At around 10:30 in the morning, the typhoon moved away from the waters near Donghai City, the wind speed dropped completely, and the weather improved.

But the rain has not stopped yet, and the shelves and storage boxes in the large empty warehouse are not suitable to be moved out to get wet in the rain.

Tao Sai found a folding canvas chair and lay down in it, opened the system interface, and paid attention to Hailou's chat channel.

She had spoken to them yesterday. Because they had cleared their name and taken down the murderer, their allies had gotten their revenge and were in a good mood. He Zhaonian even went on a rant about how much he admired Sister Sai.

Tao Sai didn't care much, simply reminding them to keep a low profile on the world channel. It was a simple truth: a tree with a beautiful figure is easily destroyed by the wind; be high-profile in your work, low-profile in your life. She also had a feeling that things were more complicated than they seemed. A "flying boat" had perished, but Jiange still existed. She absolutely didn't believe Jiange could be free of any involvement in this whole thing. Furthermore, the S-rank skill the killer had stolen from a top player was still missing.

Tang Yingxue reported her recent situation on the channel. She had already received calls from several of her friends and their families, who couldn't wait to come to Donghai.

Shi Jiahui's personal affairs were almost complete. If all went well, she and Tang Yingxue would reunite in Jiangling City and then travel together along the Yangtze River to the East China Sea. After experiencing this series of events, everyone understood that sticking together was the safest path.

The discussion on the World Channel raged all night and still hasn't stopped. Players were discussing how the killer had known the top players' exact locations. Naturally, they began to suspect an undercover agent within the Tiger Alliance, or perhaps a tip-off from a top player's refuge ship. However, all of this remained a mystery. The refuge ship disintegrated, and the killer died, his information erased by the system.

The only possible connection to the murderer was his former alliance, Jian Ge. But Jian Ge was cunning and shameless enough to try to distance themselves from the moment the truth was revealed, claiming that "Fei Zhou" was just an extraneous staff member they had never met, and the evidence was that his nickname did not begin with "Yi Jian".

There is no evidence, and although the players have serious doubts, they can only let it go.

Tao Sai indifferently browsed the speeches of the Jiange members, searching for useful information and silently writing it down. She would not let it go like this.

Ten minutes later, Tao Sai turned off the game interface and leaned her face against the backrest of the canvas chair in a relaxed manner. In a flash, she saw the chicken coop that had been put into the large empty warehouse to shelter from the rain. Three old hens were clucking in the coop.

She suddenly thought of the old man she met in the market before.

After equipping the skill [Proxy Vision], Tao Sai switched his vision. In his vision, the proxy viewer should be at home, and the weather would not allow him to go to the market in the city.

It was still raining in the open courtyard. He walked cautiously along the eaves to the chicken coop and fed the chicken feed from a snakeskin bag. The chickens in the cages on the second floor quickly crowded to the trough and pecked at the food fiercely.

Tao Sai counted them from a distance with the help of the surrogate's vision. There were five majestic roosters with bright red combs, and as many as thirty hens. There were also half-grown chicks in the wooden cages, which made the number even greater. Tao Sai couldn't even count the exact number because the surrogate's eyes were moving and the chicks were also moving flexibly.

After feeding the chickens, the old man went to feed the ducks, geese, rabbits, and then went into the pigsty. There were quite a few of each type of poultry and livestock, and they were all fat and plump.

Undoubtedly, this is a large-scale breeding farm.

Sun Haizhu patted the feed residue on his hands, turned around and went to the toilet, and Tao Sai hurriedly left his sight.

The scale of the old man's breeding far exceeded Tao Sai's imagination. At first, she thought he was just an ordinary farmer who raised a few chickens and ducks at home. Now it seems that it is far more than that.

Tao Sai had just observed that just this one meal consumed a lot of feed. In the context of the natural disaster and the end of the world, they would not be able to hold on for long.

In the next two days, Tao Sai changed her perspective from time to time and paid close attention to the situation on the old man's side. As long as he wavered, she would rush over immediately and exchange food for his poultry and livestock.

The weather cleared up at night, and when the sun rose, the sky was clear.

