Chapter 113 How Hard Is It to Fill Your Stomach? (Sang Zhitao's palm...)
The wound on Sang Zhitao's palm caused a slight stinging sensation, making it impossible for her to ignore its presence for a moment.
"It's nothing." Sang Zhitao tried to look up and scratch her head, but was stopped by the gauze in her hand.
Seeing this, Sang Leping took a toothpick from the side, carefully placed it on Sang Zhitao's head, and gently tapped it twice.
"A little lower." Sang Zhitao's eyes narrowed in comfort, and she didn't forget to instruct her brother on where to apply force.
"Okay~" Sang Leping smiled indulgently, holding a toothpick and following her instructions to tickle her.
"What has Tao Tao been through?" Zhang Su carefully examined Sang Zhi Tao's body using tweezers and a specially made instrument.
Sang Zhitao sighed deeply before recounting her experience.
Team Leader Sheng An is now basically stationed near the observation room, fearing that he might not be able to collect data in time when Sang Zhitao returns.
Upon hearing Sang Zhitao's words, he frowned deeply: "So the giant world and the microscopic bubbles share the same worldview?"
Sang Zhitao thought for a moment before hesitatingly speaking, "To be precise, the microscopic world and the bubble world are just a corner of the giant world's worldview."
"Why... can't you replace the protagonist anymore?" Sheng An frowned, looking at the notebook in his hand, his face full of confusion.
Sang Zhitao ate the mini snacks her brother brought her, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "I think it might be related to the connection between the three worlds, but I don't understand why the first two worlds were transformed, but this one is no longer working."
Lin Jing, who had been listening for a while, suddenly interjected, "Could it be related to the world?"
Team Leader Sheng An and Sang Zhitao turned to look at her curiously.
Lin Jing pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and then said, "You said that this world is very special, that it is a fusion of three books. So, Tao Tao's current situation can be considered one of the drawbacks?"
Team Leader Sheng An shook his head slightly: "I don't think so."
Sang Zhitao, however, swung her legs nonchalantly and said with a smile, "It's alright, we'll find out eventually."
Seeing her carefree attitude, Sang Leping couldn't help but poke her cheek with a toothpick: "Be careful, you forgot again!"
Sang Zhitao pouted, placed her hands on either side of her cheeks, and looked at Zhang Su with feigned pitifulness: "Sister-in-law, he bullied me."
Zhang Su blushed and couldn't help but pat Sang Leping on the shoulder.
Sang Leping rolled her eyes at her sister before taking Zhang Su's hand and explaining in a low voice.
Team Leader Sheng An ignored the young man who was flaunting his relationship, flipped through his notebook for a while, and then looked at Sang Zhitao and said, "This is a world that mainly revolves around Chinese herbal medicine. Don't worry about anything else today, quickly learn about Chinese herbal medicine."
Sang Zhitao was taken aback, not expecting to have an extra job after returning home, but thinking about the unfamiliar world, she didn't say much and nodded in agreement.
"I'll find the book about the world of giants for you later and do a plot analysis for you as soon as possible. Please read it carefully." Team Leader Sheng An made the arrangements without delay and quickly left with his notebook.
Sang Leping gently patted Sang Zhitao's head: "It seems you have a lot of tasks to do before you go back, so I won't bother you any longer."
"Do you not want to bother me, or do you want to have some alone time with your sister-in-law?" Sang Zhitao teased.
Sang Leping gave a reproachful look, ignored her, and left with Zhang Su.
After seeing them off, Sang Zhitao looked at the comprehensive guide to traditional Chinese medicine that Lin Jing had prepared for her on the electronic screen before leaving.
After obtaining the original plot and world analysis from Team Leader Sheng An, Sang Zhitao suspected that understanding the original plot could also be counted towards the world exploration score. Sure enough, she returned to the world of giants that very night.
It was still dark here, and Yu Cao hadn't gotten up yet. Sang Zhi Tao crawled out from her hair, looked at the table that was practically a thousand feet away from her, and the delicious food on the table, and sighed deeply.
"Luckily, I ate a lot on Earth." She rubbed her stomach, worrying about the potential hunger she might experience.
Yu Cao woke up quickly. After washing up and changing her clothes, she took some food and prepared to leave.
Sang Zhitao knew that Yu Cao was going to the herb garden to see the herbs, but she was too lazy to follow. She just lay on her pillow and yawned.
Sang Zhitao, who was about two centimeters tall, was no bigger than a sesame seed compared to the size of a ten-meter-tall giant. So even though she was lying openly on the pillow, Yu Cao did not notice her at all.
Seeing that Yu Cao couldn't see her even like this, Sang Zhitao thought about her hiding efforts all morning and twitched her lips helplessly.
Having finally reached the bedside, Sang Zhitao couldn't help but shudder at the distance from the table to the floor: "I'm afraid of heights?!"
She laughed and made a self-deprecating remark before pulling a thread from the bed sheet. The thread was about the thickness of her wrist, but since it was fabric, it wasn't like the scaly hair from yesterday that had almost scratched her hand.
She climbed down the bed sheet, pulling the threads outwards as she went, and after a lot of effort, she finally reached the tassel part at the very bottom.
Seeing that it was still about five centimeters above the ground, Sang Zhitao frowned.
This distance is not low for someone of this size.
