"Placing it where we can see it brings people hope, but it may also bring people despair like destruction," Lu Chu repeated 7's words, and said to himself, "That is to say, in fact, no matter where we go , that tower will appear where we can see it—this is hope; but the 'rule' itself wants to see the disappointment after our hope, so while we see this tower, it must not be in safe place."
Song Gui nodded: "It makes sense."
Yuan Kejie was puzzled: "If that's the case, then the tower wouldn't appear beside those monsters, right?"
Thinking of those guys' densely packed and disgusting arms, Yuan Kejie only felt terrified and her scalp went numb.
Lu Chu looked at her: "This possibility is not ruled out, or rather, this is the greatest possibility."
At this time, Luo Qi showed unrelenting expression, and interjected: "There have been so many escapes from the dead, and the bad taste of the 'rules' has always been very good."
Lu Chu didn't know whether she was referring to the "Monopoly" game or all the life and death she had experienced in the past, but he didn't ask much.
The meaning of hope itself may be to make people more desperate, but Lu Chu has long decided to turn hope into reality.
That's all.
Because of crossing the river, the clothes of several people were soaked and stuck tightly to their bodies. On a moonlit night, with the breeze blowing, several people shivered from the cold.
Immediately, Yuan Kejie sneezed loudly.
Seeing this, Lu Chu said: "Light a fire, don't catch a cold."
Song Gui looked around: "Our tools are all abandoned, if we want to start a fire, we have to drill wood to make fire."
Yuan Kejie's eyes lit up when she heard the words, and she raised her hand to signal, "I'm good at this!"
Luo Qi echoed: "You are really good at this kind of thing."
"So, I really need it for home and travel." Yuan Kejie sighed to himself while picking up dry firewood of suitable shape.
Lu Chu leaned forward and wanted to learn how she made a fire. It was a good survival skill.
Yuan Kejie knelt down and fiddled with them, and said to the others: "Comrades, help me pick up some finely divided dry firewood."
After Lu Chu and the others heard the words, they scattered and picked up a lot of firewood nearby. Yuan Kejie took a look and praised: "Not bad."
I saw Yuan Kejie put a curved firewood on a dry leaf, and then used another straight firewood to inlay the curved part of the firewood on the leaf, rubbing her hands constantly. Soon there was a little burning smell, and at the same time, fine black powder fell on the dry leaves that had been laid in advance. When Yuan Kejie felt that the amount of powder was about the same, she walked to the nearby bushes and found a cotton-like plant. She took out the cotton inside and tore it into soft cotton candy.
Carefully pouring the black powder she just collected into the cotton, she wrapped the powder in the cotton like a dumpling, pinched the outer part, and smiled: "Next is the moment to witness the miracle!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she shook the cotton in her hand from side to side. Immediately, the cotton ignited. Yuan Kejie quickly threw the burning cotton into the pile of dead firewood prepared earlier, and fanned it with her hands. The pile of firewood slowed down. It burned slowly.
"Papapa—" Song Gui applauded, "Perfect."
Lu Chu also applauded. This skill is worth learning.
Yuan Kejie laughed even harder: "Thank you comrades for your support!"
Luo Qi's focus is different from other people's. She looked at the burning fire, sat down on the ground casually, and asked Yuan Kejie, "I'm curious, where did you learn these strange things?" skills, as well as making fire, and picking locks.”
Yuan Kejie scratched her head shyly: "I like watching survival shows."
It is rare for Qian Zhen to praise: "It's amazing." He refers to the fact that after watching the show, he can remember the process and take action to achieve success.
While they were chatting, 7 had started a few more fires and led Lu Chu aside to let him sit down and enjoy the fire. After Lu Chu sat down, 7 himself stood in the upperwind of Lu Chu, shielding him from the occasional slight night wind.
After Lu Chu found out, he pulled Qi by the corner of his clothes and looked up at him with wet eyes: "You sit too."
Looking into Lu Chu's eyes, Qi felt soft in his heart.
In fact, in the past countless years, the survival skills of 7 have long been full, and things like lighting a fire are just the most basic, but since Yuan Kejie knows it, there is no need for him to raise it.
It's just that this matter now made him realize that he still has too much to teach Lu Chu, and he can't be sloppy in front of any little one.
He is obsessed with the softness and warmth of Lu Chu's heart, but he also hopes that he can be sharp.
If one day, he can no longer continue to guard Lu Chu's side, Lu Chu has been invincible and invincible.
———
The few people who had been running around for too long dried their clothes, and then took turns sleeping on duty.
Nothing happened overnight.
It seems that the obstacles brought by the river to the monsters are very great, allowing them to get such a long rest time.
Of course, they are not sure whether the multi-armed monster is dead in the water, nor are they sure whether there are other dangers besides the monster and the multi-armed monster in the first round. , They have never let down their vigilance.
At this time, it was already bright, and several people had already eaten compressed biscuits, and used the big bowl-shaped leaves to catch some clean dew to replenish their physical strength.
"Next, where are you going?" Yuan Kejie looked at Lu Chu and asked.
The towers will appear in the evening, and their positions are not fixed. They are surrounded by dangers and are not safe. It is not a good choice to sit and wait for death.
Since the tower will appear where they can see it and where it is dangerous, they should be farther away from the river that traps the multi-armed monster, otherwise, will the tower appear in a place that must pass through the multi-armed monster? The location is unknown.
Lu Chu told others about his thoughts, and they all agreed.
"That's good," Lu Chu said, "continue to run against those guys."
After speaking, Lu Chu pointed to the direction behind him.
This time, the few people didn't have to run anymore, and it was daytime again, so the danger was greatly reduced.
Yuan Kejie looked at the outline of the forest that was clearer during the day, and said softly, "The air is good."
Song Gui said: "It's very refreshing."
Qian Zhenmo remained silent, while Luo Qi rolled her eyes at Song Gui while carrying her shovel, resisting the urge to throw the shovel over.
Song Gui spread his hands: "It's not me who started it, Lu Xiaochu, right?"
Lu Chu could feel Luo Qi's targeting of Song Gui, but this kind of "targeting" was not an actual hostility, so he didn't care about the episode of the two all the time, and now he just nodded with a light smile.
7 has been walking beside Lu Chu, holding the Japanese sword on his waist.
