Lu Zhe had insulated it for two hours and felt it was about time. He said, "Who wants to go in first to test it out!"
Tang Xiaoguo jumped up with her hand raised, "Me, me, me!"
Lu Zhe lifted up a corner of the palm leaves and Tang Xiaoguo immediately crawled in!
"This method really works. It's much cooler inside than outside."
"Is that so? Xiaoguo, crawl around in there a bit."
"Be careful not to lift it up too much and let the cool air escape."
The four girls reminded each other as they all crawled in.
Shen Bing smiled and said, "My four sisters, how does it feel to be in the cold palace?"
"Huh?"
"Extremely comfortable!"
"Sis Bing, you should come in too."
"That's right, your name has the character for 'ice.' Maybe you'll feel even more comfortable once you're inside!"
"Is there room?"
"Come on, let's all squeeze in. 40 cm of space for each person. No one is allowed to take up more space!"
"This isn't very friendly to girls with large chests!"
"Oh my, we won't need that much space!"
Shen Bing also crawled in, and the five girls were squeezed in together. The space was just right.
What was even more surprising was that this palm-sized area really provided some coolness.
While it was 37-38 degrees Celsius outside, inside it was only 23-24 degrees. The girls lay down and didn't want to get up.
"Where will Lu Zhe sleep?"
Lu Zhe didn't care: "You're all under 1.7 meters tall. If you curl up a bit and give me a spot, just don't kick me while sleeping."
Qian Qian deeply admired him. Again, he casually touched our feet while cooking, without making a fuss about it...
After lying down for a while, everyone got up except for Tang Xiaoguo, who had truly fallen asleep.
"It looks like we really can escape the heat!"
"Oh no, all our little flowers have been plucked!"
Lu Zhe was startled, but quickly smiled. "They have died on the road to exploring the truth. To be honest, the nitrates reminded me."
Although Qian Qian and Jiang Yao didn't know the story behind this, since Lu Zhe said it this way, they weren't upset about the flowers.
Everyone understood that while the flowers were gone, they could gather more. If Lu Zhe's ideas for survival were cut off, they would suffer greatly.
At that time, the weather became hot again!
The girls started their daily complaining again.
"I really want to eat ice cream!"
"Lu Zhe said we can't get ice cream, so stop fantasizing."
"If we can't get ice cream, chilled yogurt would be nice too!"
"We can't get ice cream, so we can get chilled yogurt?"
"Unlikely!"
At this time, Lu Zhe spoke again: "Ice cream is indeed difficult to obtain, but yogurt may not be impossible!"
"You know about yogurt?"
"A little!"
Lu Zhe's words excited the girls. Everyone understood that in this kind of weather, being able to eat chilled yogurt meant something.
"Lu Zhe, you're not joking?"
"Of course not! We have milk, stone mortars that can be used for pasteurization, honey to increase sweetness, and nitrates that can be used for chilling."
"When you put it that way, all that's left is fermenting it into yogurt."
"We'll need a yogurt starter, right?"
"Right!"
"Where can we get the yogurt starter?"
"It's present in the human mouth and intestines!"
The girls were all shocked, with the same thought popping into their minds: "The original formula, the familiar taste - is that coming again?"
Jiang Yao frowned: "We're not going to use that stuff to make the yogurt, right?"
Qian Qian thought for a bit: "Doesn't milk itself contain yogurt cultures?"
Lu Zhe nodded: "Correct, milk itself contains yogurt cultures, but don't forget, it also contains many other harmful bacteria! Yogurt fermented directly would not be suitable for our pampered city girl stomachs."

s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant.

he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
