Chapter 32: Night Talk
After putting away the design drawings, Ye Chen took out the other superfluous things and fused them, and obtained a third-order fishing net and a third-order dagger.
Looking at the three sea salt extractors in the system warehouse again, Ye Chen thought about it and decided to fuse this thing and obtain a second-order sea salt extractor.
The sea salt extractor can be opened directly from the material box, Ye Chen estimated that everyone else should have already opened this thing, after all, this is not a rare thing.
Rare things are expensive, and when others have this thing in their hands, this thing has no value, and it is better to merge it into a higher level.
It's just that there is nothing to make a fire yet, and if others want to get sea salt, it is estimated that they can only rely on the sun.
The things to be fused have been fused, and Ye Chen focused his attention on the other things that were newly opened, and the one that made him pay the most attention was the torch.
Today is already the sixth day, Ye Chen opened I don't know how many material boxes to open a torch, if you count according to the number of material boxes opened, the others don't know how long it will take to start a fire by themselves.
When I took out the torch, I saw a cylindrical wooden stick about 3 cm in diameter, about 30 cm long, and when I looked up, I saw that there was a piece of cloth wrapped around the stick, and a small flame was burning on the cloth.
Ye Chen had never seen this kind of thing before, but he had seen it on some TVs, and he didn't expect that he would be able to have such a torch one day.
Because of Xiaobai, the torch is of little use to Ye Chen, Xiaobai can ignite the wood at once, and he doesn't know how long it will take to burn with this torch.
Besides, this torch doesn't look big, and the ghost knows how long it will last, and if the fire goes out after a few uses, I'll be upset.
After putting away the torches, Ye Chen got up and walked to the left side of the wooden house, used two soil improvement cards to get two 1*5 pieces of land, and planted the loquat seeds he had just obtained.
The weather at night is still very good, even if the moon is not full, it can illuminate the dark earth.
By the moonlight, Ye Chen slowly walked towards the farm, and saw the lights on the farm from afar, which made Ye Chen envious, he didn't have the tools to light it himself, but the farm was brightly lit.
When you come to the farm, you can see white lights everywhere, on the fence, on the roof, or on the lampposts in the open field.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Ye Chen was thinking about whether to come here to live, such a good environment was simply heaven for him.
After a walk around the farm, Ye Chen found the farm robot in the building where the animals were raised.
When he found the robot, the other party was standing outside an iron cage, holding the bread given by Ye Chen in his hand and breaking it into minced pieces little by little, and then putting the minced pieces in the feeding area of the iron cage.
Inside the iron cage, there are six fluffy chicks, swaying their bodies, slowly walking towards the area where the bread crumbs are kept.
The six chicks hatched tonight, just now the robot was feeding them their first meal.
In addition to them, there were four slightly larger chickens in the cage on the side, which were the four chicks hatched by Ye Chen before, and even Ye Chen didn't expect that this chick would grow so quickly.
After feeding the chickens, the robot walked in another direction, and Ye Chen took a look and found that there were still two yellow ducklings rolling in the cage here.
After the robot finished feeding the chickens, Ye Chen walked over and stopped the robot, handed over the newly opened seeds to the other party, and released the two sheep in the warehouse.
Just as he was about to leave, the robot stopped Ye Chen; "Master, the farm water needs to be provided additionally, the current water on the farm is the water storage system, according to the current situation, the water stored in the water storage system can only be used for three days, please provide external water sources as soon as possible."
"Uh." Hearing the robot's words, Ye Chen was also stunned, he thought that this rural village had its own water source, but he didn't expect that he still needed to provide it himself.
Tell the robot to settle down and he'll figure it out, then turns around and leaves the farm.
When he walked outside the farm, Ye Chen looked back at the farm full of modern atmosphere, and there was only envy in his eyes.
Envy is envy, let him live with Li Yuxin and them in this kind of place, he must be unwilling, not to mention the smell of the farm, just the sound of various animals every day can annoy him.
Back at the wooden house, my parents had already taken a shower and gone to rest, and they were very tired now after a busy day.
After looking around, Ye Chen didn't see Li Yuxin, and after he calmed down, he heard a sound of water coming from the bathroom, and it turned out that the other party went to take a bath.
Coming to the bathroom, Ye Chen knocked lightly on the wooden door and whispered, "Yuxin, do you want to help you wash your clothes." ”
In the bathroom, Li Yuxin, who had finished taking a shower, was washing clothes at this time, and was startled when he heard someone knocking on the door.
"Wait a minute." After responding to Ye Chen's voice, Li Yuxin continued to wash the clothes in the wooden basin, and had already washed them briefly just now, just wash them again.
didn't wait long, the door of the bathroom opened from the inside, Li Yuxin handed out his washed clothes through the crack in the door, and Ye Chen, who had been guarding the door, also took the clothes as soon as possible.
Like yesterday, today Li Yuxin still washed all his clothes, thinking that Li Yuxin inside was naked at this time, the little devil in Ye Chen's heart kept tempting him, making him very eager to open the door to see Li Yuxin's current appearance.
Shaking his head to sober himself up, the little devil in Ye Chen's heart was still pressed down by the little angel, and walked out of the wooden house with his clothes.
Because he didn't want Li Yuxin to get cold, Ye Chen quickly rushed to Xiaobai, and after steaming and drying his clothes, he quickly rushed back, and the time before and after was only two or three minutes.
