Chapter 120 Insurance Function
Xia Yueke was quite satisfied. After all, Qingyan was so big that if he was in a slightly smaller place, he probably wouldn't be able to fit in there!
After the deal was made, Qian Jingyao found the orc who was selling the stone house and bought it with a red beast core.
After Xia Yueke saw the transaction was completed, she asked Xiang Qianjingyao, "Why did Qingyan give me green, cyan, and yellow ones? And the one you gave to that person was orange!"
Qian Jingyao then remembered that he had never told Coco about the classification levels of beast cores!
He quickly explained:
"Beast cores are graded into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple. The further you go, the greater the energy and the higher the grade, and they are also very difficult to obtain. A larger stone house can basically hold a low-level beast core."
Xia Yueke nodded, "I see, it seems Qingyan is quite powerful! He actually has so many high-level beast cores!"
Qian Jingyao nodded slightly, then gently took Xia Yueke's hand and walked straight towards their new home.
Stepping into the stone house, he looked around, "Keke, wait a moment, I need to clean up all these places, otherwise there will be dust! Qingyan, watch over Keke, don't let her run around!"
As Qian Jingyao spoke, he put Xia Yueke into Qingyan's arms without hesitation, and then quickly rolled up his sleeves, ready to start cleaning.
Qing Yan caught Xia Yueke steadily, his face full of doting, and his arms subconsciously tightened, as if he was afraid that she would disappear if he let go.
"Yue, don't run around, I'm watching you!"
His voice was a little nervous and awkward.
Xia Yueke felt uncomfortable being strangled by Qing Yan's powerful hands. Her little face wrinkled up and she struggled hard, using both her hands and feet.
"If you want to watch, I'll be the one watching you, don't run around! What? I'm old enough, how could I possibly cause trouble?"
She complained, pouting, her cheeks puffed up, her eyes full of dissatisfaction and grievance, and glared angrily at Qian Jingyao's busy back.
Qing Yan sighed helplessly and had to slowly put Xia Yueke down.
His eyes lit up, as if he suddenly thought of something, and he hurriedly took out a stone table and three stone benches from the space.
He held up the stone table steadily with both hands, strode to the center of the yard, put it down gently, then turned back to get the stone bench and placed it neatly.
Then he took out fruits, dried meat, and a large number of exquisite wood carvings and colorful stones, and placed them one by one on the stone table.
"Yue, play!"
His scarlet eyes sparkled as he looked at Xia Yueke with a flattering smile.
Xia Yueke glanced at the objects on the stone table, curled her lips, and thought to herself: I'm already tired of playing with these things, and I really can't arouse the slightest interest in them.
She smacked her lips, and her stomach growled at the right moment. Well, she decided to eat something first. After all, she didn't know how much time Qian Jingyao would take to prepare dinner.
Her little hand casually reached out to the pile of fruits and picked out a bright red fruit.
The fruit was round and plump. Xia Yueke brought the fruit close to her nose and sniffed it gently. A sweet fruity fragrance instantly entered her nostrils.
Just as she was about to take a bite, she caught a glimpse of crystal dewdrops hanging on the fruit, rolling on the skin of the fruit like tiny crystals.
Xia Yueke couldn't help but wonder, this fruit has been stored in Qingyan's space for many days, how could it still be so fresh?
Her lively eyes blinked, and a thought suddenly flashed through her mind: Could it be that Qingyan's space has a preservation function? This thought made her eyes suddenly brighten, like stars twinkling in the night sky.
She jumped up excitedly, ran to Qingyan's side, and grabbed the corner of Qingyan's clothes with her chubby little hands and shook it hard.
"Qingyan, Qingyan, quickly take out the dried meat and fruits that Qian Jingyao made earlier and let us see them!"
Her voice trembled slightly with excitement, her face flushed red, and her eyes were full of eagerness and anticipation.
Qing Yan was confused by her sudden action and looked at her in confusion, but still obediently did as she asked.
He just closed his eyes and concentrated, and after a moment, the dried meat and fruits in the space appeared on the stone table one by one.
Xia Yueke stared at the food with her eyes wide open, as if she had discovered a treasure.
Her little hands couldn't wait to touch the fresh jerky, gently pressing it, feeling the elasticity and texture of the meat, and she kept muttering:
"Wow, Qingyan, your space is so useful! It even has a fresh-keeping function!"
She looked like she had won a huge lottery, or like she had taken stimulants. She was completely immersed in this surprising discovery, completely ignoring Qing Yan's face full of confusion and helplessness.
Qian Jingyao saw the commotion here and walked over. Xia Yueke immediately told him excitedly that the Qingyan Space also had a preservation function.
Qian Jingyao smiled when he heard this, "That's great! It looks like we'll have a place to store our food before the cold season, and we don't have to worry about it going bad!"
There was unconcealable joy and relief in his voice.
Xia Yueke nodded excitedly, her mind racing with the descriptions of the cold season she'd heard before. They said it lasted four months here, blanketed in ice and snow, leaving everything bleak and desolate. Without this preservation function, food would be scarce and spoil, leaving her helplessly relegated to munching on rock-hard fruit and mold-ridden, rancid meat. Just thinking about that image made Xia Yueke's stomach churn, and she shivered slightly, as if the unpleasant odor were already lingering in her nostrils.
Qian Jingyao cleaned up the place very quickly, and then took out everything in the Qingyan space, including the stone cabinet and animal skins, and spread them on the bed one by one.
This stone bed is huge, enough for three or four people to sleep on it, even if Qian Jingyao and Qing Yan can turn into beasts now!
Qian Jingyao looked at the stone bed and smiled happily, because he finally didn't have to be squeezed by Qing Yan anymore!
The stone bed he had prepared before was too small. Even if Qingyan turned into a human form, the three of them would still be squeezed in to sleep.
After Qian Jingyao finished cleaning up everything, he went straight to the kitchen.
In the kitchen, he skillfully handled various kitchen utensils, and soon, a simple but fragrant lunch was presented on the table.
The three of them sat around and hurriedly finished their meal. Qian Jingyao then stood up and said with a firm look in his eyes:
"I'm going to the Cub Enlightenment School this afternoon. I need to inform the orcs there how to enroll."
When Xia Yuke heard this, her eyes lit up and she immediately wanted to follow. She didn't want to miss anything related to her school.
Qing Yan would naturally not separate from Xia Yuke, so in the end the three of them still set off together.
Fortunately, the stone house they bought was very close to the cub enlightenment school.
But after walking for more than ten minutes, they arrived at the destination.
Xia Yueke looked at the school not far away with a face full of shock. The school's wall was made of huge logs arranged closely together, and some simple animal patterns were carved on the logs. On top of the wall, there were colorful feathers inserted on the top, swaying gently in the breeze.
