Falling in Love Online with an Ancient General - Chapter 243
[Yuechuan: Tomorrow, when Master Guang’an returns, you should inform him of this matter. He will help you find him.]
[Qingyi: Really?]
Feng Qingyi was somewhat skeptical of Qin Yuchuan’s confident response.
[Yuechuan: After you told me about him earlier, I specifically sent someone to investigate and obtained some information. He and Guang’an have known each other since they were young, they have close connections, and he has some abilities. There’s no need to worry.]
[Qingyi: I hope so! Is there something wrong with our space-time transfer array? I had no problem bringing Linghe over, but there was an issue with him. It seems a bit unreasonable.]
[Yuechuan: The Xu Linghe you mentioned is like me, belonging to the same world. Of course, there wouldn’t be any problems bringing her. But that Qian Jue is not from our world, so it can’t be compared in the same way.]
[Qingyi: How do you know that?]
[Yuechuan: It’s written in the precautions for the space-time transfer array. The array can only connect two worlds, and people who don’t belong to these two worlds will be transported to an unknown space.]
[Qingyi: … Why don’t I have any precautions here?]
[Yuechuan: There should be, just not very obvious.]
Feng Qingyi opened the space-time transfer array app and looked again, finally seeing a small line of text on the third page, which indeed said exactly what he had just told her.
She had always thought this app only had one interface, where you could enter the address and activate it. Who knew it could be flipped through, with the second page being blank.
[Qingyi: … I see it now. This unknown space won’t be dangerous, will it?]
[Yuechuan: It shouldn’t be, in theory.]
[Qingyi: I hope so.]
[Yuechuan: Get some rest early today. Tomorrow when you see Master Guang’an, everything will become clear.]
[Qingyi: Mm, I understand.]
[Yuechuan: Good night.]
Feng Qingyi put down her phone, and Xu Linghe walked out wearing pajamas.
Feng Qingyi looked at the clothes she was wearing and found it somewhat amusing.
The pullover pajamas had somehow been worn as a shawl.
Feng Qingyi went over to help her put on the clothes properly. “Let’s go to sleep! If you don’t mind, we can sleep together.”
“Of course I don’t mind.” Xu Linghe quickly burrowed under the covers.
Feng Qingyi smiled and took an iPad from the table, finding a video app. “If you’re bored, you can watch this first. Swipe down to see the next video. I’m going to take a shower.”
Xu Linghe nodded, “Okay, I got it.”
When Feng Qingyi came out from her bath, she saw Xu Linghe crying her eyes out, which puzzled her.
“What’s wrong with you?”
Xu Linghe pointed at the iPad, “This little dog is so pitiful. It was abandoned by its owner and kept waiting for its owner to return. It waited its whole life but the owner never came back to find it.”
Feng Qingyi took out a tissue and wiped Xu Linghe’s tears. “There, there, don’t cry. These are all fake, just acting.”
“Really?” Xu Linghe asked.
“What you saw was all performed. Come on, stop crying now. We need to get up early tomorrow to go to Guanyuan Temple to find the Master.”
The bedroom light was turned off, and the room fell into darkness.
Xu Linghe moved closer to Feng Qingyi, “Qingyi, I can’t sleep. Do you want to tell me about your world?”
“What do you want to hear?” Feng Qingyi asked.
Xu Linghe: “Anything is fine, just tell me whatever.”
Seeing her so eager, Feng Qingyi casually told her some interesting things.
To her surprise, Xu Linghe became more and more excited as she listened, constantly asking questions. Feng Qingyi eventually fell asleep, unable to keep up, and only then did Xu Linghe stop.
Early the next morning, Feng Qingyi woke Xu Linghe up. After they had washed and dressed, they returned to Guanyuan Temple.
As soon as they arrived at Guanyuan Temple, a monk at the gate brought them breakfast.
“Benefactors, the Abbot has returned now. After you finish your breakfast, just follow this path straight to the end, and you’ll be able to see him.”
Feng Qingyi: “Thank you, Master.”
Upon learning that Master Guang’an had returned to the temple, Feng Qingyi didn’t even bother with breakfast.
“Linghe, you stay here and eat. I’ll go find Master Guang’an first and come back soon.”
Seeing her running so fast, Xu Linghe called out, “Slow down, don’t fall!”
“I know!”
Arriving at Master Guang’an’s courtyard, Feng Qingyi slowly walked up the steps and knocked on the door.
“Come in!”
Hearing the voice, Feng Qingyi gently pushed the door open and entered.
Guang’an, draped in a kasaya, was sitting in a chair.
“What brings the benefactor here today?” Guang’an’s face was expressionless.
Feng Qingyi got straight to the point, “Master, you should know Qian Jue, right?”
“This old monk was acquainted with him in our youth, so of course I know him,” Guang’an said slowly.
Feng Qingyi: “I’ve come this time because of him. He asked me to take him to my world, but I don’t know where I transported him. I hope the Master can help bring him back.”
“This old monk is already aware of this matter and will certainly bring him back,” Guang’an said.
Feng Qingyi: “I also want to know why I received such a phone that can connect to other worlds, and who created this space-time transfer array?”
Guang’an: “If the benefactor wishes to know the whole story, wait until he returns. Come together, and this old monk will reveal everything. However, the time is not yet ripe, so the benefactor should leave early.”
Since Guang’an was unwilling to disclose, Feng Qingyi didn’t want to press further. She only asked about Qian Jue again, “Then, will Qian Jue be alright?”
“The benefactor need not worry. He is safe now and will return within three days,” Guang’an said.
Having received a definite answer, Feng Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he could come back.
“Then thank you, Master. I’ll take my leave now.”
Guang’an watched the retreating figure and fell into deep thought, hoping that this time, everything could get back on track.
In an unknown region.
Qian Jue was alone by a river, trying to catch fish. He had been here for a day and a night, and now he was starving.
He had finally found a river and wanted to catch some fish, but the fish in this river seemed to have become spirits. He had been trying for an hour and hadn’t caught anything.
He didn’t know what that little girl had done, bringing him to this godforsaken place. It was even questionable whether he could go back.
“You seem to be living quite a leisurely life here!”
Qian Jue saw it was Guang’an, “How did you come here?”
“A little girl found me, said she lost you, and asked me to rescue you. I see you’re quite enjoying yourself here, not needing my rescue at all,” Guang’an said.
Qian Jue: “At least that girl has some conscience. Do you know where this place is?”
“This is a space-time rift. Because the world she’s in doesn’t accept your entry, you’ve been stuck in this space-time rift,” Guang’an explained.
Qian Jue: “If it’s a space-time rift, how can you enter?”
