A Delicious and Flammable Backlands Tour

He had scouted it when he came back. There was indeed a water pool for fishing near the camp. It was feasible to catch bass, but he would encounter slimes.

"A guy who doesn't even have the guts to face a slime is not worthy of eating fish."

Xia Zhi said something lightly, and left quickly.

It seems that these people should not be hungry.

When passing by the market, as usual, he left a fish for the old man watching the stall.

But this time the old man reacted very quickly, before Xia Zhi had time to leave, he was stopped.

"Young man... Take these fish back, take them back! What do you think of me, the old man. People in Luofeng Town never accept gifts from others in vain."

"This is not a gift from me, old man. I use your line to fish, so you should have your share of the harvest. I want to ask something related to fishing."

"Just say it, you know everything."

"Hmm... If there was a relatively safe pool, would anyone be willing to remove the fish?"

"Why not, do we have to wait for others to support us?"

the old man asked back.

"Then I probably understand."

The summer solstice is ready to go back.

"If you really don't want to accept it, this fish will be considered as a reward for cooperating with the questionnaire."

"Well, thank you, young man. I can see you're a good man, old man. I'm not mistaken."

"..."

Xia Zhi staggered and almost slipped.

Damn, got stuck by a good old man with good hair.

……

At dinner, Ha-ji knocks on Jung-jin’s door with fish soup.

"Dude, there's something I need to talk to you about."

"Come in, the door is unlocked. And...don't draw your sword."

"what?"

Xia Zhi was a little puzzled, but still opened the door and came in.

Zheng Jin was sitting on the bed, and there were two strangers sitting in the middle of the room—one of them, the young Xia Zhi, had seen him during the day, and he didn't have a good impression on him.

He put the pot of fish soup on the table and looked at the boy and his partner.

"It's you. Let me guess...the two little guys from the guardians of the imperial capital?"

"You are obviously not much older than us!"

Li stared at Xia Zhi.

"Also, why do you solo players have trouble with us?!"

"I'm not a lone player, and I'm not interested in your shit."

Xia Zhi ignored Li.

He moved a chair and sat down on his own, looking at Zheng Jin.

"Have you had dinner, buddy? I purposely caught some extra fish today."

Zheng Jin laughed.

"You adapt quickly. Well, it's true that you can't make a decision on an empty stomach. I'd rather be respectful than obedient."

Xia Zhi nodded, and then looked at Li Helin.

"Have you two had dinner? If not, I wouldn't mind entertaining you."

Lin intends to politely refuse.

"Thank you, but we..."

"Snoring..."

But at this moment, Li's stomach growled.

Lin glared at him, who made an innocent face.

"Squad leader, don't blame me."

"You guy..."

Xia Zhi waved his hand and interrupted Lin.

"Okay, okay, strict little squad leader. Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think about your partners, right? Please."

Zheng Jin brought them two pairs of bowls and chopsticks in due course.

"Thank you very much for your kindness."

Lin had no choice but to express her gratitude.

NO.207 Underground fishery

"Zheng Jin, I asked about it today."

Halfway through the meal, Xia Zhi said, "If there is a safe pond, many survivors are actually willing to go fishing. This way your burden should be less."

"But... I remember that there is no safe pond around here."

Lin glanced at Xia Zhi, and changed her opinion of him slightly.She thought Xia Zhi was a difficult guy to get along with, but she didn't expect to think of the townspeople.

"That's right, ice slimes are actually very dangerous, especially when there are several of them together."

Li also interjected that he was also hunted down by the slime group.

"Ordinary people are frozen and can't run away."

"Well... the existing site is indeed not safe. But... why don't we build a safe scene ourselves? It can be used as a fishing ground and a refuge."

Xia Zhi's answer made Zheng Jin's eyes brighten, and he looked at Xia Zhi eagerly.

"I think you already have an idea, so you came to me?"

"Indeed, but my plan is a little premature."

Xia Zhi didn't deny this, but said it to himself.

"I dug back in a crack not far away, and saw an underground pond. The horizontal distance between this pond and the camp is not far, and we can completely transform it."

"It's a really good idea."

Lin nodded, and looked at Xia Zhi suspiciously.

"However, can you really guarantee the safety of transforming the underground pond?"

"It's not [-] percent, but it's safer than it is now."

Because in Xia Zhi's heart, camps on land have no concealment at all.

Zheng Jin winked at Xia Zhi - do you want to show your achievements?

Xia Zhi shrugged, he didn't think it mattered.

"Then Mars is not here, let's vote with a show of hands."

Zheng Jin said, raising his hand.

"Raise your hand if you agree with this proposal."

Xia Zhi raised her hand, Lin raised her hand, but Li still hesitated.

He hesitated.

"Is it really good not to tell the townspeople?"

Xia Zhi didn't answer, but Zheng Jin looked at the kid with contempt.

"How can you be a mother-in-law? Even the little girl next to you is more courageous than you."

"But, their right to know..."

"We didn't hide it from them. Besides—it's for their own good. It's better to have an emergency shelter than nothing." Xia Zhi looked at this kid, "You're right."

An inexplicable coercion emanated from Xia Zhi and locked on Li.

This pressure almost overwhelmed him.

"No... that's right."

He nodded hastily.

Zheng Jin looked at the unanimous vote and nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right. We are going to do big things. People who make big news, how can we stick to this kind of shit."

Xia Zhi didn't refute, but just drank the fish soup on his own.

"call……"

After a bowl of fish soup, he stood up.

"Then it's settled. Tomorrow, Li and Lin, you can continue to maintain order, and Zheng Jin can cooperate with me to measure the terrain—excuse me."

Xia Zhi walked out of the room.

"Remember to return the pot to me."

"I know, I know." Zheng Jin closed the door angrily.

……

Lin and Li also returned to their residence.

"Lin, why did you agree today? I thought you would vote against it, so I followed suit..."

Li looked at his monitor with some doubts.

The latter gave him a blank look.

"Are you stupid? That guy must be with Zheng Jin. When the 'Lava Demon God' comes back, there will be three of them. If they don't reconcile now, they will be hammered later?"

"I thought that Xia was a good person..."

"I don't know if he is a good guy. But he doesn't mean to be hostile to us. Considering that we are currently not popular with the players as a whole, it is already commendable."

Lin said lightly.

"Also, don't you remember that Uncle Wang called us to pay attention to him, isn't he?"

"Forget it! I only remember what's wrong with Miss Sister's information!"

Li replied confidently.

……

The next day, Xia Zhi got up in the morning and ate some dry food, then went out to measure the distance between the underground lake and the camp.

Because there is no prospecting potion or hunting potion, Xia Zhi can only use the most stupid method to confirm the direction.

That is - after a certain distance, dig a tunnel down.In this way, he can roughly confirm whether he dug sideways or not.

Moreover, these small channels can also be used as vents.

All morning, the summer solstice goes back and forth between the ground and the snow.

"It would be much more convenient if the evil eye is still there."

Master Xia looked at the project volume, which was still halfway through, and felt that the disc in the waist seemed to protrude and hurt...

No way, who told me to propose this plan, dig it.

In order to save time, he ate grilled fish for lunch.

It's a pity that the shiver horn can't be eaten as a meal.

Xia Zhi looked at the occasional ice flowers on the surrounding snow, feeling a little uncomfortable.I can't use my backpack now, and I can't take this plant with me.And eating is even more impossible, the taste of this thing is simply revenge on society.
