In the middle of the night, the chickens in her yard suddenly made a loud noise like a pot of boiling water, mixed with Zhou Fengxia's slightly panicked shouts, which seemed particularly harsh in the quiet country night.
"Sister Fengxia! What happened? Why is there such a commotion in the yard?"
Aunt Zhang from next door put on a coat and ran to the wall in slippers, leaned over the top and peeked inside, her voice full of concern.
Then, the uncle from the opposite door, the Li family, also turned on the light in the main room and called out in a gruff voice, "Are we being robbed? Do you need help?"
Zhou Fengxia was currently frantically trying to appease the frantic chickens. When she heard the noise coming from her neighbor, her heart skipped a beat, but she showed no sign of it.
She quickly thought of a solution and shouted back, "Oh, it's okay! It's not a thief, it's just a weasel that got in!"
"After making a lot of noise, we chased them away! The chickens were still there, they were just scared. I'm sorry for disturbing your sleep!"
It is common for weasels to steal chickens in the village. After hearing what Zhou Fengxia said, Aunt Zhang and Uncle Li believed it to about 70%.
"Oh, it's a weasel. Be careful, this guy is very smart!" Aunt Zhang warned.
Uncle Li also said, "It's good that they've been driven away. Tomorrow I'll send you some realgar powder. Sprinkle it around the chicken coop and it'll be effective. It's getting late, so everyone should rest!"
"Oh, okay! Thank you!"
Zhou Fengxia responded repeatedly, and only after she heard the lights in the neighbor's house go out and the footsteps fade away did she breathe a sigh of relief.
In the yard, Yu Bai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
She retracted the spirit gathering formation, and the mysterious aura that enveloped the vegetable field quietly receded like a tide.
The fruits and vegetables in the vegetable garden are still green and juicy, and the chickens are still energetic, but the aggressive sense of expansion and the almost overflowing spiritual energy have been restrained a lot and are no longer so shocking.
She knew very well that this was not the Great Qin Empire that could cover the sky with one hand, and she was not the First Emperor who ruled the world and could mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth without restraint.
If a heaven-defying thing like the Spirit Gathering Array were to be left open for a long time without any cover, the strange phenomena it would cause would be too horrifying and would inevitably lead to unnecessary trouble and prying eyes.
"Xiaobai, are you going to take this now?"
Zhou Fengxia looked at the vegetable garden that had returned to a somewhat "normal" state, feeling a little unsatisfied and a little scared.
"Yeah," Yu Bai nodded, his eyes calm, "Mom, we can't keep this formation open like this. The changes are too obvious and will easily attract attention."
Zhou Fengxia thought about it and realized that this was the truth. The neighbor’s reaction just now was the best proof.
She smacked her lips, looking at the chickens, which were still a size larger than ordinary chickens, with shiny feathers and laying a nest full of huge eggs, and the vegetable field that seemed to be moistened by fairy dew, feeling both excited and worried.
"But this... this sneaky thing isn't a long-term solution."
Yu Nian watched from the side, his brows slightly furrowed. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he said excitedly:
"Xiaobai, I've got an idea! Why don't we just contract a large piece of land and cover it with greenhouses!"
"Then, no one outside can see what's going on inside! We can also get some machines to automate watering and fertilizing, saving time and effort!"
"Besides, didn't you say this formation is related to... to that Great Qin? Can we cooperate with them and grow these top-quality food and vegetables specifically for them?"
Third brother Yu Nian's words were like a flash of lightning that cut through the night sky, instantly illuminating Yu Bai's chaotic thoughts.
Contracting land, greenhouse planting, automated management... this is indeed a feasible way!
Not only can it perfectly cover up the strange phenomenon of the Spirit Gathering Array, but it can also be mass-produced and even establish deeper cooperation with the Qin Dynasty.
The more Yu Bai thought about it, the more feasible it seemed to him. However, this was a matter of great importance, involving funds, technology, and manpower, and all of these had to be carefully considered and could not be accomplished all at once.
However, there is one thing that can be put on the agenda immediately.
"Spirit Gathering Formation...Han Yi should need it more."
Yu Bai's eyes flashed slightly. The environment in the end times is harsh and resources are scarce. The help of this spirit gathering formation to Han Yi and his team is the most urgent.
Once the thought came to his mind, Yu Bai didn't delay any longer.
She explained something to Zhou Fengxia and Yu Nian, then returned to her room. With a slight movement of her mind, she entered the space.
"Han Yi!"
Almost immediately, an invisible wave spread out from the space.
At that time, the end of the world.
The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sky an eerie blood-red. On the edge of the ruined city, a small team was camping in an orderly manner next to an abandoned gas station.
Han Yi had just directed his team members to clear a relatively safe area and was about to set up a cordon when Yu Baiqingyue's voice suddenly rang in his mind.
His expression froze, and he immediately said in a deep voice to Lei Zhennan and Lin Rui beside him, "Old Lei, Ruizi, leave the vigilance and camping to you. I'll be back soon!"
Lei Zhennan and Lin Rui exchanged glances. Although they were puzzled, they knew that Han Yi must have a reason for his actions. They nodded in unison, "Yes, Captain!"
Before he finished speaking, Han Yi's figure disappeared out of thin air.
The next moment, he appeared in front of Yu Bai.
"noob."
Han Yi looked at Yu Bai, who was dressed in plain clothes.
"But what's the urgent matter?"
Yu Bai didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "The spirit gathering array is complete."
When Han Yi heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank!
"Alright! Please teach me, Xiaobai!" Han Yi clasped his fists solemnly.
Yu Bai took out the crystal core and while demonstrating, she explained to Han Yi in detail the method of setting up the spirit gathering array, the secret of the flow of spiritual energy, and the key to the mental imprint.