Sun Haizhu pushed the horizontal-bar bicycle out of the house. He picked up the backpack containing more than twenty fresh eggs wrapped in soft cotton wool. He planned to try his luck in the market in the city again.

Pushing the cart onto the road, he stepped on the pedal with one foot, slid out a few steps, and then stepped over with the other leg.

As soon as he went out, Sun Kai raised his hand stealthily and called his wife to come out of the main room.

The old man was very stubborn and insisted on keeping all these, so they agreed to kill half of the chickens, ducks and geese while the old man was away to reduce the burden. When he came back, the matter would be a fait accompli and he would have no choice but to be angry for a while.

Sun Haizhu was riding his bicycle on a country road when he suddenly heard the sound of a car in the distance. Their village was remote and there were not many people living nearby, so the sound of the engine could be clearly heard from far away.

After turning a corner, I saw two silver-white vans.

Before meeting the other car, Sun Haizhu habitually pulled over to the side of the road. The road was so narrow that if there were any bumps, he wouldn't be able to handle it at his age.

After pedaling forward for a few dozen meters, he suddenly shuddered and thought of something. He squeezed the brakes with both hands in an instant, and the tire left a brake mark on the road.

His home is at the end of this small road. He said these two vans looked so familiar. Aren’t they the vans of Boss Yang who stole rice from his home that day?

Sun Haizhu was furious. He didn't know what evil things this bastard was up to. He quickly got out of the car, picked up the horizontal bar, turned the car around, and kicked his legs with all his strength to push back.

When he arrived at his doorstep, he saw two vans parked there.

For a moment, Sun Haizhu was extremely angry. He put down his bicycle, took out the knife he used for self-defense from his backpack, and stabbed it into the tire of the van with a fierce force.

He then rushed into the yard with a stick from the side of the shack.

In the yard, five or six men were confronting Sun Kai. He was holding a chicken-killing knife to give himself courage, but these strong men didn't take him seriously. He was a coward, his hands were shaking, and he couldn't even hold the knife steadily.

"Dad!" Sun Kai was as happy as seeing his savior when he saw Sun Haizhu rushing back.

Hearing the sound, Yang Hailong turned around with a half-smile on his face, "Hey, Old Sun, you're back from the market so soon?"

"What else do you want to do?" Sun Haizhu glared at him.

"Look, didn't I buy rice from your company before? I thought about it, it was a real loss, such a damn big loss. Rice is just rice, it doesn't have much nutrition. Can you give me something else?" Yang Hailong said politely.

When he brought people to move rice that day, he noticed that this family had raised a lot of good things. The van couldn't fit them all, but he kept thinking about them in his mind.

"Fuck you!" Sun Kai yelled.

"Get out, get out." Sun Haizhu was so angry that his heart contracted. He didn't want to waste any more words. He pointed at them with a stick and then at the gate of the yard.

"Old Sun, what are you doing? Are you guilty of making this dirty money? I'm asking you this." Yang Hailong looked fearless and said harshly in the tone of a friendly greeting, "Pay it back to me and we'll be even. Otherwise, I'll destroy your house. Do you believe it?"

Before he finished speaking, one of the guys picked up a stool from the ground and swung it hard. The stool hit the window glass in the room with a clang, and the entire glass shattered into pieces.

Someone in the room cried out "Ouch!" It was the little girl's voice.

Sun Haizhu and Sun Kai were both unable to control their rage. One of them held a stick, and the other held a knife, as they rushed towards the people in the middle of the yard.

Before Sun Kai could even swing his knife, someone grabbed his wrist and snatched the knife away. He was then kicked hard and sent flying, landing flat on his face. Sun Haizhu struck several young men with his stick, but they were all sturdy and rushed forward to kick him despite the blows.

In less than a minute, the father and son were both subdued and pinned to the ground. Sun Kai was stabbed in the shoulder and was bleeding profusely.

Luo Qinqin had just rushed out of the main room with a kitchen knife in hand when Sun Kai desperately shouted, "Don't come out! Go back! Go back quickly!"

She could only retreat to protect her children and her mentally unstable mother-in-law.

Several people looked at each other and couldn't help laughing. They quickly picked up sticks from the ground and went to the main room.

