For seventeen years in the apocalypse, the fields yielded no crops. Lin Man and her mother struggled daily on the brink of starvation and thirst, until one day, she obtained a space.
On the day Lin Man and Lin Cheng got married, the space was upgraded again, as if after the initial upgrade, it had broken through some shackles and could continue to upgrade.
In short, the space expanded again, to about one thousand square meters, but the speed of time did not change. It was still one day outside and about four days inside. But there was a huge earth slope, and night began to appear in the space.
Guan Guan said that this was because Lin Man was the contractor of the space, and Lin Cheng was its contractor, and it was equivalent to the spirit of the space, so the combination of the two had a huge impact on the space, perfecting its rules, and thus the night appeared.
Lin Man didn't understand the principle behind it, but the alternation of day and night in the space was a good thing. He didn't have to draw the curtains when sleeping, and it felt like a paradise.
Because the land became larger, the four small houses that were originally standing side by side were demolished and two small courtyards were created, one for Lin Man and Lin Cheng, and the other for Lin's parents and Lin Xiaomei's family.
Guan Guan also has his own little nest. He is no longer interested in using Lin Cheng's body to experience human life. He may not use it once a week. Instead of standing on his legs and pretending to be Lin Cheng in front of people, he prefers to fly with his wings and take his little brothers with him.
Well, although he would occasionally go crazy, like suddenly appearing in the middle of the night to control Lin Cheng's body, and then wandering around the mountains at night or something.
One day, it landed at the spring in the space and drank a few sips of water. The spring grew larger and overflowed with water. Lin Man tasted it and found it was just ordinary water, nothing special, but using water in the space was much more convenient. Lin Cheng dug several ditches in the fields to divert water, making watering, especially irrigating the rice fields, much easier. He also started raising crabs in the fields.
So Guan Guan not only drank water, but also went to the rice fields to catch crabs to eat.
Buzz~buzz~~
When Guan Guan was pecking a small crab to pieces, he suddenly heard a sound. He turned around and saw that the knife stuck in the small yard of his home (Lin Manlin Cheng's) suddenly began to shake without wind and made a buzzing sound.
The knife was transparent, but the two red lines on it were as red as blood, and if you looked closely, they seemed to be flowing with life.
Guan Guan was curious and abandoned the miserable crab and flew over to take a look.
Sometimes the knife is still, and sometimes it keeps shaking, as if it is coming alive.
Guan Guan looked for a long time, yawned, chirped twice, and adjusted the beautiful feathers on his chest.
At night, Lin Man felt something was different when she entered the space, and then she and Guan Guan squatted there to watch.
"What's wrong with this knife?"
"Are you almost awake?"
"Um?"
"Didn't I tell you? This knife could have been considered a blank for a magical weapon. Your husband used it for so long, it was almost broken, and then you repaired it, which was like carving it again. And then it's been kept in this space. Hmm, how long has it been there?"
Lin Man thought about it and calculated that according to the time in the space, it had been more than 20 years.
"It's been a long time, so it's about to wake up and have its own consciousness."
Lin Man was very surprised. Now that the world was at peace, she didn't even use supernatural weapons much, so she didn't expect the knife to have its own consciousness, and then step into the realm of magic weapons and show great power. But she thought this kind of thing was magical, so she watched it attentively.
This was the scene Lin Cheng saw when he came in. Now he can enter the space freely without having to pass through Lin Man.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Man told him everything again. Lin Cheng was also very happy, but he still had things to do. He touched Lin Man's head and asked, "What do you want to eat tonight?"
Lin Man thought for a moment and said, "Jiajiangmian."
Lin Cheng thought about it and realized that the sauce was ready, but the noodles had to be made fresh. He rolled up his sleeves, asked Lin Man to wait, and went into the kitchen.
Yes, in order to support his wife, or to please his wife, Lin Cheng asked Chen Yu for cooking lessons a long time ago, and now his cooking skills are very good. Because of him as a reference, Lin Zhongrong is often despised, so it is natural for Lin Zhongrong to continue to dislike this son-in-law.
