A nondescript Jeep drove into a small valley deep within the Heng Mountain Range in the afternoon.
The moment she got out of the car, Gu Xi felt a pure energy wash over her.
Shen Yue jumped out from the other side, looking back to explain, "The farms around here send Crystal Cores over every so often..."
Gu Xi nodded. She understood. 'This place is basically the equivalent of a pre-apocalypse bank vault.'
'But...'
"Why are there sweet potatoes planted everywhere?" Gu Xi asked, completely baffled.
It wasn't that she looked down on sweet potatoes, but planting them all around a "bank vault" just struck Gu Xi as... how to put it... a little odd.
Shen Yue lazily raised an eyebrow and sighed. "We didn't have a choice. Do you remember that bag of sweet potatoes you gave to Qin Yi?"
Gu Xi nodded. That was the day she had first met the Qin sisters. Qin Yi had been very friendly and given her a pack of compressed biscuits, so she had given her a bag of sweet potatoes in return.
