When Yan Xia stood in the courtyard and looked up, she was dumbfounded.
The sun seemed to be more than twice as big.
The scorching sun beat down on the entire land.
In the morning, Yan Xia arrived outside the city and found many people kneeling on the ground and weeping. Some were even begging Buddha to bless them with rain as soon as possible, since there were still half a month until the rice harvest.
If the sun is this scorching every day, the rice will probably wither and die in less than three days.
"It's over, it's really over."
As Yan Xia was filled with worry, Magistrate Lu arrived.
He muttered to himself, his eyes glazed over.
"It's okay, it will rain, but it'll only last one day, don't be afraid." Yan Xia knew that this was just useless comfort.
After a while, she couldn't stand the heat.
Back at the mansion.
As the day passed, darkness fell outside.
But it was still stuffy and hot.
Yan Xia tossed and turned for a long time before finally falling asleep.
When she woke up, she rushed outside without even putting on her shoes.
"It's really over." Yan Xia stared blankly at the sky and uttered those four words.
The sun seems to be getting stronger today.
I'm afraid that in less than three days, the crops will all wither and die by this afternoon.
[System! System!]
【system?】
Yan Xia called out in her mind for a long time, but the system did not respond.
Her heart was beating much faster.
He simply locked the door from the inside and slipped into the room.
【system?】
The space was quiet.
Apart from the system not responding, everything else is normal.
Yan Xia waited for a long time and called out for a long time.
Just as she was about to leave, something soft suddenly jumped into her arms.
【ah--】
What the heck?
Yan Xia was almost thrown out.
Until she heard a familiar, sweet voice.
【Host, I'm back!!】
[Little chubby guy? ? ! ! 】
Yan Xia quickly lowered her head.
It really is a chubby little boy.
Years have passed, and it still looks exactly the same as when we first saw it, unchanged.
Her belly was still round and plump, no wonder it was so soft.
【Host, I miss you so much! Do you miss me?】
The chubby boy blinked his big eyes.
I miss you so much!
Yan Xia took the opportunity to pinch its chubby cheeks; the feeling was so satisfying.
I miss you too, I'll never leave again~
The chubby boy giggled.
[By the way, little fatty, I have a question for you. I want it to rain here, and for the drought to end so the sun can return to normal. How can I do that?]
After playing around for a while, Yan Xia said seriously.
【Host, this world is about to end. I'm here to take you away.】
However, the little fat boy's words left Yan Xia completely dumbfounded.
[Extinction? Why did it perish?]
[These small worlds are unstable, so their destruction is quite normal. Look at the sun in the sky; it will only get bigger and bigger until it scorches and kills everyone in that world. Then the small world will die, and perhaps hundreds or thousands of years later, new life will be born again.]
The chubby boy spoke in a calm tone, as if he were telling a fairy tale.
Is there any way I can save them?
Yan Xia's voice was filled with sadness.
[Yes, as long as the host contributes your points and converts them into energy, it can help stabilize this small world for at least a thousand years. However, once your points are cleared, you won't have any money when you return to the modern world~]
Yan Xia was stunned.
She already has over three million points.
If converted to modern currency...
She didn't even know how many zeros there were.
If everything were wiped out all at once, her heart would bleed.
Can......
How does it compare to the rest of the world?
Yan Xia remained silent for three seconds.
He nodded.
[Reset it, I want to save them.]
To the system, this small world was nothing more than the most insignificant of all the worlds. It didn't even bother to come to this world to do missions. But to Yan Xia, this was her home, the place where she had truly lived.
Watching helplessly as familiar people around me die.
She can't do it.
Yan Xia smiled helplessly.
[Little Fatty, it seems... I'm destined to be poor in modern times.]
After leaving the space, a tear fell from Yan Xia's eye.
But when she thought of the people who were about to survive and her family and friends, a smile crept onto her face.
[Host, the energy won't be fully converted for another half hour~]
Afraid that Yan Xia would get anxious, the chubby boy kindly reminded her.
Unlike that mechanical sound.
The chubby boy's baby voice is especially pleasant to hear.
Okay, I understand.
Yan Xia changed her clothes, washed up, and had a simple breakfast.
She headed straight out of the city.
"God, do you even want us to live?!"
"Oh God, someone please save my crops! They're dying!"
"Waaaaah, Mother, I can't go on living—"
"Sigh, this world is just too hard."
"You damned heavens, are you trying to kill us? This sun is so intense, who can stand it? Forget the crops, I'm going to die from the heat!"
"......."
Yan Xia saw this scene as soon as she reached the outskirts of the city.
Some people wept loudly, some knelt on the ground to pray, and others pointed to the sky and cursed loudly.
"Yan family, we are afraid we have reached a dead end."
After standing there blankly for a quarter of an hour, Magistrate Lu walked over and said to Yan Xia.
"No, it will definitely rain, trust me." Yan Xia's voice was steady and firm.
"It won't rain anymore, it won't." She said that yesterday, and Lu Cunshan knew that Yan Xia was just comforting him.
