The place where Shen Nan took shelter from the rain was a small hole at the root of a big tree that was gnawed by insects. Now the rain was quietly increasing again, making the place seem even more cramped.

This tree hole was close to the ground and had no height at all. After the heavy rain lasted for only a short while, the accumulated water quickly flooded in. Shen Nan's boots were soon soaked. The cold water vapor penetrated the upper, making him shiver.

Seeing this, Fanfan rushed into the heavy rain, looking around for a more suitable place that could shelter from the wind and rain.

This time the rain was sudden and heavy. When Shen Nan and Fan Fan arrived at the latest shelter they found, both Shen Nan and the little fur ball were soaked like drowned rats.

The newly discovered cave is really nice.

In view of the danger of previous heavy rains uprooting some small trees, it deliberately avoided the tree holes this time and chose the concave part in the middle of a huge rock as its shelter.

Although the terrain here is not high, it is enough to avoid the misfortune of being flooded by water.

As soon as he arrived at the new shelter, Shen Nan planned to make a fire to keep warm, after all, his clothes were soaked by the rain.

Shen Nan built a fire with wood, and the little furball volunteered: "Let me do it!"

"Okay, you come." Shen Nan smiled slightly and made way for him.

The little ball of fur was also in a miserable state at this time. All the hair on its body was soaked by the rain and stuck to its skin in a mess.

It approached the woodpile, opened its mouth slightly, and a ball of fire spewed out of its mouth toward the wood.

With a loud bang, the pile of wood began to burn instantly.

"Thank you, little furball." Shen Nan said gratefully.

The little fur ball raised his head proudly, "You're welcome."

After saying that, he sat down by the fire and began to lick and comb his hair.

Shen Nan also quickly took off his clothes that were soaked by the rain, took out cotton cloth to wrap his body tightly, and then took out a bucket and poured some water into it.

Since his clothes were wet anyway, he decided to take this opportunity to wash them.

He washed the clothes quickly and hung them by the fire.

Seeing that the little fur ball was still licking its fur, Shen Nan took out another piece of cotton cloth and said softly, "Little fur ball, let me help you wipe it."

At this time, except for his arms, the rest of Shen Nan's body was wrapped tightly in cotton cloth, and he looked like a mummy.

The little fur ball walked lightly to Shen Nan, squatted down, and obediently let Shen Nan wipe its hair with cotton cloth.

After the rainwater on the hair was absorbed by the cotton cloth, Shen Nan gently rubbed the little fur ball's head and said softly: "Okay, sit by the fire for a while, it will be dry soon."

The little fur ball turned its body, looked at its half-dry hair, and whispered softly, "Thank you." Human.

"You're welcome." Shen Nan responded with a smile.

After a busy period, the travel boots being made on the processing table were finally completed.

After 5 hours of operation, the three processing tables produced a total of 3000 pairs of travel boots.

Shen Nan left one processing slot specifically for making matches, and the rest of the processing slots were used to make travel boots.

The raw materials needed to make matches are 2 units of wood and 1 unit of sulfur. However, during this period, Shen Nan only purchased 17 units of sulfur.

However, 1 unit of sulfur can produce 20 boxes of matches, so 17 units of sulfur can bring him 340 boxes of matches, each box containing 50 matches.

The processing time of a match is 10 minutes. Based on 17 units of material, it will take 2 hours and 50 minutes to complete the entire processing. At this time, there are still at least four hours before darkness and fog fall.

"At least I can help some people who are in trouble because they can't make a fire before the fog comes." Shen Nan thought. Although the number of matches is limited, every person who can be helped is a person who can be helped.

However, he only planned to sell these matches to the Xia people!

Although he is willing to lend a helping hand within his ability, he will not refuse everyone who comes to him.

After finishing the tasks at hand, there was still some free time before dinner time, so Shen Nan turned on the light curtain again to kill time when he had nothing to do.

Just then a transaction application suddenly popped up.

He glanced at the applicant's name, Ren Linhe.

An irrepressible joy suddenly surged in Shen Nan's heart.

His Rafflesia finally found its place!

But then I thought, it was raining heavily outside, and Uncle Ren was still running around outside. Hadn't he found a place to shelter from the rain yet?

Shen Nan couldn't help but feel a little worried. Uncle Ren was so disregarding his own safety. What if he caught a cold after getting caught in the rain?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curl his lips slightly with a hint of anger.

[System prompt: The transaction is successful, you get a Rafflesia. ]

[System prompt: You have collected a Rafflesia flower. Do you want to accept the task now? ]

"Haha, that's what I said, I collect things. No matter what method is used, as long as the things are in my hands, they are my collection!"

When Shen Nan saw the system prompt, his mood suddenly brightened and he felt relieved.

The pressure of this mission was instantly reduced a lot. At least he no longer had to go around looking for Rafflesia himself!

