How Long Has Passed?

Two large and ugly black pigs sprinted through the desert, leaving a trail of dust and sand behind them.

After recovering from his shock, An Lin fell deep into thought.

Only a year had passed, so what on earth had happened to Tina?

"Little Na, have you lived inside those ruins this entire time?" An Lin couldn't help but ask.

Tina pondered for a moment before replying, "I live in those ruins sometimes, and I directly sleep on the sand dunes some other times."

An Lin: "???

"You don't even live in a house or sleep on a bed?!" An Lin exclaimed in shock.

"Why do I need a house or a bed?" Tina asked in confusion. She pointed at the endless stretch of desert and said, "This entire land can act as my bed. In any case, none of the other small animals dare to near me, so I can just lay down anywhere and sleep."
