After digging in the cave of the underground river, Zhao Guoer felt a little tired despite not having much work to do, but Lei Jing was still energetic. This made Zhao Guoer start to wonder whether the river water had a stimulant-like effect?

If so, several hours have passed. Logically speaking, Lei Jing should have symptoms of general weakness. But no, she thinks he is still in good condition. Is this how long this "stimulant" can last?

Long?

Zhao Guoer guessed that if Lei Jing drank the river water without any unpleasant sequelae, then the river water would be a rare treasure.

Quietly looking at the underground river in front of her, Zhao Guoer had particularly complicated feelings about it.

After Lei Jing discovered that the water in this underground river was unusual, she was sure that the underground river still hid many secrets. She had a hunch that as long as she could cross the river, the answer would be on the other side of the river.

However, the fish in this river are too ferocious and become an obstacle.

Originally she thought of using a fish skin boat... but later it was confirmed that the fishing net she wrapped in fish skin was also effective.

Using a fish-skin boat, she was worried that the statute of limitations would expire halfway through the journey. Without any other means of self-protection, she was afraid that the people on the boat would be torn apart by the fish in the river.

These fish have become an obstacle. However, without these fish, even if this river has other values, this value will be greatly reduced.

"Master, what are you looking at?"

Seeing Zhao Guoer staring in the direction of the underground river water, he didn't say anything for a long time. Lei Jing, who had already packed his things and was waiting for Zhao Guoer to return with him, asked curiously.

"I'm thinking, I wonder what it will be like on the other side of the river?"

Zhao Guoer came back to her senses and sighed softly. She looked at the extremely quiet fish in the river and said with emotion: "Tell me, does this mean success is Xiao He and failure is Xiao He?"

Xiao He?

Who is that?

Lei Jing thought hard for a while to no avail, but he understood that the "Xiao He" in Zhao Guoer's mouth referred to the fish in the underground river.

So what the boss means is that these fish will succeed and these fish will fail. Are these fish blocking the way?

Lei Jing carefully looked around in the direction Zhao Guoer was looking, and then said to him: "If my boss really wants to see what is going on on the other side of the river, we can just dig along the direction of the water flow.

The past is done.”

"This is a good idea. Why didn't I think of it before? I was only thinking about how to cross the river?"

Zhao Guoer's eyes lit up. If it had been anyone else, the project of hollowing out the mountain would have been huge. But after seeing the speed of Lei Jing digging holes, and being beside him, he could at least match half of Lei Jing's speed.

.

As long as the two of them work together, no matter how long the river is and neither of them has to rush, wouldn't it be possible to dig through the stone wall on the side and reach the other end in a month at most?

Suddenly, Zhao Guoer felt that this proposal was too good. She didn't find any problems anyway.

Seeing that Zhao Guoer was obviously satisfied, Lei Jing also felt happy. A feeling of satisfaction as if he had eaten honey welled up in his heart.

This sense of satisfaction made him feel even more impatient than Zhao Guoer and said: "Master, when tomorrow comes I will bring the bedding and live in this cave first, so as not to waste time coming and going.

"

This back and forth would take at least two hours, even if they were fast.

With this time coming and going, Lei Jing thought it would be better to let him dig an extra section of the mountain wall.

If it weren't for the fear of Zhao Guo'er's refusal, Lei Jing would have said that it was possible without any bedding. His daily meditation and practice of inner strength and mental skills were enough to replace sleeping.

"no."

Without thinking, Zhao Guoer rejected Lei Jing's request: "Where can people live in this place? Except for the convenience of digging holes, nothing else is convenient. Although it takes a while to come and go every day,

It takes a lot of effort, but at least you can stretch your muscles by going back and forth. It’s better than digging holes here day and night.”

"Master, what you said doesn't matter. It's enough to have food and drink here. As for stretching... I stop and rest for a quarter of an hour every two hours. Isn't that also stretching my muscles?"

Lei Jing looked at Zhao Guoer in confusion, wondering why she insisted on wasting her time on the road?

"Even if there are some benefits to eating fish and drinking water all day long, the raw water is dirty. Is that what you said you eat and drink?"

Zhao Guoer glared at Lei Jing angrily: "Are you wasting time? I'm afraid that as long as I don't keep an eye on you, besides practicing, will you rest for a little while all night? Then do it yourself. I'll pay you back.

I don’t want to, I don’t want to be accused of being a rip-off who doesn’t care about the life or death of the people below me.”

It's really life-threatening.

No matter how angry she is, she should be happy when she encounters such an invincible and good employee who demands to work overtime and wants to use herself as an animal.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Guoer saw that Lei Jing was hesitant to speak and obviously still wanted to fight for it. He couldn't control his temper and said with a glare: "It's not impossible for you to live here."

, at worst, I will live here with you."

Well!

How did this happen? It’s okay for me to suffer a little because of my rough skin, but my boss is different. She should be well-dressed and well-fed. Now that she has become a humble person and works by herself, how can she be allowed to do it again?

She also endures the hardships of living in this simple cave that never sees the light of day?

It doesn't work.

Lei Jing shook his head repeatedly, and in desperation made a lame excuse: "It's just that we are in the same place during the day. If we are in the same place at night, I'm afraid there will be gossip."

"hehe."

Zhao Guo'er, who knew Lei Jing would react like this, sneered and asked him calmly: "You have to be seen by someone to gossip. No one sees this, so I'm not afraid, so what are you afraid of?"

"I……"

Lei Jing was at a loss for words and hesitated for a long time before saying: "You said that no matter how delicious and beneficial the fish meat is, you can't bear to eat it all the time. It's also inconvenient to use water..."

"Hmph, then you think you can endure the hardship, why can't I? Are you looking down on me?" Zhao Guoer snorted arrogantly and looked sideways at Lei Jing.

Lei Jing: "..."

That's all, since the boss doesn't like it, then don't force it.

He immediately changed his tune: "Master, I think what you said is right. Let's not move in anymore. It's better to go back and forth every day. Walking around more can keep your body healthy."

"Not bad."

Regardless of whether Lei Jing really figured it out or had to figure it out, Zhao Guoer was not willing to overwork him.

This has nothing to do with anything else.

It's because she can't get over this hurdle in her heart, and she's afraid that if she gets used to it, she will become more and more used to it and become a cold-blooded person who doesn't take other people's health and lives seriously.

Therefore, this hole must not be opened.
