The sky collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, I found myself transported to Nanluoguxiang.

Time flies, and it was summer of 1962 in the blink of an eye.

The three years of disaster have quietly passed.

For more than a year afterward, the people of Lijia Village were not affected much thanks to Li Kaixin's support.

It's worth mentioning that last summer, his younger brother Li Kai, younger sister Li Xiaoxiao, and Zhang Xiaohua all got into high school.

They are now high school sophomores.

The only regret is that Song Anran did not get into university.

Here at the transportation station.

The eldest apprentice, Zhou Zhiming, is now a deputy third-level driver. He is also a bit older than Li Kaixin and got married to Wang Fang a few months ago.

The second apprentice, Guo Liang, was promoted to a full-fledged driver last spring and is now a level-four driver.

Li Kaixin has done a lot in the past year and a half. When the disaster was at its worst, he couldn't bear to look at the victims.

They secretly placed all the grains, which had been stored in the secret realm for over the years, about ten million catties, into the square in Beijing.

The next day, the higher-ups were in an uproar because of this.

Martial law was imposed in Beijing, but they gradually abandoned it later because they couldn't find anyone.

In the end, they could only attribute it to overseas Chinese who secretly provided support.

......

In Lijia Village, the village's main canteen is now brightly decorated.

The faces of everyone in the village, young and old, men and women, were beaming with smiles.

Today is the day Li Kaixin and Song Anting officially get married.

In the past two years, as the clan leader (Third Grandfather Li Hongzhi) kept taking out grain, everyone began to have their own guesses.

However, they all kept their gratitude to themselves and did not express it.

It was evening, still in that room on the west side.

Song Anting and Li Kaixin, both dressed in bright red wedding robes, sat on the kang (a heated brick bed).

"Happy Brother, do I have to do it myself?" Song Anting turned her head and raised an eyebrow at the man beside her.

Over the past two years, Song Anting has been completely taken advantage of by this man. Except for the final step, he has done everything he should and shouldn't have done.

Since their engagement two years ago, the two have almost always slept together.

Li Kaixin didn't stand on ceremony and directly supported her waist with both hands, and the two of them slowly fell down.

With that, Song Anting let out a muffled groan, and red marks appeared on the bed sheet.

After a night of dragon dancing, the two finally fell into a deep sleep.

The next day, before dawn.

A subtle change has occurred within the secret realm.

The time flow rate, which had been stuck at 99 times, was changed to 100 times.

"Ding! Binding successful! Ding! Wake up, host!"

Two mechanical sounds suddenly rang in Li Kaixin's mind, startling him awake.

Li Kaixin was not happy about this; instead, she looked wary.

"System, you'd already left, what are you doing back here?"

"Hehe! Host, don't be so nervous, I have some good news for you." The system's voice carried a hint of human flattery.

"What is it?" Li Kaixin became even more vigilant, even a little uneasy.

Sure enough, the system voice sounded again shortly afterward.

"Host, you can go home as long as you give up everything you have now."

"System, don't even think about it!" Li Kaixin answered almost instinctively.

He has finally achieved the life he has today, how could he give it up so easily just because of a single sentence from the system?

"Host, so you don't miss your parents in the modern world?"

Upon hearing this, Li Kaixin's inner world calmed down. Since his transmigration, their presence had always been a source of worry for him.

The system in his mind knew the time was right, and immediately changed the subject: "However, I do have a way to have the best of both worlds, don't I?"

"System, tell me, tell me!" Li Kaixin's eyes lit up instantly.

"If you return that secret realm to me, I can give you a portal to travel between the two worlds and compensate you with a secret realm of the same size."

Upon hearing this, Li Kaixin calmed down again.

"System, isn't this a perk? I don't believe in free lunches."

After the words were spoken, the system's voice took a long time to ring out in my mind again.

"Host, let me be frank with you! The secret realm space I gave you before is a divine artifact that can be infinitely expanded. You should have felt the changes in your body from it, right?"

"System, if I change this secret realm space, will my physical fitness decline?" Li Kaixin asked again.

"No, your physical attributes were given to you by the secret realm space, and you won't take them away."

"Alright!" Li Kaixin nodded, his eyes hardening. "System, I'll trade with you!"

He asked that question just now, hoping against hope. Even if his physical condition declined, he would still change his clothes in order to see his parents.

"Excellent, host! Our transaction is complete! 3, 2, 1, unbinding successful!"

"Wait!" Li Kaixin shouted in his mind, but there was no response.

He was immediately stunned, and tried to suppress a low murmur.

"System, give me the thing already!"

However, he quickly rallied and immersed himself in the secret realm.

After carefully sensing it, I found that the flow of time inside was indeed only ten times faster, but fortunately, nothing in the space was missing.

It was at this moment that Li Kaixin finally noticed a large door standing at the edge of the land.

Suddenly, he couldn't help but cheer.

This noise woke up Song Anting, who was fast asleep.

She rubbed her eyes and asked in confusion, "Brother Kaixin, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, An Ting, you can go back to sleep. I was just too excited because I had a good dream." Li Kaixin gently patted Song An Ting's back and kissed her forehead.

"Oh!" Song Anting responded softly, then closed her eyes again.

Once she had fallen into a deep sleep, Li Kaixin put on her coat and went out.

Finding a secluded spot, he slipped into the secret realm and ran straight toward the door.

"Father, Mother, I'm here!!!"

After saying that, Li Kaixin disappeared behind the door.

......

--The End--
