Road Survival: My RV is a Moving Castle

Where did 001 go?

Song Chiyu frowned deeply, sensing that this matter was not simple.

[Ding! Player...The host has no right to know! If you wish to repair Mechanical Bear Song Daidai, please first pay 30 Energy Stones or 500 jin of Energy Crystals.]

After saying that, Number 98 fell silent.

Looking at the battered and bruised creature on the ground, Song Chiyu gently stroked its head, just like before.

It's still soft and fluffy, just burnt.

She lowered her head, her gaze slightly somber, and murmured softly.

"Don't worry, little silly, I don't need any other mechanical bears. No one can replace you."

After saying that, she raised her head again and looked at the ethereal figure in the void.

"Won't handing it over to you for repairs erase its independent consciousness? Will it still be the same thing after it's fixed?"

[Ding! The host is not authorized to know!]

There was another moment of silence.

Song Chiyu kept stroking the blank head, as if that would help him think, but his eyes still flickered with confusion.

She really wanted to ask 001 what its words meant, whether those systems would harm Daidai, whether...

Too much uncertainty led her to completely distrust this so-called main system.

At that moment, I heard a very faint sound from 001.

Don't worry, once you've paid, you're treated like royalty.

Its sound faded into the distance, eventually disappearing into the depths of my mind.

Song Chiyu understood...

She took a deep breath, gently picked up Daidai, and nestled her in her arms.

The most urgent thing is to collect the crystal! We need to pay for Daidai's medical expenses.

Without further hesitation, Song Chiyu packed up the waterproof tent, then took out some steamed buns and quickly ate them with Xue Di along with wild grapes.

We must replenish our strength and avoid being misled by the miasma.

As she ate, her brain began to work at high speed.

Yesterday, while inspecting the crystal cave, she roughly counted in her mind that there were about several thousand crystals of different colors inside.

It's more than enough to cover the repair costs for the dummy.

The biggest problem now is the guardians of the crystal, those giant mutated spiders.

You can tell how many of them there are just by listening to their footsteps.

"Snow Empress, can you follow the scent left by the spiders yesterday to find their nest?"

"Squeak squeak squeak!" (No problem!)

That makes things much easier!

After eating and drinking my fill, I felt energetic again.

Song Chiyu set a location on the spot, and a red dot immediately appeared on the map.

He then took out the Power Card from his spatial storage and used it on himself.

She soon discovered that she was filled with boundless power.

Carefully carrying Daidai on her back, Song Chiyu and Xue Di then returned to the Crystal Cave along the route they had taken the day before.

As soon as she left the cave entrance, she discovered that the place that had been shrouded in white mist the night before had now completely dissipated, revealing its original appearance.

What they saw was a huge grassland, about half the size of a football field, with countless cave entrances like the one they were in appearing along the edge, all seemingly leading underground.

This must be the tree root. I never imagined that the tree root and the entire tree were hollow.

Song Chiyu wondered if the peach tree was still alive.

She reached out and placed her hand on the wall, feeling the direction of the peach tree's texture and... the beating of its pulse?

The beating of a pulse?!

Song Chiyu was stunned. She could really feel that the tree had a pulse, which was throbbing strongly and steadily under her palm.

A thousand-year-old peach tree...mutated...

Could it have turned into a demon? Song Chiyu thought with growing dread.

However, she didn't sense any malice from the peach tree, and she even took some of its peach gum.

But if we think about it from another perspective, so what if it's a thousand-year-old peach tree? No matter how powerful it is, it can't be separated from the land.

land?

A brilliant idea flashed through Song Chiyu's mind, and a bold thought came to him.

Didn't she just receive a reward of 10 acres of black soil from 001? Perhaps this peach tree is tired of living here and wants to move to a different place?

Her eyes lit up immediately.

Now that our thinking has changed, there's no rush to go back to the Crystal Cave.

If she could store the peach tree in her spatial dimension, the 500 jin of crystal would already be hers.

So all you need to do next is one thing—get back to the ground!

"Snow Emperor, can you detect which tree root can leave the peach tree and reach the ground directly?"

"Squeak! Squeak! Squeak!" (No problem! Leave it to me!)

Snow Emperor patted its belly with confidence, then raised its head high, activating all five senses—smell, hearing, touch—as if it were in a deserted place.

As expected, professional tasks should be left to professional mice.

In less than five minutes, the entire structure of the peach tree and the direction of its root system were drawn in its mind.

Xue Di slowly opened her eyes, which were filled with a confident and knowing light.

"Squeak! Squeak!" (I found it, follow me!)

Xue Di waved firmly to Song Chiyu and jumped to the edge of the cave to wait for her.

Raising money for Daidai's repairs is now urgent, and no one has time to waste.

Song Chiyu nodded, then mentally asked No. 98 if she could take Daidai back for repairs first, and she could pay for it today.

As expected, he was once again ruthlessly rejected by number 98.

She sighed, and the next second she picked up the 100-pound Silly Bear and walked away from the tree hole step by step.

We arrived at that meadow.

Led by Xue Di, the man, the bear, and the rat walked to a tree hole covered with green vines in the far corner.

It was pitch black inside, without a single ray of light.

Song Chiyu put on night vision goggles and followed Xue Di, stopping and starting as needed, sitting down to rest when he got tired.

After walking for about three hours, Song Chiyu and Xue Di had a simple lunch of steamed buns and sweet potatoes.

Finally, after walking for about an hour, Song Chiyu faintly heard the sound of flowing water.

"Snow Emperor, is the exit underwater?"

"Squeak! Squeak!" (Not really, it's by the water.)

Hearing this, Song Chiyu finally felt relieved.

Although her name contains the character for fish, she is a typical landlubber.

Even though she took a breath-holding pill to solve her underwater breathing problem, she still couldn't swim away.

The sound of water gradually became clearer, and Song Chiyu looked up and saw the cave entrance that was completely covered by vines.

Xue Di ripped off the vines, and intermittent sunlight streamed in from outside.

Sure enough, there was water directly in front of us, like a miniature waterfall. The water flowed out from a crack in the tall rocks next to us and flowed down to form a stream.

The stream is surrounded by lush green grass and wildflowers, a scene full of vitality.

Song Chiyu felt a sharp light in his eyes and squinted slightly to adjust to the light.

They're finally out!

Snow Emperor couldn't wait to jump to the stream and peek out to drink water; its throat was parched.

Song Chiyu carefully placed Daidai against the earthen slope, then sat down next to it to rest.

Looking at the little yellow hairs that had been blown up by the explosion, she gently smoothed them out with her hand.

Song Chiyu remembered that every time she called this little guy over, he would secretly smooth his fur.

Her little bear must want to show her the best side of itself.

Song Chiyu choked up, swallowed hard, and a resolute glint flashed in her eyes once more.

I stood up and looked up.

In the direction where the tree roots meandered, a towering tree stood several hundred meters away.

It is estimated to be 200 meters tall, with its top obscured by white clouds. Among the many trees that are 100 meters tall, it stands out like a crane among chickens, as if it were the guardian of this forest.

"Can peach trees grow this tall?"

Upon seeing the height of the peach tree, Song Chiyu couldn't help but frown.

She's now a little unsure if she can handle it.

However, she has to take this peach tree into her spatial dimension whether she can or cannot do so today.

How will you know if you don't try?

Now she has 10 acres of black soil in her space, enough to hold another peach tree this big.

She glanced at the dazed girl beside her, slowly calmed her heart, then placed her hand on the tree roots and slowly focused her attention.
