"By the way, Yaya, do you want to sleep in a separate room?" He asked the little girl in his arms.
Yaya hurriedly hugged her and said with an uneasy look on her face: "Yaya wants to sleep with you..."
The little girl has had almost no sense of security since she was born, and now she suddenly has to sleep in separate rooms, which is probably unacceptable.
Jiang Cheng had no choice but to rely on her for the first time. The little girl was still young anyway, only six years old and didn't understand anything.
At worst, wait until she falls asleep before sleeping at night.
Putting the little girl on the ground, Jiang Cheng took out the cowhide to make the bed.
The bed is just an ordinary wooden bed. Although there is no bedding, the quality of the bed is very good.
After laying it out several layers to ensure a soft and comfortable sleep, he rolled a few pieces of cowhide into pillows and placed them at the head of the bed.
Finally, he used the largest piece of cowhide as a quilt. The weather was still very hot anyway, so the quilt was dispensable.
"Since there is still water here, we will settle here first and we will talk about the rest later."
After making the bed, Jiang Cheng said to the two girls.
"I listen to you." Tong Xiaorou naturally had no objection. She hesitated for a moment and suddenly worried: "Am I causing trouble for you?"
"No, don't think too much." Jiang Cheng comforted.
"Yaya also listens to my brother-in-law." The little girl said.
Jiang Cheng smiled slightly, went to the window and looked out through the single-sided glass, and found that there were quite a few people passing by.
Obviously there are many people staying here, all because of the Longxi Lake that has not yet dried up.
But Longxi Lake, if nothing unexpected happens, will definitely be heavily guarded by Longxi Camp, and it will be impossible for outsiders to go in and get water.
If you want water, you can only trade it with something.
"Tuk tuk..."
Liang Xin knocked on the door outside and said, "Sir, it's me."
Jiang Cheng opened the door and asked, "What's the matter?"
Liang Xin said solemnly: "I found that someone was observing us from several directions. I carefully identified them and found that they were from the Black Wind Merchant Group."
Although Jiang Cheng had expected it, his heart sank at this moment: "Continue to observe, call me if there are special circumstances."
"Yes, sir."
Liang Xin hesitated for a moment and then said: "Sir, I observed when I was outside before that there were many craters and bloodstains outside the temporary residence..."
"What do you mean?" Jiang Cheng was startled.
Liang Xin explained: "I have carefully observed that the temporary residence almost surrounds the entire Longxi Camp. Do you think that the temporary residence is like the second wall of the Longxi Camp?"
Jiang Cheng's eyes narrowed, and he couldn't help but think of the previous bison migration incident, and the giant bison crossing the border.
"You mean..."
"I just suspect that there may be herd migration here, and there is a lake here that has not completely dried up. I'm afraid..."
Liang Xin didn't say it completely, but Jiang Cheng already understood.
Jiang Cheng took a deep look at Liang Xin and said, "Observe carefully. Try to use your strengths and do things for me. I won't treat you badly."
"Yes, sir!" Liang Xin felt happy and said goodbye.
"Is it dangerous? Isn't it safe here?" Tong Xiaorou walked over and asked worriedly.
Jiang Cheng put his arm around the girl's waist and said with a smile: "In today's world, where is not dangerous? It's already very good here, at least there is water. Okay, let's eat first, make do with it today, and try again tomorrow Cook some normal food, I remember your cooking skills are pretty good."
Tong Xiaorou said immediately: "The kind of barbecue we eat now is not adequate at all. Many people will never be able to eat this kind of food in their lives."
Perhaps worried that Jiang Cheng would misunderstand, she hurriedly added: "But as long as you like it, I can cook for you every day."
"Okay." Jiang Cheng smiled, took out water and food and shared them with the two girls.
After eating and drinking, the sky turned completely dark and the street lights turned on outside.
Even the temporary residence has street lights and is not quiet at night.
And, more people may come here in the future.
…
Waiting for Tong Xiaorou to fall asleep tiredly.
Jiang Cheng lay down for a while, then sat up and took out something that he had subconsciously ignored before.
A local communicator that looks like a Bluetooth headset.
This was given to me by Yang Kuifeng, the former shelter security guard and power armor driver.
This local communicator can communicate with Yang Kuifeng's Taiwan 2 powered armor within ten kilometers.
Jiang Cheng pondered for a moment, then tried putting it to his ear and pressing the communication button.
However, there was only intermittent blind sound in the headphones, and there was no response.
Obviously, Yang Kuifeng's powered armor was ten kilometers away.
Because he had known the result for a long time, Jiang Cheng was not disappointed. Anyway, he had never thought of relying on external forces to solve the troubles of the Black Wind Merchant Group. He just wanted to trade some more things.
But this plan was obviously going to come to nothing.
It was past twelve o'clock in the morning, and there was a cloudy tide outside, but it didn't seem to enter the house, and the cloudy tide outside was also very thin.
Obviously, the rumors that monsters at night will not appear in crowded places are most likely true.
Putting away his headphones, Jiang Cheng went directly under the bed and used the collecting technique in the most inconspicuous corner.
He wanted to continue to level up, and he wanted to level up first. While digging cellars and escape tunnels, he also used the collected materials to strengthen the house, so as not to be in a hurry when encountering danger.
At the same time, he also wanted to see if he could dig to the depth of Longxi Lake. If he could get the water himself, that would be great.
After the collection technique was used, the concrete at the bottom of the bed quickly disappeared, and a pit one meter long and wide appeared.
Jiang Cheng didn't stop, jumped in and continued collecting.
Of course, in order to prevent being unable to climb up, after the hole was dug to a depth of two meters, he dug it at an angle and soon dug out a ladder that sloped downward.
Each step of the staircase is one meter high.
Because this is still a prairie area, the grass roots are very lush, and the soil is chewed tightly and is not easy to collapse.
Jiang Cheng also dug deeper with more confidence.
When the space backpack was full, he returned to the room, took out the excavated concrete and soil from the ground, piled it in the corner, and used synthesis skills to strengthen the walls and floors.
During the flash of light, the soil quickly turned into dust, collapsed from the particle level, and its properties were absorbed by the walls of the room.
Although the properties of the wall cannot be seen due to the insufficient field of view, since it can be synthesized and strengthened, the defense of the wall will definitely increase.
After all the soil was used up, he returned to the ground to collect.
So back and forth, back and forth.
The ground was quickly dug out to a depth of more than ten meters, and he even widened it in some places.
Unfortunately, even after digging more than ten meters deep, the soil is still very dry. Obviously, the water of Longxi Lake is very deep.
Jiang Cheng wasn't too disappointed. After all, digging for water was just a way to get the best. If you couldn't find it, buy it.
When we were collecting wood before, because the trees were so big, the distance between every two trees was very long, and it took a lot of time just to walk.
Moreover, we had to guard against the sneak attack of the evolved mantis, so the collection speed and experience gain were very slow. Only half of the actual collection time was spent in a day.
But now, with the soil under your feet, there is almost no need for any delay. Even if you collect a step, you only need to take a step and squat down to continue collecting.
Therefore, the collection speed has skyrocketed, and the experience improvement speed has skyrocketed.
In just one night, Jiang Cheng upgraded again, from level thirteen to level fourteen, and his life increased by 0.1.
Of course, the strength increase brought about by upgrading is almost negligible.
But as long as his realm rises, his strength growth rate can be greatly increased.
