How can one become an immortal with such laziness?

"Then stop criticizing me. Can you really bear to see Mouyang's hair turn white?"

Hei Yang retorted, "Can't you try a little harder?"

"Why let me come?"

"Then why did you make me come?"

Hei Yang: "..."

Hongli: "..."

"We are still young, and it's not too late to discuss this kind of thing decades from now."

"One thing to say, one thing to say, indeed."

The two tacitly avoided the topic.

"so……"

Hei Yang looked around, bewildered: "Where should we go now?"

"I can't go home..."

Hongli said dejectedly, "Maybe we really have to find a bridge arch to live under, but I don't know if the entrance to the arch is frozen shut..."

"Impossible, I would never live under a bridge in my entire life."

Hei Yang resolutely refused and pulled Hong Li to turn around.

"Let's go to the pavilion in the middle of the lake; at least there we can get shelter from the wind and snow."

"Aren't there two members of the Medicine King Sect there?"

"Then chase them away! This is ( ), and they are the ones who should ( )!"

“Great idea, we should have done this a long time ago.”

…………

The two men marched confidently toward the pavilion in the middle of the lake, only to find it deserted.

Clearly, the two members of the Medicine King Sect are not fixed NPCs; they have been randomly assigned to an unknown location.

"so……"

Hongli sighed and rubbed her forehead in exasperation: "Even those two out-of-towners have a place to stay, but we two locals are destined to end up like this?"

"Think positively..."

Hei Yang said calmly, "Perhaps they were just eaten by a monster that jumped out from somewhere?"

"Thank you, Heiyang. Deceiving myself like this makes me feel much better."

"You're welcome, Xiao Li. A little self-deception can make people feel much happier."

"But it's also..."

Hongli swept the snow off the bench in the pavilion, sat down gently, and sighed, "No one would be crazy enough to come here in this kind of weather."

"To add, besides the two of us."

Hei Yang sighed, sat down next to the girl, tilted his head slightly, and quietly looked at the snow-covered landscape in the distance, then suddenly froze.

"Speaking of which, the day the Lazy Dog Savior came to us was a snowy day."

There was also the spirit chicken, which came looking for them that day, leading to the series of events that followed.

So, another year has already passed?

"Yes, another year has passed, and so many things have happened this year..."

Hong Li's eyes flickered, and her face showed emotion.

"To be honest, looking back now, this year was indeed wonderful, and it is a brilliant page in my memory."

Of course, if I had to go through it all again, I would still feel bad.

"It's okay, we were together a year ago, and we're still together now, that's enough."

Hei Yang turned to look at Hong Li and smiled slightly.

"Moreover, compared to a year ago, I can now rightfully hold your hand as your lover."

"Yeah, that's great..."

Upon hearing this, Hongli subconsciously smiled, but she couldn't help but retort.

"Aren't we being particularly sentimental?"

We've been childhood sweethearts since we were little, and we have feelings for each other.

If it were someone else, they'd probably be together by now, and they've probably done everything they should and shouldn't have done. Their kids might already be old enough to run errands.

"Be more confident, you might even have grandchildren by now."

"You can't have that!"

Hongli rolled her eyes and patted Heiyang's leg: "Besides, don't you feel like something's missing?"

"what?"

Hei Yang was puzzled.

"A blanket, a stove, hot milk!"

Hongli pouted, somewhat annoyed.

"Our quality of life used to be so good, how did it become like this!"

"Hurry up, take the blanket out of the storage bag. Even though I'm not afraid of the cold, I still feel uncomfortable without something covering me."

"Uh, well, hahaha..."

Hei Yang chuckled and scratched his head, spreading his arms wide with an embarrassed look: "Actually, you don't necessarily need a blanket."

Come, snuggle into your father's arms, let me use my frail body to shield you from the bitter cold of the snow!

"Aha?"

Hongli turned her head to look at Heiyang, tilting her little head: "Dude, what's wrong with you?"

"Hmm, if you really want to hug me, it's not impossible... wait!"

Hong Li was speaking halfway through when she saw Hei Yang's awkward smile and suddenly realized what she meant, her eyes widening in surprise.

"Good brother, don't tell me you threw away our blankets!"

"Uh, um, it's not lost..."

Hei Yang guiltily turned his head away, not daring to meet his girlfriend's gaze.

"That's right, I just sent it out and left it in the underworld."

Yes, that's right. The blanket wasn't lost; it's just been moved to a different way to stay with us. Its spirit lives on, and I will always remember the warmth it brought us!

Hongli: "..."

Hei Yang: "..."

"You've made our already impoverished family even worse off, you spendthrift..."

Hongli was heartbroken, clutching her soft chest in anguish: "I've lost you forever, and all I see is ruin!"

As for going to the underworld to retrieve the blanket, well, she finally found an excuse to get out, let whoever wants to go go, she's not going!

"Hey, you can't put all the blame for this on me, can you?"

Hei Yang glared at her, giving her a "How dare you?" look, then reached out and pinched Hong Li's face, ruining her facial expression, and said speechlessly.

"Who said that? That we'll definitely have a new home tomorrow!"

I gave the blanket away because I trusted you!

As a result, you betrayed my unconditional trust. You're the one who should apologize!

"Hey, if you really can't bear to part with it, you can go to the underworld and ask Grandma Meng for it back!"

“Ahh…”

Hong Li's head was being pulled and turned by Hei Yang, and she looked utterly dejected.

"But, but I was also one of those who got scammed! Who could have predicted this kind of thing... ah, who could have foreseen it... ah..."

"No, stop pulling! My mouth... I'm drooling!"

Hongli rolled her eyes, swatted away Heiyang's paw, and sighed as she watched the wind and snow whistling into the pavilion.

"So tell me, what do we do now?"

"Hmph, self-reliance leads to abundance!"

Hei Yang rummaged through the storage bag, then suddenly laughed triumphantly, reaching out to feel around: "Watch me show you something!"

"Hmm, this is..."

Hongli looked at the thing in Heiyang's hand and asked in confusion, "A ball of yarn?"

"uh-huh!"
