Looking back to when they first met, it was shortly after Xi Xi entered the survival game.
At that time, she exchanged a bottle of chilled plum juice for a car window curtain charm with Liu Yunyan, as if it all happened yesterday, vivid in her mind.
It was that transaction that forged an unbreakable bond between the two. From then on, they kept in touch and gradually became friends.
Liu Yunyan has always been very loyal. Whenever someone mocks or speaks ill of Xi Xi in the public chat, she always stands up for Xi Xi, protecting her own and valuing loyalty.
It wasn't until after the newbie protection period ended that Xi Xi contacted her mother, and Liu Yunyan also contacted her older sister. She told Xi Xi that she was busy with family matters during this period, and the two gradually lost contact.
Yes, Liu Yunyan had mentioned her older sister to Xi Xi, but Xi Xi didn't know Liu's sister's specific name and naturally didn't connect it to Liu Enxi. Little did she know that the world was so small!
Xi Xi (Ping): "Scammed by Cui Quan?" And scammed out of all his money?
Chu Zhiqin, who was driving with ease in the driver's seat, couldn't sit still any longer. She pricked up her ears and leaned closer to Xi Xi, who was sitting next to her.
Women of this age don't have many hobbies, except for listening to gossip.
Liu Yunyan (Xiao Ji): "That's not important! It's in the past, I'll talk to you about it when I have time! What did you mean when you said 'only three days left'?"
There are priorities, and Liu Yunyan clearly understood this better than her sister. She cut straight to the point, interrupting Xi Xi and her mother's gossip, and urgently pressed her for answers.
Xi Xi (Ping): "The area around you right now is very dry, isn't it?"
Liu Yunyan (Xiao Ji): "Indeed, it's extremely dry, and the sand is irritating."
Xi Xi (Ping): "But the terrain here is very low. If I'm not mistaken, this is very likely a terrain formed by a tsunami."
A tsunami?! Liu Yunyan and Liu Enxi gasped in shock and exchanged a glance.
Xi Xi (Ping): "Your sister probably hasn't had a chance to tell you yet, but she discovered a sea spider's burrow yesterday. Logically speaking, the tunnel is located in a mountainous area, so it's impossible for aquatic spiders to be there."
Xi Xi (Ping): "I guess the sea spider's cave is much lower than where you are!"
"Yes, yes! I walked down for a long time before I met you. You're truly amazing!" Liu Enxi quickly echoed, her voice inexplicably tinged with respect, her tone rising and falling.
Xi Xi was somewhat embarrassed by this sudden tone of reverence. How exactly did Liu Yunyan usually mention her to her sister...?
Xi Xi (Ping): "Ahem... that's how it is, so those sea spiders were probably washed ashore by the waves and left in the cave after the tsunami subsided."
Xi Xi (Ping): "Therefore, the water in that cave should not be fresh water, but seawater."
Liu Enxi frowned, and the fragments of memory suddenly pieced together. She quickly nodded and replied, "That's right, that's right! The water was salty. When it splashed on my face yesterday, I licked it."
She licked it?! Xi Xi facepalmed. This girl has an incredible level of insensitivity. How could she eat water covered in spiders?
Sure enough, Liu Yunyan on the other end of the line also became agitated, looking at her older sister with both annoyance and worry, and began to nag.
Finally, Liu Yunyan was forced to the ground by Liu Enxi due to exhaustion.
Liu Enxi (Ji): "I understand... I'll be more careful in the future. You're so weak, you should lie down first. I'll talk to Miss Xi."
Xi Xi (Ping): "So, if another tsunami comes, this place will definitely be filled with seawater again."
Xi Xi (Ping): "Since we are now on the same team, I can tell you with certainty that I have some intelligence that there will be another earthquake in three days."
Liu Enxi and Liu Yunyan's expressions turned serious. One earthquake had driven them to this desperate situation, and they dared not think about what the outcome would be if it happened again.
Xi Xi (Ping): "I guess the NPCs gave you the Earth Spirit Protection Shield before, in order to deal with the upcoming earthquake."
Xi Xi (Ping): "However, the cave you are in has a history of being flooded by seawater. You know, once it happens, it will happen again!"
Xi Xi (Ping): "If you are still unable to escape when seawater floods again, the consequences will be unimaginable."
The other end of the light screen connection seemed to have been muted, falling into a deathly silence.
Xi Xi sat quietly in the passenger seat, her gaze fixed on the road ahead of the cross-sea bridge. Like the quiet atmosphere, she fell into a deep silence.
Both sisters were injured, along with a useless NPC. They had three days to escape, which seemed like a long time, but in reality, it was extremely short.
Even so, Xi Xi still found something to be thankful for: "However, there is another piece of good news to tell you."
"What good news?" the Liu sisters asked in unison.
Xi Xi (Ping): "Since this place can be flooded by seawater, it means that it is not far from the sea."
Xi Xi (Ping): "Not far from the sea, that means not far from the transit station."
Xi Xi (Ping): "In other words, you should be able to find a transfer station immediately after you escape the cave. Therefore, as long as you are fast enough, you can shake off the boss who makes the sound of the guqin even without a direct attack."
What happened next was not something Xi Xi should worry about. Even though they were in the same team, she and the Liu sisters were not in the same place, so she could not adapt to local conditions and naturally could not handle all the affairs.
