Chapter 7 – Absorbing the Spirit Jade (吸收纳灵玉)
The figure of the old man began to fade once he finished speaking.
Jing Yunzhao suddenly felt a sense of unease and quickly got down onto her knees, “This junior will abide by the teachings of Old Ancestor. If I break my word, I will not die a peaceful death!”
“It’s fine, I’ve already said what needed to be said, you may do as you please. Oh additionally, the flow of ti in the outside world is five tis faster than in this space, so you don’t have to be alard when you leave. To enter and leave this space is simple, you just need to concentrate...”
His figure disappeared completely once he finished his last sentence.
Jing Yunzhao engraved every word of their conversation into her heart and bowed a few tis in the direction of the place where he had disappeared.
The gods pitied her and had given her a di?erent thod to live on in this life.
Jing Yunzhao’s lips pursed as she stood up. She followed the old ancestor’s instructions and it was as he had said; The mont she opened her eyes again, she was back in her bedroom.
But at that sa mont, her stomach growled and she rembered the bowl of porridge that she had drunk before entering the space.
Her stomach turned as she recalled that she su?ered from diarrhoea for the whole night. In addition, she had a fever the next day due to a night of suffering and needed a week to recover.
Ye Qin’s passing was also within this one week, but Jing Yunzhao was too weak to attend the funeral. The family and friends of the Qiao and Ye families shad and criticized her for a long ti after that. No one was there to sympathize with her even when she was wronged.
Jing Yunzhao clutched at her stomach in discomfort and ran out of the room only to find the bathroom tightly shut by soone inside.
“Is it Jiejie? I’m sorry, but my stomach hurts. You’re gonna have to wait...” Qiao Hongye’s voice carried a noticeable hint of laughter.
In her past life, Jing Yunzhao had drunk the porridge without a fight, so this event of Qiao Hongye guarding the bathroom didn’t happen. Unfortunately, Jing Yunzhao had no other choice at this mont. She rembered the Space and quickly went back to her room so she could enter it.
Her stomach ache felt less intense after she entered the space.
Jing Yunzhao thought about things for a while and took out the scroll. She dropped a drop of blood onto the first piece of jade.
In an instant, the green light from the scroll gathered together, and things flashed through Jing Yunzhao’s eyes in a blur. They seed like letters joining together, forming sentences. Before the blink of an eye, a staggering amount of information had entered and ingrained into her mind.
She never knew her mind could be controlled like this. Those letters and words seed clearer than anything she had ever known. All she had to do was to just think of that topic and all the information regarding it would naturally co to her.
But looking back at things, she was surprised.
No wonder the ancestor told her not to be greedy. Just this one piece of jade contained a thousand books’ worth of information!
Qiao Hongye had put laxatives in her porridge, so Jing Yunzhao searched through her mind and indeed found many solutions to treat her diarrhoea. Unfortunately, while all the prescriptions for dicine were all very effective, but she had nothing on her, where would she get the herbs? Even if she had the ingredients, she had no materials and instrunts to work with.
Of course, she could have just bought dicine, but the point was that she was penniless!
It is di?cult to save a fire using water from far away; By the ti she got to it, it might have already been too late. Whether it was Eastern or Western dicine, they were both useless to her right now.
Jing Yunzhao was panicking, but she forced herself to calm down and continue to think of other thods. When her heart was finally calm, sothing else began to surface in her mind.
Massaging pressure points!
Press five fingers together. Gently massage the lower abdon area and press downward. Tianshu, Guanyuan, the big intestine pressure point, the arm three li pressure point. Then gently press down on the qihai using either the palm or the thumb...
(T/N: I know nothing about pressure points. “五指并拢，轻柔腹部，推下腕、天枢、关元、大肠俞、手三里等穴位，再以掌或拇指揉压气海......”)
Jing Yunzhao quickly did as per the instructions. Only once the places she massaged felt sore, did her stomach feel better. She got a little excited and continued, before everything cald down soon after.
She rembered that Qiao Hongye was still guarding the bathroom and sneered.
She likes being in the bathroom that much? Fine, then don’t co out tonight!
