Chapter 72: The Long Night (4)
However, because there was no oil to ignite on this "torch", and there was always a cold wind blowing in the forest, Su Ruoying even tried three matches and failed to light a torch.
The expressions on the faces of the three began to become solemn, and Carl had to pass the match, and he lit the second torch only successfully. Then use this one to light the others in turn, and there are only fifteen matches left in the matchbox.
This was not a good start, and the trio continued to walk forward by the light of the torches, and soon found traces that resembled a forest path.
The spirits of the three of them were lifted, and Luo Fei also understood that this must be a normal arrangement of the system, otherwise if the three of them couldn't find something to guide them after walking all night, then the difficulty of this script should not be ordinary!
The traces became more and more obvious, and it was not until the three of them walked for almost an hour that they converged on a forest road that was already clearly a road.
There were already traces of vehicles on the main road, and the three of them walked along the main road for another half an hour before they found a small wooden house in the forest painted blue.
At this time, judging from the sky, there was still a long time before dawn. The three of them were a little tired after walking for so long, so they wanted to rest here first.
Carl was obviously a little hesitant to disturb others late at night, but Su Ruoying, who knew that it was just a script, obviously had no such concerns.
She walked past Carl in front of her and knocked on the door, and at first she knocked quietly, and there was no answer inside.
After it lasted for a minute, Su Ruoying, who didn't have much patience, simply turned her palm into a fist and smashed the door directly.
"You can't do that!" At this time, Karl stepped forward to stop Su Ruoying: "We need the help of the people in the house now, if it makes the people inside unhappy, it will not be good for us." β
Regarding the suggestion of the NPC with only one person, Su Ruoying immediately followed.
She even thought when she stopped and stepped back, "What Carl just said should be a warning to me about the change of direction of the system, if I ignore him and continue to slam the door, it is likely that the people in the room will be completely enraged, which will make it even more difficult to complete the task in the future!" β
However, after the three of them waited patiently for about five minutes, there was still no sound in the wooden house.
Su Ruoying looked at the other two with a puzzled look.
Karl scratched his head and said tentatively, "Maybe the people in the house are sleeping soundly, or why don't we sit down in front of the house and rest until dawn and ask for their help?" β
Unexpectedly, at this time, Luo Fei walked straight to the door.
"Don't, you don't-"
Carl just said that he wanted to stop Luo Fei from slamming the door like Su Ruoying, but after Luo Fei pushed the door but didn't push it, he walked to the window of the wooden house and shone it inside through the glass with a torch.
Luo Fei could faintly see by the light of the torch that there was a bed inside, and something like a stove. There was a table and a chair, an upright metal cabinet, and a few miscellaneous items scattered throughout the house.
Seeing this, he did not hesitate to hand over the torch to his left hand, took down the long sword behind his back and the scabbard together, and directly smashed the window near the latch with the place of the sword handle!
"What are you doing! We're not robbers! Carl was obviously dissatisfied with Luo Fei's approach, and rushed towards Luo Fei while shouting.
"Don't worry! There's no one in there! After Luo Fei said this, he reached in with his right hand to open the window, turned to the stunned Carl and said, "Come and do me a favor, help me go in." β
"But there's no one in there, and if we do this, we will be discovered by the owner who has returnedγγγγγγ" Carl still seems resistant to flipping windows.
"You'd better help me get there!" Su Ruoying, who learned that there was no one inside, was very depressed about her previous request for Carl as a system prompt, and seeing that Carl was still unwilling to help Luo Fei, she simply put the torch by the wall by herself, walked to the window and asked Luo Fei to hold her in.
Su Ruoying's weight in the game is about 47 kilograms, Luo Fei immediately put down the things in her hands when Su Ruoying was going up with the help of the window, supported her calves and pushed upward, Su Ruoying easily climbed onto the windowsill, and then jumped into the house!
"Alas! It looks like we had to apologize to the owner of this house afterwards! After Su Ruoying opened the door, Carl, who knew that the matter was irreparable, still sighed and walked into the room.
The whole chalet is about five meters long and only three meters wide.
When the three of them came in with torches, they found that the space was very small, except for the furniture and the stove.
The only upright iron cabinet was locked, and Luo Fei and Su Ruoying searched for other searchable places in the house.
Luo Fei found two can openers, two lighters, two cans of yellow peaches, two cans of beef, and two small pots that could be used to cook things from the drawer of the wooden table.
Su Ruoying, on the other hand, found six firewood that could be used to make a fire in the low wooden cabinet next to the stove, and a wooden barrel was placed next to the low wooden cabinet, which contained two-thirds of the bucket of water.
"Looks like we can have a full meal before dawn and then get some rest!" Luo Fei, who found something to eat, was in a good mood, and when he saw Su Ruoying put two pieces of wood into the stove, he handed over a lighter and said.
Su Ruoying lit the wood and closed the furnace door, opened two cans of canned yellow peaches with a can opener and poured them into the pot, put the pot on the stove and heated it and said, "I don't know if we will be so lucky in the future, let's eat peaches first tonight, and leave the beef for the road behind to eat!" β
Because there was only one single bed in the room, as Su Ruoying's teammate, Luo Fei asked Su Ruoying to sleep very gentlemanly, and spread the quilt tied to the backpack on the ground and told Carl that the two of them would lie on it after eating.
Su Ruoying also tied a quilt to her backpack, so she took the quilt off the bed and gave it to Luo Fei and Kargai, and untied the quilt from the backpack and put it on the bed.
Carl apparently didn't have a problem with giving the bed to the girl, but the three of them still seemed to be silent when they shared the canned yellow peaches that had been boiled, and seemed to be still upset by the forcible intrusion of the three before.
Luo Fei deliberately opened the menu to check his physical condition before eating peaches.
The stamina has dropped to 36 after nearly two hours of walking, and now there is an upward arrow next to it to indicate a slow recovery.
The hunger value was only 39, and immediately after he took a bite of the yellow peach, two arrows appeared from the right side to indicate a faster recovery.
The thirst value is 29, and the reason for eating canned yellow peaches with soup makes the right side also have an upward arrow indicating a slow rise in thirst value.
The perceived temperature has risen to 20 due to the relationship between entering the house and starting a fire, and there are three arrows on the right to indicate a rapid rise.
According to Luo Fei's estimation from entering the dense forest to here, under the normal condition of maintaining a walking state, the hunger value should be 20 per hour, and the thirst value should be about 25 per hour.
