When Zhang Bei woke up, the dazzling light made him feel slightly dizzy.
Rubbing his eyes, he boiled a pot of water. Zhang Bei planned to have some instant noodles and ham sausage as breakfast.
While waiting for the water to boil, Zhang Bei opened the World Channel.
“Did you guys hear anything last night?”
“No, there was only the sound of my stomach rumbling.”
“I heard a rustle, like something was passing.”
“Logically speaking, there shouldn’t be any creatures in space, right? Is it wind?”
“There’s wind in your space? Are you stupid?”
“I’m probably hallucinating from hunger. I’ve only eaten half a loaf of bread since yesterday.”
“No way, no way. There are still people who haven’t eaten hot meals?”
“What the f*ck? Hot meat? Boss, please provide for me. I can do anything!!!”
“Boss, I’m fair-skinned, beautiful, and long-legged!”
“Boss!!!”
Zhang Bei heard the water boil and turned off the World Channel.
Zhang Beibei sighed while slurping the instant noodles, “If it weren’t for the detector, I would probably be starving by now.”
Just as Zhang Bei finished taking the last bite, the detector began to vibrate.
“Green?!!” Zhang Bei was shocked.
Zhang Bei quickly sank his thoughts into the detector.
It was still that familiar cold voice.
[600 kilometers southwest, there is a box of flints.]
Zhang Bei was extremely excited. With the flints, it meant that he had an inexhaustible fire source! This was much more precious than anything else!
Zhang Bei quickly set off and controlled the asteroid to rush to the location indicated by the detector.
After about an hour, Zhang Bei looked at the green light ball in front of him and charged over in one go.
The box burst through the membrane and smashed onto the ground with a bang.
“From the sound, there must be quite a lot,” Zhang Bei said as he opened the box.
There were pieces of flint neatly arranged inside, and there were a few things that looked like paper tubes at the top.
“This is?? Flame sticks1??” Zhang Bei opened the tube in surprise and blew on it lightly. Instantly, flames jumped out.
Zhang Bei put away the flame stick and dug a hole in the ground, burying the flints in the soil.
“I can’t leave this thing outside. A man’s wealth is his ruin. After all, I don’t have a weapon now. If I meet someone one day…”
Zhang Bei was right. Never test human nature. Especially in this environment, people could only live for themselves.
Zhang Bei was still worried, so he divided the flints into ten portions and buried them in various places on the asteroid, and marked them.
After doing all this, he felt hungry. He took out some bread and ham sausage, thinking of having a bite.
Just as he stuffed the bread into his mouth, Zhang Bei felt a tremor.
“White and green… what combination is this?” Zhang Bei was puzzled.
Zhang Bei sent his thoughts into the detector.
[780 kilometers north, one box of frozen food, one box of kitchenwares]
“What the f*ck? Kitchenwares? Does that mean there’s a knife?” Zhang Bei couldn’t even close his mouth.
Controlling the asteroid, Zhang Bei flew over according to the guidance of the detector.
About an hour and a half later, Zhang Bei looked at a white-green light ball from afar and rushed over.
There was another familiar ‘pop’. Seeing the box land flat on the ground, Zhang Bei quickly opened the box.
Zhang Bei opened the box of frozen food first: two chickens, a duck, two packets of chicken wings, some french fries, onion rings, and chicken popcorns.
“It’s called food, but it’s all frozen. How can I eat it…” Zhang Bei smiled bitterly.” There’s no fridge either. It’ll spoil after a few days. ”
Zhang Bei thought for a long time and could only slightly cover the frozen food with a paper box to prevent it from spoiling too quickly.
Then, he opened the kitchenware set.
“Wok? What is this? Oh, a shovel…” Zhang Bei looked at the items one by one and finally found what he wanted the most.
“Knife set, hehehe!” Zhang Bei laughed crazily. The knife set included: A cleaver, which was abnormally heavy; a vegetable knife that was lighter; a small and exquisite fruit knife; and a whetstone. Zhang Bei immediately kept the fruit knife in his pocket.
He buried these things in the soil as well. He looked at the frozen food and had an idea.
Zhang Bei opened the Exchange Platform and searched carefully in the list of trades.
“Found it!” Zhang Bei was extremely excited when he saw the small refrigerator. He quickly sent a message to the seller.
“Hello, brother?” Zhang Bei sent a greeting.
The other party replied instantly, “Yes, yes! Brother, do you want to buy this fridge?”
Zhang Bei: “How do you want to exchange?”
The other party: “Brother, if you want this fridge, it means that you definitely don’t lack food now. How about this? You can trade for it with five days worth of food.”
Zhang Bei: “Five days is impossible. No one has much supplies at this time. No one will want your lousy thing, and there’s no electricity in space. Am I right?”
The other party clearly hesitated. “Then what do you want this for? How much are you willing to pay? I only want food.”
Zhang Bei thought for a while. “Two days worth of food.”
The other party: “Three days at least.”
Zhang Bei: “No deal, bye.”
The other party: “Hey, hey, hey, why are you so rash!! Two days it is then!”
After confirming the transaction, two days worth of food on Zhang Bei’s side was reduced to light particles, and the refrigerator appeared in front of him.
Zhang Bei moved the refrigerator to the energy device and placed the plug on it.
Buzz! The fridge started to work. Zhang Bei quickly put the frozen food in the fridge and even stuck a few bottles of water in the gaps.
“Hah…” Zhang Bei wiped his sweat. While he sat on the ground and looked at the sun, he started to feel the urge to take a sh*t.
“F*ck… do I have to do it in the open?” Zhang Bei looked troubled.
As the feeling became more and more intense, Zhang Bei could only tear off a piece of paper from a box and rush towards the back of the asteroid.
After a while, Zhang Bei roared, “I want a bathroom! I want a toilet! I want toilet paper!”
After settling his business, Zhang Bei started browsing the Exchange Platform in boredom, realizing that most people still wanted to trade for food.
“As expected, without the detector, food is the most difficult to find in this boundless space.” Zhang Bei thought to himself.
“How about I move around? Maybe the detector can’t detect things too far away yet?” Zhang Bei began to control the asteroid to wander aimlessly.
Halfway through, Zhang Bei stopped and picked up the kettle to boil some hot water to make instant noodles. He ate a sumptuous meal with the ham sausage and bread.
After about two hours, when Zhang Bei was about to give up, the detector lit up with a green light.
“Pure green? What is it this time?” Zhang Bei’s eyes lit up.
