In the Space, Mo Yan dumbfoundedly froze on the spot as she stared at the land that had expanded almost fiftyfold. She simply couldn’t believe her eyes!
After pinching her thigh with force, she finally believed that everything before her eyes wasn’t a dream. The Space had truly upgraded and had expanded to fifty acres in an instant.
But who could tell her why the Space had suddenly upgraded? It was clear that when she entered the night before last, there were only four red patterns on the bead!
Mo Yan pressed her temples with so confusion, recalling everything she had done in the past two days. She realized nothing special had happened, except for the chaotic night yesterday when she saved a man nad Xiao Ruiyuan.
Right, Xiao Ruiyuan!
Mo Yan jerked her eyes open wide, could the sudden upgrade of the Space be because of him? But how could that be possible, she rembered in her previous life she had accumulated a hundred and nine red patterns before the Space upgraded for the first ti, and even then, the land had only expanded from one acre to thirty acres, which was a whole twenty acres less than this ti.
In her previous life, the Space went through four upgrades, each more difficult than the last, with the key being the red patterns. Every red pattern varied in length and thickness, but she had never encountered a situation like the present where, could Xiao Ruiyuan alone be equivalent to over a hundred red patterns!
Mo Yan suddenly felt that she didn’t understand the Space at all, just like how during this ti, she had been supplying Lin Yong and the others with food to help those weak won and children get through the hard tis. However, after more than a month had passed, the bead’s patterns hadn’t budged and not a single red pattern had increased. Yet this ti, by just saving Xiao Ruiyuan alone, the Space had effortlessly upgraded and gained so much land all at once.
After thinking it over for a long ti, Mo Yan couldn’t figure it out and simply didn’t want to think about it anymore. After all, the upgrade of the Space was a good thing. With so much land, she could finally work to her heart’s content!
Looking at the ripe potatoes and sweet potatoes, Mo Yan vigorously set out to start digging. To call it digging was actually more like pulling. The soil in the Space was loose and fertile; she only needed to gently pull on the potato stems for the buried potatoes to co out, and the sa went for the sweet potatoes. As for those stems, she let them rot in the ground, which served as excellent fertilizer.
The nearly one acre of potatoes and sweet potatoes took her a lot of ti. After she tidied up the potatoes and sweet potatoes, she carried a basket and began to collect eggs. With over forty hens laying eggs, the daily quantity was considerable. Since ti flowed faster in the Space, one day outside was equivalent to ten days inside, so every ti she ca in, she could collect over four hundred eggs. Aside from supplying the grocery store and keeping a few for her own consumption, she sent the rest to Lin Yong.
After placing all the chicken eggs in the bamboo basket and watching the hens cheerfully scatter around, Mo Yan felt a bit troubled.
Previously, when the Space was only one acre, collecting eggs was not difficult. Now that the Space had beco fifty acres, collecting them without running her legs off would be a challenge.
After thinking it over, she decided to buy so bamboo the next day to fence in a designated area for the chickens, so they could be corralled. She was fed up with stepping in chicken droppings every ti she entered!
Slling the sweat on her body, Mo Yan happily ran towards the Spirit Pool beside the Jade Table to wash up before heading out.
"Mmm—this is so comfortable!"
Soaking in the Spirit Pool, Mo Yan let out a satisfied sigh. She closed her eyes and savored the Spiritual Energy circulating throughout her body in the water. Speaking of the Space upgrade, besides the increased area and faster ti flow, another point of satisfaction for her was this Spirit Pool, which was only about ten square ters in size. Currently, at level two, the water in the Spirit Pool had only two uses: to expedite the growth of all things and to strengthen the body.
Expediting the growth of all things ant that the water could make crops grow faster. Of course, it wasn’t miraculous enough to instantly enlarge the crops, but it could halve the ti needed.
As for strengthening the body, it wasn’t for drinking but for bathing. The water in the Spirit Pool was rich in Spiritual Energy, which could seep through the pores into the body, driving out impurities and toxins from inside out, thus enhancing physical strength.
As the level of the Space increased, the Spirit Pool would upgrade as well. In her previous life, the Spirit Pool had only been upgraded three tis and already had the capability to heal and save lives. As to what extent it would reach with further upgrades, even Mo Yan didn’t know.
Having soaked for nearly half an hour, Mo Yan almost fell asleep, but feeling the warmth surging inside her body, she knew the bath had taken effect and didn’t soak any longer. Once she was dressed and stepped out of the Space, she was sneaking back to her room through the main hall when a cold voice suddenly ca from behind, frightening her half out of her wits.
"When did you co out?"
Xiao Ruiyuan looked at the woman whose actions were sneaky, a touch of surprise flashing in his eyes. He had just woken up and couldn’t sleep, so he went to stand in the courtyard for a while. Just when he was about to enter the house, he saw her returning to her room, yet he hadn’t noticed her leaving it at all.
Upon hearing this, Mo Yan’s face "swooshed" white—she had been discovered!
In the darkness, Xiao Ruiyuan couldn’t see her expression. Seeing her not speaking, he asked again, "When did you go out?"
With stiff limbs, Mo Yan turned around, facing the silhouette standing at the entrance. Her mind went blank, unable to utter a word, until her wrist was pinched, sending waves of warmth through her, and she finally ca to her senses. Without thinking, she kicked out.
"Rogue! Let go!"
Xiao Ruiyuan dodged nimbly, but the movent unexpectedly aggravated the wound on his stomach. However, his long and jade-like hands still firmly locked onto her wrist.
"Hmm? Your pulse is weak and floating, and you’re utterly devoid of breath, clearly having no inner strength. Yet, you managed to elude my ears. How did you do it?"
Just as Mo Yan was about to kick him again, she heard these words and was montarily nonplussed: What was this all about?
Seeing her silent again, Xiao Ruiyuan lost his patience and impatiently snapped, "Answer !"
Jeez, does he need to be so self-righteous?
Mo Yan gave him an inelegant eye roll, but unfortunately, it was night, and he couldn’t see it.
"I just wanted to relieve myself, and seeing you in the courtyard, how could I have the nerve to go by? Fixated on the moon and lost in your thoughts, how would you notice !"
Knowing he had not seen her erging from the Space and suddenly appearing in the courtyard, Mo Yan’s senses swiftly returned, and she hurriedly concocted a more credible excuse on the fly.
Xiao Ruiyuan didn’t believe her excuse; even if he was distracted, he would retain a hint of vigilance, yet he had detected nothing earlier.
Worried about giving herself away and not wanting to entangle with him any longer, Mo Yan said impatiently, shaking her arm, "How much longer do you intend to hold on?"
Xiao Ruiyuan quickly released her hand, a hint of irritation suddenly flooding his icy face, but the slick sensation from her wrist seed to linger in his palm.
Mo Yan huffed and walked into her room, slamming the door shut behind her.
Xiao Ruiyuan stood outside the door for a mont, eventually pushing aside the odd feeling in his heart and turned back to his own room...
