At 9 a.m. on September 7, local time, Xu Yiyu, who had a dreamless night, woke up early from a deep sleep and slowly opened his eyes.

Last night, I had a rare good sleep.

There was still an hour before the gathering time at 8 a.m. Xu Yiyu quietly pulled down the zipper of his sleeping bag and climbed down from the upper bunk quietly along the stairs.

Zhong Mei, who was in charge of guarding the second half of the night, noticed Xu Yiyu getting out of bed and mouthed "good morning" to her.

Xu Yiyu nodded at her, turned around to look at her cousin Xu Cheng who was still asleep, did not disturb her to continue resting, and walked to Zhong Mei's bed.

"Xiao Mei, you've been on guard for most of the night, go and close your eyes for a while. I'll watch over you for the remaining hour, nothing will happen."

Zhong Mei raised his eyes to look into Xu Yiyu's clear eyes, thought for a few seconds, and nodded decisively.

The team leader's eyes were bright and he seemed to be in good spirits. He must have had a good night's rest.

Zhong Mei, who was somewhat tired, did not refuse. He simply lay down on the bunk and closed his eyes, but did not zip up his sleeping bag.

Xu Yiyu turned to look at the night light on the table, then glanced at the dim sky coming through the curtains. He slapped the night light off, opened the door of the cabin without making a sound, and walked out.

After closing the door, Xu Yiyu stood on the wooden platform connecting the other three wooden houses, raised his arms and stretched, stretching his still lazy body.

The morning in the Ar Mountains was a little chilly, and there was a faint fresh smell of grass and morning dew all around, which made Xu Yiyu more energetic.

Guessing that except for the night watchmen in a few rooms, the other members of the treasure hunting team have not woken up yet, Xu Yiyu, who had not exercised for a long time, walked to the grass under the platform and assumed the Bajiquan stance facing the not-so-bright morning sunlight.

Since coming to Yidali, she has had almost no time for herself. She seldom has the opportunity to practice dance, musical instruments, or the Bajiquan that Tongzi gave her.

Before going abroad, Xu Yiyu asked for leave from the two Qin sisters, but after returning home, she still needed to make up for the missed guzheng and pipa lessons.

However, now is a good time to practice Bajiquan without disturbing anyone else.

Jiu and Lin Yi opened the door of their wooden house almost at the same time, and saw Xu Yiyu doing morning exercises on the grass below the platform.

Bajiquan's punches are fierce and powerful. Although Xu Yiyu did not utter a word, his back while practicing boxing revealed an imposing aura that most people could not match.

Tianlin, who had already dealt with the little bugs that wanted to disturb the owner's house, was now sitting on the roof of the wooden house, silently watching Xu Yiyu's back as he practiced boxing.

Under the special instructions of the Chosen System, he did not clear all the obstacles this time. Instead, he deliberately left a small group of people to let them escape.

According to Lord Tianxuan, those people are the whetstones used to sharpen Miss Yi Yu's knife. They cannot be completely wiped out, and some of them must be left behind for Miss Yi Yu to take action.

Although he really wanted to get rid of all these annoying little bugs, since the Chosen One had given the order, he must have his own plans. He only had to perform his original duties and protect the safety of Miss Yi Yu and the entire team.

Jiu and Lin Yi also saw each other, but did not say anything. They just nodded to each other and stretched their bodies slightly on the wooden platform.

Although Xu Yiyu was concentrating on practicing boxing, he could feel the presence of several people, but no one spoke to disturb each other. They just quietly did what they were doing.

After practicing the fist style several times, Xu Yiyu noticed the time on his watch. Seeing that it was already 7:45, he adjusted his breathing, retracted his fist, turned around and walked back to the wooden platform.

Tianlin also jumped down from the wooden roof with nimble movements and landed silently on the ground in front of the wooden house.

Because his movements were light enough, Jiu and Lin Yi were not alarmed and just continued to move their bodies.

"Good morning, both of you."

Xu Yiyu smiled naturally and waved to Jiu and Lin Yi. His eyes were clear and he looked quite energetic.

Jiu just nodded implicitly, looked down at his watch, then turned around and walked into his wooden house.

Lin Yi took the initiative to step forward and start talking to Xu Yiyu.