Among the hundreds of millions of survivors, he didn't believe that anyone else would encounter this kind of flower.

However, when he saw the two task options again, he fell into a new round of hesitation and entanglement.

Although the task of the Rafflesia is easy to solve, what about the Piranha Plant?

This is not a task that can be easily accomplished by simply collecting or purchasing it from others. Instead, you need to find it first and then kill it, which is quite difficult.

With a "beep", the system prompt sound brought Shen Nan's thoughts back to reality, and he temporarily put aside the entanglement of the task.

[Ren Linhe: How is it, can the task be completed?]

Seeing the inquiry from Ren Linhe, Shen Nan quickly replied.

[Friend Nan: Yes! Even if you didn’t find the Rafflesia yourself, it still counts.]

[Ren Linhe: That's good. I'll ask others to keep an eye on it. Don't worry.]

[Friend Nan: Uh-huh, is Uncle Ren still busy outside? It’s raining so hard now, be careful not to catch a cold.]

On the other side, Ren Linhe was standing in the rain, chasing and slashing at a green ground beetle with a weapon in hand.

When he saw the concerned greetings from Shen Nan on the screen, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, revealing a warm smile.

[Ren Linhe: Yes, I have already returned to the shelter.]

Shen Nan finally felt relieved when he learned that Ren Linhe had returned safely to the shelter.

〔Friend Nan: OK, that's good.〕

After finishing the chat, Shen Nan opened his backpack to check if there was anything special about the Rafflesia flower that was specifically required for the task.

[Rafflesia: a special flower series from the Misty Forest.]

There are only these few words of description, and no other introduction.

Shen Nan couldn't help but complain, "That's it? Even the knotweed has a long paragraph introducing its effects, isn't this Rafflesia too low-brow?"

Fanfan: My little master, it’s time for dinner.

A lot of voices rang in Shen Nan's mind. Shen Nan raised his head and responded with a smile: "I'm coming."

Then he patted the little ball of fur and said excitedly, "Let's go have dinner. We have delicious food tonight!"

The 6 "activity treasure chests" obtained in the morning opened 200 interstellar passes and 2 Qingling fruits.

What surprised Shen Nan the most was that in addition to these two items, there was also a box of instant noodles and a box of self-heating hot pot.

These items opened from the "activity treasure chest" are naturally perfectly matched to the survivors' current tiny size. They are all small and just right.

After getting the processing table, Shen Nan prepared several sets of kitchen utensils in advance.

Tonight, Fanfan used kitchen utensils to boil water and cooked two packets of instant noodles and two servings of self-heating hotpot.

Tonight, he and his little furball can finally enjoy a hearty dinner, no more dry bread and greasy meat!

And Fanfan still chose to enjoy its favorite roasted blood-thirsty ant legs.

After contentedly finishing a bowl of instant noodles and a self-heating hotpot, Shen Nan and the little ball of fur both covered their round bellies and collapsed on the lush vines, enjoying this rare and relaxing time.

"Hiccup~"

Shen Nan burped and then sighed, "Ah~ I'm so full, so stuffed..." At this moment, he was still immersed in the happiness brought by the food.

"Ohhh..." The little fur ball was also making satisfied humming sounds, as if expressing the same feelings as Shen Nan.

Suddenly hearing this long-lost whimpering sound, Shen Nan smiled wickedly and teased, "Speak human language."

The little fur ball understood what Shen Nan meant. He snorted coldly, turned over, and turned his back to Shen Nan, looking angry.

Seeing this, Shen Nan hugged the little fur ball into his arms and coaxed him softly: "I was just joking, don't be angry."

Although the little fur ball didn't respond out loud, it didn't struggle to break free either. Instead, it just quietly leaned its head on Shen Nan's arm, with its two tails swaying gently and comfortably.

In this way, the man and the beast took a short rest until a "beep" sound came from the processing table, indicating that the matches had been processed.

At this time, Shen Nan also brought exciting good news about the Fulu boots that he put on the trading area.

Someone left a message saying that he had a Rafflesia flower, but the condition for exchange was two pairs of travel boots.

Shen Nan thought about it for a moment and agreed to the other party's request.

Since the other party requested an additional pair of travel boots in the transaction, Shen Nan also added a condition accordingly.

In addition to the other party giving a Rafflesia flower, they must also provide a total of 300 units of animal skins, cotton cloth or sulfur as a supplement for the exchange.

The other party responded very quickly and agreed to the deal.

"Oh, today is such a day of great news, I'm so happy!" Shen Nan, in a good mood, hugged the little fur ball excitedly and gave it a big kiss on the forehead.

The little fur ball twisted its body slightly, but did not break free from Shen Nan's arms. It just gently swept Shen Nan's ankles twice with its tail, as if responding to Shen Nan's intimate gesture.
