The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1267: Melting Snow

Night fell, yet the snow hadn’t stopped.

The house was quiet at Ling Feng’s place, everything had been tidied up, and now only he and Ling Yao were left in the shed.

The two sat in silence for a moment, then Ling Feng turned to look at her, "This snow isn’t going to stop anytime soon, shall we go back to rest?"

"Okay!"

Ling Yao nodded, got up, and went into the room.

Ling Feng felt a dryness in his throat. Tempted by the alcohol, he thought to himself, why not make it tonight?

He returned to the room, shut the door, and stepped inside to find Ling Yao tidying up the bed. Ling Feng walked over and embraced her from behind!

Ling Yao shuddered slightly but then chuckled softly, "Stop messing around."

"Sis, I want to..."

Before Ling Feng could finish, Ling Yao glanced back at him, "Not tonight!"

"Huh?"

Ling Feng was taken aback and immediately asked, "Why not?"

"I have to help you make the bed, then I need to go to Nine Heavens, there’s something I need to do tonight!" Ling Yao said.

"What is it?" Ling Feng asked, a little unwilling to give up.

"Xiao Yu, Ling Ling, and I need to go to the Seventh Layer to establish a base for future exploration!" Ling Yao explained.

"Oh, can I join you then?" Ling Feng asked.

"No need, the three of us are enough, so just sleep well!"

Ling Yao smiled, freed herself from his embrace, then finished making the bed, "I’m leaving now; someone might come looking for you later!"

With that, she vanished in a flash of white light.

Ling Feng was left dumbfounded, unsure of whom she referred to.

With Ling Yao’s fragrance still lingering, Ling Feng was lost in thought for a moment before sitting down on the bed.

After half an hour, no one came. Ling Feng felt Ling Yao had just been making up an excuse to avoid him!

With a sigh, he lay back on the bed, resignedly murmuring to himself, "Alright, guess it’s another night alone."

Just as he closed his eyes, he heard a noise in the room and opened his eyes, only to be surprised by the sight of Miao Lanlan!

Seeing her looking at him, Ling Feng sat up, "Why are you here?"

"I drew the short straw!"

Miao Lanlan pouted and walked over.

Ling Feng was a bit confused, "What draw?"

"Everyone decided who should come see you, and drawing lots was deemed the most fair!" Miao Lanlan explained.

"Oh, so that’s why it took so long, you were drawing lots?" Ling Feng said exasperatedly.

"Yup, what did you think?" Miao Lanlan asked.

Ling Feng laughed, "I thought no one was coming, I was prepared to sleep!"

Seeing her reluctant expression, Ling Feng teased, "You’re calling getting picked unlucky? Don’t you want to see me?"

"Hmph, I don’t!"

Miao Lanlan rolled her eyes.

Despite her words, her face turned bright red!

Seeing this, Ling Feng didn’t hold back, pulling her into his embrace, "Let’s see if you mean it!"

With that, his hands started to wander!

...

...

The next morning, Miao Lanlan woke up looking exhausted yet smiling contentedly, relishing her sleep on Ling Feng’s chest.

Outside, the sky was bright, and the sun was already out.

Ling Feng held her for a while after waking, then gently patted her back, "Still want to laze around?"

"Mmm, I don’t want to get up, can we just lie here all day?"

Miao Lanlan failed at pretending to sleep, lifting her head to ask eagerly.

Ling Feng was about to agree when they heard the girls’ laughter, as bright as silver bells, outside.

With a sweep of his Divine Sense, he saw Li Fei’er, Yang Guang, and a few other children were already here!

They were all bundled up warmly like little cotton balls, building a snowman outside!

Seeing this scene, Ling Feng chuckled, "There might be more snowmen builders joining in, hiding under the covers might not be the best idea, right?"

"Well, let’s wait until there are more people!"

Miao Lanlan still didn’t want to get up, clinging to Ling Feng and throwing her leg over his, acting spoiled.

"Alright, whatever you say!" Ling Feng laughed.

The two lay together for another hour before Miao Lanlan released Ling Feng, "Alright, if I don’t get up now, the others will tease me!"

Ling Feng chuckled, thinking she was right.

They got up, washed up, and went outside together.

By then, Li Fei’er and the others had already built two giant snowmen, each over two meters tall, standing imposingly on the ground.

Ling Feng saw this and couldn’t help but laugh, "You guys really know how to have fun, how did you build these?"

"It’s..."

Li Fei’er had just started to speak when Yang Guang interrupted her, "Don’t tell him, let the uncle guess, if he gets it right, he’s impressive!"

Ling Feng blinked, looking at the snowmen, then at the small figures, and asked, "Did you stack yourselves up like a human pyramid?"

"Wrong, guess again!" Yang Guang said proudly.

"Then I have no idea."

Ling Feng shook his head, pondering what else could have been the method?

Li Fei’er couldn’t hold back and giggled, "I asked for help to do it!"

"The Xuanwu Clan?"

Ling Feng quickly understood; with Wang Cai and Yellow’s transformations, they’d be much taller than the snowmen, so it couldn’t have been them, meaning Li Fei’er must have gotten members of the Xuanwu Clan to help!

Sure enough, at his comment, Li Fei’er clapped her little hands, "Exactly!"

Yang Guang pouted unhappily, "Seems like you’re on his side after all, not fun at all!"

"Hehe, we’re on the same team!" Li Fei’er said with a proud smile.

As they spoke, Li Yumei hurried over and said, "Fei’er, your snowmen can’t stay for long; the formation to melt the snow will be activated soon!"

"Oh, that’s okay, we built them for fun, and we’ve taken photos, so it’s fine!" Li Fei’er replied.

"Alright, as long as that’s okay then!"

Li Yumei nodded, "This heavy snow’s affecting the growth of the plants in the fields. If it doesn’t melt soon, the seedlings will freeze!"

The girls understood, so no one protested.

Nobody knew exactly when the formation was activated, but it was clear that the temperature in the village started to rise.

Within about an hour, the snow around the village began melting rapidly before their eyes!

As the snow melted, the water seeped into the soil, perfectly irrigating the plants, making good use of it.

Soon, the land around Shiliu Village returned to its natural state, with only the distant mountains, beyond the formation’s reach, still clad in thick snow!

Ling Feng took Li Yumei’s words to heart, and with nothing else to do, he asked, "Have we already planted crops?"

"Yes, we used a few sowing machines recently, and some plants have already sprouted!" Li Yumei nodded.

"Great, let’s go check on their growth!" Ling Feng suggested.
