Xiao Shan vaguely remembered that an important person often said this to him, but he could not recall the person’s appearance.
Bai Junjun looked at Xiao Shan who suddenly fell into a daze and couldn’t help but pat his head, "Thank you for the lesson, Xiao Shan. I won’t make the same mistake again."
Compared to the honest Xiao Shan, Bai Sasa was much more straightforward.
She didn’t care about right or wrong; in her eyes, everything her elder sister did was correct, and she would always support any decision her elder sister made.
However, it wasn’t until they got back to the camp that Bai Sasa belatedly realized they had given up looking for Xiao Yu because of the wild boar!
Bai Sasa suddenly felt like crying.
However, Bai Junjun had no time to comfort Bai Sasa, as there was one thing she knew for certain—there were other people in this place!
Thinking of how they had wandered around without any defenses for the past two days in search of someone, Bai Junjun couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, they had only been roaming around this small patch of land behind them and had not gone deep into the jungle; otherwise, if they had encountered the people from this place, who knew if they would have been at a disadvantage or what else might have happened.
But now that they knew there were people here, was Bai Lingyu in their hands?
Considering this possibility, Bai Junjun decided to investigate further after nightfall.
But the immediate priority was to camouflage the shelter to prevent their location from being exposed.
No sooner said than done, Bai Junjun had Bai Sasa take Xiao Shan to the stream to deal with the wild boar, and only after sending them away did she start camouflaging the tree house.
Bai Junjun opened up a second room as she had imagined last night and then used vines to cover it up.
To be safe, she moved their living quarters to the new room, turning the place they originally stayed in into a storeroom.
From now on, all the pots and pans from the kitchen would be stored in the storeroom to prevent them from being discovered by others.
Only after moving did Bai Junjun redeploy the tree house’s doors and windows.
This time the goal was not to look good but to remain hidden.
The vines she chose were almost the same color as the tree trunk; from a distance, it looked like the tree was infested with vines—nothing else stood out.
After finishing work upstairs, Bai Junjun went downstairs, where the wooden shed’s human traces were too visible. She lifted the vines once more, letting them cover the wooden shed, making it look like a wooden stump swallowed by vines at first glance.
Once she was done with all that, Bai Junjun turned her attention to the newly hewn four-square-meter wooden stump.
First, she cut out a one-square-meter section to make a bathtub, then another two square meters to create a water reservoir, also hidden in a tree hollow.
She also spared herself the task of fetching water by directly stimulating the Water of Flora from the large tree to flow into the pool, ensuring they had sufficient water even without having to descend from the tree.
With the last square meter of wood, Bai Junjun cut out many small blocks to leave for Bai Sasa and Xiao Shan to play with as a creative activity.
Of course, what they created wasn’t important; the real aim was to keep them busy so she could rightfully go out and scout for information.
Bai Junjun methodically deployed her tasks.
After arranging everything, she didn’t forget to make her own crossbow bolts.
Ever since last time when she confronted Cai Jiang, the 20 crossbow arrows she had taken from Mighty Hall were all buried in the ground, and subsequently, she hadn’t found an opportunity to make more crossbow bolts on their rapid journey.
Now that she finally had time to replenish her equipment, although wooden crossbow bolts seemed much inferior to mystical iron bolts, in reality, they were not.
As a Wood-series Special Ability user, the power of her Art of Flora was the greatest.
With these bolts, her mother would no longer have to worry about her losing them. With just a thought, Bai Junjun could control the bolts to return automatically.
Bai Junjun made numerous bolts in one go, filling up the pouch that Madam Liu had made for her before she stopped.
