The water was still transparent, but a light layer of oil floated on the surface.

Although there is no intrusion from dust and dirt, the human body is constantly secreting oil. Taking a bath once a year is the time when they find it difficult to clean themselves.

The women in the village took fish skins and wooden boards, found a small pool, put up a simple fence around it, and started lining up to take a bath.

Russell took the remaining mature men to the top of the magma cave entrance and placed the snowfish at his feet around them. When the ice water melted naturally and the time was enough, the fish meat would mature.

Xiao Huihui and Xiao Bai came running back and forth, looking at the movements in their hands and tilting their heads.

There was an extra metal container on the ground.

"...Hui Hui, are you lending this to us too?"

"Ouch!" Xiao Huihui shouted and ran away with Xiao Bai.

Russell and the person behind him looked at each other, but before they looked back, they saw two more people running in from outside the passage, followed by a small yellow shadow.

"This is?"

Ah Wei came over and said, "This is Xiao Huang, a god."

"Woof woof woof!" Xiao Huang happily bit his tail, circled around the large hot spring pool, kicked hard with his hind legs, and flew into the air.

With a pop, the little body fell into the pool.

Russell and others discovered that Xiao Huang was as flexible as a fish in the water, and the hair on his body was like fine grass in deep water, floating softly and densely along the current.

In his peripheral vision, Ah Wei saw a flash of light in Xiao Huihui's eyes. When he came to his senses, Xiao Huihui and Xiao Bai had already entered the hot spring water, swimming back and forth happily like free fish.

"Let's continue preparing lunch. There are still many things to do." Russell smiled knowingly.

Only when the two giant snowfish were roasted into rotten flesh did Xiao Huihui and the others smell the aroma.

"Woof woof." Annoyance flashed in Xiao Huang's eyes. He looked at the fried fish made by these natives in metal containers. His mind moved. There was a huge new metal pot on the ground, and then there were three bowls made of stones. Simple wooden spoons and chopsticks.

"Huh... ow!" Xiao Huihui sneezed, shook off the water on his body, shouted, and ran away with Xiao Bai and Xiao Huang.

Russell and others were left looking at each other.

"...Here, we are lucky that the gods lent us containers for cooking. What does this mean?"

"Maybe the food inside is for us?" Awei guessed in a low voice. He smelled the familiar aroma and knew that he had drank several large bowls of broth yesterday.

"I'll ask the village chief." A villager scratched his head and said.

Before he could take a few steps, Anan and others ran over after taking a shower and putting on clean fish skin, followed by Kamei and others who were curious to watch the fun.

"What is this?" Kamei looked at the container with the lid, and his eyes fell on the dark layer of materials below, which could only be left after burning with firewood.

"I know!" Abe raised his hands and stepped forward, "This is bone soup made by the gods. Yesterday, grandpa and we drank several large bowls of it! We also ate white flour cakes!"

"Is this the one you brought back yesterday!?" Kamei shouted, saliva secreting from his mouth.

"Yeah! Is this what the gods left behind?" Abe nodded heavily.

"Yes, Xiao Huang put this down and ran away."

"Roselle..." A deep and old voice sounded, and everyone looked forward, their expressions shocked, "Village Chief."

Castle nodded, "Let's share the soup with everyone. The containers will be cleaned in the afternoon. Let Awei and Abe send them back together. Take some things with you to thank the gods."

Everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

This metal container is huge, but the villagers have a large population, with more than 50 people, and one person can only share less than half a bowl.

The village gives priority to the two babies and the strong fighting spirit. The children drink to their full, the men drink a big bowl, and the others end up queuing up to drink half a bowl.

Even so, everyone had extremely happy smiles on their faces.

There was not only soup in the soup, but also meat that they had never eaten before. The meat had become shredded, and everyone had a little taste. There were also huge fish with no bones inside. They fished out the bones and kept them, planning to find a way to exchange them for a container later so that they could cook them themselves.

You can drink the rest of the fish soup as you like, and everyone is full.

"Grandpa, what do you think this is?" Abe held a white bone in his hand, carefully avoiding the sharp edges on it, and lightly scratched the wall, revealing a small gap in it.

