Chereads / Solo farming in tower(system) / Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: fire

Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: fire

Sejun quickly grasped the pink atmosphere flowing between them.

"You couple?"

Beep!

Beep!

They both nodded at the same time.

'shit!'

I did it, but now I'm stuck between a couple of rabbits…

In college, I didn't have a friend with whom I could have a break time, so I had a meal with a couple. It was really embarrassing, but I couldn't eat alone for a semester, so I did it together.

Then one day, while eating together, a cold wind blew between them. will fight Sejun felt sick while eating that day.

'And I got the ability to eat alone.'

After that, I decided that I would never eat with a couple again…

Beep.

Perhaps feeling the strange atmosphere of Sejun, the husband rabbit rubbed his face in Sejun's hands and acted aegyo. It was a desperate gesture to be allowed to stay here.

'I'm trying so hard to protect my family…'

Sejun's heart weakened. And I felt ashamed of myself for still being tied to the past.

'okay. They were a couple and they are a couple.'

Sejun did not know the profound world of the couple.

"Yes. Stay here. Instead, it's not free."

It wasn't what I was expecting.

Beep!

Beep!

Upon Sejun's consent, the couple nodded vigorously as if it were natural, and ran to the corner of the cave and began digging a burrow to build their own shelter.

"cave?"

As Sejun watched a rabbit dig a burrow, something flashed into his mind. When I thought about it, I thought that I could dig a hole here and get out.

'Stupidly! There was a hole at the top, so I thought only that way!'

"rabbit!"

Beep?

Husband Rabbit, who was digging hard, poked out his head at Sejun's call.

"Can you dig a tunnel and get out of here?"

Beep…

The rabbit thought for a moment and then shook his head from side to side.

"no?"

Snug.

The rabbit started painting on the floor. I drew a cave where Sejun was and started digging deep underneath it.

and

shoot

I poured water into the hole with the water stopper I was holding. The bottom of Sejun's cave was filled with water.

"Ah. The bottom is all water."

Beep!

Rabbit nodded.

"Okay. Keep doing what you're doing."

Beep!

The rabbit went to dig the burrow again.

Then

beep beep beep beep beep beep.

The alarm went off. The battery of the smartphone is 100%. Considering the laptop's discharge rate, it seemed like it could be fully charged at least once.

[May 16th, 6:00 am]

Sejun's daily routine has begun.

First, I checked cherry tomato sprouts.

"Guys, good job."

(…T…)

Now the green leaves are in full bloom. There was no news about the sweet potato field yet.

Sejun went to the pond to wash his face and water the field.

And

puudeudeuk. puudeudeuk.

I broke the green onion so that the cherry tomato sprouts could see the sun. The more the green onion is broken, the thicker the stem becomes, the more leaves it produces. At first, there were about 3 leaves per scallion, but now there are 8.

"Wouldn't it be work to beat them later?"

Sejun plucked the leaves and dried them in the sun. The leaves, which were first exposed to the sun, are now almost dry and hardened.

crunchy

Sejun finished his morning work by eating the leaves he had just picked. Now, after 8 hours, break the green onion once more and water it, and the day's work is over.

After work, Sejun sat in his designated seat and stared blankly at the sky.

How long have you been looking at the sky?

Woo-wook! Woo-wook!

Boo! Boo!

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Sejun looked in the direction the sound was coming from. It was the sound the rabbits had dug.

The sound quickly cut off.

"what?"

When Sejun looks at the sky again and tries to fall into a daze,

Woowook! Woowook!

Boo! Boo!

The sound came again. When I listened closely, it was a gasping sound.

'no way?!'

"These!"

The rabbit couple was engaged in breeding activities as soon as they made a shelter.

Since then, breeding activities have continued several more times.

a few hours later.

At 2:00 PM, Sejun woke up to do afternoon work.

beep

then

Beep.

The rabbit couple came out of the burrow amicably.

Then, moving quickly, Sejun started the farming work he wanted to do.

beep beep.

shoot it

The husband rabbit hummed and watered the crops with a watering

can.

Snip, snip.

The wife rabbit cut the green onion with scissors while harmonizing with the song of the husband rabbit.

The husband sings and the wife sings along. Buchangbusu (夫唱婦隨). That word just came to mind.

However, there was something else that bothered Sejun.

"What are those things…"

Turns out, the watering can that the husband rabbit was holding and the apron that the wife rabbit was wearing were items.

Water continued to come out of the watering can without stopping. And the apron must have been enchanted with space. My wife Rabbit took out the apron whenever she needed farming tools like scissors or a shovel.

I was a bit envious. Do you have such equipment? He dug and tore it with his hands and poured water on it.

Time went well as I watched the rabbits work.

But it soon got boring. At that time, the light passing through the plastic bottle placed next to it was refracted and gathered into a strong light.

When I saw that, something immediately came to mind. In the past, there was a TV show where survival experts appeared, and I remembered a scene where they put water in a plastic bottle and set it on fire.

'Should I light a fire?'

If you set fire to the well-dried pie leaves, it seemed that they would burn well.

"good."

Sejun got up and gathered the well-dried scallion leaves.

And

boo-wook, boo-wook.

I tore the leaves thinly and gathered them well in the center so that they could catch fire.

Then, Sejun used a plastic bottle filled with water to focus the light like a magnifying glass on one point and began to sting the pie leaves.

Beep?

beep?

When Sejun did not move in the same position for more than 20 minutes, a rabbit couple approached. He seemed curious about what the farm owner was doing. After about 10 minutes

of nodding off

, the rabbits began to doze off as if they were bored.