"Good morning, Miss Xu. Thank you for taking care of Honghong last night."

"It's not a big deal. I didn't really take care of her. She took good care of herself."

Xu Yiyu observed Lin Yi's expression while replying, and successfully saw some concern for Tan Tai Hong from his seemingly expressionless face.

The changes in the provincial criminal police team captain's expression are so subtle that one could even use pixel changes to describe the extent of the changes in his facial expressions. If you weren't an acquaintance who had been with him for some time, it would be difficult to tell the changes in his emotions.

Xu Yiyu had read the information about Tan Tai Hong and Lin Yi from his own master, so he naturally knew why Lin Yi was so worried about Hong Hong's safety. He had no intention of saying it out loud, but only hinted that he could rest assured.

Being young doesn't mean being naive. With Tan Taihong's IQ, she is more than capable of fooling many adults. It's just that she has always been deliberately restraining herself.

"That's fine. If Honghong causes you trouble, you can just point it out directly. There's no need to be so tactful."

"Captain Lin, rest assured. If there really comes a day like that in the future, I will do as you say."

Xu Yiyu looked at Lin Yi with slightly raised eyebrows, always feeling that his attitude towards his adopted daughter, Tan Taihong, seemed a bit subtle.

——Strict yet gentle, this is the first impression of Xu Yiyu.

"Nothing happened last night. Everyone slept well. I think Miss Xu did the same."

"Yes, thanks to some reliable roommates, I didn't even have a dream before I woke up at 7 o'clock."

Xu Yiyu looked really refreshed, and Lin Yi could see it at a glance, so he was completely relieved and didn't ask any more questions.

Tianlin took advantage of this opportunity to walk back to his wooden house, and before closing the door, he exchanged a secret look with Xu Yiyu.

Xu Yiyu keenly sensed the murderous intent in Tianlin's eyes, and therefore looked at him for a few more seconds.

——It seems that my assistant went out “hunting” again last night.

Thinking that the time was almost up, Xu Yiyu gestured to his wooden house towards Lin Yi, then turned around and walked back.

When she woke up her roommates one by one, everyone except Tan Tai Hong got up very quickly.

Little girl Honghong sat on the bed in a daze for a while, staring at the sisters who went to the bathroom to wash up for a long time, before she got rid of all her bad temper after waking up.

Xu Yiyu couldn't help laughing as he watched Honghong open the sleeping bag, he narrowed his eyes slightly and smiled.

Honghong is in the growing period, so it is normal for her to sleep a lot. When I was her age, I was much sleepier than her, but I don’t have such a self-disciplined schedule as Honghong.

Everyone who got up washed up quickly, and basically everyone could come out of the bathroom in two minutes at most.

However, although it is called washing, in order to save water resources, almost everyone just rinses their mouth and washes their face with clean water and does not take any other unnecessary steps.

Before the 8 o'clock gathering, after everyone in the wooden houses had left their rooms and were on the wooden platform, Xu Yiyu went to each of the four wooden houses and closed the door every time he entered.

Except for Xu Cheng and Tian Lin, no one knew what she did when she went in.

Before walking out of the last wooden house, Xu Yiyu took a look at the food and drinking water that he had stuffed into his backpack and smiled slyly.

Since I'm here, it's impossible for me to leave the useful supplies for Hinata Yamashima and the others.

And it wasn't just food and drinking water, she also made some barely noticeable tampering to the guns in each room, making them unable to be used normally.

Who made her have an almost omniscient and omnipotent son? This allowed her to accomplish many of her plans.

Turning these guns into a pile of useless iron lumps will at least significantly reduce the combat effectiveness of the mountain island side, which will be beneficial to both the treasure hunting team and himself.

After meeting everyone on the wooden platform, Xu Yiyu counted the number of people and winked at Xu Cheng playfully when passing by her.

Xu Cheng raised the corner of his mouth. He clearly understood what his cousin had just done.

"Alright everyone, I believe everyone had a good rest last night."

Xu Yiyu shouted loudly to everyone, attracting everyone's attention.

"For the next day, all of us will continue to go deeper into the Aer Mountains. Please give 200% of your mental and physical strength to cope with it."

"If everyone is ready, we can go."
