Two Hundred and Fifty, Side Missions Unlocked, Seeds!
That afternoon, the snowstorm was so heavy that even the officers of the Shenji Battalion could not bear it. The person in charge of breaking the snow had to pull his back leg out of the snow every time he took a step before he could take another step.
Even if everyone took turns breaking through the snow, walking on flat ground would be extremely difficult in this damn weather.
But this afternoon, no one dared to faint anymore. They were afraid that they would be dragged to death in the snow by Ren Xiaosu.
"Let's set up camp," said the Shenji Battalion officer, "We'll move on after the snow stops."
This is not the time to save face, if we continue walking, maybe all of them will die in the snow.
At that point, the task was also impossible to complete, and they couldn't even walk to Shuanglong Mountain.
The officers of the Shenji Battalion felt that they could still persevere, but the soldiers of the private army were in poor health.
When they learned that they could camp and rest, all the soldiers in the private army felt like they were reborn. They trembled and wanted to sit directly in the snow to rest, but Ren Xiaosu yelled, "Get up and set up tents for me. If you don't have a tent to shelter from the wind, you want to rest. Do you want to die in the snow?"
In fact, if you don’t set up a tent, you can also rest in the snow, just dig a snow pit and bury yourself in it. This is not irony, but trekking in the snow without a tent, this is the best way.
Many people think that it will be colder if they are buried in a snow pit, but in fact, the snow pit can help the body to keep warm, because the world outside the snow pit is colder.
Ren Xiaosu once heard from Zhang Jinglin that some human races farther north would build houses made of ice to keep warm in winter.
At this time, facing the threat of death, everyone struggled to get up, using their last strength to build the tent.
However, some combat teams were miserable. In order to save effort on the way, they even threw away the tents at some point.
At this time, it is better to be able to squeeze into other people's tents. If others don't let them rub against the tents, they can only dig snow pits to gamble on whether their bodies are strong enough.
Ren Xiaosu explained to Li Qingzheng and the others: "I'm here to pitch the tent, and when you come back from collecting dry firewood on the ground, if you don't have any dry firewood, you pick up branches and come back. You have to start the fire and roast your body, and each of you can drink a bowl of hot porridge, otherwise no one will be able to carry it."
"Okay," Li Qingzheng said with his face flushed with cold, "Leave it to me,
Brothers, come with me, go out and gather some firewood and come back. "
When the branches broken off from the tree are ignited, there will be a lot of smoke, which is choking.
But compared with heating, this is a trivial matter.
At this moment, the palace said in Ren Xiaosu's mind: "Mission completed: Reward the basic skill learning map."
Until this moment, his task was considered complete, and this was probably the most difficult first time doing an ordinary task.
Now he has two skill learning atlases on him, but Ren Xiaosu doesn't plan to use them, because there is no target for him to learn nearby. If he encounters Hu Hua again, he can try it. Although the basic level atlases cannot learn extraordinary abilities, Hu Shuo must have many skills that Ren Xiaosu can use.
But the palace didn't finish talking, it continued: "Complete the side mission, unlock new vending machine items, seeds!"
Ren Xiaosu's eyes lit up. It's finally time for this side mission. He always felt that the time was too long, but after careful calculation, today is only the second day of the Lunar New Year.
He looked into the palace, and saw that the vending machine was standing quietly in the palace, and there was a new grid next to the poker grid.
Seeds were scattered in the grid, but to Ren Xiaosu's surprise, those seeds seemed to be a little different. Could it be that the plants that grow out of different seeds will be different?
The newly unlocked grid is like a candy box in a grocery store. The colorful wrapping paper represents different tastes, and the seeds of different colors represent different uses.
He put in a thank you coin, but saw a red seed the size of a thumb falling out of the delivery opening below. Ren Xiaosu held it in his hand, but the palace did not explain what it was.
"You have to plant it to know?" Ren Xiaosu was puzzled. The key is that your palace should tell you about its growth environment, right?
There must be something magical about the products produced by the palace, but the magic must be tested by oneself.
For example, before the Explosion Poker was developed by Ren Xiaosu himself, if he didn't develop it, it would be just ordinary playing cards.
what to do? Try burying it in the ground? What if this seed can germinate and bloom immediately? Wouldn't it be nice if the plants from the seeds of this great winter could bear fruit immediately or something.
Ren Xiaosu had always had great expectations for the side mission rewards given by the palace, even expectations that ignored the laws of nature.
Ren Xiaosu said to Chen Wudi: "You are guarding the tent here. When they come back, they will say that I saw a little wild boar and are going to catch it for dinner. If I come back late, you can adapt accordingly."
"Okay," Chen Wudi nodded.
Ren Xiaosu walked into the snow alone, and felt that he might have been a little hasty in letting Chen Wudi adapt to the situation...
He walked further north to find a suitable place to experiment with how miraculous this seed was.
Going northward until he found a place slightly leeward, he finally dug up the snow and soil on the surface and buried the red seeds inside.
Ren Xiaosu waited patiently, but saw that the newly buried seed suddenly sprouted, and thorny thorns grew outwards. Its thorny branches spread out from the snow, and did not stop until they spread tens of meters.
If the snow were lifted, Ren Xiaosu might be able to see the red thorny vines spreading on the ground like a spider web, waiting for prey.
At this moment, this plant was connected to Ren Xiaosu's consciousness just like Popping Poker. Ren Xiaosu was shocked to find that this plant was extremely aggressive. If Ren Xiaosu didn't control it, it would attack all creatures that passed by!
What's the situation, Ren Xiaosu thought that this thing could bear fruit to eat, but it turned out to be an attacking plant.
No, it's more of a defense than an attack.
If Ren Xiaosu and the others really lived in the deep mountains and old forests in the future, as long as they planted these things around them, they wouldn't have to be afraid of any wild beasts.
Ren Xiaosu looked at the seeds of other colors in the palace, and didn't know what abilities the other seeds would have. There must be one that can be eaten...
After thinking for a while, he threw in 5 thank you coins again, exchanged for five seeds in one go, and buried them one by one in the soil far apart.
Chen Wudi was sitting in the tent waiting, and Li Qingzheng asked, "Wudi, why did your master go?"
Chen Wudi thought for a while and said, "My master has gone to catch wild boars, and is going to catch them for our dinner."
Li Qingzheng: "Then why haven't you come back yet?"
Chen Wudi thought for a while: "Maybe the wild boar disagrees."
