The general's eldest daughter has a spatial ability
Chapter 74 Golden Lotus
Following Ling'er's guidance, Mo Liuyun arrived at the location of Jin Yuanbao. There was a crevice in the mountain wall, about the size of one person, where Jin Yuanbao was standing with its head held high, seemingly about to launch an attack.
Mo Liuyun looked in the direction of Jin Yuanbao and saw water flowing out from the mountain crevice, carrying a wisp of white mist. It seemed to smell the fragrance of lotus flowers, or perhaps a hint of medicinal herbs. In the slowly flowing stream, a swaying white snake tail could be vaguely seen, and it looked to be no smaller than Jin Yuanbao.
Because there was flowing water and white mist in the mountain crevice, Mo Liuyun couldn't see what was inside, so he had to ask Ling'er.
"Ling'er, you said Jin Yuanbao found something good? Can you find out what it is?" Mo Liuyun asked Ling'er.
“Master, there is a small pond over there, and in the pond grows a golden medicinal lotus that is a hundred years old. The medicinal lotus blooms once every fifty years and takes a hundred years to bear seeds. This one has already produced lotus seeds, and the entire medicinal lotus plant can be used as medicine.”
This golden medicinal lotus has different effects than the ordinary ones. The seeds can be used medicinally to heal bones and muscles, nourish yin and yang, while the flowers can be used medicinally to detoxify, beautify the skin, and maintain youth. The leaves can be used medicinally to clear the mind and improve eyesight, nourish blood, and calm the nerves. This extremely rare golden medicinal lotus is a rare find, a matter of fate. The owner can move it to their space and plant it in a mountain stream to accelerate its growth!” Ling’er happily suggested to Mo Liuyun.
Mo Liuyun nodded, but what should be done about the White Snake Lady? The book says that all spirit creatures have guardian spirit beasts. It would be a bit immoral to steal its treasure, but she couldn't bear to give it up.
“Master, you can put it into your space as well, so it can continue to guard this golden lotus. Also, it seems to be molting and injured. Your space can help it!” Ling’er’s voice came.
Mo Liuyun stopped hesitating and simply waved his hand to collect the snake and the medicinal lotus into his spatial storage. He then flashed into the space and planted the medicinal lotus in the stream.
He glanced again at the White Snake Lady who had come in with him. She was only slightly smaller than Jin Yuanbao. Her whole body was silver-white, like a piece of white jade. There was a wound on her abdomen, which looked like a wound left by a bird scratch.
The white snake's head had emerged from its old skin, weakly raising its head to survey the unfamiliar surroundings and the person before it with its cold, serpentine eyes.
Mo Liuyun poured the hemostatic powder onto the white snake's wound: "I don't know if you can understand, but you were injured, and I saved you. The medicinal lotus you were guarding is still there! Take good care of yourself, there are fish in the stream!" Mo Liuyun pointed to the medicinal lotus in the distance and the fish in the water, thinking to himself that this one probably didn't eat medicinal herbs.
But reality is cruel. Ling'er's voice rang out: "Master, this is a spirit dragon, but it is still young and currently in snake form. It is born to feed on medicinal herbs and is also the companion guardian beast of this medicinal lotus."
Mo Liuyun: Damn it, you really can't just pick up things from outside. Luckily, she has a lot of plants in her space, otherwise she really couldn't afford to raise them.
Mo Liuyun then asked Ling'er about the livestock breeding situation. Ling'er was also managing it, and the space automatically recycled the livestock and converted it into space currency. Fruits also became a fixed income. Now they finally lived a life where they could spend money as they pleased.
Speaking of money, Mo Liuyun suddenly realized that the valuables he had robbed from two families were still untouched in the basement storeroom. Upon entering the basement, he saw boxes everywhere, and shelves filled with antiques! With a thought, all the boxes automatically arranged themselves neatly, and the antique shelves were also placed against the wall.
Mo Liuyun took out an antique vase he had acquired and put it in the space shop. The shop actually offered a buyback price of 10,000 space coins!
Mo Liuyun: Damn it, how much money did this old man embezzle? He's made a fortune! With this spatial ability, he can have anything he wants!
However, Mo Liuyun still felt that these things should be sold and exchanged for silver notes circulating in the market, so he thought of the Treasure Pavilion.
I've been wanting to check out how items are auctioned and what kinds of items are available. I'll go check it out after I've taken care of things at home!
Mo Liuyun left the space and came to the cave. He left Jin Yuanbao some fruit and medicinal herbs, and also rewarded him with a fifty-year-old ginseng.
Back in his courtyard, he went back to sleep in his spatial dimension. But at midnight, the alarm clock rang, and Mo Liuyun opened his eyes again. Whose turn was it to work today?
I'm in a good mood today because I received the Golden Lotus, so I'll go distribute some wealth first; maybe I'll get some faith points. As usual, I head to the north of the city, to the slums.
