Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 842 Extreme Apocalypse 6

"That's true, that's true. So we can take whatever we want, and how big is the space?"

Oh right, Li Xinyan hadn't had a chance to ask that yet either.

She looked at Ruan Chutong and asked, "Sister Tong, how big is your space?"

Only Li Yanjing looked a little confused. Wasn't anyone going to explain to him what space was?

Listen to what the others are saying, and combine that with Ruan Chutong's actions just now.

Maybe there's a hidden place where people can store things?

"The space is very large." She didn't intend to say exactly how large.

Seeing the confusion in Li Yanjing's eyes, she kindly explained to him: "Space is a container without any physical objects."

Her explanation was simple and clear, and Li Yanjing nodded to indicate that she fully understood.

"Brother, it's your own fault for never reading novels before. Now you're paying the price, haha."

Li Xinyan smiled with a hint of schadenfreude.

Li Yanjing glanced at her but didn't argue with her.

A few years ago, after I returned from the army, I took over the family company. I had no time to read novels.

Gao Mingcheng laughed too: "Your brother just lives a very boring life and doesn't like to talk much."

Seeing the two of them like this, Li Yanjing reminded them, "You can't tell anyone about the space. I don't want anyone other than our two families to know."

Ruan Chutong's revelation of her secret demonstrates her trust in them.

If such a secret were to become known to others, it would certainly arouse their covetousness.

Thinking of this, he added, "Don't use this ability in front of outsiders."

“I know,” Ruan Chutong nodded.

Li Xinyan assured, "We know that I will definitely not expose Sister Tong's secret."

"Don't you know me? I definitely won't tell anyone, not even the two old men in my family."

Gao Mingcheng would not take the initiative to talk to the two of them, nor would he mention Ruan Chutong's matter at all; he would pretend not to know anything about it.

As for what happens afterward, if the two families find out they've been living together day and night, the old men won't blame him for his decision.

Ruan Chutong listened to their conversation and took out an iron pot: "Aren't you hungry? Let's cook something and eat before we go back."

Then, she took out several packets of instant noodles and a large bottle of mineral water.

She hasn't eaten instant noodles in a long time, and she doesn't usually eat them.

It would take quite a while to get back, and she didn't want to go hungry.

"I've been out searching for supplies all day. Apart from breakfast this morning, I haven't eaten anything. I'm really hungry."

Li Xinyan touched her stomach: "I'm going to find something to start a fire."

Li Yanjing and Gao Mingcheng had already started, going to find some things that could be burned and bringing them over.

Soon, after the fire was lit and the water boiled, the instant noodles were put into the boiling water.

As soon as the spice packet was put in, the aroma filled the air.

Li Xinyan looked at the pot and swallowed hard: "Things that I would never have even looked at when I went to the supermarket before, now I actually think they're delicious."

Ruan Chutong also felt that instant noodles tasted pretty good when eaten occasionally, so she took out four more bowls and chopsticks.

After Gao Mingcheng took it, he exclaimed, "Having a space is so convenient. Otherwise, even if I knew what was there, I would have to search for it for ages."

Li Yanjing also felt it was convenient, and felt even more strongly that this secret should not be known to anyone, otherwise Ruan Chutong would be in danger.

When he got back, he had to remind his family not to show any unusual behavior.

He looked at Ruan Chutong and said, "You should take something out and bring it back with you later. It doesn't seem right for us to come back empty-handed after being out all day."

"Okay." He didn't say anything, but he also planned to go back and get some things later; it was necessary to keep it a secret.

If you take too much stuff, others will covet it; just take out a little.

After finishing her instant noodles, Ruan Chutong took out a watermelon.

Li Xinyan's eyes lit up: "Watermelon? Sister Tong, where did you find it?"

"There's a cafeteria on my floor; I found it in the refrigerator."

Whether or not, from the moment you expose your own space, you have complete control over what you have.

"No wonder it still feels icy to the touch. It's just right that the weather isn't too cold yet, and there's a fire burning inside, so it's a bit warm. It's perfect for eating icy watermelon."

After receiving their watermelons, everyone focused on eating them.

Li Yanjing took a bite of watermelon, still thinking about the things she had collected that day.

"The things we found were mostly daily necessities and snacks; the shops selling survival supplies were basically all flooded."

Starting today, the water has already reached the third floor.

The shops that used to be on the roadside are mostly submerged in water, so you have to wade through the water to find many things.

Li Xinyan nodded: "We don't have diving equipment right now, and we can't spend too long searching underwater."

Gao Mingcheng's thoughts diverged: "The water in the city has already merged with the sea. I wonder if there have been sharks or something similar in the past few days."

I was somewhat confident when I went into the water a couple of days ago, but now it's really hard to say.

Ruan Chutong asked directly, "Do you know where there are diving equipment stores?"

The original owner had never paid attention to this before, so he didn't know where to find it.

She does have it in her online space, but she said that several sets of diving equipment were found in this office building today.

She thought it was a bit far-fetched, so she decided to go find it anyway.

When the time comes, you can go into the water yourself and have any reason to say whatever you want, even if you only received one set, you can say you received ten sets.

Li Xinyan raised her hand: "I know, there's a diving equipment store on Huaiyang Road. I even bought a set when I passed by before."

"Is it far from here?" Li Yanjing asked.

"It's not far, it only takes about ten minutes to get there."

"Then let's go later, and we can still get home before dark."

"Who would go into the water? My swimming skills are average and I don't know how to breathe properly. I'm afraid I won't be able to breathe before we even get there."

Li Xinyan decided that she would take the opportunity to learn how to swim and practice holding her breath.

Gao Mingcheng said, "My swimming skills are pretty good, I can go in."

“I’ll go down alone; you guys just wait up here,” Ruan Chutong said.

“You can’t go alone, it’s too dangerous. Two people can move faster and know what’s going on. I’ll go down with Gao Mingcheng.”

Li Yanjing said several times that since he brought everyone out, he had to ensure everyone's safety.

Gao Mingcheng nodded: "Yes, Chu Tong, you don't need to go down."

Ruan Chutong didn't compete with them; she let her strength speak for itself.

“I’m a good swimmer, and I can swim fast even in dangerous situations. I can stay underwater for an hour without any problem. Plus, I can pack my things easily, which is a waste of time for you guys to make several trips to get them.”

She can breathe freely in the water, so she should be the safest.

If I don't go myself, how can I find a reason to collect more diving equipment and other items?

Upon hearing this, no one had anything to say about her having a space to store things.

After all, if Ruan Chutong went, she could collect the items very quickly, which would save them a lot of trouble compared to them going.
