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?!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)

While others struggle desperately to break through their cultivation realms, he has long since reached the pinnacle of the Great Dao, becoming a reclusive Emperor whose true strength even he himself cannot fathom. Originally planning to lie low and retire peacefully on Purple Bamboo Peak, the system suddenly issues a new task — take on disciples. With no other choice, Gu Changge casually picks up a few disciples: The eldest disciple, born with a War God Constitution, is thrown a copy of "War God Stratagems" by him, and ends up conquering the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, becoming a peerless War God who sweeps across the cosmos. The second disciple, possessing a Chaos Sword Body, can break all techniques with a single sword, his swordsmanship unmatched throughout history. He points his sword at the heavens: "My master said, the sword and the man stand together. If the sword perishes... my master will give me another one." The third disciple, a reborn Empress who returns to her throne, her elegance and grace overshadowing all beings. And without anyone noticing, his own sect, the Qingxuan Sect, has become the number one sect on the continent. Looking at these unbelievably formidable disciples, Gu Changge, holding the "Primordial Purple Qi" he just signed in for, falls into deep thought: — Wasn't this supposed to be a peaceful retirement? How did I become the ultimate master?!
