Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Xu Xin is going to benefit the team.

His increase today is the increase of his spiritual power. Taking this opportunity, he can carve more artworks.

Just do it.

Walking into the art room, he sat in front of the carving and painting workbench.

It seems like I haven't made art in a while.

"Hey!" Ke Ke ran in from the outside, jumped onto his lap and fell down.

It didn't stay with Xu Xin all day yesterday, and it didn't sleep in the same room as him last night.

The little guy couldn't accept it, and now he didn't want to cling to Xu Xin all the time.

Xu Xin touched its small head: "It's fine here, don't disturb my work, you know?"

"Oh!"

Xu Xin took out a green-level crystal.

Warm up first.

He has a lot of these things now. In addition to the pile he got in the last rainy season, he also got a pile at the bottom of the lake in the cave.

Lifting the carving knife, he began to carve on it.

Soon, he entered the ecstasy of carving, and the hand holding the carving knife began to move rapidly.

Three minutes later, Xu Xin looked at the finished figurine, then looked at the time on the watch, and opened her eyes wide.

……So fast!

A green-level one was carved in three minutes!

In that hour, wouldn't it be possible to directly produce 20 pieces!

A person can hold up to 10 green-level statues, and he can satisfy the upper limit of two people's demand for green-level crystals in one hour!

Moreover, his energy was not consumed at all!

very nice!

Then carve the green crystal first.

His own decoration is enough for the time being. Whether it is the alchemy room or the production room, the success rate at this stage is already very high, and the carving and painting speed in the art room is also very fast.

Today, let's improve the decoration for others in [Explorer].

Especially Li Wenxi and Qi Xuefei, the functional areas of these two people are related to their abilities, and if they improve their decoration, the team benefits will be the highest.

Xu Xin calmed down, the carving knife kept moving, and small green-level carvings were constantly being born in his hands.

When he carved the eighteenth statue, the watch vibrated, and it was Ji Zhaoyang's voice.

"It's ten o'clock, and Wang Lei has already said in the group that he has triggered the event. Lou Feier should also go up, right?" Ji Zhaoyang asked.

Xu Xin stopped the carving knife in her hand, and touched Coco, who was always well-behaved in her arms: "Well, she left an hour ago, and said she was going to check on the situation."

"Then let's go to the top of Xuefeng to have a look. You also need to investigate the matter of the stone man you mentioned yesterday."

"Alright. You probably haven't seen the stone statue during the day, have you?"

"I went up to check around seven o'clock today. Maybe it's because it's still dark, and the appearance of those stone statues hasn't changed, but..."

"But what?"

"The pterosaur whose whole body was lit up last night changed its movements. After we left last night, it probably came back to life." Ji Zhaoyang said in a deep voice.

"Oh?" Xu Xin's eyes twitched.

He is not afraid of other stone statues, but the pterosaur stone statue, which moved last night?

"Anyway, let's go up and have a look. I'll get ready and go find you right away." Ji Chaoyang said.

"good."

Hang up the voice, and continue to carve the statue in your hand.

Eighteen green-level figurines were placed in front of him.

He traded eight to Li Wenxi and ten to Qi Xuefei on the spot.

Li Wenxi had carved two for her before, so only eight can reach the upper limit.

Within two seconds, Li Wenxi sent a video request.

In the video, she is in a parasitic tree house, and there are two other people sitting in the tree house, a man and a woman. He doesn't know him, and they should be the people Lou Feier brought last night.

"Why did you suddenly give me so many small statues!" Li Wenxi was a little surprised, "8 statues, that's 80 decoration, that's a lot!"

"I've carved some at home. I'm carving very fast now, but there are at most ten. If there are more, there will be no decoration..."

Xu Xin saw that behind her, after hearing her call him Xu Xin, the two of them instantly showed expressions of admiration. The fanatical eyes made him almost think that he had joined some cult.

"It's already a lot, and my probability of smelting purple-level materials can be increased. Look, our new members!" Li Wenxi was wearing casual clothes at this time, and pointed the camera at a man and a woman in the tree house.

"Hello." Xu Xin nodded with a smile.

"Hello, Mr. Xu!"

"Hi brother Xin!"

