I was forced to leave the world of immortal cultivation after being transformed into a loser.

He did not use trees, but bamboo. He said that sleeping on a bamboo bed is cool and comfortable in the summer, and it is relatively easy to make. You just need to cut down a few bamboos, break them into strips, and then piece the strips together to make it.

He watched a low stool take shape in his hands, then polished off some burrs, and then he made a bamboo table and two chairs.

Gu Liyue used the leftover scraps as firewood and cooked dinner.

Seeing Nie Hengzhou busy and covered in bamboo debris and sawdust, and seeing the sky getting dark, she called him, "Go to the bathroom in the backyard and wash up, then come over for dinner."

Gu Liyue handed him his other set of clothes and said to him, "Put your clothes in the wooden tub in the bathroom after washing. I'll wash them after dinner."

Nie Hengzhou also felt a little tired and replied, "Okay, just put the new table and chairs away and we can use them. We only made one bed and there's not enough bamboo. We'll put it away later."

After taking a shower, Nie Hengzhou came to the yard in front of the house and saw that Gu Liyue had already prepared the food and put it on the table. There was only one oil lamp lit in the yard, and with the moonlight tonight, it didn't feel very dark.

Gu Liyue looked at Nie Hengzhou, who looked exhausted, and said, "Eat, and then go to bed early. Don't work too late tomorrow."

Nie Hengzhou wanted to say that he was fine, but then he heard Gu Liyue say, "Finish all your work before dark, and you won't waste the oil lamp."

Nie Hengzhou: “…”

The mortal was very tired and worried about wasting money. After only two days, he felt that he could no longer cope.

Maybe it's difficult at first, but I'll get used to it slowly, he comforted himself.

The most important thing is that Gu Liyue is by his side, so he feels that he can adapt to any environment.

Although he felt that he might only be able to stay here for three months, he didn't want to make too much of a compromise, so he was extra careful when making furniture.

He thought the dinner made by Gu Liyue was delicious, and the two of them finished off the three dishes, one soup and a pot of rice on the table.

After sitting in the yard for a while and looking at the moon, Nie Hengzhou moved his chair to Gu Liyue and asked, "Yue, do you feel tired of living like this?"

Gu Liyue thought about her life in her previous life, fighting zombies. She was tense every day and had no hope for the future. That kind of life was tiring.

"It's not so bad. In the mortal world, many people live like this, struggling to make ends meet every day. We're fine, having killed a tiger and sold it for money. It would be terrible if we had no money at all, as we might have to sell ourselves into slavery." Gu Liyue said half-jokingly, "If it came to that, would you be willing to sell yourself?"

Nie Hengzhou said, "I don't want to."

"If you don't agree, you will starve to death?"

Without waiting for Nie Hengzhou's reply, she patted his shoulder and said, "I'll go wash the dishes first, then take a shower."

Seeing that she looked listless, Nie Hengzhou said, "I'll wash the dishes. You go take a shower."

Gu Liyue looked back at him and said, "Okay."

Nie Hengzhou, wash all the pots and pans, move the bed into the house, and move the tables and chairs into the main room.

Looking at Gu Liyue holding the wooden basin, he said, "Let's wash the clothes tomorrow. I see that people in this village wash clothes in the morning."

Gu Liyue nodded, only to realize that there was only one bed tonight. She looked at the floor and then at the bed.

Nie Hengzhou also noticed her gaze and said, "I'll go to the two chairs in the main room and stay there for one more night."

Gu Liyue looked at his tired face and said, "Uh, why don't we sleep on the couch together? It looks pretty big, so just don't move your hands."

Nie Hengzhou looked at her and knew that she was worried about him. He felt warm in his heart and said softly, "Okay."

Gu Liyue set up the mosquito net. She was glad that she had the foresight to buy a mosquito net. Last night, they were both bitten by mosquitoes and got many red spots, which were itchy and painful.

Blowing out the oil lamp, Nie Hengzhou said, "Go to sleep."

Gu Liyue responded: "Yeah."

The two of them lay side by side on the couch, and Nie Hengzhou whispered, "I want to hold your hand."

Gu Liyue hesitated for a moment: "Hmm."

Nie Hengzhou reached out his hand, took hers, and said, "I don't know when we can get out. I don't know how long we will have to stay here."

Gu Liyue said: "Yeah, I always feel that getting us in here is not that easy."

After a moment, Gu Liyue felt Nie Hengzhou taking her hand and putting it to his lips and kissing it. The touch of his hand was warm and soft, and the feeling was very clear, and it was transmitted to her heart in an instant. Her heart seemed to tremble. The unfamiliar feeling made her want to pull her hand back, but she didn't expect that Nie Hengzhou held it tightly.

Nie Hengzhou said, "Let me hold it for a while longer. I won't move."

Gu Liyue had no choice but to give up. She felt that the temperature around her seemed to have risen a little, making her feel a little hot.

She took a deep breath and said coldly, "The Disguise Pills we took can only last for three months. These are the only two I have left. I hope we can get out by then."

Nie Hengzhou knew that Gu Liyue was changing the subject in order to sober himself up. He let go of Gu Liyue's hand and replied, "Okay, go to sleep."

Maybe because she was too tired during the day, she did not have the sleepless night that Gu Liyue had expected, but slept very well instead.

When the first ray of sunlight in the morning shone into the house through the window, Gu Liyue opened her eyes and saw Nie Hengzhou's disguised face. The face looked rough, but not ugly if you looked closely.

She found that one of her legs was across Nie Hengzhou's leg, and one of Nie Hengzhou's arms was on her waist.

She was a little embarrassed when she found that Nie Hengzhou was still sleeping. She gently lifted her legs and was about to move away when Nie Hengzhou opened his eyes with a bit of confusion in his eyes. He saw a slightly unfamiliar face in front of him.

For some reason, he knew in his heart that this was Gu Liyue, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"My dream has come true." As he spoke, the corners of his mouth curled up. He slowly moved closer to Gu Liyue and pecked her lips. "This tastes so real!"

Gu Liyue was confused and didn't dare to move. She just lifted one leg. It was not right to put it down, and there was no space to move it. She felt a little sore from lifting it.

Her attention was focused on her legs, and when Nie Hengzhou pecked her again, she realized she had been attacked again, and felt a surge of heat rushing to her face.

The confusion in Nie Hengzhou's eyes gradually dissipated, as if he remembered why the two of them were there. He looked at Gu Liyue's legs in a strange position and said, "Yue, what are you thinking..."

Gu Liyue stretched out her legs and said, "I just want to get up."

Then she looked at Nie Hengzhou's arms around her waist.

Nie Hengzhou felt a little embarrassed because he had just kissed Gu Liyue twice, and was afraid that Gu Liyue would be angry. He looked at Gu Liyue carefully and found that her face was a little red, and she didn't have any other emotions. He had no choice but to retract his arm, sit up, and let Gu Liyue get up.
