The makeup box is palm-sized, boxy, and decorated entirely with silver. In addition to the mirror, it also contains four compartments of powder of different colors.
With Lu Xi's knowledge, she could probably recognize the functions of foundation, highlight, blush, and eye shadow...it was quite complete, although with her current skin color, she didn't really need these.
In addition, there is a separate box of lipstick. It is different from the common tube lipsticks in modern times. It is a small round box with a diameter of only three centimeters. The object inside is red paste. The usage is to apply it with your fingertips. It is standard. True red, quite a beautiful color.
Putting everything back into her handbag, Lu Xi paused for a moment as she looked at the messy gorgeous skirt, thoughtfully.
There seem to be a lot of pearls, gems, gold threads, and gold powder on these dresses...
Without any hesitation, Lu Xi quickly and easily removed all the valuable decorations, tore off a piece of cloth, wrapped it up, and placed it close to her body with her handbag - these things will be her biggest treasure when she finds a place where humans live. confidence.
As for the remaining fabric, she couldn't waste it. Who knew she would have to walk on this grassland for how many days before she could go out, with something that could at least serve as a quilt to keep warm at night.
The skirt support of unknown metal could be disassembled and straightened to be used as a protective weapon. Lu Xi tried it. Although it was a little thin, it was very tough and strong. When combined, it could be used as a shelf support.
The bustle is three metal rings ranging from small to large. The top and bottom are connected with ropes. The smallest ring is stuck on the waist, and then the bottom ring holds up the skirt to make it fluffy.
Normally, the bustle should be made of a relatively hard fabric, but obviously only metal can hold up the thirteen-layer skirt.
After packing everything, Lu Xi picked up the heavy cloth package and was about to follow the direction guided by the game in the novice mission. A sudden strong wind suddenly hit her face.
Before he even opened his eyes, he heard a huge roar from an unknown creature, as if it was about to blow his brains out, coming from the sky.
"hold head high--"
Lu Xi subconsciously raised his head to look in the direction of the sound, and murmured unconsciously, "I seem to have seen a dragon..."
It was a huge icy blue creature that was very similar to Western descriptions of dragons. It looked like a lizard with a bulging belly. It had two huge wings swinging behind it. Every time it waved, a strong wind hit its face. It came with a figure of several hundred meters, so Lu Xi could clearly see the appearance of the huge creature even though it was thousands of meters away.
An inexplicable sense of terror descended on Lu Xi. The metal skirt bracket she was holding in her hands was unable to hold tightly, and it fell to the grass with a moderate collision.
The dragon... was looking at her, the dragon saw her.
A few kilometers away, Lu Xi seemed to be staring at those huge dragon eyes that were as bloody as cold-blooded animals. His body was obviously trembling with fear, but he didn't dare to move, and he was as stiff as wood.
But fortunately, it only took one glance, as if it confirmed that Lu Xi had no "value" or was not a "threat", the huge ice blue dragon withdrew its sight and flew away from the grassland without any pause.
Long after the dragon's figure finally left the sight, Lu Xi fell to the ground without any strength, as if he had escaped from death, gasping for air, "Did I really see the dragon?"
She still couldn't believe what she saw, but as soon as the words came out of her mouth, Lu Xi found that her voice had become hoarse, which seemed to be evidence that she could not argue with.
Shaking his head, which was still buzzing under the dragon's roar, Lu Xi closed his eyes and breathed steadily, trying to stabilize his condition and seize the time to regain his ability to move.
It is known that a giant dragon several hundred meters long just flew past the sky, so what kind of creature would be on the ground?
The appearance of the dragon informed Lu Xi that this was a fantasy world where dragons existed, so Lu Xi had to accept the fact that "since there are dragons in this world, there must be other incredible creatures."
It might have been a few minutes, or it might have been more than ten minutes. Lu Xi finally stood up from the ground. She didn't rush to look at the time on her pocket watch, but sorted out the various information she had collected so far to make a decision. own next action plan.
"The dragon just left. According to normal logic, the aura of the dragon will definitely be left here. No matter where it is, the dragon should be an extremely powerful creature at the top of the food chain, so no creature should dare to stay here in a short time. In other words, it is the safest time to leave and you will not encounter other creatures."
Of course, even if he met other creatures, Lu Xi had to leave. The food and water needed for survival could not be obtained by praying in one place without doing anything.
"It's twelve twenty-seven noon." Lu Xi looked at the time on his pocket watch and placed it where he could easily take it out and check it.
"The temperature of the sun is very high. If the experience on earth is still useful, it should be summer now. It is estimated that it will get dark after 8 pm. I still have seven hours to find food, water and shelter." place."
