Chapter 15 Stocking up. Treasures in the Space
Chu An kept shopping until the wholesale market, where he took a break at midnight. He finished his purchases after filling six large cardboard boxes that were half a person's height. He spent a total of yuan.
She lied that there was someone waiting for her at the back alley and asked the store owner to help her move to the alley.
After the shop owner left, he put the box into the space while no one was around.
Gurgle...
Even though she could bear the hunger, her stomach growled honestly. She walked over to a street vendor selling fried skewers and grilled cold noodles with green eyes.
The boss is a thin and dark uncle.
"Boss, 30 servings of deluxe grilled cold noodles, 50 skewers of each type of fried skewers, no restrictions."
"Little girl, can you eat it?"
"Give me some cold noodles first, and pack up the rest."
The boss smiled happily and took out a folding chair from behind and handed it to her. This was almost all the money he had left for the day, so he could finish work early and go home to be with his wife and children.
Two minutes later, the boss gave her a serving of steaming hot grilled cold noodles and apologized, saying that there were not enough 50 skewers of gluten, grilled sausage and fish balls.
Chu An had already stuffed a big bite in and said vaguely that it didn't matter, it was whatever he could take.
The boss was also a very particular person. He didn't charge for the items that were out of stock. He fried the remaining fifty or so skewers of some items for her and didn't ask for more. In total, she spent 2,100 yuan.
After eating and drinking, I thanked the boss, hailed a taxi, and arrived home at two o'clock in the morning.
I brushed my teeth, washed my face, changed into pajamas, and set an alarm for three hours. Fifteen days was a bit tight, so I could only do my best.
I lay on the bed and fell asleep almost as soon as the pillow touched me.
In the dream, I entered a space where there was no wind and the perceived temperature was around 25 degrees. Although I couldn't see the sun, the light was sufficient and very comfortable.
She first walked to the stream, scooped up some water and drank a few sips. It was icy and cool, and after it went down her throat, she felt comfortable all over. Her main body could not enter the space, and she didn't know whether she had drunk the water or not.
I saw in the news before that there was an uncle abroad who could stay energetic without sleeping and could work two full-time jobs and two part-time jobs every day.
She was quite envious at that time, but now she can do it too. She lives outside during the day and lives in the space when she falls asleep.
After resting for a while, we couldn't get out anyway, so we decided to go explore the mountain. We walked along the stream for more than 40 minutes and arrived about one kilometer near the mountain.
From a closer look, it was a U-shaped mountain range, low on the left and high on the right. She was standing right at the mouth of the U.
Looking to the left, the green trees in the distance overlap and merge into a green ocean, with the boundary hidden in the mist; the ground nearby is like a layer of emerald green velvet carpet, dotted with various wild flowers, making people want to roll around on it.
Looking to the right, there is a relatively bald rocky mountain with staggered peaks and jagged rocks. The highest peak is hidden in the clouds. There is also a cliff, and a golden red maple forest can be vaguely seen on the top of the cliff. I wonder if it is the same as the one in front of the warehouse.
On the U-shaped connecting line, the white snow has been frozen for thousands of years, and the whole line looks like a silver dragon spanning the sky, with beautiful scenery above its head and towering ravines under its feet.
She could sense all places in the space through mental connection, except this mountain.
She continued walking along the stream and found a pool of water connected to the stream.
The pool is located at the mouth of the U, about two meters deep, and the water is clear. The bottom of the pool is connected to the hollow of the mountain, and the running water flows out from the hollow. It is not clear inside.
This space is really amazing. Not only does it have three time forms, but there are also four seasons of spring, summer, autumn and winter on the mountain.
She observed the pool for a while and realized that she couldn't climb up the rocky mountain on the right, so she walked towards the green forest on the left and first stepped onto a large gentle slope.
The gentle slope is lush and green, with dandelions, jade dragon grass, bone-penetrating grass, and golden silk grass growing in an interlaced manner, and there are also many shrubs and mosses.
