Train Survival: You're really trying to survive!

Chapter 4 is a bit outrageous.

Su Li wasn't going to be foolish enough to carry the supplies around. His arms were aching, but his legs weren't, so he made two extra trips and used his spatial backpack to bring all the supplies onto the train.

The train's interior was completely empty; the floor and walls were made of thin sheet metal, and Su Li felt the walls could be torn apart by hand. After placing the supplies inside, it resembled a storage room.

Zuli glanced at the sun, which had already risen and the temperature was steadily increasing.

"We won't work outside during the hottest part of the day; we'll find something to do indoors."

Su Li took out the materials and began making something.

Wooden Barrel: Wood * 3

Processing time: 5 minutes

10-liter capacity

[Stone Hammer]

Grade: None

Materials required: 2 tree branches, 2 stones

Processing time: 10 minutes

Su Li first made three wooden barrels, then made a stone hammer. His arm was sore and he needed to rest for a while.

While the loading bar was being created, Su Li opened the chat interface.

—Brothers, I've arrived at a scorching salt lake. Is it the same for you?

—Me too. Holy crap, this place is really desolate.

—A saline lake. I have a bad feeling. Is the water here all undrinkable saline water?

—Huh? You can't drink saline water?

—No way! I went to the lakeside to get it tested, and the system said drinking it would cause kidney failure.

Oh no, it's so hot, we're definitely going to use a lot of water.

—My female best friends all say I have iron kidneys, can I withstand kidney failure?

—You can give it a try, after all, you're a minotaur, different from us.

Lin Feng – I've put some water and food up for sale in the trading market. Anyone with resources can come and exchange them.

This news cheered Su Li up. He opened the trading interface and saw a long list of traded goods.

"Beautiful girl NK, black stockings, um~ that's right, this is what a survival novel should be like." Su Li nodded in satisfaction, wishing she could stamp the manual with a mark of purebred authenticity.

"It's just missing a protagonist, damn it! Why don't I have a 100x critical hit system or a daily check-in system?! I'm a transmigrator too, where are my transmigrator benefits?! This damn author wouldn't have embezzled all my benefits, would he?"

Su Li muttered to herself as she searched for Lin Feng's name and saw the supplies Lin Feng had put up for sale.

Upon closer inspection, Zuli immediately broke out in a sweat.

[10ml Drinking Water - 10 Wood Items] *500

【Bread 5g - Stone Material *5】*500

[Canned Cola *1 - Fire Element Fragment]

[500g Tuna - Earth Element Fragment]

Lin Feng put up more than 500 bottles of drinking water and more than 500 pieces of bread. By that calculation, Lin Feng took out 5 liters of water, which is 10 bottles of drinking water, to trade.

Where did he get so much water? Did he open the initial crate?

Furthermore, exchanging 10ml of water for 10 pieces of wood seems a bit...

Finally, where did he get the tuna and canned cola? How can you find things like that in a box?

Su Li was completely baffled. He searched online, but the entire trading interface didn't have a single listing for trading fish.

"Are there fish in this lake? If so, they're unlikely to be sea fish. They're probably fish that were found in boxes."

Meanwhile, the chat room also became lively.

—Thanks, Lin Feng, I finally have a sip of water to drink.

—Your mouth is really small; 10ml would be gone in the blink of an eye.

—Lin Feng, how can you be so selfish? You have so much water, what's wrong with sharing some with everyone?

—Exactly, this is a time of crisis, why are you being so individualistic? Hurry up and share your water with us.

—You have absolutely no respect for elders. Look at this picture of Grandma. See that? That's a Heavenly Manifestation, a symbol of orthodox nobility! What's wrong with asking you for a little water?

Su Li was really into it. It was so classic! Wow, watching a survival story live was so interesting!

—Everyone who has timber, hurry up and trade with Boss Lin Feng! Those 300 lots are about to be traded out.

Lin Feng: It's alright, I have plenty of water. I can put more on the shelves after everyone has used it up.