This time, Mo Liuyun brought out a box of loose silver that he had collected from the Duke of Dingguo's family. The silver was about half a tael each, and each family could have three to four pieces. With winter approaching, they could buy some quilts and clothes.
Without further ado, Mo Liuyun started handing out silver coins from one end of the alley to the other. When he arrived at the house of the mother and son from last time, something seemed to have changed. The old lady was no longer staying up all night doing embroidery, but the boy was studying diligently at night!
Mo Liuyun tapped on the windowsill, left twenty taels of silver, and went to the next shop.
Hearing the noise, Chu Rong opened the window and heard something fall to the ground. She quickly opened the door and went out to check. In the moonlight, she saw two silver ingots on the ground, each weighing ten taels.
Chu Rong immediately knelt down, kowtowed three times to the outside of the door, and cupped his hands, saying, "Thank you, benefactor."
After Mo Liuyun finished robbing the last house, it's time to collect the goods. Whose house was it today? If we only steal from Qing Wang's house, will it have a negative impact on Qing Wang's opponents?
How about we try a different place today? Or maybe we should steal from the Prince of Pingnan? Or perhaps the Prince of Pingnan's maternal grandfather's house?
So Mo Liuyun appeared in the Mu family, the maternal grandfather's house of the Prince of Pingnan. Only when he arrived at the Mu family did he realize that this was the fox spirit's house. So he asked Ling'er to see where the fox spirit was.
Ling'er: "Master, your fox spirit is in the bedroom in the courtyard to the left, right now~"
Before Ling'er could finish speaking, Mo Liuyun blocked his connection with her. This little sprite has turned mischievous and knows how to tease her now, calling her a vixen.
When Mo Liuyun arrived at Nangong Li's room, the bed was empty. However, she overlooked the scene behind an almost transparent screen in the inner room. She was stunned the moment she stepped out of the space! What was going on? Ling'er didn't say it was like this!
What a beautiful picture of a handsome man bathing: Nangong Li was shirtless, leaning against the tub, his long, ink-black hair cascading down the side of the tub, his strong arms resting on the tub...
Fortunately, Mo Liuyun appeared on the side of the screen, with Nangong Li's back to her. Just from this scene, with only Nangong Li's back and profile, Mo Liuyun blushed and her heart raced. She even forgot to hide her presence.
Nangong Li sensed it the moment Mo Liuyun left the space, but he didn't turn around because the room suddenly had a strange yet familiar aura. Strange because the aura appeared suddenly and didn't belong to anyone in the room, and familiar because he smelled a faint floral fragrance mixed with the scent of medicine.
She's here. It seems the thefts at the Prince Qing's Mansion and the Duke Ding's Mansion were her doing. But how did she manage to take the items away? Is she here to find out his identity, or is she also here to steal treasure?
"Mu Yi, come in!" Nangong Li called out to An Yi.
The man outside the door was puzzled. Why was his master calling him Mu Yi? But he didn't ask any further questions and answered as he entered through the door: "Master, what are your orders?"
"Mu Yi, go tell Grandfather that there's no need to add more staff to the west courtyard's storeroom. Just leave it as normal. I believe that the thief must have done his research beforehand. Our Mu family doesn't have ill-gotten gains."
If this person wants to take it, consider it a distribution of wealth to the people.
The implication was that he was telling Mo Liuyun the location of the warehouse so she could go and take it, but he was also telling her that his family did not exploit the people for personal gain.
Mo Liuyun had already entered the space when Nangong Li called out to An Yi. She still heard the conversation after An Yi came in and nodded in her heart. Of course she knew that Duke Mu was not the kind of person who would exploit the people for money, but she had no choice but to come this time!
If the Guangqing King's faction was robbed, the blame would fall on the Qing King's rival, Nangong Li. In the end, Mo Liuyun appeared in the storeroom, took away several paintings of a maidservant by a master from the previous dynasty, and two hundred taels of silver. When he left, he deliberately made a mess of the storeroom to attract attention and make a commotion so that people would come to arrest him.
When Nangong Li heard someone report that the storeroom had been burglarized, he checked the contents and found that a portrait of a maid and two hundred taels of silver were missing. Just as he had suspected, there had been no arson; the items had simply been scattered to create the illusion of a theft! However, Nangong Li had his maternal grandfather move the items and report the theft to the Dali Temple.
Upon closer examination, he understood Mo Liuyun's intention: to ensure that everyone's favor was shared. Gu Ji would also visit the Prince of Pingnan's residence. Nangong Li instructed An Yi to send a message back to the Prince's residence, informing Qingyang that if the Prince's treasury was found to have been robbed, all valuables and belongings should be moved and the Dali Temple should be notified immediately. This was to create the illusion that thieves had only targeted the Prince's family, thus preventing him from becoming the target of public criticism!
