Survival: Starting with a Tiny Treehouse

Chapter 320: Dramatic changes! Snow peaks stand tall!

Views:

The next day, when Xu Xin woke up, he was holding Li Wenxi in his arms, with tears on her face.

She was nestling in Xu Xin's arms, her gentle breath hitting his arm.

Xu Xin kissed her face gently, pulled his arm out from under her head, and sat up.

Hmm... My arm is numb and I have no feeling in it.

Li Wenxi hummed softly and hugged Xu Xin's waist in her sleep.

Xu Xin smiled and touched her face with his finger.

I have to say that he now feels refreshed, as if a heavy burden has been lifted and he feels relaxed all over.

Although he had a girlfriend before, this was the first time he did something like this.

After using the permanent divine oil, he can be said to become braver and braver with each battle.

This thing is really good, a good thing.

It was already seven in the morning, but it was still dark outside. The snow had stopped, and it was quiet outside, without even the sound of the wind, but with some fog. He was not surprised, as fog after snow was normal.

When his arm regained feeling, he gently pried Li Wenxi's hand apart and tried to get up, but ended up waking her up instead.

“Hmm…” Li Wenxi gently opened her eyes and looked at Xu Xin. Her hazy eyes gradually became clear, and then she revealed an expression that was a little shy and a little scared.

She sat up, and the thin quilt slipped off her body, exposing her body.

The scene in front of him made Xu Xin, who had tasted the sweetness of it, eyelids twitch, and he almost couldn't help himself again.

"You... please don't do it again, I really can't stand it..." Li Wenxi saw Xu Xin's eyes, moved back a little scared, then frowned and hummed softly: "Hmm..."

"Last night, it seemed like someone had been... "

"Ah! Stop talking!" Li Wenxi shouted, interrupting Xu Xin's words. Thinking of how crazy she was last night, her face gradually turned red from its original rosy color. Then she turned around and buried her head in the quilt, "How embarrassing!"

"...Aren't you really trying to seduce me with this posture?" Xu Xin's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help it again.

Li Wenxi quickly raised his head again, sat up, and looked at Xu Xin nervously.

Then both of them laughed.

"Okay." Xu Xin took out a pill, "Healing medicine, Sister Xuefei's new product, no side effects, take it, otherwise you will have difficulty moving today."

"Ah—" Li Wenxi opened her mouth and waited for Xu Xin to feed her. Xu Xin also smiled and stuffed the pill into her mouth.

"how?"

"Hmm... I'm almost recovered!" Li Wenxi twisted her body, her eyes lit up, "I don't feel uncomfortable anymore! Sister Xuefei's medicine is really amazing! If I had known earlier, I should have used it last night, then you wouldn't have bullied me like that!"

"Then I will..."

"No, no, no..."

The two did not do that again. Instead, they put on their clothes, sat on the bed, and leaned against each other tenderly.

As for why he had to wear clothes, it was because Xu Xin couldn't help himself without them.

Be moderate. Broad daylight is not the time to do that kind of thing.

He swiped his watch and glanced at the world channel.

"It's so foggy outside today, it affects our vision!"

"The price of ironware in our district has dropped significantly. Haha, those big guys who occupied the resources and refused to share them are finally willing to give in!"

"That's right. The prices of iron weapons and armor in our area have also dropped a lot. Although they are not yet as high as the prices sold by the elders in District 188 on the World Channel, they are still much lower than before!"

"Fuck, is there anyone in your area who can make iron tools? I am in tears. We have never heard of such a thing as iron tools in our area..."

"Don't panic. After the elders of District 188 released the iron weapons last night, the elders of District 1 couldn't sit still. They also started releasing armor and iron weapons to the World Trading Platform. Moreover, it is said that a blue-level iron weapon was put on the shelves! But I didn't see it. I heard that it was bought by someone instantly."

"Blue-grade iron! Green-grade iron is almost the same as blue-grade stone. Blue-grade iron... just thinking about it makes it very powerful!"

Oh? Ironware prices have dropped significantly on regional trading platforms in many regions, and District 1 has also started selling ironware on the world trading platform

It seems that other powerful regions can't help but want a share of the cake. This is not only a matter of resources, but also a matter of people's hearts.

Those weak regions are likely to join other regions in the future. What Xu Xin and Ji Chaoyang have done has made District 188 taller in the eyes of these survivors. If other regions don't take action, District 188 may really be the only dominant region.

It would be fine if they could coexist peacefully, but the powerful districts basically know that only one region will remain in the future. They don't want to live under someone else's roof, and they don't want to die, so they can only compete with Xu Xin and others.

Li Wenxi also saw it. She leaned in Xu Xin's arms and chuckled, "These guys will never imagine that the iron tools released last night only consumed a small half of my inventory, and my mining speed is much faster than theirs."

