Natural disaster at the beginning: I will lead the system to build a safe zone

When Aunt Liu saw An An coming back so soon, she quickly stood up to greet her: "Sister An, how come you're back so soon?"

When he saw what she was holding, he said in surprise: "Oh, an iron pot, where did you find it?"

"I'm afraid you'd worry if I walked too far. I was lucky. I buried the pot shallowly over there and no one saw it, so I dug it out."

Shi Anan put down the pot and explained.

In fact, she took this pot out of her backpack. It was the pot rewarded by the system after her cooking skill was upgraded. It can make the cooked ingredients more delicious.

In order to show it to others, she even rolled the pot in the mud.

Pot: I'm dirty :)

After Shi An'an put down the pot, she said to Fuxin, "Fuxin, go to the river and wash the pot, and bring back some water."

"I just found some gauze. Let's filter the water and boil it before drinking. Be careful when washing the pot."

"Okay, miss." Fu Xin agreed.

"Ruyi, go pick up some wood nearby and let's start a fire first." Shi Anan turned around and gave Ruyi another instruction.

After a period of buffering, Ruyi finally returned to normal. Although she still looked a little scared, she was no longer dazed.

"Is there anything I can do?" Shi Chengze pursed his lips and asked Shi Anan.

Shi Anan looked at him in surprise. This young master has really grown up and is now willing to take the initiative to do things.

It’s a pity that Aunt Bai is no longer with us. If she could see that her son has grown up, she would definitely be very pleased.

But for Shi Chengze, if this requires his own mother to sacrifice her life, then he may never want to be sensible in his entire life.

"Just help me pick up some stones, they should be of similar size and flat, I want to build a simple stove." The child wants to do something, but you cannot undermine his self-confidence.

After a while, everyone started to get busy. Aunt Liu helped Shi Anan to set up the stove. After a while, a simple stove was set up.

Fu Xin washed the pot and scooped up some muddy river water.

After teaching Aunt Liu and others how to filter, Shi Anan found another excuse to go out and look for supplies.

This time, not long after, she came over with some bamboo bowls and chopsticks.

Mu Shan and others were all amazed. How did the Fourth Miss manage to never return empty-handed every time she went out? Why couldn't they find her?

Because of An An's cheating existence, although the Shi family does not have many supplies, they are still much better than those of other survivors.

However, it was precisely because she had brought back so many useful supplies that no matter where she hid to get the supplies, she could feel some subtle eyes following her. They were probably other survivors who wanted to get a piece of the pie.

She was afraid of being discovered by others, so she didn't continue to take out supplies.

In the Shi family's temporary camp, Shi Anan cooked a pot of rice porridge, served some to Aunt Liu first, then served a small bowl for herself, and asked Fuxin and Mu Shan to share the rest with everyone.

Because most of the supplies here were found by Shi Anan, and Mu Shan, the servant with the highest martial arts ability, also listens to her, so Shi Anan is currently the one in charge in the Shi family's temporary camp.

Shi Zhengde was not convinced, but he had neither people nor supplies, so it was good enough to be given a meal. No one wanted to pay attention to him. He himself might have felt that Shi Anan and others would starve to death if he left, so he did not dare to continue making trouble.

The sky here has turned blood red since the last earthquake, and it has remained so until now.

All the surviving people believed that God's wrath had not yet ended, and they could only rummage through supplies every day. No one stood up and said they wanted to rebuild the city. More importantly, no one could tell the time, and they didn't know how many days had passed.

But in the beginning, because there was a water source here, so many people gathered here, and more and more survivors came here to live together. But as time passed, fewer and fewer people came here, and no one knew whether they died or went to another place.

There were now quite a few people gathered near the Shi family, but there was still no one from the Zhongyuan Marquis's Mansion. Fang's initial expectations had turned into despair now.

Others can't see the time, but Shi An An can.

Although this dog system started sounding the alarm when the last earthquake was about to occur and it lasted for a quarter of an hour, it has since crashed and no prompts have popped up, and it is unknown whether there will be other disasters in the future.

Although the impact of this earthquake was severe and the entire capital city was destroyed, the Tianqi Dynasty had a vast territory and there was no Internet in ancient times. She didn't know whether other places were the same as here.

But Shi Anan doesn't believe that this earthquake will cause the end of the world.

She also took the initiative to call the waiter, asking if there would be other disasters and where she could find a construction area, but the system only said:

[Host please explore by yourself]

Shi Anan: I’m so angry!

How can there be such a game system? You have to explore everything by yourself. A main quest has been released for several months but there has been no progress at all.

Fortunately, the system did not stipulate any punishment for not completing the task, otherwise she would have been punished thousands of times by now.

For her, the current system is just a prop that can be used to store things and tell time.

Because of the weather button on the system, she could see the current time and weather. The weather showed it was sunny. She didn't know how the system knew that the blood-red sky meant it was sunny.

Regardless of the weather, she saw that it had been a week since the last earthquake.

In fact, she had stayed here all this time because of this blood-red sky, but after a week, it still hadn't disappeared.

Shi Anan planned to wait for two more days. After two days, no matter how long this abnormal phenomenon lasted, she would set out to find the construction area.

Another day passed. Today, she didn't know if it was her illusion, but she seemed to feel that the sky was a little brighter.

Just when she was about to tell Aunt Liu, Mu Shan and others about leaving today, the gathering place suddenly became noisy.

A group of soldiers in armor poured out of the city, led by a middle-aged man who looked quite handsome, but his arrogant attitude made people feel uncomfortable.

"The emperor has issued an order to gather all the surviving people to rebuild the capital. They will be provided with one meal a day. If you are interested, please come and register with me!"

The middle-aged man held a piece of yellow silk cloth and announced to all the people at the city gate.

When some people heard that they would be provided with meals, they rushed to register. Others were still hesitant. They didn't know whether this group of soldiers who suddenly appeared were from the imperial city. What if they were summoned to do other hard labor under the pretext of asking them to rebuild the capital?

No matter how the people react after hearing the news, Shi Anan and others would definitely not participate, not only because they had enough food for the time being, but also because she had no plans to stay in the capital.

At this moment, Fang, who had been unusually silent for a while, suddenly called out in surprise: "Brother!"

Shi Wanqing, who was disfigured, also recognized that the middle-aged man who had led the troops was her uncle, the current Earl of Zhongyuan!

Both of them were very surprised. They quickly stood up from the ground and ran towards the direction of Earl Zhongyuan. When Shi Zhengde saw this, he also hurriedly followed. Only Shi Chengzhi, who was unable to move, was left standing there watching with a little expectation.

Unlike Fang's pure joy of seeing her relatives, Shi Wanqing and others had much more complicated thoughts. Her face was simply dirty because she didn't use any medicine and was simply treated. Now the scars were hideous and looked very scary.

I heard that many of the imperial doctors in the palace are proficient in beauty and scar removal prescriptions. Seeing that my uncle can help convey the emperor's orders, he must have a way to get in touch with those imperial doctors.

Shi Chengzhi's idea was similar to Shi Wanqing's. His leg was only slightly fractured, but he hadn't seen a skilled doctor in all these days. If he couldn't recover and became a cripple, he wouldn't be able to continue to take the imperial examinations.

As for Shi Zhengde, he thought that the situation in the palace was better than he had imagined. As long as the emperor was still there and the Tianqi Dynasty was still there, he would still be a doctor of the Ministry of Works. Then, those servants would dare to look down on him again!
