Chapter 24 Someone



"Hey, Bubble, why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known that I needed to pay ten taels of silver to unlock the space level, I wouldn't have spent all the silver."

Treasure hunting skills! This skill is much more valuable than martial arts points.

If I had known that I would need ten taels of silver to unlock the space level, I could have unlocked it by just being patient.

Unfortunately, I earned thirty taels of silver and spent it all on things. Now I only have a few copper coins left.

"Haha, didn't I forget that too?"

Bubble scratched his face with his paw, feeling a little regretful.

I was so busy that I forgot. Otherwise, I would have been running all over the mountain right now.

Lin Jiuyue was completely speechless.

Bubble, as the space manager, actually forgot such a big thing. Can I still rely on it in the future?

"Okay, okay, tell me if there are any other benefits I can get after the upgrade."

Bubbles shook her head.

"Besides the treasure-hunting ability, the space will be ten times larger..."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

Will the space area increase tenfold? The current space land area is about 50 square meters. If it increases tenfold, wouldn't it be 500 square meters? This is only about 0.75 acres, not even an acre!

The area is growing so slowly, what’s the point of having fun?

"Bubble, are you sure you're not kidding me?"

“No~”

Lin Jiuyue: ...

Never mind, it’s less than an acre, so it’s less than an acre.

I heard that land in Lijia Village was only selling for three taels of silver per mu this year. I'll just consider it a high price for some land.

"Master, you're not at a loss. Think about it, although you exchanged ten taels of silver for less than an acre of land, the yield of your acre is not on the same level as the yield of an acre outside."

"Besides, it's not just a matter of yield. Think about it, how many times do you have to harvest the crops this year? With just a few harvests, your investment will be back. If, like before, you encounter a bad crop, you can harvest twice and your investment will be back, and maybe even have some left over."

Lin Jiuyue thought about it carefully.

Although Bubble is a bit unreliable, I have to say that what he said does make some sense.

"That's right, but unfortunately we don't have any money now."

I happened to be in the mountains right now. If I could upgrade my space, I could unlock the treasure hunt function. Maybe it would help me find some precious medicinal herbs like Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng. Wouldn't that mean I could get back the ten taels of silver I spent?

Not only did it come back, but there was some left!

"Sister, let's go."

Lin Qiye patted the non-existent dirt on his hands.

Dendrobium officinale grows on stone walls without much soil.

There were still quite a few Dendrobium officinale plants growing on the rock wall, but they were too high up to be easily picked. Since they could be grown in the space anyway, they only needed to pick one or two. The brother and sister thought about it and gave up.

After packing up their things, the two walked towards the place where they had agreed to meet with Ji Liangchuan.

At this time, Ji Liangchuan should have returned.

Before reaching the agreed location, Lin Jiuyue took out the cart that was placed in the space.

The two of them had been in the space for quite some time, and after drinking the spiritual spring water, their strength had increased significantly. Even though the cart was loaded with a lot of things, it was like pushing a toy. They didn't feel tired at all.

"Sister, did you say Brother Ji is back? Has he found a place to stay? He..."

"Shh, don't make any noise, someone is..."

When Lin Qiye heard this, he immediately covered his mouth.

After a long while, Lin Qiye finally spoke.

"Sister, why didn't I hear anything? What did you hear?"

Lin Jiuyue slowed down his pace.

"There's someone ahead."

"Could it be that Brother Ji is back?"

Lin Jiuyue shook her head.

"No, judging from the sounds, there should be quite a few people here. If Ji Liangchuan came back, the noise wouldn't be so noisy."

Although Lin Qiye didn't hear any sound, he knew that Lin Jiuyue had no reason to lie to him.

What interested Lin Qiye was why Lin Jiuyue could hear sounds from such a far distance.

"Sister, can you hear sounds that far away now?"

When Lin Jiuyue heard this, she was also stunned.

Yes, why can I hear sounds from such a far distance? And also hear them so clearly?

Lin Jiuyue thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what was going on. In the end, she could only attribute the credit to the space.

"I don't know. Maybe it's the space."

Lin Qiye stopped talking after hearing this.

Since my sister has obtained such a miraculous thing as space, it doesn’t seem so difficult to accept that her hearing is different from that of ordinary people.

"So what do we do now? Should we keep going forward?"

Lin Jiuyue nodded.

"Let's go. It sounds like the village chief and his men. Let's go over and see what's going on."

When the three of them left the group, they said nothing. Normally, if nothing had happened on the official road, the village chief and his men wouldn't have taken the mountain road instead.

The two of them pushed the cart faster and soon arrived at the place where they had agreed to meet Ji Liangchuan.

Ji Liangchuan had not returned yet, but the village chief and the villagers had already rested here.

"Village chief? It's really you? Why did you change your route to take the mountain road?"

The village chief was relieved when he saw that the visitors were Lin Jiuyue and her brother.

I led some villagers to take a different route along the mountain road. All along the way, we followed the route that Lin Jiuyue and her siblings had taken. When we got here, we found that there was no road, so we thought of taking a break here and discussing with the villagers how to go next. Unexpectedly, Lin Jiuyue and her siblings were still here.

"September girl, are you still here?"

The village chief greeted Lin Jiuyue awkwardly, then continued.

"Didn't you go to the city today to get information? After listening to what you said, I felt something was amiss, so I took the villagers and walked along the mountain road with you."

Lin Jiuyue: ...

"September girl, you won't blame me for not discussing it with you, right?"

Discuss? I've already left. If the village chief wants to discuss it with me, he needs to find someone. Besides, this mountain road is not mine. If I can walk on it, the village chief and others can walk on it too. It's impossible to stop them from walking, right?

Fortunately, Lin Dongming and his family did not follow the village chief on the mountain road, otherwise he would have felt a little uncomfortable.

"Village chief, what are you talking about? This mountain road is not mine, of course you can walk on it."

The village chief was relieved to see that Lin Jiuyue had no intention of blaming him.

I don't know why, but I always feel that Jiu Yue has become different since she hit her head.

Although this girl looked smart before, she was not as brave as she is now and had no opinions of her own.

And now, this girl, without any food, had managed to escape famine with her brother without starving. She had heard some news in the city and decisively chosen to take the mountain road. Even she could not match her decisiveness.