Although the two were full of admiration, they were very restrained. It seemed that his name was already synonymous with super power in the eyes of others.

"Are you still going out today?" Li Wenxi retracted the camera.

"Well, I'm going to the snow mountain soon."

"Oh well, then I won't play with you, hehe..."

"Don't come to me all the time, do something serious." Xu Xin felt a little helpless.

"But now the snow outside is three meters thick, so I can't dig mines at all... Why don't I go out on a skateboard and take a look around to see what's around, maybe I can find something new."

"Alright, but be careful, I saw a furry monster this morning."

"Really? Those... Predators? Well, you have to be more careful." Li Wenxi's expression immediately became a little more serious.

"It's fine to go out, but the treehouse must be well protected," Xu Xin reminded.

"Don't worry, the power grid has been repaired, and I have given Yajun permission to enter and exit my tree house. If there is a situation, she can help me control the control panel and resist foreign enemies."

"That's good."

After chatting casually for a while, Xu Xin hung up the video, and Qi Xuefei also sent him a message to express his thanks.

At this time, the sound of the teleportation door also came from outside, and Ji Zhaoyang teleported over.

After all, it is much closer to Xuefeng from his side.

Xu Xin got up and prepared to go out.

"Hey!" Ke Ke climbed onto Xu Xin's shoulder and yelled, indicating that he would go too.

If you go out to explore, Coco is indeed a great help, especially on that snowy peak. If there is any special situation, I am afraid that only Coco can find out in advance.

But the environment outside is still too cold for Coco, even if he puts it in the space bracelet and takes it there, he can't let it out.

Xu Xin thought for a while, and made another snow fox scarf, and wrapped Ke Ke's whole small body in it with a fluffy scarf.

"Huh?" Ke Ke revealed half of her head from the white fur, and her brown and white ears moved twice, her eyes full of doubts.

"This way you won't be cold, and I can take you out." Xu Xin touched Ke Ke's exposed ears and said.

Xu Xin went to the living room again, and put Mimi Yinwang and Ah Fu into his brand new purple space bracelet.

He also wanted to take Coco in, but strange things happened.

Ke Ke, this weird little panda, can't be put into the bracelet!

what's the situation?

Looking at the little guy in front of him who poked out half of his head from the snow fox scarf and looked at him innocently, Xu Xin pursed her lips.

This little guy is really mysterious.

He had no choice but to walk down the tree house with Coco in his arms.

"You are..." Ji Chaoyang looked at Xu Xin holding Ke Ke like a baby, he was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and shook his head and said, "I almost thought you two even have a baby."

"What..." Xu Xin said helplessly, "This little guy is special, so he can only be carried over like this. He really needs his perception."

"Hey!" Ke Ke stretched out her little paw from the plush ball and bluffed.

Ji Zhaoyang didn't ask too much: "Get ready, then let's go."

The two slid their skateboards and soon reached the bottom of the snow peak.

Based on the time, Lou Feier should still be climbing the section where the rocks are smooth and easy to fall.

However, Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang are invisible. After all, she cannot be sensed if she is more than fifty meters away.

"Let's go, let's go up."

The two jumped into the portal one after the other.

Xu Xin once again set foot on the top of the snow peak.

Just as he expected, these stone statues returned to the appearance when he climbed to the top yesterday.

All the stone statues, including the two nearest pterosaur stone statues, were facing the outward direction, making somewhat violent attack postures.

The demons danced wildly.

This group of stone statues is like soldiers who were suddenly frozen in a war. Their ferocious movements and ferocious expressions can scare the timid people away.

"Hmm...!" Coco shrank her head in the snowfox scarf wrap, she was a little scared, but still looked around curiously.

"Is this... the daytime scene you were talking about?" Ji Zhaoyang frowned.

Although Xu Xin had explained it to him long ago, this scene was still shocking.

Xu Xin looked up at the two pterosaur statues beside him.

Last night, the statue covered with blood-red patterns has returned to normal. It is spreading its wings with a ten-meter wingspan, raising its huge head, and opening its mouth, as if roaring towards the sky!

The two looked at each other and began to shuttle among the stone statues.

"Since the shapes of the day and night are different, then the time for these stone statues to move..." Ji Zhaoyang looked at the stone statues around him, thinking.