Ten adult men in the village sit in a circle, and women line up outside to take a shower or pack their 'clothes'.

Castle was too full to eat and was a little dazed at the moment. He looked at his actions and smiled softly: "This is a weapon given to us by the gods. It is sharper than a dagger. Your father has already used it. It is very easy to use."

Kahe took the bone knife from Abe's hand and said with admiration, "With this, we think it will be much easier to open food holes in the mountains. We just happened to find a lot of glacial lakes when we came here, and the fish in them were better than those under the mountains. The fish in the ice lake are too big!”

Russell nodded, "That's right, Dad, this thing is so easy to use, why don't we ask the gods to give us a few more, so that it will be easier for us to produce in the future."

Thinking of a lot of repetitive work in the future, if you have this weapon, you can get twice the result with half the effort.

Maybe it wouldn't be a dream for them to settle down in the mountains, so they no longer have to search for a resort every year.

For a moment, everyone's hearts became hot.

As the village chief, Castle had already begun to consider this possibility when he met Wen Xia.

He groaned, "We can't ask for it in vain. The gods have said that they support bartering. We only have some ice crystals and snow fish in our hands. The gods don't care about other things. We need to find a way to change a cooking container first. , come back with this weapon. Just in time, Abe and Awei will go there later, Kahe and Axel will come with you."

When Xiao Huihui and others came back, Wen Xia had just finished lunch.

Seeing three dumplings like melted snow appearing at the door, she was so surprised that she thought she saw a beast in the snow.

The bodies of the three little ones were covered with a layer of transparent white crystals, and the outer layer of their mouths was covered with a layer of snowflakes. When I rubbed it with my hands, I discovered that it was because the water dripping from the wet hair had frozen.

Don't think about it, it was probably caused by playing with water.

Wen Xia put their lunch in a bowl, put two large pieces of sausage in it, and asked them to eat while warming themselves by the fire. He carried the newly made hoe to the land on the left.

There is a septic tank and livestock on the right side of the thatched house, so the location for the ice cellar was naturally chosen on the left.

She walked about 500 meters along the direction of the stream, found a fairly flat area, and tried to hoe with the new hoe first. This was what she did on a whim. She chose a thigh bone from a star beast. There was naturally a hole in the middle. By inserting a piece of wood of suitable size into it and fixing it, it could be used as a simple hoe.

The sharp blade tip lifts up a thin layer of soil with gentle force, which is much less labor-intensive than the original iron hoe.

The difficulty in digging a hole is never the digging action, but the removal of all the soil inside.

Everything that involves moving things is not difficult for Wen Xia.

With good tools, the work can be done with half the effort. A pit more than one meter deep was quickly dug, and the soil in it was placed in the space ring to be used to pile soil for planting crops.

The soil in the Nameless Realm was extremely fertile, and there were no disgusting bugs in it. He didn't have to worry about all kinds of centipedes, cockroaches, crickets, etc. coming out halfway through digging, which made him breathe a sigh of relief unconsciously.

You must know that the most painful thing about doing farm work when you were a child was harvesting sweet potatoes and catching white worms, digging peanuts and crawling out swarms of centipedes and ants, which gave people goosebumps all over their bodies.

But time flies, and I have grown up after all.

Wen Xia smiled bitterly and thought of her parents again. She didn't know if they were okay now or if they were sad because of her leaving.

"Boss Wen! Boss Wen!"

"Is Boss Wen here? Huihui, where has Boss Wen gone?"

Several people shouted at the door, interrupted by the howl of the wind and snow.

Little Huihui lay on the ground and licked his tongue, glanced at the four sculptures at the door of Wuming Realm, stretched out his neck and howled: "Ouch~~"

Wen Xia came back to her senses, walked back with the hoe in her hand, stepped over the fence, passed through the thatched house and came to the gate of Wumingjing.

"I remember your name is Awei. Are you Abe? Who are these two?" She pointed at the two people behind them with evasive eyes. They still had terrifying faces. After taking off the mask, they revealed a pair of eyes that were even bigger than Awei's. , now he raised his head to look at her, and then quickly looked back, looking extremely cautious.