"The temperature difference between day and night in the grassland is very large, and where there are plants, a lot of dew will accumulate. If you can't find a water source, you can use the method of collecting dew to replenish water. However, the place where you live must ensure that there are no plants and that it is dry enough, so that you can Avoid hypothermia caused by damp clothing.”
Lu Xi spoke slowly but clearly. This kind of self-talk was actually a way to organize his thoughts to distract his attention and dilute the fear in his body.
The effect was good. When Lu Xi raised her head again, her attention was completely focused on the choice of direction.
The direction guided by the novice is slightly different from the direction in which the dragon flew away. The good news is that Lu Xi's destination is not in the same direction as the dragon. The bad news is that if Lu Xi follows the novice's guide, he will not be able to go far before he leaves the dragon's aura. of asylum.
Lu Xi decided to make a compromise. When generally following the novice's guidance, he tried to stay as close to the route that the dragon passed. A slight deviation in the direction would not affect the novice's guidance. Rather, it would automatically adjust the guidance route according to Lu Xi's direction of action. .
It's like a certain German navigation.
I don't know if it was really the influence of the dragon's aura. Lu Xi walked on this grassland for a long time. Except for some small bugs whose species were difficult to distinguish, he didn't even see any larger animals.
Even so, Lu Xi did not let down his guard easily, who knew where they would be hiding.
The terrain on the grassland is not all composed of wild grasses as tall as half a man. There are also sparse woods, exposed soil slopes... and there are also very obvious "paths" left behind by some animals after walking.
Some animals deal with the traces left by their walks because they are worried about being tracked by natural enemies, but some animals do not pay attention to these details because of their own strength, such as elephants on the earth.
Walking along these existing "paths" is much easier than digging through complicated grass.
What makes Lu Xi most fortunate is that the shoes she wears are not the kind of medieval high heels that are difficult to walk on. Although they are still a bit high, the style is closer to long leather boots with thick soles and high heels. The thick heels give It gave Lu Xi a sense of security when walking on unknown ground. At least he was not afraid of stepping on any sharp objects and piercing the soles of his feet.
After his stomach suddenly made a "gurgling" sound, Lu Xi, who was highly alert to the surrounding environment, was stunned for a moment before realizing that the sound came from himself.
She is hungry.
Hunger comes before night.
After opening her pocket watch and taking a look, she realized that she had been walking for five consecutive hours. But the strange thing was that Lu Xi didn't feel tired. Maybe her body had already become numb from this boring walking, and she had lost her ability. the perception of fatigue.
Lu Xi licked her dry lips. What was more troublesome than hunger was actually thirst. The human body would die faster from lack of water than from hunger. Especially after such strenuous exercise like hers, the body would lose even more water, but She couldn't let that stop her.
Dew will accumulate on the branches and leaves of plants at night, which is a safe way to obtain moisture. But it is only five o'clock in the afternoon and the sun is still hanging in the sky. Lu Xi can only focus on other places.
The nearest and easiest thing to get is the wild grasses all around. The water contained in the plants can be used as a supplement to meet Lu Xi's current needs and fill her stomach.
There is not only one kind of plant on the grassland, nor can there be only one kind. What is called weeds is actually the result of the mixed growth of dozens of plants.
Lu Xi lacks knowledge of this world, so he can only rely on his experience on the earth. First, he skips those plants with wrong smells, strange colors, and strange shapes. He doesn't know where he has seen a sentence, saying that it is in nature. Plants with richer colors are usually more dangerous, because they are so "dazzling" that if they were not dangerous, they would have been eaten by various animals.
After picking and choosing, a kind of weed with a slightly ordinary appearance and somewhat familiar grass blades came into Lu Xi's sight. It was a bit like a mustard green on the earth, but it was four or five times larger.
The point is that Lu Xi saw tooth marks left by unknown animals on the leaves of this mustard grass. Some animals had eaten them. It was just that this thing was delicious, non-toxic, and there were several options for eating this thing.
Of course, we can’t rule out the possibility that it’s okay if animals eat it, but it’s poisonous if people eat it. After thinking about it for a while, Lu Xi decided to take a bite first and then wait for half an hour to see if there were any adverse reactions in her body. After all, she didn’t have any more So many choices.
The taste of this kind of mustard grass is not good. It is a bit astringent in the mouth. After the aftertaste, there is a unique bitter taste of the grass. However, the juice is still quite sufficient. Once you take a bite, a stream of grass juice will flow in your mouth. , even more extreme than the iced American style without sugar, Lu Xi soon felt that he was no longer thirsty.
At the same time, she lost most of her desires in life—does she really have to live? !
Traveling to a different world where dragons existed, she was alone on the plains playing wilderness survival. Goldfinger threatened her to complete the task even though she didn't use it. She didn't know anything about the background. She walked on the grassland for several hours, but she continued to eat grass. Life.
Does she really have to live her second life? !