Back outside the bathroom, Ye Chen called Li Yuxin softly, and after Li Yuxin opened the door a little, he handed over the clothes along the crack in the door.
After the clothes were handed over, Li Yuxin closed the door of the bathroom, and then there was a sound of rustling from inside, and Ye Chen, who was standing outside the door, was itching.
After waiting for a while, Li Yuxin got dressed and came out of the bathroom, and when she saw that Ye Chen was still guarding the door, her face turned red all of a sudden, and after handing over the barrel and basin to the other party, she went to find Xiaobai.
Xiaobai's microwave controller can perfectly control the microwave in an area, and Li Yuxin's freshly washed hair makes Xiaobai dry out after a while, which is better than a hair dryer I don't know how many times.
Taking the wooden barrel and tub handed over by Li Yuxin, Ye Chen came to the earthen stove outside the wooden house, filled a bucket of water and went to the bathroom to take a bath.
Men generally take a bath much faster than women, and by the time Li Yuxin came back, Ye Chen had already finished taking a bath, and even his clothes had already been washed.
Li Yuxin, who returned, saw Ye Chen coming out of the bathroom, thinking that the other party hadn't taken a bath yet, and said softly: "Ye Chen, you go take a bath." ”
"Washed up." After responding to Li Yuxin, Ye Chen walked out of the wooden house in wet clothes and walked towards Xiaobai, leaving Li Yuxin alone on the bed in a daze.
"So fast?" After thinking about it for a long time, Li Yuxin didn't understand why Ye Chen finished taking a shower so quickly, could it be that he had just spent a long time looking for Xiaobai?
After being stunned for a while, Li Yuxin also came back to her senses, no longer thinking about this kind of headache that gave her a headache, and lay on the bed while resting while waiting for Ye Chen to come back.
It didn't take long for Ye Chen, who had dried his clothes, to come back, and seeing that Li Yuxin on the bed was still asleep, he looked puzzled and asked softly, "Don't you sleep yet, it's almost eleven o'clock." ”
didn't answer Ye Chen's question, Li Yuxin got up and pulled Ye Chen to the bed, pulled an arm over to pilllow it, and moved his body to find a comfortable position to lie down.
Ye Chen, who was passively bearing all this, is now dumbfounded, good guy, I said why don't you sleep, it turned out to be waiting for me.
After Li Yuxin lay down in Ye Chen's arms, she didn't close her eyes and sleep immediately, but opened her eyes wide, quietly in a daze, and didn't know what she was thinking.
Ye Chen, who was lying on the side, originally thought that Li Yuxin had fallen asleep, but after waiting for a while, he didn't feel any change in Li Yuxin's breathing, and he was puzzled, turned his head to look at Li Yuxin, and found that she was in a daze with her eyes open.
shook it in front of Li Yuxin's eyes with his other hand, and found that the other party still reacted, Ye Chen's hanging heart also relaxed, and asked softly: "What's the matter, what are you thinking about again?" ”
"It's not a bad thing." Li Yuxin responded lightly: "Ye Chen, do you think we will stay like this forever?" ”
"Huh?" Ye Chen was even more puzzled: "What do you mean?" ”
Glancing at Ye Chen, Li Yuxin explained: "Is it that we will live like this forever?" No friends, no life, no civilization, it's like finding an island with no one to fend for itself. ”
Hearing Li Yuxin say this, Ye Chen also understood the other party's question, and after thinking for a while, he replied: "It shouldn't be, although we don't have anything now, we will definitely have it in the future, do you remember the teleportation stone that reunited us?" When we have the ability, we can let other people come to live on the island together, and with people, other problems are not a problem. ”
"When will that be?" After getting Ye Chen's answer, Li Yuxin was also a little impatient.
Although it feels good to live with Ye Chen now, what about in the future? Is it just that the four of them have been living together like this?
When will the status quo be changed, Ye Chen can't give Li Yuxin an accurate answer, and said softly: "I don't know when, we can only maintain the most basic life now, no one knows what will happen in the future, and besides, I can't control the people who come here, they want to do sabotage or want to do other things, I can't stop it, what if I let strangers come here, they want to kill us, or bully you, what should I do?" ”
"Woo......" pouted, and Li Yuxin didn't continue the discussion.
Just like Ye Chen said just now, there are still many problems that need to be solved, otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable, it is better to continue to live together as an honest family, at least now you don't have to worry about eating and drinking, and you don't have to worry about starving to death.
Seeing Li Yuxin like this, Ye Chen didn't say anything, reached out and touched Li Yuxin's hair, comforted the other party, and then said gently: "Sleep, have a sweet dream, I always think about these things that make me unhappy, I really don't know what to say about you." ”
This time, Li Yuxin didn't have anything else to do, she closed her eyes and went to sleep, as for whether she could have a sweet dream, who knows.
After Li Yuxin fell asleep, Ye Chen opened the system interface and harvested the black crystals inside, and when the harvest was completed, there were 228,770 of them.
It's just that the black crystals obtained today are no longer many times higher than before, and compared to yesterday's number, it has only increased by half.
According to the previous method, Ye Chen continued to spread the island outward, using all the black crystals, and by the time the expansion was completed, the island area had reached 380,312.
After doing this, Ye Chen had nothing else to do, and hugged Li Yuxin and fell asleep.
