Chapter 49 Treasure Chest

The man had a cold face, no expression could be seen, and he looked completely paralyzed. He said to Ye Xin: "This job is not suitable for girls? I'll do it!"

As he said this, he strode towards the sheepfold. The sheep in his hands did not offer any resistance at all.

Ye Xin only had time to catch her breath when the man grabbed the sheep by the horns and pulled it out.

Father Ye looked at him and couldn't help but praise him: "Good skills!"

Ye Xin tied the sheep with a rope and smiled at him, "With your skills, you can survive anywhere. Why do you have to stay alone in the mountains in the rain?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then said coldly: "I don't like the people here."

Ye Xin looked at Ye's father again, and she finally understood why she thought this man was strange!

When he speaks, he always refers to "them" or "the people here", completely removing himself from the conversation.

Is he not from here?

Looking at the jade pendant on his body, Ye Xin became interested again.

"I have some dry food and vegetables here. You can't just eat meat. Do you need these?"

When he heard the word dry food, the man showed no reaction on his face. But when he heard the word vegetables, his expression changed.

Ye Xin and his daughter didn't know that this man had been in the mountains for more than a month and survived entirely on meat.

Let’s not talk about whether eating meat for a long time is good or not. If you don’t eat vegetables for a long time and dietary fiber is not replenished in time, defecation will be your biggest pain.

Only those who try it will know how it feels!

When he heard that Ye Xin had vegetables here, he couldn't hide the surprise on his face.

"Vegetables are fine, how do I change?"

She pointed at the jade pendant on the man's body and said, "I don't want the sheep anymore. I want this. Three pounds of vegetables. Do you want to exchange them?"

The man stroked the jade pendant with his hand, looking reluctant to part with it. After a long while, he seemed to make up his mind: "Ten kilograms! No less, no discussion! I want green leafy vegetables."

Ye Xin shook her head: "Vegetables are too rare now. We don't have 10 kilograms, but we can consider 5 kilograms."

The man showed a painful expression on his face, and after a long while he nodded and agreed: "Okay! It's a deal!"

Ye Xin stretched out her hand: "I want to check the goods first."

The man took the jade pendant off his body and handed it to Ye Xin. He watched Ye Xin stroke it for a long time and then put it in his pocket.

A smile gradually appeared on his face: "Deal!"

The man looked at Ye Xin and Ye's father. This father and daughter had nothing else on them except the backpack the girl was carrying. Where were the vegetables?

Ye Xin calmly took off his backpack, rummaged around in it for a while, and took out three bundles of vegetables.

A handful of spinach, a handful of celery, and a bunch of vegetables he couldn't name, all of which looked green and very fresh.

Ye Xin handed the vegetables over: "You're lucky. I brought these with me when I went out today."

The man looked at Ye Xin with inquiring eyes: The salt is taken out from here, and so are the three large bundles of vegetables.

Now her bag still looks bulging. Is it a treasure chest? How much can it hold?

Ye Xin pulled the goat and turned back to wave to the man: "Let's go! My name is Ye Xin. If you have any more jade pendants like this, come to the west of the city to find me."

The man looked at her receding figure and murmured several times: "Ye Xin, Ye Xin!"

Father Ye glared at his daughter in dissatisfaction: "You shouldn't have told him the address. What if he's not a good guy? With his skills, even if there are three of us, we probably wouldn't be a match for him."

Ye Xin smiled and said, "I only said the west of the city, but I didn't say where specifically. What are you afraid of? If we know the general direction, we might run into him when we go out."

What Mr. Ye didn’t know was what did Ye Xin get in exchange for the five kilograms of vegetables?

Her space has more than doubled! It has more energy than that carved bed!

At first she just wanted to throw the jade pendant into the space to give it a try. If the space didn’t eat it, then the deal would be over.

Who knew that the jade pendant was swallowed up as soon as it entered the space, and the black soil in the garden expanded more than twice!

What surprised Ye Xin the most was that her space had been upgraded!

The fourth-level space not only unlocks more shopping mall redemption systems, but also allows people to stay inside longer!

Upon hearing this, Ye's father was also very happy: "We have made a fortune this time. But this jade pendant may also be of special significance to him. Look at how reluctant he was to part with it."

Ye Xin disagreed: "It's just a jade pendant. What's the point of keeping it if it's not suitable for eating or drinking in this end times? Saving your life is more important."

Ye's father did not refute it, his daughter was right.

The two walked to the foot of the mountain together. After making sure the surroundings were safe, Ye Xin took out the assault boat and put the goat into the space.

The father and daughter headed towards the dormitory.

It’s getting late, let’s talk about the rest tomorrow!

The flood was still receding rapidly, and Ye Xin sensitively felt that the water level on the ground was much lower than when they arrived.

Maybe it’s because the sewers have been cleaned manually!

These days Ye Xin can see people cleaning the sewers every day.

Now many people are looking forward to returning to normal life after the flood recedes, but only Ye Xin knows that the day the flood recedes is the day when extreme cold weather arrives!

Back at the factory dormitory, Ye's mother opened the door and said, "Come in! Hey! You don't know how worried I am when you go out in the middle of the day."

"After you left, I ran to the window to measure the temperature. Guess how high the temperature was outside when I stuck the thermometer out of the window?"

Ye Xin replied without turning her head: "About 50 degrees?"

Ye's mother shook her head: "Another ten degrees! A full 60 degrees! Oh my God! No wonder so many people are dying of heat outside. Even the air conditioner doesn't work."

"Su Jing said that someone upstairs died of heatstroke in their home and was not discovered until he was stinking."

"Su Jing is here?"

"Yes!" Ye's mother nodded and took out a bag of rice from the kitchen: "I'm here to deliver food. I'll leave after delivering it."

Ye Xin was stunned: "No wonder when I went to send Su Jing off last time, I felt a strange smell in the corridor when I came out! How did they deal with the body?"

Ye Xin was afraid that the zombie virus would appear prematurely and was very concerned about it.

Ye's mother shook her head. "It is said that Mo Pengfei arranged for someone to carry the body out and handed it over to the corpse recovery team. But he led people to search the family's belongings and even fought over a pack of instant noodles."

Xuanxuan suddenly spoke up: "Aunt Su said that Gu Nan's head was broken."

Ye Xin was stunned: "He also went to rob?"

"That shameless guy went to look for that woman next door again, and she ended up looking for the next house. The man in that house beat him up and threw him out without taking anything with him. He almost drowned."

"Look, after the couple died, he and Gu Siyan both died. They had their heads broken for a pack of instant noodles."

After hearing what Ye's mother said, Ye Xin said nothing more, thinking: He deserves it! A grown man doesn't know how to go out to find food, and no one would feel sorry for him even if he starved to death.

Ye Xin ignored all this mess and immersed his thoughts in space, dividing the newly created black soil into pieces and planting grains and vegetables.

The vegetables had been growing well before, but now it was time to weed and water them. She really couldn't handle it all by herself.

Looking at Ye's father's small wooden house in the middle of the black land, she had an idea and carefully moved it next to the cabin. This would not only save space on the black land, but also look more harmonious.

After doing this, she quickly came to her senses.

Eat! After dinner, send Little White Mouse to deal with Mo Pengfei!

She couldn't sleep well with this man around.
