“Huh?”

After browsing for a long time, Chen Feng finally saw something he wanted. The lighter probably came from a treasure chest.

Other than food and water, the source of fire could be considered an essential resource.

However, it was impossible to exchange it for 1L of water. Chen Feng clicked on Wang Er’s profile picture and chose to message him privately.

“Brother, can I exchange 200ML of water for your lighter?”

Not long after, Chen Feng received a private message.

“No, it’s too little. This is a lighter. Humans can’t live without fire! At least 800ML of water.”

“At this moment, which do you think is more important, water or a lighter? I only have a 550ML bottle of water. I drank half of it myself and only had about 300ml left. At most, I can give you 220ML. It’s fine if you don’t want it!”

Chen Feng obviously would not reveal how much he had. At this time, water was definitely the biggest bargaining chip.

After a long time, Chen Feng received a private message.

“You win. The price for the lighter is 250ML of water. If you agree, we will trade!”

Just as Wang Er finished his sentence, a trade box appeared on Chen Feng’s interface.

Li Si had placed the lighter at his end of the trade box, waiting for Chen Feng.

Chen Feng took out the half bottle of mineral water and drank another mouthful. He then placed it in the trade box and clicked to confirm the trade.

[Transaction successful]

Chen Feng smiled as he looked at the lighter that suddenly appeared in his hand.

The things that he had not cared about in the past were now extremely precious.

There was nothing that Chen Feng needed in the chat channel and the trading interface for the time being.

He opened [Manufacture].

The wooden treasure chest that he opened previously also turned into six pieces of wood after being stored back in the warehouse.

[Firewood: (remaining 22, requires 2) Wood]

Evaluation: A completely dried piece of wood can burn for four hours.

[Manufacturing successful, lost 4 wood, obtained 2 firewood]

[Iron Basin: (remaining 28, requires 2) iron blocks]

Evaluation: A container that can be used as a washbasin as well as an iron pot.

[Manufacturing successful, lost 4 iron blocks, obtained 2 iron basins]

[Knife: (remaining 24, requires 1) iron block]

Evaluation: A 10-centimeter knife that, that is a perfect size to be used for a manicure.

[Manufacturing successful, lost 1 iron block, obtained 1 knife]

From the various options in [Manufacturing], Chen Feng used wood and iron blocks to create five items.

Two sticks of firewood could burn up to 8 hours, and it could be used for light and to cook food.

The knife would be used to handle the food later.

As for why two iron basins were made, that would have to be explained.

There was still much seawater seeping up from the raft, and the firewood would have to be burned directly on the raft.

It might destroy the raft, and also it might not burn as well.

Therefore, it was best to use an iron basin as a brazier.

Chen Feng had his clever use for the other iron basin.

He took four pieces of wood from the warehouse and placed them on the wooden raft. He tied them together with plant fibers and put an iron basin on the bottom. He took out a piece of firewood and placed it in.

Finally, he placed another iron basin on top of the wood.

Tada, a simple stove was ready.

He pressed the lighter, and the flames rushed out and approached the firewood.

Hula

The firewood was not as difficult to light as in the real world. After the flame came close, it suddenly caught on fire. The fire was not weak either, and it made Chen Feng’s face flush red.

The night in the sea was different from the day. The sea’s surface was very humid, and the occasional cool breeze would make people shiver uncontrollably.

Chen Feng estimated that the temperature should be below 10 degrees Celsius. He was still wearing his thin pajamas, but fortunately, the burning firewood gave him some warmth.

After drinking more than half a bottle of mineral water, he was no longer thirsty. What he needed to do now was to make dinner.

He took out a cod from the warehouse and pressed it on the raft under his feet.

This cod was still alive in Chen Feng’s hands. It seemed that the warehouse had an excellent preservation effect.

Cod was a very common fish in the ocean. It was famous for its delicious meat and rich nutrition.

The cod in Chen Feng’s hand was not very big. It was only 30CM long and weighed about half a kilogram.

The knife gently scraped off the tiny scales on its body, then cut open the pale white belly of the fish and dug out its internal organs. The cod’s lifeforce was quickly depleting after this. After struggling for a while, it completely stopped moving.

Regardless of the garbage classification, Chen Feng threw the cod’s internal organs into the sea and washed the cod clean in the sea. Chen Feng cut the cod into six pieces vertically and placed them directly on the iron basin that was already smoking.

Zi Zi Zi

The fish meat sizzled after making contact with the hot iron.

After a while, the fish meat curled up under the heat, and the pale yellow fat slowly dripped out from the fish.

The cod had a lot of fat. When it was grilled, it would produce a large amount of fat. Since there was no edible oil, it made sense to cook with animal fat. This was also the reason why Chen Feng cooked the cod first.

After a while, the fish meat turned golden. Chen Feng turned the fish pieces over, and the delicious smell of fresh, fried fish filled the air.

Saliva flowed out of his mouth.

“It’s not cooked yet. Just be patient a little longer. Just be patient a little while longer.”

He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and moved the fish meat to the side of the iron basin, separating oil to the middle.

Then, he took out a palm-sized octopus from the warehouse.

The octopus struggled non-stop, and a few tentacles wrapped around Chen Feng’s arm.

Regardless of its resistance, Chen Feng pressed it against the basin.

Zi Zi

The octopus struggled even more fiercely. Chen Feng had to use a knife to pierce its body and nailed it into the iron basin.

The octopus was a type of seafood with a lot of water. After being grilled for a while, the entire octopus was only half the size of his fist.

Although there were no other seasonings added, high-end ingredients often only required the simplest way of cooking.

After being grilled, the two kinds of seafood did not have any fishy smell. Instead, it smelled fresh and fragrant.

The freshness of the fish and the fragrance of the octopus worked perfectly together. Not long after, a seafood double-barbeque was completed.

Hmm…this taste was not inferior to any seafood Chen Feng had eaten before….

After working hard for the whole day, Chen Feng was tired. He placed the finished dishes on the raft and sat down as well.

He leaned against the stove and took out a brand new bottle of ice dew mineral water. He carefully took a sip and enjoyed the campfire dinner.

The fish was tender and smooth. With a light nibble, it melted in his mouth. The soft texture filled his mouth.

Take another bite of the octopus, bouncy, bounce, bounce…

Well, that’s beside the point.

This was a beautiful gift of nature!

If he was not drifting on the sea, Chen Feng almost forgot that he was in a survival game.

“How could I not share such a wonderful moment with others?”

Chen Feng opened the chat channel and took photos of his double seafood barbeque, mineral water and bonfire.

He then sent them to the world chat and the regional chat.

“Cool Sea Breeze, Raft, bonfire, and dinner. What an ordinary night! Picture. JPG.”

As the message was sent, the world chat and the regional chat instantly exploded.

Chen Feng’s also received countless private messages.

“Ah! Boss! Do you still lack accessories? Please give me something to eat and drink!”

“Me! Qin ShiHuang, need to eat and drink!”

“F*ck, I almost pissed myself. This guy is actually having a barbecue.”

“I’m still eating raw fish! It’s so fishy!”

“Is this a survival game or a food game?”

“This guy is old Versailles!”

“Where’s My Knife?”

“I’ll go get it!”

“Where’s my knife?”

“I’ll go get it! Stay in formation downstairs!”


Most of the private messages he received were threats, seduction, deception, and demands.

In the vast ocean, it does not matter whether you were a man or a woman, good or bad; everyone was the same. They had to rely on themselves to survive.

In order to survive at sea, the keyu was to take care of oneself.

Ignoring the explosion of masseges in [Chat], Chen Feng took out his fishing rod after eating his fill and threw it into the sea.
