Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Opening the Space While Aunt Zou is cooking noodles...
While Aunt Zou is cooking noodles.
Zhao Mingsheng smashed the cucumber with the back of a knife, poured the prepared garlic sauce over it, and finally added the soul schizonepeta. A dish of schizonepeta mixed with cucumber was ready.
Aunt Zou's husband and son both worked in the county during the day and would not return to the village until the evening, so they had lunch together at Zhao's house.
Zhao Qingyue would provide lunch at the county school, but Zhao's father had not returned by noon, perhaps because Xing'an Hall was too busy.
Zhao Mingsheng didn't wait any longer. After setting the table for the dishes, he went to help Meng to the table to eat.
Pour the loofah, shrimp, and broth over the freshly cooked noodles, and the aroma is instantly delicious and makes your mouth water. The freshly rolled noodles are particularly chewy, and after being rinsed with cold water, they become slippery and I swallowed them before I even had a chance to chew them.
"Delicious!" Zhao Mingsheng exclaimed with satisfaction.
Paired with the refreshing and appetizing cucumber mixed with hyssop, it is simply a delicacy. When Zhao Mingsheng took his first bite of hyssop, he thought it tasted strange and pungent, but later on, it became more and more delicious, and he became more and more addicted to it.
It smells so good!
Although people had no appetite due to the hot weather, she still finished half a bowl of noodles and half a plate of cucumber mixed with hyssop.
Even so, Mrs. Meng still complained that she didn't eat enough. You know, this bowl is bigger than her face!
After dinner, Zhao Mingsheng helped Meng Shi to digest her food in the yard. Thinking of the strange things that happened in the morning, she asked, "Mom, where did you get the jade pendant you gave me this morning?"
Meng frowned and thought for a long time before she found it from a corner of her memory.
"I met you at a street stall when I was pregnant with you. Strangely enough, as soon as I put the jade pendant down, you started to make a fuss in my belly. As soon as I picked it up, you were fine again." When Meng recalled this, there was a loving smile on her face.
"This jade pendant is destined to be with you, so I bought it as a full-moon gift for you."
"It sounds weird." Zhao Mingsheng was about to tell his mother about the strange things that happened in the medicine field that morning, but he suddenly found that he couldn't say a word.
Zhao Mingsheng's eyes widened in surprise, causing Meng to be puzzled. "What's wrong?"
"I……"
After a few rounds of discussion, Zhao Mingsheng finally understood. Every time she wanted to tell others about the strangeness of the jade pendant, it was as if she was being silenced.
"I'm fine..."
Mrs. Meng thought she was just exhausted after being busy all morning, so she urged her to rest.
Zhao Mingsheng climbed onto the bed in a daze, using his hands and feet, and lay down with his clothes on. He took out the jade pendant tied around his neck and held it in his hand, his expression a little erratic.
This was too mysterious and she found it hard to accept it for a while.
She stared at the jade pendant carefully, but couldn't figure out what it was. It looked like an ordinary jade pendant...
Perhaps he was too tired after being busy all morning, Zhao Mingsheng fell asleep in a daze after lying down for a while.
I had another strange dream while I was sleeping.
After Zhao Mingsheng dreamed that she froze to death in a dilapidated temple, her family members far away in Qingshan Village were unaware of the situation and thought she was living well in the Hou Mansion.
Meng, who had not waited for her daughter, was depressed all day and could not survive the winter. Before her death, she took out the jade pendant and told Zhao's father to give it to his daughter.
Zhao's father found the Hou residence with the jade pendant, but was stopped by the gatekeeper. Unaware that his daughter had been driven out of the residence and frozen to death on the street, he assumed she didn't want to see him. Heartbroken, he gave the jade pendant to the gatekeeper and asked him to pass it on.
By chance, this jade pendant came into Zhao Mingzhu's hands. She thought the jade pendant was of good quality, so she kept it.
After an accidental injury, Zhao Mingzhu accidentally dropped blood on the jade pendant, which suddenly sparkled with golden light. Only then did she realize that the jade pendant was actually a treasure.
