Chapter 180: Chapter 180 Arrangement

When the wick ignited a tiny flame and lit up the space, the whole room was immediately enveloped in warmth.

This small room had a soft bed padded with grass, and now there was a low tea table and a few cushions.

It genuinely felt a bit like a home.

Of course, this was also the first real home they had after wandering for so long.

The only regret was that Bai Lingyu had not been found yet.

It would be even better if Old Uncle Qiu’s family were also here, living in seclusion until the war was over.

Bai Sasa looked at Xiao Shan with complex emotions as he ate his meal seriously and sighed helplessly at the cruelty of reality.

"Why sigh at such a young age, everything will get better."

"Will we find Xiao Yu as well?"

"We will find her." Bai Junjun glanced at the distance, feeling an intuition that she would soon be reunited with Xiao Yu.

"I need to go out tonight."

"Go out?" Bai Sasa and Xiao Shan repeated her words like a pair of echo machines.

"Yes." Bai Junjun nodded affirmatively.

That was the reason she needed to make the candles.

She was going to explore again tonight, but with no lighting here, the two kids would definitely be anxious all night, but with candles, at least they would be somewhat relieved mentally.

"Can’t you just not go?"

"There are wild boars at night."

Both kids were very worried.

"Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon." Bai Junjun wasn’t concerned.

Just now, she had left a return gift at the trap site, and if nothing went wrong, the owner of the trap would have been caught by now. She needed to check on the situation, as there might be a pleasant surprise waiting for her.

If she waited until tomorrow, who knew what might happen.

Yet, Bai Sasa had no idea about Bai Junjun’s life-and-death struggle with that mysterious group.

After all, Bai Junjun had returned and was casually tasting wild fruits and making candles, showing no signs of tension.

Even now, she spoke lightly about going out, and after worry, Bai Sasa reluctantly agreed.

Once Bai Junjun departed in the dark, only Bai Sasa and Xiao Shan were left in the room, looking at each other, feeling more and more uneasy.

They hadn’t felt it before, but now that they had calmed down to think, they suddenly realized that Bai Junjun’s candle-making was premeditated.

Had she already made up her mind before coming back, and both eating wild fruits and making candles were just to ease their minds?

However, such actions from her elder sister only meant that what she was doing involved some danger.

Thinking about the dangers of the trap from earlier that day, Bai Sasa grew more and more restless.

But nervousness is contagious, and her restlessness caused Xiao Shan to become anxious as well.

To prevent her thoughts from running wild, Bai Sasa decided to find something to do to distract herself, such as teaching Xiao Shan to read.

They would start with the simplest "Heaven, Earth, Dark, Yellow" from the Thousand Character Text.

Xiao Shan had been a lively child, and Madam Liu was worried about whether he would be able to sit still once he went to school.

However, since waking up this time, Xiao Shan’s demeanor had become quiet and well-behaved, nodding in agreement when Bai Sasa said she would teach him to read.

So the two kids began their journey of learning the Thousand Character Text at the newly made small tea table.

Meanwhile, Bai Junjun confidently made her way to the trap’s location, a route she now knew well.

But only two-thirds of the way there, the ground beneath her feet suddenly gave way.

Bai Junjun lost her balance and fell in.

At some point, the ground had turned into a quagmire, and she hurriedly controlled her Special Ability, enabling vines to grow wildly and pull her out.

After extricating herself from the quagmire, Bai Junjun was relieved to have survived.

Everything had been fine before, so why did she suddenly encounter a quagmire?
