Chapter 7 Cans and Pigs
After obtaining the crossbow blueprint, Zhang Tuohai moved to the manufacturing interface.
"I have detected the blueprints for the crossbow and lightweight tire. We have all the resources. Would you like to manufacture them?"
"Sure."
The liquid in the two drawings and paintings disappeared, and most of the resources thrown on the back seat were reduced . A moment later, four tires and a small crossbow appeared in front of Zhang Tuohai.
【Lightweight tire: Level 1 vehicle accessory, can reduce fuel consumption by 30%. 】
How do I install this thing?
Do I have to load it into the car myself?
But I don’t have a wrench or a jack, what should I do?
Just when Zhang Tuohai was at a loss, the game system gave a hint.
[Level 1 lightweight tires detected, would you like to replace the existing ordinary tires? ]
Can it be completed with system assistance?
"Sure."
The four tires disappeared, and then the car shook.
【The tire has been replaced. 】
"It's really convenient." For the first time, Zhang Tuohai felt a little favorable towards the game system.
[Found 4 ordinary tires. Do you want to decompose them into resources? They can be decomposed into: 20 low-grade rubber, 20 metal fragments, 16 metal parts]
"Let's not disassemble it yet." Looking at the four tires on the back seat of the car, Zhang Tuohai hesitated and gave up disassembling it.
This tire might be useful in the future, so let's just leave it like this for now.
After dealing with the tire, Zhang Tuohai stared at the crossbow placed on the passenger seat.
The crossbow is only half a foot long, with a gun-like handle and a trigger underneath, so it can be easily used with one hand.
Next to it was a pure leather quiver, which contained ten crossbow arrows that were flashing with cold light.
Zhang Tuohai picked up the crossbow, played with it for a while, and became familiar with how to use it.
It’s a pity that there are no good targets around, so it’s impossible to measure the strength of the crossbow.
However, judging by the strength of the bowstring, it should be no problem to kill a chicken within 50 meters.
After playing with the crossbow for a while, it became completely dark.
The pitch-black sky covered the earth like a black pot lid, with only a few sparse stars scattered in the sky, casting a little light.
Sitting in the car, Zhang Tuohai felt increasingly cold. His hands and feet were icy and he was shivering from the cold.
"This damn place is so hot during the day, why is it so cold at night?" Zhang Tuohai hurriedly took out his coat from the back seat and put it on.
After putting on the coat, Zhang Tuohai felt much warmer.
I opened the regional channel and found that they were indeed discussing weather issues.
"Damn it, why did it suddenly become so cold?"
"This is a desert. Sand and soil dissipate heat quickly. Isn't it common sense that it's hot during the day and cold at night?"
"But isn't the temperature too low? It's only 15 degrees now, and it feels like it's still dropping. I think it will drop below 10 degrees at night."
"It's below 10 degrees and I came here in shorts. Are you trying to freeze me to death?"
"Does anyone have a lighter? Lend me one. I'll find some wood and light a bonfire."
"Wow, wow, I'm so cold. If anyone has a cotton coat, I'm willing to exchange it with bread."
After watching the noisy regional channel for a while, Zhang Tuohai turned off the channel, tightened his coat, and fell into a deep sleep.
It’s not that he is indifferent, but there are too many people suffering, and even if he wants to take care of them, he can’t.
All he could do was gather more supplies tomorrow and see if he could sell anything.
Nothing happened that night. Zhang Tuohai woke up at dawn the next morning.
Before traveling through time, his family made soy products, and getting up in the early morning to deliver goods was a common occurrence.
As usual, I opened the regional channel and took a look.
The regional channel was very quiet. Most people should still be asleep at this time. There were only six red death notices hanging on the channel.
Three people died of hypothermia, one died of poisoning, and two died in car accidents.
At this time, the number of people in the regional channel has dropped to 2,706.
Zhang Tuohai sighed, took out the remaining bucket of instant noodles, and sprinkled half a bag of seasoning left over from yesterday on it. As for this bucket of seasoning, Zhang Tuohai planned to keep it and use it to cook soup when he found a pot later.
After a night, about 800 ml of water accumulated in the water collector, barely enough for him to drink today.
"I hope I'll have good luck today." Zhang Tuohai took a sip of water, turned the key, and set out on the road to search for supplies.
After the car drove out for twenty kilometers, Zhang Tuohai actually found two boxes at once.
One white and one blue.
[There are 5 baked naan, 5 cans of yellow croaker, and 5 liters of mineral water in the white supply box.]
[In the blue supply box, there is a healthy young black pig weighing 100 pounds. Please treat it with care. If you need to deal with it, please go behind the box to get the first chance.]
Young black pig!
Seeing the prompt, Zhang Tuohai instantly became alert.
He didn't dare to deal with an adult pig for the time being, but he still had the courage to try a young pig weighing more than 100 pounds.
Moreover, he now has two killing weapons, the crossbow and the crowbar, so it is not a problem for him to deal with a young pig weighing only 100 pounds.
At worst, he could just run over and kill the other person with his car.
Zhang Tuohai was eager to try.
To be on the safe side, Zhang Tuohai first pried open the white supply box.
Five steaming hot baked naan instantly appeared in front of Zhang Tuohai.
Zhang Tuohai weighed it and found that the baked naan was quite heavy, weighing one kilogram, which was almost enough for his meal. Moreover, it was sprinkled with sesame seeds, and he could drool just by smelling it.
It would be even better if there was a bowl of mutton soup.
Zhang Tuohai carefully put away the baked naan. These would be his staple food for the next two days.
The five cans of yellow croaker made Zhang Tuohai even more delighted.
These canned foods can provide him with a large amount of fat and salt, which plays an important role in maintaining physical strength.
Zhang Tuohai carefully hid the five canned fish under the seat.
After finishing everything, Zhang Tuohai followed the system's prompts and came to the back of the blue supply box, holding a crossbow in one hand and a crowbar in the other, looking ready for battle.
Inserting the crowbar into the gap of the supply box, Zhang Tuohai took a deep breath and pushed down hard. With a bang, the supply box disappeared, and a small black pig weighing more than 100 pounds appeared on the road.
The little black pig looked at the empty road with a blank face, as if he had not yet realized what was happening.
Seeing this, Zhang Tuohai did not dare to delay and immediately aimed his crossbow at the back of the little black pig's neck.
Just as Zhang Tuohai was about to pull the trigger, the electronic rang again.
[The crossbow's shooting direction moves one inch to the left.]
Zhang Tuohai was startled by the sudden warning sound. He subconsciously moved the crossbow to the left and pulled the trigger.
The crossbow arrow shot towards the little black pig's ear.
"Pity!"
Seeing that the crossbow arrow missed the target, Zhang Tuohai threw away the crossbow, grabbed the crowbar with both hands, and prepared to rush forward and give the opponent a hard blow.
But, coincidentally , the little black pig seemed to hear the sound behind him, and subconsciously turned half of his body and looked back.
It didn't matter that he turned, the crossbow arrow instantly shot into the little black pig's eye socket.
puff!
The crossbow arrow pierced the little black pig's eyes and went straight into its brain, stopping its castration.
The little black pig fell to the ground, thrashed around a few times, and died.
