"Then... Can I tell Sister Sasa and Xiao Shan?"
Bai Junjun thought for a moment, "Sasa is fine, but it’s better not to tell Xiao Shan."
"Why?" Bai Lingyu was puzzled.
In his eyes, Xiao Shan was just like a sibling to them.
"Xiao Shan is an ordinary person, he might not understand this kind of ability. Moreover, having a friend who can summon wind and call for rain during his growing stage, do you think it’s a good or bad thing for him?"
"?" Bai Lingyu didn’t understand.
Of course, it’s a good thing. This way, he won’t get bullied in the future.
But Bai Junjun shook her head.
Humans are social animals, after they leave here they will rejoin society. At that time, should Xiao Shan tell his family about this, or keep it to himself?
Furthermore, if his friend can summon wind and call for rain and he can’t, wouldn’t that lead to deviant behavior over time?
It wasn’t that Bai Junjun had a negative view of people; it was just that she had seen too many such exceptions.
"For Xiao Shan’s sake, it’s enough for us to protect him from behind. Some heroes’ names don’t necessarily have to be remembered by others."
It took Bai Lingyu a while to grasp Bai Junjun’s meaning.
"I am willing to be that kind of hero."
Bai Junjun nodded with relief, seeing that the child wasn’t so difficult to manage after all.
While the two whispered to each other, there also came the sound of frying from the kitchen.
Everyone had a lively dinner, and then it was time for Li Wenli’s treasure showing.
The beeswax he had made at noon had almost solidified. When Li Wenli took it out of the artificial refrigerator, the originally amber-colored liquid had become a kind of pale yellow paste.
Everyone was fascinated by this novel transformation.
Li Wenli lit a flame from the stove and set it alight.
So the beeswax candle began to burn with a warm glow. It didn’t produce black smoke, nor did it crackle with flames; it just burned quietly there.
Soon, the creamy yellow paste developed a small pool of amber liquid.
Li Wenli smiled and passed the candle to Bai Sasa, "Take this back to your room."
They had made seven or eight candles in total, and what was left was a large chunk of beeswax.
Li Wenli said, "This kind of candle lasts a long time. You can just scoop a piece here, melt it, and after it cools, it can be used again."
Bai Sasa nodded excitedly.
She had never used anything so amazing, not even the royal family had such candles.
Li Wenli smiled without a word, "Speaking of which, if we were to sell candles here, we might actually make a fortune."
Bai Junjun rolled her eyes speechlessly, "You wish. In these precarious times, who’s going to care about buying your candles?"
"Just because ordinary people can’t afford them doesn’t mean the City Lord or the Prince can’t," Li Wenli squinted into the distance with his sleeves wrapped around him, "I’m even getting impatient to go to the wealthy South."
"You better heal your wounds first," Bai Junjun said pointedly, dousing him with a bucket of cold water, then took Bai Sasa back upstairs.
By this time, the other children had grown accustomed to these two’s occasional verbal sparring, so they only covered their mouths and giggled without interrupting.
Li Wenli, hit by a brutal verbal attack from Bai Junjun, helplessly pulled Bai Lingyu into an embrace.
"I’m relying on you to recover my health, Master."
And so, the team leader of Polar Bear Base and the Fox boss from H Base officially began their joint life in the ancient times.
However, both of them were refugees who had lost the protection of their families, and their Special Abilities were very minimal.
