Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward
Chapter 38: Ten Thousand Years Lightning Struck Wood
Liu Jingxue estimated that her uncle and his family should have arrived home, so she called her uncle's office.
She didn't dare ask directly, after all, the phone was not safe.
The uncle kept complaining to her on the phone, saying that her eldest brother was disobedient, got angry with him about the transfer order, and quarreled with him for no reason.
Liu Jingxue understood as soon as she heard it, her uncle had already started to take action.
Later, Liu Jingxue understood from the implicit meaning of her uncle's words that there might be some unrest on her uncle's side, and she might not be able to call his office anymore.
Knowing that her uncle had already taken action, Liu Jingxue planned to call her aunt's office after some time to see how the progress was.
Ten days have passed outside, and Liu Jingxue has been practicing martial arts in this space for almost three years.
Since she had never fought against anyone, she didn't know how her current level would compare to others, but compared to herself, it was a piece of cake for her to deal with twenty of her former self before she practiced martial arts.
My uncle and the others have already started taking action, so I have to make arrangements quickly on my side as well.
Apart from anything else, it’s time to put the several treasures in Xinshi into the space.
After my uncle and the others left, I kept delaying any action because I was afraid that if I went to collect the treasure alone, I would not be able to protect myself.
Now that I am no longer a weakling, it is time to put the treasures into the space.
When should we start taking action?
These days, neighbor Grandma Li would come to the house every two or three days to check on the situation and ask Liu Jingxue if there was anything she could help with.
Calculating the time, even if she doesn't come tomorrow, she will come the day after tomorrow.
Then wait for her to come over, and then set out to collect all the three treasures outside.
As for the place under the yard, we will take action tonight to put the things into the space.
That night, when it was late at night and everyone was asleep outside, Liu Jingxue, at Tuanzi's reminder, ended her practice and slipped out of the space.
The entrance to the basement is located in my grandparents' room.
After arriving at her grandparents' room, Liu Jingxue lit a kerosene lamp, found the entrance mechanism to the secret room in her memory, and activated it.
After a roar, a dark hole appeared in a corner of the room.
Liu Jingxue walked over with an oil lamp, illuminated the entrance of the cave, and saw the stairs winding downwards.
Fearing that the basement would produce toxic substances due to long-term lack of ventilation, Liu Jingxue did not rush in. She only prepared to go down after more than ten or twenty minutes.
Tuanzi reminded, “Master, the brightness of your kerosene lamp is probably not enough.
Didn’t you prepare a flashlight? You should use that.”
Liu Jingxue slapped her forehead, wondering why she had forgotten to bring the flashlight.
I've been here for so long that I forgot all the good things I had stockpiled.
Besides not being bright enough, if there is any flammable or explosive gas inside this kerosene lamp and you go in with an open flame, and there is an explosion, you will be dead.
Thinking of this, Liu Jingxue hurriedly turned off the kerosene lamp and put it back to its original place.
With a thought, a flashlight appeared in his hand.
Holding a flashlight, Liu Jingxue walked down the stairs carefully.
The passage is not wide, and two people can walk side by side.
Liu Jingxue walked while talking to Tuanzi to give herself courage.
"Tuanzi, what do you think will be down there?"
Tuanzi was a little surprised. "Master, you have seen it in the original owner's memory before. There are only some big boxes below."
Liu Jingxue did not hide her plan, "I know there is a box inside.
I'm a little scared, so I want to talk to you to distract myself."
Tuanzi was a little confused, "Master, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Even if there is any danger, you can escape into space immediately and nothing can hurt you."
"What if that thing follows me into space?"
"Master, don't worry. Nothing can enter the space without your permission.
Even if it is right next to its owner, it can’t get in.”
"What about that thing without substance?" Liu Jingxue asked persistently.
"What do you mean by incorporeal thing? Master, are you talking about me?"
Liu Jingxue said, "I'm talking about ghosts, spirits, monsters and the like."
Tuanzi suddenly realized, "Master, didn't you say that spirits cannot be formed after the founding of this country?
Besides, as a cultivator, why would you be afraid of this?"
Liu Jianxue said unhappily, "Isn't it okay for people who became spirits before the founding of the People's Republic of China?
There is no difference between my cultivation and those who have not cultivated.
Now I am still only at the first level of Qi training, a little bit away from the second level.
And I haven't learned any skills or techniques.
The only ancient martial arts I have learned should not be able to deal with ghosts and monsters without a physical body. "
Tuanzi was a little speechless, "Master, don't you advocate believing in science? Why do you still believe in these things?
The space fell into my hands.
I also came to this time and space.
I even came into contact with the cultivation of immortals in novels.
Now you tell me that you believe in science, how credible do you think you are?”
Now Tuanzi really didn't know how to refute.
"Well, Master, I didn't think it through.
Please wait, I will go to the storeroom to see if there is anything to protect you or give you courage. "
When Liu Jingxue heard this, she immediately became alert and didn't want to wait there anymore, so she immediately slipped into the space.
"Tuanzi, is there something like a law in this space?"
Looking at his master who appeared in front of him and listening to her impatient questions, Tuanzi became even more speechless.
“There must be some magic weapons. After all, the first owner was an alchemist and lacked means of attack. It is only natural for him to have some magic weapons for self-defense.
But those things all consume spiritual energy, so you can't use them.
I have to look for some magic weapon that doesn't consume spiritual energy and can protect me from the things you're afraid of."
"Then go quickly."
After Liu Jingxue waited for a while, Tuanzi appeared in front of her again.
"Tuanzi, have you found it?"
"I found two."
Two things appeared in front of Liu Jingxue, a pair of bracelets and a wooden sign.
She reached out and picked it up.
"This bracelet is made of thousand-year-old peach wood. Peach wood can ward off evil spirits, and I think the owner knows that.
This was left by the second owner.
This wooden sign is made of wood that has been struck by lightning for thousands of years.
In order to refine a magic weapon, the first owner spent a lot of effort to find the Wande Lightning Wood.
Most of it was used to refine magic weapons, and only some scraps were left to make this wooden sign."
"Master, which one do you plan to use, or both?"
"In terms of effectiveness, which one is better for exorcising evil spirits, lightning-struck wood or peach wood?"
Tuanzi said without hesitation, "That must be lightning-struck wood.
Besides, after thousands or tens of thousands of years, even if the lightning-struck wood is weaker than the peach wood, it will be stronger than the peach wood with the bonus of time.
What’s more, it is now a thousand-year-old peach wood and a ten-thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood.”
“Then I’ll use this wooden sign.
I will be going to the countryside by then, and it will be inconvenient to work with the bracelet on my hand.
The wooden sign is hung around my neck, so no one can see it.”
"Good master.
I will now weave a string for you using the spider silk that has lasted for thousands of years, and put it on you."
“The spider silk is ten thousand years old and is impervious to water and fire. It is impossible for it to break. Unless you observe it carefully, you cannot see it with the naked eye.
That way, no one else will know you have something around your neck.”
With the ten thousand year old lightning-struck wooden sign hanging around her neck, Liu Jingxue flashed out of the space and reappeared on the stairs outside.
With the treasure protecting her, Liu Jingxue felt not so scared anymore.
