"some."
"What is it?"
"A stone."
"Huh? A stone?"
"You'll find out soon enough, but I forgot where I put it, so I'll have to go back to my room to look for it."
"Boss, you're blind, so it must be hard for you to find things, right? Do you need our help?"
"No need, you guys continue playing mahjong. Shen He isn't playing, so just let Shen He come and help me."
"Ok."
So, Xia Zhi and Shen He went upstairs together.
Everyone continued playing mahjong.
After a while, the Great Tree King finished its bath.
She came over in her pajamas looking for Xia Zhi to give her a massage, but she didn't see him.
"Where's my cousin?"
"He and Shen He went upstairs to their room to look for something."
"Looking for something? What are you looking for?"
"The boss said it was a stone."
The Great Tree King paused, turned to look upstairs, and his expression became somewhat strange.
"How long have he and Shen He been up there?"
"It's been several minutes, they're probably still looking for something."
"..."
You two really know how to have fun.
The Great Tree King remained silent, sat down, picked up the book on the table, and continued reading.
About ten minutes later, Xia Zhi and Shen He came downstairs.
The Great Tree King raised its head and saw that Xia Zhi was holding several black stones in his hand.
As for Shen He, given the poor lighting at night, it's quite reasonable that her clothes were disheveled, her forehead was sweating, and her face was flushed as she helped look for things in the room.
"Boss, is this the stone you're talking about?"
"Yes, I found this in the mountains before."
Upon hearing this, Qiqi couldn't help but reach out and touch the round bead she was wearing.
This strange round bead that can cool the surrounding environment was a gift from the boss, who said he had found it before.
The boss always seems to find good stuff...
"Boss, what's it for?"
"It will continuously release heat. Throw it into the stove, and you won't need to burn firewood anymore."
"so amazing!"
"Such a good thing, why did you take so long to bring it out, boss?"
"Actually, it's not as good as you think. It can only keep heating for three days at most. After that, it will become no different from an ordinary stone. Look, it's as cold as it is now. It needs to be put outside in the sun for half a day to recover."
"That's pretty awesome!"
“There are three stones here, and I’m going to allocate them properly. One will be placed in the stove in our kitchen, specifically for cooking. One will be placed in the kitchen next door, specifically for boiling drinking water. The remaining one will be used to boil bath water, which will be perfect for renovating the bathroom.”
"Huh? Renovating the bathroom?"
"The current bathroom feels a bit small. What do you think about connecting the empty space next door to build a large hot spring bath?"
"Great!"
"Several people can take a bath together now!"
"Soaking in a hot spring is the most comfortable thing when the weather is cold!"
"We'll need Mr. Zhongli's help with the bathroom renovation. We'll invite him over for dinner this Saturday. Miss Akabane, please talk to him about it later."
"Leave it to me, boss!"
"I'm entrusting these stones to you for safekeeping. Remember to take them out to sunbathe tomorrow."
"Ok!"
"Cousin, come on, I'll give you a massage."
"Ah."
The Great Tree King put down the book in his hand and walked into the back hall with him.
Lying on the small bed, she looked at Xia Zhi, who was lighting incense, and asked softly.
"Cousin, is it fun upstairs?"
"Children should not ask about adult matters."
"Judging by age alone, you should be the child in my presence."
"Tsk, keep your voice down, or the police—no, the Chiyan Army—will come in and arrest you."
"Don't change the subject, is this fun?"
"No, why do you keep asking this?"
"I'm curious."
"What's so curious about that?"
"Because it's new knowledge that I've never encountered before."
Oh, I forgot she's a lifelong single.
To some extent, this knowledge is "taboo knowledge" for a girl whose body is still very pure, right?
"Quite comfortable."
"How comfortable is it?"
"To give you an example, it should feel similar to the sensation of me giving you a massage."
"I see."
Xia Zhi took out the bottle, poured out the essential oil, and began to massage her.
"How is your strength recovering?"
"Hmm~ Not bad, much faster than when I relied on the power of faith to recover."
"That's good."
"Didn't you notice?"
"What did you find?"
"I've grown a little taller these past two days."
"Have it?"
"Although it's only a little bit, he has definitely grown taller."
"But I don't feel any change in the feel of the massage."
"Keep your voice down, or the Thousand Rock Army will come in and take you away."
"Sigh, with such a good relationship with Miss Ningguang, going to jail is just like going home."
"Speaking of Ningguang, she's been asking me for advice on economics these past few days, and I quite admire her."
"I only taught her the basics, but you taught her everything. Aren't you afraid she'll cause a big problem?"
"That would be so much fun!"
"Too."

"All right."
"Thank you, cousin."
"Okay, go take another shower."
"Zhu Zi is taking a shower in the bathroom right now."
"Then you'll have to wait."