… As expected of a wealthy woman, she gave him several thousand green-grade iron blocks yesterday, and gave Ji Chaoyang the same amount. In the end, it was only a small half of the stock…

"Do you want to roll up your sleeves, Xu Xin? I have plenty of materials anyway, so I might as well continue to lower the price and defeat them!" Li Wenxi raised his head and looked at Xu Xin's profile.

"Hmm... It doesn't seem appropriate to completely tear each other apart now. If we show too much strength, it will easily lead to the previous regions uniting together." Xu Xin thought for a moment and said, "If they unite, it will not be a good thing for the present or the future. Let's stabilize it first and see how it goes."

"Okay, I'll listen to you!" Li Wenxi leaned in his arms and closed her eyes, as if she wanted to sleep a little longer.

"Okay, get up."

The two men stood up and walked out of the house.

On the other side, Coco also crawled out from another room. When it saw Xu Xin and Li Wenxi, it made a puzzled "Huh?" sound, as if to say, I didn't seem to sleep in this room last night

"Coco!" Li Wenxi picked up Coco and hugged her hard.

“Hmm?!”

Silver King Mimi and Ah Fu were both awake at this time, and were a little surprised to see Li Wenxi. When Li Wenxi came last night, they were still sleeping.

Xu Xin walked to the window and looked out. He wanted to see how thick the snow was outside the window.

"Huh?" The scene before him made his eyes slightly widen and his eyebrows gradually frowned.

He rubbed his eyes, thinking that he had gone too far last night and was now seeing hallucinations.

But when he opened his eyes again, the scene he saw was still very shocking.

"What's going on?"

"What's wrong?" Li Wenxi held Keke and walked to the window. "What's outside the window that makes you... Huh? Huh?!"

"嘤!" Coco jumped out of Li Wenxi's arms, jumped onto the windowsill, lay on the window and looked out.

Outside the window, the snowy scene is clearly visible in the mist.

The snow was very thick. Judging from the surrounding trees, the depth of the snow was about the same as Xu Xin's guess, close to two meters. If someone got stuck in it, they would probably not be able to get out without some means.

However, what surprised them both was not the expected thickness of the snow.

The two of them stared blankly at the distance ahead, and then their gazes gradually moved upwards.

A mountain that should not have appeared appeared in the swirling mist like a mirage.

About less than a kilometer away from the tree house, there is an extremely high mountain standing upright, reaching into the sky!

The mountains appear very hazy in the fog, and a feeling of mystery and majesty comes to you!

No, perhaps it would be more appropriate to call it a stone pillar rather than a mountain.

The tall stone pillars with straight edges and corners and the white snow hanging on the stone walls make the entire stone pillar present a clear color difference, which makes it look more visually impactful.

The mountain peak pierces straight into the clouds, and above the halfway point, there is even thicker fog, with most of the mountain vaguely visible in the fog.

So high! Higher than the clouds!

Xu Xin had also seen similar stone pillars on Earth.

If there are more than one stone pillar and they form a forest, then this landform will have a resounding name: Zhangjiajie landform!

This is a type of landform landscape dominated by tall, straight-angled stone pillars, formed with quartz sandstone as the parent rock by water erosion, gravity collapse, weathering and other forces.

He had once been fortunate enough to witness that majestic and beautiful sight. Every stone pillar there was very similar to the giant stone pillars in front of him, which were only a thousand meters away from him!

but…

Xu Xin raised his head and looked towards the top of the stone pillar.

Although the stone pillars on the earth are more than one thousand meters above sea level, that is because the overall terrain is high, and the relative height of each stone pillar is less than two hundred meters at most.

But the height of this stone pillar...

Thousands of meters

It must be over a thousand meters, right? !

Moreover, the ratio of the height to thickness of the giant stone pillar in front of him did not seem exaggerated. The thickness of this giant stone pillar was also much thicker than any other stone pillar he had seen in the stone pillar forest before!

This stone pillar, this giant peak, is just a proportionally enlarged forest of stone pillars!

It suddenly appeared, rising thousands of meters above the ground, without even a sound!

Don’t think that a thousand meters is too short for a mountain. There is a whole plain nearby, and the highest hill is only a hundred meters!

Suddenly, a huge stone pillar peak over a thousand meters high appeared. It was really shocking!

Mount Tai, the most majestic of the Five Great Mountains, has an altitude of only over 1,500 meters. The altitude of any stone on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is many times higher than it. It is not the highest among the Five Great Mountains, but it is known as the place closest to the sky, attracting emperors of all generations to come here to offer sacrifices to heaven.

This is because Mount Tai rises from a plain, making all the other mountains look small. Whether it is at the bottom of the mountain or on the top, it gives people a great visual shock!

This giant stone pillar has the same feeling! Moreover, because it appeared overnight and stood tall in the mist, it was even more shocking!