When worn, it keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer. There is also a small space inside the jade pendant that can store and retrieve objects at will, and a cup of spiritual spring water can gush out every day.
Zhao Mingzhu's skin becomes more and more delicate as she takes Lingquan every day, and her appearance becomes more and more beautiful. She can also use Lingquan to speed up the healing of injuries!
With the help of this jade pendant, she gradually gained a foothold in the circle of power and nobility in the capital.
Everything in this dream was too weird. Zhao Mingsheng's hands and feet were trembling after waking up. He quickly poured himself a cup of hot tea and took several sips before he recovered.
With the experience of the last dream, she believed this dream 80% before verifying it.
Zhao Mingsheng stared at the jade pendant in his hand, his eyes full of confusion. What kind of monster was this that could take things out of thin air and produce spiritual springs?
At this moment, besides being shocked, she was more worried and terrified.
People are always full of fear of unknown things.
It seemed as if there were two different voices in her mind, pulling at her.
One said, this thing has unknown origin and cannot be touched!
Another said, "This is originally yours! Besides, don't you want to cure your mother's illness? With this, you can cure your mother's illness!"
The voice was full of temptation. Zhao Mingsheng gradually let go of the fear in his heart, and there was more determination in his confused and helpless eyes.
She imitated what she had done in her dream, pierced her fingertip and dripped blood onto the jade pendant.
Suddenly the whole room was filled with golden light, which made Zhao Mingsheng unable to open his eyes.
When the golden light faded away, she suddenly found herself in an unknown place from the house, which seemed to be the space inside the jade pendant.
Zhao Mingsheng was so nervous that he froze and didn't dare to move. This hadn't happened to Zhao Mingzhu in his dream! Her space could only store and access inanimate objects, not even living things, let alone the space inside the jade pendant.
After a stalemate for a while, Zhao Mingsheng found that there was no danger and breathed a sigh of relief. Only then did he have time to look around.
There is soft grass under your feet and a large area of vacant farmland in the distance.
There is a pond not far away, and Zhao Mingsheng plans to go there first to take a look.
When I walked in, I found that this was the spiritual spring that Zhao Mingzhu drank every day!
The sparkling pool water is crystal clear, and the bottom is covered with colorful spiritual stones. There is also a spring bubbling out, which means it will never run dry.
But in her dream, the amount was only one cup a day, but when it came to her, it became a pool, and it kept flowing.
The sudden appearance of wealth made Zhao Mingsheng dizzy.
As for the spiritual field, Zhao Mingsheng planned to buy some seeds when the time comes. It would be a waste to leave such a large piece of land empty, so it would be better to plant something.
After checking the space, Zhao Mingsheng suddenly realized that she had been here for a long time and she had to go out. She silently said to herself, "I'm going out," but in the blink of an eye, she was back in her room.
She has been worried that if she disappeared for such a long time, her family would suddenly find that she was not in the room and would look for her everywhere. How would she explain it then?
But when she came out, she carefully discovered that the cup of hot tea she poured before entering the space was still steaming.
After concluding that the passage of time between space and reality was very slow or relatively paused, Zhao Mingsheng finally put down a big stone in his heart. It seemed that his previous worries were unnecessary.
She tried it, and with just a thought she could draw out the spiritual spring from the space.
There was a large vat in the kitchen that was used for cooking, and Zhao Mingsheng poured one-tenth of the water into it with spiritual spring water. She was afraid that if she used pure spiritual spring water directly, the average person's body would not be able to withstand it.
After thinking about it, she also filled the two large vats in the yard with spiritual spring water.
Compared with Zhao Mingzhu who only had a small cup of tea every day, the spiritual spring in her space was inexhaustible, so she naturally didn't need to be frugal.
If she remembered correctly, Zhao Mingzhu's spiritual spring had never been used by anyone else except herself for daily consumption.
Just as I was thinking about it, a woman's voice came from outside the yard, and she seemed to be deliberately pinching her throat to pretend to be weak.
"Is Doctor Zhao at home?"
