Xu Zhuzhu and her family stared blankly at the kettle bubbling with hot water, and it took them a long time to recover.

They came back looking so fresh and radiant?

You're back in just a "whoosh"?

Xu Zhuzhu was still excited and gave her clever father a bear hug.

I firmly believe that a high forehead signifies intelligence.

Zhang He and Xu An were still in shock when they asked Xu Zhuzhu to demonstrate again. So Xu Zhuzhu teleported them to the bamboo forest and then teleported back. This time, her mother and brother finally believed that this was not a dream.

Seeing the mother and her two children vanish into thin air and reappear by the fire, Xu Wenjie calmly greeted them.

"I'm home?"

Xu Zhuzhu chuckled. Her father was indeed more knowledgeable. Ever since he learned about the garbage dump, he could calm down immediately whenever he saw something new or unusual.

Her father not only helped her develop many functions of the garbage station, but also calmly and rationally made Xu Zhuzhu reflect on the subsequent side effects after each incredible event.

For example, with Xu Wenjie's reminder and after several attempts, Xu Zhuzhu discovered that she could only teleport to places she had been before, and only within a radius of ten miles.

It's impossible for him to teleport to the town, and as for returning to Qingzhou, that's out of the question.

However, after calming down, Xu Zhuzhu suddenly felt that her arms were weak and powerless.

She wanted to sit down as soon as she saw the stool right in front of her, but before she could even sit down, her legs went weak, her body swayed, and she lost her balance, falling towards Xu An who was sitting next to her.

When Xu An saw Xu Zhuzhu suddenly fall towards him, he didn't even have time to stand up. He hurriedly reached out to catch his sister, but the two were only a little over ten years old. Who could support the other's weight?

There was a loud bang.

Xu An, along with the stool and Zhu Zhu he was holding, all fell to the ground. Before falling, Xu An held Xu Zhu Zhu tightly, protecting her in his small arms.

"An'an! Zhuzhu!"

Zhang He, who was washing vegetables, heard the noise, turned around, and screamed in fright.

She hurriedly tried to stand up to check on the two children, but in her haste, she didn't pay attention and tripped over the overturned stool, knocking over the basin of water used for washing vegetables as well...

"Ouch!"

Zhang He also fell heavily.

Xu Wenjie, who was repairing bamboo by a fire outside the door, rushed in after hearing a commotion inside!

"He Niang! What happened!"

Xu Wenjie lifted the curtain and saw the mother and her two children, all sprawled out and in disarray. He felt a pang of heartache and quickly helped them up.

"Is everything okay?"

Zhang He and Xu An shook their heads; they were fine.

It was Xu Zhuzhu. She was half-closing her eyes, looking dazed and confused. It took her a while to recover, but her limbs were still weak and limp.

Seeing this, Xu Zhuzhu's clever father, Xu Wenjie, guessed that Xu Zhuzhu had probably used too much energy to perform the flash, which was why she was exhausted.

As the saying goes, every gain has its loss.

Therefore, Xu Wenjie and Zhang He set a rule for Xu Zhuzhu: she should not appear unless absolutely necessary.

Xu Zhuzhu cherishes her life, and she obediently nodded. But when is it necessary? Naturally, it's when you're trying to escape.

Because they were cutting bamboo, they didn't go to the garbage station to clean up the trash all day. When they used their spatial teleportation earlier, Xu Zhuzhu glanced around and saw that there wasn't much trash today, so she didn't plan to go there.

However, after her father finished eating, he said that he would just send him there himself.

Xu Zhuzhu realized that going to the garbage station had become a regular routine for her father before bedtime.

In an instant, she suddenly felt that her father was like an NPC, just helping her complete a mission, and then she felt that maybe she herself was an NPC...

Upon thinking about it, she instantly felt her hair stand on end and broke out in a cold sweat. She quickly shook her head and banished the thought from her mind.

It was her mother who overheard and advised, "You've been cutting bamboo all day and you're tired, so let's not go for now. Laozi is magnanimous and I don't think he'll blame us..."

So her father put down the basket.

Xu Wenjie was indeed quite tired.

Xu Zhuzhu was also very tired. She slept until Xu Wenjie and the others finished lunch and she still hadn't woken up. She didn't even smell the corn her mother roasted for her. It was only when Zhang He pinched her nostrils that Xu Zhuzhu was woken up by the smell.

"If you don't get up soon, my brother and I will have to share this roasted corn!"

Zhang He teased, and Xu Zhuzhu finally got up, dressed, washed her face, and rinsed her mouth.

As for rinsing my mouth, I didn't really use anything; I just washed my mouth with water and then rubbed my teeth with a blade of grass.

Before they fled, their family used tea leaves to rinse their mouths, which were bitter and Xu Zhuzhu didn't like them.

By the time Xu Zhuzhu had finished lunch, Xu Wenjie had almost finished building the bamboo fence.

