Chapter 167: Discovery of Oil
Bai Zhaoyan was startled.
Looking at the bony hand exerting force, with veins exposed on the back of the hand, Lang Ye's head appeared in front of her.
The two looked at each other, and Lang Ye smiled innocently.
"..." Bai Zhaoyan was speechless, but still reached out and pulled the person in from the window.
It's your own home, but you don't use the stairs and instead climb through the window. What's the point of doing that?
I'm not afraid of falling from the second floor.
"Zhao Zhao." Lang Ye wanted to hug her as soon as he entered the room, burying his head in Bai Zhaoyan's neck and rubbing it. "Have you missed me these days?"
"I thought about it." Bai Zhaoyan hugged his waist back, her nose filled with the scent of shower gel. Lang Ye's hair was slightly wet and steamy, probably because he had just taken a shower.
"Why don't you take the stairs?"
Lang Ye held Bai Zhaoyan and sat down beside the couch, letting her sit on his lap. He rested his chin on his wife's shoulder and said in a low voice, "I saw Lin Che and Tong Xu talking on the first floor stairs. In order not to disturb them, I climbed up through the window."
"Zhao Zhao happened to be waiting for me at the window. This is fate."
Bai Zhaoyan just found it funny and stretched out her index finger to scratch his chin, "Yes, yes, it's fate."
Lang Ye hugged her tighter and kept talking about how much he missed her.
She listened quietly, nodding and asking a question from time to time.
"Zhao Zhao, look at my hand." Lang Ye raised his right palm in front of Bai Zhaoyan.
Due to the hard work during this period, he had a circle of thin calluses on the palms of his hands, and a few small scars on the backs of his hands.
Bai Zhaoyan held his hand and blew gently twice.
Lang Ye felt itchy and couldn't help but wanted to withdraw his hand, but she held him down, "Don't move, I'll heal you."
"It's okay." Lang Ye grabbed her hand with his backhand. "It's just a small injury. It doesn't hurt. I don't feel anything at all."
"I just want you to feel sorry for me."
"My heart aches." Bai Zhaoyan answered firmly, "Since your purpose is to make me feel sad, then why don't you want to cure you when I say I can use my supernatural powers?"
"What a waste. I still have half a month to work. I can come back after I finish it." Otherwise, even if I get cured tonight, I will accidentally bump into something tomorrow.
"I'll go out with you tomorrow." Bai Zhaoyan thought for a moment, "Let's take Lin Che with us. His abilities have recovered, so there's no point in him being lazy all the time."
Lang Ye rolled his eyes and pursed his lips, saying, "It seems that there will be no need for Lin Che next time. Why not let him rest in the tribe?"
I finally have the chance to spend time with Zhao Zhao, why should I bring my love rival along?
When he arrived at the resting place, he saw Ye Zheng and Cen Ran, two people vying for his favor, so he didn't want to bring another one with him.
"Okay, you decide." After all, Lang Ye was more familiar with the road construction situation, but he didn't know what the current marching road looked like.
She was very curious and told Lang Ye that she should go to bed early to recharge her energy.
Lang Ye didn't say he wanted to go back to his room to sleep. Instead, he occupied half of the bed, held Bai Zhaoyan in his arms, and the couple slept together.
The next morning, Bai Zhaoyan bought a bicycle from the mall and was excited to ride it.
Lin Che felt that the thing called a bicycle was not very good. It was not as fast as his own beast form, and the wheels were very thin. It seemed that it could not withstand running back and forth on the gravel.
But seeing that Zhao Zhao was happy, he didn't say anything to ruin the atmosphere.
If the tire really gets flat along the way, he's still there.
Zhao Zhao hasn't ridden his beast form in a long time and misses it.
After breakfast, Bai Zhaoyan changed into a set of clothes suitable for travel, tied her hair into a bun, and rode her bike while humming a song as she rushed towards the marching road.
At the beginning, I thought it was very interesting, as if I had returned from the ancient animal world to the modern countryside. I was in the mood to let Lang Ye sit in the back seat and said I would give him a ride.
Lang Ye wanted to refuse, but seeing the bright smile on Zhao Zhao's face, the words he wanted to say got stuck in his throat. He followed her example and sat on the back seat with his legs apart. "Zhao Zhao, I'm very heavy. If you can't do it, just put me down."
"Yeah, yeah." Bai Zhaoyan responded vaguely, but actually didn't take it to heart at all.
Are you kidding? How could there be anything she can't do?
It has to work today, whether it works or not.
The marching road was covered with a layer of gravel, making riding a bike a bit difficult, and it became even more obvious after Lang Ye sat on it.
Bai Zhaoyan gritted his teeth, stood up from his seat tremblingly and kicked.
There is no such thing as giving up in her dictionary.
Lang Ye stood on tiptoe, rested his hands on the edge of the chair, and squinted his eyes to watch the rising sun in the sky.
At this rate, when will they reach the other end of the marching road?
Before he could even finish his breath, he heard a loud "bang".
The bicycle tire burst.
Bai Zhaoyan's body tilted and she fell to the side. Lang Ye was quick to catch her and hold her in his arms.
The bicycle had no support and fell to the ground with a bang.
Bai Zhaoyan looked at the bicycle lying on the ground. The rear wheel was still slowly turning and he wailed. "My bike..."
It's still new.
Lang Ye looked at her palms, which were red from gripping the handle so hard, and soothed her, "It's okay, it's okay. Just put it aside for now. We'll take it with us when we go back and fix it when we get home."
"There are no wild animals in this area anymore. It's very safe."
Bai Zhaoyan curled her lips and agreed helplessly.
Lang Ye transformed into a beast and Bai Zhaoyan rode on it.
He ran very fast on the stone road as if it were flat ground.
When they arrived at their destination in the afternoon, Ye Zheng and others were resting after lunch. Cen Ran didn't expect Bai Zhaoyan to come, so he returned to the fox clan first and planned to come back tomorrow.
"Zhao Yan."
Ye Zheng smelled a familiar scent and immediately opened his eyes. The orcs dozing in the shade around him also called out, "Chief."
Bai Zhaoyan got off Lang Ye's back and signaled them to continue resting.
Ye Zheng placed a soft pillow behind a large rock and motioned her to sit down. He then poured her some water soaked in mint leaves and said, "Why are you here? We'll come back to see you."
Bai Zhaoyan looked at Ye Zheng, who was repairing a road in the wilderness. His usually fair skin had been tanned considerably. "I saw some kind of fuel on Lang Ye's clothes, so I wanted to come and see. We can mine it and use it for lighting. The soot from the burning coal can also be used to make ink."
Ye Zheng thought about it and nodded, "Okay, have you had lunch? I'll make some for you."
"No." Lang Ye answered first, gulping down half a pot of tea in one breath, "We're saving our stomachs for you to cook for us."
Ye Zheng quickly raised the corner of his mouth and then lowered it, "I only do Zhao Yan's, you can do yours yourself."
Lang Ye was not convinced, "Why, why, you never ate when I cooked, right?"
He looked as if he wanted to dissect Ye Zheng alive.
Bai Zhaoyan turned around, put her index finger between her lips, and signaled him to be quiet, "Keep your voice down and let the tribe rest first."
This is the hottest time of the day, so let them take a nap first and then work in the afternoon.
