   The whole family travels through time and becomes a remnant of the wasteland from the Red Star era. The protagonist's family all have shortcomings, and their tenacity as ordinary people at the bottom allows them to adapt to this wasteland. Everyone's character is not perfect, but they will slowly get better. It's not a cool novel. The protagonist grows up slowly and the emotional line is extremely weak. (Without salvation or the Virgin, everything the protagonists do is to make their families live a better life.) The Red Superstar will enter destruction at some point, interstellar routes will be disconnected, and the choices of senior federal figures will be made.

    In the first book, you encounter a mutant snake at the beginning, and stage a very fast life and death escape, which is an extreme challenge. After escaping, he found a golden finger that purified his powers, but he didn't dare to let anyone know about it, so he could only scavenge alone. He relied on the koi's physique to find supplies that others couldn't find, and killed mutant beasts across levels that others didn't dare to kill. He ate well in the wasteland, harvested precious crystals, drank pure water, and later on gained a powerful boyfriend. The second book, I highly recommend it, I'll read it all. It has a wasteland background but it's hilarious. The heroine is so funny. She scavenges alone in the early stage and fights as a team in the later stage. The male protagonist who is saved by the heroine at the beginning is suspenseful and reasoning, backstabbing + trapping + counter-trapping. Every time the heroine unearths "junk", she will be shocked by the price offered by the apocalypse, which is funny and exciting. In the third book, the heroine was brought to another world by a Qingyuan dragon, where she tested radiation plants and hid in a protective shield to survive. In order to survive, she became stronger with a group of like-minded partners. The fourth book is about scavenging food and farming. The heroine is an ordinary person who just wants to get rich and buy a house. It's a heartwarming story about getting rich.

    ② There is no golden finger in Soul Crossing. I have a younger brother. My older sister goes out to scavenge. The younger brother is organizing things at home. It looks very good. I highly recommend it. ④ The family is old, weak, sick, and disabled. The only one who is healthy and has a relatively intact brother goes out to scavenge. Later, he awakens his powers and raises pets. He also encounters many alien species. In short, it is not a bad idea to join the trap.
