Scavenging wasteland in the last days: I have fields, cattle and a villa

"What is the use of the rough stone? Why is it so sought after by everyone? Do you think... is it possible for us to find a rough stone?"

"You want to find rough stones?"

Maybe it's because her goals are written all over her face.

Although Lin Xiao was questioning, his face already had a cold expression that said "You can't do this, please stop dreaming."

"Rough stones can be exchanged for a lot of food. If we can find one, it can solve the food problem."

You think it's impossible, but I insist on it.

Jiang Yuan said with a serious face.

Lin Xiao stared at her expressionlessly, and after a long time, he explained to her.

"There are two kinds of rough stones. One kind of rough stone exists in a high-radiation area and is inaccessible to humans. Even if you find the rough stone, you have no life to bring it back. The other kind of rough stone is in the body of a mutated beast. If you kill the beast, you will get it." You may get different levels of rough stones, do you think you have the ability to kill mutant beasts?"

Wouldn't that cost you your life?

Is it that difficult?

Jiang Yuan was a little discouraged.

When you see a pheasant that you can't even deal with, you don't think about the mutated beast.

The only possibility is high radiation areas.

"Aren't there special materials in the safe zone that can prevent high radiation? Will there be equipment for sale or rent?"

She didn't believe it, there was nothing she could do.

Lin Xiao originally planned to make Jiang Yuan give up.

I didn't expect her to be so persistent.

"Yes, radiation protection suits are also divided into levels. The lowest red radiation protection suit requires fifty points to rent for one day, which is fifty pounds of rice."

……

Isn't that a money grab? One kilogram of red rough stone can be exchanged for ten kilograms of rice. If the rough stone found does not weigh five kilograms, is it not a loss-making business?

And the point is that Jiang Yuan can't even get a pound of rice together.

Difficult, too difficult.

Jiang Yuan feels that she is not even qualified to have a sweet dream. She is not worthy. She only deserves to dig wild vegetables for the rest of her life.

In an instant, she was gone like a wilted rubber ball.

Lin Xiao couldn't bear to see a girl who was full of hope in life lose her fighting spirit.

Was the blow so severe that she didn’t even want to live anymore?

"If you can find the original stone and the radiation-proof suit, I can come up with a solution."

Uncut stones can be found but not found. At least since Lin Xiao came to the slums, no one has ever found them.

Just comfort her.

If she really found it, he would get the original stone at any cost, even if it cost his life.

"really?"

Undoubtedly, Jiang Yuan did see hope in it, and raised her head eager to confirm the answer from Lin Xiao.

"Ah."

He also secretly made up his mind.

Anyway, he doesn't have much time left. If he can find the original stone in exchange for a stable life for his siblings and Jiang Yuan in the future, he will not hesitate.

"Then it's settled, I will definitely work hard."

Jiang Yuan was given a blood injection and cheered up again.

When she got home that night, after eating wild vegetables, she watered her shepherd's purse and went to bed happily.

Although the shepherd's purse is still marked with an orange mark, it has grown a lot and is now as big as a Chinese cabbage. Jiang Yuan seems to have seen hope, so there is an endless supply of space spring water, as long as it can be eaten, it will be enough.

The next morning, they still got up at five o'clock. They picked up their equipment and went to find food together.

Moreover, Lin Xiao wants to take Jiang Yuan to a place far away, so he won't be back at noon today.

After telling the two little carrot heads to pack up the house, they carried a day's worth of water and food and set off.

In the afternoon, when the radiation intensity is strongest, no one dares to stay outside without an accurate hiding spot. This also leads to the fact that most people in the slums look for food nearby and do not dare to go far.

Lin Xiao said he wanted to go. Jiang Yuan instinctively believed that he had a way to protect himself, so she just followed him without asking.

After walking for about two hours, there was almost no one around them.

It was obvious that few people had been nearby, and there were thick bushes. When people walked in, they were almost submerged in the woods, in case they got lost. The two of them were on the same road and did not dare to separate.

The more Jiang Yuan walked, the more frightened she became. She was always terrified that some wild beast would suddenly rush out as she walked.

"Do you think...are there any wild animals around here?"

She tried to control her fear and pretended to be relaxed.

"The slums within ten kilometers have been cleared by the security forces, so they are relatively safe."

That's good. Just when Jiang Yuan was about to breathe a sigh of relief, she heard him add, "But we are too far away from the slums now, and it is difficult for wild animals to roam in sparsely populated areas. You'd better hold the short knife in your hand to protect yourself. "

Lin Xiao's words in the next second made her heart beat wildly.

Not only the dagger, she also took out the small hoe for digging wild vegetables.

A small hoe in her left hand and a short knife in her right hand. If there were weapons, she wished she had one in her mouth.

Lin Xiao walked slowly, observing the surroundings and looking for food. However, Leng Buding discovered that Jiang Yuan had lost her. He turned around to look for her in a panic, only to find her bent over, staring at the surroundings with a vigilant expression.

Just like a little squirrel running for its life.

Lin Xiao looked helpless and wanted to remind her that she was not that dangerous.

However, it is necessary to remain fully vigilant when going out.

Although she looks a bit ugly, it's better than being arrogant and not knowing whether to live or die, right?

Jiang Yuan can't take care of so much.

I kept my head down and walked forward, but as I walked, I found a lot of brown-red chestnuts on the ground, which were still out of their shells. Each one weighed about half a catty.

"Lin Xiao, wait."

Originally she didn't dare to squat down to pick it up for fear of losing it, but suddenly she saw a chestnut marked cyan, which was completely edible. If she didn't call her Lin Xiao, she would be sorry for the food she found.

So she grabbed the clothes on Lin Xiao's back with one hand, and picked up a half-pound chestnut with the other hand.

"Is it edible?"

There are a lot of them around here. At a glance, at least a hundred have fallen, and some have fallen underground in the shadows. If you can pick up a dozen or so, it will be a huge asset.

It was obvious that Lin Xiao was looking far away, and he was too tall, so he didn't pay much attention to his feet.

When I saw it, I realized that there was a chestnut tree nearby. There were about ten trees. The trees were densely covered with chestnuts. Lin Xiao's eyes lit up when he saw it.

"People in the safe zone also need chestnuts. If we find a lot, we might be able to exchange them for some rice."

He seemed to see Jiang Yuan's persistence in rice, so he cheered her up.

What are you waiting for? Do it?

Soon, Jiang Yuan rolled up her sleeves and took out a large bag made of red teng from her black backpack. It was very similar to the garbage bag she used five hundred years ago, but it was obviously stronger and more beautiful, but it had seams. The body can't be packed, but half a catty of chestnuts is more than enough.

She got down on her knees and crawled directly on the ground, faster.

It's just that she wasn't really fast at finding them one by one. It took her more than an hour to complete the hundreds of them on the ground.

But the harvest was also good. I picked up 17 edible ones, which weighed about eight kilograms.

And this was just what she picked up from the ground.
