Chapter 15: Neighbors Is Better than Far Family

The angry bees flew back and forth for a long time around the place where the thief had just stopped. They were filled with confusion. Where was she?

At this moment, Xiaoxiao was holding the beehive stored in the space and looking around. What she saw was a motionless colorful world. The blue sky, white clouds, and a familiar round egg on the green lawn.

She suddenly remembered the scene when she took it from the old residence. At that time, she was so angry that she took it, but she did not have the chance to take out the egg after that since her mom would beat her up.

This space was not bad. After being placed for so long, the eggs were still fresh. It would be very convenient for her to go out for a trip in the future.

Now that it had the function of letting her enter and leave, she could hide in her space if she encountered any danger. No one would be able to find her.

The more she praised, the more excited the space became. At this moment, it could not help but praise itself.

[Master, that’s not all my functions. If you continue to work hard to make delicacies in exchange for points, I can keep upgrading. Not only can I open the seed shop and provide the various seeds you need, but I can also open fields. In the future, if you want to eat anything, just plant it here. The variety is good, and the growth cycle is short!]

Huh, Xiaoxiao was not sleepy anymore when she heard its words. She asked, “How short exactly?”

The mysterious space kept them in suspense. “It’s beyond your imagination!”

It even hooked up with Xiaoxiao. “If you want to know, you have to collect more delicacies and let me level up quickly.”

What an old-fashioned marketing method. As Xiaoxiao despised it, she fell into the trap and started to think of a good way to upgrade the space quickly.

She thought that the bees outside were probably tired from searching. Xiaoxiao cut a small piece from the beehive and threw it into the distance when she flashed out of space. Then, she ran in the opposite direction.

The familiar smell attracted the bees, and most flew towards the small beehive. However, some paused for a while before continuing to chase after Xiaoxiao.

Xiaoxiao ran for a while and hid in the space for a while. When she came out again, she threw a small piece of beehive. When only about half the beehive left, a few bees followed her. It was not far from returning to the village. Xiaoxiao checked her condition and took a deep breath. She hugged the beehive and ran out of the space with all her might.

Rong Yan was bored and familiarizing himself with the environment in the village. The guards had yet to contact their trusted people, let alone find the traitor who betrayed them and caused him to be in danger. They could only hide here.

From afar, he saw a tightly wrapped figure rushing out of the forest by the roadside. When it passed by him, it even shouted, “Run, run, there are bees behind us!”

With great difficulty, he could tell from her voice that it was Xiaoxiao. She pulled his sleeve and started running before he could ask what had happened.

She pulled Rong Yan into a haystack without thinking when they passed a haystack.

Not many bees left, especially since there were so many different smells after they returned to the village. They quickly confirmed that they had lost their target and slowly dispersed. At this moment, Xiaoxiao let go of Rong Yan and crawled out of the haystack to pat her chest. “You scared me to death.”

Rong Yan: … To be honest, I was the scared one.

Looking down in confusion, he saw a few conspicuous bags on her arm and the back of her hand. Was she… stung by a bee? Where did she go? Why did she provoke a bee?

Xiaoxiao didn’t say anything. He thought he was a gentleman, so he didn’t ask. However, before he went home, he smelled his hands in confusion. Why did it seem a little sweet? It couldn’t be the smell of that girl, right?

Blushing, Rong Yan hurriedly extended his hand and quickly put it into the basin, splashing water everywhere.

At this moment, the guard, Yun Yi, returned with the gift. “Master, we’ve caught it!”

Rong Yan immediately retracted his hand and wiped it with a handkerchief.

Yun Yi looked at the water in the room with a puzzled expression. Rong Yan snorted. “It’s all because you suddenly shouted and I got scared. What did you hunt that caused such a big commotion?”

Yun Yi led his master to the courtyard. A wild boar that was too big was tied up and hung upside down on a pole. It was unknown if it was dead or alive. Yun Yi introduced it expectantly, “Master, this pig looks very delicious and very strong!”

Rong Yan sighed expressionlessly. Was it dependent on a pig to see if it was delicious?

His gaze couldn’t help but drift towards the Zhao family’s kitchen. It depended on the chef!

Some people could only make food for pigs when they got the freshest meat dishes.

However, some people could turn something only pigs could eat into delicious food.

He thought he was smart and had thought of many ways to choose Zhao Hu’s family, the most flawless target. However, everything was well thought out. The only mistake was that the Zhao family’s wife’s culinary skills were unbelievable!

They could not often go to the county to eat to maintain their image of fleeing. They could only find an opportunity to buy refreshments to pass the time.

The past was unbearable to look back on. Rong Yan looked at the pig, then at the guard, and then at the kitchen. Ultimately, he shifted his gaze to the Ning family’s house, not far away.

There was a very good saying in the countryside. It was better to be close than distant relatives.
