Chapter 112 A substantial plan
Irene felt that even among Yu Sheng's many weird ideas, this new idea he proposed was too weird.
But on the other hand, every idea this guy came up with was indeed evil enough to make people pay attention to it. After the initial surprise and amazement, the little puppet found that he could not help but develop a strong interest in this "creative idea". Although it sounded so outrageous, so weird, and so inconsistent with the "basic rules of puppet making" and "alchemical theory", but...
Really don't want to try it? It's not a bad thing to try it...
"Look, you also think this is a good idea," Yu Sheng guessed what Irene was thinking when he saw the change in her expression. He immediately became proud, "And not only the skeleton can be replaced with rebar, I can try to use cement to cast a body of parts for you. That stuff is much easier to mix into blood than lotus roots..."
Irene's expression froze for a moment, and after hesitating for a moment, she whispered, "Isn't this a bit too outrageous?"
Yu Sheng said seriously: "Clay is soil, concrete is also soil, that's what I think."
Irene: “…Yes, really?”
"I should have gone to the building materials market when I went out to buy materials," Yu Sheng said with some regret, "and brought back some cement and some steel bars... Oh, and some professional equipment, such as welding machines and angle grinders. I don't know if they are expensive."
No matter how Irene listened, she felt that these were not terms that should appear in alchemy.
However, Yu Sheng did not dwell on this topic for too long. He quickly waved his hand and said, "It's okay. There's no rush anyway. You should get familiar with this extra body first. If there are any suggestions for improvement, you can sort them out. Next time when I make a new body for you, I will try to make a better one."
He seemed very interested, as if this matter brought him great pleasure.
Then he came to the edge of the platform, called Hu Li over, and pointed to an open space next to the simple stone house that was as big as a matchbox.
"Just keep the chicks here. I'll build a simple chicken coop first. When they grow up and the vegetation in the valley has grown, I'll let them out."
As he spoke, the surface of the open space began to tremble slightly, and then stones grew from the ground, quickly forming a circle of fences with water troughs and food troughs inside. It was simple, but sufficient.
Hu Li blinked her eyes, rummaged through her tail, and put a group of chicks into the fence. She then added food to the trough and filled the water trough with water - there was really everything in her tail.
While doing all this, the fox girl's face was full of seriousness, happiness, and even a little bit of pampering.
That is the pampering of the future braised chicken legs, grilled chicken wings, mouth-watering chicken, smoked chicken, roast chicken, and stewed native chicken.
"I'll bring a canal here from nearby later," Yu Sheng said as he looked at Hu Li, who was taking good care of the chicks, and said his next plan, "There's a water source over there in the woods, not too far from here. Next time I come, I can bring some tools and materials with me to improve this camp. This valley will be the base of our hotel in the future..."
"It's nice to have a base, but the trouble is that you're the only one who can open the door every time," Irene muttered at the side. "From now on, when Hu Li comes to feed the chickens, you'll have to open the door for him. Isn't that a bit inconvenient?"
Yu Sheng's brows furrowed slightly.
This is indeed what he couldn't help thinking about recently.
It is true that the ability to "open the door" is very convenient, but if he has a team and a "team base" like this valley, then a door that only he can open becomes a limitation. Irene and Hu Li cannot enter and exit the valley on their own, so strictly speaking, this cannot be considered the base for all members of the "hostel".
"I've been thinking about this too," Yu Sheng said as he pondered, "It would be great if we could set up a permanent passage in this valley - the kind you can use without me having to maintain it."
"Is this possible?" Irene blinked. "It doesn't sound like there's any idea."
"First of all, this is a foreign land, and all foreign lands have ways to enter. It's just that the original entrance and exit channels of this valley were destroyed and overwritten by me," Yu Sheng analyzed seriously, "So the key lies in how to re-establish this 'public channel'. Secondly, when it comes to ideas... Actually, I do have some ideas at all."
This time, not only Irene, but even Hu Li, who was counting chicks carefully next to him, pricked up his ears and cast a curious look at Yu Sheng.
"Do you have a solution, benefactor?"
