First Day

Morning didn’t come with sunlight, but it came with new hope.

Soft light comes through windows, leaky thatch and broken wall.

Shen Yan opened his eyes when the watch vibrated softly.

The lamp was still burning, weaker than before.

Outside the window, the fog had thinned slightly, enough to reveal vague shadows—trees, maybe rocks. Nothing moved.

He tapped the watch and checks

He sat up slowly. Cold bit through his clothes immediately.

“It's time to go out."

"Then he hears gugulllu ~~~ from stomach."

His stomach answered him with a sharp protest.

He then eats half of the dry bread with mouth full water.

Then he hears some voice and thought

** yesterday I too tried to listen, but I vaguely heard some words! , but my talent only allows me to feel them but not to hear their words .**

** may be my luck."

Thatch Roof : "so cute my young lord."

Wall : "Don't know how the young lord is going to survive here."

Door :" He is too soft."

Workbench: "well big wall sis do you think a young master can understand us"

Door :" Nope, he can only vaguely feel us ok."

Wall:" Thatch brother why do you think that this is a different survival from other races "

Thatch:" survival first stage was created by its own World Dao that's why "

Thatch :" but after early stage all are the same "

Lamp:" But this world's Dao is strong, even has the ability for accession in a few thousand years"

Thatch:" Baby don't try to guess what you shouldn't, because it involves secrets do you hear me "

Lamp : "I'm really sorry "

Workbench: "understand "

**I can't hear everything, maybe my ability is low.**

The hunger eased, but didn’t disappear. It was tolerable. Probably meant to be.

He tapped the watch again.

[Cabin Information]

Broken Thatched Cabin

Durability: 99

Upgrade Available

Wood. Stone. Thatch

All outside.

Door: "open me baby, outside is totally safe"

Wall :" It's time for resource collection (⁠＾⁠3⁠＾⁠♪"

Shen Yan stood by the door for a long moment before opening it.

Cold air rushed in.

The fog lies low, crawling along the ground like something alive but asleep.

Every step outside felt wrong, as if the world was watching without blinking.

“Just a look,” he muttered.

The moment his foot touched the ground—

A faint murmur brushed his ear.

Shen Yan froze.

He didn’t panic.

He simply listened.

The whispers weren’t loud, but they were everywhere—wood that had once been alive, stones that remembered pressure, the ground carrying countless footsteps that never returned.

“… So that’s it,”

he whispered, and moved carefully.

Check surrounding north endless land with half person size grass, in east 100 meters, you can see the lake flowing.

There are vast mountains, Don't know where they span in the west also when you look south you can see endless forest covered with fog.

Only a few meters you can see even in daytime.

"No one can see me, no one can see me ~~"

Where is this sound coming from

*look everywhere*

**sound comes from dry weeds**

"There's a treasure chest lying here."

He takes steps towards a wooden chest

" in the system the rank of chest is:

Wooden, Black Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Black Gold Diamond "

" So there's a probability it gives daily resources."

Good

But it can be also a treasure monster →⁠_⁠→

" Why can this human see me , oh doesn't matter because he may think that I'm a monster"

" Not going to touch me 〜⁠(⁠꒪⁠꒳⁠꒪⁠)⁠〜"

Ok it's a normal chest

* he touches the treasure chest and packs it in his backpack*

it's a good start let's go towards the lake

" This lake goods but is slightly contaminated"

Good I don't take a sip of water

" let's go with the flow, let's go "

The sound comes from this lake .

There's a chest buried under soil in the lake, If I don't hear anything i can't find this treasure chest.

It's getting tricky.

Let's go south and chop some wood and then collect food.

Then Shen Yan finds a tall tree and starts to hit with an axe.

Durability (30/ 50)

It's going to take another 10 minutes.

After some time Shen Yan collected 10 units of wood.

So i need to collect more than 20 to meet requirements and let's collect all the dry wood on the ground.

2 hours later Shen Yan already collected all the wood and also took some rest.

* look at the watch *

There's more than 3 hours of nightfall.

" You know a blizzard is coming and that's why in the neighborhood, in the hollow of old tree, poor squirrel 🐿️ collecting nuts and many more things "

" She doesn't even rest."

"Many small animals are preparing for winter "

"This winter is going to be hard "

"Today there are many berries here "

" Baby gives me one chance, I'm going to make an awesome nest for you (⁠~⁠￣⁠³⁠￣⁠)⁠~ "

"Go away you lazy head, don't come closer (⁠ノ⁠ಠ⁠益⁠ಠ⁠)⁠ノ"

"Sweetie let's choose a place, winter is going to come, what about babies "

" Darling I've already chosen a place let me take you to that place "

Noisy ....

Shen Yan takes all the berries, It looks sweet and tempting but a common type resource.

But It doesn't matter because beggars can't be choosers.

*Sigh

* take a berry and wipe it with a shirt and take a big bite *

Wow so sweet, it's melting in my mouth, so refreshing.

Shen Yan climbed the tree carefully and was skilled in this because he and his brother Jian went to the mountain for climbing.

Now it's helpful in this situation.

When he checked hollow there were many nuts and pista and many more, he collected all without hesitation.

Let's collect some thatch.

He collected all thatch.

When he checks time in the watch

There's only half an hour to a nightfall.

Ok let's go to the cabin and the fog is getting closer.

Shen Yan reached the cabin.

[Notification]

Conditions met you can update your cabin

He clicked the switch update button

After some time

There's a beep sound after he saw a new wooden house without any crack.

* he closed the door *

When looking outside through windows you can see a dark fog which gives pressure that you can't stand

Shen Yan felt mentally and physically exhausted and sat on that, taking some sip from the water bottle.

Thank god I reached home in time.

He checks lamp

Fuel Time: 6 hours

Shen Yan exhaled.

He opened the chat again.

" Water, give me some water, I can give you 100,000"

" Hey delulu upstairs you can't buy if you have 1 billion "

Shen Yan’s fingers paused.

He opened the private chat.
