Everyone exclaimed and looked at Les in confusion as he put on the mask.

Reis glanced at them through the hollow eyeholes of the mask. With his hands behind his back, he proudly left everyone's sight.

When he disappeared from everyone's sight, Yuan Zhen came back to his senses and awkwardly said to the brothers and sisters who still didn't understand what was going on:

"You don't have to worry about him, he's just like that."

Late at night, wind and sand roared outside the shelter grotto.

Inside the shelter, there were six bunks lined up on the floor of the entire shelter.

The bunk where Yuan Zhen was going to sleep was lined up next to the door, and there was no room for any extra bunk.

After Yuan Zhen put them to sleep, he took out a mat from his bag and placed it next to his bed. He said to Reis, who was standing in the darkness with his hands folded on his chest and wearing a mask:

"Don't dislike it. I'm very poor. I only have this mat..."

Yuan Zhen made room for the mat with an embarrassed look on his face, "You don't like sleeping on the floor anyway," he thought to himself, but didn't dare to express it.

Yuan Zhen put on a silly smile and made a "please" gesture. Reis, standing in the shadow, put her actions into a mask.

"Yeah," Reis replied softly.

Hearing his affirmative answer, Yuan Zhen smiled, and her relaxed mood made her laugh.

She hadn't had a good rest for many days, and she was so tired - she pulled up the blanket and said hello, "You're tired too, go to bed early..."

With that said, Yuan Zhen lay peacefully on the floor.

She hasn't been back "home" for a long time. She misses the smell and environment of "home" very much...

After thinking about it, Yuan Zhen fell asleep peacefully.

The flame on the fireplace gradually extinguished, and the blue eyes under the mask, mixed with complex emotions, disappeared into the darkness...

In the early morning, the sun shines through the wind and sand on the door of the shelter.

Xi Daqi is special. Because he is older than everyone else, he has more responsibilities than Yuan Zhen.

He got up early, cooked breakfast and left it to heat by the fireplace. Then he quietly picked up the hatchet and walked into the desert as usual, looking for burning firewood and food to fill his stomach.

When Sidda walked out of the door, she found Reis standing proudly in the wind and sand.

Although the mask covered his handsome face, it could not block his indescribable kingly aura.

Sidda, who stayed where he was, was a little timid and did not dare to approach, knowing that this person was not an ordinary person that he could contact.

Shida patted her chest tremblingly to calm down her mood. She was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Yuan Zhen who had just woken up.

"Are you looking for firewood? I'll go with you!" Yuan Zhen happily ran to Shida's side, and habitually held Shida's hand and left the shelter together.

And Leis, who was standing nearby, also set off with them with his head held high.

No matter how you walk in the Gobi Desert, it is still a wasteland. Surviving in a free-range breeding area is not easy, especially now when there are frequent sandstorms...

After walking for a long time, the three of them came to a pile of rocks that had been blown into ruins by the wind and sand.

The pile of rocks is surrounded by dead branches that have been blown away by the wind and sand.

Yuan Zhen let go of Xida's hand and jumped into the pile of rocks as a habit, looking for dead branches.

However, Sida turned to the dead tree beside her and chopped down the dead tree to make firewood.

Reis, who was a noble person, folded his hands and crossed his chest, calmly stood there, looking at them from his indifferent mask.

For several days, Yuan Zhen and Xi Da went to the pile of rocks to chop firewood, and Reis followed them wearing a mask.

Shida and Yuan Zhen worked hard for days to chop wood just to stay warm in the cold shelter. But the cold-blooded Reis never participated in their work. He only had time to cross his arms with his chest not far away from them, standing like a mountain and watching them.

This point caused Shida to be extremely dissatisfied. Why would a man not lead by example and shoulder the responsibility of supporting his family, but just stand there and watch them work hard.

Sidda was sweating all over from chopping, and only chopped a small pile of firewood, only to find Reis standing motionless and wearing a mask of indifference.

He became angry instantly, dropped the hatchet angrily, ran to Reis and shouted, "No matter what noble status you had in the past, now that you have joined us, please do what a man should do!" Dissatisfaction aroused contempt in the indifferent Reis.

He looked proudly through his masked eyes, looking coldly at the other person's rudeness.

"As an adult, you idle around all day long and let a woman support you. Don't you feel ashamed?!"

Reis still looked at the angry Sida in front of him calmly, even if his mask was revealed, he remained calm.

Faced with Leith's ignorance, Shida's anger was like adding fuel to the fire, and she raised her fists to swing at him!

Just as Shida stretched out his fist to strike, Yuan Zhen, who heard the sound, quickly stood in front of Shida and successfully stopped Shida's stupid act of risking his life.

Yuan Zhen stood in front of Xida and scolded him like an elder:

"Are you crazy!? You are all the people I picked up, and we are all a family. Is it necessary to do something like this?"

Seeing that Yuan Zhen was so protective of the people behind him, Xi Da felt extremely uncomfortable.

But Yuan Zhen, who couldn't resist the situation and was worried about them, had no choice but to turn his head and leave angrily.

Seeing Xida walking away angrily, Yuan Zhen wanted to chase after him, but then he thought it was more important to comfort the big man behind him who was always ready for war.

"I apologize to you on his behalf. Don't argue with him if you have a lot of money." Yuan Zhen apologized tightly.

Seeing that the other person was still silent, you knew that he had returned to the taciturn state he had just met.

"Didn't you promise me that you would respond to me in the future?" Yuan Zhen pouted and muttered.

"Yeah." There was only a soft voice.

Then, he turned around and disappeared from her eyes.

Yuan Zhen accepted this answer happily, knowing that with his personality, leaving this "hmm" was the greatest honor for her.

Yuan Zhen searched everywhere for Xida among the piles of rocks, and finally found him in a pile of rocks.

Shida was venting her anger, pulling out dead grass growing among the rocks.

Yuan Zhen walked over helplessly, stroked Xida's head and said, "Okay, don't be angry. That man is used to being pampered. He can't do this kind of rough work. However, he has strong magic power and can teleport and shrink thousands of miles away. He will go there later." It will take a while for the Green State Market to come back. He is such a powerful person, why should we plan the current affairs with him." Yuan Zhen explained why she favored Leis.

She is not stupid. There will always be use in keeping such a powerful person around in the future. It’s okay to keep them, because they don’t have to worry about one more person’s rations anyway—and this ration is so disgusting that they never eat their food.

She was surprised. Isn't Reis hungry?

But it’s not surprising when he thinks about how he can teleport. He could use teleportation to eat delicious food elsewhere.

Just sneak there without taking them.

But after thinking about it, she didn't bother to argue with him. He was great because of his ability. An ordinary person like her still had to rely on herself.

Yuan Zhen patted Xida on the head and said, "It's time to go back, otherwise they will wait for us at home for too long."

Shida smiled relievedly and said, "Yes, why bother with that kind of person? There are still people at home waiting for us to go back!"

After that, they walked back to their "home" hand in hand.

The storms that lasted for several days made it impossible to open the pot in the shelter in the desert, and even the drinking water gradually ran out.

The door of the asylum was creaked by the strong wind outside. The two brothers Xi Luo Xiling lay beside the fireplace, Liu Yin caressed the limp Xi Lin, and Xi Da was pacing back and forth next to him, thinking of a solution.

But Yuan Zhen squatted beside the door sadly, listening to the door roaring wildly in the storm.

Suddenly, there was a "bang" sound, and the door of the shelter was suddenly torn open by the strong wind.

The raging wind was like thousands of troops, attacking Yuan Zhen and the others.
