the remaining berries in confusion.

"How about eating another one... No, you have to plan carefully, keep the water steady, and don't eat too much in one sitting. A 50% full meal is enough. I think I can last for about ten days."

Lu Ning reluctantly put away the remaining berries, feeling the gradually recovering strength and filling of her stomach, she narrowed her eyes with satisfaction.

Calculating the time, the new "materials" for the ship will be processed soon.

The last supply saved him from the danger of freezing to death and helped him rekindle the campfire.

What surprise will you give yourself this time?