Looking at the lush green scenery, my mood became much happier. I picked a golden boiling grass, twisted it on my fingertips, and hummed a school song.
The sun shines in the sky, the flowers smile at me, the birds say good morning good morning…
Since the space is hers, what you see is what you get.
There were pine trees, fir trees, camphor trees, and many others she didn't recognize. Occasionally, she could see a patch of jujube trees, with inconspicuous jujube flowers in bloom. If it weren't for the fragrance of the jujube flowers that caught her nose, she would have had a hard time finding them.
As I approached the jujube tree, I saw green jujubes the size of fingernails, and I instantly thought of dozens of ways to eat them.
Stop drooling and continue to go deeper. You won’t know until you see it. You will be shocked when you see it. Everything you see is a treasure.
Xanthium sibiricum, mugwort, plantain, honeysuckle and dandelion...is that Polygonum multiflorum in the cracks of the rocks?
He rushed over in two steps and squatted down carefully. Due to the lack of tools, he could only use his hands to dig through some rotten leaves and soil.
My God, it really is. Judging from the exposed roots, it weighs at least 20 kilograms.
She wanted to bring the Polygonum multiflorum out, but her claws were not strong enough. She covered the soil again and looked around vigilantly.
Uh...it seems like she is the only one who can come in here!!!
The brain is not as fast as the eyes, and the attention has been attracted by another little red flower.
Oh, isn’t this Sanqi?
Oh, isn’t that Chonglou?
I silently gave a thumbs up to the space, and when I lie down later, I will take a good look at the mountain.
She was woken up by the alarm clock with a weird smile on her face.
It took a while for my mind to return to reality from the mountain full of treasures. I rubbed my face and felt refreshed, not like I had slept for three hours.
It seems that it is just as she thought, life in the space will not have any impact on the body, and even makes her energetic.
Pick up your phone and check the time.
May 23, 2050, 5:40.
I got out of bed, washed, and dressed. I fried an egg and ate it with bread slices, which was very satisfying.
After eating, we packed our luggage. We only had a few sets of clothes, so it was easy to pack. The suitcase was the one that Lao Chu bought ten years ago. Two of the four wheels were broken, but it could still be pulled along.
I dug out a cardboard box and two snakeskin bags at home and packed the big items like pots, pans, pillows, quilts and blankets. I will put the other furniture away when I leave completely.
After doing all this, I remembered that my bicycle was still at school, so I could only walk two kilometers to the suburban station today.
She was very reluctant to go to school, but she had to sign and find a reason to take a long leave.
The absence from classes these days has angered Manta, and if things go wrong she will report it to the security director, and someone will visit the home the next day. This is a system that was introduced after a student went missing in the No. 2 Relay Middle School. It is done firstly for the students' safety, and secondly to punish students who miss classes without reason. Students who miss classes three times will be punished and their admission qualification will be revoked.
She was not afraid of being punished, but was afraid of being targeted. She put on her schoolbag and rushed to the station. While waiting for the bus, she thought about the reason for asking for leave. During the stockpiling period, she must keep a low profile and not let anyone suspect her behavior.
Before she could think of a reasonable excuse, a Wuling car stopped in front of her. The window rolled down, revealing Li Qing's handsome face with a cigarette in his mouth. "Let's go, Brother Qing will take you to school."
Chu An looked into the car and found that some of Li Qing's men made her uncomfortable, so she tried to avoid seeing them.
"Jinli, Gangzi." Li Qing saw her thoughts and explained, "I'm sending Gangzi to the auto repair shop, so I can take you with me."
She didn't mind either of them, so she took off her schoolbag. At the same time, the car door was opened by Jinli, "Sister An, get in the car."
Chu An smiled back and sat in the seat Gangzi had vacated for him, "Thank you, Brother Gangzi."
"Yeah." Gangzi responded with no expression on his face. Then he lowered his head habitually, without playing with his phone, and just sat there.
