Chapter 5 Unlocking Water Spacetime
Of course, she definitely couldn't move such a heavy thing, so she could only hold it and silently recite the Gate of Time and Space in her mind to teleport the thing to the transfer station, and then purchase the medium tools to put the big stone on the automatic trading cabinet.
Selling stones is actually like gambling on stones. If you are lucky, a stone can be worth several virtual coins or even more. If you are unlucky, you can’t sell it for a good price at all.
Perhaps God opened his eyes today, and this big stone was sold for ten coins. The balance of her virtual currency became more than forty, just a little bit away from fifty, which gave her hope.
Su Tai excitedly left the Space-Time Gate Transfer Station and continued to explore in the stream. She sold a few large rocks of good quality one after another, and finally her virtual currency balance exceeded 50. The five Space-Time Gates lit up at the same time, and a few words appeared on the screen: "Do you want to spend 50 virtual coins to unlock the Space-Time Gate?"
Su Tai chose "yes" and immediately walked quickly towards the gate of time and space - water.
When she opened the door, a dazzling light came. When Su Tai adjusted to the light and opened her eyes, she found herself standing next to a small spring. The spring was thin and water was gurgling out. There was not much water in the pit, but it was very clear.
She was pleasantly surprised. She squatted down, scooped up a handful of water, splashed it happily, and washed her muddy hands. Then she went back to the Space-Time Gate Transfer Station and found that there was an extra button about the Space-Time Gate - Water on the screen. At the same time, her virtual currency balance became 2.
According to the explanation on the screen, she has only unlocked the most basic water space-time and can only see a small spring. She can upgrade to the next level by accumulating 500 virtual coins.
You can also use 1 virtual currency to buy one ton of water, or use 50 virtual coins to purchase the right to use a small spring. The spring can be placed at a specific location in time and space using media tools, and once the location is determined, it cannot be changed.
If you want to place it in other locations, you need to spend another 50 virtual coins to purchase the right to use the small spring eye.
The media tools are not expensive, but the springs are expensive. The right to use a small spring costs fifty virtual coins. By the time she saves enough money, the opportunity is gone.
Not long after she came out of the time and space gate transfer station, Su Chunlin and his wife and two younger brothers came back.
Su Chunlin walked in with a serious look on his face and said to Han, "The village chief has decided to dig a well. Every household has to pay. Based on the number of people, each person will pay ten cents, so the total cost is fifty cents."
Han was in a dilemma. "We really can't even take out a penny now. If I had been shameless enough to go back to my parents' house to borrow money before, but Zhongmen Village also needs to dig a well, and my father and his family may not be able to come up with that much money. I can't borrow money from them."
Su Chunlin gritted his teeth and was silent for a long time. He slammed the table and stood up, "If it doesn't work, I'll go to the county to ask my eldest brother to borrow some."
Su Chunlin's parents died early, leaving the three siblings to depend on each other. In order to let her two younger brothers survive, Su Chunlin's eldest sister married far away. In order to escape poverty, Su Chunlin's brother Su Chunsen gritted his teeth and sold himself as a slave to the Bai family in the county. The money he got helped Su Chunlin to buy his current family business. Later, Su Chunsen married a slave of the Bai family, and now the whole family are servants of the Bai family.
Su Chunlin has always felt guilty towards his brother and really didn't want to trouble Su Chunsen unless it was absolutely necessary.
Han hung his head in frustration and lamented.
Su Tai was a little surprised. She didn't even know that their family had relatives in the county town!
Without waiting for her to ask, Su Chunlin got up and went back to the house.
The next day, there were obviously many more villagers leaving Dongmen Village than usual. It seemed that everyone was going out to borrow money.
Su Tai shook her head and continued to carry the wicker basket to the creek. She had sold almost all the stones near their home, and because of the severe drought, no one paid attention to these things, otherwise they would have noticed something wrong.
In order to hide from others, she decided to go into the mountains.
Anyway, Su Chunlin is not here these days, so Han has to go and help dig the well. Su Zhan and Su Ming will also go over to join in the fun. Since no one is watching her at home, it doesn't matter if she goes away.
Before Su Tai entered the mountains, she only knew that all the edible things in the mountains had been pulled out, but she had no idea of the specific situation.
Now seeing the desolation of the mountains with her own eyes, she suddenly felt a little nervous. If the drought continued, everyone would die.
Thinking of this, she quickly quickened her pace and wandered around in the mountains for most of the day, but didn't find anything good. However, she met a man who looked familiar but she couldn't remember where he had seen him.
Shen Yi came here today to help find a well digging site, but she didn't expect to meet the girl she protected yesterday in this place.
The two of them looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
Just as Shen Yi was about to speak, a shout suddenly came from not far away, "How is it? Is there a suitable place?"
Su Changxi came over panting, and was obviously puzzled when he saw Su Tai, "Xiao Tai, why did you run into the mountain by yourself? Go back quickly!"
As he said this, he quickly looked at Shen Yi and introduced: “This is your uncle Chunlin’s daughter.”
Shen Yi suddenly realized and blurted out, "Is that the one whose engagement was broken off by the Xiong family?"
Su Tai's face turned dark instantly.
Su Changxi was also a little embarrassed. "It's all in the past. Let's not talk about it."
Seeing that Su Tai was unhappy, Shen Yi apologized earnestly, "I didn't mean to laugh at Miss Su, and I was just rejected for engagement, so Miss Su, please don't think too much."
Now it was Su Tai and Su Changxi's turn to be shocked.
Su Changxi was particularly excited. He jumped three feet high and asked, "When was your engagement cancelled? Didn't the Mo family arrange the engagement with your family in order to repay their gratitude?"
The corners of Shen Yi's mouth curled up with a hint of ridicule, "Maybe it's because I have no father or mother, so the Mo family looks down on me."
"Asshole! How can this repayment be the same as other things? If your father hadn't saved Chunlin and the other four, he wouldn't have lost his life. Everyone agreed that whoever gave birth to a girl first would get engaged to your family. But Mo Laotian had a daughter first, and he took the initiative to go to your family to discuss the marriage. How come he regretted it in the end? What a piece of shit!"
Su Changxi cursed and sweared. He glanced at Su Tai and added, "I think none of the people in Ximen Village are good! You two must be so unlucky to be engaged to someone from Ximen Village. It's unlucky!"
Su Tai and Shen Yi didn't expect Su Changxi to be so angry, and they looked at each other silently.
Su Tai touched her nose and stepped forward to persuade him, "Uncle Village Chief, I don't care about it anymore, and you don't have to be angry. Besides, I beat up the people from the Xiong family, so I can vent my anger."
Shen Yi nodded and testified on the side.
Su Changxi's face turned grim, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Did you knock Xiong Dao down yesterday?"
Su Tai shook her head like a rattle. "No, no, no, I don't have that much ability! He was beaten by me and went to ask for help, but he was hit by a stick. What does it have to do with me?"
Su Changxi breathed a sigh of relief. "It's good that it wasn't you. I heard that Xiong Dao suffered serious internal injuries. The Xiong family is clamoring to find the culprit to pay compensation. It was so chaotic yesterday, and no one knows who did it! Even if they really find out who did it, they won't admit it. Don't make a fuss about it and cause yourself trouble."
