"Do you have rice?" Xu Lin asked, intrigued.
"Hmm." The woman seemed about to say something, but then closed her mouth again.
Having rice is good, it means they can grow rice, so they definitely won't have a problem with food and clothing.
“Then I’ll exchange a little of each kind. I have five pounds of honey here. See how much you can exchange?” Xu Lin took out five one-pound jars of honey from her backpack.
Being cautious, the woman opened and inspected all the honey, confirming that it was of good quality. She then took the plastic bag that Xu Lin had taken from her bag and went inside to get some grain.
More than ten minutes later, the woman came out of the house carrying 10 bags.
"We still have some garlic and ginger at home, let me pack some for you." The woman handed the bag to Xu Lin.
It's clear that although the woman is very wary, she is still kind-hearted. Her current caution is a product of the apocalypse.
It was clear the older woman didn't want to talk to them much. When asked about building the house, she said it was built by her family and she wasn't sure. When asked how many people were in the family, she was vague. If it weren't for wanting honey, she probably wouldn't have talked to them much. So Xu Lin thanked her and left with Zhou Pin.
"The people here seem to be living a decent life; they have enough to eat," Xu Lin said.
“There must be a river on the mountain, otherwise we can’t grow rice.”
“There must really be wolves on our side, otherwise why would we leave such a large area of resources untapped?”
The two analyzed the situation as they walked back, with Shuke and Beta leading the way. Upon reaching the mountaintop, the dogs suddenly stopped and howled like wolves.
A pack of wolves appeared ahead and stopped about ten meters away. Then the front wolves retreated, revealing two white wolves with exceptionally beautiful fur.
Xu Lin guessed that they were the parents of the two cubs in the space, so she took the two cubs out of the space and put them on the ground.
Thinking they were going to get milk again, the wolves happily rubbed against Xu Lin and Zhou Pin's feet, while the opposing wolf pack was still stunned by Xu Lin's sudden appearance of a live wolf. Seeing that it was the little wolf they had been searching for, they quickly came to their senses.
"Aww~"
The white wolf howled, and the cubs, as if caught skipping school by their parents, immediately quieted down and slowly turned to look at the white wolf.
"Awooo~" the white wolf howled again.
The cubs reluctantly ran to the white wolf's side, looking back as they ran.
After running to the white wolves, they exchanged something, and the two mother wolves each picked up one of their cubs. Then they glanced at Xu Lin and Zhou Pin, turned around, and the pack parted to make way for them as they left.
Xu Lin and Zhou Pin shrugged and said, "Finally, it's been sent out. We don't have to get up to feed the baby tonight."
Zhou Pin led Xu Lin down the mountain. It was already noon. The two found an open space to eat, and then continued on their way back to the place where they planned to build the house. It was already getting dark.
The two went into the space to wash up and rest, preparing to start building the house the next day.
The two got up at five o'clock the next morning. Of course, it was already bright outside. After breakfast, they started building the house according to the information they had researched.
Let's build a treehouse on flat ground first and see how the wolf pack reacts.
Xu Lin had just taken out the materials when the two little ones ran over, pestering her for food. Xu Lin took out some formula from her spatial storage, mixed it, and fed them with a bottle in each hand.
Two white wolves stood in the distance, staring at Xu Lin as if they would pounce on her and bite her neck if she treated the cubs badly.