Before they could even reach the stairs, a figure blocked their way at the main hall door.

Tao Sai quickly brushed his front teeth with the toothbrush a few times, then spat out a mouthful of toothpaste foam, then drank half a mouthful of water to rinse his mouth and spit it out again.

When she woke up in the morning, Tao Sai was actually still brushing her teeth. While brushing her teeth, she took a quick look with her [proxy vision], and then she saw a scene of people hurrying on their way.

She knew something was wrong.

Tao Sai calmly put down his toothbrush and mouthwash cup, wiped the remaining water from the corners of his mouth, and exhaled. The toothpaste was good and his breath was quite fresh.

Seeing her calmly complete this series of operations, several people were confused at the same time. Is this woman a little confused about the situation?

Tao Sai slowly took a stance, bent his four fingers together and made an "up" gesture.

She could easily kill these people instantly now, but she decided not to use any skills or weapons to test the results of her training with Cheng Li over the past two days.

The men came to their senses, realizing she had just provoked them, and rushed over to attack her in a rage. The man with the stick swung it viciously at Tao Sai, but she flexed her neck and waist, leaning back into a bow, avoiding the blow. Then she quickly rebounded and punched the man in the face as he was about to step onto the stairs. The powerful blow knocked him to the ground.

After two or three days of training against Cheng Li in the illusion, I can't say that I have made much progress. It's like playing a game. After I have begun to adapt to the high-level monsters, I suddenly return to the novice village.

Cheng Li's attacks were swift as the wind, his movements agile and versatile, his strength as powerful as a mountain. To Tao Sai, these garlics seemed as slow as if they were sped up to 0.5x. The moment a punch was thrown, she could predict its trajectory. Even when outnumbered, she could see through them all. Even if there were any subtle moves she hadn't noticed, they would be weak and ineffective, doing little damage.

After exchanging more than ten moves, Tao Sai didn't want to get entangled with them any more. Sparring with trash would lower his level. So he punched hard and knocked all these people to the ground in a few moves.

Yang Hailong stood there in a daze, dumbfounded.

Seeing that the situation was not right, he was about to run away. Tao Sai picked up a stick on the ground, ran forward a few steps, and threw the stick like a javelin, knocking him directly into the shack near the gate. The firewood in the shack fell down with a clang, burying him inside.

"Girl, you saved the lives of our entire family!" Sun Kai cried out with tears and snot.

Tao Sai looked at his arm, which was still bleeding, and said calmly, "Stop the bleeding first."

"Hey! It's you!" Sun Haizhu exclaimed after seeing the girl's face clearly.

He remembered that day at the market, it was she who wanted to buy his chicken directly. Because business was slow, there were only a few people at his stall, so he had a deep impression of her.

"Uncle, we meet again." Tao Sai smiled and nodded.

The few people brought by Yang Hailong were all seriously injured, but none of them suffered vital injuries. They staggered out of the yard, pulled out the boss who was buried in the shack, and fled in a sports car in a panic.

Sun Haizhu had a few bumps and bruises, but nothing serious. Sun Kai, besides the knife wound, had only minor skin injuries. However, the shattered glass from the stool thrown into the room splashed onto his granddaughter's face, leaving a long bloody streak. Sun Siyao was terrified and cried non-stop.

But as long as people are alive, everything else is a minor problem. Sun Haizhu's family kept thanking Tao Sai for saving their lives, and he suddenly remembered that the girl wanted to buy his chicken.

"Girl, the chickens, ducks and geese my family raises are all outside. I'll give them to you. Take as many as you want. Don't be polite with us. You have to take them no matter what..." Sun Haizhu said from the bottom of his heart.

Tao Sai glanced at the chickens in the chicken coop that were clucking non-stop. She felt so embarrassed.

"Sister, I'm a little confused. My dad said that you and him knew each other in the city, so how did you get together and get here?" Sun Kai scratched his head and asked in confusion.

His home is located in a very remote area with few people around.

This was indeed a bit difficult to explain. Tao Sai suddenly had an idea and lied, "Those nephews also robbed my family's things. I followed them all the way here."
