Chris looked around guiltily, rolled her eyes, and changed the subject:
"Sister Xia Xue, I like the clothes you make. They are beautiful and fit me well. They are the most beautiful clothes I have ever worn."
If someone is so sweet-talking, he must have some ulterior motive or be up to something.
Xia Xue had only seen this kind of situation happen to her own young lady. Every time Jun Shutong fooled a few mysterious beasts, she saw it clearly.
"Tell me, where are the new clothes you just made yesterday?"
"If you don't tell the truth, I'll never do it for you again!"
Xia Xue pretended to be angry and deliberately turned away from her with a stern face.
Seeing that Xia Xue was really angry, Chris hesitated and said:
"I was chasing a rabbit in the mountains yesterday, and it got scratched again."
Xia Xue held her forehead with her hand. "You've only been transformed for three days, and you've already ruined five sets of clothes. If you keep destroying them like this, even if you have a fortune, you won't be able to afford them!"
"Good sister, please make me another one. I promise I will never break it again and I will take good care of it."
Chris pulled Xia Xue's arm and shook her back and forth. Xia Xue was helpless and could only agree to make another set of clothes.
She didn't understand. Chris looked older than her own daughter. According to human age, she should be at least thirteen years old. How could she be so ignorant and run around the mountains all day? She didn't act like a girl at all.
"Forget it. I'll make you another one today. If you scratch it again, I won't care about you."
"Thank you, Sister Xia Xue. You are the best."
Chris smiled with her eyes curved, and surrounded Xia Xue to help.
Ever since she was able to transform at will, Chris never goes home before dark. Of course, the home here naturally refers to Jun Shutong's camp and her space.
Philip follows Jun Shutong like a nanny all day long.
"Girl, I went out for a walk again today, but still no one came."
"Don't worry, just wait patiently, it will be here soon."
"I just don't know, are they from Emperor Shunde, the Holy See, or Xiyue?"
Jun Shutong has been feeling uneasy these days, as if something is about to happen.
She had her fortune told and found out that the future was uncertain. It seemed that her master had said that fortune tellers should not tell her the truth easily.
From the hexagram, she had no way of calculating what would happen next. There was no sign at all, like a blank sheet of paper waiting to be written on.
If it were the people from the Holy See and Western Vietnam, it would be easy to deal with. Just kill them directly. We have already offended them before, so there is no need to deliberately cater to them in order to ease the relationship in the future.
She was afraid that they were Emperor Shunde's people. She had to give some face to the people from her own country. After all, her family was still in Dayu, and they had to survive, develop, and have children there.
During this period, Jun Shutong would leave the space once a day and walk back and forth between the two camps, for fear that someone would suddenly do something bad to the camp.
Almost two months of uneasy days passed, and the Mystical Beast Forest entered winter again, but the camp was still calm.
The temperature is low in winter and it is about to snow. It seems that those people will not come, at least not for now. Jun Shutong also relaxed his mind temporarily.
The iron ore has been mined for almost a year, and several small hills have piled up in the space.
Looking at these resources, Jun Shutong felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.
After this year, it will be time to start iron smelting.
Time passed by little by little in the busyness, and the Xuanshou Forest also welcomed the first snow in the second half of this year.
"Miss, go back quickly. Be careful not to catch a cold."
Yingying shook the snow off Jun Shutong's cloak and put a heater in her hand.
The cold wind was howling, and snowflakes were swirling past. A girl in a red cloak stood tall, looking up at the sky and reaching out to catch the falling snowflakes.
This scene is very similar to previous years.
"Xia Xue, you are closest to the young lady. Have you ever heard her talk about anything related to the fairy world?"
"Yeah, just tell me, I've been wanting to ask for a long time."
"Tell me quickly, tell me quickly, we will keep it strictly confidential."
Ten guards surrounded Xia Xue, handing her fruit, peeling melon seeds, and even fanning her.
Xia Xue snatched the fan from Jun Wu's hand, rolled her eyes at him, and said:
“I don’t know what it is exactly like.”
"But I always hear young ladies mention that our area is too backward. We don't have airplanes, high-speed trains, or even bicycles."
"By the way, the young lady often said that one day she would create her own thermal weapons."
"What about tanks, missiles, aircraft carriers, or something? I don't know if I expressed myself clearly, but a lot of the things you mentioned are things we don't have here, and are basically unheard of."
The guards seemed to be lost in thought. Jun Qi then spoke up, "Although I don't know what high-speed rail is, I'm sure it has something to do with iron."
Everyone looked down on him. Since the word "iron" is in his name, even a fool would know that it is related to iron.
"Nonsense, if you understand it that way, then bicycles are also related to cars?"
"Since you all explain it this way, then the airplane must be a mysterious beast that can fly like a chicken. I guess I'm right, right?"
If Jun Shutong were present, he would have to admire these people's imagination. They are really smart, but sometimes they are really stupid.
After drinking Laba porridge, the Chinese New Year is not far away.
The snowfall has become more frequent, with heavy snow every few days and light snow every two or three days.
Judging from the temperature and the density of snowfall, this year does not seem to be as cold as last year.
