Chapter 13 Crisis (please follow up)

The short-haired youth's face flushed with anger, but then he glanced at Xu Feng's hand and remembered the horror he had felt earlier.

"Tch, let's go!"

He spat out a mouthful of saliva, his face flushed, and turned away in a disheveled state.

The other person staggered after him, clearly frightened by Xu Feng's ruthlessness.

It looked extremely unpleasant.

Seeing the two leave, Xu Feng picked up his things and strode back.

Once inside, he put down the bag with slightly trembling hands.

After sitting on the edge of the bed for two minutes to calm down, Xu Feng nervously rubbed his legs: "Huff—huff—damn, you scared the hell out of me."

After catching his breath, he finally came to his senses.

He had never been in a fight with anyone since he was a child.

At most, they just talk, and that's mostly when they're at school.

Once he entered society, he learned what "maturity" meant.

But today.

An unexpected thought suddenly arose in his mind.
A strange anger and ruthlessness.

In fact, even Xu Feng himself was somewhat surprised when he made the move.

What does that feel like?

Xu Feng thought and thought, and then a sentence came to mind.

That is, "Having a sharp weapon, one's murderous intent arises spontaneously."

"No, those people have no reason to stop me just because of canned goods. Why would they pay such a high price for canned goods?"

Xu Feng quickly recalled many pre-war hoarding activities, and combined with his previous guesses, he sensed danger.

Is war coming? Or an attack? Or just a conflict?

Xu Feng muttered to himself, pondering the current situation.

This is, after all, a sinkhole in another world.

Although Tianyue Martial Arts University is very strong, these people are ultimately cannon fodder and "low-value assets".

They could be abandoned at any time if the situation changes.

How will the father and daughter protect themselves then?
Xu Feng's current strength is no match for those mutated creatures.

Throwing knives and swordsmanship are skills that need to be improved intensively, but it's impossible to make him a god overnight.

The Nine Stars Body Refining Technique requires meticulous practice and gradual accumulation over time.

All the growth opportunities he has right now are in these areas.

"No, I'm thinking wrong. I shouldn't be thinking about how to kill the enemy. Temporary evasion and retreat are the most efficient and useful things for me."

Xu Feng walked around the room and finally stopped by the bed.

He suddenly bent down and pushed his four-poster bed against the wall, revealing the wooden floor underneath.

"typical."

Upon thinking of tunnels, Xu Feng immediately thought of tunnel warfare.

When facing an enemy that is difficult to confront head-on, strategic retreat and guerrilla warfare are the smartest approaches.

Therefore, if a suitable tunnel can be dug inside the house, a basement can be built.

Not only can you take refuge inside when you encounter danger, but you can also use it to store valuables at other times!
"Like a cunning rabbit with three burrows, I can also prepare two more exits in case of emergency."

Once Xu Feng gets his mind going, inspiration keeps flowing.

Just do it.

After lunch, Xu Feng immediately got to work inside the house.

He first used a standard combat knife to cut a square opening in the wooden floor.

Then the toilet window, which was directly opposite the bed, was opened to create a passageway.

Xu Feng then picked up a shovel and started digging.

After nearly a month of training and improvement.

His strength and physical condition have greatly improved.

Digging holes is a physically demanding task, which is not a problem at all.

In just one afternoon, Xu Feng dug a three-meter-deep tunnel and dug out steps for going up and down during the excavation.

The only troublesome part is that the excavated soil and rocks need to be dumped from the toilet window into the backyard, and this process takes the most time.

When Xiao Dan got out of school, Xu Feng quickly took a shower and went to pick her up.

Coincidentally, the teacher who taught this afternoon was Lu Fei.

"Um, Ms. Lu, do you have time to chat for a bit?" In front of several parents, Xu Feng called Lu Fei aside.

Lu Fei frowned at him: "What is it?"

Although her opinion of Xu Feng had changed recently, she still harbored some coldness and disgust. Xu Feng glanced around, then said in a low voice, "Tell me the truth, has the battle situation changed recently?"

Lu Fei was slightly taken aback, then raised an eyebrow and asked, "Who told you that?"

