Haicheng is truly a food desert; there isn't even a decent restaurant. There are only a few scattered food stalls, mostly selling noodles, steamed buns, and mantou (steamed bread), and even those are mostly made from coarse grains.

The most popular items were dried seafood, and the prices were incredibly cheap. The entire market reeked of fish.

Unable to bear it any longer, she ran away with Jiang Yi!

She walked around all morning and found that there was nowhere in the entire prefecture where she could find a stir-fry restaurant.

No wonder the inns don't serve meals; they're poor, food is rationed.

It's difficult, really difficult!

She had never seen such a poor place. She had thought that facing the sea meant a peaceful and prosperous life. Little did she know, all she found facing the sea was dried salted fish!

Fishing nets are easily broken, so she ordered 50 from the boss. Jiang Yi originally planned to learn how to mend nets from the boss, but unfortunately, the boss wouldn't teach her.

The most outrageous thing was that on the way, when the patrolmen saw Jiang Yi, their eyes lit up and they grabbed him, wanting him to join the army.

I've always said that with such a strong physique and such a promising talent, he'll definitely be able to kill a lot of enemies on the battlefield.

Xia Ning had to explain for a long time that they weren't locals before she finally managed to get away.

Too scary!

If she hadn't stopped him in time, Jiang Yi would have drawn his sword. He has always been unable to tolerate strangers getting close.

"Let's go home and take a shower."

Xia Ning: ……

So what if I got pulled a few times?

"Jiang Yi, from now on, when you go out, why don't you stay home?" The people here are terrifying. No wonder the people walking on the streets are all weaklings. She thought they were just starving because they weren't eating enough staple food. No wonder the waiter looked at Jiang Yi and hesitated several times. He probably wanted to persuade him to join the court and sacrifice himself for General Zhao.

"No, the people here are too scary, I have to protect you."

"You must trust me and stay with me, otherwise I will be in danger."

It's not that they're too scary, it's that you're too tempting. The able-bodied men fight, the ordinary people are responsible for farming, construction, and preserving the bloodline for Haicheng—this General Zhao is a real talent!

What kind of person could do something so bizarre?

Jiang Yi pursed his lips tightly; well, he was unhappy again.

Xia Ning ignored him; she couldn't indulge his temper. She was out doing serious business.

"Or, you can disguise me."

After a long pause, Jiang Yi finally managed to utter a sentence.

"You're such a big guy, it's not like you can be cut in half."

"Just make me look like I'm about to die, isn't that enough?"

Look at who's about to die, yet still so healthy?

"let me try!"

The next day, Jiang Yi, looking sickly, followed Xia Ning to the grocery store to place an order.

Tools for repairing fishing nets. As for not knowing how, you'll definitely figure it out after a few tries. It's just patching holes, right?

In two days, everything I needed was ordered. Then came the long wait.

With nothing else to do, Xia Ning dragged Jiang Yi to the mountains to collect goods. They gathered firewood, trees, wild fruits—whatever they could find. They also bought a lot of dried seafood from nearby villagers.

"Jiang Yi, do you think the space is just for me to collect junk? We've collected so much since the rain disaster, why hasn't it leveled up yet?" She's already collected several batches of grain.

He definitely can't answer that.

After working diligently for half a month, Xia Ning was pleasantly surprised to find that her space had been upgraded again. This time, the black soil had expanded by at least 300 acres, and she could also enter the space.

She pulled Jiang Yi into the space. The two wolves, seeing their suddenly appearing relatives, pounced on them with delight, their tails wagging precariously.

A mule standing nearby snorted at them.

Emma, ​​we're finally inside. It's so comfortable here, the temperature is just right, and there's endless greenery. Xia Ning feels that the air inside is even fresher than outside.

"If space could teleport, it would be even better to send us to the beach!" Not only would it be convenient for her to travel back and forth, but who could catch her when she was selling goods!

One shouldn't be too greedy; she was already extremely satisfied with being able to join the family. From now on, she would never die again in the face of danger.

"Xiao Ning?"

Jiang Yi stared blankly at his surroundings. Xia Ning, still lost in her daydreams, hadn't noticed that the scene had changed.

"What? Don't you like it inside?"

"No, look where we are!"

In the space!

Where's the wolf? Where has it gone off to run wild again?

She looked up to find the wolf, her eyes filled with terror!

I'm a darling!

Where is she?

"Xiao Ning, where are we?"

Mother, come here!

Does she really want to go wherever she wants? Looking at the sea in front of her, she fell silent.

Holding Jiang Yi's hand, she closed her eyes and said, "I want to go back to the small courtyard in the prefectural city."

I opened my eyes, and I was still in the same place.

Is this a limit on the number, or does its effectiveness depend on fate?

After trying several times, it still didn't work, and Xia Ning was a little frustrated.

She has no idea where she was sent.

First, he took Jiang Yi back to the space, his face long and mournful. "We have to travel back tomorrow, and we don't even know how far it is?"

Jiang Yi didn't know how to comfort her.

"Take me back to my courtyard, my courtyard in the prefectural city...!"

Xia Ning closed her eyes and shouted a few words. When she opened her eyes again, she exclaimed, "Holy crap!"

Did she go home?

So, teleportation is only possible within space?

It seems she really has figured out how to teleport.

"Wait here for me, I'll try again."

Without waiting for his response, she immediately entered the space.

Jiang Yi was momentarily panicked when he saw the person suddenly disappear.

"Back to my home by the sea!"

Didn't move.

Is it not working again? Or is it too far?

"Go back outside the courtyard."

She really did appear outside the courtyard gate.

That's too far.

She wasn't in a hurry to measure how many miles it could move, not knowing the exact distance.

The way back was easy, and she could move back little by little.

The next day, they traversed the entire city, documented the uninhabited areas, and tested the distance they had traveled that night.

In one night, she figured out the area, about sixty or seventy li (approximately 30-35 kilometers). That was good; she was very satisfied. With this ability, she could do so much more!

"Jiang Yi, let's go to the outskirts of the city!" He asked casually, deciding where to go, even more so than she was.

They've explored the entire city, but not the suburbs.

Having heard that Zhao's army was located in the suburbs, Xia Ning decided to investigate.

I heard that those soldiers not only had to train, but also farm and raise pigs to be self-sufficient.

Because the people cannot support them.

Before even reaching the outskirts of the city, she saw rows of houses, all made of stone. She didn't understand why coastal cities preferred stone houses; wouldn't a typhoon destroy them?

The houses aren't tall, but they're large; since they're connected, we can skip building one wall.

How clever!

There were many people walking around the house, both men and women, but they didn't seem to care. It's not uncommon for locals to come to this area on weekdays.

Many more came to visit their relatives.
