The small inns in Feizhou, ha-ha, here are three words for you: "Total rip-off!"

No hot water for showers, flea-infested mattresses, broken doors and windows, extremely poor hygiene, and an abundance of mosquitoes; besides that, there were plenty of other small insects for company.

Looking at this scene, Lin Yanping broke down and exclaimed, "I'd rather sleep on the streets than stay here!"

"Then go spend the night with the beggars and the homeless! I believe they'd really appreciate the company of such a beautiful woman to ease their loneliness," Lin Yifan said with a grin.

Having a place to stay is already quite good; if you ask for too much, you just have to make some sacrifices.

Thinking about the filthy appearance of the homeless, Lin Yanping felt very uncomfortable and immediately dismissed the idea; stuck between a rock and a hard place, she could only act coy, "Isn't there a slightly better inn?"

"Big sister! We've already checked dozens of inns, do you want to keep searching until dawn to be satisfied?" Lin Yifan challenged.

Seeing everyone so exhausted, Lin Yanping felt embarrassed to say anything; after all, they had been searching with her for a long time. Since this inn was the best they could find, looking any further was unlikely to yield better results, so she chose to endure it.

However, she was a girl; she didn't want to share a room with other men, so she said, "I want to sleep in this room alone."

"Why? Both available rooms are the only double rooms. If you monopolize one, where will the other person sleep?" Lin Yifan questioned again.

"I don't care, I'm a girl, and I want to have a room to myself," Lin Yanping insisted stubbornly.

She had been single for so long and had never shared a room with another man; so, to protect her purity, she must stay alone.

"This is unreasonable. Anyway, I don't care, I want to stay here, don't even think about driving me away," Lin Yifan said stubbornly as well.

After putting down the luggage, he didn't want to leave, whatever she thought.

"You..." Lin Yanping trembled with rage, and was about to physically teach Lin Yifan a lesson.

But at that moment, Li Dafeng came over to mediate, "Alright! Alright! Lin brother, sister, stop arguing all day. We still have a mission to complete together, and we should not destroy the harmony; I'll keep watch tonight, Lin brother, you can sleep in my room."

"That's not right, Big Brother Li, you've had a tough day, you need to rest," Lin Yifan responded.

Li Dafeng had carried Lin Yanping's luggage all day, and, as you know, a girl's luggage often consists of several more bags or suitcases than a boy's. Thus, with so much, so heavy, running around with it, even Lin Yifan, a bystander, felt tired, let alone Li Dafeng himself.

"This is the best solution, let's settle it like this!" Li Dafeng firmly rejected Lin Yifan's kindness.

In fact, he had harbored a long-time secret crush on this sister; only she had always treated him like a brother, like something of a big brother figure, so he dare not confess his feelings, fearing he might even lose the brother-sister relationship.

"Ah! I really don't know why you spoil her so much!" Lin Yifan sighed, then picked up the luggage and left.

"This is a brother's love for his sister! You don't understand a thing!" Lin Yanping was very happy, then gratefully said, "Thank you, brother!"

"You're welcome!" Seeing Lin Yanping's sweet smile, all of Li Dafeng's fatigue seemed to disappear. It all felt so worth it.

After putting down the luggage and getting things organized, Lin Yifan and the others went to the night market for some food.

Barujia also had its own snack street, but the variety of snacks was vastly different from those in Shenzhou Country.

As soon as Yanping arrived at the snack street, she saw food she had never seen before—fried insects!

"What the hell! How can there be such food?" Lin Yanping was stunned, unable to imagine.

The thing she feared most had actually become the food of the residents of Barujia; it was overwhelmingly absurd.

"How is it? Tasty, right?" Lin Yifan asked with a smile.

Special forces had an important course—training soldiers on how to survive in various complex environments.

To survive, food was essential; there's no cooked chicken soup or fried meals waiting for you in the jungle or other harsh environments. You have to take everything you need from the surroundings. Therefore, during his time in the special forces, Yifan had eaten all the edible insects and had become immune to them, not feeling disgusted or uncomfortable.

"Tasty my foot! Is this even human food?" Lin Yanping challenged.

"In your eyes, maybe only delicacies can be considered edible?" Lin Yifan replied mockingly, then explained, "Every region has its own delicacies. If the locals think it's delicious, then it's a delicacy; it's just that our tastes are different. Like how we find stinky tofu and century eggs delicious, but in the eyes of Westerners, these are the hardest foods to swallow. Of course, economic backwardness is also a reason."

"Do you want to try some insects? Look, the shop owner is even waving at you."

Lin Yanping nodded, thinking that Lin Yifan made sense, but that didn't mean she would eat those insects; she immediately refused, "Try it yourself; no matter how delicious, I do not want to eat."

"Ah! You don't understand the world's finest flavors." Lin Yifan sighed and shook his head, then continued walking forward.

"You know! Why don't you eat them?"

"I've eaten plenty already; I don't want to eat any more," Lin Yifan answered.

Although he could eat insects, if it wasn't for survival, he didn't want to taste that kind of thing; because the taste really wasn't that good.

"You jerk, you actually ate such disgusting stuff? Don't touch me ever again." Lin Yanping developed a disgust, finding Lin Yifan repulsive.

"Ha! Even if you begged me, I wouldn't touch you." Lin Yifan said with a face full of contempt.

As they continued exploring, Lin Yanping found some local snacks of Barujia utterly intolerable.

Fried insect pupae, smoked fish, smoked oxhide, black bean bugs—just looking at them made her feel sick.

But that wasn't the worst part; the most disgusting were the fried bats and roasted rats.

Seeing each golden, gruesome bat lying there, her soul nearly flew out in fright; and those golden rats that resembled small cooked pigs skewered for roasting, she truly felt like casting spells to smash them with a slap.

"Sister Lin, how about trying a skewer of local specialty roasted rat?" Lin Yifan picked up a skewer of cooked rat, held it in front of Lin Yanping, and asked cheerily.

In such situations, what he enjoyed most was teasing those usually arrogant women, feeling a great sense of achievement.

"Ah!!! Get away! Don't come near me! I'd rather die than eat!" Lin Yanping was so scared that she quickly hid behind Li Dafeng, seeking protection.
