The scene before their eyes truly stunned the family members.
They simply couldn't believe that such a masterpiece of architecture existed.
The small mound was cut in half, just like a huge cake being sliced in two with a knife.
The core area in the middle is the three-story building where Lu Yuan and the others were before.
"Wow, I never would have guessed! There's our house in there. I thought it was all buried inside."
"Yes, this house is so sturdy. It has survived so many disasters over the years and is still intact."
"I can hardly believe it. The house doesn't look like it's damaged much on the surface, and there are many signs of human damage."
"Okay, I take back what I said earlier. This place should indeed be a good place to stay, but you still need to be careful about food and all sorts of other things."
When the family members saw the old house, a glimmer of light immediately appeared in their eyes.
Lu Yuan could sense the excitement, joy, and surprise in their hearts at that moment.
Then, with great excitement, everyone got off the car and headed straight for the old house they hadn't seen in a long time.
When they stood in front of this old house, everyone stopped in front of the gate.
Although there is no longer a courtyard, there is only this lonely house, which is embedded in the soil.
However, this does not diminish everyone's longing for the old house.
The old man looked around, walked to the right side of the house, squatted down gently, and dug a handful of soil from the ground.
"This place used to be a fishpond, right? I remember I used to like to come here to fish during the first and second years after the apocalypse!"
After hearing this, Dad smiled and said, "Yes, back then, Dahuang was always stealing fish from the pond!"
Upon hearing his father mention Da Huang, Lu quickly summoned Da Huang from the dimensional space.
The moment Dahuang appeared, it excitedly spun around in place, then frantically ran back and forth in front of the three-story building, as if it had suddenly discovered the place where it used to play, a place filled with longing.
"Let's go inside and take a look. Although the house is a mess, the overall structure is still intact. With a little repair, it should be fine!"
Then, Lu Yuan led his family toward the house.
They gently pushed open the door, and a thick cloud of smoke and blood rushed out.
The family members couldn't help but cover their mouths and noses, and only went inside after the smell of the thick smoke dissipated.
Since there is no electricity here, the only way to see the layout of the room is to use a flashlight.
The family members, one by one, looked around the room with flashlights. The stairs were still as sturdy as ever. The old man slowly climbed the stairs to the second floor, looked around, and found his place.
"Haha, I used to like doing some handicrafts here. I even made crossbows here when those rioters were looting!"
Of course, everything in the room had been taken away, and now the house was practically bare.
After a quick look, they found nothing. The family members also went to their respective rooms to check, only to find that the house was indeed as Lu Yuan had described, in a rather dire state.
"Alright, it seems this place is going to be a big project. But Lu Yuan, what are your plans for the future? It'll take a lot of effort to repair this house!"
Lu Yuan glanced at his father and smiled slightly: "It's alright. I don't have any work right now anyway, so I might as well take this time to properly renovate the house. I reckon we should be able to move in before the superstorm hits!"
Mr. Lu simply took a hammer and tapped the wall nearby. He found that there were no hollow holes. It was clear that the materials used when the house was built were very solid, which played a crucial role in protecting the stable structure of the house now.
"There's no electricity, no water, and no food supply here. Plus, we'll need to dig a tunnel to the underground fortress. I don't know if we can finish it in ten days!"
"There's no need to worry about that. I have a dimensional space that hasn't completely disappeared yet, so I should be able to dig the tunnel. It should be completed in ten days!"
"Hmm, it looks like this house was in a fire before. The paint on the exterior walls basically needs to be properly repaired and repainted!"
Next, Mr. Lu went to check on each room: "Not only that, but all the pipes and wiring inside have been completely cleaned up. It will take a lot of effort to redo them. Fortunately, I'm not too busy with work outside right now, so I'll come with you to help me fix it!"
After all, they are family. Although they expressed various objections, once Lu Yuan and the others made their decision, they would still resolutely help them.
"Haha, Dad, you might have to work a bit harder then!"
"Hey kid, stop being so polite with me. I'll take a look at what we need in a bit. Oh, by the way, I just checked the outside structure and it's okay, but if there's a superstorm, all this soil will probably be washed away. We have to get this sorted out and make the soil here more compact!"