"There is one thing you should remember - you can see and open the door of No. 66 Wutong Road," Yu Sheng reminded them. "Strictly speaking, the door of No. 66 Wutong Road is actually a similar 'entrance and exit' - leading to a foreign land, which others cannot see or touch, but I have the authority to 'open the door', and after you shared my blood, you also gained the ability to open that door."
"Yes, yes!" After being reminded by Yu Sheng, Irene reacted immediately, but then frowned, "But the door of No. 66 Wutong Road existed originally, it had to be 'standing' there first, and Hu Li and I could open it, but now there is no similar 'door' in this valley - every time you come in, the passage is temporarily built out of thin air by you, and it will disappear as soon as you let go."
"What if we use some method to fix this door? It's equivalent to hand-building a 'door' similar to the gate of No. 66 Wutong Road," Yu Sheng said thoughtfully, "Using the alchemy skills you taught me to give power to other objects, is it theoretically feasible?"
Irene listened in a daze, and it took her a long time to react: "Is this part of the alchemy I taught you?"
"Ahem, I have used my imagination to some extent," Yu Sheng coughed twice, "I think it is feasible - why not give it a try later? It doesn't cost anything to try anyway."
When Irene heard this, she thought that it was indeed another of Yu Sheng's classic "give it a try". It seemed that all of his evil ideas would eventually lead to this step.
This may be called "one try to be the best".
"I'll be busy for a while now," Yu Sheng made the decision happily, and added a few more things to his next action plan, "Build a new reinforced concrete body for Irene, improve the camp in this valley, and next time I come here, officially open and plant the vegetable garden, divert a canal, and build a stable portal... Thinking about this, I feel that the next few days will be quite busy."
As he spoke, he came to the end of the platform and looked out in a trance at the vast open valley in the distance.
The valley that was once devoured by the entity-hunger is now recovering - under the catalysis of life intention, its recovery speed is far faster than natural conditions.
The gullies that were all over the land have been slowly filling up, the collapsed and cracked structures on the distant mountains can now be seen healing visibly with the naked eye, and the little bit of green that first emerged from the ground around the ruins that day... has unknowingly spread far away.
A touch of light green extends along the undulating terrain at the bottom of the valley. There are tender shrubs among the newly born grass buds. Those are the vitality that once existed in this valley. They once disappeared in the darkness deep in the earth, but now they have re-emerged from the surface and embraced the skylight.

An inexplicable sense of steadiness came over him. Looking at the scenery, Yu Sheng couldn't help but curl his lips slightly: "What a great place... It's a really great place."
Footsteps came from behind, and Hu Li came over with two chicks in his hands. He looked at Yu Sheng hesitantly and said, "My benefactor, I want to take these two home to raise. Is that okay?"
Yu Sheng turned around and saw the fox girl looking at him eagerly. Her golden-red eyes were full of anticipation. The two chicks in her hands made soft chirping sounds. She looked completely carefree.
Yu Sheng was a little curious: "These two...?"
"Boiled and salt-baked." Hu Li said immediately.
Yu Sheng: “…”
These two chicks were specially named by the fox girl.
So she wants to keep it as a pet!
The fox in his home not only raised the chickens but also named his favorite chicks Baiqie and Yanbao respectively - even Yu Sheng felt that this was very weird, but under the innocent and expectant gaze of the fox girl, he finally suppressed the complaints that were about to burst out and just nodded with a straight face: "Okay, I'll go back and find you a cardboard box, and you can keep it on the balcony."
Hu Li immediately became happy: "Thank you, benefactor!"
At this moment, Yu Sheng suddenly felt a few vibrations in his pocket, followed by a series of ringing sounds.
He took out his cell phone and saw Li Lin's name appearing on the screen.
However, before the call was connected, Yu Sheng was stunned.
...There is a signal?! In this valley, there is a signal for mobile phones?! Yu Sheng clearly remembered that when this foreign land was still the "Night Valley", there was no signal here. At that time, Little Red Riding Hood and Li Lin and the others were trapped here and had no way to contact the outside world.
But now there is a signal here? Is this also a change that occurred after the "feast"? Many thoughts flashed through his mind quickly. Yu Sheng hesitated for two or three seconds before picking up the phone and answering: "Hello?"
