Chapter 420: Confused Existence

This huge cave is as lively as the Chinese New Year, and it is full of bustling people, except for the patched clothes they are wearing, and their faces are a little unsightly, everything else is no different from in the city.

From time to time, someone pushes a small cart and runs from the front.

This cave covers an area of at least tens of thousands of square meters, and looking at the size of the crowd below, there are at least more than 1,000 people.

"Can I take a few pictures?" Xiong Xiaomi was full of curiosity about the qiē in front of her, and turned her head a little pleadingly, looking at Ye Tiannan beside her.

"Why not?" The smile on Ye Tiannan's face was beyond Xiong Xiaomi's expectations.

"Is it really possible?" Xiong Xiaomi's face was a little surprised, a little hard to believe, she didn't expect that she could take photos here, it was really beyond her expectations, originally she thought that Ye Tiannan would refuse without hesitation.

"Of course, as long as you don't hurt them, you can do whatever you want."

"Okay." Xiong Xiaomi nodded excitedly, took the camera in his hand, and began to shoot at the crowd below, but the reflection of the camera made the people below, including Ye Tiannan beside him, startled.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, this is a flash, which is a principle of making up dark places, just like oil lamps." Xiong Xiaomi gestured with his hand, Ye Tiannan looked at the camera in Xiong Xiaomi's hand with some surprise, and nodded, as if he understood what he meant.

"Mr. Ye, you should have seen a camera, right?" Huang Dajun on the side looked at Ye Tiannan with some suspicion, during the Anti-Japanese War, it seems that there are not many people who have seen the camera, he has been taking pictures before, as if he has never seen Ye Tiannan with a surprised look, you must know that the camera was also a very rare thing at that time, generally only available in the homes of the rich, and it is just an ordinary kind of camera that needs film. That's probably better than the current camera.

"Yes, I used to have." Ye Tiannan nodded.

"Then Mr. Ye's family must be very wealthy." Huang Dajun replied to Ye Tiannan without hesitation, and was a little surprised, looking at Ye Tiannan's appearance, he should be the kind of person with a better family background, otherwise how could he know about cameras and taking pictures, not to mention that people in that era were generally short, men were tall at one meter six, and women were good at one meter four.

Because of insufficient nutrition, Ye Tiannan in front of him was a few points taller than him.

"Okay, you sit here for a while, I'll come over later."

"Okay, if Mr. Ye wants to be busy, let's go and get busy first, we don't need to entertain." Huang Dajun nodded.

After seeing Ye Tiannan leave, Li Shumin hurried over.

"Editor-in-Chief Huang, what should we do now?"

Looking at Li Shumin in front of him, a trace of disgust flashed in Huang Dajun's eyes, how could he have cultivated such a guy who was afraid of death as a confidant, and once wanted to introduce Xiong Xiaomi to this guy, but from today's appearance of this guy, it seems that he only cares about running for his life at the critical moment, and he didn't think about them at all.

If Xiong Mi is handed over to him, I am afraid that the fate of the next life will be worrying.

"Take it one step at a time." Hearing Huang Dajun's indifferent words, Li Shumin looked at Huang Dajun a little strangely, if it were normal times, Huang Dajun would never be able to talk to him like this.

However, at this time, it was also a critical moment, and Li Shumin thought that Huang Dajun was frightened, so he didn't think much about it, but nodded.

At this time, Xiong Xiaomi took the camera and ran down to shoot, hundreds of tents of different sizes were set up in the whole cave, which should be for people here to rest, if you don't look carefully, you really can't find it, these tents are sewn together with those clothes.

Although the tent was sewn with patches like clothes, it was well placed in the cave, and there was never a disgusting thing to be seen on the ground.

"Uncle, do you have anything to eat?" Xiong Xiaomi ran over, and after sending out the chocolates just now, Xiong Xiaomi touched his pocket and found that there was nothing to eat, so he couldn't help but run back.

"It's gone." Huang Dajun shook his head, at noon, Wang Dawei ate completely wine, and Huang Dajun was tired of eating those delicacies from the mountains and seas, but after being so frightened and running today, Huang Dajun felt that his stomach had never been so hungry.

"Millet, I have it here, and I have corn that was just roasted before." Li Shumin saw that Xiong Millet seemed to be hungry, so he quickly took out his pocket, but his expression changed, and the few roasted corns he had originally prepared for dinner were gone.

"No need, you should keep those few roasted corns for yourself, I don't need them." Xiong Xiaomi did not hesitate to reject Huang Dajun.

"Okay." Huang Dajun couldn't take out the corn at this time, his expression was a little embarrassed, and at the same time, he was a little annoyed in his heart, he forgot where the corn was just now.

"Are you hungry?" At this moment, Ye Tiannan walked over with a few sweet potatoes in his hand.

"Roasted sweet potatoes?" Xiong Xiaomi looked stunned.

"Yes, let's eat, there's nothing to entertain you here, and I guess you won't be used to eating."

"Okay, thank you." Xiong Mi was not welcome, she was already hungry at this time, so she picked up a roasted sweet potato, peeled off the skin and began to eat. Huang Dajun would never have eaten this kind of thing before, but today there is no way, not to mention that the tempting aroma of roasted sweet potatoes has been wafting into his nose, Huang Dajun took the roasted sweet potatoes directly and ate them unceremoniously.

