"Mm-hmm, yes, that's what it's like." Xue Ling's voice was as soft and sticky as a child's, as if she were coquettishly coaxing.
"Xue Ling, thank you for giving me a new life. Is this space inside my jade pendant? What is its purpose?"
"I don't know the specific functions; I only appeared and activated the space because of your blood. You have to explore and discover its purposes yourself.
But I know that you can store things in here, and you can also plant things on that ground over there.
That well is called the Spirit Spring, and its water not only accelerates the growth of crops when used for irrigation but also has the effects of strengthening the body, refreshing the mind, and speeding up the healing of wounds.
However, for everything else, you, the owner, need to find them yourself. You must work hard.
By the way, weren't you a doctor in your previous life? The time in this space is faster than the outside world, so you can look for or buy some medicinal seeds to plant.
These seeds will grow quickly, but since my spiritual power is not enough, I could only bring a set of surgical tools when I brought you here.
Now I will give you this set of surgical tools, and I hope you can live a good life in this world." Xue Ling handed the surgical kit to Qin Xue.
Qin Xue held the surgical tools, filled with mixed emotions.
Thinking of her grandparents, her best friends Yingying and Chenchen, those were the things she couldn't let go of in her previous life.
There was nothing else that made her linger.
In her previous life, her mother died early, and her father remarried, causing Qin Xue to not believe in love and never wanting to get married, so she never agreed to any suitors.
Her grandparents even tried to arrange blind dates for her, but she always found excuses to refuse. Qin Xue remained single for 24 years until a car accident brought her back to the 1980s.
Not only did she get married here, but she also had a child, bypassing the marriage that Qin Xue had been resisting.
She just hoped this marriage wouldn't disappoint her.
Now Qin Xue didn't want to be a doctor with these surgical tools, and she knew the original owner did not have a high education or any influence.
She was afraid that if she showed off any of these skills, people would look down on her, or worse, she'd be arrested for spying or captured for research. So unless absolutely necessary, she mustn't let anyone know about her skills.
"Xue Ling, I don't want to take these surgical tools out right now. Is there a place you can put them in here? Can you keep them for me and give them to me when I need them?" Qin Xue handed the tools back to Xue Ling.
"Master, yes, that bamboo house can store them. You can put the tools wherever you like since only you can enter this place for now." Xue Ling pointed to the bamboo house as she spoke.
"So you mean I can do whatever I like with that bamboo house?
Can I go in there now?" Last time Qin Xue came in, she thought it belonged to someone else.
She only glanced in, but didn't take a closer look. Now that she knew it was hers, she could explore freely.
Qin Xue carried Xue Ling and entered the bamboo house, which had two rooms and a living room. One room was a bedroom, the other a study.
The study contained a bookshelf with some books, a table, and a chair. There was a book on the table.
When Qin Xue picked it up, she discovered it was a guidebook to the space. It was created by an ancient cultivator and used as a storage tool.
At first, the cultivator's abilities were limited, so this space didn't have many functions, but as the cultivator became more powerful, they created better spaces and no longer needed this one.
However, because they couldn't bear to abandon it after accompanying them for so many years, they set a seal on it. Whoever was fated to unlock it would become its new owner.
The peach trees and bamboo grove inside had been transplanted one by one by the ancient cultivator.
The land was developed for fear of not being able to leave in a timely manner in case of special circumstances, so they could plant crops to be self-sufficient and not starve to death.
The acceleration of time was based on the rates of crop growth.
The cultivator also set a different space-time speed between the bamboo house and the land, meaning that the house and bamboo forest on the pebble-strewn side had a slower time flow, while the wilderness and peach grove on the other side had a faster time flow.
The role of the pebble-strewn path was to separate the space-time speeds. It was formed by merging another small space, creating a separate area. Both spaces shared the same entrance.
