Chapter 4 Space



Xu Lai is only twenty years old this year, which is the age when she likes beautiful things.

Upon seeing the exquisite bracelet in her hand, she couldn't resist picking it up and immediately putting it on her left wrist.

Xu Lai admired the exquisitely crafted bracelet on her wrist while feeling the warm, smooth texture of the jade.

Just as she was completely absorbed in the moment, Xu Lai suddenly realized that her surroundings had changed.

She was no longer in her old room, but in an open space shrouded in bluish smoke.

Xu Lai, suppressing his curiosity, walked around the open space, which was about six acres in size.

At the very front of the open space, there is an old-fashioned hand pump well, like the kind that's used in front of old houses.

Xu Lai walked to the well, reached out and grasped the handle, and pressed it a few times. Clear water flowed out of the well's outlet.

Xu Lai bent down, reached out and scooped up a handful of water, put it to her lips and tasted it; it was refreshing and sweet.

In front of the well is a house about four meters high with gray-white walls on all four sides and the roof.

Xu Lai walked to the double wooden doors of the house, pushed them open with all her might, and bravely went inside.

There was nothing inside the house.

Xu Lai walked around the house, following all four walls.

Based on her own pace, she roughly estimated that the house was about fifty meters long and twenty meters wide, which meant that the area was about a thousand square meters.

What kind of house is 1,000 square meters?

Xu Lai thought of the space-themed novels she read when she was bored at school, which included space warehouses, space land, and space water, etc.

Could the place she's in right now be some kind of spatial dimension? This is too surreal!

"Lai Lai, Little Lai, where are you?"

Xu Lai was still recalling information about space from the space-themed novels she had read when her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a voice filled with anxiety and fear.

Oh no, she probably suddenly entered the spatial dimension, and her family outside the dimension are looking for her because she disappeared in front of them for no reason.

So she imitated the way the female protagonist in the novel manipulated space, and used her mind to shout "Out of space".

Sure enough, when she blinked again, she found herself sitting on the bed in the room, while her second uncle, parents, and younger brother were searching for her everywhere in the room.

Xu Lai first glanced at her left wrist, and sure enough, the bracelet she had just put on had disappeared.

It seems that this space was indeed brought about by Great-Grandma's bracelet.

"Second Uncle, Mom and Dad, Xiao Chao!"

Xu Jiangming, Xu Haiguo, Song Qiu'e, and Xu Chao all turned around when they heard the sound, and saw Xu Lai, who had disappeared, sitting on the bed in the same spot as before she disappeared.

"What just happened? Lai Lai, how did you suddenly disappear?"

Even though Xu Jiangming had been on the battlefield in his youth and experienced some things in the Kunlun Mountains that science could not explain, he could not hide his fear when he saw his eldest granddaughter who had suddenly disappeared and then reappeared.

It's really too eerie to suddenly disappear and then reappear right in front of you!

Xu Lai saw that, apart from her second great-uncle who looked terrified, her parents and younger brother were also looking at her with fear.

She immediately put her legs off the bed and gestured for her second uncle, parents, and younger brother to sit on the edge of the bed.

Then he quietly told them about the "space".

"What? Space? Sis, you're kidding, right? This is unbelievable!"

Xu Chao was the first to react.

Xu Chao, who is in his third year of junior high school, has already been influenced by materialism and other worldviews, and he finds it hard to believe that his older sister has a space warehouse.

However, when he was under a lot of academic pressure, he did read novels about "space".

There's a saying: "Art originates from life, but transcends it."

Perhaps there really are lucky people in this world, like his sister, who possess space.

Thinking of this, the fear and disbelief on Xu Chao's face were replaced by surprise.

Now that the older sister has access to the space, it means that the large amount of supplies that their family is about to stockpile can be stored in the safest warehouse.

To put it another way, if the apocalypse comes, their whole family can hide in the sister's space and wait for the apocalyptic disaster to end. Wouldn't that be pretty cool?

"Sis, try putting the things into the space you mentioned!"

Hearing her brother's words, Xu Lai quickly reached for a bottle of purified water on the bedside table and mentally said, "Enter the space."

In an instant, the bottle of water in my hand actually disappeared into thin air.

Xu Lai used her consciousness to search the space and found that the bottle of water had been automatically placed into the house in the space.

It seems that the house was used as a warehouse.

Xu Jiangming, Xu Haiguo, and Song Qiu'e had never encountered the word "space" before. After watching Xu Lai's explanation and demonstration, their faces still showed nothing but fear and worry for Xu Lai.

"Second Uncle, Mom and Dad, don't worry. The place I went to after I disappeared was probably a place transformed from Great-Grandma's bracelet. To use a term from novels, it's called 'space'..."

Xu Lai spent a long time explaining the new space she had just acquired to her family, but seeing her younger brother's half-understanding and her second uncle and parents' completely clueless expressions, she sighed deeply.

"Sigh, I'd better just take everyone inside and give it a try!"

Xu Lai was worried that her second uncle and parents wouldn't understand the meaning of "space," and she also needed to test whether she could bring other people into the space.

So he reached out and embraced his second uncle, parents, and younger brother, and whispered in his mind, "Enter the space."

In the blink of an eye, she actually brought her family into the space.

"Sister, sister, you actually have a spatial ability, and you can even bring us into it!"

Xu Chao was the first to react upon entering the space. He saw the same space as his sister had just described and couldn't help but shout excitedly.

Xu Jiangming and Xu Haiguo, a married couple, were also stunned by the scene before them.

Xu Lai took the opportunity to show the four of them around the entire space.

Especially when Xu Jiangming and the other two saw the bottle of purified water that had disappeared from Xu Lai's hand in the space warehouse, they finally understood that this was the so-called space, and the three of them were also happy and excited.

"Great! With this space, it will be much easier and safer for Lai Lai to stockpile supplies!"

Xu Jiangming, who served in the army near the Kunlun Mountains for decades and transported supplies for the troops, is the most qualified to speak on this matter.

In the face of apocalyptic disaster, social order is in chaos. Even if they have stockpiled enough supplies, moving their location and transporting their coveted resources would be tantamount to suicide.

Now that their eldest granddaughter has such a large space, they can simply put their things into the space wherever they go and leave whenever they want.

How convenient and safe!

Moreover, the eldest granddaughter's space also has a well that can normally produce water.

They don't need to worry about drinking water.

Of course, the premise is that you can't tell anyone that your niece has a space.