When Xu Zhuzhu went outside, she found that each bamboo stalk was inserted into the soil more than ten centimeters deep, with sharpened tips, and was also secured in the middle with bamboo, looking very sturdy.

Xu Zhuzhu clicked her tongue in admiration, surprised that her father had such a skill.

“When your grandmother was tending the vegetable garden, I was the one who helped her. Now I can say that I’m putting my skills to good use.”

Xu Zhuzhu chuckled; her grandmother was indeed very capable.

In this way, the family's safety was somewhat guaranteed.

After resting for a while, the family went to the garbage station again.

Because of what happened yesterday, Xu Zhuzhu's impression of the garbage station improved significantly. As for being stabbed in the back by a stainless steel spoon, she reluctantly forgave the garbage can that was used for other garbage.

So the family held hands and, with Xu Zhuzhu's help, arrived at the garbage station again.

The moment they opened their eyes, everyone gasped.

In just one day, the garbage piled up all over the garbage station. Not only the garbage cans, but also a lot of miscellaneous garbage was piled up outside.

Although the winters here aren't that cold, the sour smell of rotting food still made Xu Zhuzhu feel nauseous, and she secretly gagged several times...

Just then, an aunt and a young girl in fluffy pajamas came down carrying a bunch of things and threw them right in front of Xu Zhuzhu's family.

Although the people in the two spaces could not see each other, Xu Zhuzhu's family remained perfectly still in perfect unison.

"Why throw all this stuff away when you're just moving? It's not even spoiled. Look at this peanut oil, it's never even been opened!"

The aunt kept muttering to herself.

Pointing to a pile of things the girl had thrown away—pots and pans, a kitchen knife, a fruit knife, and a whole bottle of unopened peanut oil—he asked.

Xu Zhuzhu was overjoyed; it was exactly what she wanted.

She had just been complaining a few days ago that the dishes were all bland and tasteless, and then someone threw away a whole bucket of oil.

Just as she was secretly pleased, the girl's voice, fading into the distance, drifted back, "...Mom! I heard that this brand of oil is transported in tanker trucks. We'd better not eat it; who knows what might happen!"

Xu Zhuzhu's family stared at the bucket of shiny oil, which shimmered in the sunlight, and finally decided to put it in their basket.

Xu Wenjie remained unusually silent at this moment. Xu Zhuzhu thought about it and realized that her father might have made a new discovery.

After yesterday's events, Xu Wenjie wondered if Xu Zhuzhu could use this place to send them to where they wanted to go, which meant that Xu Zhuzhu could control this place, or that she could move anything in it.

Xu Zhuzhu instantly understood her father's meaning, silently focusing her mind and repeatedly repeating a single instruction in her head.

Please sort your trash yourself!

Please sort your trash yourself!

...............

Suddenly, the plastic bottle flew high into the air with a "whoosh" and landed precisely in the recycling bin.

? ! ! ! ?

What stupid things had she done before? What kind of miserable life had she lived? Xu Zhuzhu was dumbfounded, her jaw agape for a long time.

"Could it be that I have gained immortal power?" Zhang He clasped his hands together in great joy.

Xu An was also surprised. He pointed to another piece of trash and asked Xu Zhuzhu to guide it to the correct trash can. After they succeeded, the brother and sister held hands, jumped around, and laughed loudly.

Xu Wenjie remained as rational as ever. Learning from yesterday's experience, he kept a close eye on Xu Zhuzhu's physical condition. "There are gains and losses. Immortal power cannot be acquired overnight. Zhuzhu, how are you feeling? Is there anything uncomfortable on your body?"

Xu Zhuzhu jumped up and down twice and spun around a few times to show that she was very strong.

Xu Wenjie was relieved to let Xu Zhuzhu direct the garbage sorting. It required full concentration, and Xu Zhuzhu was already sweating profusely after only half of it was sorted.

Zhang He felt sorry for her and wiped her sweat while advising, "Let's stop here for today, Mother will take care of the rest."

Xu Wenjie nodded, having roughly figured out Xu Zhuzhu's limit at one time. So, Xu Wenjie and Zhang He buried themselves in the trash again, while his brother continued to tidy up new things on the side.

Exhausted, Xu Zhuzhu took a break and discovered that even after so much time had passed, the progress bar for the hazardous waste bin was still not half full, while the other waste bins were almost full again.

Remembering the exceptional treatment the garbage station had given her yesterday and today, Xu Zhuzhu suddenly had the idea to fill it up.

So after Xu Zhuzhu went in with a pile of dog poop, the slow progress bar in the trash can was finally about to fill up!

Watching the dog poop disappear little by little, Xu Zhuzhu felt that the progress bar was going up a bit too fast this time. However, to be on the safe side, Xu Zhuzhu didn't kick it this time, to avoid the trash can getting emotionally involved in its work.

The whole family waited with bated breath, and then a flash of black light appeared in the bin, and another shiny object appeared in the trash can.

chap!

Xu Zhuzhu, with her fiery temper, couldn't hold back and kicked the trash can again.
