Chapter 762 The Apocalypse Has Truly Arrived (9)

"Do you have any empty buckets for water? There's a spiritual spring in the space. I'll fill some up for you, and you can drink from this from now on."

Ning Yan: "Is there a lot of spiritual spring water?"

"It looks like a well, but I don't know if the daily output is fixed."

Ning Yan took out a bunch of buckets from the Divine Palace. There were never any empty buckets at home, and if one was empty, she would immediately fill it with filtered drinking water. "Pour the water into your field, and while you're at it, test whether the spiritual spring water is inexhaustible."

Xiao Zhongming didn't rush into the space. "Do you want to come in and take a look?"

Ning Yan nodded, "Okay."

Xiao Zhongming first collected the buckets, then reached out and grabbed Ning Yan's hand, and the two instantly disappeared from the spot.

The temperature in the space is comfortable, neither too hot nor too cold.

The thatched cottage is nestled in a bamboo grove, with a cornfield in the distance, a small river flowing gently, and an ancient well right outside the cottage.

Xiao Zhongming poured the water from the bucket into the cornfield.

He stood by the well with an empty bucket in his hand.

"This is it. I just took a sip, and it's quite sweet. It tastes much better than the water at home."

"And..." he said, tearing off his clothes to reveal his bare chest.

He pointed to a spot just below his collarbone, "You see, there used to be a bullet scar here. Now it's just a faint mark; you wouldn't even notice it was ever there unless you looked closely."

Ning Yan didn't look at where he was pointing, but instead looked into his eyes. After all, she had seen countless men, so how could she not see that this man was flirting with her?

However, this guy's overall quality is over 90, so taking him in isn't a bad idea.

"Nice figure."

Xiao Zhongming smiled, a particularly bright smile, "I'm glad you're satisfied."

Ning Yan raised an eyebrow and reached out to touch the scar, which was so shallow it was almost invisible. "What's the use of just looking? You'll only know if you're satisfied after you've used it."

Xiao Zhongming's ears instantly turned red.

But he didn't remove Ning Yan's hand, and Ning Yan could feel Xiao Zhongming's heart starting to pound violently.

To prevent his heart from suddenly leaping out of his chest, Ning Yan withdrew her hand. Xiao Zhongming regretfully buttoned up his shirt. "You wait here. I'll fetch some water right away and see if the spiritual spring water level rises by itself."

Ning Yan agreed and stood aside. However, when she saw him about to use the ladle by the well to scoop water, she quickly stopped him, saying, "Try drawing water with your mind."

"idea?"

Ning Yan: "That's right. You are now the master of this space. In theory, you can control everything here with your mind. Otherwise, you would be exhausted even if you used machines to farm by yourself."

"Then what is intention?"

"To put it simply, it's about your thoughts. If you want to do something, then try your best to think about it. If your mind is clear, you can control everything."

Xiao Zhongming quickly thought of a solution and poured the spiritual spring water into a bucket.

He quickly tried to think, and in a short while, the spring water automatically poured into the bucket, and soon the bucket was full.

Xiao Zhongming was overjoyed and used the same method to fill seven more buckets of water.

The water level in the circular well, which is 80 centimeters in diameter, dropped by about 30 centimeters and failed to rise again for half a day.

"No need to fill it anymore, just leave it like this for now. This well water is probably limited."

Keep an eye on it and see when the water level returns to its previous level.

"Then put all of these away, and use these for all your drinking water from now on."

It's a pity that this water is inexhaustible, otherwise he would have let her bathe in the spiritual spring water.

Ning Yan didn't stand on ceremony and accepted them all.

Xiao Zhongming boldly took Ning Yan's hand and said, "Let me take you for a walk here. There are bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest over there. If you like them, we can dig up a few today and make fresh bamboo shoots for dinner."

Ning Yan did not object.

Xiao Zhongming was very happy. The two stepped into the bamboo forest. As it turned out, there were not only bamboo shoots but also mushrooms in the bamboo forest. Ning Yan filled the basket she brought out with mushrooms. Xiao Zhongming also dug up seven or eight bamboo shoots before the two stopped and returned to the thatched hut.

The room on the east side of the house should have been where the owner rested. It was very simple, with only a bed and no mattress. It was obvious that Zheng Miaomiao had never stayed there.

Ning Yan took out a brand new set of bedding and spread it out. "Would you like to try it out and see how soft it is?"

Xiao Zhongming pressed it casually; it was indeed quite soft, and the cushion was thick enough.

"How can you find out by trying it like this?"

Ning Yan pushed him, and the man slumped onto the bed, his right arm resting on the bed.

Xiao Zhongming's breathing quickened suddenly. In such a secluded place, there were only the two of them in the entire space.

With such beauty before him, especially the one he had fallen for, wouldn't he be a fool not to do something?

With her right hand grabbing the person in front of her, Ning Yan pulled hard and fell onto him.

Strong, powerful arms encircled the petite woman's slender waist, their lips met, and the surrounding air heated up rapidly.

They kissed for a while before separating.

After straightening her wrinkled clothes, Ning Yan coughed lightly. "Cough, let's go check out the other room."

Xiao Zhongming chuckled and said "Okay," then pulled Ning Yan to the next room.

The room was completely filled with all kinds of grains.

"Why would she go next door when she has so much food?"

Ning Yan: "Because there is a high probability that she stole these things from next door."

Xiao Zhongming: ...This kind of person is a curse to anyone who gets close to her. She's too good at causing trouble. No wonder Yan Yan wouldn't open the door for her.

After leaving the storeroom, the two glanced at the kitchen again.

There were only two burners in the kitchen, not even a pot.

Ning Yan searched through her divine palace again; she had previously emptied an entire market.

They sell pots, pans, knives, and kitchen utensils inside.

She quickly found two large eight-inch pots and installed them on the stove.

I also took out a set of all the tools I could use in the kitchen and set them out, and even prepared two sets of water tanks and buckets.

Unfortunately, there's no electricity here, so we can't use electrical appliances, but we can use a gas stove.

Therefore, a gas stove was also brought out.

"We can cook inside now."

The grand undertaking of cooking at home can finally be put to rest.

"Hmm, it seems we'll have to be careful when collecting supplies from now on, even gas canisters. We'll also need to collect some firewood."

Ning Yan: "That's easy. We can lay down some bamboo in the bamboo forest, let it dry, and then use it. Or we can just prune the branches. And when the crops in the fields are ripe, we can use the corn stalks for firewood."

"Yes, yes, you're right." Actually, Xiao Zhongming was already thinking that if he had the chance to go out sometime, he could go to the coal yard and collect some coal, which would be much easier.

"After the corn is harvested, can you help me plant some sweet potatoes? I want to roast them."

Actually, the temple also harvested some sweet potatoes, but even in the market, there weren't many in April, and they didn't taste very good, not as sweet and fragrant as the sweet potatoes from winter.

"Okay, plant it."

The two stayed in the space for nearly an hour before coming out. However, there was a commotion outside the courtyard, and Ning Yan knew immediately that the neighbors had come to cause trouble.

She took a step and walked out.

The reason Zheng Miaomiao was allowed to live a few more days was to gather all the people from the previous life together. Zheng Miaomiao was the main cause of the original owner's death, but those who ate, drank, and lived with the original owner were also accomplices.
