I build a shelter in the eternal night.

Is Chapter 36 so straightforward and simplistic?
After waking up, Chen Fan quickly washed up before standing at the door of the wooden house and looking out at the continuous drizzle.

The rain wasn't too heavy today.

In his mind, the rainy season was just about having a lot of rainfall, but in this world, the rainy season is really raining non-stop 24 hours a day. At most, it's sometimes a light drizzle, and sometimes it's a downpour.

"."

He looked out at the cracked earth.

After several days of rain, let alone flooding, the ground remained cracked. The narrow cracks, like those on the soles of a farmer's feet, were like bottomless monsters, swallowing up all the rainwater.

There wasn't even any excess water.

in his memory.

The weather in this world is generally normal except for the rainy season. However, the continuous rainfall during the rainy season in the wilderness is clearly not normal weather. In particular, when the rainy season arrives early, the monsters often become unusually irritable.

Didn't think much about it.

He looked at the remaining two rare treasures in his hand. These were left to him by the group of flesh-worm monsters the day before yesterday. There were three in total. The other rare treasure was the building module blueprint "Copper Pipe".

What I'm holding is a small pocket knife.

Like a keychain.
-
"Name of the rare item": Greatsword.

"Rare Treasure Grade": White.

"Exotic Treasure Effect": Deals considerable damage to low-level monsters.
-
"."

Chen Fan looked at the strange treasure in his hand and frowned slightly. This was not the first time he had obtained a weapon-type strange treasure. For example, the spear that the lame monkey had been holding was a weapon-type strange treasure.

However, the lame monkey's treasure has an extremely imposing name: "God-Slaying Spear".

How did this extraordinary treasure come about?
A large knife.

So straightforward and rudimentary?
Moreover, it doesn't have any special effects. The God-Slaying Spear, that rare treasure, also has the characteristic of being able to change its size at will.

Forget it.

He set the treasure aside, intending to hand it over to Zhou Mo when he returned. After all, it was a weapon-type treasure, and the damage it inflicted on monsters was stronger than that of ordinary weapons.

As for the other rare treasure...

That is rather special.

A cluster of small black dots was wrapped in a thin membrane; it was a rare seed-like treasure.
-
"Name of the rare item": Flesh Monster Mother and Child Species.

"Rare Treasure Grade": Green.

"Exotic Treasure Effect": It needs to be planted in 'Level 2 Farmland'. The ripening cycle is seven days. After ripening, it is divided into mother and child fruits. Each person can swallow one fruit and communicate with each other by thought within a hundred miles. The effect lasts for one month.

"Planting conditions": Water it with the blood of the monster every hour, and use the monster's corpse as fertilizer.
-
"nice one."

Chen Fan silently stuffed the seed into his pocket. This extraordinary treasure solved one of his current major problems, namely the lack of means of communication. For example, he had no way to contact Zhou Mo, who was on field missions.

The planting conditions are a bit troublesome.

It is necessary to assign someone to guard it regularly.

But it's okay.

He has two skilled farmers, so he doesn't have to worry about this problem. The two of them keep watch over him and handle it perfectly.

This was the first green-grade rare treasure he had obtained.

The results were better than he had imagined.

Even in Jiangbei Market, a mature fleshy fruit like the fleshy worm mother fruit would be a highly sought-after commodity.

Walk out of the cabin.

The change on the city wall was immediately noticeable. A simple hut made of wooden planks had been added to the wall, with a few discarded clothes hanging on the roof. It was small, but it could provide some shelter from the rain.

He had the two generals, Heng and Ha, set this up before he went to sleep.

It looks pretty good.

Otherwise, if everyone had to stay up all night in the rain, no one could withstand that; no one's body is made of iron.

"Stationmaster."

Chen Fan walked out of the city wall and came to the outer edge of the camp. Qi Chong, who was busy in the farmland, hurriedly ran over and said: "You've picked them all."

"Ten seedlings of Hericium erinaceus will grow into 10 Hericium erinaceus mushrooms."

"Eight plants grown from the Mysterious Stone vein have produced 80 Mysterious Stones." "They've all been stored in the warehouse."

"Ah."

Chen Fan nodded slightly, walked towards the warehouse outside the camp, pushed open the door and went in. There was a row of monkey head mushrooms and a layer of strange stones neatly arranged on the shelf. The production was not too much. He picked up a monkey head mushroom and smelled it lightly.

took a bite.

The earthy, sweet taste assaulted my mouth.

"Eh?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Chen Fan's eyes. He finished the monkey head mushroom in no time. The taste was surprisingly good. Most importantly, it was warm in his mouth, like a hot current, and it didn't taste like eating raw food at all.

And after swallowing.

He could vaguely sense that his physical abilities had indeed improved slightly.

That's really good.

There are 9 left.

There were exactly 10 people in the camp.

"Take the remaining nine and let everyone take one. The rain will continue for a while, and improving physical fitness will reduce the chances of getting sick."

The slight increase in physical fitness is unlikely to have much impact on combat power, but it can reduce the probability of getting sick.

Chen Fan glanced at the 80 strange stones on the shelf, then handed the "Meat Strange Mother Seed" to Qi Chong from his pocket: "I will upgrade the farmland to level 2 later. For the rest of the time, you and A-Le will take turns looking after these seeds."

"It's rather delicate."

"It needs to be watered with the blood of the monster every hour."

"The lame monkey buried a lot of strange creature corpses in the ground. You can dig some out later."

"understand!"

Qi Chong responded enthusiastically, then carefully took the thin membrane with both hands and held it in his palms.

"."

Chen Fan gave Qi Chong a slightly strange look. Why did his sense of identification with farming suddenly become so strong?

Yesterday, he could clearly sense that Qi Chong wanted to do fieldwork like Zhou Mo and was somewhat resistant to farming. He was even thinking of having a chat with Qi Chong in the future to reduce the other party's aversion to farming. How come this aversion suddenly disappeared today?

It's hard to figure this out on your own in a short time.

Has someone spoken to Qi Chong?

He glanced at Ah Le, the rough-looking man with a full beard following Qi Chong, nodded thoughtfully, and then patted Qi Chong on the shoulder with a smile.

"Good job."

“In the future, we will have more farmland, and at that time you will miss the ease you have now.”

"hey-hey."

Qi Chong grinned and said, "Don't worry, Station Chief, I will take good care of this land!"

"Go."

Despite the rain, Chen Fan walked to the edge of the farmland and used 10 Mysterious Stones to upgrade the farmland outside the camp to level two.

A panel appears in front of you.
-
"Farmland upgraded to level 2."

"There is no direction for upgrading this building."
-
"It seems that not all buildings have upgrade options available."

Chen Fan didn't say much, but looked at the farmland in front of him. After the upgrade, the soil had changed from yellow soil to black soil, and it looked much more fertile.

The farmland is small.

But he didn't have many seeds; planting only a dozen or so was enough for this farmland.

After doing all this, he walked to an open space on the outskirts of the camp.

With the "1.0 heating system" in place, he slept more comfortably during the day, as the house was much warmer.

but.
After all, the hot water in the copper pipes wouldn't flow automatically. He was woken up twice by the cold and got up to change the hot water in the copper pipes twice.

It's rather troublesome.