Morakmorak

then .

Smoke rose from the pile of shredded pie leaves. embers were made

'do!'

Sejun focused even more and shone the light on the embers with a plastic bottle. The fire grew stronger and the smoke grew thicker.

"Whoa! Whoa!"

Sejun picked up the shredded leaf that contained the fire and carefully blew into it.

The rabbit couple woke up to the sound of blowing air and looked at Sejun.

And

beep!

Beep!

I was astonished to see the smoking pie lapis.

How much wind would it blow?

Roaring.

A fire broke out and vomited out the flames.

"Hehehe! That's it!"

Beep.

Beep.

The rabbit and the couple looked at Sejun with respect. Among the rabbits' items, there were no items that could light a fire.

The first thing Sejun did when the fire started was to roast green onions and eat them. I just wanted to fill my stomach with something warm.

The dried scallions became hard enough to be used as firewood, making it difficult to eat.

As the outside of the green onion was charred, Sejun grabbed the tip and lifted it up.

And

"Oh! Hot! Whoa."

Blowing his fingers, he placed them on top of the other leaves to peel off the charred skins of the green onion.

He lifted the grilled green onion and put the peeled part in his mouth.

rain.

'…Sweet!'

Sejun's eyes widened at the great taste. Sugar ran amok in my mouth. A tremendous sweetness exploded.

Sejun threw some green onions into the flames and began to eat them hastily.

Beep?

At Sejun's reaction, her husband rabbit courageously put the green onion into the fire.

And after a while,

beep!

Beep!

The rabbit couple peeled and ate the green onion with impressed expressions. All three of them ate with soot on their faces.

7th day of distress.

For the first time, Sejun filled his stomach with warm food and went to sleep.

Beep beep beep beep beep.

[6 am on May 19th]

10th day of distress.

"It's okay."

Sejun woke up energetic today too.

Beep!

Beep!

The rabbit couple got up first and greeted Sejun.

"Yes. Good morning."

Whoops! Whoops!

Sejun went to the pond, washed his face, and sat down.

Beep.

My wife, rabbit, brought me some grilled green onions.

"thank you."

Sejun said as he received the food.

munching.

While eating grilled green onions, I saw fields planted with crops. The diggers had already been cut and the ground was damp. The early rabbits have already finished their work.

In addition, his wife Rabbit even made a meal for him. It's so good that you know how to do it.

But

"..."

There was nothing more to do in a place where there was nothing to do.

"I need to move a bit."

Today, I decided to transplant the cherry tomatoes that I had been putting off. If they grow too close together, they cannot absorb nutrients properly, so it is time to transplant them.

puck puck.

Sejun dug up the soil with his hands, moved the cherry tomatoes, made a place to plant them, and

fell asleep.

The husband rabbit carefully scooped them up one by one with a shovel the size of a spoon. While moving, 6 sprouts planted later were also moved.

A total of 58 buds were made in 6 rows of 10 each.

"Whoa."

Seeing the well-planted buds lined up in a row made me feel proud again. Sejun was easily proud of trivial things these days.

Sejun started a new job right after transplanting and planting the cherry tomatoes.

making a torch.

I made a handle by weaving together several leaves cut today, and tore the dried leaves into small pieces at the end and wound them hundreds of times.

The dried pie leaves seemed to keep burning for quite some time and could be turned into torches. In fact, the pie paris burned for a long time so that there was no need to do separate fire management.

It was a tedious job that would normally be beaten right away. But now, it was so much fun to use my own body to make things I needed in my life with my own will.

After investing a few hours to make a torch, the alarm sounded to inform that it was time to go to bed.

Beep beep beep beep beep beep beep beep

[6 a.m., May 20] The

morning of the 11th day of distress was bright.

"Eutcha!"

Beep!

Beep!

"Yes. Good morning."

As soon as I woke up, I said good morning to the rabbit couple and went to the pond to wash my face.

The pond was brighter than yesterday. Sejun, who always felt uncomfortable in the dark when washing his face, first set up a torch in the pond.

"Good. Hehehe."

Sejun took his face to the pond to wash his face while watching the burning torch. Splash

then

!

A fish suddenly jumped out of the pond and tried to bite Sejun in the face.

"100 million?!"

Sejun hurriedly leaned back. The fishy smell of water from the body of the fish crossed the tip of my nose. I just barely dodged it.

flutter.

The fish that fell to the ground struggled to get back into the water.

"What… what?!"

Confused, Sejun approached the fluttering fish and took a closer look.

It had golden stripes on a black background and had sharp teeth.

If I was really late, my nose would have been cut off.

puck!

Sejun kicked the fish to the other side of the pond to prevent it from escaping.

And I looked into the pond.

"oh!"

Inside, several more species were swimming like the fish that had just attacked Sejun.

"Why is it here?"

While Sejun was thinking about the reason,

fluttering.

The fish were moving and trying to escape to the pond.

'It's not the time to be like this!'

Sejun hurriedly caught the fish that had fallen to the ground.

On the 11th day of distress, I was finally able to eat meat.

One day, a mysterious tower suddenly appeared in the city. The people decided to call it a dungeon, and while it was full of rugged terrain and dangerous monsters, it was also a land of opportunity, where countless treasures awaited. When Sejun, a young man living an ordinary life, is invited to the dungeon by chance, he is thrilled at the prospect of becoming rich, but he is stranded in a hidden area of the mysterious tower. All he has is a few seeds and his body. Now Sejun must farm, collect resources, and figure out his own survival strategy!
