20: Salt mine discovered

After finishing dinner, Lu Fan lay down inside the Shelter.

As far as survival was concerned, he wasn't worried; with the experience from his past life, there was currently no pressure.

Moreover, with the heavenly dao prompt sound cheat active, it saved Lu Fan from many troubles.

What Lu Fan truly found hard to endure was the loneliness.

Especially being alone in the middle of nowhere with no sign of human life, he could only work frantically to numb himself.

In his past life, although Lu Fan often went into the wilderness alone for survival, he would carry a satellite phone back then and could occasionally contact good friends.

Furthermore, he had prepared plenty of music and movies back then, so he had entertainment when things got boring.

Thinking of this, Lu Fan's expression became increasingly lonely.

The viewers in the livestream room also noticed that something was wrong with Lu Fan.

"What's wrong with Great God Lu Fan? He doesn't seem to be in a good mood."

"Sigh, really, what happened? Did he think of something sad?"

"I think Great God must be feeling lonely; he hasn't seen another person for four or five days."

Zhao Hangjun couldn't help but sigh: "Actually, in the wild, besides food and safety, the psychological void is also very serious."

Many people survive hunger only to be driven mad by the environment. If one cannot maintain a good mindset, even their physical health will collapse."

Hearing this, everyone fell silent. In this situation, they had no way to help, nor did they have the right to criticize Lu Fan's vulnerability.

Lu Fan looked at the starry sky; compared to the city, the stars here were like Blu-ray quality, so clear they seemed within reach.

As he watched, Lu Fan couldn't help but start humming a song.

"Da da da da da da..."

In the livestream room.

"I recognize it, it's 'Dull Ice Flower'."

"Why do I feel so much like crying? ಠ╭╮ಠ"

"I feel bad for Great God, having no one to keep him company."

"I miss home too. To earn money, I haven't been back for four years."

"Waaa (ಥ﹏ಥ)"

Unknowingly, Lu Fan drifted into a deep sleep, and the number of viewers in the livestream room gradually decreased.

The next morning, Lu Fan woke up feeling refreshed again.

After making breakfast and eating his fill, Lu Fan patted his stomach contentedly and let out a loud burp.

Then he scrambled up from the bamboo mat and stretched his muscles.

Today, Lu Fan decided to go out hunting.

Although there was no shortage of seafood, the previous Bamboo Rat and rabbit meat were already finished, so he decided to replenish his food supply.

With his self-made bow and arrows on his back, a sharp dagger and Iron Pickaxe tucked at his waist, and a basket on his back, Lu Fan set out on his hunting path with high spirits.

It was still early, but many people had already flooded into the livestream room.

"Good morning everyone, I'm the first one here."

"Great God Lu Fan is setting out again."

"It's great to see Great God Lu Fan has regained his optimism."

"Luck won't be bad for those who love to smile; he'll surely catch some big game."

The viewers chatted back and forth, as if they could already see the scene of Lu Fan returning fully loaded.

Lu Fan walked along the path by the stream, his eyes scanning everywhere, looking for traces of prey.

As he walked, his eyes suddenly lit up. A Mountain Goat appeared in his line of sight, leisurely grazing on the grass. Its plump body made Lu Fan salivate.

"Haha, a good start! Such great luck. Oh Mountain Goat, you really are a delicacy delivered to my door," Lu Fan whispered excitedly, quickly hiding behind a large tree to secretly observe the goat's movements.

He picked up his bow and arrow, aimed at the Mountain Goat, and was just about to fire when the heavenly dao prompt sound rang out.

[Follow the footsteps of the Mountain Goat, and you will discover an open-air Salt Mine.]

Lu Fan's eyes gleamed as he lowered his arrow.

"No, I can't alert the prey. I have to track it quietly and find the Salt Mine first," Lu Fan calculated in his mind, carefully following behind the Mountain Goat while maintaining a certain distance, fearing he might startle it.

Seeing Lu Fan tracking the Mountain Goat, the viewers in the livestream room started flooding the screen with comments.

"Is Lu Fan tracking the goat to find their group?"

"This Mountain Goat looks so fat; Lu Fan will definitely have a big harvest."

Wang Tao: "Lu Fan's hunting skills are getting better and better; he'll definitely return fully loaded this time."

Zhao Hangjun said with a smile: "Tracking prey requires patience and skill. Lu Fan is doing very well; this not only increases the harvest but also avoids unnecessary risks."

Yu Rui couldn't help but be curious: "Lu Fan is so smart, I'm almost impatient to see how he catches the Mountain Goat."

Lu Fan followed the Mountain Goat through patches of woods and across several small streams, unknowingly arriving in front of a mountain mass.

Suddenly, the Mountain Goat stopped, looked up at its surroundings, and seemed to sense something.

Lu Fan quickly hid behind a large rock, held his breath, and remained motionless.

The Mountain Goat then lowered its head, stuck out its tongue, and began licking a rock.

"Looks like this is the place," Lu Fan muttered to himself.

Saying this, Lu Fan gently drew his bow, notched an arrow, and peeked out to aim.

*Whoosh*

The arrow instantly left the string and hit the Mountain Goat's hind leg.

"Baaa~"

The Mountain Goat let out a pitiful cry and immediately fled, dragging its injured leg.

Lu Fan immediately gave chase, and man and goat pursued each other through the jagged rocks.

Taking advantage of the moment the Mountain Goat paused to catch its breath, Lu Fan fired another arrow.

This time the arrow hit the neck; the Mountain Goat could no longer hold on and collapsed to the ground, gasping for air.

Lu Fan walked over with a face full of excitement, crouched down, and touched the goat: "So fat, you Lazy Goat."

[Wilderness Survival Announcement]

[Huaguo Player Lu Fan has triggered the ten thousand times rebate]

[Healthy Mountain Goats * 10,000]

Seeing Lu Fan successfully catch the Mountain Goat, the livestream room also boiled over with excitement.

"Awesome, he caught it!"

"This goat is really fat."

"It's a pity he didn't find the rest of the herd."

Wang Tao: "Hahaha, Contestant Lu Fan has sent us so many resources again, this is just wonderful."

Zhao Hangjun pushed up his glasses and affirmed: "As long as it's preserved properly, Contestant Lu Fan won't have to worry about food for the next few days."

After carrying the Mountain Goat back to the rock pile from earlier and setting it down, Lu Fan began to observe carefully.

He saw that the mountain face had cracked open here, revealing large chunks of white crystals.

He scraped a little bit off with his hand and put it in his mouth; the first sensation was bitterness, but it was immediately followed by a salty taste.

Lu Fan's brows instantly unfurled, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: "It really is a Salt Mine."
