"Do you just want salt? What else do you want besides salt?" asked Saga.

Yun Chi looked up at the beams and thought about it carefully.

"And... spices, right? These are important condiments." Yun Chi counted on his fingers, "And all kinds of food and fruits, clothes and basins for washing clothes. Speaking of which, there must be containers for cleaning food, washing utensils, and a pair of shoes. I can't always stay at home barefoot. Um, and then..."

He shifted his gaze to Saga, and said loudly, "... Comb! Then there are combs, grease, and even better if there are knitting needles and wool, files and chisels... I don't know if you have such advanced smelting technology here, so forget about these two. The rest..."

He spoke whatever he thought of and gave a lot of examples. Saga looked serious and nodded as he listened to him.

It turns out that raising a cub requires so much tedious work...

Yun Chi said a lot in one breath. He stopped and saw Saga nodded frequently. He couldn't help but ask him curiously: "Are they all in these houses?"

Saga nodded and then shook his head: "Some of them are gone, but this island will not always float on the sea. At a fixed time every year, it will be pushed to the shore by the waves and border the place where humans live. At that time, you can go to the human city-state and exchange what you need with them."

Yun Chi was surprised and asked: "What kind of waves can push an island?"

Saga smiled and said, "The new God of Ocean Waves is a very lazy god. He often indulges his authority without restraint. Therefore, the waves on the ice sea have more powerful power than the previous God Era."

He gently pulled Yunchi's fur blanket and said, "Come on, you can get out of bed now, but I forgot to prepare clothes for you."

Yunchi had a limp, so he didn't walk very fast. He and the otter walked slowly across the house, around the stone dining table, and came to the other wall.

Saga did the same thing and expanded another room. This time it seemed to be a cloakroom, and the door frame was much more spacious than the kitchen.

"Go and have a look. Feel free to pick out any clothes you like."

Yun Chi went in as he was told. Unprepared, he was dazzled by the colors of the clothes. He saw red, like the dazzling sunset, pomegranates against the snow; green, like the everlasting summer, the tips of cedar buds dripping; purple, like ripe grapes under the midday sun, the shadows cast from white roses; black, like the long night that swallowed the stars and the moon, the eternal and mysterious death...

How could these be colors that could appear in the human world? They were all the clothes worn by gods, and their owners were gone. Only these glittering robes, flawless jewels and golden crowns still retained their former glory.

Yun Chi was stunned. He held onto the wall and accidentally pressed on a piece of clothing decorated with moonstones and diamonds. He was so scared that he quickly let go.

This is too exaggerated.

Saga poked his head behind him and said, "What's the matter? These are all left here by my family. Don't you like them?"

Yun Chi turned around and looked at him stiffly: "No, these clothes don't look like something a human can wear... And they also have commemorative significance for you, right?"
