Chapter 12 Awakening
Li Ling rushed over and laughed with Xia Zhizhi for a while, and both of their braids were torn apart.
But it was not a big problem. Li Ling was a woman who always carried a comb and a small mirror with her. They both combed their hair again, tidied their clothes, and each of them drank from a small bottle of soda.
"Zhizhi, I think you have changed a lot recently." Li Ling sighed as she looked at Xia Zhizhi's rosy face.
"Become more beautiful?" Xia Zhizhi held the drink bottle and tumbled. She had been eating and drinking well and looking good recently. Wouldn't she become more beautiful?
"Not only that, I didn't dare to talk to you before, for fear that I would accidentally say something that would upset you. Oh, you are not that kind of stingy person, that's not what I meant..." Li Ling's words were incoherent.
Xia Zhizhi used to be an introverted and sensitive girl. If Li Ling ate something delicious in front of her or shared some pretty hair patterns or clothes with her, she would probably have some thoughts in her mind. It was tiring to get along with such a person, so even though they were deskmates, Li Ling didn't play with her much.
"Okay, okay, I know what you mean. I've become optimistic and generous recently."
Li Ling pecked at the rice like a little chicken: "Yes, yes, yes!"
Xia Zhizhi put the empty bottle into her bag and was about to call Li Ling to continue shopping together.
Li Ling suddenly bent over and covered her stomach, shouting, "Ouch!"
"What's wrong?"
"My stomach hurts... I want... I want..." Li Ling stammered.
Xia Zhizhi showed an expression that said "I understand" and leaned over to ask in a low voice: "Are you having your period?"
Li Ling blushed: "No, I want to go to the toilet..."
Oh, I thought something was wrong. Xia Zhizhi took out a newspaper she bought this morning from her bag and handed it to her: "Use this to make do with it. Do you know where the toilet is? I'll go with you."
"I know, I know. I'll go by myself. You wait here for me." Li Ling grabbed the newspaper with one hand, covered her stomach, hunched her waist, and ran quickly with her legs tucked together.
I drank two bottles of soda this morning, and ate some plums, biscuits and other things, so it's normal for me to want to go to the toilet.
Guessing that she wouldn't be back for a while, and looking around to see if there was anyone around, Xia Zhizhi went back into the small house at the corner, knocked on the brick all around, and probed downwards with her mental power.
In her previous life, she possessed spiritual and wood abilities. In this life, because her body still needed to be recuperated, she was not in a hurry to develop her own abilities.
But she was a high-level psychic in her previous life. After traveling through two lives, her mental strength has become even stronger. Although she has not formally developed her psychic abilities now, she can still do a simple investigation.
But my body was too weak, and a simple examination caused beads of sweat to appear on my forehead.
Xia Zhizhi withdrew her mental power. She originally thought that there was a secret room under this house, but she didn't expect that the secret room did exist, but it was outside this house. This house was at the very edge of the garden, built next to the courtyard wall. She didn't know what that place was.
Forget it, I’ll wait for Li Ling to come back and ask.
Not long after, Li Ling came back, skipping and bounding. She continued to stroll around the garden with her. She pointed outside the wall and asked casually, "Lingling, what is that place over there?"
Li Ling is a little know-it-all. She came over and whispered to her, "It's the old site of the glass factory. It looks like they're going to build a worker building there, but the sugar factory and the stone factory are fighting over it, and they haven't reached an agreement yet. I guess they'll start building it once they've reached an agreement. Why do you think of asking about this?"
Her father is a guild official, so it's not surprising that he knows this information.
"Ah, I'm just a little curious when I see such a large area." Xia Zhizhi said perfunctorily.
Li Ling didn't care too much. After visiting the park, the two of them went to a nearby department store. Xia Zhizhi still had some money in her hand, but she had no tickets, so there were many things she could only look at but not buy.
The clothes here are better looking than those in the supply and marketing cooperative near her home, and the prices are about 10% more expensive.
Although Li Ling was pampered, she didn't have much money to spare, so the two of them walked around the counter several times, discussing what clothes and pants would go well with them, and enjoying the sight.
Finally, Li Ling bought a box of Grassland Hero Sisters biscuits. The box was very nice and could be used to store things after eating the biscuits.
After buying it, I immediately opened it and gave her a piece. After tasting it, Xia Zhizhi expressed her strong approval, saying that it had a strong milky flavor and was quite delicious. The price was also good, 1.5 yuan, and it came with a ticket for half a kilogram of pastries.
She didn't have any candy or biscuit coupons, and she had a few pounds of grain coupons left that she wanted to save for breakfast, so she didn't buy any food.
It wasn't a wasted trip; I picked out a pen and bought a few new notebooks, spending a total of RMB 2.6.
The two little sisters went home happily. Before parting, Li Ling asked her to play together the next day, but Xia Zhizhi declined.
Li Ling felt it was a pity and said that if she changed her mind, she could go to her house anytime tomorrow to look for her.
Xia Zhizhi was in a good mood today. She didn't act up when she got home and ate her meal quietly. I don't know why, but everyone felt relieved when they saw her return to the house.
She didn't bother to care what they were thinking, so she locked the door and entered the space.
Now that my body has recovered enough, I can try to activate my supernatural powers.
She first brined a large pot of pig's trotters and beef. She realized that awakening her superpowers would consume her body's energy, so she had to prepare something delicious to reward herself.
I have been restraining myself from eating too much meat and fish these past few days, for fear that I would feel uncomfortable if I suddenly ate too much. After a few days of rest, I can now show off.
He drank a large cup of spiritual spring water, took off his clothes and soaked in the hot spring, then began to activate his supernatural powers according to his experience in his previous life.
Two hours later, she slowly opened her eyes. She didn't know whether this body had no supernatural potential or because the rules of this world did not allow it, so she only activated her mental power. The reason for activating it was because her original mental power was vast enough.
Her mental power is much higher than the level before she traveled through time. Before her mental abilities were activated, she could only use them without restriction in space. If she used them recklessly outside, her body would not be able to bear the burden and she would easily cause irreversible damage to herself.
After activating her superpowers, not only can her physical fitness be improved, but as her superpower level increases, she can also use more mental power.
She waved her arms and did a few kicks, and felt herself stronger. If she practiced well, she would be able to... Xia Zhizhi smiled crookedly.
After practicing a set of physical exercises and working up a light sweat, she took a shower, put on some perfume, and tidied herself up.
Improving military strength is a long-term task, and it is better to do it too early than too late.
The previously salted pig's trotters and beef had been soaked for a while and were well-seasoned, so she took them out and started to eat them. The poor learn literature, while the rich learn martial arts. After some exercise, she felt hungry and needed to eat more meat to replenish her diet.
I don’t know if it’s because of the space, but the animals and plants inside are all particularly delicious, and they would be the best quality if they were taken outside.
The pig's trotters were soft and sticky, the beef shank was chewy and full of sauce. Xia Zhizhi licked her fingers while chewing, and only stopped after she had finished two pig's trotters and one piece of beef shank.
After all, it was too late and I couldn’t sleep after eating too much. I touched my stomach and ate some strawberry snacks. When I was full, I went to sleep.
