In a year of natural disasters, the young woman had billions of resources to build a paradise.

In that dark place, countless golden lights converged, illuminating the darkness once more. Twenty-six, who had been in a deep sleep, slowly opened his eyes, sensing that the power in his body had been restored, and the corners of his lips slightly lifted.

"Hmph, what are you lingering for? Hurry up or you'll fall behind Ciyuan!"

The old man grabbed him and led him away.

He truly hadn't expected that this kid would actually manage to save the small world that was supposed to collapse! You see, while collapsing is easy for the Three Thousand Worlds, truly becoming a self-contained world is incredibly difficult! A newly formed world is blessed with resources!

Anyone who receives this blessing, if they are an ordinary person, will have their old ailments cured, their marrow cleansed, and their bones strengthened, and will also gain wisdom, enlightenment, and a clear mind! But for those of them…

The thought was still flashing through my mind when I tried to grab something but it was empty.

The old man looked up and saw that the brat who had been lying there just moments before was now striding out!

"Hey? You brat, wait for me!"

With each step he took, the void beneath his feet seemed to shrink spontaneously, and his original white robes transformed dreamlike, radiating light—even a banished immortal could not have achieved such a sight.

Jiang Mianmian was listening attentively to Liu Hongru announcing the candidates for officials when she suddenly seemed to sense something and realized that there was another person in her villa!

Besides Tongzi, she couldn't think of anyone else who could appear in her villa so quietly!

She quickly checked her merit points and was astonished to find that they had already reached over ten million and were still rapidly increasing! It seemed there was a 90% chance that the system had arrived!

Now, she's going back to see Tongzi!

[Stay calm, don't panic, I'm here, I won't leave this time.]

As if knowing what she wanted to do, Twenty-Six quickly sent her a message through his mind: "Enjoy the ceremony well. I will tell you everything after it's over."

【it is good! 】

Jiang Mianmian forcibly controlled her legs, otherwise she really would have run back.

Fortunately, Liu Hongru read quickly. After the officials had finished their rites, he announced the abolition of the Taoyuan Law and the points system, issued Taoyuan currency, and other trivial matters. The grand ceremony was finally over.

"I have other matters to attend to. Enjoy your meal!"

Jiang Mianmian rushed back to the villa after only managing to utter that sentence, and sure enough, she saw Twenty-Six smiling at her.

Her eyes welled up with tears, which she couldn't stop flowing. "What happened to you? How are you now?"

"It's alright, thank you."

Twenty-six pulled her into his arms and ruffled her hair. "You're even better than I imagined!"

"I want your praise! I want to know what happened, why you suddenly disappeared!"

Jiang Mianmian was sobbing uncontrollably, feeling both angry and amused. She remembered seeing him before, when he was coughing up blood, and she couldn't bear to push him away.

Twenty-six said softly, "Actually, I was originally the manager of this small world, and I have experienced the collapse of the world more than once."

At first, the natural disasters were not serious, just three years of drought. However, the government's inaction led to countless people dying from heat and starvation.

He couldn't bear to see these people die so tragically, so he forcibly reversed time. However, the most direct consequence of doing so was that Heaven was displeased, and thus punished them with even more severe natural disasters. As the ruler, he could not directly participate in the operation of the world and could only hope that Emperor Zhaowu would be more clear-headed and responsible.

Unexpectedly, Emperor Zhaowu went even further this time, resulting in even more deaths.

He was filled with remorse, and once again the situation reversed. He begged Heaven not to send down further punishment, saying he was willing to restore everything. But Heaven, which had promised so readily, broke its promise.

This time, there were torrential rains, earthquakes, extreme heat, extreme cold, and plagues... Just like the one Jiang Mianmian had experienced, except that she really died in the fire that time!

Twenty-six no longer believed in the will of Heaven, and forcibly reversed time to the moment before Jiang Mianmian died. From then on, the two began their century-long journey.

Jiang Mianmian listened with great emotion, "So Peach Blossom Spring will really be a world of its own from now on? What about the outside world...?"

"The outside world will collapse sooner or later, so we need to screen people as soon as possible, bring them in, and transfer useful supplies over as well."

Twenty-six's face was full of relief, and he was about to say something.

The outside area became lively.

Ninth Sister and Seventh Sister returned, and as soon as they entered the courtyard, they saw the two embracing each other. "Ah! You, you!"

"Hey, isn't this Twenty-Six? Gone and disappeared?"

Jiang Mianmian quickly broke free, "It's not that he disappeared, he has something he can't say!"

She closed the courtyard gate, and now she could finally tell them the whole truth, and also reveal Twenty-Six's identity.

However, there was no surprise as expected.

Seventh Sister hugged her. "We guessed it a long time ago, but since you didn't say anything, we didn't ask. Why would we want to upset you for no reason? It's all in the past now, and everything will get better and better from now on!"

Twenty-five hugged her too, her eyes glistening with tears, "Sister Mianmian is so amazing!"

At that moment, a light drizzle began to fall.

