Chapter 5 Spirit Spring



That's fine. Luo Xi took out Chu Zhe's solo photo from her backpack, which was actually her spatial storage, and handed it over: "Then I'll trouble you. His name is Chu Zhe."

"If you run into him, tell him that Rosie is here too, and pay attention to the code."

Chu Zhe was already unconscious before falling in, and probably didn't even know he was there.

It turned out that their benefactor was named Luo Xi, and the Wei family of three kept those two words firmly in their hearts.

Wei Qing was startled as he gazed at the small elephant that seemed to leap off the paper like a real person. He had never seen such superb painting skills before, but he remained calm on the surface: "Don't worry, benefactor, if we see it, we will definitely pass on the message."

Luo Xi nodded to the three of them, then found a relatively clean spot under a tree that was far from the corpse and sat down.

It's almost noon. I should eat something first and then take care of my internal injuries, otherwise I won't have the energy to deal with anything that happens later.

It's good that time doesn't pass in space; things are the same when they come out as they were when they were put in.

So before each mission, Chu Zhe would prepare a lot of delicious food and put it in her space for the team members to use.

But after just one glance, Rose collapsed to the ground in frustration.

She had forgotten that during the final days of fighting the mutated plants, she ate only prepared bento boxes, which she had long since finished.

It seems I'll have to cook it fresh; I can't just eat bread again.

Luo Xi moved two stones and stacked them into a makeshift stove. Looking at the busy people around him, he paused for a moment, then pretended to take out a two-palm-sized, dark iron pot from his backpack and placed it on the stove.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he used his spatial power to scoop up some water that he had previously stored in his space and put it in the pot. After thinking for a moment, he took out a large handful of noodles, two eggs, and a large piece of cured meat and placed them on the stone.

Sigh, until we find a chef and housekeeper like Chu Zhe, we'll just have to make do with what we have.

Just as she was about to get up to find firewood, Aunt Wei came over carrying a bundle of dry firewood.

"My benefactor, are you making something to eat? Do you need my help?" She glanced at the ingredients on the stone.

Luo looked at the smiling aunt, hesitated for a moment, and then refused.

She's just boiling noodles; she's not that useless.

Aunt Wei didn't mind, put down the firewood in her arms and left: "If my benefactor needs any help, just let me know."

They were about to leave, but Wei Qing said that there were so many corpses here, the weather was getting hot, and this road was an official road, which might bring plague.

So they wanted to bury the body before leaving, thinking that the bandits on the mountain wouldn't come down anytime soon.

Everyone was hungry, so they made something to eat.

Luo Xi was also stunned when she saw the Wei family burying the body.

However, he only hesitated for a moment before starting a fire to boil water and prepare to cook noodles.

The water still had some time before it boiled, so Luo Xi decided to use this time to cultivate and heal her internal injuries.

This cultivation method was developed by the base after the apocalypse, and it is quite effective in restoring superpowers.

Huh? As soon as Luo Xi started cultivating, he noticed something different. The energy here was so abundant, it was two or three times that of the apocalypse.

Luo Xi's lips curved upwards in a smile. Falling into ancient times seems to be quite nice.

As she pondered this, she increased her cultivation speed. However, when her supernatural ability reached five-tenths full, she could no longer retain the absorbed energy. It all slipped out through the cracks in the crystal core and vanished without a trace in no time.

Luo Xi's heart skipped a beat.

If that's the case, not only will her superpowers be greatly reduced, but she might also be unable to upgrade them in the future.

This is not a good thing.

Suddenly, a fist-sized stone emitting a faint green light caught her attention in a corner of the space.

It was the thing she dug out of the mutated plant.

Why does it seem like there's a layer of moisture on it, and it even smells so tempting?

Loxi leaned closer and saw that a thin layer of liquid had accumulated at the bottom of the white porcelain bowl containing the stones, probably only enough for a mouthful.

The vibrant atmosphere made Rosie swallow hard.

She cautiously extended a finger, dabbed some of it, and put it in her mouth.

Suddenly, a warm current melted in my mouth, and my head, which had been a little dizzy from not sleeping for several days, instantly cleared up.

Rosie's eyes lit up instantly.

Could this be the kind of magical spring described in novels?

Yes, yes!

When she was bored in the apocalypse, Luo Xi loved to read all sorts of novels she had collected. When she saw the Spirit Spring Space, she was extremely envious.

It's true that her space is quite large, but it lacks a spiritual spring.

That's great, I finally got what I wanted.

Without further hesitation, she picked up the bowl and drank it down. Sure enough, the external wounds that had been throbbing in her body healed quickly, and her internal injuries were more than 50% healed as well. She felt refreshed and invigorated instantly.

"With this, doctors and medicines will all have to take a backseat."

Luo Xi quickly found a high-end transparent wine flask, carefully placed the fluorescent stone inside, and then moved the flask to a prominent table in the center of the space.

After doing all this, Luo Xi opened her eyes with satisfaction, but... what's going on here?

"What are you doing?" she asked the baby beside her.

The person who had been keeping their eyes closed suddenly spoke, startling Wei Zhou: "Yes, my benefactor sister, you're awake."

His chubby, three-headed figure wobbled for a while before regaining its balance.

"Phew, thank goodness it didn't fall off." The child breathed a long sigh of relief, glanced at Luo Xi, and said shyly, "I was trying to shield myself from the sun because my benefactor sister was hot."

Luo Xi was stunned for a moment before realizing that the sun was shining on the spot where she was meditating.

And this tiny person is trying their best to hold up an umbrella to shield her from the sun.

Her face was flushed from the sun, and her short, chubby arms were trembling slightly from being held up for so long.

Luo Xi chuckled, reached out and grabbed the back of his collar, lifted him up, and put him in her arms.

"What's your name?" she asked.

The baby was stunned for a moment when suddenly found in a sweet and soft embrace.

Wow! His benefactor hugged him!

The child looked at Luo Xi with bright eyes and replied in a clear voice, "My benefactor sister, my name is Wei Zhou."

"The porridge you ate?" Rose teased him deliberately.

"No, no!" the child in the arms said proudly, "It's the boat from the poem 'There are boats to cross the sea, and roads to travel through the mountains.'"

"Daddy said he hopes that Zhouzhou will grow up to be someone who has the courage to overcome difficulties no matter how many obstacles there are."

"Hiss!" Luo Xi turned the little person in his arms around in surprise and looked him over carefully. He was three years old, not thirty, was he?

Were all children in ancient times this amazing?

His explanation instantly transformed the otherwise ordinary character "舟" (boat) into something grand and sophisticated.

"Great name!" Rose gave him a heartfelt thumbs up.

“Zhouzhou thinks so too.” The little baby twisted his fingers nervously.

This kid is interesting. Luo Xi patted his little head and then reached into her pocket, took out a handful of strawberries from her spatial storage and handed them to the child: "You've been shielding me from the sun for half the day, you must be thirsty, have some fruit."
