The "Survival on the Train" game has bugs, it's really laggy!

Chapter 14 The Unopenable Treasure Chest, the Guardian Spirit

On the trading platform, players can upload items and set a fixed price. If a buyer thinks the fixed price is not worth it but still wants to buy the item, they can negotiate the price by leaving a message or sending a private message.

In the early stages of the game, not only is the train level too low.

Most people do not have the ability to identify items, nor do they have the relevant tools. Therefore, the most expensive items are usually those that are known to have no safety hazards, such as bottled water, bread, and instant noodles.

For some unknown items that are currently unusable or have not demonstrated any special use, the definition of their value becomes somewhat ambiguous.

Su Yuan was so eager because he wanted to see if he could also see the hidden information of the items on the trading platform!

The trading platform is similar to Xianyu (a second-hand software trading platform), but with a simpler interface and no "GG" splash screen.

The items inside were dazzling and overwhelming.

The final result did not disappoint him. In Su Yuan's eyes, in addition to the pictures of items uploaded by the players and the messages they left, there was indeed a line of small notes.

Item Name: Dark Blue Crystal

[Seller's message: Guys, I found this in a cave. It's glowing and incredibly beautiful! It feels like some kind of energy stone or gemstone? It's definitely a great find! I'm reluctantly selling it to exchange for 100g of food or a bottle of water! First come, first served!]

[Hidden Note: Crystallized excrement from mutated bats has no practical use other than a persistent, foul odor and a slight radioactivity. It can't even be used as fertilizer. Perhaps only witches can truly utilize its value.]

【Item: 5 bright red mushrooms】

[Seller's note: Picked from the woods, the color is perfect, looks very appetizing. I've already tried it for everyone, I licked it, it's a little sweet, no one died. I have plenty on hand now, just need to change the bottle with water. Brothers who are starving can buy some and try it. I don't offer after-sales service!]

[Hidden Note: Hallucinogenic red mushrooms are highly poisonous. Ingestion can lead to severe neurological disorders and organ failure. The seller is still alive because he only licked it once, and the onset of the poison has a 90-minute delay. He is currently in a severe hallucinatory state. It is strongly advised to stay away from him.]

[Item: Black Rock]

[Seller's message: I found this in a cave at the last train station. It's so hard! But I don't really need it. Anyone who needs it can take it. Just give them some food or water.]

[Hidden Note: This is the dried excrement of a high-level mutated beast. It has three times the calorific value of charcoal, but produces highly toxic fumes when burned.]

"..."

Sure enough, most of the things weren't as good as they seemed; they were actually just garbage, and some could even be fatal.

However, Su Yuan laughed. It's just like finding gold in the shit. He has plenty of patience. After all, there are few lucky people. It's impossible for every item without any information to be good.

However, searching like looking for a needle in a haystack is too inefficient.

Su Yuan quickly discovered the search bar and filtering function in the upper right corner of the trading platform.

The filter bar has five main categories: food, weapons, tools, blueprints, and other items.

Without hesitation, he clicked directly into the "Other Items" category.

I'm not hungry right now, and I don't lack any tools. Besides, the fire's speed has been temporarily increased. I'll see what's at the next station later.

Since we have some free time now, let's see if there are any bargains we can find.

After clicking, the interface refreshed instantly.

All sorts of strange and unusual things came out at once.

"Strange stones," "glowing moss," "ice that never melts," "a dry twig"...

Most of the items are actually not very valuable, but this category brings together all the strange and unusual things, making them much easier to find.

Just as Su Yuan was flipping through a dozen pages and his eyes were starting to feel tired, a peculiar item successfully caught his attention.

It was an ordinary-looking wooden box, similar in style to the two treasure chests he found in the ranger's hut, but with some differences.

Because the box doesn't have any glowing patterns, it looks more like an ordinary storage box.

[Item Name: Unopenable Treasure Chest!]

[Seller's message: I'm so angry! I found it in a dilapidated temple. It looked like a treasure chest, but I tried everything – chopping with an axe, smashing it with stones, burning it, flooding it – but I just couldn't open it! There wasn't even a crack! Selling it cheap, I'll trade it for anything. DM me if you're interested. Whoever's good enough can take it and study it; I just can't handle it anymore!]

The comment also included a picture showing a blunted axe lying next to the box, indicating that the seller really tried their best.

If it were any other player, they would probably just scroll past this comment.

Because this item is useless in the early stages, buying it would only waste your precious survival resources.

But Su Yuan saw a different hidden note.

[Hidden Note: This treasure chest is guarded by a mysterious force and inhabited by a treasure-guarding spirit. To open it, you must first 'bribe' it. Only when the spirit is satisfied will it willingly open the door to wealth for you.]

"A money-guarding spirit? A bribe?"

Su Yuan's eyes lit up instantly when he saw this note.

This is interesting!

The name "Money-Keeping Spirit" immediately suggests a person who is extremely greedy.

What is it that can be called "wealth" in this world?

Food? Water?

wrong.

These are just survival supplies, hard currency, but they can't be considered real "wealth".

Su Yuan's hand instinctively reached into his pocket and touched the three cold, heavy coins.

Train coins!

"That's it, it must be this thing!"

Su Yuan instantly knew the answer.

As Xiao Huo mentioned before, Train Coins are the universal currency of this world, and can even be used to exchange for train components and blueprints.

If there's anything that represents "wealth" and can tempt a guy called "the money-keeper," it must be train coins!

In short, judging from the seller's attitude, they seem eager to sell and want to buy it themselves first!

Once you have the specific information, starting it shouldn't be too difficult!