Xu Xin immediately looked around, he wanted to see if there were any other stone pillars or giant peaks.

But unfortunately, the fog blocked the view, and the stone pillar peak less than a kilometer away was enough to

The air was a little turbid and it was difficult to see far away. The giant stone peak, which was only a thousand meters away, was a little blurry in the sight, not to mention the farther places, which were impossible to see clearly at all.

The whole jungle seemed to be shrouded in severe smog.

"This... why did a mountain suddenly appear?" Li Wenxi stared at the mountain in a daze. She thought of something and lowered her sight to glance at a certain part of Xu Xin. "... just like something, the change is so sudden!"

"What are you talking about!" Xu Xin patted her on the back of the head and laughed angrily, "You're still in the mood to joke now!"

"It really does look a bit like him..." Li Wenxi covered the back of his head and muttered with his head down.

Xu Xin looked towards Shi Feng, his eyes gradually narrowing.

The direction of this huge stone pillar peak is northwest. The huge peak just blocked the direction of the hilly resource area, making him completely unable to see that side.

On the map, in the hilly resource area, the red dot with the same brightness as the giant anaconda in the center of the lake that appeared in the beast tide yesterday appeared again! Moreover, around the bright red dot, there were densely packed small red dots.

What's going on? The mutants are gathering around the giant beast

"Do you feel that the outside is a bit like... um... a fairyland?" Li Wenxi stared at the giant peak surrounded by mist and clouds with wide eyes. "This towering giant peak really looks like the residence of the immortals in the legend! Is there really an immortal on the top of this mountain?"

"… Maybe it's really what you said." Hearing Li Wenxi's words, Xu Xin raised his eyebrows. The stone pillars that went straight up to the sky were surrounded by clouds and mist, and it really felt like a fairy mountain.

What secrets are hidden in this huge stone pillar that suddenly rises from the ground

Do I have to climb up to find out

He took out the hook he bought from the points mall from his backpack.

This is a mechanical device that can be worn on the wrist to control launch and recovery.

Retractable hook (blue): A hook that can firmly grasp the rock wall or ice after being launched. Snowy mountains are not easy to climb, and the hook is a must!

No wonder, no wonder this kind of thing is sold in the points mall!

He used to think that the hook was basically useless in the jungle, so where would the snow-capped mountains be for him to climb

Unexpectedly, the next day, a snowy mountain really rose from the ground and stood right in front of us!

Xu Xin immediately opened the Explorer.

Everyone has heard the news in the Explorer.

Qi Xuefei: "We are surrounded by fog, and the visible distance is a bit short. Why did the fog suddenly appear?"

Zhao Xiaochuan: "Fuck, the snow outside is too thick, isn't it? This... is at least two meters deep, right?"

Qin Yunlong: "It snowed too heavily yesterday..."

Wen Guixin: "Didn't you see it? There's a super high mountain right between our tree houses!"

Qin Yunhu: "What?"

Wang Lei: "Mountain? Is this an illusion? A mirage?"

really!

Sure enough, they had one too! There was one near Wen Guixin's tree house, but none near anyone else's tree house.

Xu Xin: "I also have a huge stone pillar-shaped peak here, about a thousand meters away from my tree house."

Ji Chaoyang: "What Xu Xin said is right. There is a very high mountain standing near his tree house. I can see it from here. It shouldn't be an illusion."

Wen Guixin: "Right! This mountain is super high. It suddenly appeared next to me. It was so shocking. I felt like it was going to fall down..."

Can Ji Chaoyang see it

He must be at least 20 kilometers away from here, right? It was all white one kilometer away, and nothing could be seen. How did Ji Chaoyang see it

Oh, and snow goggles (blue)!

Snow goggles (blue), with anti-fog effect!

It seems that the special functions of the blue-level equipment in the points mall are basically not wasted!

Sure enough, Ji Chaoyang immediately said in the group: "You all, put on blue-level snow goggles, and you will be able to see."

Xu Xin immediately took out his goggles and put them on.

"Snow goggles? Ah!" Li Wenxi also thought of the principle behind it, so he took out his goggles and put them on his face.

In an instant, the whole world became much clearer. Although it was not as good as the usual vision, it was still no problem to see a few kilometers away. Anything farther away would become hazy again, but at least it would not be completely unclear.

“There are so many stone pillars and giant peaks!” Li Wenxi exclaimed.

In the hazy distance, in the lingering mist, Xu Xin could see many huge peaks rising from the ground. In his sight, six or seven stone pillars appeared. However, in their area, there was only one near his tree house.

Judging from visual observation, the distance between each giant peak is about sixty to seventy kilometers.

Sixty or seventy kilometers

The distance is not short. Silver King has to run for nearly an hour. If he uses a powered snowboard, it will take at least two hours!

Suddenly, countless snow-capped peaks appeared in this world.

What do these snow-capped peaks represent
