Chapter 008: Qingxu, Fuyiaozi

As for beams and load-bearing structures, there is no need to consider them at all. Who would think about such things in a sandbox game? For Chen Xiyi, the presence of columns and similar elements is not for load-bearing purposes, but rather for aesthetics and enhancing comfort

In just a little over a quarter of an hour, Chen Xiyi constructed a stone house with a full floor and took out various pieces of furniture to enhance comfort

Chen Xiyi pondered for a moment, gazing at his outfit named "Qingxu Sect Master" and then spoke: "Qingxu, Fuyaozi"

This time, I do not intend to use the progress bar method, as it is too slow. Previously, it was for the sake of style, but now, for the sake of efficiency, I can only dig it out myself

You have crafted 100 stone walls at the workbench, consuming 100 units of stone

The sky seems to be getting darker, so it appears I need to set up a shelter first; otherwise, I will have to sleep outdoors at night. Chen Xiyi looked at the setting sun, took out resources such as wood and iron ore, and began to craft a workbench

Chen Xiyi did not speak, but turned around and continued to dig in the soil

The newly generated logs in the game made Chen Xiyi feel somewhat strange. Clearly, both actions involved giving gifts, yet sending the other party braised beef noodles only increased the favorability by 1 point, while giving a wooden sword raised it by 5 points, directly elevating it to a 2-star favorability.

After all, it only occupies that one unit of space

The process of setting up is much faster than that of production; production requires reading the progress bar, whereas setting up does not, as it can simply be extracted and installed

Chen Xiyi looked at the torch in his backpack and began his nighttime mining life

Wu Xiu was not actually disdainful of the wooden sword; rather, he simply did not want to leave

This time, he does not intend to dig on the surface, but rather plans to dig deeper.

The production efficiency is indeed quite fast; at least he managed to produce all the building materials before nightfall

Comfort can enhance one's well-being, as well as restore health points and improve rest efficiency, among other benefits. Essentially, the higher the level of comfort, the better it is.

These items are deeply buried underground, and not much can be seen on the surface

Father, today I encountered a celestial being who bestowed upon me ... ...

After retracting the items from the workbench, Chen Xiyi began mining

Well, since it is so, you may wish to return; this treasure shall be left with you for your protection

Is it looked down upon? Chen Xiyi thought that if the other party didn't want it, then it was fine; he also saved himself a wooden sword

When the time comes, if someone really comes over, he will cover the entrance to the mine with stone flooring. Although this may be somewhat excessive, Chen Xiyi believes it is better to be cautious.

In this stone house, despite the abundance of furniture, the workbench is the most important to Chen Xiyi, so it must be taken away. What if he is mining below and someone comes in above?

... ...

Chen Xiyi certainly did not know, anyway, he just opened his mouth to bluff, whatever looks cool is fine

You gifted a wooden sword to your friend, Scholar Wu Xiu, increasing your affinity by 5, current affinity: 2 stars

A workbench has just been freshly produced

I dare not, thank you for bestowing this treasure, may I ask for your esteemed name

You have crafted a workbench, consuming: 1 unit of iron ore, 5 units of stone, 10 units of wood ... ...

Chen Xiyi glanced at his status bar and then encouraged himself

Then the young man took his leave, saying that if the immortal had any requests, one could send someone to the Wu family in Lingqu City to inform them, and the Wu family would certainly do their utmost. After saying this, Wu Xiu turned and headed in the direction from which he had been called.

Very well, tonight's goal is to use up all the wooden ladders

Then hurriedly began to construct the stone house

As for accompanying others to experience places like Lingqu City, Chen Xiyi is not interested; he is focused on extracting more non-renewable resources, as that represents tangible benefits

This is not a mineral vein, but rather soil. If one were to excavate horizontally, it would collapse due to physical laws, so he can only dig straight down.

Finally finished, this workload is even greater than what I accomplished today. Chen Xiyi sat in the chair, feeling completely relaxed and comfortable

Therefore, he is preparing to go down the mine

In the Wu residence of Lingqu City, after Wu Xiu returned home, he mysteriously pulled his father into the study.

For Chen Xiyi, producing these items is not a loss; when the time comes, they can be taken away, and if they are no longer needed, they can even be thrown into the furnace for reprocessing

Without sand and coal, glass cannot be made; for now, I can only use wooden windows as a temporary solution. As for furniture, it is unnecessary since I brought my own, after all, they are all made of wood. I lack nothing except for wood.

Wu Xiu was increasingly astonished upon hearing this. He knew well the significance of the term 'Qing Xu' and was even more puzzled by the meaning of 'Fu Yao.' However, the addition of the character 'Zi' certainly indicated an extraordinary origin, as only the wise sages of the past would dare to use the character 'Zi'.

Once the torch is secured, it can be used for illumination, while the wooden ladder is naturally intended for climbing

He has always been somewhat dissatisfied with merely excavating soil and stones. If he had a laboratory, then only excavating soil and stones would not be a problem. However, the issue is that he does not have a laboratory and cannot achieve material transformation, so he needs resources such as iron ore and coal

The wooden house seems unsuitable; although it may offer higher comfort, its durability is far inferior to that of a stone house

Chen Xiyi continuously fabricates the building materials he requires at his workbench

Moreover, with ample food support, one can fully recover physical strength quickly

You have crafted 100 torches on the workbench, consuming 100 units of wood and 100 units of resin

In this unknown world, I need sufficient safety rather than comfort. Unfortunately, there is no laboratory; otherwise, if I could create a home protector, I would be able to produce an air wall, which would be equivalent to a low-spec version of a home world

Looking at the brightly lit stone house illuminated by the torches, Chen Xiyi directly consumed food from the inventory and began to continue working at the workbench

Stone walls, stone doors, stone floors, stone roofs, the current stock of stones should be sufficient, and production can proceed without any issues

Saying this, Chen Xiyi took out a wooden sword and handed it to the other party

As for the stone house, resting is one aspect, but another function is, of course, to provide cover.

Unfortunately, Chen Xiyi was unable to understand the purpose of the star rating for this favorability, and the method of upgrading was also quite vague

You crafted a stone on the workbench

You have crafted 300 wooden ladders on the workbench, consuming 300 units of wood

He knows that this world is completely different from his previous life. From the perspective of the other party's ignorance of certain objects, it is certain that they are also unaware of concepts like Qingxu and Fuyiao. In this regard, Chen Xiyi has indeed guessed correctly.

Unfortunately, one can only dig downwards, not horizontally