Looking up and around, she saw Yu Cao's slippers lying on the ground not far away.
Sang Zhitao quickly climbed onto the tassels and, like a monkey, jumped around on them until she reached the top of the slippers.
She took a deep breath, closed her eyes tightly, and jumped!
Feeling herself slam into something soft, Sang Zhitao sighed with relief, "Luckily, in the story's setting, it's not summer, and Yu Cao is wearing cotton slippers, otherwise..."
Sang Zhitao shook herself before sliding down the curve of her slippers to the ground.
Looking at the table in the distance, Sang Zhitao sighed deeply and walked quickly forward.
Halfway there, Sang Zhitao was too exhausted to walk any further. She lay down on the ground, panting heavily, staring at the corner of a table in the distance, feeling somewhat sentimental about how difficult it was for her to live in this world.
Just then, she noticed a sunflower seed shell that had fallen there sometime earlier, not far from her.
Sang Zhitao got up and walked to the sunflower seed shells in the Giant World. Looking at the sunflower seed shells, which were about ten centimeters in size, she couldn't help but twitch her lips.
With a deep sigh, she used all her strength to split the sunflower seed shell open.
After several attempts, she finally managed to split the sunflower seed shells into a size that was suitable for her to hold.
Holding the melon seed shell stick, Sang Zhitao sighed and continued walking forward with difficulty.
After resting twice more, Sang Zhitao finally came to the corner of the table.
Looking at the table, which was ridiculously high for her, Sang Zhitao sighed and pulled out two palm-sized daggers from her waist.
This was given to her by the spirit; it could help cut up some debris while she was working, or it could be used as a shovel to dig things up.
Sang Zhitao pursed her lips, took several deep breaths, and then plunged the dagger into the corner of the table.
Fortunately, the table wasn't made of very hard wood, and she managed to insert the dagger with just a little force.
Holding the dagger in both hands, he alternately stuck it into the corner of the table, and slowly led her up the stairs.
Sang Zhitao didn't know how long she had been climbing. She only felt that her hands were so numb that she couldn't move them anymore when she finally climbed onto the table.
He lay helplessly on the table, two daggers lying on either side of his body.
Sang Zhitao felt her chest about to explode and kept panting heavily.
Before she could rest properly, Yu Cao returned exhausted.
Sang Zhitao quickly tucked the dagger into her pouch, then sat cross-legged on the table, wondering if Yu Cao would notice her.
Yu Cao didn't even notice the miniature person on her table until she finished eating and cleaned up the table.
Sang Zhitao watched indifferently as Yu Cao went to wash up and rest, then dragged her heavy body and climbed onto the fruit plate on the table.
Looking at the strange fruit, which was much larger than her former tulip cottage, Sang Zhitao took a deep breath, took out her dagger, and poked at the fruit a few times.
Using the juice from the fruit, Sang Zhitao wiped the dagger before digging out a few more pieces of fruit from a different spot.
"Ptooey! Ptooey!" Sang Zhitao felt that the fruit she had eaten was sour and astringent, and she spat it out for a long time before her numb mouth recovered.
Looking down at the spot where she had dug out the fruit, Sang Zhitao realized that she hadn't dug out any fruit flesh at all, only the peel.
Leaning helplessly against the fruit, Sang Zhitao listlessly chopped at it with a dagger.
After a long while, Sang Zhitao finally saw that pink flesh had appeared under the white flesh of the fruit she had been digging out for so long.
Sang Zhitao perked up, took the dagger and slicing hard, leaving a palm-sized piece of pink fruit in her hand.
Unable to resist, she put it in her mouth, and Sang Zhitao's spirits lifted instantly.
This fruit is extremely juicy, like a watermelon on Earth, and its texture is like ice cream—it melts in your mouth.
"It's so delicious..." Sang Zhitao couldn't help but exclaim.
She didn't forget to use the dagger to stab a few more times until she had filled her stomach, and only then did Sang Zhitao breathe a sigh of relief.
Looking to the side, Sang Zhitao realized that in order to eat this piece of fruit, she had actually carved out a channel of nearly one centimeter in the fruit.
Sang Zhitao didn't climb out either, but lay comfortably on the white peel and took a nap.
They would sleep, eat, and then sleep again, until they had emptied about a third of the fruit before the mulberry peach finally emerged from it.
That day, Yu Cao happened to be sitting at the table, not going out. This herb was doing something.
Sang Zhitao walked to the fruit plate, sat cross-legged in front of Yu Cao, and watched Yu Cao's actions.
Yu Cao stared at the herbs in her hand, seemingly hesitant. After a long while, she picked up a fruit, peeled it, and took a few bites.
"Huh?" Yu Cao frowned as she looked at the fruit in her hand, which had mysteriously lost a third of its flesh.
She turned the fruit over and looked at a small hole that had been poked out of it, and couldn't help but say, "How did it get eaten by insects..."
Sang Zhitao couldn't help but roll her eyes. She wanted to argue that she wasn't a bug, but when she thought about the size comparison between herself and the other person, she realized that she was almost the same size as a bug. So she gave up the idea of arguing.
There was nothing she could do for the time being, so she could only lie bored on the fruit plate, watching the herbs that Yu Cao had just been playing with.
“This…it looks familiar…” Sang Zhitao stared at the herbs, feeling like she was missing something.
