Starting Off Survival With A Small Treehouse

Sitting under the tree house, Xu Xin silently looked at the sun that was gradually setting to the west.

He knew why he couldn't go up.

Because the root that pulled him up is actually the aerial root of the banyan tree, a type of adventitious root, and it is also a root after all. Since the root is developing again, the root will naturally temporarily stop the function of entering and exiting the tree house.

It's too difficult, you can't even go up and lie down.

After sitting for a while, Xu Xin decided to do something.

Xu Xin looked at his backpack. There were stone spears, stone axes, stone picks, stone shovels, gold treasure chests, several bottles of water, and several kinds of fruits in it. These things alone almost occupied the 10 grids in his backpack. .

Because of this, he put fertilizer and seeds in the tree house when he came out last night, which made him unable to plant birch and pine trees now.

"The grid is still not enough, you still need a more advanced backpack."

"...Let's cut down an area first. Otherwise, there will be no place to plant these two kinds of trees."

Xu Xin first took out the treasure chest from the backpack and placed it next to the root of the tree house. This thing is heavy enough even if it is placed in a backpack, and it will affect the work on the body.

He took the drowsy Coco off his shoulders and placed it on top of the treasure chest.

Coco hummed weakly, and slightly opened his eyes.

"Help me look at the golden treasure box, don't let someone pick it up." Xu Xin joked to Ke Ke, after all, there are no other people around here.

Ke Ke's little head nodded slightly, then curled up again and continued to sleep.

Xu Xin took out his stone axe, found an area with a lot of green-grade soil beside the tree house, and started felling indiscriminately, and put the felled wood directly into his backpack.

His stone ax is blue-level, and the cutting speed is very fast. One poplar tree (white) and two poplar trees (green) were knocked down. It didn't take long to clear an area.

70% of the soil in this area is green-grade, and Xu Xin does not plan to deal with the remaining 30% of the white soil. After all, the size of a piece of soil is only about one square meter. The land is planted with trees, so that's enough for now.

Xu Xin ran to the lake again, collected some reeds, and dug some lotus roots for dinner tonight.

Lotus root with bear meat, perfect.

Before leaving the lake, Xu Xin looked at the piranhas in the middle of the lake.

... Sure enough, he still felt that the piranha's range of activities seemed to have expanded a bit. Although it was not much, it was indeed a little closer to him.

It seems that I have to figure out a way, how to get rid of these piranhas.

If the situation is allowed to continue, when the piranha's activities expand to the entire lake, not only will all the other fish and shrimp in the lake suffer, even his access to the lake to collect water may be affected.

If these piranhas swim into the creek... Xu Xin can't imagine the scene.

I don't know if the giant crocodiles in the creek can solve these piranhas.

[The secondary growth of the root system of the tree house is completed, and the protection area of ​​the tree house is expanded to a radius of six kilometers. 】

Suddenly a notification sounded in Xu Xin's ear, and he was overjoyed that he could finally go home!

Coco, who had slept for two hours, had woken up at this time, and was sitting blankly on the golden treasure chest.

"Go up to Cocoa, go home."

"Hmm."

Xu Xin put the gold treasure box into the backpack, and the wood and gold treasure box in the backpack made him a little overwhelmed, so he quickly carried Coco into the tree house.

After putting all the felled wood on the first floor, Xu Xin returned to his third floor.

"It's comfortable!" He threw his backpack on the ground, and his whole body fell on the plank bed. The wooden bed has the effect of quickly restoring physical strength and spirit. Just lying on the bed made Xu Xin feel a little relaxed.

Coco curled up on the bed and fell asleep again.

But Xu Xin didn't rest too much, she just lay down for a while and then sat up.

The moment he sat up, the mysterious voice sounded again.

[The jungle exploration event is over. Congratulations to all the survivors who found the treasure chest and obtained limited resources during this exploration event. You are excellent tree house explorers. 】

[Survivors who haven’t found the treasure chest, don’t be discouraged, this is just the first step, and you still have the possibility to catch them. 】

[Now, the regional leaderboard of this event is announced, and the top 100 will receive corresponding rewards. Survivors are invited to check it on the screen in the tree house. 】

[The last 50 survivors, you still have the last 10 minutes, say goodbye to the world. 】

Xu Xin hurried to the screen, clicked on the screen, and saw that another option was unlocked, [Leaderboard].

Click on this option, and there is only one activity in the options at this time, [Jungle Exploration Activity], which can be selected.

Continue to click, and a leaderboard appeared in front of his eyes.

[The first place, Xu Xin, opened the gold, silver, and copper treasure chests, and obtained some other materials, the highest blue level. 】

[The second place, Ji Chaoyang, opened the gold, silver, and copper treasure chests, and obtained some other materials, the highest blue level. 】

[Wen Guixin, the third place, opened the silver and copper treasure boxes, and obtained some other materials, the highest blue level. 】

[The fourth place, Li Wenxi, opened the silver and copper treasure chests, and obtained some other materials, the highest blue level. 】

...

[The 7132nd Lu Renjia did not get the treasure box or any other supplies. 】

The last place is No. 7132.

"I can't be anonymous anymore." Xu Xin actually didn't really want to put her name on the top of the ranking list, because it would cause some unnecessary troubles, "Forget it, let's use my real name."

Xu Xin looked down, her eyes fixed, and she saw the person in the second place.

Ji Chaoyang.

The name Xu Xin is too familiar. During the novice protection period, he was advising everyone. The strategy posted on the regional channel during the beast riot made the death rate in the entire region far lower than the world average, saving many lives.

"Did he actually find the treasure chest? Does that mean he also knows the secrets of this world?" Xu Xin murmured.

When the secret was discovered before, that mysterious voice once said, [Don’t share the secrets of the world with those who don’t know the secrets], but what if it’s someone who knows the secrets?

If it is someone who knows the secret, can we exchange some information with him?

"Does this person have the same special ability as me, or did he get the treasure chest by himself? No matter the former or the latter, they are both big men worth making friends with." Xu Xin thought silently.

Continuing to look down, Xu Xin saw Li Wenxi's name in the fourth place.

Good guy, has this little beauty opened the silver treasure chest?

Seeing that Li Wenxi's name was in the fourth place, Xu Xin fell into deep thought.

Before that, he always thought that this little beauty was a cheerful little rich woman from the European Emperor, but now it seems that this is not the case. It is absolutely impossible to rank fourth out of 10,000 people just by luck.

When chatting with her before, she seemed to describe the process of obtaining the copper treasure chest lightly in one sentence. Although the whole body was covered with injuries, it did not show the weakness of the injured person, but was a little excited.

Now she has the Silver Chest again.

Xu Xin didn't know how other people got the silver treasure chest, but from the whole ranking, including him and Ji Chaoyang, there were only nine people who got the silver treasure chest, and Li Wenxi ranked fourth among the nine people .

She is definitely not as innocent as she looks on the surface. Like Xu Xin herself, she is definitely hiding something.
