Life in the village is simple and plain.
There is no wind or waves.
In a blink of an eye, Pei Xiqing had lived here for half a month.
The injury he received in the ghost market had already made him as weak as he could be. Now he could carry Xiaobai from the village entrance to the door of his home several times without taking a breath.
After Xiaobai ate those parasites, his appetite and physical strength increased dramatically, and his daily exercise volume was three or four times more than when he was at the base.
If it hadn't been so obedient, she wouldn't even be able to hold on to Xiaobai's growing body with just her own strength.
She has a hard time just walking the dog every day.
When the villagers saw her, they all knew that her family had a dog that was bigger than a human.
It has a big appetite and a large body. It can eat people and guard against thieves. It is also very smart. It only listens to Pei Xiqing and Duan Xiaolin. When other people come, no one can call them away.
Pei Xiqing was walking back with Xiaobai when he bumped into a few men who had just finished working in the fields. They looked at Xiaobai, came over, and patted his head. "Wow, he's grown a lot, hasn't he? He looks even bigger than when I saw him a few days ago!"
"Sister Pei, your dog is such a big eater. It hasn't been long now, but it's already grown a lot bigger. If it keeps eating like this, it will be as big as the wild boar we ate last time."
Pei Xiqing smiled and said, "It's okay. It needs exercise every day. I'll walk it a few times, and Brother Duan will take care of the rest of the exercise. He will train it carefully so that it won't destroy the house or run around outside and get fat like a pig."
"Hahahaha, sister, what breed is your dog?"
"Husky," she said. "Very pure."
"Why do I look a bit different? Look at these eyes, one is red and the other is green..."
Pei Xiqing explained: "It has indeed grown a little crooked during this period, but it's not a big problem. It's probably due to the influence of the environment."
"That's fine, just don't get sick. If you get sick, there is no veterinarian in our village who can treat you, and you will suffer." There is only one doctor who can treat people, and there is really no one in the whole village who can treat animals.
"Come here! Xiaobai! I'll give you a piece of meat!"
Someone threw a piece of meat at it.
Xiaobai squatted beside Pei Xiqing, sticking out his tongue, and waited for Pei Xiqing to speak before he came over, sniffed it, and started eating.
"Where's Brother Duan? Didn't he come with you to walk the dog?"
"It's going to rain in a few days, and he's busy harvesting vegetables in the fields."
"Indeed, the rain is expected to be quite heavy. It looks like it will continue for several days. Please don't ruin our crops."
Pei Xiqing said, "The terrain here is relatively low, so once it rains, it's prone to flooding. We need to find a way to build a channel to drain the water."
"Hey, we know about this. If it rains again this time, everyone will suffer, but we can get through it if we hold on. Now it has been dragging on, and I don't think it will be resolved in the short term."
"Why? This is where you'll be staying for a long time. Repairing these things will do you no harm at all. It will also guarantee your safety for at least the next twenty or thirty days."
"Damn!" someone sighed. "Isn't it that someone from outside is coming back? It's Old Liu's son. I heard he's doing pretty well out there, even an officer at a powerful base. This time he's back, and he said he'd take us away to a better place. So, no one has the mood to bother with these things anymore. They all want to follow Old Liu's son and live a good life."
Pei Xiqing had heard about this matter from Ma Mengxiang before.
At that time she said she would be back soon, and we waited for two weeks without any problems.
I didn't expect to hear them talking about this again.
She asked, "When exactly will you be back?"
"Just these past two days, he should have been back a long time ago, but he was delayed by something. Who knows? I don't care about the base or the official position. Living outside can be dangerous. It's been so long since we've had contact with the outside world. If we go out again, there will definitely be a lot of things that are out of date."
They didn't even know how to kill zombies. They had only seen zombies once, let alone how to save their lives if they really encountered zombies.
There are also all sorts of things going on in the base. If they live there, they won't be able to acclimate themselves to the local climate and will definitely get sick.
But even though I thought so, I couldn't resist the demands of the women and elders in my family.
After all, after living in a remote area for a long time, who wouldn’t want to visit a big city?
Especially after hearing that the base had developed by leaps and bounds in just a few short years, and that there were all kinds of powerful psychics, everyone wanted to see them.
"Do you know which base the other party is from?"
"This... we don't know, and we're not quite sure. You should go ask Old Liu. His son contacted him after he disappeared."
"Hey, I understand." Pei Xiqing touched Xiaobai, watched their backs as they left, turned around and went to Old Liu's house in the village holding the rope.
