She Only Cares About Cultivation

Actually, Sichuan Province is very safe, because during the anti-Japanese period, only the cities were bombed, the rest of the places remained unscathed.

The main reason is that the terrain here is easy to defend and difficult to attack, with Sichuan Province mostly comprising basins surrounded by mountains. It took her almost a year to walk from Snake Ridge to the nearest major city, during which she was constantly on the move, and although the cold weather slowed her down a bit, it also underscored the importance of geography.

In addition to that, there was another important factor — the local people were very united and stood together against external threats. Furthermore, the Sichuan soldiers at the time were very brave.

According to historical records, among the national anti-Japanese war troops, on average, one out of every seven people came from Sichuan. There was a saying, "Without Sichuan, there is no army," which showed the bravery of the Sichuan people and their significant numbers in the military.

At that time, Shanxi was in the same situation as Sichuan. The soldiers there unanimously resisted the Japanese devils, leaving them helpless.

Later, the Sichuan area became the strong rear during the war, providing indispensable material support for the resistance.

In the September 18th Incident in 1931 Northeast China, she was still over there, but because her father was a warlord, she received some protection.

And her being sold off to this side was because things were too chaotic over there, as human traffickers took her running south and west. In hindsight, that unreliable concubine indirectly sent her to a safer place. It seemed she spent two whole years traveling from the Northeast to Sichuan Province. During this time, she didn’t know how many times she was resold. If not for threatening death, her purity would have long been utterly destroyed. Her price kept decreasing because she was the most fierce and difficult to deal with. Of course, fifty silver coins weren’t exactly low, perhaps cheaper compared to those sold to certain brothels in the city.

Perhaps another reason they treated her this way was because her father was a renowned commander in the Northeastern Region. These people feared revenge, so along the way they refrained from violating her, and they were also paid adequately to follow orders and sell her into the deep old forest.

Her father was named Yichuan, sounding like a Japanese, yet he was a famous "madman" in the Northeast region, highly skilled in battle. The soldiers he led were akin to Li Yunlong’s, shouting loudly. Unfortunately, she didn’t know how they were searching for her after her disappearance, hoping in this life she could see them again, fulfilling the original dream.

The July 7th Incident of 1937 was the real trigger for the anti-Japanese fight; by then, the Northeastern Region had long fallen. She didn’t know where her father Yichuan was now.

But she knew she had to head north all the way, as Sichuan Province, with its safety, was suitable for her retirement in her late years.

However, before leaving, she needed to work and earn money here, buying clothes to fend off the cold, and medicine for disinfection and treating illnesses. Even with space available, the journey ahead wasn’t guaranteed to always be safe, so preparing thoroughly in advance was better than being caught off guard later.

Her way of earning money was by selling fruits grown in the space. Due to their high quality and enticing color, the prices were considerable. Of course, the prerequisite was finding wealthy areas, like bars, cafes, Western restaurants, where wealthy people gathered to sell for a good price.

In such cases, encountering robberies or being followed wasn’t unheard of, but just one turn, and she could evade the risk.

Because looting during a crisis wasn’t honorable, they also needed to avoid people, allowing her to escape smoothly.

The money she earned was used like an ant moving homes, buying salt, cloth, traditional Chinese medicine, Western medicine for treating external injuries and bandaging; if she couldn’t buy something, she would think of ways to bribe doctors and nurses at the hospital. She even found ways to buy many of those glass bottles there.

She traveled from Chengdu to Chongqing for a year. By the time the July 7th Incident broke out, her space had already upgraded to Level 30, allowing her to raise livestock.

In the space, she had accumulated lots of supplies over the past two and a half years, growing cotton and grain herself, with salt alone reaching nearly 100 pounds. Those 100 pounds sounded few, yet she expended colossal effort. At this point, she wished to live by the sea, as the salt in the sea was inexhaustible and endless.

Like a diligent little bee, tirelessly busying herself with her small plot of land and chickens, ducks, and geese, yet uh-oh, just her luck.

On her way home, she was tripped by a half-dead man, who was covered in blood, shot in the chest, and dying handed her a wax pill before he uttered his last breath without even stating the address.

Yishui stared blankly at the wax pill in her hand, not knowing what to do because she couldn’t determine if he was part of the National Army or the Communist Army. After thinking it over, she decided to enter the space right where she was, beginning to watch closely for any people showing up, to see if anyone appeared to be looking for this wax pill...
