Seeing that everyone had gathered together, Li Tianjia said, "The most important thing is food, followed by safety, and thirdly rest. We don't know the day and night cycle here yet, but be prepared. Ye Shan."
Li Tianjia called a girl's name. If Li Tianjia is the leader of this small group, then Ye Shan is the eldest sister of the girls in this group. She is a top student among the current graduates and is well-known in the school.
Moreover, he is upright and straightforward, and is also the vice-president of the student union on campus. If it were not for his petite stature, which would not give people enough sense of security in this environment, he would also be the best choice for a leader. "Okay, let me tell you," Ye Shan said nervously.
Then Li Tianjia said, "River water is still the main source of drinking water. Although there is a lot...but it is living water, and those things are not rotten yet. We can take the water and boil it, which can solve the drinking water problem, but here is
We need water containers and water boiling utensils. As for food..." Ye Shan grabbed a plant with yellow stems and leaves at her feet and pulled it up with great difficulty. "Help me."
After discovering that she was not strong enough, she asked the boys for help. The two boys immediately stepped forward and uprooted the plant with her. Only seven or eight long stems were connected to the roots of the plant. "This plant is called Solanum japonicus."
, according to the records of lower plant knowledge, its rhizomes can be eaten directly."
As she spoke, she split a rhizome from the middle to let everyone see the inside of the rhizome. "Why does it look a bit like a yam?"
"Your yam is so long..." A boy broke off a piece and tasted it. "What does it taste like?"
Everyone stared at his expression. "It's not unpalatable, it's a little sweet, and it tastes like sweet potatoes."
The boy thought about it and took the remaining part into his mouth. "This is one of the food sources. In addition, this plant that is half a person tall and has a wisp of green leaves at the top is called Artemisia annua. Its
The rhizomes are also edible, and there is also a plant with blue finger-sized fruits called Paidimei. The fruits can be eaten directly. There are also some in the woods."
Ye Shan looked at the woods in the distance with some hesitation in her eyes. "I'm warning everyone that in addition to the plants I mentioned, many plants are dangerous. They are not just poisonous, but they are aggressive."
"ah?"
"What the hell? Attacking plants?"
"Yes, it's about aggression. Although we only know about the lower plants nearby, some of these lower-level plants also have the ability to attack people. For example, there is a plant called Wood Tears, which should have a charm on the branch.
A bit like a creeper, it secretes venom to animals on the ground. This venom falls from a high place and falls on the animal, corroding the animal's fur. If the toxin falls on the eyes, the eyes will be directly corroded and cause blindness.
"
Ye Shan said solemnly. "The wood tears I am talking about should be considered the most threatening plants among the lower plants. There are also some that can only slightly hurt animals of our size. As for what will happen above the lower plants, now
Unable to assess. So, if you want to enter the woods later, you must be careful.”
"Perhaps because of the huge number of humans teleported here, the lower animals nearby have basically hid in the woods. Therefore, before entering the woods, except for aquatic animals, it may be difficult for us to see animals that can be used as food."
"As for the issue of rest, let me talk about the basic law of Origin. Day and night also alternate here, but the time when day and night alternates is not
It’s not 24 hours, but close to 336 hours, that is to say, a day here is half a month of Earth time, and the day here is a week of Earth time.”
"wtf!?"
"Doesn't that mean we have to sleep during the day?"
"The evil capitalist has finally figured out the ultimate solution to 996!"
"Let Ye Shan finish speaking first."
Li Tianjia interrupted everyone's complaints at the right time. "I continued, on earth, sleeping is for the body and brain to rest, to allow cerebrospinal fluid to enter the brain and discharge metabolites and toxins, but here, sleeping should have other purposes. Because.
Our body structure is different from the original one. As for what the difference is, I can’t answer this question at the moment.”
Although everyone was a little surprised, they did not continue to dwell on this issue. After all, there were too many unknowns in a short period of time, which greatly improved their ability to accept. During the process of Ye Shan's explanation, Liu Xiao was also paying attention to the movements of other surrounding groups. "
We need to act immediately."
Liu Xiao interrupted Ye Shan, although it was a bit rude. He pointed to some people a hundred meters away, "Look over there, they have started to collect food."
Everyone looked in the direction of Liu Xiao's finger. Sure enough, there were hundreds of people bending down, purposefully looking for something in the grass. Some people were even pulling out plants one by one, which were clearly Artemisia annua.
Many of these people are carrying hoes and shovels. These tools have greatly improved their efficiency. "Although this grassland is large, it is certainly not enough to feed millions of people. We must grab
Collect as much food as possible before more people start."
Liu Xiao's words are not alarmist, but cruel reality. "To put it bluntly, if we want to survive where we are, we must do everything faster than others. If we compete with the vast majority of people for resources, otherwise, we will have no advantage.
The living space will be compressed little by little."
This principle does not come from life, but from Liu Xiao's rich gaming experience. When the well-known domestic online games that attracted much attention were first launched, millions of people poured into the server at the same time and crowded into the novice village.
They compete for a few resources, tasks, and monsters. Sometimes they even have to fight for an hour just to kill each task monster. In contrast, those who quickly complete the tasks from the beginning, upgrade and leave the novice village
Players, they will widen the gap in level, equipment and strength with other players in a very short period of time, and accumulate these advantages until the end. In online games, Liu Xiao is the type of player who quickly rushes out of the novice village
, and he is often at the top of the game rankings. Li Tianjia also realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately began to assign tasks. "Zhou Peng, Cui Wei, you two get the engineer shovel. Huang Yuchen, Hu Le, you two each take the axe,
One holds the saw. Wu Dongquan, I need a container to hold water, the bigger the better. Tiger, you can get the fire stick, the kind used outdoors..." Tasks were arranged one by one, and the boys started one by one.
