Lin Dong and Qi Zhi couldn't help but laugh when they saw Su Li's expression.
Qi Zhi turned to Lin Dong: "Brother Lin, it's already 2:30! You and Sister Su Li should go to sleep, I'll stay up all night!"
Lin Dong was about to say something when Qi Zhi interrupted him: "It's okay, it's not like we'll miss half an hour. Besides, I can take a nap while you're cooking tomorrow morning!"
Hearing Qi Zhi say this, Lin Dong finally stopped worrying, nodded, and climbed into his old bed.
Qi Zhi then picked up the tablet that Su Li had put down earlier.
The latter half of the night passed relatively quietly, and the mutated elephant herd that Huang Keke and her group had encountered earlier did not reappear.
Su Li had been keeping watch until midnight before going to sleep, but she was woken up again after only a little over an hour. Now that she was falling asleep again, she just fell into a deep sleep!
The next morning, when she woke up, Lin Dong had already torn half of the cardboard on the window, and the sunlight outside shone into the room. Although there was still some obstruction, it gave people an endless sense of security!
Su Li stared blankly at the bright sunlight streaming through the window above.
For a moment, she thought of many things.
Military service, discharge, family, friendship, time travel, teammates... and Xuan Qing, who has been supporting her since she arrived here and is the most special person to her!
The images flashed before her eyes like a fleeting glimpse, eventually coalescing into a pair of deep blue eyes, clear and bright like jewels.
"Time to get up!"
A cool, icy sound rang in her ears, and Su Li's consciousness gradually returned. Finally, when she saw the cat's head pressed tightly against her nose, she instantly woke up!
Her body jerked backward, and the bed creaked slightly.
The sound attracted the attention of two other people on the second floor. They both looked over at the same time, and when they saw Su Li turn over, Qi Zhi's energetic voice immediately rang out: "Sister Su Li, you're awake!"
Su Li turned her head and saw Qi Zhi and Lin Dong sitting on a bed. One of them was holding a tablet and looking at something, while the other was still reading that book!
She quickly sat up and rubbed her head: "What time is it?"
At that moment, Xuan Qing silently walked to her legs and squatted down: "It's past nine o'clock!"
Su Li was taken aback and quickly looked down at her watch: 9:17!
"It's so late?"
She murmured.
Hearing her muttering to herself, Lin Dong put down his book and looked over: "It's okay, it's our own little team, it doesn't matter if it's early or late, besides, you didn't get much sleep last night anyway."
After saying that, he remembered something and added, "The girl who was unconscious downstairs has woken up, but she is still very weak and cannot be moved for the time being. That girl named Huang Keke gave me thirty crystal cores this morning."
As he spoke, he placed the plastic bag containing the crystal cores in front of Su Li.
Su Li was slightly taken aback. After a while, she reacted and reached out to take it.
These crystal nuclei are very clean; they look like they've been washed with water.
Su Li counted out ten crystal cores from the bag and put them into her own space. She then handed the rest to Lin Dong: "Ten for each of you. You can divide the rest among yourselves."
Then she looked at the two people and the cat and asked, "By the way, you two haven't eaten breakfast yet, have you?"
Qi Zhi raised an eyebrow, smiled and shook his head: "We've eaten! Brother Lin and I both had some bread and sausages, and Xuan Qing ate too. We're not hungry anymore. Sister Su Li, you can get yourself something to eat!"
They all had food in their backpacks.
Su Li could only nod after hearing this, feeling a little embarrassed that she had gotten up late and her teammates had missed their meal.
But to say it again would be too formal.
She then looked at the black cat crouching beside her, stroking her fur, and asked with concern, "Xuanqing, are you feeling better?"
Xuanqing paused upon hearing the sound, then grunted an "Mmm" a second later before continuing to lick its fur.
Su Li didn't care about the cat's indifference; she already knew about his arrogance!
So she got up and quickly washed up, and while she was at it, she watered the crops in the space that needed watering, fertilized the crops that needed fertilizing, and caught the insects that needed catching.
We harvested a lot of fresh vegetables today. The chives we planted have all grown and will weigh about 100 pounds after harvesting. Su Li put them all into the storage room.
However, she didn't plant chives on the land that was vacated; instead, she planted sesame.
Chives grow too fast, and since we don't eat them all the time, they'll get too old if we harvest them too late. It's more convenient to plant them fresh on the spot.
After tending to the fields, she glanced at the aquatic life in the rice paddies, and that made her smile.
It's obvious that the fish and shrimp have grown quite a bit, and the crayfish are already as long as a little finger!
I reckon in another two days, she'll be able to enjoy a fresh bowl of spicy crayfish!
Coming out of the bathroom in a good mood, Su Li rummaged through her online space and finally found a packaged hamburger bun, which she ate with some milk.
After finishing their meal, the three people and the cat discussed their plans for the day.
"Let's just take over the jade shop next door. Since these things can speed up the space's upgrade, why should we waste them? At worst, we can take them to the base later. There will always be higher-ups who need them, and we can also exchange them for money."
Lin Dong said this, thinking that he shouldn't refuse it if it's free.
Although there are many people looking for supplies outside, there are actually quite a few supplies. If Su Li had enough space, they could even go to the cooked food markets, grain processing plants, and various food factories in the suburbs to collect supplies, saving them the trouble of running around everywhere!
Qi Zhi wholeheartedly agreed with Lin Dong's plan!
