Saving System: Calm Down, My Fleeing Host!-Chapter 34: Organizing

At this moment, everything was silent, with only the sound of the wind howling by.

Silence...

Especially silent, the chill in the air was cold and oppressive.

The man in the golden mask was full of contempt, coward, not worthy of living.

The man in purple still wanted to negotiate something, just about to speak...

Suddenly, a figure flickered.

A flash of the sword, and the man in purple’s throat instantly spurted blood.

Realizing something was wrong, he clutched his throat tightly, but blood gushed out in torrents, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"You..."

"How dare... I am..."

Before he could finish his words, with a thud, the man fell to the ground, lifeless.

Even in death, he couldn’t believe he died so easily.

He died with his eyes open.

The man in the golden mask remained calm, took out a handkerchief, and leisurely wiped the blood off his sword.

After a while, the battle in the rear ended.

A black-clad man with a silver mask approached, kneeling on one knee: "Report to the Pavilion Master, all targets have been eliminated, not one left alive."

The golden-masked man just acknowledged with a "hmm," without saying more.

Sheathing his sword, he turned to leave, suddenly remembering something...

In a deep voice, he asked, "Any news from Qingshan Village?"

The silver-masked man was surprised but respectfully replied, "No news has come back yet."

The golden-masked man’s cold eyes swept over, bringing an immediate chill, before he could speak, the silver-masked man, frightened, knelt on both knees, "I have failed in my duty, I will verify immediately."

With that, he quickly flew away.

When all returned to calm, the golden-masked man slowly removed his mask, revealing a cold and stern face—it was none other than Yanlan.

His deep eyes gazed into the distance, beneath his calm exterior, he suppressed a bloodthirsty madness. This was just the beginning, the score was not yet settled, clean your necks and wait!

Besides slaughter and hatred, he didn’t know what else was in this world?

Suddenly, a figure flashed in his mind, and then disappeared into the darkness.

Unable to catch who it was, it vanished into the shadows.

Meanwhile, Cheng Xiaoxiao in Qingshan Village suddenly felt a chill of inexplicable fright, who was cursing her?

"77, can you scan to see what the Tree-man is doing?" Cheng Xiaoxiao said uneasily.

Just now, she had a fleeting sense of unease, not sure what danger it was.

"Yes, host."

These past two days, the energy had been running continuously, the system felt it was a loss, why haven’t there been any tasks lately?

Only outputs and no inputs, how can that be good?

Though saying this, the system immediately scanned and found that the Tree-man was napping.

Tree-man was the nickname Cheng Xiaoxiao gave to Leng Qi because he stayed in the tree all day long.

"Host, that person isn’t doing anything, just napping on the tree."

Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled slightly, "That person is quite honest, knowing there’s nothing to watch, taking naps is also quite good."

Cheng Xiaoxiao was in a good mood today, so she went to the kitchen to make some crispy fried buns.

She loved eating them as a child, and still missed her grandfather’s cooking, sigh! Thinking she could never see her grandfather again, she felt a bit sad.

"Sister, why don’t I do it!" Erya said uneasily on the side.

Her sister was still not well, how could she do the work?

Cheng Xiaoxiao smiled, "It’s alright, I feel a lot better, just making some buns is nothing."

She said and poured the flour her father ground yesterday into a bowl, added some water, and began kneading the dough.

Seeing her sister so stubborn, Erya had no choice but to help light the fire.

At this time, after picking the vegetables, Dalan came in, "Hey, Xiaoxiao, you’re helping out in the kitchen, can you manage? Should I do it? You’d better go back to the house and lie down to rest."

"There’s no need to rest, I’ve been sleeping so much these past few days that I feel groggy, it’s good to move around a bit, exercise the muscles and bones, I feel much more awake."

She actually wasn’t sick, she slept so much she became sick.

"Alright then! Dalan saw that Cheng Xiaoxiao was indeed much more energetic." She said no more, tidied up the vegetables and meat, and prepared to cook.

Since coming here, Xiaoxiao had taught her so many cooking methods, and the dishes were particularly delicious, there were still some she hadn’t learned?

Xiaolan brought in a bundle of wood at this time, feeling troubled: "Sister Xiaoxiao, I’ve already told Brother Qi Fei not to chop so much wood, but he didn’t listen, look, there’s no place here to put them, it’s all piled up."

Looking at the girl with such a high-pouted mouth, Cheng Xiaoxiao secretly felt gratified, through these days of guidance, the two sisters had become lively and energetic, unlike when they first came, so reserved and helpless, not fitting in with them.

Now it was quite good, they even started complaining about others, this was their true nature.

"It’s okay, your Brother Qi Fei knows his boundaries." Cheng Xiaoxiao said indifferently.

Actually, no one knew that Cheng Xiaoxiao had asked Qi Fei for help with drying the herbs, and tasked him just with chopping wood, the more the better.

So everyone saw Qi Fei running back and forth, constantly chopping trees and bringing them back, splitting them into firewood. The courtyard eaves could no longer hold them, nor could the kitchen.

She also secretly moved some of the wood to the warehouse to avoid the watchful eyes outside, whatever she did now had to be done very cautiously.

Xiaolan pouted, "He wouldn’t listen to me, Sister Xiaoxiao, please talk to him!"

With such a concerned face, wasn’t this girl...

Cheng Xiaoxiao had an idea, "Alright, I’ll talk to him, blame him for working too hard and making our little Xiaolan sister worry."

"Sister Xiaoxiao, what are you saying?" After speaking, she ran away embarrassed.

Dalan was a bit worried, she could tell from these past few days that her sister especially liked getting close to Qi Fei.

It was important to know that they were now living under someone else’s roof, although their uncle’s family treated them very well, they couldn’t take it for granted.

They weren’t qualified to like anyone now, especially Xiaoxiao’s man, she vaguely sensed that Xiaoxiao wasn’t just what she seemed, exactly what she couldn’t say, but as all major and minor matters in the family were basically up to Xiaoxiao, you could see some things.

This silly sister, she definitely had to talk to her about it at night.

Cheng Xiaoxiao also felt emotional at this moment, she just wanted to test a bit, didn’t expect...

Sigh! The girls in ancient times matured too early, didn’t they? At this age, she felt like a junior high school student, very young, love and romance felt very distant, and now here was a younger one who already knew about wanting a man.

Tsk tsk!

This really is...

That evening, the family happily enjoyed a rich dinner, looking at Cheng Xiaoxiao lively and spirited, who looked like she was sick, the family suspected, was Cheng Xiaoxiao truly sick previously?

Now she seemed as if nothing had happened.

Cheng Xiaoxiao couldn’t help it, pretending any longer and she herself would go crazy.

After dinner, Qi Fei returned to Doctor Huang’s house, they had too many women in the family, not suitable for a big man to stay, in the end Qi Fei still stayed at Doctor Huang’s, just coming over to work every day.

There was a particularly interesting thing these few days, Qi Fei was very industrious, grabbing to do everything, even Dalan and Xiaolan’s work, scaring the two little girls they feared their jobs would be taken, leaving them with no foothold in their uncle’s house.

As soon as they saw Qi Fei coming, the two sisters would move their work place, causing Cheng Xiaoxiao to laugh and cry.

These two days, they required Qi Fei to only chop wood, that calmed everything down.