"This is my dad Kahe, and this is Uncle Russell. They don't have any ill intentions, they just feel that your identity is..."

identity? Do you think it is disrespectful to the gods to look directly?

Wen Xia frowned and spoke softly, "I think I have always been on to something. I am not a god, and you don't have to be so cautious about me... Maybe we can be good neighbors for a while. By the way, you are here this time. ?”

Behind her, Kahe and Russell looked at each other, deliberately avoiding looking directly at the god, and focused their gaze on the flames behind her, their hearts beating like drums.

The two squatted down and pushed something on the ground forward.

The former said: "Boss Wen... we are here to return your container, as well as these snow fish, as a thank you for giving us food and lending us the container."

In his mind, the mountain was completely covered with green. There was no snow or strong wind, and it looked so natural and gentle.

They were more in awe of this sudden god, unlike their sons and nephews who looked directly at the god.

There are two metal containers on the ground, one is for bone soup, and the other should be given by Xiao Huihui and the others. The two containers are filled with snowfish frozen like ice bars, and the whole body is snow-white. From the deep sea.

At the bottom, several blue stones could be seen, each one less than the size of a fist. She had seen these people use it last night, and it should be a kind of solid fuel.

One of Wen Xia's goals is to collect resources from this world, so he is naturally happy to accept them.

But is it a little too much?

"Thank you for your kindness. I can take half of it and you can take the rest back."

Their packs are large, and the food can keep them going for a few more days.

Ka and the others felt her kindness and were moved in their hearts. They blinked and shook their heads.

"Boss Wen, actually, we want to exchange some supplies with you... It's the weapon Xiao Huang sent. I don't know if you still have it here."

"We want to settle down in the mountains. If we have this weapon, we don't have to run down the mountains and have adventures again next year," Awei explained.

Wen Xia probably knew what they were thinking, and nodded understandingly: "I can make you some tools, but you need to exchange them for supplies."

There is no such thing as a free lunch. These precious bones should be a cherished resource in every world.

She is not without empathy. The bone knife she gave them before was treated as a gift. Even if they don't change it, they can live easier with that knife.

"That knife is called a bone knife. I have limited resources here. One knife costs ten snowfish. The one I have in my hand is called a hoe. It is made of the same material and made of wood. If you want, I can give you a few in exchange. "

[-]. Ten snowfish can be exchanged for a sharp weapon?

Both Russell and Russell were shocked. Such a precious thing only requires ten cheap snowfish. Isn't it equivalent to giving it away for free?
They were extremely uneasy, not happy about having sex for free, but worried about whether this was a test given to them by the gods, and whether there would be any bad consequences if they accepted it like this. Or it might leave a bad impression on the gods.

"...This is not good..."

Wen Xia frowned, secretly wondering if the other party thought his price was too expensive?

This was because they had limited resources, so she yelled at them.

Sensing the evil look in the god's eyes, Kahe shook his body and waved his hand quickly: "No, Russell means that the price you want is too low. This bone knife is so sharp, but it is a rare weapon..."

"Oh~" Wen Xia suddenly realized, "It doesn't matter. You decide first. If you have the ability, you can buy other grains or green plants from me."

what?
At this time, the four people's eyes widened again, and they looked weird and scary.

Wen Xia silently took a few steps back, rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, and coughed dryly.

Abe stepped forward: "Boss Wen, you mean, you mean we can raise these plants behind you?"

"This is the power of the gods!" Awei exclaimed.

"Of course, as long as the price you give me is high, and I have it here, I can consider exchanging it with you...even including curing your illnesses." Wen Xia pointed to their arms, revealing countless unhealed wounds on their dark skin. Blood scars, joints deformed due to lack of nutrients.

The older the humans here get, the more horribly deformed they look. This is probably due to the lack of various vitamins, resulting in alienation and mutation.

Because the two children who were the only ones born in the village looked normal.

The earth breeds life, and the various foods humans consume contain various elements that the human body needs, among which vitamins are also an important part. Lack of vitamin A will cause symptoms such as night blindness and dry skin. Lack of vitamin B will cause blistering at the corners of the mouth in mild cases. In severe cases, it will affect cell function, nervous system function, etc.

Humans in this world may take vitamins, but the amount is far from enough.
