night.

Li Qingshan lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Suddenly, he heard a cracking sound. Li Qingshan immediately opened his eyes and looked up.

He was immediately startled.

A magnificent tiger slowly emerged from the tall grass in the distance.

Li Qingshan's heart jumped into his throat. He knew that this worm was not something that could be dealt with by a simple sliding tackle.

This is not an easily knocked-down skeleton, nor is it a wild dog that can be outmaneuvered.

If this beast discovers me, I'll probably be nothing but a pile of bones in no time.

He remained motionless inside the dilapidated house, his eyes fixed on the slowly approaching tiger.

The tiger walked very slowly, its movements as if it were asleep, without any energy or spirit.

It was heading towards a clump of thorns, with half a piece of black flesh hanging from the thicket.

Li Qingshan instantly realized that the tiger had been lured here by the black meat.

When I was fishing during the day, I only cut off half of the black meat and left the other half to lure monsters.

Unfortunately, instead of attracting the small beast, they attracted a large insect.

I mustn't let it discover me.

The giant insect seemed to sense the danger and stopped at the edge of the pit, its eyes fixed on the black flesh in front of it.

Then, unable to resist the temptation, it took a step forward, and with a splash, half of its body fell into the pit.

Li Qingshan's eyes lit up; could it be that he could catch a big worm?

This might take many days to eat.

Immediately afterward, the worm leaped out of the pit, broke through the thorns, bit the black flesh hanging on it, turned and left, disappearing into the weeds in no time.

Li Qingshan did not act rashly. After a while, he quietly peeked out to confirm that the tiger had left.

Although I was a little disappointed that I didn't catch the big insect, I was lucky to have survived.

The next morning, Li Qingshan came out of the wooden house, carrying a yin-yang hoe in his hand.

He first went around weeding to accumulate the essence of plants for the Yin-Yang hoe.

Then, he picked up a heavy hoe and began weeding the bean and radish fields.

When hungry, he would eat a big fish.

And so it went, day after day.

On this day, when Li Qingshan stepped out of the dilapidated house, the first thing he smelled was the fresh fragrance of ripe soybeans.

The soybeans are golden yellow, and the pods are plump and full.

The radishes have also sprouted above the ground, with white radishes growing beneath the emerald green leaves.

The soybeans and radishes are ripe.

Li Qingshan counted on his fingers; in just ten days, the seeds had transformed into actual food.

This is because the herbal essences I provided were not sufficient.

If you can increase the dosage of the pesticide, the growth cycle of the crop will only be shorter.

In any case, the first batch of grain has ripened, and all we have to do is harvest it as soon as possible.

Li Qingshan brandished his machete and went into the bean field, laying down bundles of bean vines before collecting them and slowly threshing them to extract the beans.

After three busy days, Li Qingshan finally finished the harvest. The soybeans, weighing about three or four hundred pounds, were piled up in the dilapidated house.

For the time being, I won't have to worry about not having food anymore.

As for radishes, you can bury them in the ground first and then pick them when you want to eat them.

Li Qingshan currently lacks useful containers, and plans to exchange some earthenware jars for new ones when he goes to the garrison next time.

It can be used to store water and grain.

Otherwise, piling soybeans directly in the soil like this will easily cause them to become damp and moldy, and will also attract snakes, insects, rodents, and ants.

However, this is the only option for now.

After the soybeans were harvested, a large open space was left.

Instead of planting a new crop, Li Qingshan began to implement his trap plan.

He arrived at the dead field, where a locust tree branch was stuck in the ground—this was the spot Li Qingshan had marked.

The monsters spawned from this location the previous three times.

Li Qingshan was 70% confident that he would refresh the page here again next time.

His initial plan was to dig a large pit around the spawn point, bury sharp wooden stubble in it, and turn the spawn point into an isolated island.

This way, if any monster crawls out, it will immediately fall into the pit and be impaled by the splinters of wood.

If you don't get killed by the stab, stand on the pit and use stones to finish off the damage.

After making the plan, Li Qingshan began to take action, wielding a hoe and digging holes around the spawn point.

The reason I didn't touch the refresh point was because I was worried that my random actions would disrupt the refresh mechanism of the game.

He dug the hole with great effort, raising clouds of dust. The soil, about a foot deep, was getting increasingly red.

Digging deeper, the ground became quite muddy, with some red water seeping from the soil.

Li Qingshan dared not dig any further; who knew what strange things he might unearth if he dug any deeper?

Plan A has been temporarily shelved.

Suddenly, his vision blurred, and the countdown, which had been paused for several days, started ticking again.

Level 1 inhospitable field.

Time until next refresh: 7 hours 59 minutes

hiss!

Li Qingshan was startled; he only needed eight hours.

You must prepare as early as possible.

After thinking it over, Li Qingshan decided to use the method he had used before – the burning method.

Pile up dry firewood around the spawn point and burn the monsters to death with flames when they spawn.

He immediately began collecting firewood, first gathering some dead branches around the big locust tree, and then cutting some shrubs from the surrounding wasteland, piling them all around the respawn point.

Time until next refresh: 1 hours 59 minutes

At this moment, Li Qingshan lit the firewood. Because it was summer, the firewood was all dry, and the flames immediately shot up. The firewood crackled and popped as it burned, and the air was filled with a special aroma of burning firewood.

Li Qingshan felt both nervous and apprehensive, unsure of what kind of monsters would spawn this time and whether he could handle them.

While there was still some time, Li Qingshan took the opportunity to roast some beans over the fire.

He scooped up a handful of beans, placed them beside the fire, and used a stick to pick up some charcoal.

Before long, a fragrant aroma wafted out.

He picked up a few roasted beans and put them in his mouth, waiting until they were fragrant before swallowing them.

Suddenly, he felt something was wrong; his body suddenly became hot, as if he were full of energy.

Li Qingshan picked up a bean, examined it closely, and noticed something unusual.

Unlike regular soybeans, the core of this soybean is red.

He picked up a few more, bit them open, and saw that they were all red.

Could it be related to the cursed field?

He stood up and walked into the radish field.

Half of the radishes grew in the fertile field, and the other half grew outside.

The radishes in the field of the dead were white with red stripes and appeared larger.

The ones in ordinary fields do not have red markings.

Li Qingshan pulled one out to examine it, and after splitting it open, the radish core was also red.

It seems that the crops growing in this ominous field are all a bit off.

After eating these soybeans, I felt warm all over, and my strength seemed to increase slightly.

I wonder what effect eating this radish has.

Why not just eat one yourself and see?

Thinking of this, Li Qingshan sat down by the fire and ate a radish.

After eating, there wasn't much of a reaction.

At this moment, only five minutes remained on the countdown.
