"Hey, Chu Ying, are you really back? That's great, your uncle missed you so much!" Han Qing's voice came from the microphone. Han Qing's voice was slightly low, with a little magnetism in it, which was very pleasant to hear.
When Chu Ying heard this voice, she was stunned. She thought of her uncle in that world again. The overlap of the two figures made Chu Ying feel a little sad.
She tried her best to conceal her feelings and said a few simple words to her uncle, mainly to let him know that she was safe. She would tell him the details after they met.
After hanging up the phone, Chu Ying went back to her room on the pretext of a headache. Everyone in her family knew that it was freezing cold outside, and they thought Chu Ying had a cold, so they made her some brown sugar ginger water.
Kang Kang felt very guilty. If he hadn't been showing off his hovercraft all the time, Chu Ying wouldn't have wanted to go out with him.
Only Chu Ying herself knew what she was thinking. Since everyone thought she was sick, she secretly hid in her room to calm down.
Dinner had just been prepared when guests came to our house.
This time the people who came were not so friendly.
The village where Su Nian and his family live covers a large area, but there are not many residents, only about a hundred households in total.
When Meili came to see the doctor in the morning, Su Nian casually mentioned that his family was about to leave.
Merry told the news to his uncle Mayo, the village chief.
Mayo was a greedy man. He had long discovered that Su Nian's house was very different from theirs and had better thermal insulation performance than theirs.
"I heard that you are about to leave. Since you are leaving anyway, leave your house to me! I am willing to exchange it for ten seal skins!" Mayo had no idea what this family did for a living, and he still acted like a wealthy person.
Kang Kang had said long ago that the bricks used to build their cottage were very special and were high-tech products, and that when they returned, all the bricks of the house would be removed and transported away. "No replacement!" Kang Kang immediately rejected Mayo's request.
"Why? Since you are leaving anyway, there is no use for you to keep this house. Besides, you have lived in our land for such a long time, you should leave this house to us as compensation!" Mayo put on a arrogant face.
"We live here with the approval of the higher-ups, and we don't hunt, nor do we occupy your resources, so there's no question of paying you," Chu Beichen spoke as the head of the family.
Mayo was very angry. He stood up, said a few harsh words and left.
Chu Ying just found it incredible, "Why are they so unreasonable?"
"They are just used to being greedy," Chu Beichen was helpless about these difficult locals.
He went to the warehouse, selected two weapons, gave one to Kang Kang, and kept one for himself. "Kang Kang, from now on, we father and son will take turns on duty. I doubt Mayo will let us go easily!"
Chu Beichen had a more thorough understanding of human nature. Anyway, they wouldn't be staying here for long, so they just had to be on high alert and spend these three days safely.
Facts proved that Chu Beichen was right. That night, a group of people with their faces covered with fur appeared near their home. They were holding harpoons and homemade guns made by the locals.
During the summer vacation, the house was equipped with infrared night vision devices, which can clearly see hot objects in dark environments.
Chu Beichen and Kang Kang did not rest. Seeing the image displayed on the night vision goggles, they confirmed that there were twelve people attacking their home.