Thinking of that person who always glared at him a few times when they met, Lin Cheng leaned forward and said, "By the way, my parents and little sister will be here tonight, about half an hour later."
This half an hour refers to the time in space, which is only seven or eight minutes outside, because the family has come to visit their home in Ai Valley and will "stay" at their house at night. Lin Cheng came in early to cook.
"Yeah, I know." Lin Man replied. If Lin Zhongrong and the others wanted to come in, they had to be received by Lin Man. Lin Cheng couldn't do that, so he had to come in on his own. Although the two of them shared the space, Lin Man still held the dominant position.
Guan Guan suddenly whispered, "Lin Man, you have to work harder."
"Huh?" Lin Man looked at the guy in confusion.
Guan Guan said, "Lin Cheng's body has been completely transformed, and he has a contract with me. His physical strength is stronger than yours."
"So?" Lin Man looked at the kitchen window, "Although I always like to say the word 'fight' to him, we don't plan to really fight." Even if we fight, will he dare to hit himself?
Guan Guan pecked him, his black eyes glaring at her angrily, "His physique is better than yours, which means he'll live longer than you, understand?"
"Huh?" Lin Man was stunned. She knew that she would live longer than ordinary people, and she also knew that Lin Cheng would live the same way. It was precisely because they both had longer lives than ordinary people that they were more compatible, but she really didn't expect this.
Guan Guan said: "His body has been transformed by zombie energy, and he has broken through a barrier. As long as he is not hungry or thirsty, living to one or two hundred years old is not a problem. But you don't have that. Although you have the effect of spiritual energy, it's okay to live to one hundred and twenty or thirty years old, but it will be more difficult to live more than that, and you will age quickly in the later stages. Moreover, now he has a sword that is about to become a magic weapon, but you have nothing." His tone was very anxious for Lin Man.
Lin Man felt heavy in her heart after hearing what it said. Although one hundred and twenty or thirty was not bad, she was afraid of comparison. She and Lin Cheng were a couple. No matter who left the other and died first, it would be a tragic thing, not to mention the situation where one was still young and the other was already very old. That was not just tragic.
But after thinking about it, Lin Man looked at Guan Guan warily: "What do you want?"
Guan Guan hehehe chirped: "Um, I want to borrow your body."
Lin Man opened his eyes wide: "Didn't you borrow it from Lin Cheng?" And he was obviously fed up with it.
Could it be that he is tired of Lin Cheng and that’s why he has set his eyes on her?
Guan Guan said sheepishly, "I want to try a girl's body so I can know whether I want to be a boy or a girl."
Lin Man: "Are you genderless?"
Guan Guan was embarrassed and angry: "I am a fairy bird, isn't this normal?"
Lin Man was bewildered. Is this normal? She thought to herself, "You sound so unworldly, but how come you don't poop just like you eat? And you poop everywhere."
Lin Man thought for a moment: "If I lend my body to you, will it become stronger? Will it add a few decades to my life?"
Guan Guan held his head high and puffed out his chest: "I have figured out a method of cultivation. As long as you learn it, you can practice for decades more."
Lin Man looked at it suspiciously, and Guan Guan lowered his voice: "Well, it's a small section of a set of cultivation techniques that I remember. Although it's only a small section, it's enough for you."
Lin Man narrowed his eyes. "At first, you only remembered the contract with me and how to form the spiritual seal. Later, there was an additional contract with Lin Cheng, and now there is an additional key to cultivation."
The supervisor said aggrievedly, "I will remember it bit by bit, but what I can remember is limited."
Lin Man nodded slightly. There were only a few of them in all these years, which was indeed very limited.
She thought about it and decided to discuss it with Lin Cheng. After all, if this matter was done, Lin Cheng would have to help her keep an eye on it and not let Guan Guan do anything wrong.
Lin Cheng was silent for a moment after hearing this. He was naturally unwilling, but the matter was important and there was no reason to refuse, so he nodded. However, he and Guan Guan strictly set a timetable. Things like suddenly taking away control of the body in the middle of the night to go for a night walk were out of the question, and the whole process had to be under his supervision.
