Chapter 288 Double Warmth



To complete the set, Chu Zhiqin only took 6 of the "Ancient Greek" cultural relics, while Xi Xi kept the three "Ancient Greek" items—the Synesthetic Chain Ring, the Betting Scales, and the Blessing Wheat Ear—with her.

She carefully put the synesthetic necklace back around Aura's neck, then bent down and gently stroked the cow cat, who was sleeping sprawled out on its back with its belly exposed.

According to Xi's father, this little guy is amazing. After Cheng Xu rescued him, he checked him over for a long time and found no other injuries except for some frostbite marks on his paw pads.

On the contrary, the calico cat's nails, which hadn't been trimmed in a long time, contained a trace of dried blood; I wonder which unlucky fellow had gotten it...

As expected of the cunning black and white cat who "turns the table when its owner eats"... For the first time, Xi Xi felt fortunate for her kitten's domineering personality.

It is worth mentioning that Xi Xi also gained a lot in addition to cultural heritage.

Yada Tsukasa was in the top three in both the food competition and the silk competition, and Xi Xi was very lucky to win a gold lucky bag and a silver lucky bag.

This old man has quite a few treasures hidden in his lucky bag! Besides a thick stack of talismans, there are three cans of refreshing sparkling water and a decent weapon—the Flame Arrow.

No wonder Yada Tsukasa was so poisoned. Even on his deathbed, he was trembling and fumbling for the lucky bag at his waist. It turns out he wanted to use the weapon to turn the tide and catch Xi Xi off guard.

Unfortunately, Xi Xi was far too familiar with the appearance of the golden lucky bag, so her reaction was exceptionally quick, and she snatched it away first.

Xi Xi glanced at the fiery arrow and suddenly remembered that she seemed to have fired an arrow with the exact same bow before. However, because her ranged shooting ability was so poor, she had never been able to use it.

"Dad, you can take this bow and arrow." Xi Xi took out her fire arrows and compared them. After confirming that they were identical, she handed one of them to her father.

Xi Zhongcang was taking care of Chu Zhiqin at the moment, so he had no time to study bows and arrows.

"It's alright, I just ran out of stamina. I'll make a bowl of rose milk tea tomorrow morning, and drinking it will remove the negative debuff," Xi Xi comforted him softly.

Fortunately, the fish tank automatically supplied oxygen and adjusted the temperature when it was filled with water, so it didn't freeze in this freezing weather, and the algae inside still grew vigorously.

Xi Zhongcang nodded slightly in response, then turned his gaze to the window, where the sky was already beginning to brighten. After a moment's thought, he suggested that they wait for Cheng Xu and Liu Yunyan to return before setting off immediately.

Logically speaking, Liu Enxi and Cheng's parents, who had just fully recovered, still had plenty of energy, so driving through the night shouldn't be a problem. They could then take turns driving day and night the next day, which was perfectly feasible.

Time is of the essence, and we really can't delay any longer.

Xi Xi nodded in agreement, and then discussed the vehicle upgrade with the others. The number of vehicles seized from the Yamato Guard was considerable, the lowest being a Tier 2 minivan, not to mention Miyano's Tier 4 motorhome and Yada Tsukasa's Tier 5 large motorhome!

Because of their limited strength, Cheng's father and Liu Enxi had no intention of taking more than necessary. In particular, Cheng's parents were already extremely grateful to everyone who treated their wounds without any disgust after they were rescued. With Chu Zhiqin's full efforts to heal them, their gratitude far surpassed that of others.

However, Xi Xi did not agree with this idea. She knew that this great victory was the result of perfect cooperation among everyone. Although they had put in a lot of effort, they had also gained a lot. How could they share the hardships but not the rewards?

Moreover, in a blizzard, a flimsy little car can hardly withstand the elements, so upgrading to a better vehicle is the only way forward!

Therefore, after careful consideration, Cheng's father first found the Cheng family's lost vehicle among many vehicles, and then helped Xi Xi carefully calculate the number of vehicles needed for the upgrade and made an overall plan.

Xi Xi has always been decisive and opinionated. She quickly decided to upgrade both vehicles to two-story RVs and distribute various winter tents from the Yamato Guard to everyone.

“We don’t need this high-end RV! Captain, why don’t you upgrade your big RV a bit more? Who knows, it might even serve as a deterrent to the enemy as we travel!” Cheng’s father said to Xi Xi with a big smile as he enthusiastically calculated on paper.

Liu Enxi listened from the side and echoed, but as she looked at the circles and swirls on the drawing, she suddenly realized another problem, and her face flushed red. She said somewhat embarrassedly:

“Hey, this doesn’t seem right… Yunyan and I are only responsible for some trivial logistical work, but we have to take an extra van, this… isn’t quite right.”

"What's wrong with logistics? Logistics is important too!" Chu Zhiqin, who had recovered from drinking a refreshing soda, strongly disagreed with Liu Enxi's thinking.

Seeing this, Cheng's father quickly waved his hand, "Just take it! Xiaoxu and the others drove another car to chase after the supplies, we didn't count that car!"

"And there are also silencing beads and injection potatoes," Xi Xi added from the side. "The three of us will each have one silencing bead, all provided by you guys. Okay, it's decided then. As for the supplies, let's brainstorm and see how to properly store and distribute them, so that everyone can take what they need."

"By the way, I've been observing them for a long time, and their winter tents are really good," Xi Xi said while organizing the resources in her hands.

"If the road ahead is still unbearably cold, we can pitch a tent inside the car to keep warm. So, this car absolutely has to be upgraded! Otherwise, there won't even be a place to pitch a tent."

Cheng's mother leaned forward and touched the pile of tents: "It really is! Look at the material of these tents, they're thick and warm! If it weren't for these tents when we were locked up, we would have died long ago..."
