Song Yuluan ran to the ticket machine and took a closer look as Feng Yuanning instructed.
The ticket machine's screen was facing away from the glass door, easily visible as you approached it. The text on the screen read: "Please purchase a ticket to access the backyard from here. The following themed gardens are available: Fountain Park (50 wen per hour, free entry for guests staying in the hotel with room cards), Ice Spring and Hot Spring (500 wen per session, limited to one entry per day)."
Thinking that the latter was the hot spring mentioned by the owner, Song Yuluan couldn't help but feel excited.
She already knew how to operate the ticket machine. She could buy tickets just by touching the screen, which was magical.
She calmed herself down and when she raised her hand, her fingers trembled.
After a lot of effort, she finally clicked on the line that read "Ice Spring and Hot Springs." Suddenly, a text message popped up on the screen: "Do you want to purchase a pass to the 'Ice Spring and Hot Springs' themed garden? (Reminder: Please insert coins before purchasing, otherwise your purchase will be rejected.) Confirm, return."
Song Yuluan was so nervous that she could hardly breathe. She held her chest and took a deep breath. Was there really hope for her to recover her martial arts?
At this time, Ling Jing, who had followed her, took out a piece of silver and put it into the coin slot of the machine: "Junior sister, calm down and don't get excited."
He clicked the "Confirm" option on behalf of Song Yuluan, and the ticket machine immediately spit out an exquisite card.
There was a colorful landscape printed on the front of the card. It was a circular pool with a curved stone railing in the middle, dividing the circular pool into two halves.
On both sides of the circular pool are rows of houses.
There are some patterns and words on the back of the card, with "Ice Spring & Hot Spring" written in the middle and "Xianyuan Hotel Welcomes You" written in the lower right corner.
Ling Jing stuffed the card into Song Yuluan's hand and said, "Come in quickly. Junior sister, try not to get your hopes up too much. If it doesn't work out this time, don't get discouraged. I'll go find the owner to order food first. After you finish soaking in the hot spring, remember to come to my room for dinner."
"How can you pour cold water on me like this?" Song Yuluan finally calmed down a little. She glared at Ling Jing unhappily, took the card, walked forward and opened the glass door.
I saw that the scene behind the glass door had changed dramatically. Behind the door was a gravel ground with a wide view. Standing outside the door, I could see the distant scene clearly: a round pond, houses, and green trees.
Song Yuluan turned around in shock and asked Ling Jing, "Brother, did you see what was behind the door? The same door can actually lead to different places!"
Ling Jing nodded solemnly: "I see."
He tried to take a step forward and stretched out his hand to explore. Sure enough, he felt invisible resistance at the door. It was like there was a transparent barrier there, stopping him, who did not have a ticket.
It seems that it is impossible to find a loophole.
Ling Jing took a deep breath and said, "Junior sister, please go in quickly."
Perhaps after his junior sister recovers her martial arts skills, she will dislike him for being too mediocre and eventually separate from him, but he will not stop her.
How could he, in order to keep his junior sister, be willing to break her wings and make her unable to fly again? He didn't want his junior sister to be depressed and unhappy from now on, unable to smile again.
He looked at Song Yuluan deeply, turned around and left, walking towards the restaurant.
Song Yuluan couldn't help but become nervous again. She felt her heart beating like a drum and her feet seemed to be out of her control. She didn't know how she walked in.
She walked forward step by step, following the sign, towards the hot spring area on the right, swiped her card and entered the first room.
The indoor floor was orange, with a huge full-length mirror on the left, a low table, chairs, and a clothes rack on the right, and a small bathtub in the center.
Song Yuluan walked nervously to the right side of the bathtub and almost fell down due to nervousness.
She took off her clothes, hung them on the clothes rack, walked into the bathtub and sat down.
Suddenly, she felt an intense pain and her whole body felt as if it was being torn into pieces by a knife. At the same time, a foul smell of stale decay rushed into her nose.
She was so disgusted that she almost vomited. She looked down in horror and saw black dirt constantly oozing out of the surface of her skin. The foul smell was obviously coming from it.
Such disgusting dirt was actually excreted from her body? It was unbelievable and unbelievable.
The pain became more and more intense. She gritted her teeth and persevered, and finally fainted from the pain.
When she regained consciousness, she found herself leaning against the bathtub, and the intense pain had disappeared.
She immediately tried to circulate her Qi.
The broken tendons and veins in her body did not affect the true energy in her dantian. She just could no longer circulate the true energy through her tendons and veins, and could not continue to practice or perform any moves.
As long as her tendons and veins are reconnected, she will naturally return to normal.
She urged her true energy to move out of her dantian and tried to enter her tendons and veins, but it was unobstructed!
Song Yuluan was overjoyed and quickly stopped practicing to calm her emotions and try to concentrate.
With the lesson learned from her previous obsession, she no longer dared to have too much emotional fluctuation when practicing qigong and cultivating internal energy.
She tried hard to calm herself down, and after a moment, she suddenly realized that she could get the result without practicing qigong or luck.
She tried to hit the water surface of the bathtub with her palm, and saw the water splashing up and hitting the orange chandelier on the ceiling, and then turned into rain pouring down on her head.
Song Yuluan subconsciously held her breath and stood there blinking her eyes. She actually recovered her martial arts skills!
Is this a dream?
She raised her hand and slapped herself. Hiss, it hurt.
It seems that this is not a dream. The pain in a dream shouldn’t be so real, right?
Song Yuluan took a deep breath, washed herself clean, put on her clothes and walked towards the mirror.
