Siheyuan: I can always stay out of it

Chapter 9 Understanding Space

The meal was quite pleasant. Xu Damao's alcohol tolerance was not that bad, and a bottle of Xifeng liquor for two people would not make him drunk.

Watching Xu Damao leave, Chen Xu felt that it was a little unreal. After all, he had only been in this world for less than a day, and the characters he had seen in movies and TV now appeared in front of him alive, and they were drinking and eating together, which made people feel a little weird.

Chen Xu's understanding of the situation in the courtyard house is mostly based on the original novel. He still needs to observe the reality slowly. After all, there is definitely a gap between fantasy and reality.

It's a pity that I traveled through time a little too early, and this era is not peaceful at all.

It's not just a matter of the wind rising six years later. In his memory, China was not in a good state from the 50s to the 80s. Natural disasters and man-made calamities continued. Just like the current famine, it is just an appetizer, and there are a lot of bad things to come.

As I recall, famine was followed by floods, droughts, earthquakes, man-made disasters, and so on.

Thinking of this, Chen Xu decided to keep a low profile. It was true that he had the space, but he was not so reckless as to do whatever he wanted. What if he was too high-profile and was secretly ambushed by someone? He didn't dare to gamble whether Black Stone could take him through time again.

Looking at the small room, Chen Xu didn't feel disgusted with his little nest.

He has a relatively easy-going personality. In his previous life, he also wandered around in society after graduation. Although his life was not too difficult, he even slept under a bridge. Now it's good enough for him to have a small house to shelter him from the wind and rain.

But what needs to be cleaned still needs to be cleaned up.

Although the house is small, it has everything. There are not many things in the house, but precisely because of this, it will be inconvenient if anything is missing. Chen Xu decisively put the furniture into the space one by one, and then started cleaning.

It only takes a few minutes to throw all the odds and ends into the space to break them down, then dust the furniture and put it back in place.

He wanted to send items into the space, but he had to use physical contact, which was somewhat inconvenient. It would be perfect if he could do it with just a thought like in the space.

Thinking of this, Chen Xu himself laughed. He was just an ordinary person who understood the meaning of fart. It was good enough for him to have a space.

At least I still have more than ten square meters of space, which is almost as big as my own house. It’s a pretty good add-on.

Chen Xu didn't think he could be poor in an ordinary world with the space in his hands. As long as he was careful, he would surely have a life of wealth and glory.

The world of Love in Courtyard is not some fantasy or mythical world, and he does not expect to live forever. He just hopes to live a carefree life and it will be worth the time travel.

Holding the black stone in his hand, Chen Xu is full of hope for a better life in the future.

Putting the black stone into his mind was the only thing that felt mysterious to him. It was clearly a physical object in his hand, but he could put it into his mind with just a thought. This feeling was somewhat strange.

Unfortunately, this is the only effect he has outside. Apart from the space, he is still that frail boy.

At least the time traveler could have something to strengthen his body, so that he could beat up Sha Zhu. But when he traveled through time, his body was worse than before he got sick. At least, Chen Xu was not so thin in his previous life that even Sha Zhu didn't dare to attack him...

Fortunately, apart from malnutrition, there are no other problems with the body, and even if there were any, they have been cleared away by the space.

Chen Xu felt that he might be able to live for a very long time without any illness or disaster throughout his life. It shouldn't be a problem for him to live to the limit of human ability, right?

First set a small goal and live to be over 100 years old. As for the future, it depends on whether you can still move. If you can't move, it's better to just commit suicide.

Chen Xu didn't want to lie in bed and be watched by people, and then praised him for breaking the record for human longevity.

Even if his life is long, it is meaningless if he can only lie down. There is even a risk of being studied by others...

Chen Xu leaned against the head of the bed and thought about everything. It was not long since he had finished his meal. He estimated that it was only seven or eight o'clock at most. It was basically impossible for a modern person to go to bed at this time, but he couldn't find anything to do.

People of this era basically have no entertainment activities. Those who have wives can do naughty things, but those who don’t have wives can only do it themselves and sleep.

Now, apart from a pit in the corner where some water was to be put in, there were only two kilograms of corn flour, fifty yuan and a fishing rod left.

After thinking about it, Chen Xu stood up and put the kitchen knife on the chopping board into the box. After all, it was a knife and he never knew when he would need it. He also picked up a brick from the ground and felt relieved.

As the saying goes: You should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others.

Chen Xu attaches great importance to his own safety.

As long as there is space, he can't be empty-handed. He would suddenly take out a brick and hit you on the forehead. No one can bear it.

When conditions permit, you can get some more suitable weapons and put them in the space for emergency use.

It is not difficult to get guns and ammunition in this era, so Chen Xu naturally wanted to get some for self-defense.

Looking at the big hole in the space, Chen Xu felt helpless. He had no chance to collect water in during the day, and he didn't dare to leave the courtyard at night. Now the city of Sijiu is not peaceful at night. Not only are there those guys who are trying to take advantage of the situation, but there are also people with red armbands patrolling constantly.

Chen Xu didn't want to make any noise at night, and there was no need to collect water in Shichahai. Once he became a buyer, he would have plenty of opportunities to go to the countryside.

With nothing else to do, Chen Xu put the corn flour and the cooking utensils into the space, and then watched the corn flour slowly turn into corn flour steamed buns.

Two pounds of corn flour can only make ten steamed buns, each weighing an average of two taels, but they look a bit strange.

Obviously, this is not because of the space, but because of Chen Xu. What the space has done for him is the highest level of Chen Xu...

Or, it was the highest level of the unlucky guy in this life, who himself didn't know how to make cornmeal steamed bread...

Although the space is small, it still has the necessary functions, such as keeping food fresh so that Chen Xu doesn't have to eat cold food. It is also a good auxiliary function and Chen Xu is very satisfied with it.

A steamed corn bread can be eaten for almost two days. If you can also get some vegetables, it would be perfect.

People are always like this, when they have something good, they want something better, and their greed is endless. Think about how Chen Xu, who was still surviving on a pot of cornmeal porridge last night, started to feel disgusted with it today.

After putting the coal stove and other things back, Chen Xu planned to go to bed. Actually, he was not making steamed corn bread out of boredom. Although he would officially start work tomorrow, he remembered that he needed a ticket to eat in the canteen of the steel rolling mill. He just didn't know whether he could get it after joining the company or after working for a month.

These are just little common sense in life, but unfortunately neither of them has this knowledge in their memory, so they can only prepare for a rainy day.

In a daze, Chen Xu fell asleep.

A dreamless night.
