Chapter 4 Survival

There were a large number of people surging towards the river in the distance. Liu Xiao and the others were not far from the river, only a hundred meters apart, so they walked quickly towards the river. The river was crowded with people, and it was easy to squeeze in to the river.

, just looking at the river, Liu Xiao knew the reason for the uneasiness. On the calm river, several corpses slowly floated down from the upper reaches, no, not just a few. He looked upstream, and that scene made him

It will be unforgettable for a lifetime. Countless corpses almost covered the surface of the river. They slowly floated downstream little by little with the current. On both sides of the upstream, there were many people jumping into the water one after another. Liu Xiao watched helplessly.

Watching a mother and daughter crying, hugging each other and submerging into the water, they disappeared after a brief struggle. Facing death made everyone extremely depressed. There were women around who wanted to cry, but they only dared to cover their mouths and choke. Everyone originally

I can't say how happy my life is, but there is no war, famine, and very little death. There is almost no need to face primitive fears, but it is different now, completely. Even as the female voice said, death here does not mean

Real death, but everyone knows very well that the current body is also a real existence. Do you choose to use a death to verify the authenticity of what the female voice said? How much courage does it take, if what she said is completely a lie

What about people who fell into the river? There was a steady stream of people falling into the river, and the floating corpses seemed to indicate the fact to those on the shore. They went back first. You can continue to suffer here. So more people were shaken, and more people

Join in. Seeing this scene, Liu Xiao did not continue to watch, turned around, squeezed out of the crowd, and left the river. He didn't believe it, not that he didn't believe what the woman said, but that he didn't believe that higher civilization would teleport them.

The meeting that came over had no meaning. What he remembered were the words given by the woman. This was an unprecedented opportunity. In this case, why should you miss it? For thousands of years, every emperor who stood at the apex of a dynasty, who

Do you dare to say that his life is better than that of an ordinary middle-class person today? This is a gap in technology, a gap in culture, and a gap in civilization. The corner of Liu Xiao's mouth rose. At this moment, he decided that he must survive here.

Afraid that team members would be affected by the river jumping incident, Li Tianjia decided to move the team away from the river and close to the woods. The condition of the team members was relatively stable. After all, rational people still choose to be cowardly in the face of death. At the same time, the number of people in the team also increased.

It has been slightly expanded, and 7 more lone college students have joined in. The girls have basically completed the acquisition of knowledge. Of course, everyone among them also found that the knowledge rewards available to everyone are different, which also shows that at the origin,

There are many types of knowledge systems, and it is almost impossible to master them all. Everyone understands this. After all, even among the known knowledge systems on earth, a person may not be able to learn them all in his lifetime. But at least, survival

The relevant basic knowledge was already there. Liu Xiao didn't have time to ask everyone for knowledge information one by one. He just roughly knew which girls had obtained what type of knowledge, and asked their names to remember their looks. Soon, Li Tianjia

Gather everyone and start preparing for survival. "There is a lot of knowledge and information and it is very complicated. I will give you a few directions. The girls will give their opinions based on the knowledge they know. Then we will decide what kind of items the boys will get and what they will do next."

Seeing that everyone had gathered, 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, he would not be able to give people a sufficient sense of security in this environment, so he would be the best choice for a leader. "Okay, let me tell you," Ye Shan said nervously.

Following Li Tianjia's speech, "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 green leaf spike on 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, and the fruits can be eaten directly. Some of them are 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, even some of these low-level plants 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. The venom falls from high places and falls on the animals, 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'm talking about should be considered the most threatening plants among the lower plants. There are also some that can only slightly harm animals of our size. As for what will happen to the lower plants, now

Unable to assess. So, if you want to enter the woods later, you must be careful.”

"Perhaps because of the large 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 closer 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 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 plum blossoms. 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.

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 annoyance. "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 spear 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 domain 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 two-meter-long spear in his hand, and his brother Zhang Zhe had a short sword in his hand. When the last weapon, or farm tool, the 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, members of a group of 1,000 people 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, just a confrontation, no real blood was seen. After all, an hour ago, everyone was a civilized person, 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