Jiu Niang hurriedly invited everyone inside to chat, but Ershi Liu stopped her, saying, "This is Ci Yuan."

After the explanation, everyone looked closely at the rain and indeed found that the raindrops seemed to glow slightly, and felt very comfortable when they fell on their skin.

Jiang Mianmian became interested, "Come on, I'll take you to visit Peach Blossom Spring!"

"it is good."

Twenty-six followed her, and Ninth Sister and the others followed her.

The group left the villa in a grand procession.

The rain was light, and the people in Peach Blossom Spring did not seek shelter from the rain, but happily continued their busy work.

In the fields, at vegetable sheds and ponds, busy figures can be seen everywhere, creating a thriving scene.

Even the people in the slave quarters had smiles on their faces. Completing the mission meant they would get food, which was much better than being outside!

As darkness fell, the two realized that their "tails" had disappeared.

The aroma of food and the fragrance of flowers and herbs permeated the surroundings, not jarringly, but rather blended perfectly.

Jiang Mianmian's stomach rumbled. "I'll grill some fish for you."

When she first started doing quests with Tongzi, she arrived in a new small world with no money on her. She could only catch fish in the river to eat. At first, she would burn the fish, but she gradually learned how to cook them until they were crispy and fragrant.

At that time, Tongzi was craving fish so badly that she said she would grill it for him herself if she had the chance in the future.

Isn't the opportunity here?

"it is good."

Twenty-six also remembered and laughed, "I never thought this day would actually come."

He was exhausted when he helped Jiang Mianmian regain her life, and thought he would never wake up again. He never expected to have the chance to eat the fish that this girl grilled herself.

Jiang Mianmian rolled up her trousers and went down into the river to catch fish.

She has fish in her warehouse, but most of them are bought. It's not as fun as catching them yourself.

The clear river water flowed through their fingers, and a fat fish leaped out of the water to escape, only to be caught tightly by a pair of hands. "Gotcha!"

Twenty-six had already set up a fire. "Come on."

The two used the most primitive method to clean the fish, skewered them with branches, and slowly smoked them.

The fish skin shrinks and gradually becomes crispy, while the fish meat has no fishy smell at all. Sprinkled with cumin and chili powder, the salty, fresh, sweet, and spicy flavors all burst forth in double the intensity.

The little old man who had been hiding in the corner, silently observing the two, suddenly appeared and shouted, "Give me one right now!"

Jiang Mianmian instinctively picked up the fish. "Who are you?"

She didn't even notice!

"This is the manager of another small world. He's very idle and likes to freeload meals here. You can just call him Greedy Old Man."

Twenty-six is ​​introduced.

The gluttonous old man was very dissatisfied, "If it weren't for me, would you have recovered so quickly? It's all thanks to me taking care of you day and night!"

Jiang Mianmian sorted things out and handed him the fish, saying, "Grandpa, this is spicy. Shall I grill you a non-spicy one?"

Being good to Tongzi is being good to her; what's a fish compared to that!

"Oh, little girl, you're so perceptive! No wonder that brat dreams about..."

"cough!"

Twenty-six coughed loudly, and the greedy old man quickly stopped eating and lowered his head to start eating the fish.

Jiang Mianmian also lowered her head and silently grilled the fish.

The fire was a bit too strong, and my face felt really hot.

After the three of them ate the grilled fish, they walked back together. Jiang Mianmian used her merit points to buy a villa, which was placed next to her own villa. After settling the two of them in, she went back to rest.

Jiang Mianmian slept very soundly that night.

With the arrival of the Twenty-Sixth, the construction of Taoyuan accelerated even further. Jiang Mianmian dispatched the 300,000-strong army to various regions to rescue refugees.

Overnight, Rongguo seemed to come back to life, and everyone was moving in the same direction.

After Lin Bao and Twenty-Two's wedding, Jiang Mianmian set off with Twenty-Six.

The two traveled around the border of Rongguo, firstly to help the refugees, and secondly to collect all the houses that were not yet completely destroyed and store them in Taoyuan or warehouses.

It took three whole months to travel all over the Rong Kingdom, and of course, it was very fruitful.

The two returned to Peach Blossom Spring before the weather turned cold.

Shi Yi and his group were not idle either. High-rise buildings were built in Peach Blossom Spring, and underground cities were built in the camp.

The refugees were screened at each level and placed in different locations.

But no matter where they are, they have seen hope for survival.

The extreme cold spread, but it had no effect on Peach Blossom Spring. Those people who were unable to enter Peach Blossom Spring all hid in the underground city, where there was food, water, and a stove.

Of course, there's work to be done in the dungeon: making clothes, learning skills, growing vegetables and raising chickens. As time goes by, they become stronger and stronger.

Soon, spring arrived in Peach Blossom Spring, and Jiang Mianmian and Twenty-Six set off again.

This small world is not just Rongguo; there are many other small countries in the surrounding area, and many large countries across the sea.

Their new goal is to travel all over this little world.