"Observations show that people are starting to hoard canned goods in the trading area, there are more soldiers in the base, and the martial artists are starting to be fully armed."

Xu Feng said earnestly.

“Last night, someone came to my door asking if I had heard gunshots. They were three martial artists from the security team.”

All these signs can only mean one thing.

Xu Feng glanced at the parents chatting and laughing in the distance: "I know there are some things you can't say, so I won't ask any more questions."

All I want to know is, if something really happens, will we be abandoned?

Lu Fei glanced at Xiao Dan, then lowered her head and remained silent.

Silence can sometimes say a lot.

Xu Feng sighed: "I understand."

He pulled Xiaodan into his arms: "If we encounter danger, can I leave Xiaodan with you?"

Lu Fei raised her head this time and said affirmatively, "Yes."

Xu Feng breathed a sigh of relief and was about to express his gratitude when he heard Xiao Dan say resolutely, "Even if I die, I want to die with you."

Xu Feng and Lu Fei looked down at the same time and saw the little girl with tears in her eyes, looking at Xu Feng firmly, and saying with her head up.

Lu Fei turned her head away, not daring to look.

Xu Feng looked at his daughter and suddenly understood everything: "Okay, let's go home."

Xiao Dan held Xu Feng's hand tightly and smiled.

Xu Feng bent down, picked up the little girl, and strode towards the outside of the base.

"Um, Mr. Xu, are you home tonight?"

Just then, Lu Fei suddenly called out to Xu Feng.

The parents around them looked at the two of them with some surprise.

Xu Feng turned around in surprise: "Teacher Lu, is something the matter?"

Lu Fei calmly replied, "Yes, I need to discuss some things with you regarding Xiao Dan's studies. Please wait for me at home tonight."

"Okay, see you tonight." Xu Feng nodded, though he was still puzzled.

When she got home, Xiao Dan was very curious about the tunnel in her house.

"Aren't you afraid?" Xu Feng asked as he dug a hole underground.

“I’m not afraid,” Xiao Dan said, holding her bowl and sitting on a small stool, looking down at Xu Feng. “You picked me out of a pile of corpses, and I wasn’t afraid then, so why should I be afraid now?”

Xu Feng: "."

He leaped onto the ground in a few quick movements, carrying a basin of soil: "Speak properly from now on. Who taught you all that 'der' nonsense?"

Xiao Dan's thoughts immediately returned to the classroom, and she said with a smile, "Zhou Tianyu! He talks about these things all the time, it's so funny!"
Oh, by the way, we learned about gene cultivation techniques in class today. The teacher said we can only start cultivating them when we're adults.

As Xiao Dan recounted the interesting things that happened that day, Xu Feng became even more efficient with his hands.

He soon discovered that there was a skill involved in digging holes!

[Digging Holes - Skilled (598/1000)]

"Does this mean that if I keep digging, I can become a master of hole digging?"

Hsu Feng found it amusing to think about.

It's 8:30 at night.

Someone knocked on the alloy door.

Xu Feng looked through the peephole and saw that it was Lu Fei, then he opened the peephole.

"What is it that you need to come to my house to talk about?" Xu Feng asked in surprise.

As soon as Lu Fei entered the room, she threw a book on the table.

Then two more glass test tubes were placed down.

This time, Lu Fei didn't take off her coat. She just hugged Xiao Dan and glanced at the tunnel Xu Feng had dug: "If nothing happens, consider these things as a loan to you. You can pay me back later."

If anything happens, this is my compensation to you on behalf of Tianyue Martial Arts University.

This is confidential, and I don't know the exact date, but it should be within a week.

Xu Feng nodded and glanced at the books on the table.

The only words written on it are "Dong Nian" (动念), which seems to be some kind of secret manual.

He didn't recognize the test tube.

"What is this?" Xu Feng picked up the test tube and looked at it. It contained about several tens of milliliters of light blue liquid.

"The Qi and Blood Elixir, specially made for martial artists, originally costs 15,000 per vial," Lu Fei said calmly.

Xu Feng: "(ω)!!?"