Originally, he just carefully tore off the epidermis, Huang Dajun only ate it once when he was very young, and he hasn't eaten it since, just after taking a bite, Huang Dajun couldn't help but light up his eyes, this roasted sweet potato not only tastes fragrant, but also feels very delicious when eaten in the mouth.

Xiong Millet couldn't help but eat two in a row.

After eating, Xiong Millet stroked his belly with his hand.

"It's so full." Xiong Xiaomi touched her belly with her hand.

"Mr. Ye, do you have water here?"

"Yes." Ye Tiannan nodded and took a ceramic bowl.

Looking at the turbid water inside, Xiong Xiaomi was a little hesitant and a little afraid to drink it.

"It's okay, this water is all groundwater, if you're afraid of getting dirty, you can skip it." Saying that, Ye Tiannan picked up the ceramic bowl and drank it himself, seeing that Ye Tiannan drank so vigorously, Xiong Xiaomi couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.

"Whoever said I don't drink, I'm going to drink." After a period of running, I ate two sweet potatoes, and I was naturally very thirsty at this time.

After taking the ceramic bowl, Xiong Xiaomi didn't think Ye Tiannan was dirty, and drank it directly.

"It's so sweet." There is no imaginary smell, the water in the mouth is drunk, and there is an unimaginable sweet taste, Xiong Xiaomi's eyes lit up, and he drank all the water in the ceramic jar in one go, and after drinking, Xiong Xiaomi's face said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, your water here must be precious, I drank all your water."

Looking at Xiong Xiaomi, who was full of apologies, Ye Tiannan said with a smile.

"It's okay, we don't have much else here, and the water and sweet potatoes are still enough."

"Bring me a big vat too, Mr. Ye." Huang Dajun couldn't help but say it out loud.

After chatting with them for a while, I looked at the watch in my hand, Xiong Xiaomi, and found that it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening, so early, Xiong Xiaomi felt a little sleepy, and she usually couldn't sleep until one o'clock in the morning.

"That Mr. Ye, I don't know where we stay at night?" After Xiong Xiaomi finished speaking, her face turned red, and Ye Tiannan's words asking her to sleep with her inexplicably flashed in her mind.

"Well, come with me, I'll arrange it for you." Ye Tiannan stood up from the ground.

"Otherwise, I'll go and rest too, I'm feeling a little sleepy too." Huang Dajun was still a little worried about Ye Tiannan, after all, Xiong Xiaomi's water was so smart, and it was normal for him to have this kind of worry.

Ye Tiannan was not surprised and nodded.

"I'll go to sleep too." Seeing that Huang Dajun was about to go to sleep, Li Shumin couldn't help but stand up.

"Okay." Ye Tiannan nodded.

After the three of them followed Ye Tiannan around the tents outside, they walked to some caves inside, these caves seemed to have been dug in the later period, and a door was coincidentally installed on them, and from the outside, it looked like a small room.

Xiong Xiaomi took out the camera and began to shoot a little habitually.

"Okay, the three of you have two men in one room, and one girl in one room, we have limited conditions here, sorry, three."

"It's okay, it's already very good that you can treat us like this." Huang Dajun shook his head and smiled, and walked towards the room on the side.

"Xiaomi, if you remember to tell me something, we're next door to you." Although Li Shumin wanted to sleep with Xiong Xiaomi, he only dared to think about this idea in his heart, if he said it, Li Shumin could imagine his fate, and he would definitely be beaten into a pulp.

"Hmm." Xiong Xiaomi nodded indifferently. After watching the two of them enter the room, Xiong Xiaomi also opened one of the doors and walked in.

"There's a kerosene lamp in there, so you can always come to me if you need anything." Ye Tiannan said and turned around and left.

"Wait." Xiong Xiaomi couldn't help but speak.

"What, is there anything else?" Ye Tiannan turned his head and looked at Xiong Xiaomi with some strange eyes.

"Well, how did that kerosene lamp turn on? I don't know how to use it, and besides, do you have a bathroom here, sorry, I can't sleep at night without brushing my teeth. ”

"Oh, you're talking about the toilet, right, it's at the very end." Ye Tiannan pointed to a swarthy place not far away.

Xiong Xiaomi just glanced at it, and couldn't help but shudder.

"That, Mr. Ye, can you come with me? I don't dare to go alone. ”

"Yes, you can." Ye Tiannan nodded, walked into the room where Xiong Xiaomi was going to live, and took out a kerosene lamp from it.

Ye Tiannan said to Xiong Xiaomi.

"See, there is a switch below, to the left is on, to the right is off, the upper layer is the place where the kerosene is placed, if it is not burned, it needs to be replaced, the general kerosene lamp can be lit for about five hours, there is a pungent smell of kerosene when lit, you people who have returned from studying in the West, it is estimated that some are not used to it, there is already an electric light outside."

Ye Tiannan's words made Xiong Xiaomi a little surprised, took the kerosene lamp, pressed the switch below, and the kerosene lamp really lit up, but it was not as bright as expected, and there was a pungent smell of kerosene.

But fortunately, the smell of kerosene is not too pungent, and it is barely acceptable.

"I see, Mr. Ye also knows about electric lights?" After trying it, Xiong Xiaomi glanced at Ye Tiannan with some surprise, although the electric light at this time has been widely used in foreign countries, but in the Celestial Empire, it is still a very rare thing, at least it is a storage zài that ordinary poor people can't afford.