In short, there were too many terms and conditions, and Guan Guan wanted to bargain. Lin Cheng's eyes fell on the trembling long sword, and his eyes were a little cold. Guan Guan immediately shrank his neck. Oh my god, this guy is getting more and more scary.
Afterwards, Lin Cheng had a conversation with Guan Guan behind Lin Man's back.
"Tell me about this kind of thing next time." Lin Cheng said with a very calm expression, "It will scare her." He was talking about lifespan. It was also the first time he knew that his lifespan would be much longer than Lin Man's. After being shocked, he was not too worried. Anyway, Lin Man was gone, and he probably would not live alone. But it would naturally be best if they could live longer together.
Guan Guan was secretly complaining, but he didn't see that she was scared at all.
Lin Man was not scared, but she did feel a little pressured, so after learning the key to cultivation from Guan Guan, she practiced it meticulously. In fact, it was to breathe in and out spiritual energy, allowing the spiritual energy to follow a pattern in the body. It was quite mysterious, good for the body, and could also make the spiritual power in the body become deeper little by little.
She asked Lin Cheng to practice as well, and asked her parents to practice as well. After all, good things can be shared by everyone. She also wanted to find an opportunity to let the people in the base practice as well. Now the spiritual energy in Dayan Mountain is quite rich, so practicing shouldn't be too difficult. As a chief, she is happy to share good things with the people in the base, so that we can all benefit.
Moreover, not only people with special abilities, but even ordinary people may be able to practice it. This was confirmed after her mother also developed some spiritual energy.
Anyway, she let Guan Guan use her body, and in return she got a lot of hugs. And Guan Guan was also very particular about using her body, not doing anything weird, not digging in the dirt, scratching the wall, picking her nose, etc. Every time she was like falling asleep, she had no memory after waking up, and her body did not feel tired or anything like that.
After a year of experiencing it, Guanguan's frequency gradually decreased, and he would often meditate and retreat. I guess he was thinking about how to choose his gender, or even become a human? After all, he was experiencing a human body.
Lin Man is looking forward to it.
The knife finally woke up, but its consciousness was not very clear. According to Lin Cheng, it had the consciousness of a three-year-old child and was very dependent on him. Lin Man found it very interesting and wanted to make a similar magic weapon embryo for himself and nurture it slowly, but this was not something that could be done just by wanting to.
Within a year, after learning the key to cultivation, the people at the Peace Base saw their physical fitness and abilities rise to a new level. The number of people with special abilities increased, and the children showed even greater results in their cultivation. These special abilities released energy, or spiritual energy, which was returned to the environment. This, in turn, helped the plants and trees grow better, generating even more spiritual energy. This formed a virtuous cycle.
Lin Man thought this was a good idea.
When the other four bases learned about this, they were shocked again and came to seek the scriptures again. These matters were handled by Lin Cheng and Lin Zhongrong. Lin Man did not deal with those people. Anyway, the key to cultivation was finally given away, but it also brought a lot of benefits.
As a result, more and more people started to practice cultivation, and the ecology of Dayan Mountain and its surrounding areas recovered better and better. The bases in the north were a little worse, but many years later, after Lin Man helped them set up a huge soul-locking formation, the recovery speed of the ecological environment of each base also accelerated.
A few years later, the Chinese, with greatly increased strength, ran over with full confidence to destroy the zombie king and his zombie army on the other side of the ocean, then waved their sleeves and ran back easily.
The world is getting better and better, and the space is getting better and better. Lin Man gave birth to a baby with Lin Cheng at the age of 28. Lin Cheng, who became a father at an old age, was so happy that he didn't know what to do. He pretended not to hear Lin Zhongrong's ridicule. At this time, Lin Man and Lin Cheng looked at each other and felt something.
The space has been upgraded again. Hmm, the area has expanded a lot, and the terrain has also become undulating. Is it because of the birth of this baby? Lin Man looked at the child with a smile, looking forward to witnessing this child grow up bit by bit, and also looking forward to what the space will become. Will it one day become a huge and vast world?