"When the sun rises, or when it sets. Early morning and evening." Xu Xin said, reaching out and gently touching a stone statue of a mutant bear.

The same as yesterday, a stone statue with a strange vitality.

"Huh?" Coco in his arms suddenly called out with some doubts.

Xu Xin's heart skipped a beat.

But did you find something?

It got half of its body out of the snow fox scarf, intending to jump out of Xu Xin's arms, but because the environment was too cold, it let out another "嘤", retracted into the snow fox scarf, and its exposed eyes rolled around. with.

"Ke Ke, did you find anything?" Xu Xin asked softly.

It stretched out its small paws, pushed Xu Xin, pointed in a direction and let out a whimper.

Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang started to follow the direction it pointed.

The two continued to walk outwards, getting farther and farther away from the portal, and getting closer to the edge of the cliff.

"Hey!" Ke Ke yelled at a distance of about 20 meters from the edge of the cliff. He seemed a little dissatisfied with the speed of Xu Xin and Xu Xin. He got out of the snow fox scarf and stepped on the ground. , and then ran forward five or six meters, and jumped twice in one position, "嘤嘤!"

The two ran over immediately.

Ke Ke couldn't bear the low temperature anymore, and immediately crawled along Xu Xin's legs into his arms, and got into the snow fox scarf at the speed of light, and then let out a muffled cry: "嘤...呼呱!"

Even sneezed a little.

Xu Xin rubbed Ke Ke's little head, then squatted down, and reached out to touch where it jumped.

Their current position is in the middle of the first circle of stone statues of ordinary beasts and the second circle of stone statues of low-level mutated creatures.

Under the feet, there is a cold and hard soil layer, without any plant growth, and there is no difference from the surrounding area.

"Can you believe this little guy's feelings?" Ji Zhaoyang asked.

"Hey!" Ke Ke yelled with some dissatisfaction.

"Yes. Coco helped me a lot. It even discovered the way to obtain the core of the tree house." Xu Xin nodded.

"Then... let's dig it up. Maybe there's something under this layer of soil." Ji Zhaoyang took out his shovel directly.

"Dig it out directly... it shouldn't disturb the surrounding stone statues, right?"

The movements of those stone statues seemed to attack him in the next second.

"I don't know, it's unlikely." Ji Chao shook his head and said, "Even if we are alarmed, at least the two of us can leave. It's not good to be too cautious."

"That's right." Xu Xin nodded, and also took out the shovel.

The first time they swung the shovel, the two of them noticed the difference in the snow-capped mountains.

They are holding high-end shovels in their hands. When they shovel down, usually a unit of soil will be directly shoveled out by them. But on this snow mountain...

They can only shovel the ground one by one, digging the hard and dry ground in front of them, just like digging with an ordinary shovel on the earth.

Fortunately, advanced tools are still beneficial. Even if you can't shovel out a large amount of soil, you can easily shovel the rock-hard soil.

Xu Xin reached out and squeezed the soil, the brown color was slightly red.

[Polluted Alpine Soil (Ash): The soil on the alpine is polluted, unable to grow any vegetation, and useless to survivors. 】

"It's polluted soil." Xu Xin spilled the soil in his hands.

Ji Zhaoyang nodded: "It makes sense. This giant mountain must be related to mutant creatures."

The two continued to shovel. Ke Ke was held by Xu Xin with one hand, only showing his eyes to look at the soil layer that had been excavated to a depth of 20 to 30 centimeters.

"Clang!"

Ji Chaoyang's shovel dug something, and there was a sound of metal colliding with metal.

Both of them were refreshed.

There really is something!

Something made of metal!

Treasure chest?

The two accelerated the speed of digging.

Soon, Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang saw the appearance under the soil layer.

"This is……"

The expressions of both of them changed, becoming a little weird.

It was a square iron door covered with rust.

There is a rusty handle on the iron door, which can be pulled open directly.

The two looked at each other, and they could see the seriousness in each other's eyes.

They were all too familiar with the style of the iron gate.

Isn't this the iron gate at the entrance to the underground world? !

They actually dug an entrance to the underground world on top of the snow peak? !
