Time flows by in calmness; in the blink of an eye, six or seven days have passed.
In this period, the entire Donglin City became noticeably more heavily guarded.
Originally, as long as the entrance fee was paid, one could freely enter and exit the city gates. But now the checks have become extremely stringent.
However, none of this has much to do with Chen Hai.
After all, he has been in Donglin City for decades, always living a secluded life, and the household's expenses are supported by his original savings.
He doesn't need to hunt outside nor gather herbs to sustain his livelihood. Even if this Donglin City allows entry but not exit, it's not affecting him or others in the mansion too much.
After absorbing the chill from Qingmu's body, although he did this to save others, he also benefited significantly.
During these six or seven days, Chen Hai never left home, went into secluded cultivation, to digest the immense gains his absorption of those chills brought him.
