Happy life of a woman in the space apocalypse

Chapter 56: A life of turning things around

Jian Wu shook her head lacking interest. She had no interest in chatting with a child.

"Really, I'm not lying to you, there are streams, flowers, fruit trees, and many small animals there."

"Oh, is it so."

"That's my secret base. I told you because you're beautiful."

"Haha, thank you for the compliment."

The girl became anxious when she saw that Jian Wu remained unmoved, thinking that she didn't believe her.

"I really didn't lie to you!"

"I didn't say you lied to me."

"Why didn't you want to go with me?"

"I'm ready to go home."

"Can I see you here next time?"

Jian Wu stopped and looked at the little girl carefully.

"Why do you want to see me again?"

"Because you are beautiful, and beautiful people must go to see beautiful places."

“This reason doesn’t seem to convince me.”

The little girl got angry, even though she clearly meant well.

"Humph, forget it if you don't believe me. It's in the cave over there. You can see it as long as you go through it."

Jian Wu looked in the direction the little girl pointed, and found that there was a cave there.

"Are you just leaving like this?"

"Humph, why don't you leave? You don't want to accompany me."

"Aren't you working in the mountains? Why do you need someone to accompany you?"

“Because no one at home talks to me.”

Jian Wu didn't want to ask about other people's privacy, even if the little girl didn't necessarily think it was private. She took out the remaining half of the beggar's chicken from her bag and stuffed it into the other party's pocket.

"Thank you for telling me about this beautiful place. I'll treat you to some chicken."

"really?"

"Well, let's eat on the mountain before going home."

The little girl happily smelled the aroma of the meat in her hand and sat on the ground to eat it. Jian Wu was also there, and seeing her wolfing down the food reminded her of herself in the apocalypse, when she finally found something to eat.

"It's delicious, thank you, sister."

"You're welcome. Do you go up the mountain often?"

"Well, when we run out of firewood and vegetables at home, we have to go to the mountains to find them. But I like going to the mountains because I can talk to the animals here."

"This is good. I used to hum songs when there was no one to talk to. It's actually the same as talking."

The little girl quickly finished half a chicken, wiped her mouth and stood up.

"Thank you, sister. I will roast some wild game for you when I catch it. Goodbye, sister!"

"Goodbye."

When Jian Wu saw people running down the mountain, she turned around and went back up the mountain. She also wanted to see how beautiful the place was.

It only took half an hour to find the cave. I took out a flashlight from my bag and shone it around. It looked like there was no danger.

The cave is not long, only about 500 meters. When you are almost at the end, you can see some light. It turns out that the light is blocked by vines. You can see traces of someone crawling out from below.

Jian Wu took out the gardening shears and cut off a lot of vines with a few clicks. She could also stand in the cave and look down.

Large vines drooped down like a waterfall. Looking up, there were ancient pine trees above the cave that were like giant umbrellas, with their exposed roots entangled on the stone wall like pythons.

Looking further away, the banks of the gently rippling stream are covered with wild flowers taller than the horse's head. They are so colorful in red, yellow, blue, white and purple. How can there be such a picturesque place here? It's like another world completely.

Jian Wu looked at the distance from the cave to the ground and found that it was about four or five meters. A little girl was going down by pulling the vines. She reached out and pulled but still felt unsafe.

I took out the ladder and climbed down first, holding the vines and stepping on the top of the ladder to climb down smoothly. I strolled by the stream and picked a few unknown flowers in a particularly good mood. They smelled a little fragrant.

I sat by the stream, washed my face, and looked carefully at this beautiful place bit by bit.

When she saw there was another cave here, she stood up immediately. It was also covered with vines and had no signs of having been climbed. It might be because the little girl was not strong enough to climb up.

Jian Wu ran back, carrying the ladder and came to the bottom of the cave. The heights of the two caves were surprisingly the same. She stood on the top of the ladder and started cutting again.

He left only a few thick vines for support. He stood at the entrance of the cave, brushed the dust off his pants, and slowly walked in.

With the dagger in his hand, he walked about two hundred meters and saw an entrance similar to a cave dwelling. From the outside, it was obviously a cave dug by humans.

After walking in, she found that the width was definitely large enough, and the inside was like a winding mountain road, with turns one after another. Jian Wu couldn't remember how many times she turned before she stopped at a place with three small caves.

He took out a signal firework and threw it into the first cave. After waiting for five or six minutes and not seeing any wild animals coming out, he bravely walked in. However, after only ten steps, he saw some boxes, all of which were stone boxes.

Jian Wu tried hard to pry open the lid of the stone box with a dagger, but no matter how hard she tried, the lid didn't move at all.

She walked around the stone box twice and put her hand on the lid of one of the boxes to try to retract it into the space. After successfully retracting one of the lids, she saw that the inside was filled with neatly arranged large gold bricks. She picked up one and weighed it, and it felt like it weighed at least ten kilograms.

Jian Wu covered her mouth with joy. Did she follow the heroine's plot? She walked around all the stone boxes and carefully counted them. There were a total of thirty-six boxes.

This time he was quicker and within ten minutes he had taken away all the contents of the stone boxes. She didn't look closely and it seemed that not all of them were gold.

In the second cave, I threw signal fireworks first. Money is important but life is more important. After making sure it was safe, I walked in. This time I was disappointed because there was nothing inside.

She did the same with the third one, but it was also empty. However, this unexpected surprise made her very satisfied. Anyone would go crazy with excitement to have an extra sum of money that they could not spend in a lifetime.

He returned briskly along the only road, sat by the stream again, and looked at the harvest in the space with his mind.

It turned out that a box of large gold bricks contained 100 pieces, and there were 20 piles in total. When she collected them, she separated them, which made 2,000 pieces in total.

Jian Wu was lying in the bushes, holding her chest. Was this unexpected fortune that she encountered? The amount of gold today had exceeded the storage capacity of her space.

The gold jewelry and small gold bars I collected from various gold shops and shopping malls in my previous life were not even half of this.

After taking a long break and drinking half a bottle of iced Sprite, I continued looking. The rest were wooden boxes with carved patterns. When I opened one at random, I found a pair of small vases made of white jade.

After that, Jian Wu had lost the ability to scream. It was a complete set of top-quality jade jewelry, sapphire jewelry, and diamond jewelry.

These jewelry and ornaments would have been of great value in previous lives, some even more valuable than gold.

This unexpected windfall made Jian Wu extremely satisfied. Is she going to be lucky in this life? Is this a life of turning things around against all odds?
