At this moment in the basement, Sun Ziyi looked at Beibei lying on the ground, sighed slowly, then turned around and ignored her.

He Zixuan glanced at the girl indifferently, then turned and left.

In the dim basement, only Beibei's struggling sound could be heard, and the few of them fell into deep thought again.

He Zixuan looked at Sun Ziyi, who was standing aside with her head down in thought, and a look of worry appeared on her face.

She knew what the other party was thinking. She didn't want Bai Zhu to hurt anyone, nor did she want Lu Kewen to hurt anyone. The only way was to stop Lu Kewen's plan and imprison Bai Zhu at the same time.

But is it really that easy to achieve what we want? Isn't it too... idealistic? Of course...

If Sun Ziyi continues to hold onto this idea, it might only make things worse...

…………

In the clear sky, white clouds drifted leisurely. Under the blue and white painting, two figures lurked in the fields, as if looking for something.

"Xiaobai, Xiaobai! Come here quickly, there's a really big loach!"

Beibei shouted at Xiaobai, then threw her hands into the rice field, stirring up a cloud of mud.

Xiaobai, who heard the call, quickly came to Beibei and looked under the water with inquiring eyes.

As Beibei exerted force with her hands, a long figure was pulled out from the mud in the rice field.

It was a big loach, which was caught by Beibei's hands and was still struggling. Suddenly, a lot of mud splashed and stained the two of them with large stains.

“So slippery!”

Beibei kept fiddling with her hands, trying to hold the big loach tightly, but after a few attempts, the big loach suddenly slipped from Beibei's hands and fell back into the mud field!

"Hurry up, Xiaobai! Catch it!"

Beibei looked at the loach that slipped out of her hand, her little face a little anxious. She shouted at Xiaobai and then pounced on it.

Seeing this, Xiaobai bent down and wanted to catch the big loach, but the water was muddy and turbid, so he couldn't see the loach clearly.

Xiaobai's hands moved quickly, trying to catch the loach, but as soon as he grabbed it, the loach slipped out of his hands.

Beibei, who was standing by, also bent over and, together with Xiaobai, started to chase and intercept the loach, stirring up the clear water in the rice field into muddy water.

“Ouch!”

With a dull collision sound, Xiaobai and Beibei's heads collided directly with each other, and both fell down in the rice field. Their bodies were soaked and covered with large amounts of mud.

The two men rubbed their heads and slowly stood up, looking a little embarrassed.

"I almost caught it...Xiaobai, are you okay?"

Beibei rubbed her head and spoke with some regret, then looked at Xiaobai beside her, and a look of surprise suddenly appeared on her little face.

It was because the girl in the white dress was holding a big loach in her hand, with a smile on her face as she looked at Beibei in front of her.

"I caught it!"

Xiaobai was a little proud. He raised the big loach in his hand and said to Beibei with some excitement in his tone.

The soft sunlight fell on the girl's body, making her figure a little hazy.

On that delicate face, the eyebrows and eyes were curved at this moment, like two crescent moons. A faint blush appeared on the fair face. The corners of the mouth were slightly raised, revealing a brilliant smile on the face, like the warm sun in winter, making people look at it with a bit of obsession...

"Xiaobai, you caught it! You're so awesome!!"

Beibei looked at the loach in Xiaobai's hand, her little face full of joy. She came close to him and spoke excitedly.

"Hehe~ Of course!"

Xiaobai looked at Beibei in front of him with admiration, and his heart was immediately satisfied, with a proud smile on his face.

It’s just a small loach, no problem at all!

As the two figures approached the path in the field, Xiaobai put the loach in his hand into the bamboo basket on the side of the road.

At this time, the bamboo basket was full of loaches they caught, which were struggling and jumping around inside.

"Beibei, you guys are here to catch loaches again."

A figure walked by the side of the road and greeted Xiaobai and the others.

When they heard the sound, they looked and found that it was an uncle carrying farm tools, who seemed to be preparing to go to the fields to work.

"Uncle Wang, come and see, we caught a lot today!"

When Beibei saw the person coming, her little face was a little excited and she waved and talked to the other person.

This uncle is Uncle Wang whom Beibei mentioned earlier. Xiaobai has basically gotten to know everyone in the village in the past few days, so he doesn't have too many questions now.

The villagers here are all very warm and kind, and they often help Xiaobai and the others. It's almost too good...

"Really? Let me take a look..."

When Uncle Wang heard what Beibei said, he carried his farm tools and looked into the bamboo basket, then a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Wow... so many! You two are amazing! You're definitely experts at catching loaches..."

Uncle Wang showed admiration on his face. He slowly looked at Xiaobai and the other two, and spoke with some emotion.

The bearded face was now full of smiles, and he looked very amiable.

"Of course! Xiaobai and I will join forces! No loach can slip through our hands!"

When Beibei heard Uncle Wang’s praise, she immediately put her hands on her hips, her little face full of pride.

Although most of the loaches were caught by Xiaobai, it did not stop her from bragging about it.

Let's join forces and create a better future together!

Xiaobai looked at Beibei beside him, a smile appeared on his face, and he slowly reached out and touched the other's head.

"Ah! Xiaobai, you actually smeared mud on my head!"

Beibei felt a sticky patch on her head, her face a little shocked. She looked at Xiaobai's hand as it was withdrawn, which was covered in mud...

Seeing Beibei's shock, Xiaobai looked at the mud in his hands, then turned his head away with a guilty look, pretending to be looking at the scenery...

"You're so mean! I'm going to smear it on your face too!!"

Beibei looked at Xiaobai who was pretending to be stunned, raised her hands directly, and shouted while trying to wipe Xiaobai's face!

But Xiaobai didn't seem to intend to let Beibei succeed, and he just ran towards the path.

Seeing this, Beibei glared and chased after Xiaobai!

Looking at the two figures running away, Uncle Wang showed a worried look on his face and shouted at them.

"Slow down! Don't fall!"

"I understand, Uncle Wang!"

Beibei shouted in response to the other party, and chased after Xiaobai who was running away in front of her without stopping.

The two figures chased each other on the path in the field, tangling with each other from time to time, smearing mud on each other's faces. The sound of their playful pursuit echoed in the quiet field from time to time...

This kind of life continued for several days. In this peaceful land, the cheerful figures of the two people almost became the norm...
