The night was very dark. In the small farmhouse community, it was very quiet. Bai Jing was idle, so he sent his mind into his space and left only a trace of awareness outside so that he could wake up in advance if anything strange happened.

In the middle of the night, Bai Jing was busy plowing the first mu of land when he suddenly heard the sound of dogs barking coming from outside. He hadn't yet completely gathered his wits and had only just brought his awareness back when someone rushed towards the house. After the experiences from recent days, they were vigiliant all the time. Even when they slept, they also slept lightly, and when they heard the noise outside, they all subconsciously woke up.

"What's the matter?" Xiao Sa was the first to run out, wearing only a simple shirt. When Bai Jing saw it, he frowned and said unhappily, "Why did you come out? Go and put your clothes on properly. We can take care of the matters outside."

Everyone else was speechless. They were all dressed lightly, but why didn't Bai Jing worry about them? The only fortunate thing was there was heating in the room now, and it wasn't so cold.

Cao Lei raised his eyebrows – his attitude was obvious. They were not Xiao Sa, and if they wanted to get their young master's attention, they would probably have to wait until the next life. Could they even compare? His heart was filled with envy.

Xiao Sa's heart warmed, and he did not refute it. Under Bai Jing's insistent gaze, he turned back to his room and put on more clothes. If others wanted to be envious, then they could just go ahead and be jealous.

Then, someone else emerged from their room. Yu Yue was dressed neatly as his gaze swept everywhere before landing on Bai Jing, "Some people have come from outside; there are two mutant dogs pulling sledges, five men, one woman, and a child. They are estimated to be 100 meters away."

The crowd went silent. They had not expected that people other than Bai Jing would also have sledges, only, those mutant dogs...

As though understanding the doubts in everyone's heads, Yu Yue went on to say, "They have spiritual powers, and the mutant dogs seem domesticated. They look obedient and smarter than ordinary dogs, going where they're directed."

Bai Jing nodded. He knew about this. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that domesticating them took time, he would also have wanted to raise a few animals. They would make good helpers after they mutated.

Yu Yue's words had just fallen when they heard a clattering noise from outside followed by a knock at the door. People from the courtyard next door were also woken up and rushed out, standing at the entrance to their house without moving. They looked as if they were waiting to see what moves their side would make, their eyes brimming with hidden envy.

There were others who kept quiet and made no sound, standing by their windows and watching. Bai Jing opened the door to their house. His vision had also improved after upgrading his powers, and he took in all the details of the scene. Everyone watched as Bai Jing went out, and then hurriedly went back to put on more clothes. Whatever the situation was, it would have to wait.

"Sister Lian, it's snowing so heavily. Do you think they will refuse to open the door?" A man asked uneasily, his expression showing anxiety.

The woman called Sister Lian shook her head and wrapped up the baby in her arms even more tightly. "No, the world is so chaotic now. Regardless of whether they are good people or bad, as long as they are smart, they will be willing to meet. They can't be shrinking turtles for their entire life."