Seeing this, Su Li couldn't hold back anymore. Was Lin Feng a little too powerful? How did he have so much water at the very beginning? He had already listed 5 liters of water in the trading window, and he still had more in hand?

Furthermore, given how murky the market is, it's understandable that some people might make trades without thinking, but is it really almost over? Are all of them out of their minds?

"I don't understand! I really don't understand!" Su Li gave the same look as the old man on the subway looking at his phone. "Don't these people know how much 10ml actually is?"

10ml, that's about the size of a bottle cap. That little bit of water is barely enough to moisten your throat.

But how much is 10 pieces of wood?

Cutting down one tree yields only two pieces of timber. Why go through all that trouble, cutting down five trees under the scorching 30-degree sun, just to get a bottle cap of water?

Anyone willing to switch must be out of their mind!

Or is it that I'm the only one having trouble getting wood? Everyone else just picks it up randomly?

Su Li couldn't help but speak up inside.

Zuli—Hey everyone, I have a question. Do you all just pick up wood randomly? I used a stone axe to break a tree as thick as my arm under the sun, and I only got two pieces.

—Where can you just pick up wood? I didn't pay attention to the crafting materials and thought I needed wood. I had to knock down the first tree with a stone, and it took me more than half an hour!

—I'm exhausted, but thankfully I have tree branches so I can build a stone axe. Breaking off a tree branch is relatively easy.

—I cut down 14 trees, and each tree yielded 2 pieces of wood and 1 branch. Without exception.

Everyone started discussing it, and it was clear that most of the people had gone to great lengths to obtain the timber.

Zurich didn't understand.

Zurich—So, everyone's still exchanging 10 units of wood for 10 ml of water? Don't you think that's a bad deal?

Zuli was completely baffled. In this heat, he must have sweated 10ml just from cutting down trees.

I expended energy, sweated 10ml, and my muscles ached. I chopped down some wood to exchange for 10ml of water.

Isn't this a complete loss? If I just drank that 10ml of sweat, wouldn't that be equivalent to me cutting down twice the number of trees? I'd win big!

Does this mean that everyone in this world is brain-dead?

But my college entrance exam score was barely enough for a first-tier university. I took the exam with idiots, and my score was only slightly above average.

So, am I an idiot too?!

Su Li fell into self-doubt.

—Where did this trash come from, daring to doubt Boss Lin Feng?

There are plenty of people who can cut down trees, but only Boss Lin Feng can provide water.

—I think the comment upstairs makes some sense, but then again, it doesn't seem entirely reasonable. My mind is a bit confused.

Me too.

—I think he's right, this is way too shady!

—Yeah, damn it, we boycott Lin Feng!

Yes, boycott Lin Feng!

The chat room suddenly erupted into chaos. Some people cursed Su Li, some cursed Lin Feng, some wavered between the two, and many others shouted to boycott Lin Feng.

Inside a train, Lin Feng closed the handbook. "Zu Li? Sowing discord? Just a clown."

"Still want to boycott me? It's only 9 a.m., and the temperature is already 35 degrees Celsius. Once the sun is fully up, you'll be in for a world of hurt. At that point, they'll face the choice between boycotting me and living!"

After speaking, he looked at his supplies. Numerous storage boxes nearly filled the room. Outside the storage boxes, over 90 bottles of drinking water were piled together.

Lin Feng leisurely sprinkled black pepper on the tuna meat grilled on the stone slab, and then savored the delicious fish.

He was a hoodlum who would have been at the very bottom of society, but here he could eat the finest tuna.

"This survival game is my chance to turn things around!"

Just as Lin Feng was feeling smug, a system notification suddenly appeared in front of him. He knew that it was a message from his friend.

He opened the manual and saw a picture of a very pure and beautiful girl with a large, bear-like face. Below it was a message she had sent him.

"Brother Lin Feng, I obtained a blueprint [Blueprint - Basic Water Condenser]. I wonder if I could trade it with you for some water and bread?"

Lin Feng's spirits lifted!
