The entire school embarks on a survival journey, starting from a primeval rainforest.

Tang Qingyu paused in wiping the longbow, then looked up at Jiang Fan: "A purple beam?"

Her tone was indifferent; she simply placed the longbow across her lap and slowly wiped away non-existent dust from the bow's limbs with a cloth.

"No interest," she said. "The nearest dark purple beam of light is at least three or four hundred meters away. In between is unexplored rainforest; who knows what's hidden there? I came here to save people, not to die."

Jiang Fan nodded, his face showing no surprise.

He didn't really mean to drag Tang Qingyu into an adventure right away when he asked that question.

More than anything, he wanted to test how much this "fierce woman," ranked second in the regional rankings, knew about those mysterious beams of light.

It now seems that although she is very capable, she is not reckless in her actions.

Or rather, she was more aware of the dangers of the rainforest than most people.

"That's true." Jiang Fan turned around and looked at the dark purple pillar of light that was faintly visible in the thick fog in the distance. "In the current situation, it is indeed too dangerous to explore within a few hundred meters of the dormitory."

He recalled the morning.

Despite so many people working together in the vicinity, cutting down trees, building bridges, and exploring, quite a few people still got injured.

Someone was bitten on the calf by a venomous snake that suddenly jumped out of the bushes. The wound quickly became red, swollen, and black. If Tang Qingyu hadn't brought some herbs with her and crushed them to apply, that person probably wouldn't have made it through the night.

Someone was bitten on the neck by an unknown poisonous insect, and the entire area of ​​skin was covered in blisters. It was painful and itchy, and it took a long time for him to recover.

Two girls were chased and stung by a swarm of fist-sized poisonous bees while picking berries. When they escaped, their faces were so swollen that they couldn't even open their eyes.

Rainforests are never a haven of comfort.

This is a place that eats people.

Moreover, Jiang Fan knew that instead of risking exploring those unknown beams of light now, it would be better to find a way to gain more points and improve his own strength.

Today I saved people in three other dormitory buildings, and my gratitude value reached 4721 points, which is a huge gain.

However, on another level, the "competition" in the surrounding area has also intensified.

Resources are limited.

Food, clean water, medicine, safe shelter... everything is scarce.

Unlike the residents of the other three buildings, who received spare keys, many people had to sleep in the corridors at night.

Moreover, their food supply is even more scarce.

In just a day and a half, the supplies brought from the time travel were completely used up.

If we still can't leave the dormitory building in two more days, it's hard to imagine what will happen.

Now, people in all four buildings can move around freely, totaling more than three hundred people.

With so many people gathered in one area, the competition for resources will only become more and more intense.

Human nature is inherently selfish.

When faced with survival, no one dares to place all their hopes on the "kindness" of others.

"Alright, stop sitting around." Jiang Fan clapped his hands and said to the people around him, "Meat is delicious, but it gets greasy if you eat too much. Before it gets dark, let's take a walk around the neighborhood and see if there are any wild vegetables or berries to change things up and earn some points."

"Alright!" Ding Hang was the first to respond, touching his bald head. "Perfect, I've been eating so much meat these past few days that my throat is greasy. I need some vegetables to cleanse my system."

Ji Ran chuckled and said, "Brother Fan is right. Eating meat all the time isn't good. We need to supplement with vitamins, otherwise we'll easily get scurvy."

These words reminded Jiang Fan.

He looked at Nangong Yue: "Sister Yue, find a few people who can identify wild vegetables and take everyone with you. Be careful and don't go too far."

"Okay." Nangong Yue nodded, picked up the tabby cat that was playing with the leopard cub's tail at her feet, and said, "You're coming with me."

The tabby cat meowed and reluctantly jumped into her arms, still holding a tuft of fur from its cub in its mouth.

"I'll grill you some fish tonight!" Nangong Yue said.

The tabby cat was overjoyed.

Tang Qingyu watched Jiang Fan arrange things in an orderly manner, said nothing, and simply continued to polish her bow.

But in her mind, she silently added another comment to her evaluation of Jiang Fan: "a dog capitalist."

Jiang Fan looked at Tang Qingyu again: "Why aren't you leaving? What are you doing here?"

Tang Qingyu was very dissatisfied with Jiang Fan's terrible attitude towards her, and kicked the third leopard cub that no one wanted with her toe: "My roommate really likes these things, so if nobody wants them..."

"Here you go," Jiang Fan waved his hand dismissively.

"Really?" Tang Qingyu's eyes lit up. "That's great! I'll definitely... I'll definitely make sure my roommate takes good care of herself!"

"Look at what you're saying, it's no big deal." Jiang Fan's lips curled up. "Just give me any green card."

"What? A green card?" Tang Qingyu had just squatted down to hug the little leopard cub when she heard this, she suddenly stood up again.

She pointed at Jiang Fan, her pert chest heaving rapidly: "I at least saved your life, so why do the other two get to give it away for free, but I get a green card?"

"That's not how it works," Jiang Fan shook his head. "One of them is a potential ally, and the other is a friend. As for you... cough cough, your roommate, I don't even know her. How could I just give her away like that?"

"I...!" Tang Qingyu was speechless after Jiang Fan's words, but she didn't want to admit that she wanted to raise the child, so she couldn't say anything for a long time.

Jiang Fan added insult to injury: "Actually, if you want it, I'll give it to you. But your roommate... at most, she'll give you a discount out of respect for you, and you can just take a white card."

"snort!"

Tang Qingyu snorted angrily, took out a card from her body and threw it on the ground, then picked up the little thing and turned to leave.

She vowed never to have anything to do with that heartless guy again!

She's definitely a little rich girl!

Jiang Fan sighed inwardly and bent down to pick up the card from the ground.

[White Building Card - Level 1 Meat Drying Room]

[Note: Sun-dried meat will become jerky in three days and has a shelf life of up to 90 days.]

After seeing the card in his hand, Jiang Fan couldn't help but exclaim that he had made a killing.

In the current rainforest environment, preserving meat is a very troublesome problem; it will basically spoil within a day.

That's why he distributed a large amount of yesterday's anaconda meat and today's leopard meat to avoid wasting them.

But this meat drying room solved the immediate problem.

Moreover, this thing clearly corresponds to the homestead system that will be launched tomorrow, and can help me gain an advantage in this area.

Just then, a thin girl with glasses approached Jiang Fan: "Um... I heard you can trade leopard meat here. Can I trade some of these fish with you?"

Jiang Fan glanced at the two red-bellied piranhas the girl was carrying, a hint of doubt flashing in his eyes.

"Why did you switch to mutated beast meat? Is a friend of yours sick?"

"Yes," Li Luojia nodded. "My roommate was bitten by an ant the size of a finger yesterday and has had a fever for over a day, talking nonsense the whole time. I heard that the leopard meat here can relieve the symptoms... If that doesn't work, I also have a box of mosquito coils... and toothpaste, just opened, only used once... could I have some of that instead...?"

The girl's voice grew softer and softer, clearly indicating that she was socially anxious and afraid of being rejected by Jiang Fan.

But Jiang Fan's anger grew stronger and stronger.

The fact that the other party knows the uses of leopard meat means that they have been in contact with Li Chuxue, but they are now exchanging meat for their roommate.

So... she pocketed the leopard meat that Li Chuxue was supposed to distribute to the sick and wounded?
