Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 442: Chapter 197: Each Exhibits Their Divine Power to Dig a Tunnel_3

”How did this bamboo mutate like this?”

Liang Yuan was puzzled but couldn’t investigate further. As the fire started to burn, thick smoke quickly filled the cave. The cave was smoked and scorched by the high temperature.

When the fire was about to go out, Liang Yuan took out some ice water and poured it over the walls, one bucket after another.

The walls cracked instantly, causing large slabs of rock to fall off.

Liang Yuan immediately picked up a hammer and started to knock furiously, breaking off even more rock.

He repeated this process over and over until around 4 or 5 PM. By then, the cave had been excavated into a one-bedroom apartment, even with a kitchen and bathroom, approximately 60 square meters in size.

Moreover, after being baked by the fire, the interior of the cave was dry and free of insects.

Liang Yuan quickly cleaned the place, swept away the dust, leveled the ground, and then took out a large amount of wooden flooring from his inventory.

He had scavenged so many rooms that he had plenty of wooden floors.

He easily covered the 60-square-meter stone cave with the wooden floors, and then he brought in wardrobes and a large bed, arranging them to create a cozy master bedroom.

”Looks like I still have a lot of putty for wall painting. I’ll use it to coat these walls later.”

”Forget it, I might still need to dig further. It’d be a waste of putty. I’ll just use some wallpaper instead.”

With the versatile sea cucumber adhesive, putting up wallpaper would be quite easy.

After all, he had taken down quite a few houses and had plenty of wallpaper in his inventory.

As for soft furnishings, there’s no need to worry about materials.

”I’ll have to figure out how to get electricity here later, but the generator is too noisy, not really suitable.”

”Oh right, those two sunflowers can generate light. I’ll test if they can also provide solar power.”

”If the two sunflowers don’t provide enough light, I’ll ask Song Wen if she can find a way to cultivate and plant more sunflowers, and build a sunflower base to utilize their solar power.”

The more Liang Yuan thought about it, the more promising it seemed, and he felt quite optimistic about the future construction.

When Yang Mei came back at night carrying a basket of wild vegetables, she was ecstatic to see the newly excavated one-bedroom apartment.

”Little brother, did you carve this out?”

Liang Yuan stood with his hands on his hips and smiled, ”How about it?”

Yang Mei immediately threw herself into his arms with joy, ”You are amazing.”

Liang Yuan picked her up and spun her around, laughing, ”We’ll sleep in the cave tonight. Let’s see who dares to gossip.”

Yang Mei’s face instantly turned red as she flusteredly said, ”Don’t mess around. I’m expecting my period in the next couple of days.”

”What? We’ve just moved to a new home, shouldn’t we celebrate?”

”Not that kind of celebration.”

”Then how should we celebrate?”

”How about I cook something delicious for you tonight?”

Liang Yuan shook his head, ”The kitchen chimney hasn’t been dug out yet, it’s not easy to cook, besides, what food can be as delicious as you?”

He gently pinched Yang Mei’s curves, making her blush and plead for mercy, which he eventually granted.

”Let’s not talk about that. Come, see the master bedroom.”

”I plan to put up wallpaper on the walls and connect electricity. It will be safe and cozy.”

Yang Mei walked around the room, listening to Liang Yuan’s introduction. She hesitated for a moment before asking, ”Won’t it be a bit too small?”

Liang Yuan was surprised, ”It’s nearly 20 square meters. There’s enough space for a large wardrobe and a two-meter bed. Isn’t that enough?”

Yang Mei hugged him, smiling mysteriously, ”It’s enough just for me, but will it just be me living here?”

Liang Yuan’s heart skipped a beat, but he kept a calm face, puzzled, ”Of course it’s just for you. Who else could there be? I’m serious. This place belongs to you.”

”Hehe, little brother, you are sweet-talking. Fine, I won’t tease you anymore. You should make three more bedrooms though, I’m worried it won’t be enough.”

Liang Yuan coughed, ”There’s no need for that...”

Yang Mei folded her arms, ”Oh? Not enough? Besides Ding Yan, Song Wen, and Dong Yan, who else is there?”

So, she had figured it out after all.

Liang Yuan naturally had his ways of dealing with her. He took a step forward, lifted her up, and tossed her onto the bed directly.

”Ah! Little brother, you... don’t...”

”Oh... hmm...”

A heart-wrenching moment later, Yang Mei was worn out and exhausted.

She couldn’t help but look up at the still energetic man, complaining, ”I’ve awakened superpowers, my constitution has improved so much, why can’t I still satisfy you?”

Liang Yuan grinned widely, ”Hehe, we’ve only just started. There’s plenty more suffering for you in the future.”

Yang Mei gave him a sideways glance, rubbed her aching waist, and sighed, ”Let’s take a break. I’m really tired.”

Seeing this, Liang Yuan had no choice but to stop and said, ”You take a nap, I’ll go get something to eat.”

”No, don’t go. I’ll cook something after I wake up. Stay with me.” She pleaded coquettishly.

Liang Yuan then held her in his arms. It was raining heavily outside, the light was dim, and the cave was naturally darker.

He looked at the light filtering through the cave entrance, realizing that electricity alone wouldn’t be enough. Good ventilation was essential.

It seemed that he couldn’t keep digging into the cave endlessly. Adding some openings horizontally would be better for air circulation.

Meanwhile, he had to consider the kitchen chimney and room drainage.

Luckily, the bamboo here was strong and tall enough to make pipes from it.

”As for waste disposal, it would be best to centralize it, maybe even build a biogas tank.”

Thinking about his plans, Liang Yuan slowly fell asleep.

Before long, he was awake again. His physical attributes were so high that a short nap was enough for him to fully recover.

He carefully got out of bed, leaving the cave while Yang Mei was still fast asleep.

Outside, it was completely dark. In the bamboo houses, each family had lit their fire pits.

A high watchtower had been built near the parking lot on the mountainside, with torches lit and patrolling personnel standing guard.

People gathered around the bonfire in the parking lot, chatting and talking.

For a moment, it felt like they had returned to the countryside before the apocalypse.

Back then, after busy farming days, they would light a fire in front of their homes, and familiar neighbors would come over to chat. Sometimes, they would add peanuts, garlic, sweet potatoes, and other snacks to the fire.

This scene evoked a sense of peace and joy.

Of course, if it weren’t for the pouring rain, the atmosphere might have been even better.
