After the lights were turned off, the distant firelight disappeared in no time. Everyone stopped paying attention and went to sleep.
The next day, the group began to reinforce the house.
A layer of waterproof tarpaulin was laid directly on the roof. Then, the entire roof was reinforced with another layer of wooden planks.
The yard was also enclosed by an iron fence. It was reinforced.
It took three days of continuous work to finish.
[Hey kid, go over to that girl.]
[do what.]
[If I tell you to leave, then leave.]
[……]
Qi walked slowly over.
No, I can't sense her space. Are we going to merge together...?
Kid, figure out a way to create some negative distance between you and her. I'll try to see if I can directly enter her online space.
[What!……]
[Do it the way I suggested. I'll try to get into her profile.]
[no.]
[Do you want to die?]
The man's voice grew increasingly cold.
[I...can't right now.]
[I'll give you a maximum of three days. Otherwise, you'd better find a place to bury yourself!]
[That won't do either. You can kill me if you want... but you shouldn't kill your master.]
[What you said makes sense. Then remember to tell that girl to be careful.]
[you!]
[If I don't want that girl to suffer any accident, like losing an arm or a leg, I'd better fulfill my request quickly.]
[...She and I are not...husband and wife, is that right?]
[Whether you use force or gentleness is up to you. I just want results.]
[Still not working. Not for now. Let's wait a while longer.]
[...You're not thinking dirty thoughts, are you?]
[?]
[I'm just letting you kiss, what are you being so dramatic about?]
[...!]
[Remember what I asked.]
[roll.]
...
Three days...
Qi Xie sat by the fire, warming himself. He looked at the woman in front of him, who was gossiping with Bai Lian with a cheerful smile, and looked conflicted.
At dinner, Fengran called out Jixiang, who hadn't shown up for a long time.
Then, in front of several people, he confessed that he had a spatial ability.
"This is the Lord of Space, Jixiang. I haven't explained it in detail before, but I think everyone knows my abilities. I've been thinking about it these past few days, so I thought I might as well say it openly."
From now on, you all know my secret. To better keep each other's secrets, let's all reveal our secrets a little.
Feng Ran looked at the group while munching on a roasted corn cob.
“I’m just a teacher. An ordinary person,” Qi Xie said.
[Should I tell someone about you?]
[Need not.]
At this moment, Qi Xie asked Li Luo for his opinion.
He promptly made up a lie, saying, "I'm just a policeman. An ordinary person."
...tsk...
A bunch of useless men.
"Alright. No matter what, you can't tell anyone about this secret. Otherwise, I'll have Jixiang kill you all. You hear me?"
Jixiang was diligently munching on corn. Bai Lian had handed it to him. And this guy had such handsome eating manners, but he ate so fast!
Bai Lian roasted one, and Ji Xiang ate one. They worked together perfectly.
Upon hearing Feng Ran mention him, Ji Xiang nodded to the others, indicating that he was certain he would kill them.
In the dim light, someone couldn't help but smile slightly, but it was fleeting.
No one noticed.
Starting the next day, the two boys began chopping firewood. They used a huge amount of firewood every day. The tables, chairs, and benches in the space were all chopped into individual pieces.
The sun has been shining brightly for the past two days. Fengran tied a few ropes to the trees and started washing sheets, blankets, and clothes.
Fortunately, solar power could be used. She immediately retrieved a washing machine from her spatial storage.
After washing, hang it outside to dry.
After I finished, I went back to the kitchen and was shivering from the cold.
While warming themselves by the fire, Bai Lian had already started cooking.
"Rice today?"
"right."
"Shall we steam some glutinous rice and mixed grains? We'll make rice balls today. There are also some fried sausages in the space."
Pork tenderloin, with some lettuce.
"I'm fine with anything."
Feng Ran then looked at the other two men who were roasting corn.
"Okay." Jixiang nodded.
"Can."
Asking is pointless. It's so boring; I wish there was a girl around.
After Bai Lian put the rice in the steamer, Feng Ran took out some lettuce for them to wash.
I then neatly arranged all the side dishes I needed on a plate.
It's cold now. We can just pan-fry it again when we're ready to eat.
Glutinous rice with mixed grains, pork tenderloin, sausage, lettuce, and chili sauce. It's incredibly delicious.
The wind dyed directly showed off two.
...
Wang family.
"You mean, her house burned down?"
"Yes. Not a single person." This morning, the family had actually found a small school of fish in the river near the cave, and they'd managed to catch a few. They wanted to send a couple to Fengran to try. But when they got there, there was nothing left.
"I guess they've left," Wang San San said.
"What will we do then!" Wang Lili looked at the group, somewhat lost in thought. She left. Her family would starve to death sooner or later!
"Don't worry," the second son-in-law comforted his wife.
"Yes. We have food reserves, water, and we've even found fish! We won't starve," the eldest son-in-law said, seemingly comforting himself as well.
“I…I saw a light on the mountain last night. Do you think it’s possible that other people are living on the mountain like us?”
Wang Xiaosi said. He came out for some fresh air last night because he felt stuffy in the cave, and that's when he saw the light.
