Returning to the newly built cottage felt like stepping into another world.

One side is warm as spring, while the other is chilly.

I instantly didn't want to stay there anymore. The contrast was too stark. Even though I was wearing clothes made of temperature-regulating fabric, the cold wind still managed to seep into them.

Shu Ran got in touch with Shu Xiang and learned that he was on his way and would take at least six more hours to get here.

"Let's eat something first, I want to taste the flavor of naturally cooked seafood."

Shu Ran took out the cooked seafood she had picked up in the scene.

Yunxi then used a magic spell to clean the room, especially the table.

An unidentified, bright red lobster, its body curled up, was just the right length to fill the entire table, with its long whiskers drooping down.

"It seems to have the aura of the true fire of the sun on it."

Yunxi wasn't quite sure. He had never seen the real sun and fire, but he had sensed the fluctuations on the shrimp, which were very similar to those described in the book.

"A dream collaboration? Maybe the scene we went to is a corner of a cultivation world."

Shu Ran's guess was somewhat accidental, though not entirely correct, it was close enough.

This scene is a fragment of a cultivation world, collected by the "Crossing Mountains and Seas Beautiful Life System".

The cleaning technique removes the "corpses" and fragments of other seafood. Lifting the shrimp's head reveals that the shrimp brain and internal organs are clean, and even the shrimp vein is transparent.

Wow, so much yellow!

The shrimp oil is just right; I'll save it so it won't go to waste.

He took a piece of shrimp meat that Yunxi had cut off, held it in his hand, and started eating it right away.

I couldn't eat more than half of what I usually eat, and I was sweating slightly: "I can't take it anymore, my stomach is so full!"

Shu Ran tugged at her collar, pulled out a bucket of iced drinks, and didn't forget to share a cup with Yun Xi across from her.

Distracted, Yunxi took out a digestive pill and fed it to Shuran. Feeling the fluctuations of spiritual energy within her body, Yunxi confirmed, "It is indeed the True Fire of the Sun! Eating a little will warm and nourish the body, but eating too much will cause indigestion."

"Phew, okay, I need to open the door for some fresh air."

After drinking the cold drink, Shu Ran felt a little better. This heat was coming from the inside out, and the temperature-regulating clothing didn't help much.

Yunxi's cultivation was still intact, and he could still digest the weak True Fire of the Sun. After finishing his own piece, he also ate Shuran's remaining half, and then stopped eating.

After finishing her meal, Shu Ran was full of energy and looked at the beach outside, eager to try it out.

Stepping out of the cabin, although the temperature was low, the weather was really nice, with a gentle breeze on my face and plenty of sunshine.

I didn't feel the slightest bit of cold; even my exposed hands and face were warm.

There's an old saying, "Since we're already here!"

Having seen what enormous seafood looks like, it's a good time to look at normal seafood to cleanse my eyes and pass the time.

The mudflats are not very steep, but rather quite gentle, with no jagged rocks eroded by the sea, making them perfect for beachcombing.

"Yunxi, have you finished eating?"

Shu Ran turned around and asked a question into the house.

"All right."

Yunxi cleaned the table and came out of the small house.

"Going to go beachcombing?"

Shu Ran nodded: "Yes, since we're already here, we should at least go to the beach before we leave."

"That's true!"

Yunxi nodded in agreement. Since they were already here...

They put on waterproof clothing over their thermostatic suits to avoid getting wet from the seawater, and carrying their beachcombing tools, the two walked towards the beach.

Sprinkle some salt, pull out the razor clams. Although they are larger than common razor clams, they are dozens of times smaller than those in the scene, which is much more normal.

The more Shu Ran looked at the razor clams, the more delicate they seemed. Indeed, no matter what they were, small ones were always adorable.

They picked up another crab that was walking sideways and put it in the bucket. Before they knew it, the two of them had stepped into the seawater.

Shu Ran straightened up and looked up. The sea and sky met, seemingly merging into one.

A sudden black dot appeared in the field of vision.

Shu Ran gripped the clip in her hand tightly and examined it closely. It seemed to be a person.

Drifting at sea?

"Yunxi, look, what's that over there? Is it a person?"

Unsure, Shu Ran called over Yun Xi, who was intently beachcombing about five meters away.

Two buckets were already full, and this was the third. Yunxi quite enjoyed the activity. Aside from subconsciously using her divine sense at the beginning, she relied entirely on her eyesight afterward.

"Let me see."

Yunxi raised her eyes, but her divine sense was severely suppressed, and the range she could see on Blue Star was limited.

"It looks like a person, holding onto a piece of wood and floating on the sea. Doesn't look like a foreigner."

Yunxi confirmed Shuran's guess and asked for her opinion, "He shouldn't be dead yet, should we save him?"

Without hesitation, Shu Ran replied, "Save them first, then we'll see who they are before we talk about anything else."

An Asian face! If it were someone from Xia (China), everything would be fine.

Yunxi used a trick to deceive people, while Shuran found a secluded spot and released the small boat, creating the illusion that a small boat had been moored there before.

"Sit tight!"

The two men steered the boat toward the black dot.

His upper body and arms were tightly embracing a piece of driftwood, in a rather strange posture.

The person is in a state of near unconsciousness but is trying their best to stay awake.

He was a middle-aged man, his upper body was slightly bloated, but his face was very thin. He had probably already taken off one layer of his outer clothes, and his face and lips were blue from the cold.

"Hello?"

Shu Ran spoke first, and Yun Xi pulled him up, along with the piece of driftwood he was clinging to.

Upon hearing the familiar language, the middle-aged man, whose eyes were half-open, seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, lose his strength, and then closed his eyes completely, falling into a coma.

"The person is unconscious."

Yunxi checked the middle-aged man's condition and continued, "He was freezing, and it's his limit to have held on until now before passing out."

"Let's get him back to his senses first! We've already saved him, we don't want him to die in front of us."

You can't tell anything from her face; she has a very common Asian face. With her eyes closed, it's even harder to tell which country she's from. Shu Ran took out a Peiyuan Pill and handed it to Yun Xi.

"There's no need for the Qi-Nourishing Pill. Keep this safe. I have some medicine here that's just the right remedy for his current symptoms."

Considering something, Yunxi continued, "The cold has seeped into his bones, and even if he is saved, there will be aftereffects. If we want to remove the cold without any impact, we can feed him the cooked seafood we ate before for three meals after he wakes up."

There's no need to waste the top-grade Qi-Nourishing Pill.

A mere ray of sunshine is enough; the insignificant chill will be annihilated in no time.

"Row."

Shu Ran put away the pills, squatted down in front of the man, and watched as Yun Xi put the pills into his mouth, making him swallow them with a slight movement of her fingers.

When will he wake up?

Yunxi used a magic spell to dry the seawater off the middle-aged man's body, but it didn't remove the fishy smell. She replied, "About an hour!"

"How about we search him first?"

Clinging to the driftwood and not letting go, even when unconscious, raises serious suspicions.
