Having made up his mind, he stood up!
"You three stay here and keep watch over Jiang Yao. I'll go to the woods myself and take a look, see if I can find some more fresh water and food!"
Ning Shu was a little worried: "No, too dangerous. You can't act alone!"
Lu Zhe said: "It's less convenient with more people! I won't go too far. If anything happens, you can blow the whistle!"
"That's still not okay!" Ning Shu said categorically: "It was hard enough for us five companions to get together. Now to let you go into the woods alone, if something dangerous happens, how will we explain it to your parents?"
"But if we don't go, we might all die here!"
Tang Xiaoguo was also anxious: "Even if you're a bit unconventional, you're still our classmate. I won't let you take risks alone! If you insist on going, I can reluctantly accompany you!"
Lu Zhe sneered: "Tang Xiaoguo, who are you calling unconventional?"
Tang Xiaoguo stuck out her tongue awkwardly.
"If someone has to go, it should be me going with Lu Zhe!" Ning Shu stood up: "Xiaoguo, remember how you were walking in high heels earlier in the woods?"
Recalling the awkward scene of walking with one foot high and one foot low in high heels, Tang Xiaoguo nodded very helplessly!
"You stay at the campsite and take good care of Qianqian and YaoYao! If there's any real danger, just blow the whistle!"
Tang Xiaoguo reluctantly nodded: "Well...be careful!"
Lu Zhe also felt that having a sensible girl like Ning Shu with him, she might be helpful with some things, so he nodded: "Alright, let's go!"
"Which way should we go in?"
Lu Zhe surveyed the area and pointed to a relatively flat place to the southwest: "It's easier to enter the woods here. We'll mainly look for streams, berries or tubers!"
Ning Shu frowned: "Rodents? It's not rats, is it!"
"Tubers like sweet potatoes and yams, of course it would be even better to catch rats for the protein!"
Ning Shu shivered in disgust: "Ew, I hate rats the most!"
"Don't worry! When the time comes, you can call me and I'll take care of them!"
"You said it!"
Lu Zhe and Ning Shu put on the simple hats woven by Lin Qianqian to shield them from the blazing sun. Carrying a plastic bag with two empty bottles they had picked up, they walked into the jungle!
The terrain in the jungle was a bit high, overgrown with weeds and uneven pits and bumps!
Walking in such a place consumed a lot of strength.
After searching the grass for a while, Lu Zhe noticed that Ning Shu was having trouble walking.
"Class monitor, do you need to rest?"
Ning Shu leaned on her knees panting and nodded: "I just...haven't exercised much lately!"
"It's okay, I was thinking of taking a break too."
"I..." Ning Shu hesitated.
"What's wrong?"
"I drank water earlier, I shouldn't say this, but to be honest, I'm a little...thirsty!" She wiped the sweat from her head!
Lu Zhe knew that more than two hours had passed since they met. Between cooling down Jiang Yao with the "towel", setting up camp, Ning Shu had been busy the whole time.
Even though she had drunk a lot of fresh water earlier, after walking this way, with increasing sweat output, her body fluids were starting to go down!
Lu Zhe handed her the bottle and nodded towards it: "Any left?"
Knowing what Lu Zhe meant, Ning Shu blushed and said unpleasantly: "No!"
"It looks like most of the body fluids have already been excreted through the sweat glands. Otherwise I could take you back to camp!"
Ning Shu shook her head: "I'm fine! I can still endure. It's just my throat feels kind of smoky, maybe resting for a while will help..."
"Okay! You sit here for now, and I'll take a look around here!"
"Hey, don't... don't go too far!"
"Mm, I'll stay within 20 meters, within your field of vision. If I go too far, call for me!"
"Okay!"
Lu Zhe began searching around the area, but didn't find anything.
Coming to a clump of bushes, he discovered something.
Pushing aside the weeds, under the grass was a small patch of damp soil!
This place was lower-lying, Lu Zhe guessed it should be rainwater that had accumulated here, and because of the lush foliage in front blocking it, evaporation was delayed!
He dipped a finger in it, rubbed it between his fingers, then tasted it with his tongue!
No salty taste!
That meant the water in the mud was fresh water!
A message also appeared in his mind: Ding, new freshwater source discovered, potential points +1!
"Class monitor, come take a look!"
"Find something good?" Ning Shu asked curiously as she came over.
Lu Zhe held out his muddy finger under her nose.
Ning Shu wrinkled her nose: "What's this?"
"Wet soil, and the water inside is fresh water!"
"Don't tell me this stuff can be drunk?"
"Maybe after filtering it!"
"Filter it with... what? We don't have filter paper or measuring cups!"
"We don't have that..."
Lu Zhe opened the survival manual and found the corresponding solution.
It said to wrap cotton socks around the mud and squeeze it to filter it.
Lu Zhe was also helpless!
I'm asking you system, can't you give me some normal suggestions?!
ither go to a cultivation world where a single sword strike can defeat ten thousand enemies. Or they travel back to historical dynasties to alter history and wield imperial power. At the very least, they'd go back a few decades to get rich using their future knowledge and build a harem. Who the hell would transmigrate here!
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
