Scavenging Notes: I am the Lucky Star of the End Times

Inside the guard station, in the office of the captain of the Dawn Guard, Wu Feng looked at the blood sample test reports accumulated over the past few days on the optical computer and frowned: Everyone's data is here, except... Scar...

Scar was walking along the outskirts of the shantytown, street by street. Every time he passed a house, the detector in his hand would display the number of life forms in the house, their gender, and estimated age...

Star calendar year 336, hot season day 92, 05:30:00,

Xu Sansan had a dreamless night, and it was another day of getting up early to work!

After a group of people finished the process of getting up - washing, going to the toilet - eating, she wrapped herself in a small towel, put on her newly acquired Tongluo brand breastplate, pulled the cart, and went out.

Today's destination is Wasteland No. 25.

After a beep sounded in front of the spacecraft door, Xu Sansan showed off her economical cart...

He boarded the spaceship smoothly and found a corner to sit down.

What she didn't notice was that when she left the cabin, she was followed by Niu Juanhua and two other people from next door.

After Niu Juanhua and the other two suffered another setback last night, they felt even more resentful!

Since they can't enter the cabin for the time being, they decided to make Xu Sansan pay the price in the wilderness!

20 minutes later, a familiar broadcast voice sounded:

The spacecraft has arrived at Wasteland No. 25, and the protective shield has begun to be deployed in preparation for landing.

……

The hatch is about to open, please be careful and do not leave the protective cover.

After getting off the spaceship, what comes into view is the rolling mountains in the distance.

The dense trees are lush and green, and the flowers on the mountain are blooming in the wind, full of vitality in the morning sunshine...

However, there seemed to be some bulges among the flowers all over the mountain, like brown lumps of soil of varying sizes, mixed in the flower field, which looked a bit out of place.

Oh, never mind!

Xu Sansan withdrew his gaze from the distance, looked at the tall trees nearby, pulled the cart, and headed into the woods with high morale.

Come on, my lucky lady!

It’s time to start learning metaphysics again!

The special mission of the base today is pine nuts.

When Xu Sansan heard this, he felt that it would be quite difficult and he would most likely need to compete with the mutant squirrels for food.

Hey!

Forget it, she should just not join in the fun and live happily alone.

So while singing praises to the goddess, they started testing indiscriminately along the way.

"Ding! Severe pollution!"

"Ding! Severe pollution!"

"Ding! Severe pollution!"

……

Very good. Two hours later, Xu Sansan, who had gained nothing, leaned against a big tree. He took out a plastic water bottle helplessly, drank a sip of boiled water, wiped the sweat off his face, wrapped himself in a small towel, and began to mutter in his heart:

Singing is useless today?

So what should we do?

Is it...

Is it just a direct gift?

Fine!

“Ah~~~~~! Praise the goddess!”

Xu Sansan was still silently praising the goddess of luck today;

In the valley not far away, Niu Juanhua and the other two were whispering in sweat:

"Didn't you say that she would definitely find something good? How come it's been two hours and there's not even a trace of food?!"

Niu Juanhua's husband was anxious. The three of them had been following the person next door since they got off the spaceship. They had been following her around and checking her over and over again for two hours, but in the end they got nothing!

But time is money!

Every time I open my eyes, I have to open my mouth to eat. How can I keep wasting time like this? !

Niu Juanhua pouted and was also unhappy:

"Didn't you see that her house was expanded last night? She must have found something and made a fortune! Otherwise, where would she get the contribution points to expand the house?"

Hu Zi also agreed. Although he didn't pay attention to whether the house was expanded last night, he only knew that the house next door was too weird and haunted. But looking at her mother's serious expression with gritted teeth, he knew exactly what to do at this moment -

Just keep nodding!

"No, we can't waste time like this. We have to act separately."

Niu Juanhua made the decision with the remaining rationality of a man.

So the three of them divided the work. Niu Juanhua was responsible for continuing to follow Xu Sansan, while the other two began to look for food at their own pace...

A few minutes later, Xu Sansan had rested enough and finally got up and continued on his journey.

Perhaps the "direct giving" strategy worked, for in the next hour, she found quite a few moderately contaminated dead branches along the way.

She was seen wielding a hoe and cutting down a tree trunk that had passed the inspection in just a few strokes. Then she skillfully took out a hemp rope and fixed it on the cart.

Niu Juanhua, who was not far away, narrowed her eyes. She was right. The man was so skilled in bundling supplies that he must have found a lot of good things. She was just about to go forward and have a look to see if she could pick up anything, but suddenly she looked at the hoe in Xu Sansan's hand with lingering fear.

Damn, I didn’t expect this little girl to be so skillful with the hoe!

Niu Juanhua was a little worried that the other party would find out that she was following her and would attack her, so she suppressed her jealousy and anger, and waited until Xu Sansan left before she hurried forward and started to take advantage of the situation.

Damn, looks like I need to find some powerful guys to deal with this girl!

Niu Juanhua was rummaging through the dead branches in her hand while secretly feeling jealous in her heart.

About another hour later, Xu Sansan continued to walk deeper into the forest. The small cart he was pulling behind him was already loaded with several thick bundles of usable firewood.

She walked forward happily, and soon, after passing through the woods, she saw the endless sea of ​​flowers!

Wow!

Quite beautiful!

The colorful wild flowers bloom towards the sun, vying for beauty with their colors!

Each wild flower is as big as a washbasin, and the branches have also undergone mutations, some are half a person's height, and some are two meters high. Xu Sansan pulls the cart slowly through this beautiful and magical sea of ​​flowers.

"Pfft!"

I accidentally stepped on something.

She looked down and saw that her right foot was stuck in a large pile of unknown brown-black mud.

I go!

Xu Sansan hated himself for being so focused on appreciating the flowers that he didn't look at his feet while walking.

So he squatted down, picked up a leaf at random, and quickly wiped the mud off his shoes.

A stream of air, created by the rapid downward movement of the body, rushed straight towards her, mixed with an indescribable... stench...

Xu Sansan looked at the wild flower waving in the wind in the mud in front of him.

Nima!

What a beautiful flower, stuck in cow dung!

She was sure that the strong smell of shit must be the feces of some exotic animal. As for whether it was cow dung, she didn't think it was that important.

When I thought of this, I immediately became alert again!

The presence of feces means that a strange animal has been here!

Oh shit!

This is still a dangerous area!

But suddenly I looked at the dung pile under my feet. The surface of the dung pile was dry and cracked, and the smell was not obvious unless you got close to it. This meant that it had been drying here for a long time...

huh~~~

so far so good,

This means that the strange beast has been gone for a long time.

Alert lifted.

At this moment, Xu Sansan had an idea again. He quickly took out a match from his cloth bag, struck it with a "click", and lit it towards the pile of dung at his feet.

“Zizzizi~~~”

The dung pile was quickly set on fire, and the smoke was filled with a faint smell of grass...

Hmm~~

Not bad!

Magical dung pile!

It doesn’t smell bad when burned, it’s really a rare fuel!

Just do it!

Xu Sansan began to walk along the edge of the sea of ​​flowers, going deeper and deeper, determined not to miss any dung piles...

Niu Juanhua, who was panting and finally catching up, looked up and saw the little girl with an excited look on her face. She didn't know what good things she had found, and she was running around among the mud piles with high morale.

"What did you find out?!"

Niu Juanhua was obviously a little excited. She hurried forward to see it clearly.

Suddenly, there was a "pop!" sound.

"Who?!"

When Xu Sansan heard the sound, he immediately became alert, took out his dagger, and looked towards the place where the sound came from.

Could it be... that a strange beast is coming?
