In the end, Zhang Tian still didn't meet Duan Xiaolin.
The supernatural team started to stir up trouble again. They even instigated the villagers to start looking for things everywhere around the village, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, and they wanted to expand the search range and venture into places where there were zombies outside.
It is said that if you find a strange-shaped stone, you will be rewarded with a house in the base.
In a short period of time, this matter caused a sensation. In order to get to the base, many people in the village began to search everywhere, and they did not stop even at night. Judging from the situation, they might have to search all night long.
As for what you are looking for, you will know what it is if you think about it.
Everyone in the village was taken advantage of.
That Liu Dongshu had no intention of taking anyone away, and he wrote a blank check just to use the villagers to help him find crystal cores.
When Duan Xiaolin came back from the field, she was picking green leaves. She threw a piece to Xiaobai and he started to nibble on it. When he heard the door opening, Xiaobai started to wag his tail excitedly.
Pei Xiqing raised her eyes and curved them: "Brother Duan, you're back."
The man closed the door, threw his stained coat into the laundry room, rolled up his shirt cuffs, revealing his lean arm muscles. His figure was straight, and his temperament was not affected at all by the farm work during the day.
"Hmm." He asked, "Are you hungry?"
"A little bit. You were slow today, and I kept waiting for you for a long time. I was worried that you would get addicted to farming in the fields." She wanted to go, but every time she went, Duan Xiaolin just let her play nearby and left everything else to him.
Duan Xiaolin curled his lips: "Miss me?"
"You don't miss me?"
Hearing this, the man who was about to go to the kitchen came over, leaned over, clasped the back of her head, and pressed a kiss hard, his eyes slightly lowered: "If you want me to save some energy tonight, eat more."
Pei Xiqing's eyelids twitched violently, and she quickly avoided his blunt gaze.
She lowered her head, and her hair fell in front of her cheeks, hiding the blush on her face.
"Let's cook." Pei Xiqing stood up, "I'll help you."
The two of them work in perfect harmony in the kitchen.
Duan Xiaolin was cutting meat and cooking, and she was washing vegetables and frying plates beside him. She also worked part-time as a taster, responsible for tasting the food before it came out of the pot.
Pei Xiqing pinched the slightly hot piece of meat and put it into her mouth, burning her tongue so much that it turned red.
"Eat it...eat it, it's ready to be served..."
It was hard to swallow. Seeing that the man was already plating the food, she leaned against the edge of the kitchen counter and said, "Brother Duan, Zhang Tian, do you still remember?"
"Remember."
Of course, his memory has always been good.
"She is the vice-captain of that team."
Duan Xiaolin took off his apron, leaned his arms against her sides, and moved a few inches closer, gazing at her leisurely. "So she's the captain, what's wrong?"
Pei Xiqing punched his chest: "You're still pretending, you must know everything, but you're still trying to trick me?"
He squeezed Pei Xiqing's hand, his large palm enveloping her entire fist. "And then, what did you talk about when you met to reminisce about the past?"
"It's been a while since we last met, so we just chatted about our recent situation." She told the man everything she had discussed with Zhang Tian and asked him, "What do you think?"
"High-level crystal cores don't appear frequently in the apocalypse. They're hard to come by. If it's really as she said, then there's something wrong with what she said."
"Yeah, I think so too."
"Don't worry, I'll go check."
Pei Xiqing grabbed his collar, accidentally messing it up, and said, "You have to be careful. Tell me what you find out. Don't hide it from me."
"Be careful?" The man keenly caught a hint of something unusual and asked, "What do you know?"
Pei Xiqing: "I don't know anything."
He chuckled, "Little liar."
"Really." Pei Xiqing said, "I really don't know what's going on."
"Leave it to me."
Duan Xiaolin carried her down.
"Eat first."
After dinner, Duan Xiaolin said, "The fields haven't been cleaned up yet. I'll be back soon."
