Zhao Gang, who was installing water pipes, watched as his little one happily went out and returned home dejectedly.
He knew everything that happened within his territory. Before Zhao Xiaoxiu could speak, he knew she wanted to mention that Bai Cailing and the others wanted to come to his house to recharge.
Zhao Gang nodded and said, "They can come; they can just stay at the door."
The extra electricity is used to exchange for points, every little bit counts, and the points are saved up to exchange for yogurt for the cubs.
This result was entirely within Zhao Xiaoxiu's expectations. She picked up the walkie-talkie and repeated what Zhao Gang had said on the public channel.
Just as I finished speaking, the walkie-talkie ran out of power and shut down.
Zhao Xiaoxiu took it to the socket to charge, then sat down on the small stool next to it, resting her chin on her hands, looking sullen.
Zhao Gang said with concern, "If you don't want Sheng Qingyang to come, Dad can help you refuse her."
Zhao Xiaoxiu quickly shook her head, "No, no, I'll just be depressed for a little while." She was commemorating the happy childhood she was about to lose.
Zhao Xiaoxiu knew that Sheng Qingyang only appeared gentle, but was actually a ruthless person inside.
So from the moment she opened her mouth, she already knew what kind of life she would lead in the future.
There's no such thing as a free lunch. If you want to gain power, you have to pay a price.
But her father, who was not one of the same kind of humans, did indeed continuously stimulate her potential through those simple and brutal practical training sessions.
However, without systematic learning, she always felt uncertain about the power she controlled.
Sometimes I feel capable, and other times I feel insignificant. My control over various abilities is also inconsistent.
But living in this wasteland, there was no school to teach her.
With that in mind, Sheng Qingyang, who took the initiative to extend the invitation, became the only option.
Sister Sheng is a really nice person; she's even going to knit a scarf for her. She probably won't be too harsh on the little girl... right?
Zhao Xiaoxiu took a deep breath and suddenly stood up from the bench.
She just wants to become stronger, and what's a little hardship to become stronger!
Zhao Xiaoxiu clenched her fist and cheered herself on: "You little swordsmanship? Watch me take you down!"
"Daddy, I'm going to find Peter Pan and Monkey Girl!"
A child's face can change in an instant. Zhao Gang was still struggling with how to comfort her when the little girl turned around and her face was fine again.
She waved goodbye to him and shouted, "Sister Monkey! Peter Pan!" before skipping and hopping towards the pond.
Zhao Gang chuckled helplessly, "Then I wish her all the best."
The father felt proud and gratified to have a daughter who knew how to become stronger and strive for improvement.
It took Zhao Gang a whole day to replace all the water pipes in his house with new ones and connect them to the water tower.
There's no water in the water tower right now, so it's unusable for the time being.
But if the infrastructure is arranged first, it will save a lot of trouble when it is improved later.
That evening, Zhao Gang cooked all four small fish that Dongfang Ling had given him. He made soup with two and grilled the other two. Zhao Xiaoxiu and Sister Hou ate until their mouths were glistening with oil, feeling very satisfied. They felt that they wouldn't trade this good life for being an immortal.
Meanwhile, Peter Pan in the pond could only watch the lit-up house in the distance before sinking to the bottom of the water and falling asleep.
Winter is coming, and it needs a nap. Zhao Xiaoxiu touched her chest and sensed Peter Pan's strong presence.
This sense of connection and bond is truly amazing.
Zhao Xiaoxiu looked up at her father, who was busy at the stove. They also had a bond, much deeper than that of Peter Pan.
Zhao Gang sensed something and turned around, only to see the cub grinning at him.
Her little face was red from the charcoal fire, and her eyes reflected the burning flames, twinkling like stars.
"Dad, will Peter Pan become completely different from the other floating fish?" Zhao Xiaoxiu asked curiously.
Zhao Gang shook his head. "I cannot predict the outcome of biological evolution."
Zhao Xiaoxiu: "Okay."
But she still had high hopes for Peter Pan, thinking that maybe it would evolve to the point where it could leave the pond.
Then she'll be able to ride a fish and fly in the sky!
Before going to sleep, Zhao Xiaoxiu happily imagined herself and Peter Pan soaring freely in the sky, hoping that she could actually dream about it.
......
Snowflakes drifted down from the sky.
The tranquil earth was soon covered with a thin, silvery film that reflected light.
The planting area, which was originally pitch black, has become bright, and you can see the distant mountains and forests and the stone bridge and cottages nearby.
The snow fell silently, unnoticed by those still asleep.
It wasn't until the bright morning light streamed through the windows that the people, just waking up, realized that everything outside was bathed in silvery white.
"It's snowing?!" Zhao Xiaoxiu excitedly jumped out of bed and rushed to the balcony without even putting on her clothes.
It snowed all night, covering the ground with a thin layer of white, making the sky and earth seem to merge into one, a vast expanse of white.
Two beeping sounds came from the car horn.
It was emitted by the patrol car.
Soldiers used megaphones to remind the lords to take care of protecting the crops in the fields from the cold.
As a side note, lords with modest housing conditions should promptly clear snow from their roofs and exteriors to prevent tragedies.
"Achoo!" Zhao Xiaoxiu suddenly felt a chill creep down her neck and couldn't help but sneeze.
Not daring to stay on the balcony without clothes, I quickly closed the doors and windows and ran back to the bedroom to put on my cotton-padded clothes.
After putting on her little red hat, she happily ran downstairs.
"Are you up?" Zhao Gang's concerned question came from the tool shed.
Zhao Xiaoxiu responded with an "Mmm" and eagerly pushed open the door and ran out.
Stepping into this silvery-white world, I couldn't help but exclaim "Wow!"
The area in front of the house was covered with a layer of snow, clean and flat, and had not been stepped on yet.
Zhao Xiaoxiu stepped on it, leaving a small footprint of her own, and felt inexplicably satisfied.
"Squeak!"
Monkey Sister appeared in a flash, leaving a trail of footprints on the clean snow as she ran. Zhao Xiaoxiu felt a pang of disappointment; she hadn't even had a chance to stomp a few more times.
Sister Monkey happily grabbed the baby and hoisted it onto her shoulder. "Let's go play in the snow!"
Facing the cotton-like snowflakes, a monkey and a child ran wildly through the snow, leaving footprints on all the untouched, smooth snow. Zhao Xiaoxiu's slight disappointment vanished instantly.
Throughout the entire territory, there was her loud laughter and Monkey Sister's excited shrieks.
Zhao Gang shook his head helplessly, unable to bear reminding the cub, who seemed to have forgotten her agreement with Sheng Qingyang for today.
Sheng Qingyang arrived as soon as she said she would, and even the snow couldn't stop her determined steps to take on a disciple.
At 10:00 a.m., Sheng Qingyang jumped off the patrol car, carrying a bulging backpack, and appeared at the entrance of Territory No. 13 on time.
She looked up and saw Zhao Xiaoxiu frolicking with the monkeys in the snow.
The tiny person wrapped himself up like a ball, wearing a bright red woolen hat, and nimbly had a snowball fight with the macaques.
The thin layer of snow on the ground had been worn away by the two of them, revealing the dark soil underneath.
Watching the little guy running around energetically, seemingly without a care in the world, Sheng Qingyang nodded in satisfaction.
That much energy is perfect for practicing swordsmanship!