After choosing their own item rewards, the girls directly began to collect Padi plums. Until the end, including Li Tianjia himself, there were still 4 boys who were not assigned tasks, including Liu Xiao. The items were obtained very smoothly, and one
The props began to transform from imagination into real objects. Ye Shan began to assign tasks to everyone, and everyone became busy. At this time, Li Tianjia gathered together the four boys who had not been assigned tasks. "Boss, we
Not alive?"
The boy named Zhou Yuke asked with a smile. Apparently he and Li Tianjia had known each other before and had a good relationship. "No life? What are you thinking about?"
Li Tianjia kicked him lightly in anger. "There is something I didn't mention just now. Let me talk about it now."
Instructing several people to come closer, Li Tianjia whispered, "Liu Xiao proposed setting up a combat team before. I also have this idea. I have a strong sense of insecurity. I always feel that something will happen. We were teleported here. We are definitely not in the wilderness.
Survival is so simple."
"Lao Zhou, Dayang, and Xiao Yang, the four of us are from the physical education department, so of course there is no need to talk about our physical condition." Li Tianjia glanced at Liu Xiao, "Liu Xiao is my fellow countryman, a native of Wucheng, where Qi Jiajun started his career.
, No need to say. The five of us formed this first combat team, what do you think?"
"We have no problem with that!"
Yang Zhe and Yang Zhao responded in unison. They are twins. They are both on the rugby team of the Physical Education Department of the Normal University. They are incredibly strong. "Boss, I listen to you!"
Zhou Yuke majored in sprinting in the physical education department of the normal college. "I don't have any objection. I have a foundation in archery. What about you?"
Liu Xiao had been thinking about this issue before. Apart from getting a driver's license while in school, the only other things he could use were his keyboard and mouse skills and the gimmick of being a three-year-old member of the archery club. "You know how to do archery?!"
Li Tianjia said in surprise, "Very good, I can use the sword, it's passed down from my ancestors."
"We both practiced martial arts in high school. Zhang Zhao used the gun and I used the sword."
Twin brother Zhang Zhe said. Everyone looked at Zhou Yuke and saw that his expression was a little stiff. "I... I went back to my hometown during the summer vacation to help my grandma rake the ground. Does this count?"
"What's the meaning?"
Li Tianjia said in confusion. "It's just raking the ground? Rake, do you understand?"
Zhou Yuke made a gesture of clasping his hands and waving them from top to bottom. "It's just a rake, Zhu Bajie makes it."
His younger brother Yang Zhao sneered... "Okay, that's good. At least that thing can be used for farm work."
Li Tianjia patted Zhou Yuke on the shoulder and comforted him. "Let's decide like this. Each of us can choose his own weapon."
Liu Xiao nodded, reopened the reward box with his mind, and chose the item without hesitation. Then a message appeared: [Please simulate the existence of this item through your mind (note: the item must be a real item in the star field to which the creature belongs)] Liu Xiao
Xiao began to close his eyes and imagine in his mind the wooden compound bow he was best at in the archery club, every detail and archery scene. When he opened his eyes, a compound bow exactly as he remembered it appeared on its chest.
He quickly stretched out his hand to catch it. To his surprise, in addition to the compound bow, a quiver and 20 feather arrows appeared at the same time. It seemed that the system considered these three items to be a whole item. The weapons of the other four people also appeared one after another.
Appeared. What Li Tianjia got was a ritual sword, a relatively rare two-handed sword. This sword absorbed the essence of the Japanese samurai sword and improved the Qi family sword of the Ming Dynasty. This kind of sword was used by the Qi family army when they defeated the Japanese pirates. Zhang Zhao
There was a spear more than two meters long in his hand, and his brother Zhang Zhe had a short sword in his hand. When the last weapon, or farm tool, a nine-tooth nail rake appeared in Zhou Yuke's hand, several people selectively
Putting his head aside, he struggled not to laugh. The five people held their own weapons and stood guard around the food pile. Zhou Yuke, who was carrying a rake, stood out. "Old Zhou, it's okay. I have finally evolved into Bajie."
"Get lost, I am Marshal Tianpeng."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Food collection was going on in an intense and orderly manner. During this process, Liu Xiao found that the distance between different groups was widening. This was a bad signal, indicating that each group was slowly gaining a sense of territory.
After reducing the core area of their group. There are more and more groups that know how to collect food. I believe that soon, conflicts will arise between different groups over the collection area. Sure enough, a group of members of a thousand-person team entered a
A team of 100 people was picking artemisia annua nearby, which aroused strong dissatisfaction among the team of 100 people. After greeting each other rudely, the two sides began to have physical conflicts. Afterwards, hundreds of middle-aged men rushed out of the team of 100 people, some of whom were holding
Some of the farm tools were holding strange objects, and some grabbed stones picked up from the ground and rushed forward. The team of 100 people was obviously weak. After all, the opponent's combat units alone were equal to the total number of their members. But both sides
It was still restrained, they were just confronting each other, and there was no real blood. After all, an hour ago, everyone was still civilized people, and they may not have even fought once in their lives. In the end, the team of 100 people moved away as a whole and gave up the dispute.
of this area. "This is not the way."
Liu Xiao felt vaguely uneasy. He looked at his team. There were less than 50 people at full count, which was not enough for others to fill their teeth. When the pressure of survival is higher than civilized rationality, violence? That doesn't matter. He once again set his sights on