I saw the girl in the mirror, she was full of energy, with a rosy complexion, and joy clearly visible in her eyebrows and eyes.
Song Yuluan rubbed her eyebrows, but couldn't wipe away the joy on them. She stood in front of the mirror for a moment, then turned and walked out of the room.
After she came out, the door closed automatically.
She was in no hurry to leave, but stood in front of the door, lost in thought.
There are both hot springs and ice springs here. The effects of the hot springs are so magical, so what effects do the ice springs have?
She walked towards the ice spring area opposite. When she approached the circular pool, she suddenly received a message and learned about the effects of the ice spring and hot spring.
It turns out that the ice spring can actually increase the speed of cultivation by five times, but one can only cultivate in the ice spring for a maximum of two quarters of an hour each time.
But this is still extremely amazing. Practicing in the ice spring for two quarters of an hour every day is actually equivalent to practicing for more than an hour. This greatly improves the efficiency of practice and reduces the time required for practice.
This kind of ice spring is like a life-saving straw for those with less talent.
Of course, for someone as talented as Song Yuluan, it is also icing on the cake.
Song Yuluan walked into the ice spring area, chose a room, but found that there was someone there. She chose again, and there was still someone there.
It seems that other people are also reacting quickly.
She simply walked forward, stopped in front of the last room in the first row, and swiped her card to enter.
After entering the house, she took off her clothes and sat cross-legged in the ice spring bath.
Bingquan was indeed worthy of its name. As soon as she sat down, she felt a chill that penetrated deep into her bones, and she shivered uncontrollably from the cold.
Driven by this chill, the internal Qi began to circulate automatically, actively resisting the extreme coldness of the pool water.
However, the speed of automatic circulation of true qi is not fast, and is even slightly slower than normal practice.
She tried to calm her mind and for some reason, she was able to quickly put aside all distracting thoughts, and almost instantly entered the state and began to practice qigong.
This time, the speed of Qi circulation was indeed greatly increased, and it should have indeed reached a five-fold increase.
Or, take this opportunity to try to break through the realm again?
Her cultivation level is the ninth level of the acquired realm, only one step away from the innate realm.
However, she had failed twice in a row before. When she tried for the third time, she was so impatient and unable to break through that she became obsessed with it.
She didn't know where the problem lay. Was it because she hadn't accumulated enough experience or her mindset wasn't right? She just didn't understand.
Although they were all disciples of the Master of Jianshan Mountain, her senior sister and junior brother had successfully advanced to the Innate Realm, but she, the second disciple, was unable to break through and even failed twice in a row. The last time, she became a cripple, lost all face, and her future was ruined.
Thinking of her previous failure, she felt a little hesitant, but she just practiced step by step.
She continued to practice, but because her realm had already been perfected, her cultivation had made no progress. If she didn't continue to break through, she would probably be stuck at this level forever.
She gritted her teeth, mustered her courage, and attempted to reach the Innate Realm again.
Unexpectedly, to her surprise, this time she broke through the barrier as if it were a piece of cake, and she broke through the barrier easily!
She did not fail again, and she finally succeeded in breaking through to the innate realm!
She tried hard to calm down and circulated the Qi for another cycle before concluding the exercise and returning all the Qi to her Dantian.
Song Yuluan opened her eyes and let out a breath of relief, all the gloom in her heart dissipated at this moment.
She stood up and was surprised to find that she had been moved out of the bathtub at some point. When she tried to walk back into the bathtub, she encountered an invisible barrier and was unable to enter no matter what.
It seemed that the time limit for her practice had expired, so she didn't worry too much about it. She got up, put on her clothes, shoes and socks, opened the door and left.
…
At the same time, in Changling County, not far from Xianyuan Hotel.
After Qi Borong checked in at the yamen, he called all his detectives to post notices on the street, which attracted many curious people.
The content of the notice is related to Xianyuan Hotel.
As a member of Xuan Jingsi, Qi Borong received orders from Xuan Jingsi last night.
So this morning, he led his subordinates to the streets to post notices, telling the people not to be afraid of the Xianyuan Hotel, as the government had already determined that the hotel was harmless.
He didn't understand why the Xuanjing Division issued such an order, but doing so could at least be considered as appeasing the people. The hotel was too close to the south gate of the county town, so at least this would give the people living nearby some peace of mind, right?
In addition to posting notices in the county town, according to instructions, he also planned to take people to nearby villages to spread the word.
The effect of government endorsement is naturally not low.
On that day, more and more people were attracted to the Xianyuan Hotel. Those who had no money went to the vending machines to shop, while those who had money went to the restaurant to have a big meal.
This resulted in Feng Yuanning receiving more guests today.
These guests flocked to the restaurant.
Some customers ordered rose ice jelly, drank the jelly while standing and then left; some customers waited and waited, but never got a seat, so they had to leave disappointed.
Feng Yuanning was very busy and finally found a chance to take a short break on the sofa and take a look at the data in the system.
Hotel upgrade conditions: The restaurant has served a total of 174/3000 people and completed 0/3 of the tasks.
Mission: Sell 43/100 servings of boiled fish fillets to guests to unlock the hotel's special effect "Four Seasons Like Spring".
The "Ice Spring and Hot Spring" themed courtyard has helped 2 out of 50 people break through the realm.
Feng Yuanning couldn't help but be a little surprised. Two people broke through in the backyard so quickly?
She originally thought that this courtyard unlocking mission should be quite difficult, and breaking through the realm is not something that can be achieved just by wanting to.
Unexpectedly, this task made progress so quickly.
